Pokémon: All About the Breeding House

Chapter 525 Do you want to become the champion?

"You're awake? I'll take you back to the Carlos region."

95

Ai Lan looked at Manon who came out of the tent and spoke.

A girl wearing green clothes and with her brown hair tied up in a chestnut-like style shook her head.

"I've never been to the Hoenn region, and I'd like to travel there."

"Traveling alone is dangerous. What would you do if you encountered danger?"

Ayran asked her, and Manon, holding Harley, looked at Ayran sitting on a large rock and said, "You and Charizard will protect me and Harley, right?"

Seeing Manon's expectant eyes, Ailan opened her mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Manon: "Besides, you see, traveling is a boring thing. With me with you, you definitely won't be bored—"

Manon rambled on and on, and Ailan was actually convinced.

"Then remember to stick close to me when the time comes."

Hearing Ailan's words, Manon was overjoyed and patted his chest with Harry, saying, "Don't worry, we've traveled together in the Carlos region before."

Alain nodded and started packing up the tent with Charizard. Manon, seeing this, ran over with Chespin to help.

On the other side, also in the Hoenn region.

A silver-haired man in a suit was looking at the measuring instrument in his hand as he walked towards Meteor Falls.

Why would the residents of Meteor Falls insist on transporting a stone from Kalos back to Hoenn? Does that stone have some purpose?

Daigo Zvoich muttered to himself, quite intrigued by the supposedly seven-colored stone that had fallen from the sky. So he made a special trip back from Carlos to see Meteor Falls for himself.

Autumn Leaf Town.

"Grandpa Principal, where are we going next?"

"We're going to Meteor Falls, one of the most famous places in the Hoenn region."

"Meteor Falls?! Will there be meteors?"

A wind chime floated beside Shana, and she held her breath and asked.

"It's said that a meteor once fell there, which is why it's called Meteor Falls."

"When should I go?"

"No rush, we'll go in a bit."

"Okay~"

Feeding house.

Fang Yan walked to the balcony, looked at Cynthia sitting in the chair, and opened his arms.

Cynthia, with a "I can't do anything with you" expression, opened her arms.

Fang Yan knelt down on one knee and threw himself into Cynthia's arms.

Cynthia held Fang Yan in her arms and gently patted his back.

Lost in the embrace of Shirona, Fang Yan suddenly found it increasingly difficult to breathe. He struggled and broke free from her embrace, then gasped for breath.

"That was close, I almost couldn't breathe, luckily I reacted in time."

Looking at Fang Yan's relieved expression, Cynthia gently curled the corners of her lips into a beautiful smile, her voice cool and clear: "There won't be a next time."

dialect:!!!

No! ! !

Cynthia ignored him and got up to go into the room.

She couldn't help but take a breath as she entered the room.

This guy! His head is so hard! It hurt so much when he hit my head!

Fang Yan, amidst Gengar's mocking expression, leaned against the edge of the balcony and gazed at the backyard.

Autumn has arrived.

Fang Yan gazed at the scene where green and yellow hues met and said softly.

Gengar came to Fangyan's side and placed a withered yellow leaf on Fangyan's head.

"Kou Jie"

Wear more clothes!

"Don't worry, I won't catch a cold, right, Nine-Tails?"

Nine-Tails, standing to the side, simply yawned and ignored Fang Yan's words.

"Goethe".

Come down for dinner.

"They're here."

Today, Fang Yan had been craving fried dough sticks and soy milk since yesterday. Sitting down, Fang Yan picked up a fried dough stick, took a bite, and said, "m8..."

"By the way, how long have Shana and Tomoyo been gone? Almost a month, right?"

"It'll be a month in a few days," Mr. Fujino said, sipping his tea.

After living in the breeding house for a while, he also developed a liking for tea, and he felt that tea tasted much better than coffee.

"I wonder if she's doing well in the Hoenn region, or if any of the other kids are bullying her."

In the local dialect, you tear the fried dough sticks into pieces and put them in soy milk, letting the soy milk soak through them.

"Was she bullied by someone?"

Mrs. Fujino couldn't help but laugh. "With her personality, it's good that she doesn't bully others."

She knows her own daughter well. When Shana first came to the nursery, she was timid, scared, and even withdrawn. Now she is lively and cheerful, just like a demon child in the nursery.

If someone bullies her? Wouldn't she just punch them away?

That's a lot like me.

"By the way, did Principal Satch say where they are now?"

"I mentioned in the group chat yesterday that we're planning to visit Meteor Falls today."

The parents' group is usually made up of parents, so Fang Yan wasn't in it, and therefore he didn't know anything about Shana and Tomoyo's schedule.

"Meteor Falls? I've heard it's quite beautiful, but I've never been there."

"I did go there with my wife when I was young, and it was indeed very beautiful. However, I heard that there are many powerful Pokémon in the deeper areas, so we only visited the outside."

"Zhu Lan, shall we go for a walk later?"

Fang Yan glanced at Cynthia, who was quietly eating breakfast to the side, but Cynthia didn't seem to mind.

"If you have time after watching the game, you can go check it out."

Cynthia's mood suddenly soured when she thought about having to go back to work tomorrow.

So annoying————

Could we give the championship to Wusong? After all, he's so good at handling things.

Forget it, I'll go back and stay for two days, then find an opportunity to go to Carlos to visit Karuni. I'll just use the excuse that I have a business performance there.

In the short time it took to eat breakfast, Cynthia had already found an excuse to go to work two days later.

After finishing breakfast and handing over the breeding house to the Fujino couple, Fang Yan and Cynthia traveled to Twin Dragons City in the Unova region via the Reverse Path.

Fang Yan and Cynthia entered the Gym in Twin Dragons City together, only to be greeted by two angry roars.

One roar was filled with the courage to climb ever higher, while the other was the confidence to hold fast to the throne.

"Looks like we've arrived at just the right time."

Cynthia walked beside Fang Yan, wearing a casual light blue short-sleeved shirt and wide-leg trousers, her high heels echoing as she spoke.

Beside her was a Garchomp.

"really."

Fang Yan nodded, agreeing with Cynthia's statement.

A grinning Gengar floated beside him.

The two walked up the stairs to the top and stood by a pillar, watching the battle below.

On one side is a dark-skinned girl dressed in gorgeous clothes.

On the other side was a robust, white-haired old man dressed in a formal suit.

Their ace is the pseudo-legendary hero from the Unova region, Haxorus.

"Double-Haxorus, Reverse Scale!"

"Let's go too, Double-Haxed Dragon, Reverse Scale!"

The two Haxorus, under the command of their respective trainers, clashed violently together, constantly using parts of their bodies to fight.

Axe blade on the side of its face, sharp claws, and a strong, powerful tail.

The roar of the Twin Axe Dragon echoed throughout the dojo.

"Close combat!"

"earthquake!"

boom!

"Dragon Claw!"

'

"Dragon Claw!"

"roar!"

"roar!!"

Watching the brutal, hand-to-hand combat, Fang Yan couldn't help but exclaim, "As expected, Dragon-type Pokémon are so cool and powerful!"

Hearing the sentiments expressed in dialect, Garchomp involuntarily tilted its head back.

In the anime, Dragon-type Pokémon may not seem very strong, but in reality, they are absolutely synonymous with power and dominance.

That imposing aura that made people involuntarily back down, that strong and robust physique, those powerful moves.

No wonder so many people like Dragon-type Pokémon.

You agree, right, dodo bird?

"This is the last time. I believe in you, Haxorus. Our training these past few days will surely lead to victory. Go! Use Outrage!"

Alice's double-axe dragon seemed to feel Alice stroking its back from behind, just like when it was a child.

Alice — Ash — Pikachu —

"roar!!!"

"Close combat!"

"roar!"

The axe blades on the sides of the two Haxorus clashed violently, producing a clanging sound like swords clashing, before bouncing off. The Haxorus in front of Alice withstood the claw attack from the Haxorus in front of Shaka, and then lashed its tail hard across the head of the other Haxorus.

Shaka's Haxorus was knocked down by Alice's Haxorus's tail and fell to the ground, losing consciousness.

"roar!!!"

Alice's double-axe dragon stood on the field, roaring towards the sky.

"That must be... Alice's unique ability, right?"

He said something in a low voice.

Alice ah————

Fang Yan sighed inwardly.

The only champion without any battle system.

"Clap clap clap".

Cynthia's applause rang out, and Fang Yan turned to look at her, only to find that Cynthia was looking at Iris and Haxorus on the battlefield below.

His eyes were filled with satisfaction.

Perhaps in Cynthia’s heart, she felt that the girl who once aspired to become a Dragon Master had completely grown into a Dragon Master.

Thinking of this, Fang Yan laughed and then clapped along.

The applause quickly drew the attention of everyone in the venue.

"A dialect shopkeeper? Miss Cynthia?!"

Alice shouted happily.

"Why are you all here too?"

Seeing that everyone on the field was looking up at him and Cynthia, Fang Yan led Cynthia onto the field.

"Have you forgotten? I'm the acting champion of the Unova region. I'll be here to watch the gym leader change and see if the new trainer is strong enough to become the gym leader."

"Oh, I see. So, how was it? How strong are the two-axe dragon and I?" Alice asked expectantly.

Fang Yan nodded slightly, "Congratulations, Master Alice."

Cynthia, who was standing nearby, laughed and said, "Alice, you've become a Dragon Master."

Upon hearing this, Alice paused for a moment, then tears welled up in her eyes.

She never imagined that one day she would be praised by her idol.

"Yes, Miss Cynthia. My Haxorus and I will head in your direction. We look forward to your guidance then."

""

Alice bowed deeply and said loudly.

The strength of their conviction moved even the dialect speaker.

Garchomp looked at the battered and bruised Haxorus with eyes full of encouragement and admiration.

"What's that saying in the dialect again—"

"What?"

Fang Yan looked at Cynthia with a puzzled expression. Cynthia pondered for a moment, then put her index finger to her lips and whispered, "I'm looking forward to it."

Alice looked at Cynthia, who continued, enunciating each word clearly: "I look forward to the day when I fight you with all my might."

"yes!!!"

The girl's voice was full of energy.

Soon, you'll be able to go all out in the Eight Masters tournament.

Fang Yan thought to himself.

He shook his head, walked up to the two-axe war dragon, and reached out to stroke its body; the dragon scales were icy cold.

"That little bastard who couldn't even release a meteor shower has grown up."

Fang Yan still remembers when he was still Axew, a single Meteor Shower blasted Ash and his friends away.

"roar."

The double-axe dragon grinned.

Gengar, looking lost in thought, reached out and patted Haxorus on the shoulder.

"Kou Jie—"

'

Sigh, you've finally grown up—ah—

Fang Yan simply grabbed its mouth and pulled it back.

"Don't make it sound like you're old."

Fang Yan said expressionlessly.

"Kou Jie"

Ok.

Gengar changed its approach, popping out a firework tube from somewhere and pressing it hard. With a "bang," the firework landed on Iris and Haxorus.

"Kou Jie~"

Congratulations!

At this moment, Shaka walked over, holding the Badge of the Odd Dragon City Gym and the Gym's prized possession, the Gene Wedge.

Xia Ka looked at Fang Yan, who shook his head and made room for him.

After all, he is the successor chosen by Shaka, so it's better for him to announce the result.

Shaka didn't stand on ceremony and walked up to Alice, looking at her with a face full of satisfaction.

"Iris, congratulations on becoming the new Gym Leader of Osaka City Gym."

After Shaka finished speaking, he handed the items in his hand to Alice, "These two items are the two most important things in our Odd Dragon City Gym: the Gym Badge and the Gene Wedge."

"Now, take them over and truly become the Gym Leader of the Osaka City Dojo."

"Thank you, Grandpa Shaka."

Alice took the box with both hands and then bowed deeply.

"Haxorus, did you see that? We did it!"

"roar.

""

Alice and the Haxorus happily hugged each other.

Fang Yan glanced around but didn't see Adek. Curious, he asked, "Where's Mr. Adek? Did he leave first?"

Wanlong, who was standing to the side, said, "After he heard yesterday that you were coming today, he left overnight."

"His exact words were: 'Ahem, now that the dialect shopkeeper is here, I'll leave everything to him. I'll go first and see if I can find any other trainers with the potential to become champions. By the way, don't tell him, I'm afraid he'll just send the work back to me.'"

"That's how it was; he left Shuanglong City overnight."

dialect:----

"By the way, when exactly will you be able to elect the next champion in the Unova region?"

"You're asking me? I'm just a king. If you're going to ask me, you might as well go find one yourself like Adebayo, the champion."

""

Fang Yan couldn't bear the thought of having to deal with things for who knows how long. He looked at Alice, who was hugging the Double-Axe Dragon, and narrowed his eyes.

He remembered that Alice was the next champion for Unova.

Since that's the case—

"Alice".

"exist."

Alice stood at attention instantly.

"Do you want to become stronger?"

"what?"

"Do you want to become the champion of the Unova region?"

"Huh?! Me?"

"right!"

"Can I?"

"Why not? How old are you? You've already become the strongest Gym Leader in the Unova region. Given time, you'll definitely become the new Champion of the Unova region and defeat Mr. Alder."

"But----"

"Just tell me if you want to or not?"

"You want to—, right?"

"Um?

""

"think!"

Fang Yan nodded in satisfaction, then asked, "Have you been to other regions?"

Alice shook her head, and Fang Yan was taken aback.

What's going on?

I seem to remember that Alice traveled to the Kanto region after the BW arc ended.

"After the Higanbana Tournament ended—didn't you go on a trip?"

"No, Mr. Adek has been training me in the Unova region, along with Grandpa Shaka."

Fang Yan then remembered that it was he who had asked Adek to train Alice.

In that case —

"Alice—if you want to become stronger, if you want to one day have a proper battle with Yukari, go out and explore."

"what?"

"Go to different regions, exchange ideas and learn from different dragon masters, learn from their strengths and make up for your weaknesses. Believe me, you will gain something different."

"But I just became the Gym Leader of Ottoman City—"

"I'm just making a suggestion. If you'd like to study in Dragon Nest, I can put in a good word with Wataru for you."

After saying that, Fang Yan clapped his hands. "Alright, it's getting late, Zhu Lan and I will be leaving now."

"Wanlong, try to solve this yourself first. If you can't, then come to me."

After speaking in dialect, he grabbed Cynthia and ran away.

Time to go on dates again!

Yay!

It's been so long since I had a proper date with Zhu Lan, I have to make up for it today.

After Fang Yan and Shirona left, Alice fell into deep thought.

A large, kind hand gently patted her shoulder.

"What he said makes a lot of sense. Go, go and learn. I can manage the dojo in Shuanglong City for you first, and you can become the dojo master after you come back from your studies."

"—Okay, Grandpa Shaka, I've decided, I'm going to Dragon Valley!"

"Good boy."
