You're not allowed to play Pokémon!

Chapter 58 Welcome all talented young people to come and challenge us.
Saturday, October 11.

Early in the morning, Qingyu sat in the hall waiting for the challengers to come and challenge her, and also analyzed Xinli's battle videos to see what tactics she might use next week.

Because of the special training he received last night targeting Taijinghua, Ibrahimovic was still sleeping soundly in his bedroom;

Riolu performed consistently, maintaining its habit of getting up early for a morning run. By the time Qingyu woke up, it was already long gone.

So, the only ones in charge of the dojo were Aoba himself and Nemo, who seemed even more excited than him.

"Teacher Qingyu, will there really be a lot of people coming to challenge the dojo today?"

While Qingyu was watching a video, Nemo had already asked the same question for who knows how many times.

When Qingyu turned and met her expectant, star-filled eyes, she smiled helplessly.

"Probably. Before I ended the stream yesterday, a lot of viewers said they wanted to give it a try. Anyway, let's prepare in advance."

It wasn't until yesterday that Qingyu suddenly realized a very important factor affecting the popularity of his dojo—

Thanks to the widespread availability of education, most of the new trainers in the Padilla region who have time to challenge gyms are now students at Orange Academy.

According to the league's rules, students are not allowed to leave the campus except during the Road to Champions period each semester.

So it's perfectly normal that there was no one around on the previous workdays; they were probably still at the college preparing for final exams...

But today is Saturday, so the school can't control them anymore.

The Sunshine Dojo, which is close to Okada City and has been quite popular recently, is really attractive to them.

"Great! Hopefully, there will be challengers with similar strength to me!"

Nemo nodded repeatedly.

As a dojo apprentice, it's normal for him to help the dojo master solve problems and deal with several challengers, right?

I haven't had a chance to spar with Teacher Qingyu for the past few days, it's so boring!
"of course can."

Qingyu nodded.

Under his (Green Breeding Notes) guidance, Nemo and her Bup also grew very quickly.

It's probably not far from evolving into a groundhog.

"Knock Knock Knock-"

While they were chatting, there was a knock on the door of the dojo.

"Oh, oh, oh, finally a challenger has arrived?!"

Before Qingyu could react, Nemo immediately got up and ran over to open the door.

She opened the door, looked down, and only found a messenger bird carrying a package. Her excited expression instantly vanished.

"Goo?"

The messenger bird tilted its head and made a confused call.

It's really rare to see a human being hate seeing themselves...

Wait, she doesn't want to return it, does she?

"I was just about to remind you..."

Qingyu walked over, looked at the completely petrified Nemo, and couldn't help but laugh and cry.

Nemo is truly true to her independent and unconventional nature.

"These are the crystal fragments and balloons I ordered, right? They arrived so quickly!"

Qingyu squatted down, signed for the package according to the procedure, and quickly received her online shopping package from the messenger bird.

It must be said that Pokémon integrated into human society are far more efficient than humans in various industries.

Besides messenger bird delivery, there are also Totoro/Dragonite Logistics, Megatron Moving Company, Master Architect Construction, and more...

Human life has never been so convenient; no wonder the Pokémon world has become a utopian society.

"Goo~"

The messenger bird waved its hand and emitted a long, drawn-out call.

Qingyu actually felt that she vaguely understood what it meant...

Please remember to leave a good review, dear~
It seems that the languages ​​of humans and Pokémon are mutually intelligible to some extent.

"Not a challenger after all..."

Nemo only recovered after the messenger bird had flown far away, and she became quite dejected.

"It will happen, just be patient."

In response, Qingyu could only offer words of comfort.

As Nemo officially became a trainer, her battling prowess seemed to be gradually unleashed.

A desire to battle is never a bad thing for trainers, after all, actual battles are the best way to improve their skills. No wonder Nemo became a speedrun champion.

As Qingyu was thinking this, she suddenly noticed a boy in a school uniform holding a red and white ball appearing not far away.

"Hello, I heard this is the Sunshine Dojo that's been getting really famous lately?"

Seeing Qingyu looking at him, the boy greeted her politely.

"My name is Okamoto, and I'm here to challenge the gym!"

Suddenly, a new challenger appeared. Qingyu and Nemo exchanged a glance and then simultaneously smiled kindly.

"Welcome to Sunny Dojo! We welcome all talented young boys to come and challenge us!"

……

"Your dojo exam actually includes questions?"

Looking at the exam paper in his hand, Okamoto's expression was clearly tense.

As a popular figure in his class and whose parents are both elite trainers, Okamoto won four gym badges in his first attempt at the Champion Road last year, so he is quite familiar with the gym battle process.

Although the gyms in Padia always have some weird little games before the challenge, at least they are still unique.

But why is the trial at your little dojo a test of solving problems?

Suppressing the urge to complain, Okamoto glanced at the questions on the exam paper.

Then, unsurprisingly, they were dumbfounded.

"What kind of questions are these?!"

Okamoto's lips twitched.

What tree fruit can relieve sleepiness?
What are the effects of the "tech expert" trait?
Asking such detailed questions, is this a dojo assessment or a researcher interview?
It really is a mediocre gym; no wonder it didn't advance to the eighth gym level.

If it weren't for the fact that his classmates recently told him that the gym leader of this dojo is incredibly skilled, even the Elite Four member is no match for him in terms of tactics, he would have left right now.

In order to be the first to pass the dojo exam and show off to his classmates when he got back, he patiently looked at Qingyu to the side.

"Can we start the battle without doing the questions?"

"you sure?"

Qingyu raised an eyebrow, clearly not expecting the first challenger to skip over the crucial information.

You're very brave!

Players who skip the tutorial and go straight to the boss are like—

"Of course, I'm very capable, so let's stop with these unnecessary assessments!"

Okamoto looked very confident.

But he didn't seem to notice that Nemo, who was serving as the referee for this match near the center line, was now looking at him with an almost pitying expression.

So he's not a fan of Qingyu-sensei after all; no wonder he's so confident.

I wonder if I'll still be able to laugh after witnessing Teacher Qingyu's tactics...

"Then, as you wish, let's get straight to the point."

Qingyu's main strategy is to listen to advice.

Since this student wants to start quickly, let's just let him be.

"Before the battle begins, please allow me to say a few more words."

Okamoto nodded.

Having challenged many dojos, he naturally knew that each dojo master would say some inexplicable things before the challenge.

Perhaps it's for the sake of a sense of ritual?

Although I don't understand, I respect it.

"I have always believed that the trainer's skill level is the most important factor in Pokémon battles, and this ability is closely related to the trainer's basic common sense."

"Whether you can see through your opponent's intentions and unleash the full power of your Pokémon determines whether you can become an excellent trainer."

As she spoke, Qingyu's lips curled up slightly as she took out a red and white ball.

"Strive to shine, challenger."

"Go, Mushroom Hat!"

A flash of red light appeared, and the straw mushroom appeared in front of Qingyu.
