Pokémon: Chosen Ranger

In Spike Town, Mr. Gad stayed in the restaurant as always, waiting for the guests to arrive. Since that concert, more and more tourists were willing to come to Spike Town, and he gradually regained the feeling of his youth.

"Oh, welcome. Uh," Mr. Gad's face changed, and he waved his hands in disgust: "Why are you here? Go, go, go, Spike Town does not welcome guys with twisted personalities!"

"Hoho, this is how you treat your guests, Gade?"

The old woman was not angry because of the other person's attitude. Instead, she smiled kindly. This guy had such a bad temper before.

"Hey, what do you want to eat?" Mr. Gaede sighed helplessly.

The old man in front of him wears a light lake blue hat, a thick dark purple fur collar around his neck, a pink and blue dress, and an umbrella hanging on his arm. His face is old and kind, and his whole body exudes an elusive and unique temperament.

"Sweet food."

"Be careful to lose all your remaining teeth."

Mr. Gaede snorted and walked into the kitchen, then brought out a plate of candy decorations and placed them in front of the old woman: "It's free, Popola. The taste is absolutely guaranteed."

Popla glanced at it, and then asked slowly: "Frost Milk Fairy's candy decorations? Gad, when did you get this hobby?"

"No, how do you know it's decorated with sugar?" Mr. Gaede crossed his arms, a little surprised.

"Hoho, I grew up smelling this smell. How could I not be clear about it? Besides, hasn't my Frost Milk Fairy conquered you yet?" Popla showed a kind smile, but there was a hint of ridicule. meaning.

"Would you like to have a fight now? You won't refuse, right? The current owner?"

"Haha, I'm not as energetic as you. Let's stop here to reminisce about old friends. Do you know this young man?" Popla took out a photo from her arms.

"Who is your old friend? No, I don't know him. Why do you think I know him?" Mr. Gad's tone made him inexplicably panic after seeing the photo.

"It seems that you like him very much, Gad." Popla stood up slowly, "Don't worry, although I am looking for the heir to the gym, it won't be him. He is not suitable for a place like the gym. "

Obviously the other party knew Xia Ye's identity. Mr. Gaide asked directly: "Then what are you looking for Xia Ye for?"

"I just said I didn't know him, well, I just wanted to meet the young man who shined in the ranger assessment." Popla replied calmly.

"Ranger assessment? No, how do you gym leaders know?"

"You don't know the temper of our alliance president? He has always been determined to discover talented trainers with great potential, regardless of origin or position."

"He has shown all the people who have performed well in a large number of assessments to us, the gym owners."

"It's just that they want us to recruit them as trainee trainers in the gym, and then compete in the competition next year. Compared with the undefeated legend, the popularity of defeating the undefeated legend is greater, isn't it?" Popla explained with a smile.

"Hmph, sooner or later a guy like Roz... wait a minute, Popola, who is the guy doing the assessment?"

"Ji Qing Gym Leader Kawu, the win is quite impressive."

"That's natural!" Mr. Gaede said with a little pride.

Popla nodded, then turned and left the restaurant. Mr. Gaede glanced at the plate and found that two small witch hat-shaped candy ornaments were missing.

"Wait a minute for this guy. That boy Nie Zi, why didn't you tell me about this? No, I have to train him carefully later. It's just the peak of the challenge. I have to make him take those juniors seriously!"

A hint of fierceness flashed in the corner of Mr. Gaede's eyes. Nie Zi, who was composing a piece of music, felt an inexplicable chill when his phone vibrated.

Nie Zi picked it up with a look of boredom, and then glanced at it.

"Ah, news about the alliance? It doesn't matter." As he said that, Nie Zi threw his phone aside and continued to compose music, thinking that if he was disturbed again, he would just block the news about the alliance.

In front of the wooden house, because Ergui Ping likes candies in the shape of ponkans, Xia Ye is trying to make candies of the same shape on her own.

The Banglui King Kong was beating the fruit from the tree to squeeze the juice, while the Ergui was cheering on the side, looking very much looking forward to it.

She obviously looks like a ponkan, but she likes to eat ponkan-shaped candies. Xia Ye shook her head, forget it, let’s not go into details.

"Xia Ye! A strange old woman has come to the Dream Forest! Come quickly!"

Suddenly, Blimwen's voice came into Xia Ye's mind, strange old woman? What did the old man do in Sunset Forest?

Xia Ye put down the mixed syrup in his hand, turned around and walked into the house, preparing to put it into a natural storage box with non-melting ice.

"Bo?" Ergui made a questioning voice.

"Sorry, Ergui, I have something to deal with in the Dream Forest. Let's make candies later. Let's go to the Dream Forest first."

"Bonnie!"

The sorrow quickly turned into joy, ok, I can eat butter again! Which flavor of cream are you going to eat today?

In the dream forest, Popola held an umbrella and stared at the three-color mixed-flavor cream fairy wearing a little witch hat in front of her with a satisfied smile. According to her judging criteria, it was really 'pink'!

Brimwen hid behind the tree. It tried to sense Popola's emotions, and the result was dreamy, even dreamier than the Dream Forest.

So it quickly realized something was wrong and chose to call Xia Ye over.

When Xia Ye saw Popula's curved back, he realized that this day had finally come. This should be his first meeting with someone who encountered a distortion of time and space.

The original quirky little girl turned into an old woman. This is the power of time.

"Ms. Popola." Xia Ye walked over slowly.

Popula slowly turned around and saw Xia Ye's face. The originally vague childhood memories began to become clear. She showed a kind smile:

"You don't have to be so reserved, Xia Ye, but the appearance of this Frosty Milk Fairy really deserves praise, and your Pokémon..." Popla's tone was full of emotion.

"It seems that the Pa Dong Monkey has evolved into the Thunder King Kong Ape. Well, it looks very reliable."

"This Pokémon's name is Urquick, right? It's a cute kid."

As she said that, Popla looked at where Blimwen was hiding: "And this Blimwen, if I'm not mistaken, it's your Pokémon, right?"

"My premonitions are always accurate, but it's rare to see Brimwen with a lively personality."

Blimwen stuck his head out in embarrassment. Is its concealment technology so bad? It was seen twice in a row.

The King Kong Banglui's expression was a bit shocked. The old woman in front of him was actually Popola, the Popola it had seen in the Stray Light Forest? !

Then, Popula took a deep breath, looked at Xia Ye, and said solemnly:

"Well, then, please accept my eighty-year late thanks, Xia Ye, thank you for saving my father, thank you for giving my mother a happy rest of her life, thank you for protecting my dream, I have been holding on to it until The dream now.”

Poplar is the oldest gym owner in the Galar region. She took over the position of gym owner at the age of fifteen and has been active in her position to this day.

In recent interviews every year, someone will ask her why she has been able to persist for so long. To this, she always answers with a smile. It is very simple. Dreams and promises, aren’t they worth persisting in?
