Reborn Pokémon: My childhood sweetheart is Xiaoguang.

"Hey, it's Miss Violet!"

Xiaozhi shouted in surprise, he had challenged the White Sandalwood Gym some time ago.

Violet smiled and nodded, her eyes sweeping over everyone:

"Xiaozhi, Axun, and Xiaoyun, long time no see."

She even remembered Axun's name, and it was obvious that Axun had challenged her gym before.

"By the way, why is Miss Violet here?" Ah Xun couldn't help but ask curiously.

"I'm the Duke of the Battle Castle. I come here often."

As Violet spoke, her eyes suddenly turned to the top of the French window, and her tone was somewhat teasing:

"Chaklo, don't you want to come down and say hello?"

boom!

"Ouch!"

There was a dull thud, followed by a cry of pain. A tall man in a suit fell from the top of the French window, rubbing his waist and grinning:

"Hey, why did you call me suddenly?!"

The man had the same dark complexion as Xiaogang, his hair was uniquely styled with colorful decorations, and his well-fitting suit did not conceal his capable aura at all.

"You are...Chakoro, the Haruka Gym Leader?"

Xiaoyun recognized him and raised her eyebrows in surprise.

"Oh? Mr. Inspector, you know me. It's an honor for me."

Chaklo immediately stopped crying out in pain, smiled and saluted, but in his heart he was madly complaining:

It’s over, he was recognized after all. He sneaked out to play, so it won’t affect the test results.

It's all Violet's fault. She must pay compensation.

Well...just punish her by making her your girlfriend!

"Chaklo, Violet, you're all here, long time no see!"

Hitlon walked forward and greeted him warmly.

"Hey, Citron."

Chaklo patted his shoulder and asked with a hint of meaning, "Hasn't your position as gym leader been reclaimed? Why are you still hanging around out there?"

Could it be that this guy was kicked out by his robot gym owner again?

Xitron's cheeks flushed slightly, and he explained with a stiff upper lip: "Isn't this the same as you? We're all going out to practice! We're working hard to better build the gym business!"

Chaklo rolled his eyes in his heart:

What are you talking about? We're just out for fun, aren't we? Why are you talking so seriously?

He caught a glimpse of Xiaoyun looking at him with a half-smile on his face, and immediately followed up on Xitron's words and shouted:

"That's right! It's all about cultivation, all for a better future for the alliance!"

It was Hitlon who reacted quickly.

"That's right, Master Chaklo."

Xiaoyun suddenly said, "Why not have a battle in the Battle Castle and complete the gym assessment at the same time?"

"Ah, now...now?"

Chaklo panicked instantly.

With so many people watching, wouldn’t it be so embarrassing if I failed the test?

"Hmm? Is it inconvenient?"

Xiao Yun tilted his head. He didn't really mean anything else. He just thought that Chaklo's dukedom title could help him level up and complete the gym assessment at the same time, which was really killing two birds with one stone.

Chaklo thought Xiaoyun was unhappy, and hurriedly made an excuse: "No, no! Isn't there a rule in the battle castle that only fights between people of the same rank? Our ranks are different, so we can't fight!"

"It doesn't matter. This is a promotion match and I can challenge a higher rank." Xiaoyun exposed his excuse with one sentence.

"Ah this..."

Chaklo was completely panicked, with cold sweat dripping down his cheeks.

Violet and Hitlon stood by with their arms folded and watched the show. After all, their assessments were completed, so they were the typical people who enjoyed watching the fun.

At this moment, a white glove was suddenly thrown in front of Xiaoyun.

"I will be your opponent!"

Xiaoyun turned around and saw a young girl standing not far away.

With loose golden curly hair, delicate earrings on her fair face, and dressed in a purple-black school uniform and long boots, she looks like a senior student from an aristocratic school, exuding the arrogance of an elite trainer.

"My name is Ayaka, and my title is Duke."

"You kid who's been spouting nonsense online, I'll protect Carlos's dignity!"

The person who came was the girl who fought against Alan in the original book. She was traveling nearby and saw the challenge information for the battle castle. She felt dissatisfied, so she came to keep the appointment.

"Duke?"

Xiaoyun raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes falling on the brooch on Xuanxiang's chest. The round bead in the center of the brooch was actually a key stone.

It seems that he is also an elite trainer who has mastered mega evolution. No wonder he can reach the Duke rank. It is not surprising.

He naturally wouldn't miss the challenge that was delivered to his door, so he immediately picked up the white gloves on the ground and agreed: "Okay."

Seeing that someone was helping him fight, Chaklo breathed a sigh of relief.

Carlos still has a lot of good people, and this girl is easy to get along with.

boom!boom!

The two threw Poké Balls at the same time, and dazzling white light exploded on both sides of the arena.

"Go, Absol! Take back the victory that belongs to Kalos!"

"Prepare for battle, Monarch Snake!"

The snow-white fur shines in the light, the gray-blue face is matched with the knife-shaped tail, and the sickle-shaped horn on the forehead is even cooler.

Disaster beast, Absol.

On the other side, an emerald green figure stood proudly, with its head held high with innate majesty, and a faint natural scent emanating from its body.

The royal Pokémon, Serpentar.

The Pokémon on both sides of the field looked at each other, and the air was instantly filled with a tense atmosphere of battle.

You are just a marquis. I will beat you till your teeth are all over the ground!

"Absol, a quick victory, let's show everyone that Kalos' trainers are never to be trifled with."

Ayaka took the lead in giving the order, pointing her arm towards the Monarch Snake: "Ambush the vital points!"

"Ab!"

Absol let out a short, low roar, and his figure instantly turned into a snow-white afterimage, with the scythe blade pointing directly at his vital points.

"Monarch Snake, Leaf Blade!"

Xiaoyun's commands were almost synchronized with Absol's movements.

The monarch snake's body tilted slightly, its eyes closely following the afterimage, and its tail suddenly glowed with emerald green light, like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath!

boom! !

The crisp sound of the collision shook the entire stadium. Even though Absol had a running start, the Monarch Snake did not move at all.

"Huh, it looks like you have some strength."

Ayaka gave a surprised but unyielding smile, and immediately changed her tactics:

"Jump up and use Whirlwind Blade!"

Absol leaped backwards and swung the sickle on its head. Several sharp wind blades transformed into sickle-weasels and shot towards the monarch snake.

"Use Leaf Storm!"

Xiaoyun's voice remained steady as he raised his hand and pressed lightly.

We've already sent out the Monarch Snake, what else is there to say? Just go all in with Leaf Storm and it's over.

The monarch snake swung its long tail, and emerald green energy gathered at the tip of its tail!

The next second, a powerful leaf storm gushed out, like a swirling green storm!

Boom boom boom!

The whirlwind blade collided with the flying leaf storm, the wind blade was swallowed by the storm, and the leaves were shaken and flew everywhere.

"Absol, don't give the opponent time to rest. Attack from the left and use the wave of evil!"

Ayaka stared at the Absol moving nimbly through the storm and shouted an order.

"Ab!"

Absol opened his mouth, and dark spiral energy condensed in his mouth, bursting out with a corrosive breath!

"Keep going, Leaf Storm!"

The monarch snake swung its long tail again, and the green storm wrapped in countless sharp blades swept across the field in an instant!

Boom boom boom!

Immediately afterwards, the evil wave was torn apart as soon as it touched the edge of the storm. Absol quickly dodged sideways, and its hair was swept by the leaves, leaving several scratches in an instant.

Watching the Leaf Storm grow in power instead of decreasing, Ayaka suddenly understood:

"He's a contrarian... no wonder he's so arrogant and domineering. It turns out he has some real strength."

She raised her eyes to look at Xiaoyun, her eyes more serious, but still with a bit of stubbornness: "The Kalos people are not that easy to bully!"

"Show your grace! Absol, Mega Evolve!!"

Ayaka also took off her brooch and shouted loudly.

In an instant, the light of bond connected her with Absol, and the moment the light burst, Absol's form suddenly changed.

The gray sickle on the top of the head became wide and sharp, and a small pointed horn quietly grew on the other side.

The snow-white hair all over the body becomes thicker and thicker, and the hair on the back is fluffy and exploded, like a pair of snow-white wings, adding a bit of elegance and dominance.

Mega Absol!

Ayaka looked at her evolved partner, her eyes full of confidence: "This is a Mega Evolution unique to Kalos. It has all-round benefits for Pokémon. Let's see how you block it next!"

"Mega evolution, then let's see if we can stop it."

Xiaoyun's eyes finally flickered with a wave of fluctuation: "Continue to use Leaf Storm!"

"hiss!"

The monarch snake's body glowed with a deeper green light, and countless leaves were spinning rapidly around it, ready to strike!

"Raid!"

As Ayaka finished speaking, Mega Absol transformed into a stream of black light and suddenly soared into the sky.

Although the wings on its back cannot allow it to fly, they greatly increase its jumping height and speed, allowing it to appear above the monarch snake's head almost instantly.

boom! !

A crisp collision sound was heard, and Absol's body slammed heavily into the Monarch Snake, directly interrupting the opening move of Leaf Storm.

"Don't even think about adding more!"

Xuanxiang raised the corner of her mouth, revealing an expression of confidence: "Continue to use sneak attacks on vital points!"

Mega Absol understood and shook his head slightly. The sickle horns on his head were immediately covered with a layer of dark energy, which slashed directly at the neck of the monarch snake.

"Dragon Wave!"

Xiaoyun reacted very quickly. He knew that Leaf Storm could not be cast instantly, but Dragon Wave could.

The two consecutive Leaf Storms just now really boosted the special attack.

Purple dragon-shaped energy condensed from the monarch snake's mouth and sprayed towards the sickle horn with majestic momentum.

Boom boom!

Mega Absol's sickle horn directly shattered the dragon's wave, scattering the energy.

It wasn't over yet. Absol looked down from above, swung his head sideways, and countless wind blades shot out from the corners of his sickle.

Whirlwind knife!

shhhhhh!

The wind blades hit the monarch snake densely, leaving many scars on its emerald green scales, and the monarch snake let out a painful hiss.

In the stands, Sanping's eyes were filled with amazement: "This Duchess is so strong that she actually suppressed Xiaoyun."

Violet shook her head slightly, her tone filled with relief. "Mega Absol, I didn't expect this kid to have such a trump card. He didn't even use it when challenging the gym."

Chaklo touched his chin, his eyes solemn: "This girl is really strong, Mr. Inspector will not lose, right?

"What are you talking about? This is just the beginning. How could Xiaoyun possibly lose?"

A Xun stood up suddenly.

This was the man who had beaten him so badly that he was at a loss. How could he lose here?

In the center of the arena, Ayaka's command sounded again:

"Absol, another sneak attack on the vital points!"

Mega Absol's figure flashed, and the sickle horns once again condensed dark energy, slashing at the monarch snake at close range.

"Dragon Wave!"

Xiaoyun still chose to fight back, but this time, Mega Absol was faster. Its sickle horn directly cut through the dragon-shaped energy and hit the Monarch Snake's side hard!

"Sigh~"

The monarch snake was knocked back and curled up in pain.

"The battle ends here!"

Xuanxiang was about to give the order to end the battle, but saw Xiaoyun slowly raised the bracelet on his wrist, and the crystal on it was emitting dazzling light.

"That's not possible."

"You have a Mega Evolution, so let me show you the battle system in other regions!"

He closed his eyes, and the aura around him gradually synchronized with the monarch snake, and the light on the Z bracelet became more and more intense.

"Z-Move - Green Shadow Thousand Snakes Strangling Formation!"

Different from normal Z moves, this is the gift that Serpenti received from the World Tree!

"hiss...!"

In an instant, a low hiss came from the mouth of the monarch snake.

The sound seemed to awaken the power of nature, and the natural aura around it turned into a visible emerald green halo.

hiss!

In the halo, countless emerald green phantom snakes appeared and disappeared, and each snake had the same majesty as the monarch snake.

As soon as these phantom snakes appeared, they rushed towards Mega Absol like a tide, forming an impenetrable green net in an instant, trapping it tightly in the center.

"Ab!"

Mega Absol struggled desperately, and its sickle horns kept slashing at the phantoms, but the snake shadows would immediately reorganize after breaking, and became tighter and tighter.

Phantom snakes attacked from all directions. Every collision consumed Absol's strength rapidly. Its snow-white fur was covered with scars, and the light of its super evolution began to dim.

"Stop it!"

Ayaka looked at her companions in dire straits, her heart clenched. She raised her hands and said in a trembling voice:

"I... give up!"

The moment the words fell, the green phantom snake suddenly dissipated, and Mega Absol fell to the ground exhausted. Its super evolved form also faded away, returning to its original appearance.

The outcome is decided!

Ayaka immediately rushed onto the field and hugged Absol in her arms: "Thank you for your hard work, Absol."

"The winner of this duel is Lord Marquis Xiaoyun!"

"Because he has achieved enough consecutive victories at the Marquis level, Marquis Xiaoyun will be officially promoted to Duke!"

After the maid made the announcement, housekeeper Karen came forward with a bright red duke's cloak and helped her put it on behind her.

It’s cold, put on more clothes.

Looking at the actions of housekeeper Karen, Xiaoyun inexplicably felt like ascending the throne right there.

At this time, there was a lot of discussion in the stands.

"It's the Duke! It's been ages since a new Duke trainer appeared in the Battle Castle!"

"This promotion is too fast. I saw him as a baron last week."

"Is that the last one from Alola's Z-Move? It looks like it's on par with a Mega Evolution!"

While listening to the people around him saying that Z moves are not inferior to Mega Evolutions, the owner of Z moves, Ajin, kept his eyes on Ayaka's brooch.

None of them know anything. The Z move can only be used once, and you have to use both hands to grab it!

He made up his mind that he must get a super evolution, but then he thought again.

Um, well, it seems he doesn't have a Pokémon that can mega evolve.
