Pokémon: Shiny Attractor

The old man was in trouble.

At the entrance of the Tokiwa Gym in Tokiwa City, Wutong and his group looked at the rebuilt Tokiwa Gym in front of them and fell into deep thought.

"I remember that the owner of the Tokiwa Gym was Sakaki, right?" Xiao Ming said.

"Yes, it's the boss of the Rocket Team, Sakaki." Xiao Mao nodded and said.

"In other words, the Tokiwa Gym should be unmanaged now, right?" Xiao Ming continued to ask.

"Do you think it looks like it's unmanaged?" Shinji asked back.

At this time, outside the Tokiwa Gym, there were many trainers gathered there, looking like they wanted to go in but didn't dare.

"Excuse me, excuse me, what are you doing? Why are you all gathered here and not going in?" Xiao Gang took the initiative to walk up and asked.

"We heard that the Viridian Gym has reopened, so we wanted to challenge it." Trainer A said.

"But when we got here, we heard that the current gym leader of the Viridian Gym is very scary!" said Trainer B.

"I heard that the gym leader has been hiding in the darkness! All those who saw his true appearance were killed!" said Trainer C.

"I heard that the new gym leader is not a human at all! He has three legs and a terrifying voice, and controls the darkness to swallow all the trainers who go to challenge him!" said Trainer D.

More and more trainers began to talk about the "secret information" they had inquired about, but the style of painting became more and more outrageous.

A trainer from the Sinnoh region even said that the current gym leader of the Viridian Gym is the incarnation of Giratina, whose goal is to rule the world and overthrow Arceus.

"Okay, okay, don't say anything. Since you don't plan to go in, don't gather here." Wutong said helplessly to disperse these trainers.

"We are the Pokémon Inspectors, and we are going to inspect the Tokiwa Gym now, so please all leave first. If there is any news about the Tokiwa Gym, we will deal with it!" Xiao Mao took out his P.I.A. certificate and said.

"If you continue to stay here, we have the right to hand you over to Miss Junsha in the name of violating official duties." Shinji said coldly.

"So, hurry up and train those who need to train, replenish those who need to replenish supplies, don't believe those rumors, the alliance will not ignore the gym with problems." Xiao Ming waved his hand and said at last.

After hearing the words of the four people, the trainers who were watching the show could only leave helplessly. Obviously, compared to challenging the Tokiwa Gym, these guys mainly want to eat melons.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a group of pathetic bastards." Wutong shook his head and said as he looked at the trainers who left.

"Okay, okay, let's go in and take a look. It's not okay to ignore the gym with strange legends." Xiao Mao patted Wutong on the shoulder and walked in first while talking.

"I hope it's not a troublesome matter." Xiao Ming followed in with his hands behind his head.

Shinji didn't say much, but seeing the Poké Ball he was holding in his hand, it was estimated that this guy was ready for the battle.

Looking at the four people who walked into the Tokiwa Gym, Xiaogang was a little dazed. When did these four guys become so reliable?

If Wutong and the others knew Xiaogang's thoughts, their answers would probably be completely consistent.

Of course, when they were working.

After entering the Tokiwa Gym, the whole environment suddenly became dim, and there was only a barely visible carpet-paved road leading to the depths of the Tokiwa Gym.

There was no sound except the footsteps of a few people. The vague coldness surrounded them, making the entire Tokiwa Gym even more gloomy.

Everyone followed the carpet all the way and came to the battle field of the Tokiwa Gym.

Because of the skylight, the battle field was finally not dark.

A figure could be vaguely seen in the deeper place on the opposite side, but the upper body of the person was completely hidden in the darkness and could not be seen clearly.

Only from the long skirt and crutches on the lower body could it be seen that it should be an old woman.

"A new challenger? Are you ready?" The old woman's voice sounded dry and hoarse, which made people feel cold.

After the old woman's voice fell, Wutong and others clearly felt a chill.

Shinji and others directly entered the battle state, while Wutong was thoughtful.

"Grandma Kikuko, is that you?" Wutong asked.

"Ah?" ×4 Shinji and the other four all looked at Wutong in surprise.

"Huh? Is this voice, Xiaotong?" The old woman on the opposite side asked in a dry voice

.

After saying that, he walked out of the darkness. As expected, it was the ghost king, Kikuko, one of the four kings in the Kanto region.

"It's you, but what's wrong with your voice?" Wutong walked over and asked with concern.

"Grandma Kikuko, long time no see." Xiaomao seemed a little scared of this old friend of his grandfather, and spoke a little restrained.

"Hmph, the kid from the Oak family is here too." Kikuko looked at Xiaomao and said with disdain.

"King Kikuko, hello." ×3 Facing the king, the remaining three people also greeted him obediently.

"It's because there is no gym leader in the Tokiwa Gym now, and the alliance is short of manpower, so I have time to temporarily replace the gym leader of the Tokiwa Gym. As a result, all the trainers came in a swarm. I said more in one day than I did in the past year, so my voice naturally became hoarse." Kikuko said a little angrily.

"Then why don't you turn on the lights? It's so cold in the house, which is not good for your health." Wutong continued to ask.

"When the Tokiwa Gym was first built, there was a problem with the circuit system, so I couldn't turn on the lights. Later, I got used to it, and my Pokémon also prefer dark environments. As for the cold, look around you." Kikuko said.

Gengar, Haunter, Gastly... A large number of Gengar family members appeared next to Wutong and the others.

And the Gengar with a darker color making faces next to Wutong was obviously Kikuko's trump card.

Everyone was sweating profusely. No wonder they suddenly felt a chill when they entered the Tokiwa Gym. It turned out that they had been monitored by these "ghosts".

"The Tokiwa Gym is back in business, and there are always some guys with bad intentions who want to sneak in. I simply let Gengar and the others move freely in the gym and deal with those guys." Kikuko said a little irritably.

It seems that being the temporary gym leader of the Tokiwa Gym is not that easy.

"Grandma Kikuko, let me make something to soothe your throat. Your throat will be damaged if you keep doing this. Don't talk for the next few days. You need to take good care of your throat." Wutong said with a little force as Kikuko's hoarse and dry voice sounded.

Seeing Wutong's caring look, Kikuko was very happy, as if she had a grandson. However, she had a very close relationship with Anzi, and Wutong himself was half her grandson.

"But the Tokiwa Gym still needs to be open. You four should work for Kona, let me rest, and then let the Tokiwa Gym close again. Is that okay?" Kikuko asked back.

"Don't worry, Grandma Kikuko, we will help manage the Tokiwa Gym for a few days. As for the future, I will also think of a way. As for the acting gym owner, I am familiar with this job." Wutong patted his chest and said confidently.

Since Shinji did not refute what Wutong said, after all, this guy has been helping Ah Si look after the gym for a long time.

As a gym owner, he can be said to be very skilled.

As for the task of acting as gym leader together, none of them refused, and they were even full of interest (especially Shinji). They have always been challengers, and it is also interesting to be the challenged occasionally, isn't it?

"Is that so... Well, I'll leave it to you." Kikuko thought for a while and said.

She had heard about Wutong helping Ah Si to act as gym leader, and as a double champion of the Quartz Conference and the Silver Conference, Wutong had no problem with strength.

In addition to Ah Quan and Xingzi behind Wutong, and Adu, Kona, Shiba and herself, Wutong can be said to have a good family background and no problem at all.

From this point of view, Wutong is really suitable to temporarily take over the gym leader of Tokiwa Gym with his experience, strength and background.

Moreover, Wutong's ancestral home is also in Tokiwa City, so even the household registration is not a problem.

The more Kikuko thought about it, the more she felt that Wutong was suitable. If she didn't want Wutong to continue traveling and complete his growth in strength, Kikuko would even want to recommend Wutong as the official gym leader of Tokiwa Gym.

Xiaogang on the side was confused when he saw the interaction between Wutong and Kikuko. What was going on? Although he guessed that Wutong had an unusual background, he didn't expect it to be this serious.

It looked like a grandson and a grandmother loving each other!

"I'll take Grandma Kikuko to rest first. I'll leave the gym work to you. I'll be back as soon as possible." Wutong said to Shinji and the others.

This was also to take care of the feelings of Shinji and the others. Although Kikuko looked like a kind grandmother to Wutong, she was famous for being serious and cold when facing other people.

Especially since Xiaomao was there, it would be strange if she could have a good face to Xiaomao given the love-hate relationship between Kikuko and Professor Oak.

"I'm not that old yet." Kikuko looked at Wutong and took the initiative to intervene. "

Dissatisfied".

"Of course I know that grandma Kikuko is still strong, but it's so dark here, it would be bad if she tripped over something." Wutong said with a smile.

Seeing Wutong and Kikuko leave, Xiaomao breathed a sigh of relief.

For Kikuko, his grandfather's "old lover", Xiaomao really didn't know how to face him, and he was even a little scared.

"Then first of all, turn on all the lights." Xiaogang said after looking at the surrounding environment.

Although Kikuko left, her Gastly, Haunter and other Pokémon were still here, and these ghost-type Pokémon acted as guides.

Guided the four people to find various switches and functional equipment in the Tokiwa Gym.

Following Kikuko to the lounge in the Tokiwa Gym, Wutong asked Kikuko to sit down and rest, and he went to the kitchen to start making throat-clearing and throat-moistening foods.

Generally speaking, the most common foods for throat-clearing and throat-moistening are honey, pears, lemons and the like.

But in the Pokémon world, there is definitely nothing else besides honey, but there are limu and pear similar to pears, and lemon fruit similar to lemon.

So Wutong took out a few limu and pear, and a lemon fruit.

First, wash the lemon fruit, rub the lemon fruit skin with salt, then cut the lemon fruit into thin slices, and pick out the seeds inside to avoid bitterness.

Then put the cut lemon fruit into a mortar and crush it thoroughly to release the aroma of the lemon fruit.

Put the processed lemon Simmer on low heat in the lemon fruit. At this time, wash the limo and pear fruit, peel them, cut them into appropriate small pieces, and put them into the pot to simmer together.

Because limo, pear fruit and lemon fruit are sour fruits, a large amount of honey needs to be added to neutralize them.

Of course, you can't add them immediately. Long-term stewing will destroy the structure of honey and affect the taste and effect of honey.

Wait until the limo and pear fruit have been stewed until soft, then add the premium honey brewed by the queen bee.

Stir and simmer on low heat until it is soft. After the sweetness is fully integrated with the limoncello and pear fruit, you can turn off the fire.

Let it cool down naturally, and it is best to eat it when it is warm.

Sitting opposite Kikuko, watching Kikuko slowly eat the food she made, Wutong asked: "Grandma Kikuko, if I want to apply for the position of temporary gym leader of Tokiwa, is the success rate high?"

"Why, are you interested in being a gym leader? Don't you plan to continue traveling? And Adu should just let you go." Kikuko ate the food made by Wutong, and her throat was indeed much more comfortable, and she asked slowly.

"No, I just think that being an acting gym leader is also a good way to train Pokémon, and as long as the gym can be guaranteed to operate normally during the agency period, there will be no problem, right? "Wutong shook his head and said.

Although being a gym leader is not bad, it is definitely not now. After all, he still plans to dominate the conference in the entire region.

And he does have a suitable candidate around him, who can not only make his Pokémon obedient, but also manage the Tokiwa Gym.

"It seems that you want to find someone to manage the Tokiwa Gym for you?" Kikuko's words seemed to acquiesce that Wutong became the acting gym leader of the Tokiwa Gym.

"Yes, I have a very suitable little guy here." Wutong nodded and replied.

"Really, since you have this idea, I will recommend it to you. After all, the alliance can't find anyone now. If someone can help solve the mess of the Tokiwa Gym, I think they will be very happy." Kikuko said.

"Thank you, Grandma Kikuko, I won't let you down." Wutong responded politely.

"Okay, since the things have been done and what you want to say has been said, go find your friends quickly. It's boring to accompany an old woman like me here. "Kikuko said, "Get rid of them."

"How could that be? It's very interesting to chat with you, Grandma Kikuko. You can rest here. I'll go and tidy up the Tokiwa Gym." Wutong replied.
