Pokémon, who made him the gym leader?

Chapter 78 How did someone with such poor manners become the gym owner?

Lance was a little confused. He had a good memory and he recognized the black-clad youth from the Saint-Tiannu.

Further investigation revealed that this person was a trainer at the Rota Gym, and the gym leader was also correct.

But what he said...

Are the gym leaders in the Pokémon League really this shameless?

"Young man, that's not a funny joke."

Lance's face twitched slightly, but he tried his best to maintain his usual smiling tiger demeanor.

"As a Gym Leader of the Pokémon League, stealing other people's Pokémon is unethical."

In Renish, the word "sarcasm" or "mockery" means there is absolutely no attempt to hide it.

"Tsk~ Lance, do you have any evidence?" Guxin raised an eyebrow.

"You say I stole your Pokémon, do you have any proof?"

"???"

Lance found it amusing. Did they really need evidence? Just look at the shabby door and that safe.

Calling you a robber wouldn't be an exaggeration, would it?

Legitimate League personnel who break into Team Rocket's base are there to arrest Team Rocket members.

So what you're doing, coming here to rummage through drawers and stock up on goods, huh?

"Boy, isn't Darkrai right next to you? You took its Poké Ball too."

That's right, this black elf is Darkrai!

"That's right." Gu Xin nodded frankly.

"But what proof do you have that Darko is on your Rockets team? Why don't you call him that and see if Darko responds?"

Gushin glanced at Darkrai, who was also looking at Gushin.

This Darkrai is clearly not in good condition. Not only is it extremely weak, but it is also noticeably lethargic. I wonder what happened to it.

"..." Lance's eyes darkened.

Why would Darkrai respond to him? He was already lucky that Darkrai didn't attack him.

"Young man, you..."

"What do you mean, 'you'? I have a question for you too, Lance."

Ignoring Lance's gloomy gaze, Guxin stepped forward and interrupted Lance with a loud, righteous voice.

"What exactly does the Rockets mean by this? Why did they lock my Darko in their safe?!"

With Lance staring in disbelief, Guxin's voice boomed!

"If you don't give me a proper explanation today, Lance, you're going to jail!"

Sensing that their trainer needed a boost in morale, Nidoking and Salazzle strode forward. Nidoking revealed a ferocious expression, while Salazzle grinned wickedly. The two Pokémon flanked Gushin, and their aura instantly changed!

Everyone's a villain.jpg

"you!"

Lance was stunned!

Good heavens! This is the first time he's ever seen a Pokémon League Gym Leader like this!

How dare you slander and defame the Heavenly Gang like this without even blushing? Who taught you that?!

"Okay, okay, okay!!!"

Finally regaining his senses, Lance's rather handsome and wicked face twitched and twisted, his expression shifting unpredictably, as he pulled down the brim of his hat.

"It seems you're unwilling to return Darkrai to us, young man. That's fine then, I'm quite interested in you as well."

Lance's voice was somewhat deep and cold; he was no saint.

Two Poké Balls opened, and Crobat and Weezing appeared in front of them.

"Tsk~ Perfect timing, your bounty in the Alliance is pretty high too." Guxin's lips curled up into a bright, sunny smile.

Lance is one of the four generals. Although his status is not as high as Apollo and Athena, as a high-ranking officer, Lance's bounty is also very high.

Capturing him and handing him over to the alliance will boost Guxin's performance there, and the rewards will definitely be more generous.

"Heh~" Lance sneered.

This little brat is so arrogant. Does he think that just because he teamed up with others to defeat Apollo, he can take care of Lance?

What ridiculous arrogance and ignorance!

Darkrai remained silent, seemingly unnoticed, but seeing that the two were about to fight, Darkrai's blue eyes flickered slightly, and its gaze fell on the Crobat.

Darkrai recognized the crossbat; his expression turned complicated once more.

"Crossbat, Air Blade!"

"Double Gas, Illusion Ray!"

Lance took a few steps back to maintain a safe distance, clutching a Poké Ball he could throw at any moment, and gave orders to his two Pokémon in a rapid-fire manner.

This is not a regular battle, and Lance, as an experienced trainer, knows this very well.

Although I don't know how much experience this boy has in fighting, judging from his shameless words, he might be a ghost.

"A weak and ineffective attack."

Gu Xin glanced at it and clicked his tongue.

"Nidoking, 100,000 Volts."

Nidoran roared, his massive body crackling with electricity as golden currents surged towards the air blades and illusionary beams.

One hundred thousand volts in the electric system!

Boom!

The three attacks clashed violently, but the next moment, Thunderbolt directly shattered Air Blade and Psychic Beam, and continued its momentum towards Crobat and Weezing.

Crobat immediately retreated and took flight, while Weezing was directly hit by Thunderbolt. Thunderbolt exploded, and Weezing groaned in pain.

"This power? Something's not right."

Lance kept backing away, his right hand shielding his face, his expression grim. The shockwaves from the explosion made it almost impossible for him to open his eyes.

But that's not the point. The point is, how come Nidoking's 100,000 volts is so strong?

Forced characteristics?

The Forced ability can remove the additional effects of a move, but it increases the move's power by 30%, which is a very powerful ability to boost combat strength.

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated.

Lance, who was deep in thought, suddenly noticed something was wrong and saw a tall, dark figure leap out, flames burning in its mouth.

"Crossbat! Watch out!"

Lance immediately reminded the Crossbat.

A raging, scorching pillar of fire shot at high speed toward the flying Crobat, who was propelled away by the flames and slammed heavily against the wall.

Fire-type jet flame!

boom!

Flames exploded, sparks flew from Crobat's body, and it was almost knocked off its feet by the jet of fire.

The Flame Queen landed calmly, its narrow eyes glancing sideways at the Crossbat, a wicked smile playing on its lips, a smile that seemed both mocking and sarcastic.

"..."

Lance's face was so gloomy it seemed like it could drip water, and his eyes kept flashing.

Unexpectedly, both of his Pokémon were hit once right at the start of the battle.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

Tap~ Tap~

Footsteps sounded, and Guxin walked out of the small room step by step, coming to the relatively wide corridor and looking at Lance.

King Nido, on the other hand, stood in front of Gushin with his massive and strong body from beginning to end.

Darkrai hesitated for a moment, then slowly floated behind Gushin.

"Mr. Lance, it seems your strength is nothing special." Guxin said with a smile.

"Heh~ Don't be so smug, young man, let's see who has the last laugh."

Lance was furious but laughed. This guy actually dared to mock him to his face? Mocking his opponent during battle? How did someone with such poor manners become a gym leader?

What are the inspectors of the Pokémon League good for?!

"He's really stubborn, it's a pity his mouth double isn't here." Gu Xin said with some regret, missing Xiao Lan, his mouth double.

If Xiao Lan were here, she would definitely be talking non-stop like a machine gun right now.

"This guy's strength is really a bit off."

Compared to Guxin, Lance was under a lot of pressure at the moment. After thinking for a while, Lance still subtly took out the communicator.

Guxin noticed Lance's little actions, but couldn't stop him. However, it wasn't a big problem. Unless Sakaki came in person, no one could save Lance today.

It would be even better if it were buy one get one free.

As for if Giovanni really risks being exposed to come over, it won't be a big problem either. Are those dodos up there just sitting around doing nothing?

This is perfect opportunity to watch Wataru and Sakaki fight! I had this possibility in mind, and I even prepared a camera in the Koshin bag!

As for Lance, he immediately sent an urgent request for help to Apollo.

"Danger! Quick help! .jpg"
