Elf Trader: My trump card is the Light/Dark Mantis.

She was somewhat looking forward to seeing how these two Pokémon would perform in their battle.

……

Soon, inside the Rainbow Gym.

Lijia and the challenger in front of her exchanged greetings.

The newcomer was a somewhat indifferent-looking young man, wearing a dark jacket, tightly clutching his Poké Ball.

The referee shouted loudly from the side.

"This time, the battle will be between Rainbow City Gym Leader Rika and Pallet Town's Silver."

"The rules are 2 vs 2, the gym leader cannot change their Pokémon, but the challenger can change their Pokémon."

"Now the game begins!"

Instantly, as soon as the referee finished speaking, a wave of cheers erupted from the stands.

"Go, Miss Rika! Beat him!"

"Finally, another gym battle? It was worth it, staying in Celadon City these past few days!"

"Let's witness the beauty of this Grass-type Pokémon!"

On the stands next to the Rainbow Gym battle arena, many of Rika's fans are shouting.

This beautiful dojo owner has always been quite popular.

Meanwhile, the boy known as Little Silver was completely undisturbed and exuded confidence.

He was determined to win this dojo battle!

He wanted to prove to his father that he didn't need to resort to underhanded methods to become a strong person!

The Celadon City Gym Badge is Silver's first goal!

That's right, this little silver is the guy that Professor Oak would later call the "Exchange Man".

However, it's the same person from the Pokémon special episode before Ego's time travel.

This little silver girl's life trajectory is somewhat different...

The reason is simple: as the son of Giovanni, he was extremely unlucky to be kidnapped by the Masked Man!

But in the world that Jiang Gu transmigrated to, Sakaki wasn't so foolish as to lose his beloved son.

Thus, Silver, simply as the heir to Team Rocket, spent a rather happy childhood...

Naturally, since he wasn't caught by the masked man, he didn't meet Xiao Lan during his childhood.

At this time, due to his innate kindness, he was unwilling to take over his father's business.

Instead, he ran away from home in a fit of pique and met Ash and his friends, so he became a trainer in Pallet Town.

……

At this moment, on the battlefield.

"Go, Mavira."

Little Silver sent out his own elf.

After a flash of light, a Weavile with glossy fur, sharp claws and teeth, and an appearance that looked quite agile and strong, let out a low growl.

As the heir to Team Rocket, even though Silver had only recently acquired a Pokémon, less than a year ago.

However, he still managed to evolve his Nymph into Weavile.

And then, this elf appeared.

The spectators in the stands also expressed their disappointment.

"What a pity, it seems Miss Rika is going to lose this time."

These fans are quite clear-headed, knowing that the Weavile that Xiao Yin has brought out is quite well-trained! It's also an Ice-type Pokémon that counters Grass-type.

Rika, however, was facing a challenger whose Pokémon was only around level 20...

We can't win!

Immediately, many people appeared quite disappointed...

They came here to witness Rika's beautiful performance as she commanded her Grass-type Pokémon to victory!

Now, hopes are dashed...

but……

Instead, Lijia smiled slightly.

Her Celadon City Gym has been challenged quite a few times.

Because the starter dragons from the Kanto region are the most popular and the most chosen.

Naturally, as the Grass-type Gym Leader who is restrained, she can be considered the first hurdle for novice trainers as they embark on their journey.

In the past, Rika would have routinely chosen a Pokémon with average strength.

Let the new trainer in front of you show his skills.

But this time, Rika had a slightly mischievous idea...

Do you think I'm an easy target?

Perfect timing, let me show you the power of my newly acquired Pokémon!

Chapter 25: Dingding's Characteristics

Chapter Twenty-Five: Dingding's Characteristics

"Go on, ding-ding."

Lika used the capsule from the Seer Universe to release the spirit.

Then, she smiled.

"Please give me your advice."

The appearance of a humanoid elf with a pale yellow head adorned with long vines.

Instantly, the audience in the arena gasped in surprise!

"What kind of Grass-type Pokémon is this? We've never seen it before."

"It's not shown in the Pokédex! Where did Miss Rika get this Pokémon?!"

"An undiscovered Grass-type Pokémon?! My God! Are we witnessing history?"

A chorus of surprised gasps erupted from the audience.

Surprisingly, not a single person recognized what those strange spirits were!

Just by watching a gym battle, I was able to see a Pokémon that I had never seen before!

Many people were incredibly excited!

As for the special capsules that Rika used, no one paid any attention to them.

After all, the craft of making handmade Poké Balls exists in the Chengdu area, so this Celadon City Gym Leader's "Poké Ball" must also be custom-made.

At this moment, many spectators had already started filming the battle with their phones.

However, discussions soon broke out again in the stands.

"Wait a minute, even though no one has seen this Pokémon before, it should be a Grass-type, right? It can't possibly beat an Ice-type Weavile!"

"Yes, it seems Miss Rika will have a hard time winning this match!"

"However, at least we should be able to watch a somewhat interesting match. What kind of abilities will the new Pokémon have?"

However, being surprised is one thing.

However, Rika's fans are still pessimistic, believing that this time, the Celadon City Gym Leader held back, using a Pokémon of average strength to fight...

Even if you cherish it the most, it's still hard to defeat that well-trained Weavile on the other side!

The elemental advantage is too severe!

Can't win!

"Mavira, the Frozen Wind."

Xiao Yin calmly gave instructions.

As soon as he entered the arena, he decisively had his Pokémon use a move that countered his opponent's attack, aiming to defeat him in one fell swoop.

In fact, this tactical choice was absolutely correct.

Many of Rika's fans in the audience were already covering their faces in despair.

The freezing wind has an extremely wide range, making it very easy to hit an opponent in reality, therefore...

The mysterious, undiscovered Grass-type Pokémon that Rika sent out is probably going to be instantly killed!

However, Rika simply responded calmly.

"Hypnotic powder".
