Reborn Pokémon: My childhood sweetheart is Xiaoguang.

As the cheers from the battle gradually subsided, the summer camp officially began.

Because the campsite was right next to a beach, Bratano decided to hold a fishing competition on the first day.

The trainers picked up their fishing rods and rushed to the beach with their buckets.

"We haven't gone fishing in a long time either."

"I hope to catch a beautiful Water-type Pokémon."

Xiao Guang and Xiao Yun joined in, skillfully assembling the fishing rods and forcefully casting the baited fishing lines into the distance, fully experiencing the joy of fishing.

Not far away, Citron was adjusting his modified smart fishing rod, his glasses gleaming with an inexplicable light: "This newly developed automatic sensing system can achieve precise capture, and I estimate it will yield a good catch."

As he was thinking, the fishing rod suddenly dipped downwards. Citron's face lit up with joy, and he gripped the rod handle tightly with both hands.

"It's taken the bait, and it's quite strong!"

A moment later, a goldfish flapping its body was pulled out of the water.

Xiaoyun stared in amazement: "Wow, Hitron, your fishing rod is pretty good! You caught one so quickly."

This is great news for anglers!

"This is the one I just upgraded; it includes..."

When asked about his expertise, Hitlon launched into a lengthy explanation.

Xiaoyun couldn't understand it either, so she decided to go fishing instead.

"Sitron has already made some gains, I can't fall behind!"

On the other side, Xiao Zhi rubbed his hands together, vigorously swung his fishing rod.

Not long after, the fishing rod suddenly dipped, and he jerked it up, pulling up a jab.

Xiao Zhi grinned: "Yeah, that's more like it. My fishing skills aren't bad either!"

Subsequently, the trainers around also made some catches, with Magikarp being the most, followed by Porygon, Lanternfish, and Manta Ray.

Xiao Guang also successfully caught a starfish.

Xiaoyun stared at the two medium-sized carp jumping around in her fish bucket and fell into deep thought.

Is he really not suited for fishing?

Just then, Yulijia's urgent shouts came from the side.

"Wow! It's so heavy! Brother, please help me!"

Suddenly, Yulijia's fishing rod was pulled into an astonishing arc. She gasped and staggered forward a few steps as the immense force pulled her in, almost causing her to fall into the sea.

"Don't panic, Yulijia, I'm here to help you!"

Upon hearing his sister's cry for help, Citron immediately dropped what he was holding and rushed over, grabbing Yulijia's arm tightly.

However, the underwater forces were so immense that even with their combined strength, they were still being dragged little by little towards the sea.

Seeing this, Xiao Guang and Xiao Yun hurriedly ran over to help.

Immediately afterwards, Ash, Serena, Dorothy, and other trainers gathered around, and together they held onto the fishing rod and Bonnie tightly.

Xiaoyun steadied the fishing rod while shouting:

"This force far exceeds that of ordinary fish, everyone give it your all, and don't let go!"

"What kind of big fish did we catch?!"

Clemont gritted his teeth, and Ash began to exert force, slowly turning and pulling together with the others.

The creatures beneath the surface struggled, stirring up waves.

Trainers nearby also gathered around, craning their necks to look curiously.

As the fishing line was slowly reeled in, a huge figure gradually emerged from the water.

"Oh my god! It's a Gyarados!!"

The trainers watching gasped in astonishment, their faces filled with disbelief.

You're so lucky to catch a Gyarados in this shallow water!

Yulijia stared at the enormous thing in front of her, stunned for a few seconds, then jumped up excitedly:

"Yay! I caught a Gyarados! That's so cool!"

"That's fine."

Citron shook his head. Well, it was a waste of his upgrade to the smart fishing rod.

Doroba smiled helplessly yet admiringly, "Compared to the one you caught, ours are indeed insignificant."

Tierno gave a thumbs up: "Cool, that's some amazing luck!"

Ultimately, although most trainers had good results, they all paled in comparison to Bonnie's Gyarados.

The appearance of Gyarados made the outcome of this fishing competition a foregone conclusion, leaving it far behind.

Even the Gyarados was a little confused by this exciting scene.

So these people aren't afraid of it at all? It has absolutely no influence.

On the second day of summer camp, academic classes began.

Bratano personally taught the class, mainly discussing knowledge about hyper-evolution.

Dr. Blatano, dressed in a neat white lab coat, held a laser pointer in his hand, and the structural diagram of the Mega Stone was clearly displayed on the projection screen behind him.

"The core of Mega Evolution lies in the bond between the trainer and the Pokémon, and the perfect resonance between the Mega Stone and the Key Stone..."

The trainers below the stage had various expressions.

Hitron and Shota handled it with ease, their eyes fixed intently on the screen, occasionally nodding in agreement.

Doroba, Shana, and Tyrannos also seemed to pay attention in class and were quite interested in the principles of Mega Evolution.

Ash and Serena were sitting in the back row, and they didn't seem to be in a good mood.

Ash rested his chin on his hands, initially managing to follow the professor's train of thought with some difficulty.

But as terms like "energy conversion" and "gene chain" kept appearing, his eyelids started to droop uncontrollably. He thought to himself, "The super evolution battles are so cool, why is the theoretical knowledge so convoluted?"

I don’t understand, I don’t understand at all.

His head bobbed little by little, and finally, Zzzzz.....

Serena, standing next to her, wasn't much better off. She quietly yawned, gently covered her face with her textbook, and tried hard to concentrate.

But the doctor's gentle explanation gradually turned into a soothing lullaby, making her, who was already prone to drowsiness, feel her eyelids grow heavier and heavier, and in the end, she could not resist the urge to sleep.

Zzzz......

As the course drew to a close, Blatano smiled and looked at the trainers below the stage: "Next is the Q&A session. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have about Mega Evolution."

Shota immediately raised his hand and asked, "Professor, I want to know if there are differences in energy conversion efficiency between Pokémon of different types after Mega Evolution? For example, Grass/Dragon types."

This question is precise and insightful; all that's missing is the Lizard King's ID number.

A hint of approval flashed in Dr. Blatano's eyes. He nodded slightly and replied, "Your question is very crucial. The energy conversion efficiency of Pokémon after Mega Evolution does indeed differ depending on their type, because..."

Here, Shota listened with exceptional attention. From the principles of super evolution to its practical applications, his logic was clear and well-organized, demonstrating a perfect grasp of the key points.

The PhD student nodded repeatedly; who doesn't like a good student?

Subsequently, Doroba and Thierunno also asked questions.

The former is curious about the formation of Mega Stones, while the latter is concerned about the stamina drain on trainers caused by Mega Evolution.

Although their questions weren't particularly in-depth, they were fairly standard. After patiently answering them one by one, Blatano smiled and commented, "Good, you both absorbed the knowledge diligently. These questions are valuable, and it's clear that you were actively thinking."

Xiaoyun watched from the side. Shota was indeed exceptionally serious about his studies, and his logical thinking was very clear. Doroba and the others were able to keep up with him.

Even if these individuals weren't trained, their learning abilities alone would make them all promising talents.

As Blatano was about to leave, his gaze suddenly fell on Ash and he asked, "Ash, is there anything you want to ask?"

Upon hearing the name, Ash hurriedly stood up and blurted out, "Oh, um, I wanted to ask... can Pikachu Mega Evolve?"

"Pickup?"

Pikachu tilted its head, as if to say, "What does this have to do with me?"

This somewhat blunt question left Blatano both amused and exasperated, but he still answered, "Mega evolution requires the Pokémon to be in its final evolved form, and Pikachu does not meet that requirement."

"However, the world is vast and full of wonders. If you ever discover a way to make Pikachu Mega Evolve in the future, please let me know as soon as possible."

Then, the doctor turned to Serena, who instantly snapped out of her daze and quickly shook her head.

"I...I have no problem, Doctor!"

Seeing that the two had just woken up, Blatano smiled and waved his hand: "Alright, sit down. It's already good that you didn't snore in class."

Ash felt as if he had been granted a pardon, while Serena blushed.

Doctor, what are you doing? I feel a little embarrassed.

------------------

On the third day, the tense and exciting outdoor competition finally started again.

Match title: 3V3 Crystal Siege!

Xiaoyun stood in the center of the arena, cleared her throat, and began to announce the rules:

"This match will be played in a 3V3 mode. The rules are simple: there is an energy gem next to each team's base. The team that breaks through the defense first, takes the opponent's gem, and brings it back to their own base is the winner!"

Originally, this project designed by Bratano was simply a series of challenges, but Xiaoyun made some slight modifications to increase the difficulty for everyone.

On both sides of the field, the two teams were already fully prepared and ready to go.

The blue team consists of Citron, Doroba, and Shota.

Team Red consists of Ash, Serena, and Tierra.

Yulijia, the "European Queen," received a bye.

"This looks really interesting, I want to play too."

Xiao Guang stood beside Xiao Yun, watching the two teams poised to start their match.

Suddenly, she didn't want to be an assistant anymore; she wanted to be a trainee and experience the competition firsthand.

"Relax, relax, you can play next time."

Xiaoyun gave Xiaoguang a look that said, "Leave it to me."

He's an instructor; squeezing someone in is a piece of cake for him.

Immediately afterwards, Xiaoyun raised the signal flag in her hand and announced:

"Both trainers, please release your Pokémon!"

Bang bang bang!

Clemont, Dorothy, and Shota each threw out a Poké Ball, and three red lights flashed as Luxray, Nidorina, and SpongePuff appeared one after another.

Citron readily took on the command role, methodically assigning tasks: "Later, Roentgen the Cat will be responsible for long-range suppression."

"Doroba, your Nidonna is in charge of close-range attacks to disrupt the enemy's formation."

"Shota, your fluffy cream puff will act as a support, covering everyone's safety!"

Ranged, melee, and support roles are clearly defined and well-matched.

Xiaoyun stood to the side watching, and couldn't help but wonder if Clemont had secretly played Pokémon Unite.

Doroba and Shota naturally had no objections.

"Roger that!"

the other side,

On the other side, Team Red, consisting of Ash, Serena, and Tierno, also quickly released their Pokémon.

The three are Froghead, Firefox, and Lotus Hat Child.

Unlike Clemont's side, Ash didn't have a designated commander. Having not participated in battles for two days, Ash could no longer contain his excitement and shouted excitedly:

"Frog, let's charge straight in and take down their crystal first!"

Serena said to Ash, "Ash, don't worry, go ahead. Fennekin and I will cover you from behind and make sure you're not ambushed by your opponent!"

Ash exclaimed happily, "Serena is so reliable!"

"Then, I'll take charge of flanking and try to create opportunities for you guys."

Seeing that the two had made arrangements in perfect unison, Tierno, as an outsider, could only play a supporting role.

In the distance, Bonnie, holding Dedric, excitedly waved her little flag: "Ash, Serena, brother, everyone do your best!"

"So, my brother was at the very back of the line?"

Citron complained.

Does he, as the older brother, have so little standing in his sister's eyes?

Just then, Rotom flew to the center of the arena and shouted in an excited tone, "Attention, trainers! The battle is about to begin! Hold your Poké Balls tight and fight alongside your partners. Let the power of your Pokémon shine and charge towards victory!"

"........."

However, after the words were spoken, the arena fell silent. Both trainers and their Pokémon simply stood still, without making any move.

"Lotto?"

A large question mark appeared on Rotom's screen.

Hello, why don't you start yet?

Xiaoyun couldn't help but complain: "Why is it all so fancy? If they don't call 'start,' what are people supposed to do?"

"Game start!"

With Xiaoyun's command, the 3V3 attack and defense battle finally began!

Ash took the lead: "Froakie, Quick Attack!"

"Cuck!"

The frog suddenly swayed, transforming into a blue afterimage, and sped towards the enemy's high ground.

"Hey, Ash, that's way too blatant!"

Citron immediately realized what was happening and shouted at Lukecat, "Lukecat, use Electric Shock!"

The Leccat raised its head and let out a loud roar, and a thick, crisscrossing current instantly condensed and shot towards the oncoming frog.

"Watch out, Ash!"

Serena quickly reminded her, and at the same time, she swiftly gave the command to the Long-tailed Fire Fox: "Long-tailed Fire Fox, use Flame Vortex!"

The long-tailed fire fox swiftly raised its staff, and blazing flames instantly created a wall of fire behind the frog.

Noisy!

The electric current collided violently with the flame, bursting out bursts of blinding white light.

Seizing the opportunity, the assist provider, Tierno, immediately commanded, "Lotus Hat Kid, now's the time to launch the Leaf Blade at the opposing Blue Team!"

The little boy in the lotus hat had a wise look in his eyes and slowly raised his arm.

shhhhhh!

The next moment, countless sharp blades flew towards the Blue Team, attempting to disrupt their rhythm.

Shota immediately gave the order: "Mianmian Cream Puff, use cotton defense against everyone!"

The cream puffs floated in the air, puffing up their round bodies and releasing clumps of soft, white cotton.

The cotton rapidly expanded, forming a huge cotton shield that protected their own forces.

The flying leaves struck the cotton, instantly losing their power and falling away.
