I, the first trainer of the new world

Lin Yang issued a total of 191 badges, losing to Rogal, Ash, Shinji, Guzma, and Nemo, but winning against Gladion.

Li Zheng issued a total of 181 badges, losing to Rogal, Ash, Shinji, Nemo, and Gladion. He only lost to two other people during that time.

Yan Kaifeng issued a total of 221 badges, losing to Rogal, Ash, Shinji, Guzma, Nemo, Gladion, and a few other well-known trainers, but winning all the other times.

Ning Yu issued a total of 209 badges. Like Yan Kaifeng, he only lost to Rocar, Ash, Shinji, Guzma, Nemo, Gladion, and a few other well-known trainers. He was undefeated the rest of the time.

Finally, there's Liu Hui. My wealthy brother Hui issued a total of 199 badges and only lost to Shinji. Even Rogal and Ash were taught a lesson. Shinji only won because he sent out his main team after being defeated by the neighbor. Ash and Rogal, those two silly turtles, were birds of a feather and decided to... one didn't send out Pikachu, the other didn't send out Volcarona, and even Worm didn't participate.

To this, Qianlin can only say that he deserved it.

Fortunately, the Alola League schedule was too tight, so the Gym Leaders wouldn't accept a second challenge from Trainers who had already earned the Badge. Otherwise, with Ash and Rogal's brains full of idiots, they probably wouldn't have stopped fighting until they won.

After listening to Zhenniao's report, Qianlin was also somewhat moved. Although the Rockets' ranking of strength was ridiculous, they did a good job in data collection and strength assessment.

If Chizuru needs it, he can even obtain all the battle records of all the gyms from their opening to the present from Shin-Tori.

Looking out the window, the carriage was now above another island, and there were many flying taxis and various rideable Pokémon on the ground, in the sky, and on the distant sea.

This must be one of the gyms in the Alola region; the energy fluctuations coming from below prove that a gym battle is currently taking place here.

To allow gym leaders to receive more battle requests, a temporary Pokémon Center has been set up next to each gym. There are not just one Nurse Joy, but as many as ten Nurse Joys providing healing together, helping gym leaders' Pokémon recover in the shortest possible time.

The flying taxi gradually landed on the public parking lot. Once the cabin was completely stable, Masahiro got up, opened the cabin door, and stepped out, standing respectfully to the side to wait.

Qianlin pulled Yike out of the carriage, looking at the various flying Pokémon taking off and landing around them, with a satisfied expression: "This is the standard that the regional league should have. That luck-based top 16 selection rule should have been eliminated long ago."

After the two stepped down, Masato led the way: "This is Liu Ruyan's Hao'ao Le Dojo. In order to take care of ordinary people, the dojo is not located directly in the cemetery, but it is not too far from the cemetery."

The person who thought of opening a dojo in a cemetery must be a genius, and Dr. Kukui, who listened to advice without any objection, must have hired a genius to help him.

Someone was waiting ahead, dressed in all black, exuding an indescribable coldness. He wore large sunglasses that made it difficult for Qianlin to see his face clearly. He stood up straight in front of Zhenniao, handed Zhenniao something that looked like an ID, saluted, and then the dog left with a haughty air.

Masahiro took the pass and handed it to Chizuru: "This is the audience admission pass, which allows you to bring up to three family members or friends."

Yi Ke watched the man in black, who looked so smug, disappear into the crowd, and tugged at Qian Lin's sleeve with a puzzled expression: "Isn't he hot?"

What's the weather like in Alola? This person is standing in the bright sun dressed entirely in black, wearing a black hat... Doesn't anyone think something's off about this person?

Yi Ke's eyes were full of curiosity.

Qianlin said earnestly, "The underlying code is like this."

The problem lies with Arceus.

Yi Ke instantly understood Qian Lin's meaning, immediately shut up, and silently held Qian Lin's hand without saying another word.

The real bird in front twitched its eye.

But to be honest, her eye twitched not because of the conversation between Qianlin and Yike, since in her opinion, the Team Rocket member's disguise was absolutely perfect! Her eye twitched because she felt that Yike didn't understand disguise at all.

How well those elite Rockets players disguised themselves.

Shin-tori glanced at Iko with a slightly arrogant look, then followed Chi-rin into the dojo without saying anything more.

After showing my ID to the guard at the entrance, I went straight in. After walking through the corridor, I arrived at the competition venue. Because it was a temporary venue, Alola's gyms are not multifunctional like gyms in other regions. The gyms here only have one function: battles.

It's basically an enlarged indoor battle arena, and the gym leader sleeps at the Pokémon Center next door every night.

Qianlin's feeling was correct; Liu Ruyan was indeed in battle. She was commanding a burly Gliscor, while her opponent was a somewhat flamboyant-looking middle-aged man whose Pokémon was an Eevee.

Then... Eevee was covered in poison and confusion.

Judging from the challenger's oxygen-deprived purple face, this was already the second Pokémon he had sent out.

The arena was far from quiet; instead, it was filled with cries of anguish, cheers, and expressions of existential doubt. Most of the trainers looked rather grim, suggesting they had participated in Liu Ruyan's gym battles. Some of the trainers seemed to have a particular interest in watching Liu Ruyan and Gliscor, their faces flushed with indescribable excitement.

Then there was a small group of trainers who remained completely calm, some even laughing out loud...

“They must be from Kanto.” As soon as she sat down, Iko pointed at the trainers with calm or even smiling expressions and said seriously.

This completely calm and even slightly amused demeanor clearly indicates that the trainer has been 'instructed' by Rika.

Sitting on the other side of the forest, Shin-chan's lips twitched, but he nodded helplessly: "Yes, there are a lot of Kanto trainers coming to Alola, and it seems to be related to... you."

Qianlin leaned back, his face filled with terror: "What does this have to do with me? They're not here to kill me, are they?"

“It shouldn’t be.” Makoto wanted to push up her glasses, but she wasn’t wearing them, so she could only brush a strand of hair from her forehead instead. “According to Team Rocket’s statistics, almost all the trainers from Kanto come here to catch Decidueye, and a small number of them want to find you and ask you about Substitute Poison… not just about dealing with Substitute Poison.”

In Kanto, everyone hates the substitute poisoner, but everyone also wants to learn how to be a substitute poisoner.

The ranking environment in Kanto's virtual battles is now completely rotten. It's all Venusaur, Muk, Butterfree, Tentacruel, and trainers from other regions using Skarmory, Vinegar, and the like.

Ever since Chihaya used a targeted strategy to defeat Rika's defensive team, Decidueye has become one of the most sought-after Pokémon by Kanto players.

I don't mean anything by it, I just want to set one up on a virtual battle platform and let those bastards who play the substitute-defense-poison game really feel the despair of being targeted!

Don't ask why we don't just buy the data from Devon, because those bastards have already started using this damn tactic offline!
