Pokémon: Legendary Pokémon Simulator, Starting with Arceus

"Hahaha, thanks everyone, I'll take first place."

The dojo students faced off on the battlefield. Xiao Tao, dressed in Hanfu, let out a queenly laugh, while the Serpent Lord beside her elegantly raised its head.

Four men squatted together, helplessly watching the people in the room.

"This woman must be at least an elite in terms of ability, right?"

"Damn it, with this level of skill, they still want to be a streamer? What happened to them?!"

"I know this guy. His livestream name is Xiaotao. He's a travel streamer."

"Oh, it's her. I remember she's already passed the Pokémon rating test, she just needs the Trainer certificate."

"No wonder he's quite strong... He didn't lose unjustly..."

The five people present had just competed, and the winner was already obvious, not because the difference in their abilities was too great.

Instead...

"Since we all have the same goal, let's not keep you in suspense any longer and decide who wins through a battle."

Four men and one woman stood at the entrance of the dojo, looking at each other in bewilderment. One of them then took the initiative to make a suggestion.

"But how do we divide the five of us into groups?"

Faced with this question, the other man received scorn from the other three men: "Do you think you can take this from a young girl?"

"I'm not going to steal it! Let's begin!"

This lineup is clearly for a two-person battle. The extra person is perfect for the little girl. After making their decision, the group headed towards the dojo to borrow the space.

Xiaotao, who hadn't uttered a single word since the beginning: Huh? ? ?

The live stream audience was overjoyed.

"Haha, these few are letting Xiao Tao have some fun later."

"They probably didn't expect that this woman's spirit was already rated as elite..."

"This is so interesting. Xiaotao hasn't said a word since she arrived."

That's how it went. In the end, the victorious Advanced fought against Momo. To save face, he released the Pokémon he had just fought, and the opponent immediately countered with an elite Serperior.

That obvious aura stunned the man, and Xiao Tao successfully snatched the bargain.

That's the funny thing about reality; the person you think needs help might actually be stronger than you...

After the recollection ended, Xiao Tao knew she had gotten lucky, but luck is also a part of ability.

"Hehe, thanks a lot, guys. I'll go in first."

After confirming the registration information at the entrance, I followed the staff inside.

The journey was very quiet. Xiao Tao asked curiously, "Aren't there any other short courses?"

She was referring to the dojo master, and the things he set up within reasonable limits, such as three to five guardian deities, mini-games, or challenges.

Any action taken under safe conditions is reasonable.

This can deter many newcomers... in the real sense.

"We haven't set a temporary gym leader, and the challenge slots for the next two days are already full, so we're just not going to do it."

The staff explained and led us to the entrance of a building: "We're here, just go in."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

The sight of the staff members' backs made the live stream burst into laughter.

"Haha, the other side is really fast."

He walked away without looking back, as if he had made up his mind.

"Oh no, Xiao Tao is getting old and has lost her charm."

Seeing the staff's decisive action, Xiao Tao couldn't help but feel that her charm had diminished, but she instantly flew into a rage upon seeing the comments.

"Who's old?! They're still so young!!"

No, I absolutely have to find a chance to show off my charm!

With this thought in mind, Xiaotao prepared to go in, and then... the door didn't budge.

I tried again, but got the same result.

He checked it with suspicion, then took two steps back in disbelief.

"What are you doing, Xiaotao? Why aren't you going in yet?"

"I don't know, why doesn't it open when I put my hand on it? Do I need a key?"

"I remember that each dojo has its own rules. Xiaotao has never encountered them before, so maybe the gate is the key."

"Damn, I just realized there's really nothing here, not even a door god!"

Ignoring the comments, Xiaotao held her phone close to the crack in the door: "Stop talking, just watch for yourselves."

Everyone was completely bewildered and didn't know what to look at for a moment.

"What is Xiaotao showing us? Is there something different about getting closer?"

"I don't know, let me take a closer look first."

"Since we're so close, we must have discovered something. Let's take a closer look."

The phone wasn't always stationary; it was constantly moving, which puzzled everyone.

Until a comment appeared.

"I work at a finished steel factory. Why does this color look a bit like the ones I usually see?"

"Now that you mention it, it really does seem like steel."

"????"

"Good heavens, could it really be true?"

Xiao Tao saw that the results were out, took two steps back with her phone, and then pointed the camera at the bottom.

With a thickness of at least 20 centimeters, it's not easy to move even with wheels on the side.

"That's right! After Xiaotao's careful inspection, it is indeed a steel gate!"

"There are also signs next to it." Point the phone at the flyer next to it.

[Pokémon on the right, Trainer on the left, push them apart together.]

P.S.: A Fighting-themed gym needs strong physiques; trainers must keep up with their Pokémon!

Everyone was stunned when they saw the content; sure enough, every family has its own rules.

"Didn't they say there wouldn't be any door gods or anything? Why are there still some here?"

"The temporary gym leader probably didn't set it up; this gate should be permanent."

"There are wheels below, and many of the Pokémon have excellent physical attributes, so it should be a process of elimination."

The person in the live stream was right; Xiong Meng had actually forgotten about the gate.

On the other hand... the physical abilities of elite-level individuals are truly terrifying.

"Monarch Serpent! Charge and push away!"

An elegant elf appeared, its body glowing white as it rose up, using the impact to push the other side away.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

The dark arena came into view, followed by the lights coming on, and a Husky suddenly appeared, next to a person wearing a referee's uniform.

Xiaotao was about to ask if he was the gym leader, since some people like to play this game.

"The challengers have entered; next, please welcome the gym leader!"

Okay, I know it's the referee.

"Tap, tap, tap..."

As the referee's voice faded, footsteps echoed from the opposite passage, and a figure could be faintly seen approaching.

Xiao Tao couldn't see clearly in the dark passage, so she had to zoom in on her phone to make sure the audience could see it.

"Great job with the live stream, kudos!"

"Oh wow, this feels really oppressive. I wonder if there's anything there."

As the figure drew closer, its appearance finally became clear.

"Isn't that the muscular guy from this morning?!"

"!!!! It really is him!!"

"Good heavens, the other party is the temporary gym leader."

"I don't know who it is, but with those muscles, he's probably not into a real fight."

Xiao Tao finally saw him clearly and pointed at Xiong Meng in surprise: "It's you!!"

Upon seeing the other party clearly, Xiong Meng was also surprised.

"We meet again, have you eaten?"

"I've already eaten..." Xiaotao instinctively responded, then quickly retorted, "Ah! Wait! Why is it you?"

"Because I'm the temporary gym leader, where else would I be if not here?"

The other party was puzzled, and so was he. How could the gym leader not be here when there was a challenge?

"Ahem, enough with the reminiscing, let's get ready for the battle."

Uncle Li interrupted their conversation: "Now, let me explain the rules of this match!"

"This is a one-on-one badge challenge. Skill cap is four, item cap is one! During regular battles, you cannot attack the trainer! The player whose Pokémon is unable to battle wins!"

"The rules are now over; the challenged player will send out their Pokémon first!"

Xiong Meng pulled out a Poké Ball and threw it forcefully: "I choose you, Heracross!"

Little Peach didn't hesitate either, pointing with her right hand: "Monarch Serpent, go go go!"
