Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

The owner of the Spike Hall walked slowly, walked around a thick stone pillar that two people could hug together, and came to a small door at the back.

He said leisurely:

"Nie Zi, did you know you have a second uncle?"

"Second uncle?" Nie Zi was full of doubts and shook his head. He had never heard of a second uncle. Judging from the name, he seemed to be his father's younger brother... But from the time he was born until now, he had never heard that his father had any younger brothers.

The spiked master lowered his head slightly, a smile appeared on his lips, and said:

"His name is Baika, and he is also one of Galar's Four Heavenly Kings..."

As he spoke, the small door at the back was twisted open, and a tightly wrapped man in black slowly walked out.

Baika slowly raised his head, revealing a pale face identical to Nie Zi's, and said with a faint smile:

"Hello, Nie Zi..."

Nie Zi was stunned and looked at his father.

The Spike Master extended his hand and briefly introduced the two parties:

"This is your second uncle, Baika. This is my son, Nie Zi."

Nie Zi felt an inexplicable aura from Bai Ka that made him feel uneasy. He couldn't help but lower his head timidly and greeted him timidly.

When Bai Ka saw that his nephew had a haggard face, a thin body, and was wearing a strange tight shirt and shorts... he couldn't help but glance at his brother strangely, wondering how his brother had educated Nie Zi over the years.

Why does this nephew look like he has kidney deficiency and is wearing gay clothes?

In the wilderness, in some chaotic areas, there are thin men wearing only tights, who try to seduce some big men with special fetishes.

The Spike Master didn't notice the strange look at all, and continued to speak:

"Alas... the group is getting more and more aggressive, and now there's a wild boy trying to take Nie Zi's place in the competition... I've missed you so much over the years, and I didn't know that my father would make that decision..."

Bai Ka forced a smile and continued to look Nie Zi up and down, shaking his head in disappointment.

This is not the appearance of a normal trainer. He probably won't be able to survive two days in the wilderness, or his Pokémon will be taken away from him, and then he will be kidnapped and sold somewhere.

But it just so happens that if Nie Zi has any potential, the purpose of this trip will not be achieved.

After seeing his brother's joke on TV, Baika rushed over from the southern wilderness.

As the younger brother of the gym owner, he should also have the right to inherit the gym. This gym tour might be a good opportunity... As long as the current gym owner suddenly dies before the championship game... The only son Nie Zi is participating in the gym tour and is also in the championship game. The alliance can only agree to let him "temporarily" take over as the gym owner...

Baika thought about it, looked at his hypocritical brother again, and made a decision in his heart. He then said to Nie Zi with a smile:

"Come... I'll teach you how to get familiar with a few Pokémon, and then take this miniature headset... If you really don't know how to do it later, I'll help you command..."

"Okay, second uncle!" Nie Zi took it happily and followed Bai Ka into the training ground.

......

Two hours later.

On the top floor of the Marokomon Group Building in Gongmen City, Roz sat in his office and turned on the TV that split and rose from the center of his desk.

Today was the beginning of the Galar Festival, and any media that could be used to broadcast gym challenges, whether it was television or radio, would be turned on. There was no need to tune in, as the official channels of the Alliance and the Group were directly displayed.

In Quanguan City, Jiqing City, and Zhanjing Town... all Pokémon Centers in various places started broadcasting the Gym Tour. Every household in the city, as long as there was a TV, would naturally sit on the sofa to watch it.

Even in the wilderness, there were black market traders roaming around, urgently selling radios and portable televisions.

At this time, Spike Town.

The group's exclusive TV station drove three black and green SUVs into Spike Town and headed for the Spike Gym under the watchful eyes of the well-prepared cheering team members on both sides of the road.

Two rows of cheering team members on the roadside, wearing the same black and red uniforms, were like a human fence, marking a clear path for the off-road vehicles.

If this is not done, if these vehicles stray into even one street or alley, the garbage on the ground in Sharp Nail Town will leak out.

The vehicle arrived at the Spike Gym, and two well-known hosts, a man and a woman, holding microphones, got out of the vehicle, followed by several big men with cameras on their shoulders.

When the director of photography made a gesture, all the camera equipment started up, and the two hosts smiled and said skillfully:

"Good morning everyone, I'm Lily."

"I'm Ryan."

"This is the official live broadcast of the Galar League. We will now introduce you to the first challenger of the gym challenge - Nie Zi from Spike Town. It is said that he is a trainer who loves rock music and is also the son of the Spike Gym Master."

"Then Nie Zi's first stop will be to fight his own father?"

"Yes, please look forward to this father-son showdown..."

As soon as the two finished speaking, the doors of the Spike Gym in front were pushed open by two members of the Shout Team, and Nie Zi was standing in the middle of the hall. The camera also shifted from the two hosts to Nie Zi.

On the TV screen, Nie Zi looked serious as he looked at his father in front of him.

This is the first battle of the Gym Tour Challenge, and he is also the first contestant in the Gym Challenge.

There was no way the TV station could chase him for a live broadcast, and this was the only battle that could make Spike Town famous...

Fortunately, he has an uncle...

Nie Zi tightly grasped the Poké Ball lent to him by Baika and followed his father into the battlefield.

The host and the camera followed Nie Zi closely.

After the Spike Gym Leader and Nie Zi stood on both sides, a member of the cheering team in gray stood at the referee's position, and the Spike Gym Leader shouted in a deep voice:

"Challenger, the rules of battle are..."

He finished speaking quickly and Nie Zi nodded in agreement.

On the TV screen, the portraits of Spike Gym Leader and Nie Zi also appeared on both sides, with a row of Poké Ball icons below them. The host's voiceover also sounded:

"The Spike Gym doesn't seem to have the special tests of a traditional gym. They start with a battle and get straight to the point. The battle rules are 6V6. The battle ends when one side surrenders or all members lose their ability to fight. Can Nie Zi defeat his father and get the gym badge? Stay tuned..."

As soon as he finished speaking, both sides on the battlefield threw out Poké Balls at the same time.

"Handkerchief bastard!"

"Tank Skunk!"

As soon as the two Pokémon arrived, they started to threaten each other with bared teeth.

"Both are actually Elite-level Pokémon!" The host couldn't help but exclaim. "In previous gym tours, because the challengers were all rookie trainers, gym leaders mostly used gym leader-level Pokémon as opponents. This time, both sides are actually Elite-level!"
