Elf: My three starters are the three gods of Hoenn

As Arcanine, she naturally possesses the ability to discern the good and evil in humans. If she doesn't sense any hostility, Arcanine might agree!

After a long while, Arcanine let out a roar that seemed to reach the sky, and then gestured for Zhang Feng to take out a Poké Ball!

Overjoyed to have gained Arcanine's approval, Zhang Feng immediately captured Arcanine and Growlithe and placed them all into his system space!

They found a volcano crater and put Growlithe and Arcanine together!

Although he had captured Arcanine and the others, the only one Zhang Feng truly wanted to train was that purple-quality Growlithe!

As the mother of the Growlithe, Zhang Feng definitely had to explain things to her!

In the end, Zhang Feng successfully persuaded Arcanine that from now on, Growlithe could naturally be brought out to battle and train in normal times!

Even though he was injured, it was proof that he had become stronger!

With a suitable habitat, Arcanine was at ease. In a world where Rayquaza exists, a trainer with such a legendary Pokémon is someone she and her children can entrust their lives to!

No mother doesn't want her child to become stronger and happier!

……

After capturing the Growlithe pack, Zhang Feng continued his search for new Pokémon in Mt. Chimney!

Unfortunately, it seemed that his luck had run out, and after failing to find any other suitable Pokémon, Zhang Feng headed towards Furnace Town!

Fuyan Town, a hot spring town nestled at the foot of Chimney Mountain!

Hearing that the hot springs here were quite nice, Zhang Feng decided to go and soak in them. It was a pity, though, that all the Pokémon in his system space had already multiplied and found partners!

I'm the only one soaking in the hot spring all by myself!

At times like this, you should find a girlfriend, soak in a hot spring together, and do some fun things!

Upon arriving in LavaCity, Zhang Feng handed over all his Pokémon to Nurse Joy and then went ahead to soak in the hot springs!

It has to be said that the hot spring is indeed worthy of being a volcanic hot spring. After soaking in it, one would linger and not want to leave. This made Zhang Feng think about whether he should make a volcanic hot spring in the system space, since there is a volcano in the system space anyway!

After retrieving his Pokémon, Zhang Feng headed straight for the Furnace Gym!

The Gym Leader of the Furnace Gym is a newcomer who just took office this year—Aysa!

Aysa, the Gym Leader of Lava City, specializes in Fire-type Pokémon. Although she has only been in the position for a short time, her strength is at least at the level of a near-Elite Four member!

Therefore, Zhang Feng plans to send out Growlithe and Infernape to challenge this gym!

For the last one, we'll see what Pokémon Gym Leader Aysa sends out!

Once all his Pokémon were fully restored, Zhang Feng headed straight for the Furnace Gym!

"So you're today's challenger? I'm Asa, the Gym Leader of the Furnace Dojo. I hope we can have a thrilling battle today!"

……

Chapter 52 Fuma Flame Dojo, a scorching battle!

Aysa, with her fiery red hair, represents the fiery personality of this gym leader!

When Zhang Feng arrived at the Furnace Dojo, Aysa, who always had a burning fighting spirit, actually waited for him at the entrance of the dojo. As soon as she saw Zhang Feng, she quickly arranged the dojo battle!

After the referees took their positions, Zhang Feng and Yasha stood in the positions of challenger and gym leader, respectively, and began their battle!

"Next up is a gym battle between challenger Zhang Feng and Aysa, the gym leader of Fubuki City. The battle rules are three against three, and only the challenger has the right to switch Pokémon. Now, let the battle begin!"

After the referee gave the order, Gym Leader Aysa sent out her first Pokémon!

A level 25 Fire Camel!

Perhaps every gym leader is like this: their first Pokémon is used to test the challenger's strength, so its level is not high!

Facing Slowbro, Zhang Feng also took out Growlithe's Poké Ball!

With a flash of red light, Growlithe appeared in front of Slowbro, its Intimidate ability activated, causing Slowbro's Attack power to drop significantly!

When Aysa saw that Zhang Feng had also sent out a Fire-type Pokémon, she became interested!

"Oh? I didn't expect you to be a trainer who loves Fire-type Pokémon too. That's great. But when it comes to battles, I won't hold back!"

"Dull Fire Camel, use Smoke Blow!"

Upon receiving Aysa's command, the Fire Camel immediately opened its mouth wide, and a cloud of black smoke, carrying a scorching heat, instantly swept across the entire battlefield!

Although Growlithe is a Fire-type Pokémon, it doesn't have the Flash Fire ability, so it was still injured by the smoke!

Seeing this, Zhang Feng immediately said to the Growlithe!

"Growlithe, use Quick Attack followed by Fire Wheel!"

Using a flash of lightning to increase its speed, and just as it was about to approach the Stupid Fire Camel, its entire body was covered in flames!

The wind speed generated during the charge also enhances the attack power of the Flame Wheel!

The next moment, Growlithe crashed directly into Slowbro, sending Slowbro flying!

"Very good, that's it, Growlithe, use Bite!"

Growlithe already harbored a deep aversion to Pokémon like Camerupt, especially since it had been surrounded by a herd of Camerupt when it and its mother arrived at Mt. Chimney.

Therefore, having vented their emotions, Growlithe is also full of fighting spirit!

Before Slowbro could recover from the attack, Growlithe charged straight at it, its teeth flashing with malice as it bit down!

After being hurt, Slowbro tried to fight back, but was pinned down by Growlithe and couldn't move!

After a while, the Fire Camel was exhausted and lost its ability to fight!

"Ding! Growlithe defeated Slowbro, gaining 211 experience points and leveling up to level 23!"

"Camel is unable to battle, Growlithe wins!"

After hearing the referee's words, Aysa took out a Poké Ball and recalled Slowpoke!

"Impressive fighting spirit, Zhang Feng. Your Growlithe is very well trained. I'll leave the rest to you, Magma Bug!"

As Asha sent out another Pokémon, the Lava Bug, it appeared before Zhang Feng!

This lava worm was enormous, reaching a height of over one meter, which is 1.5 times the size of an ordinary lava worm!

This shows how powerful Asha, the lava worm, is!

Pokémon: Lava Worm

Rating: 33

Special Feature: Lava Armor

Attribute: Fire

Qualification: Purple

Bond Evolution: Not yet unlocked

Super Evolution: Not yet unlocked

Skills: Mist, Yawn, Falling Rocks, Primal Power, Burn, Rockfall...

Faced with this level 32 Lava Bug, Zhang Feng recalled Growlithe and sent out Infernape to fight!

"Another Fire-type Pokémon? Great, great, Zhang Feng, I'm liking you more and more! Trainers who like Fire-type Pokémon are the most adorable people!"

As Aysa finished speaking, she realized she didn't quite recognize Zhang Feng's Infernape!

"What kind of Pokémon is this?"

In response to Aysa's question, Zhang Feng smiled and said, "!"

"I obtained Infernape, the evolved form of Chimchar, one of the starter Pokémon from the Sinnoh region, by chance. Aysa, keep up your fighting spirit!"

After saying that, Zhang Feng immediately ordered the Fire Monkey to launch an attack!

"Infernape, go! Use Mach Punch!"

Infernape with the Iron Fist ability can naturally increase the power of its punching attacks by more than 20%!

Therefore, Zhang Feng immediately had Infernape use its punching skills!

"I see. As expected of the man who has already obtained four gym badges and defeated Senri of the Petalburg Gym. Magma Bug, use Rock Slide!"

Although the Magma Bug used a Rock-type move, by the time they coalesced and began to fall, Infernape had already rushed in front of the Magma Bug!

His right fist, glowing with white light, slammed out instantly, striking the lava worm directly and sending it flying!

At this moment, a large number of stones began to fall!

However, in the face of Infernape's powerful Fighting-type skills, the falling stones were all shattered by Infernape's moves!

"Very good, that's it! Use Flame Wheel!"

Upon receiving Zhang Feng's command again, the Infernape roared instantly, its entire body bursting into flames, and it began to spin rapidly!

"Lava Worm, Primal Power!"

Even though the Lava Bug had already started to gather its skill, Infernape was faster and hit the Lava Bug first, forcibly interrupting its skill!

"The final blow, Thunder Fist!"

As crackling electricity crackled across Infernape's hands, a dazzling light flashed, and Magma Bug was blasted away!

When he fell to the ground, both of his eyes turned into circular patterns!

"Ding-dong! Infernape has defeated Lava Bug, gaining 325 experience points and leveling up to lv34!"

"Lavabug is unable to battle, Infernape wins! Gym Leader Aysa, please send out your next Pokémon!"

Seeing herself defeated once again, Aysa was somewhat unwilling to accept it!

"This Infernape is really powerful, let's go, my last trump card!"

With a burst of red light, a coal turtle made its appearance!

"Ding-dong, the Coal Turtle's current attribute values ​​are as follows:"

Pokémon: Torkoal

Rating: 37

Characteristics: White smoke

Attribute: Fire

Qualification: Purple

Bond Evolution: Not yet unlocked

Super Evolution: Not yet unlocked

Skills: Coil, High Speed ​​Spin, Flame Wheel, Protect, Smoke Blast, Iron Wall, Body Slam, Flamethrower...

Chapter 53 Flame Badge, Red-Qualified Infernape!

"The last one, is it really a Torkoal?"

As one of the most powerful Fire-type Pokémon in the Hoenn region, Torkoal's strength should not be underestimated!

Since Aysa is the Fire-type Gym Leader of the Lava City Gym, she naturally possesses Pokémon like Torkoal. It is said that her strongest trump card is a Torkoal at the near-Elite Four level!

A level 37, purple-quality Coalossal is undoubtedly a formidable opponent for Infernape right now!

However, if Infernape can defeat its opponent who is of a higher level, perhaps the light of evolution will shine throughout the field after the victory!

Having thought this through, Zhang Feng decided not to change his Pokémon and instead continue letting Infernape fight!

"Infernape, your opponent is quite strong, be careful!"

After hearing Zhang Feng's words, the Infernape became restless, jumping around and letting out sharp cries. It was getting excited!

"Let's use Infernape, Torkoal! We seem to be underestimated!"

Upon hearing Aysa's words, Coalossy stomped its hooves on the ground and spewed out two puffs of smoke from its nostrils. Clearly, these words had greatly increased Coalossy's fighting spirit and made it extremely dissatisfied!

"Here we go, Torkoal! Use Flamethrower!"

After Aysa gave the order, Torkoal unleashed its full power, spewing fierce flames from its mouth and rushing straight at Infernape!

Seeing this, Zhang Feng calmly said!
