Pokémon: Starting with Lucario and Gardevoir

After saying that, Haoyan mounted his fire-breathing dragon and rode away gracefully.

Daigo, Michael, the Elite Four, and the others were left behind, looking completely bewildered!

The only person who can remain so calm and collected in the face of so many mythical beasts is probably Haoyan!

There's no one else like him in this world!

Chapter 601 Little Lugia's Diligent Training, Honeymoon Trip

At home in Akihachi Town.

Inside the training arena, Lugia stared intently at his opponent, Tyranitar!

His round eyes were full of seriousness and earnestness!

The opponent was Lugia, the heavy Tyranitar, with a casual expression.

"Mimi~ Mimi~"

The Ice Nine-Tails excitedly ran back and forth between the two opposing sides.

He looked like he was watching a show.

"Xiao Jiu, they're about to fight, don't disturb them."

"Come here..." Hao Yan called out, and Ice Nine-Tailed Fox nestled in Hao Yan's arms, its beautiful tail swaying back and forth, making Hao Yan's nose itch.

It has been almost half a month since Lugia was attacked by Seadrane at Chimney Mountain, triggering a series of chain reactions.

From then on, Lugia was determined to become stronger.

We can't drag down the Ice Nine-Tails!

Instead of playing around, they choose to train with other Pokémon.

Today is the day to test the results of Lugia's two weeks of training.

... ...

"Awoo!"

Lugia spread its wings high, condensing a beam of icy light that blasted towards Tyranitar.

To be fair, Lugia's Ice Beam is quite impressive in terms of both its speed of activation and its power.

However, Lugia is only at the peak of the Gym Leader level, which is far inferior to Tyranitar, a legendary Pokémon at the beginner level.

It was impossible to inflict any effective damage on Tyranitar.

"Class~"

Bangiras stretched out its giant claws and blocked the icy light.

With a sudden, forceful jerk, he shook the ice that had formed on his arm off.

Undeterred by its ineffective attack, Lugia quickly flew at high speed above Tyranitar's head, taking advantage of Tyranitar's slow turn.

Find a gap!

A pale blue light emanated from its body, and it was covered in a rich layer of water-based energy as it rammed into Tyranitar's back!

With a thud, it slammed into Bangiras's lower back.

Little Lugia's move elicited a hint of admiration from Hao Yan.

"Advanced uses of the water jet propulsion technique are both creative and powerful..."

Upon hearing Hao Yan's praise, the Ice Nine-Tailed Fox in his arms immediately meowed happily.

"This move was taught to Xiao Yin by Xiao Jiu~"

"Little Nine is really amazing~" Hao Yan praised, affectionately rubbing the little head of Ice Nine-Tailed Fox.

"However, although the skills were used in a very innovative way, the gap between Little Silver and Little S is too big."

"Little Silver is no match for Little S..."

If what Hao Yan thinks is true, then even if Lugia's skill hits Tyranitar, whose body is covered in sharp rock spikes, it will still result in a lot of damage to both sides.

Against Tyranitar, known for its defensive capabilities, it was Lugia who suffered the most.

"Ow~"

Little Lugia also noticed this!

But there's nothing I can do!

Tyranitar, a Rock/Dark type, is a perfect counter to Flying/Psychic type Tyranitar!

After several rounds, Tyranitar didn't even have to lift a finger; Lugia was already exhausted and the battle ended abruptly.

This level of combat is at best a warm-up for Tyranitar.

... ...

Little Lugia had already anticipated the failure, but she hadn't expected it to be this difficult!

He huddled to one side, dejected and looking pitiful...

Haoyan led the Ice Nine-Tailed Fox forward, and the Ice Nine-Tailed Fox teased the little Lugia with its tail, trying to cheer him up.

The intense sense of frustration, however, kept little Lucia from playing around.

Seeing this, Haoyan said, "Little Silver, don't be discouraged~"

"Don't give up so easily, just keep training."

"You'll become a really powerful Lugia, just like your mom, someday!"

When her mother was mentioned, little Lucia blinked her bright eyes vigorously.

His mother can control storms!

In the future, he can too!

"With hard work, I can definitely become a powerful Lugia like my mom!"

"Then, I won't need Xiao Jiu's protection anymore!"

"I will try my best to catch up with Xiao Jiu!"

Little Lugia was still very young, and his emotions were easily stirred up by Haoyan.

No longer depressed, he happily played with the Ice Nine-Tailed Fox.

... ...

Seeing that Lugia had calmed down, Haoyan looked around at the Pokémon he was training.

"After this period of training, Xiao Ou, Xiao Long, and Xiao Si have stabilized at the initial stage of divine beasts. They only need one more opportunity to step into the middle stage of divine beasts."

"Although Xiao Meng is only at the peak of the champion level, she is only one step away from breaking through to the initial stage of the divine beast."

As he was pondering, Gardevoir gently came to Hao Yan's side. Hao Yan, as if by telepathy, slightly turned his arm to let Gardevoir comfortably lean against him.

They cuddled together, lazily basking in the sun.

"Xiao Lu, nothing much has happened at the dojo lately..."

"I plan to travel to other regions..."

"Pack your luggage later..."

Haoyan rested his chin on Gardevoir's little head, stroking it as he spoke.

Gardevoir felt itchy from Hao Yan's stubble and wriggled around in his arms.

Haoyan went on a trip, partly to broaden his horizons.

Secondly, to help Pokémon find opportunities to break through their limitations.

Furthermore, from a certain perspective, it can also be considered a 'honeymoon'.

"Hmm~"

Gardevoir, held tightly in Hao Yan's arms, gently responded with a soft "yes".

... ...

Chapter 602 Quixote: Why is my life so miserable?

Unova region, Karakusa town.

Three ordinary-looking girls gathered together, pointing and gesturing at a tall, thin man in the distance who was wearing a hat and black sunglasses and resting on a street bench.

"Look at his Adam's apple, it's incredibly sexy!"

"I'm 100% sure he's a really handsome guy!"

A girl in blue excitedly spoke to her companion beside her.

"Did you see his hands?"

"Long and beautiful!"

"Those big hands must be so warm!" Another girl seemed eager to join in.

"Why don't we go find him and get his contact information..."

"Never mind, several pretty girls asked for his contact information just now, but he rejected them all without hesitation..."

"Even if we went, we'd just be rejected..."

"What a pity... such a handsome guy is only meant to be admired from afar, not touched..."

The girls were whispering about Haoyan.

Haoyan chose to vacation in the United States region.

Because in the Sinnoh region, Hiroyuki defeated Team Galactic, once again propelling his fame to unparalleled heights!

Powerful, handsome, young, righteous—all sorts of positive adjectives were used to describe him, making countless young girls idolize Haoyan.
