Gym leaders are like this, all they have to do is keep working overtime, but gym challengers have a lot more to consider.

================Dividing line==============

Gym Challenge in Galar is a very popular sport.

Except for Spike Town, which is actively blocked and cannot be Dynamaxed, every time a formal gym challenge is launched, countless people will gather in the gym's audience seats to enjoy the grand performance brought to them by the Dynamax Pokémon.

Although the Gigantamax fighting style is relatively dangerous, its viewing value is indeed commendable.

Various super aoe moves were thrown at each other, just like watching a special effects movie.

The key is that this special effect is real, not just someone else's performance with a suit, which is very attractive.

Therefore, even if some people are not trainers at all, they will be very active in buying tickets for gym challenges and cheering for their favorite players.

However...this gym challenge is a little different.

In addition to the usual audience, a very popular figure in Galar also appeared in the audience seats of this gym challenge.

Yes, he is the president of Marrokomon and the Pokémon League, Roz.

In fact, generally speaking, Luo Zi doesn't pay too much attention to the process of the gym challenge.

He doesn't usually have that much free time to do this.

What he values ​​most are always those trainers who can truly enter the final round.

To put it bluntly, ordinary bones are not worthy of his attention.

Those fourth-rate trainers with third-rate Pokémon should just be left to struggle on their own.jpg Only those who have shown their potential early on or are the elites who have fought their way out of the siege can get his attention.

The reason why he appeared here this time was because he happened to be near Shuizhou Town.

Since you are here, you might as well come and take a look.

And I heard from the secretary that there seemed to be some problems with Lurina recently.

According to those people, Lurina is no longer suitable for the position of gym leader.

So he also wanted to see whether Lurina was really as bad as the intelligence said.

As for whether Lurina is suitable for the position of gym leader...there have actually been many discussions within the alliance a long time ago.

Roz himself was somewhat dissatisfied with Lurina's situation.

Many gym leaders not only serve as gym leaders but also have a main or side job, and Lurina is no exception.

Actually, this is nothing, just some personal hobbies, not a big deal.

Although Roz does not support this, he will not object too much.

But the problem is that Lurina's behavior in this matter is completely different from that of other gym leaders.

Even if other gym leaders are relieved of other tasks, they can still properly handle their work and gym business at the same time.

However, after Lurina took on two jobs at the same time, she began to drag herself down and ended up not being able to do either job well.

Roz had mentioned this to Lurina once, suggesting that she should choose only one of the two and not have it both ways.

But in the end, his suggestion came to nothing, and Lurina showed no sign of giving up either side.

This made Roz extremely disappointed, and he felt that Lurina was ruining herself.

In his eyes, Lurina's true potential has never been realized.

If the fully liberated Lurina is a ferocious great white shark, then now she is just a small goldfish...

The gap was so huge that Roz couldn't accept it at all.

So he really hopes that Lurina can give up her modeling job.

But now it seems...why does Lurina seem to be going backwards as she gets older?

Is she really still the water-type trainer that I had previously favored?

They in Galar wouldn't really want to change a water-type gym leader, right?

Of course, in addition to observing Lurina's quality, there is another key reason why he appeared here.

The person who challenged Lurina's gym this time also had a certain relationship with him.

The player named Peter was trained by him personally. He was very optimistic about Peter's potential, so he took him away from the orphanage and spent resources to train him.

Today he also hopes to take this opportunity to see how much Peter has grown.

Like Dantei, Ross also pays special attention to those novice trainers with outstanding talents.

He really hopes that Peter can reach the level of Nie Zi and Qibana and become a strong rival of Dan Emperor.

Even surpassing the Dan Emperor.

Dantei is indeed a very strong trainer, but he is now far less controllable than before.

If possible, Roz would rather have a champion who completely obeys his orders rather than a champion with his own ideas.

"Don't let me down."

"The strength of our Galar trainers has all evolved through mutual competition, and you are no exception."

“Only those who remain standing on the battlefield at the end can be considered truly strong.”

Wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap, Roz muttered to himself at both sides of Shuizhou Town, but it was unclear who he was talking to.

The gym challenge will soon officially begin.

The Pokémon Peter uses are all Psychic-type, while Lurina's Pokémon must all be Water-type according to the rules.

In terms of the mutual restraint relationship among the eighteen attributes, the super attribute is a relatively weak attribute, with a very poor attack range and very poor resistance.

It is more valuable in terms of fighting.

However, when it comes to combat, the fairy attribute can achieve the same effect, and it doesn't even have the drawbacks of being restrained by the ghost attribute and the evil attribute.

But no matter what, it is at least a relatively high-level attribute, and most Pokémon with psychic attributes are not too weak.

Therefore, Peter, who specializes in super powers, still has a very promising future.

If it doesn't work out, I can just turn into a fairy!

However, since the psychic attribute does not have a restraining relationship with the water attribute that Lurina is good at, this assessment is purely based on the strength of both sides.

Conventionally, a gym leader can only use Dynamax when there is only one Pokémon left.

Gym challengers can freely arrange their Dynamaxing time and use this mechanism to maximize their winning rate.

Unlike Mega Evolution and Taijing, Dynamax cannot persist permanently in battle and can only last for a short period of time.

Therefore, knowing when to use Gigantamax to maximize the advantage is also a compulsory course for Galar trainers.

In addition, since Lurina is in charge of the second gym, she generally does not send out overly powerful Pokémon.

As long as the challenger's strength reaches a certain level, she will simply declare him the winner.

Rather than simply focusing on the strength of Pokémon, the Gym Challenge focuses more on the trainer's command ability and the various techniques used by Pokémon in battle.

For example, if you use the skill 'Quick Dodge' to a superb level, then it is not impossible for you to defeat a Flying-type Gym Leader even with Yuan Mage.

However, the battle ended faster than Lurina had imagined, much faster.

Although the opponent's physical strength could not compare to hers, the skills he demonstrated were quite noteworthy.

Perhaps because she hadn't had a formal battle with anyone for too long, Lurina even felt a little unfamiliar during the battle.

This is especially true when using Dynamax.

This made the opponent's victory seem a bit...easy.

This seemed to be the first time she had encountered such a situation since she became the gym leader.

This doesn't seem like the strength she should have.

What's wrong with her? This isn't her usual state.

Suppressing her uneasiness, the defeated Lurina pulled out her gym badge and handed it to her opponent:

"Congratulations, this is the badge of the Shuizhou Gym. Please keep it."

Looking at the azure badge fragments in front of him, Peter plucked his hair twice with pride.

He spoke in an extremely arrogant tone:

"It's so easy! This gym challenge isn't that big of a deal!"

"As expected, I, Peter, am destined to become the next league champion of Galar."

"The president will definitely be proud of me."

"..."

Originally, Lurina wanted to encourage the other person, but after hearing what this person said, she gave up this idea.

Well, let him be proud for a while. I still have a lot of things to do and don’t have time to deal with him.

The girl thought so and turned around, preparing to leave the battle area directly.

However, just as she took two steps forward, Peter's voice came again from behind her.

"Are the other gym leaders as weak as you?"

The girl paused for a moment, then walked towards the exit while speaking loudly:

"If you want to dream, it's better to go back home and do it."

"What did you say?!"

Although it was Peter who made the rude remarks first, Lurina's words still made Peter angry.

Although his remarks sound extremely arrogant to others, one could even call him a "fool".

But...that's what he really thought.

He didn't think he was saying anything arrogant or absurd at all, he was just stating the facts.

As someone recognized by President Ross and personally invited to the gym challenge, Peter felt that he was destined to become the strongest.

And the fact is...so far he has never lost once, just like the Dan Emperor back then.

This further fueled his arrogance, and he felt that he would definitely become the second Dan Emperor.

And now this woman says he's dreaming?

Humph, he's just the owner of a cricket museum, what's so great about that?

Unfortunately, Lurina obviously ignored his plan and continued to move towards the exit.

People like Peter are rare, but they do exist, and this is not the first time Lurina has seen such a person.

Based on past experience, most of these arrogant guys will never recover after suffering a blow.

Only a very few can turn over a new leaf, not only not being defeated by reality but rising from the ashes.

But... no matter how thoroughly one comprehends it, in the end no one will truly reach the pinnacle. The champion of Galar is still the Emperor of Dan, and no one has any hope of getting to the top until he is outlasted.

She didn't think Peter would be an exception.

Moreover, Peter is now just an insignificant gym challenger, and it is really not worthy for her to become a gym leader.

When Peter has collected all the badges, he will be qualified to let Lurina look at him with respect.

However, just as Lurina's fingertips touched the door at the exit of the arena.

She suddenly felt something was wrong.

The girl suddenly turned around, only to find that in the very center of the arena, a purple-black beam of light with an infrasonic hum suddenly shot up into the sky, instantly dyeing the entire Shuizhou Town arena dark purple.

In the center area directly above the light column, three clouds that looked like three-magatama Sharingan were constantly spinning there, and from time to time, a few arcs of lightning flashed across, turning the entire arena into a doomsday-like scene.

Is this the power of Dynamax? But why did the power of Dynamax appear suddenly?

Could it be that Peter is causing trouble?

But looking at his surprised expression, it doesn't seem like it.

Although she was full of doubts, Lurina immediately sent out her main Pokémon, Tortoise.

Peter, who was on the other side of the arena, was no slower than her, throwing out a Poké Ball almost at the same time as Lurina sent out her Pokémon.

The Pokémon he sent out was much smaller and cuter than Lurina's Tortoise, and had a very 'fairy-like' style.
