Pokemon Dawn

Even compared to Gyarados, who has the most experience in combat, Riolu is no less brave and skilled in battle. He was born in a giant tree forest where grass-type Pokémon are extremely exclusive. He has experienced countless battles since he was a child and has never been afraid of the enemy.

.This kind of Riolu certainly has reliable strength, but when it tried to fight under Xiaoye's command, it encountered quite a problem.

It has formed its own unique fighting habits and judgment, and it is difficult for it to completely obey other people's instructions. Of course, Riolu does not reject Xiaoye himself, and wants to try to follow the instructions to fight, but the fighting instinct formed over many years is not

It's not that easy to reverse.

One person and one Pokémon started with the simplest instructions, running, jumping or using moves, and the progress up to this point was very smooth. However, when it came to actual combat training, various problems began to arise in the cooperation between the two parties.

For example, Riolu instinctively dodged the opponent's attack before Xiaoye's instructions were given, or he habitually attacked without receiving instructions - after an hour of this, even the opponent Pichu was exhausted mentally and physically.

.

"Is it really that difficult to follow instructions?" Pichu's ears almost curled up into the shape of question marks. "Even a guy as stupid as Charizard can do it."

Charizard was shot with an arrow with a blank look on his face. He turned around and saw that Riolu's face was filled with unacceptable expression after being criticized in such a way. He was immediately aggrieved and deformed.

Riolu scratched his head and repeated "obey the instructions" many times in his mind, but as soon as the fight started, his original shape appeared again. The pace of the battle was very fast, and all actions were done in one thought. The result of just restraining himself was

He stiffened into a pillar, and before he could react when he heard Xiao Ye shouting "Fa Jin", he was hit by Pichu's tail.

Looking at the already dark sky, Pichu sighed, "I really didn't expect to have to accompany you to train Qiu for such a simple thing. You see, Snow Boy is almost asleep, Qiu!"

Riolu turned around and saw that the well-fed Yukidouzi was already lying on the ground and fell asleep.

My battle just now... was that boring? Riolu fell into deep self-doubt.

Xiao Ye shook her head and gently poked Snow Boy's little hand to wake her up, "Yuki Boy, if you are sleepy, just go back to the elf ball and sleep?"

Yukidouzi thought vaguely for a while, nodded, and hit the red and white ball on Xiaoye's waist.

Then...he covered his head and sat blankly on the ground.

Xiaoye couldn't help but smile and picked up the empty elf ball that was knocked away by Yukidouzi, "Wrong, it's not this one."

Yukidouji finally woke up a little now. He spotted the ball with the small Yukidouzi Q-version sticker on it and hit it, turning into a red light and entering the ball. Xiaoye's other hand that was about to take the elf ball froze.

In the air, I reluctantly put it down.

It was so anxious that it returned to the Poké Ball with a headbutt. It seemed that it was really sleepy.

Seeing that Riolu next to her had ended her self-loathing, Xiaoye smiled encouragingly at the blue puppy.

"So……"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiaoye heard a slight "click" sound coming from behind her.

Their current location is next to the trees at the end of the beach. There are many dead branches and leaves scattered on the ground, and they will make such a crisp sound when stepped on.

However, when she heard this familiar voice, Xiaoye instinctively felt a chill all over her body.

All the Pokémon were in front of her. Under the coverage of the waveguide detection, there was no breath of any creature behind her. So, who could have made this obvious stampeding sound?

The crisis alarm ringing in her mind dissipated the vague feeling of familiarity. Xiaoye flicked the empty elf ball in her hand without hesitation, throwing it as a hidden weapon in the direction of the sound, and at the same time used the opportunity to fly quickly

Turning around, the brilliance of the waveguide power has wrapped around his right hand.

Then... then Xiaoye froze in place with an embarrassed look on her face.

The silver-haired young man caught the red and white ball steadily and joked, "Xiaoye, do you really want to conquer me?"

Facing the identical ice blue eyes of the father and son in front of her, Xiaoye was speechless for three seconds before answering, "Yeah, I didn't succeed last time, so I have to try again this time."

It’s no wonder Xinghai would say such a sigh. The scene in front of her was almost exactly the same as when Xiaoye and Xinghai met for the first time in the underground base of Rainbow City - they were also unable to sense each other’s aura, and they were also smashing empty elf balls as weapons.

Going out to buy time to respond, recalling this, Xiao Ye suddenly felt that she should reflect on whether her combat routine was too single.

Seeing Xiaotian looking at her with a puzzled look, Xiaoye quickly waved her hand, "Sorry, I just detected your breath during the day. I didn't expect that I can't sense it now. I thought someone with malicious intentions was approaching...

…Mr. Xinghai, is this your family’s ancestral secret technique?”

"It's not a secret technique, just a little trick to hide the aura." Xinghai smiled and returned the elf ball to Xiaoye, "What a pity, you failed to conquer it this time~"

Xiaoye covered her face and said, "I'm really sorry. I won't try to conquer you for the third time..."

As early as when they first met in Rainbow City, Xiaoye knew that Xinghai had the ability to hide its own aura and make it impossible to detect by waveguide detection. Unexpectedly, even Xiaotian had learned this trick. It seemed that in the future, one must be careful when throwing concealed weapons.

She didn't want to smash the Poké Ball in her captain's face.

Xinghai and Xiaotian came here after detecting that Xiaoye hadn't left yet - Xiaoye didn't ask them why they knew their location. Even Xiaoye could detect the location of Shenyu and his son from a long distance. For Xinghai, it was very difficult to sense Xiaoye.

Positioning is even easier.

Although Xiaoye didn't feel the power of other waveguides passing by from above at all, she was a little doubtful whether Mr. Xinghai's waveguide power also had a concealment effect.

"Xiaoye, why don't you go back?" Xiaotian really doesn't think that night is the time to train in the wilderness.

"Well, today's training mission is not completed yet." Xiaoye nodded.

Xiaotian looked at the depressed Riolu and the even more depressed Pichu, "Have you encountered a problem?"

"It's not really a problem."

Seeing that Xiaotian and Xinghai had no intention of leaving immediately, Xiaoye briefly described the problems Riolu encountered.

Xinghai was the first to express his understanding of this. Many experienced trainers will also face this problem after taming very powerful wild Pokémon. The better they are at fighting, the more difficult it is for wild Pokémon to fully accept humans.

According to Xinghai, he himself once subdued the leader of a group, and it took him several months to gradually be able to cooperate with each other.

"Don't be too anxious. There is enough time before the start of the Quartz League to get used to it." Xinghai blinked at Riolu who was obviously in a bad mood.

"Yes." Xiaoye nodded in response.

When Xiaoye was considering whether to give up today's training, Xiaotian suddenly said, "Xiaoye, let's fight."

"Eh?"

"I think for Riolu, the opponent is a Pokémon that also follows instructions, which will make it adapt faster." Xiaotian explained, taking out the Pokémon ball under Xinghai's approving gaze, "How about it?"

Xiaoye thought for a while, swallowed back the habitual "That's too troublesome for you" and then nodded with a smile.

"Thank you, please."

As a result, the training content was temporarily changed, and Pichu finally no longer had to be a painful sparring partner. Riolu's new opponent was Xiaotian's flying mantis.

This Pokémon is one of the veterans in Xiaotian's team. Xiaoye has seen it many times on Red Lotus Island. It and Xiaotian have a tacit understanding gained after countless battles, and they are not used to working with trainers.

The coordinated Riolu can be described as two extremes.

The battle between them lasted from the darkening of the sky until the stars and the moon emerged. Riolu's performance was still so bad, but seeing the humans and Pokémon on the opposite side walking in unison, even breathing in the same frequency as each other, Riolu also

I really felt something.

At the end of the training, the silver-haired human walked up to it and said a few words to it.

"If you really want to be her partner, trust her and completely entrust her with the outcome of the battle."

"——Since you chose her as your partner, you should be able to do it."

Riolu, who was used to being a lone ranger, didn't quite understand the meaning of "entrustment", but he did remember what the boy said seriously and looked forward to the future in the near future.

It also wants to be like the boy and the flying mantis, fighting side by side with the trainer it recognizes - this is a wish that has existed since the last day of the land beyond.

The training time passed day by day. Xiaoye and Xiaotian still met occasionally in the back mountain and fought against each other to hone their skills. With Xiaotian's help intentionally or unintentionally, Riolu grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and was already able to

Show off to Pichu that you have successfully executed ten consecutive instructions from the trainer.

Although he will still be ridiculed by the electric mouse with three sentences and his head will be snatched away.

More than ten days later, Gyarados appeared on the southern coast. It was covered with crisscross scars and looked tired and embarrassed, but it had undergone amazing changes. After seeing the new abilities it had acquired, Xiaoye asked in surprise

What exactly happened to it, Gyarados stubbornly refused to tell his experience.

Pichu, who was very curious, was tortured to the point of jumping up and down. He spent his whole life's language skills, but still couldn't get Gyarados to speak. He only received many condescending looks - which made Pichu express his desire to discharge.

After stopping the internal strife with ease, Xiao Ye didn't ask any more questions. Gyarados has a straightforward and rough personality, and usually never hides anything. If it refuses to speak, it may mean that its experience in the past half month can only belong to the sea.

The secrets of the Pokémon in it.

Moreover, there were new changes in other team members that attracted Xiaoye's attention.

——She discovered that Charizard's water resistance was weakened.

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

Small theater:

Riolu: (Proud) I can already execute ten commands in a row without making any mistakes! How about it? Isn't it awesome?

Pichu: (Half Moon Eyes) So I can laugh at you once every ten commands.

Riolu:......!!!(angry)
