Pokemon Dawn

"Thank you for your advice, Miss Lijia."

Taking back the unconscious fire dinosaur, Xiaoye bowed to Lijia.

There was no special expression on the young trainer's face, but the Pichu on his shoulders puffed up his face unwillingly.

"It's such a gratifying battle. The little girl feels full of energy." The woman wearing an orange kimono walked up to Xiao Ye and performed a routine post-match handshake.

Of course, Xiaoye knew that what Lijia said was just polite words. Looking at this battle where she was suppressed from all sides, there was really nothing to praise.

She got her illustrated book back from the battle recorder. Just as Xiaoye was about to leave, Rika stopped her.

"Please wait a moment." Lijia, who had just finished a crushing battle, said with a smile and opened her palms to Xiaoye, "You forgot something."

On the palm of the hand, the metal product is dotted with the eight colors of the rainbow.

Rainbow badge?

"But, Miss Lijia, I did not pass your test." Xiaoye cast a slightly doubtful look at Lijia.

"That's true. You are a talented newcomer, but your current strength is still far from what the little girl requires for a challenger. The little girl has to defeat you." The woman covered her sleeves and curled her eyes, "So

, this is not a certificate of success in the challenge, but a personal thank you gift from this little lady to you."

"Thank you...?"

"Kyoji-kun has conveyed what happened yesterday to the little girl." Rika gently put the rainbow badge into Xiaoye's hand, "I am very grateful to you and your companions for your heroic actions in facing the poachers and taking back the Pokémon.

The woman expressed her sincere gratitude."

Yesterday afternoon, when Rika rushed back to Rainbow City, the commotion at the Green Field Cup had completely subsided. Only Kyoji himself remained at Rainbow Elementary School, waiting for the arrival of the teacher.

Although he did not tell the truth to the trainers involved in the incident, Keiji would never hide anything from Rika. Through Keiji’s narration, Rika learned everything that happened in the Green Field Cup - including Kiriha

The three of them went to the poacher base alone and successfully rescued all the Pokémon.

Li Jia is one of the organizers of the Green Field Cup, and the actions of the three people have undoubtedly helped her a lot. The favors owed must be exchanged, which is the most basic etiquette for nobles.

Therefore, Li Jia made plans to visit and express her gratitude last night. When looking through the three people's entry information to determine their contact information, Li Jia recognized Xiao Ye's identity.

——He is the first new trainer to book a challenge tomorrow.

So, for trainers, it may be a better choice to express their gratitude through this gym battle.

As a dedicated gym leader, Li Jia always checks the challenger's battle resume in advance to decide on the guidance method. Xiaoye's battle resume is very simple, so simple that it is almost blank - she debuted at the beginning of the year and has only participated in four official competitions.

Gym battles, and the winning rate is 100%.

It can be seen that this is a newcomer with relatively outstanding talents. The events during the day seem to prove this. The newcomer trainer named "Xingyu Ye" has the courage to go into danger alone and face the enemy directly, and after going through four roads

The strength tested by the gym will not be too bad.

If the challenger is a young trainer with less experience, even if their strength is not inferior to that of their peers, they will not be allowed to win too many consecutive victories - this is the default guiding rule of every gym leader.

.Teenage is a time when the mind is impetuous and it is easy to be passionate. Blindly winning will only make young people become overconfident and lack the awareness to examine themselves.

As a newcomer who has only been out for three months, Xiaoye's strength is actually enough to reach the excellent level. But Li Jia still chooses to defeat her severely. The reason is to let this newcomer who has had a smooth journey feel the power of a real strong person.

Understand the distance between "rear" and "front".

In fact, Xiaoye herself is different from Li Jia's imagination. Most of the new trainers who dare to break into the poacher's base are somewhat reckless and impulsive, but Xiaoye's character is completely opposite and calm. No matter it is

Whether it was the conversation before the battle or the response during the battle, or when she faced the fact that she was defeated after the battle, Xiaoye never showed any obvious emotions, making Lijia completely unable to figure out what this newcomer was thinking.

However, it doesn't matter. Rika has never chosen a strong fighting style just to defeat newcomers.

As long as the young people in the challenger seats have really touched the higher realms, broadened their horizons, and gained insights from it - Li Jia's guidance will have achieved its fundamental goal.

====================

Although she explained that she didn't contribute much, Xiaoye still accepted the rainbow badge due to Li Jia's insistence.

The badge itself represents the recognition of the trainer by the gym owner. There are many examples of losing the battle but getting the badge. Xiaoye does not have the stubborn sense of winning or losing like a hot-blooded boy. Since Li Jia decided to give away the badge, there is nothing wrong with accepting it.

not good.

After saying goodbye to Li Jia, Xiaoye walked out of the Rainbow Gym and sighed in a deserted corner.

Ah, what a complete failure. Is Rainbow Gym actually such a difficult gym? There doesn’t seem to be such a review on the gt forum...

Skillfully smoothing the little Pichu's hair, Xiaoye still had a calm expression that Li Jia couldn't see through, but her heart was already full of ripples.

"Hey, Pichu."

"What mound?"

"Sorry, we may have no food."

"……mound???!!"

Rainbow Gym is Xiaoye’s fifth gym since her debut, so the winning bonus is 3500pd, and the defeat penalty is the same. After deducting this money, the balance of Xiaoye’s bank card is——

43pd.

It is simply a number that can make people laugh out loud.

Ever since she bought the plug-in in Dead Leaf City, Xiaoye's financial situation has been very tight. The Green Field Cup was only played for one and a half games before being interrupted by poachers, and the amount won was only 800pd. Rainbow Gym's

The defeat was a blow to the head. The fact of the disastrous defeat did not cause the slightest blow to Xiaoye - Xiaoye was not a fledgling child who was easily frustrated - but the "huge" fine hit Xiaoye hard.

With less than 100pd of change, I couldn't even buy the cheapest medicine for injuries. It was absolutely impossible to survive to the next city with this little money.

"I didn't expect that the desperate situation would come so soon..." Xiao Ye laughed bitterly and glanced at the tearful little Pichu apologetically.

Facts have proven that buying and selling without considering deposits can kill people.

"Ah ah ah ah what should master do? Qiu..." Pichu had already fallen into a panic vortex, looking like he was holding his head in confusion.

"Yeah, what should I do..."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

"And there are no competitions suitable for newcomers to participate in Rainbow City recently..."

"Ah ah ah ah ah will we starve to death? Will we starve to death? Qiu..."

"It seems I can only go to work."

"Ahhhh... Qiu?"

Facing Piqiu's dull gaze, Xiaoye nodded, "There is no other way. My travel plans are on hold. Let's find a temporary job in Rainbow City first."

"...I want to find Qiu Qaq, who is in charge of food!"
