Pokémon: Chosen Ranger

"Xia Ye, can you please bring some fresh fruit? I have guests here who need to be entertained~" The voice on the phone was very happy.

Faced with Mr. Gade's request, Xia Ye did not refuse, but she always felt that he had other purposes.

After spending some time loading the fruit, Xia Ye led the masked Ergui to Spike Town. Hearing Mr. Gad's happy voice, was it his son or granddaughter who came to visit him?

In Spike Town, Gade Restaurant was closed for the day today. Xia Ye gently knocked on the door. About thirty seconds later, the door slowly opened from the inside.

"Thank you, Xia Ye, come in and sit down, and of course there will be Egui Pun." Gade was full of energy and his face was rosy.

"Then I won't be polite."

"Bo Ni~" Egui Pun shook his head and followed Xia Ye. Is there any pudding~

"Hahahaha, has your grandson repeated a grade again? It would be great if he came back to inherit the gym as soon as possible!"

The chubby old man laughed boldly and slapped the tall and strong old man beside him. He frowned and was also worried about this matter.

"How about calling him back to help you teach? After working as a teacher for a long time, you should understand the hard work of the teacher." The old man on crutches suggested.

"If you ask me, he's not made for this. Why don't these descendants inherit the advantages of their elders at all?" Mr. Gaede joined the conversation.

"Although I don't inherit Shaka's calm personality, I'm very strong in battle, isn't it? Hahahaha!"

"Tsk, old man Tiexuan, why do you feel there is something in your words?"

"Ged, you are more than half your age, it's time to learn to sharpen your mind." The old man with the cane sighed.

Gade immediately retorted: "I call it keeping one's heart."

Xia Ye was stunned by the lively quarrel between the four old men. Except for Mr. Gade, all the old men were the current gym owners, the trainers at the top.

The laughing old man was wearing a bright yellow electrician's uniform and a casual shirt with a lightning pattern. His name was Tie Xuan, and he was the master of the electrical department from the Fengyuan region.

Behind his cheerful appearance is a wealth of knowledge. He presided over the transformation of Zijin City and turned it into a modern big city.

The serious old man on the side is named Xia Ka, who comes from the Hezhong area and is a dragon hall master.

The pure white shirt and gray trousers give people a sense of stability. His dragon-like beard and strong muscles still look like a dragon trainer.

He treats people equally and has extraordinary self-cultivation. This talent allowed him to become the master of Shuangyong City and concurrently the principal of Shuangyong Academy, determined to cultivate powerful trainers.

The last old man is named Liu Bo, who is good at using ice Pokémon and is the owner of Kaji Gym in Chengdu area.

He was wearing a dark blue windbreaker with a white scarf hanging on his shoulders. His eyes were as cold and hard as ice. He was worthy of being an ice trainer.

But if it were Liu Bo from another world line, he would be the top among trainers.

"Hahahaha, is this boy the Xia Ye who helped you get out of your decadence?" Tie Xuan said with a laugh.

"Ha, I've always been very energetic!" Mr. Gaide coughed, then looked at Xia Ye and said, "Really, Xia Ye, don't pay attention to what this weird old man says."

"Why are you so weird old man? Aren't we close friends? Hahahaha!" Tiexuan didn't mind at all.

"Forget it, Xia Ye, as you can see, these old guys are all friends I met during my travels. Unlike me who retired, they are all current museum owners."

Then Mr. Gaede introduced all the attributes they were good at, as well as the regions and cities they came from.

Xia Ye nodded silently, he knew all this.

After carefully observing Xia Ye, the three old men invariably focused their attention on Er Gui Chu. Their experienced eyes convinced them that this was a powerful Pokémon with unlimited potential.

It would be fine if he was a kind old man. Under the gaze of the three extremely oppressive old men, Egui Chu immediately shrank behind Xia Ye.

"Bonnie oh"

"Hey, look away, you scared it even if you didn't see it." Mr. Gaed scolded.

"Haha, I did it accidentally." Tie Xuan scratched his head sheepishly.

"I'm sorry, my behavior just now was indeed very rude." Xia Ka showed an apologetic expression.

"Well, I didn't expect that I would be back to my youthful self in an instant. I still haven't practiced enough." Uncle Liu closed his eyes and sighed.

The three old men showed apologetic expressions, and then Mr. Gaede went to the kitchen: "I'll get them a pudding, you guys talk first."

"Bonnie!"

It was pudding. Ergui's fear was gone. It jumped lightly and sat on the chair, waiting obediently to taste the delicious food.

"Xia Ye," Tie Xuan said like an old man next door, "Do you know what weather our electric trainers like best?"

"rain?"

"Wow, hahaha, that's right, lightning and thunder on rainy days, thunder hits the target perfectly!" Tie Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

"Xia Ye, which two attributes do you think are the most powerful against the ice attribute?" Liu Bo opened one eye and asked.

"Fire and steel type, right?"

"Well, that's right. Resistance and restraint. In fact, I'm not only good at ice-based moves, but also ground-based and water-based moves. This is to counter them. You must know that the battle is full of games." Liu Bo opened another One eye.

Before Shaka could speak, Gade came out of the kitchen and said:

"Really, I thought you would say something, just ask these basic questions!"

He placed two plates of pudding on the table. Ergui took off his mask happily, picked up the happy spoon and started eating.

"Hey, the real one looks surprisingly cute," Tie Xuan said, stroking his beard.

"If you ask me, wouldn't it be over if you just fight with Xia Ye? It's a grind!" Gade was very dissatisfied with their performance.

The three old men were silent for a while, then Xia Ka stood up and said:

"Well, please let me do it. Of course I will send out the newly trained Pokémon."

"Xia Ye, what's your answer?" Gade asked.

"I'm fine"

Xia Ye nodded and said, the few in front of him are all experienced gym owners, and they all have something worth learning. The battle is in line with his plan to become stronger.

"Haha, what a nice guy!" Tie Xuan laughed as always.

Liu Bo also agreed and said: "Well, there are very few trainers who can face Xia Ka's challenge head-on."

"If you ask me, why don't you just send out the Double Ax Battle Dragon? It's not a gym challenge. It would be ugly to lose." Gad said nonchalantly.

"But there's a problem."

"What's the problem?" Gade asked hurriedly.

"Let's wait until Ergui has finished the pudding, because it's the only Pokémon I have." Xia Ye said as he doted on Ergui and pushed his plate of pudding to Ergui.

Eguifen happily took the plate, not noticing that he was about to fight the majestic old man later.

In front of the former Spike Gym, Shaka sent out his Pokémon, which was a ferocious Tyrannosaurus. It seemed a bit bullying, but this was already Shaka's weakest Pokémon.

Xia Ye's expression was calm and he said calmly: "Egui Peng, change the mask. This time we use the foundation stone mask."
