Pokémon, who made him the gym leader?

Chapter 54 You are the future glory of Kanto!

"Ding~ Litten, Fire-type, Ember Spirit Pokémon"

Ability: Intimidate

Special moves: licking, sparking, vocalizations, scratching, and surprise attacks with a high five (inherited).

Description: By grooming the fur and then burning the accumulated hair in the abdomen, flames are emitted. The flames vary depending on the method of grooming.

It's imperfect that no harsh words were uttered.

Gu Xin nodded as he looked at the description of his Littoral's special move. The high-five was a good move, but it was still missing a threat.

It's not a big problem. We can let Litten learn from other Pokémon that can "make tough statements." Even if it can't learn them, it can at least imitate Vanilla.

"Speaking of which, aren't there a lot of evil-type characters?"

Gushin pondered, realizing that he already had three Dark-type Pokémon: Masked Meowth, Drapion, and the future Incineroar...

This is clearly a coincidence, and it's both malicious and vicious.

Gushin originally planned to slowly build a Ghost-type team so that those lovely challengers could occasionally experience the joy that Ghost-types bring.

"The bottom team isn't bad either; the dojo's windows shouldn't get smashed, right?" Guxin seriously considered this possibility.

Hmm, the challenger probably wouldn't go that far... right?

"Brother Museum Owner~"

The little sister's energetic shouts came over.

"What's wrong, little sister?"

Gu Xin stood up, stretched, and checked the time.

After arranging a special training program for the Magic Masked Cat and the others, it was almost midnight before I knew it.

"A reporter just came over and said they wanted to interview you."

"Oh?"

Gu Xin raised an eyebrow upon hearing this; of course, reporters wouldn't suddenly come to interview you for no reason.

It's likely that this reporter also received the news, which is why he rushed over immediately.

"Let's go take a look."

Guxin didn't think too much about it; having a reporter interview him was a good thing.

Speaking of which, there is also a type of trainer in the game called "Interviewer," which consists of reporters and photographers, but it didn't exist in the first generation. However, this is a real world, so how could there be no reporters in Kanto?

Upon arriving at the dojo, Gushin immediately spotted a beautiful black-haired woman and a man holding a camera.

"Hello, I am Gu Xin."

Gu Xin walked up to the two of them with a gentle smile.

"Hello, Curator Guxin, I'm Miyuko, and this is photographer Abu. We're from the Konoha City TV station."

Miyuko took out her work ID photo and showed it to Gu Xin.

Gu Xin glanced at it and nodded; it was indeed a reporter.

"And who are you two?"

"That's right. We've already heard about the Saint-Tiannu incident yesterday. According to police reports, you, Master Guxin, are one of the people involved."

"Would it be convenient for us to interview about what happened?"

"Of course you can."

Guxin did not refuse.

"Thank you so much! Shall we get ready and begin?" Miyuko was delighted; this was big news!

Team Rocket hijacked the world-famous St. Teen, threatening all the passengers on board. In the end, many trainers worked together to defeat Team Rocket.

So when she received the news that Guxin had returned to Rota Street, Miyuko rushed over immediately.

After a few preparations, the group began the formal interview. Gu Xin first gave a brief description of the events and how Officer Jenny arrived with her team.

"Finally, I'd like to ask Master Guxin, what was your mindset when you went to find Apollo?"

"Apollo is a high-ranking official with the Rockets. What if you're no match for him?"

While taking notes, Miyuko voiced her doubts.

The Rockets were ruthless, and according to Gushin's description, Apollo was one of the Rockets' top executives, even using an entire cabin full of Naughty Balls to threaten the passengers.

What a dangerous person!

"I don't have any particular thoughts. As a trainer, and a gym leader under the League, I feel it's my responsibility and obligation to ensure the safety of those innocent passengers."

Gu Xin shook his head, his face serious and solemn.

Miyuko was taken aback by what she heard, while the two underage girls, the receptionist and Mizuki, who were not far away, looked at their owner brother with shining eyes and admiration.

"Even if I was outmatched, even if I got injured as a result, that wasn't something I should worry about. Maybe I was being a bit impulsive, but that was really what I was thinking at the time."

At this point, Gu Xin couldn't help but smile helplessly.

"However, Apollo is indeed very strong. If we hadn't had two like-minded companions fighting alongside us, we might not have been able to defeat him."

"I am very sorry about this. If I were stronger, I might have been able to capture those two evil men, Apollo and Lance."

"All I can do is prioritize the safety of the passengers."

Gu Xin spoke with some shame.

"No, no, no, Master Guxin, you've already done an excellent job!"

Miyuko quickly replied.

"If you and your companions hadn't defeated Apollo, perhaps the other passengers wouldn't have been safe and wouldn't have survived until Miss Officer Jenny arrived."

"You are a hero!"

Miyuko praised him sincerely, and she had to admit that she was truly shocked by Guxin's enlightenment.

That's Team Rocket! The infamous, insane, and evil Team Rocket!

This young museum owner is only eighteen years old, right? But he already has such a selfless spirit! What a wonderful person!

No wonder even the billboards on Rota Street describe Gushin as "a man as warm as the sun."

That makes perfect sense!

"I believe that you, Master Gushin, will definitely become one of the glory days of the Kanto region!"

Miyuko sighed from the bottom of her heart, noting that not only was he young and strong, but most importantly, he had a positive attitude towards life. The Kanto Pokémon League would definitely give him special attention and training.

What reason does the Kanto Alliance have not to nurture such an outstanding, righteous, and kind young man?

"Ms. Miyuko, you flatter me. Regional glory and all that... I don't deserve it." Gu Xin smiled somewhat embarrassedly and gestured for Miyuko to stop.

"This credit doesn't belong to me personally; it's inseparable from my two friends who wish to remain anonymous, as well as the passengers on the ship."

"They were also brave enough to fight the Rockets; otherwise, I couldn't have done it on my own."

Gu Xin spoke in a very serious tone.

"That's true, but Master Guxin's contributions cannot be ignored either." Miyuko smiled on her beautiful face.

Not only is she full of a sense of justice, but she is also humble and modest. Miyuko is sure that Guxin will have an extraordinary future!

After discussing some routine questions, the interview officially ended.

"Thank you so much for agreeing to this interview, Master Guxin."

Miyuko extended her hand to Koshin in gratitude.

"Don't mention it, you guys are basically giving my Rota Dojo a knockout." Guxin said humorously.

This is certainly true. As long as the TV station reports this interview, it will definitely bring a lot of attention to Rota Dojo.

More challengers will come from far and wide, which is definitely a good thing for the Rota Dojo.

"Please rest assured, I will definitely give you a good introduction to the dojo."

Upon hearing this, Miyuko covered her mouth and chuckled, then playfully winked at Guxin.

Before she and photographer Abu came here, she specifically looked up information about Gushin. Well, this dojo didn't have a good reputation before.

However, recently, positive reviews have been gradually increasing, which shows that Gu Xin is working hard. It's just that some of those positive reviews seem a bit strange.

Miyuko didn't quite understand.

"If Ms. Miyuko and Mr. Abu aren't in a hurry, they can take a stroll around Rota Street."

"Okay, thank you for your hospitality, Master Guxin."

Miyuko and Abu prepared to say goodbye.

But just then, the dojo door was pushed open.

"Guxin! This young master is back!"

The handsome young man, leading the way, flicked his bangs, exuding confidence.

Emmm...

Is this a challenger? He's got some personality...

Miyuko pursed her lips, unsure how to describe her current thoughts.

"Oh, it's Mr. Shigeru. Are you already confident you can beat me?"

Gu Xin looked at Xiao Mao, who strode in with surprise.

"Of course! I underwent special training for a full two weeks!"

Xiao Mao glanced at the interviewer and lost interest; what did reporters have to do with him?

"Gushin, I was careless last time, but this time I will definitely defeat you and take your badge!"

Xiao Mao was very confident, and this confidence was completely evident.

"Little Mao, Little Mao is so awesome~!!"

Several cheerleaders immediately jumped out and cheered Xiao Mao on from behind.

"???" Miyuko and Abu exchanged a glance, both seeing the question mark in each other's eyes.

Mizuki, who was seeing such a scene for the first time, also widened her eyes. Was the challenger of the dojo such a weirdo?

"I see. Then I'll accept your challenge."

When facing challengers, Guxin's smile and demeanor remained as warm and sunny as ever.

Gushin will not refuse any trainer who dares to challenge him; it is his responsibility as a gym leader.

"How so?" Abu asked Miyuko softly.

"Of course, I'll watch this gym battle!" Miyuko exclaimed with great interest.

Abu nodded in strong agreement; gym battles were definitely worth watching.

"I wonder what kind of lineup Guxin used? The internet says it's water-type?" The two arrived at the audience seats, and Miyuko asked curiously.

"I think it's fire-based, right? After all, that's what the notice board seemed to suggest." Abu had a different opinion.

"..."

The receptionist, who had also come to the audience, heard the two talking and smiled awkwardly but politely.

Speaking of that notice board, it was written by Sister Eileen. Well, it's quite a stereotype.
