Pokemon: Pick up the Mystical Pokémon Diancie at the beginning

"Hello, I'm here to visit again!"

A cheerful voice rang out from outside the door.

A robust, humanoid tiger, sitting cross-legged in the center of the meditation hall, broke its meditation and slowly opened its tiger eyes.

A look of helplessness and speechlessness flashed across his eyes.

In the past, the Blazing Roaring Tiger would have already slapped the persistent guy outside in a fit of rage.

But recently it has improved its self-control and finally suppressed this impulse.

It stood up abruptly, but did not respond to the call from the people outside immediately. Instead, it walked silently to the wooden cabinet in the corner of the dojo, and took out a small cat scratching post with an adorable design that was completely out of place with its burly appearance.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger carefully retracted its claws, leaving only a small tip exposed.

The tiger's paw, capable of shattering a mountain with a single blow, landed gently on the cat scratching board, only lightly rubbing against it. It stopped its actions with a pained expression after barely scraping off any paper scraps.

This action calmed the Blazing Roaring Tiger down a bit.

When it misses Su Hao or encounters difficulties, besides seeking help from the all-powerful Aladdin, it usually calms its emotions through this action.

It was precisely because of the persistent pester outside that the Blazing Roaring Tiger had to resort to its most precious treasure.

Although the Blazing Roaring Tiger has always taken good care of itself, the scratching post in its hand is the last one left by Su Hao, so it's a pity to use it even once.

However, a few others that it cherished were given to Zeraora, who is currently training outside. I wonder if that little cat has taken good care of them.

Compared to ten years ago, the eyes of the Blazing Roaring Tiger have become more composed and less unruly.

After all, it now has an official position in the Shenzhou Federation and is nominally Su Hao's Pokémon, the guardian deity of Yangcheng!

This training ground, which it used for cultivation, was built by the Divine Continent Federation after consulting with the Blazing Roaring Tiger through Su Xu.

It usually cultivates here, and occasionally goes out to fight for justice.

Its main purpose is to deal with some events caused by a kind of thing that Mewtwo named "Dark Element" that remains in some corner of this world.

However, the Blazing Roaring Tiger wasn't entirely clear on the specifics, since even if it could use its cunning, it didn't mean it was intelligent.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger has a very clear understanding of itself.

Let's leave these kinds of things to Mewtwo and Suma.

It just needs to work hard and produce miracles, just like the Metagross monster that acts as an external computer.

With that in mind, the Blazing Roaring Tiger stopped thinking about how to get rid of the trouble outside the door.

Instead, he clenched his fists, his bones crackling like firecrackers, and a familiar, wicked smile spread across his face.

Who cares about the details, just beat them up and that's it!

Think of this.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger strode to the tightly closed gate of the dojo and pushed it open with a "bang," nearly sending Li Xiao, who was standing at the door, flying out.

"Fuck-!"

Li Xiao let out a strange cry and narrowly avoided the attack with a backward step that was almost an instinctive movement.

"Click..."

Seeing this, the Blazing Roaring Tiger revealed an expression that was hard to tell whether it was regret or something else.

Li Xiao, like a Growlithe dog whose tail had been stepped on, yelled, "Hey, you just clicked your tongue, didn't you!"

In response, the Blazing Roaring Tiger simply rolled its eyes, neither denying nor admitting it.

"Honestly, who am I even coming here every now and then for...?"

Li Xiao wasn't angry about it. Instead, he muttered something and skillfully slipped through the gap under the Blazing Roaring Tiger's armpit, heading straight into the dojo.

As soon as he left, Lin Ke, who had been quietly waiting behind him, came into the sight of the Blazing Roaring Tiger.

She was holding several exquisitely designed small boxes. Although the lids were tightly closed, the Fiery Roaring Tiger still managed to smell the lingering fragrance on them thanks to its keen sense of smell.

—This time, the dessert is cookies!

The Blazing Roaring Tiger's eyes lit up.

Of the couple, only the female one knows a bit about manners.

They even brought a gift when they arrived, unlike the previous one, whose Blazing Roaring Tiger was just annoying to look at.

Although it does enjoy eating large chunks of meat and used to scoff at these little things, it has now learned how to enjoy different flavors of food.

"Crack!"

As if it were "money-grubbing," the Blazing Roaring Tiger didn't stand on ceremony at all, snatching the small box that Lin Ke had brought into its arms and wagging its tail to indicate that Lin Ke could come in now.

After Lin Ke entered the dojo, the Blazing Roaring Tiger closed the dojo's gate.

Perhaps it's because I just took out some old things.

Watching their retreating figures, Blazing Roar Tiger couldn't help but recall the brief time he spent with Su Hao at Jiangcheng University.

Because Li Xiao was Su Hao's neighbor at the university, Blazing Roaring Tiger was also quite familiar with him. After all, they lived close by and often sparred together.

Lin Ke, Li Xiao's girlfriend, will watch the game from the sidelines as a support medical staff member.

And now.

Li Xiao became one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Fire in the Divine Continent Federation.

His wife, Lin Ke, is already a promising senior breeder.

Thinking about this, the Blazing Roaring Tiger felt a pang of emotion.

Time flies so fast.

Nearly ten years have passed, but there is still no news of Su Hao and Sister Tianxi, who are in another world.

Even the Riddler Dragon Four-Jaggles Dragon, which has now settled on Blue Star, and that Master-level Paper Sword cannot break through the barrier between the two worlds and open the ultimate grotto leading there.

It's as if that ultimate world is currently in a closed state.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger also felt that it had been a while since it had seen its other companions.

Emotions come quickly and go quickly.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger quickly regained its composure.

Its future is still long, and there is plenty of time to wait.

Even though those two or three short years were less than a third of the ten years that followed, they were the most memorable and vivid time for the Blazing Roaring Tiger.

Therefore, Blazing Roar Tiger believed that his waiting would surely be rewarded.

After ceasing its contemplation, the Blazing Roaring Tiger's gaze fell upon Li Xiao, who was also looking at it.

In his eyes, the Blazing Roaring Tiger saw something called "Battle Will".

"Want to fight?"

After standing up, although it was a question, Li Xiao's tone was quite confident.

In response, the Fiery Roaring Tiger took action.

—The aura of a master instantly filled the entire training ground.

"Kaahoo!" (Fight!)

"Hahaha, good time!"

"Let me show you how much we've improved lately!"

"You go first, Blaziken!"

With a hearty laugh, Li Xiao threw out a Poké Ball, and a Blaziken with a red V-shaped crest, strong legs, and an aura that clearly belonged to the Elite Four level appeared!

"Crack!"

The Blazing Roaring Tiger growled and waved its paw at Li Xiao. The meaning was clear—let him attack first.

Li Xiao didn't stand on ceremony. His eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "Blizzard, use Quick Attack to get close, then use Flame Kick!"

Blaziken suddenly stomped its feet, unleashing powerful leg strength, and its figure transformed into a streak of red light, appearing almost instantly in front of Incineroar.

Its raised right leg, wreathed in scorching flames, drew a sharp arc as it kicked towards the Blazing Roaring Tiger!

however.

Faced with a strike powerful enough to pierce steel, the Blazing Roaring Tiger didn't even bother to raise its claws.

It merely turned slightly to the side, seemingly casually using the outside of its upper arm, covered in black and red fur, to flick its elbow forward—

boom!

After a muffled thud, Blaziken's powerful Flame Kick was easily blocked, and the force of the recoil even made its stable base sway.

Meanwhile, in that brief moment of swaying...

Incineroar's broad paw landed precisely on Blaziken's face.

There were no dazzling moves or earth-shattering displays.

All that remains is the pure, unadulterated physical strength of the Blazing Roaring Tiger, honed through countless trials.

The Blaziken's charge came to an abrupt halt.

Beneath its bright red V-shaped crest, its eyes instantly lost focus. With a muffled groan, Blaziken slumped backward, completely incapacitated.

——Kill instantly with one strike!

The dojo fell silent for a moment, with only Li Xiao's rapid breathing remaining.

"They're going all out right from the start—"

Li Xiao looked at the fallen Blaziken and shook his head with a wry smile.

Although he had experienced this scene many times, he still sighed every time he saw it because of the vast difference in their abilities.

You should know that the current Blazing Roaring Tiger has been growing wildly for the past ten years since Su Hao left.

Looking at my own Pokémon, each one was carefully bred, but the gap between us is still undeniable.

After instantly defeating Blaziken, Incineroar withdrew its paws, shook them indifferently, and turned its gaze to Li Xiao.

That look seemed to be asking, "Who's next?"

"......"

Li Xiao took a deep breath, his fighting spirit growing even stronger.

His gaze fell on his wife, Lin Ke, who nodded in understanding and summoned Brim and Blissey to heal the fallen Blaziken on the spot.

At the same time, Li Xiao threw another Poké Ball: "Cinderace, use Fireball!"

With the aura of a Champion, Cinderace leaped high into the air, flames gathering wildly at the tips of his feet, instantly forming a massive fireball that distorted the air with temperatures comparable to a regular Z-Move.

The next instant, this "sun" descended.

Faced with the fireball that resembled a miniature sun falling from the sky, Incineroar simply raised its right paw, the condensed dark energy pulsating in its palm.

Facing the oncoming fireball, the Blazing Roaring Tiger unleashed a powerful palm strike—

Stab it!

The fireball, which contained the full power of the Blazing Flame Ace, was cleaved in two by the tiger's paw as easily as slapping tofu!

The fireball, split in two, grazed past the Blazing Roaring Tiger and exploded on the ground not far behind it.

But the Fiery Roaring Tiger didn't even blink.

A real tiger never looks back at an explosion!

"Eek—!"

In the instant that Flame Ace was stunned, the figure of Blazing Roar Tiger had already rushed in front of it like a ghost.

It was a simple and direct tiger paw strike, landing squarely on Flame Ace's chest.

Bang!

Flame Ace was sent flying backward, crashing to the ground and losing consciousness.
