Pokémon: Starting with Lucario and Gardevoir

... ...

Naki's dazzling Swan immediately attracted the attention of many tourists.

"This giant swallow is so special! I heard that Director Naki had a unique giant swallow, and seeing it today, it's definitely true!"

"Tch, everyone in Yinyu City knows that."

"I've heard that Director Naki's giant swallow is quite powerful."

“Normally, trainers who come to challenge her in battles don’t need her Swellow at all.”

"It seems that with Director Naki's giant swallow participating in the speed flight competition this time, she's definitely going to be the champion."

... ...

Naki was already used to the amazed looks from others; Shiny Pokémon are very rare!

Swellow is also the Pokémon she has put the most effort into raising.

Just as everyone was discussing this, a powerful Pokémon appeared on the field.

It captured everyone's attention.

Haoyan released his Charizard.

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

Charizard's proud, wild, and domineering roar intimidated all the Pokémon present.

With a flap of its wings, a small whirlwind instantly forms on the spot.

Charizard's powerful aura caused the surrounding Pokémon to lower their heads.

It is like attending a royal banquet.

Only Naki's Great King Swallow managed to hold off the attack to some extent.

Naki's shimmering giant swallow just now surprised the tourists.

Hao Yan's fire-breathing dragon was truly awe-inspiring!

His gray-black skin gave him an air of mystery.

Its wild appearance exudes unparalleled domineering power!

After a brief silence, the entire competition venue erupted in cheers and discussions.

"My goodness, this Charizard is also a Shiny Pokémon!"

"His appearance and his aura are simply like those of a ruler of the sky!"

"It was totally worth it, so incredibly worth it! I never expected to see two shiny Pokémon while attending the Flying High Festival!"

"Has anyone noticed that the boy using the shiny Charizard looks familiar? It's like I've seen him somewhere before."

"The scroll that was... burned?"

"Yes, yes, he's the one who won the Grand Contest in Autumnleaf Town last time!"

"I never expected that besides having a rare Gardevoir, he also has such a cool Charizard!"

Immediately, the crowd began to discuss loudly, and the entire competition venue became noisy.

... ...

When Naki was on her trip to Mt. Chimney, she learned that Haoyan had a shiny Pokémon.

Back then, Charizard was just a Charmeleon.

I never expected that Charmeleon would evolve into Charizard after just over two months.

The speed of progress is astonishing.

Moreover, it possesses such a terrifying aura.

The appearance of two shiny Pokémon at the same time is bound to cause a stir among others.

In the past, whenever Naki unleashed her dazzling Swellow, she would become the center of attention.

Now everyone's attention has shifted to Haoyan's Charizard, and she feels somewhat disappointed.

Although they are both Shiny Pokémon, the green Swellow is not as good as the gray-black Charizard in terms of appearance.

Moreover, the Great Swallow is also a native bird of the Hoenn region.

Whether in terms of rarity or appearance, they are clearly not in the same league!

"Da Wang Yan, do your best later, we must win the championship!" Naqi said seriously.

In the past, when Naki participated in flying competitions, she often had a playful attitude.

After all, as the curator, she can just show up and participate as a formality.

But this time, facing Haoyan's Charizard, she really wanted to win.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

King Yan also called out in response to her.

The wild Charizard glanced at the Giant Swellow with some disdain and let out two roars.

"Roar! Roar!"

It seems to be saying, "You dare to compare yourself to me?"

Just as Charizard spread its wings to show its domineering presence, Naki suddenly noticed a black thing on each of Charizard's limbs.

The Charizard was also wearing heavy protective gear modified by Haoyan.

While the color scheme matches Charizard well, the shape is jarring.

"What is that?" Naki asked, somewhat confused.

Haoyan did not remove the heavy protective gear of the Fire Dragon for participating in the flying race.

Because it's unnecessary!

Haoyan never wastes his time unless he is absolutely certain.

Since he dared to let Charizard wear super-heavy protective gear to participate in the competition, it proves that he has absolute confidence in Charizard.

... ...

Chapter 124 Naki: You beat me while wearing super-heavy protective gear?

"Go, Haoyan!"

"Naqi, you can do it too!" Yasha, standing by the competition field, was excitedly cheering on the two participants in the straight-line speed race.

Naki, riding on the back of the Great Swallow, leaned forward, looking ready to set off at any moment.

The king swallow she sat on, like her, was full of energy.

He was at a disadvantage in the battle of momentum with Charizard, which left him feeling frustrated.

He wanted to prove himself in the competition.

Haoyan casually put on his windproof goggles, and as usual, he maintained a calm smile on his face and waved to Aysa.

Charizard glanced around with disdain at the Pokémon vying for speed with him.

When it comes to flight speed, Charizard has never been afraid.

... ...

"The match begins!" The referee fired a signal flare into the sky.

All the participating Pokémon immediately flapped their wings and took off.

It flies in a straight line, without any shortcuts.

Only by flapping our wings with all our might and charging forward can we succeed!

"Great King Yan, charge!"

Naqi was shouting loudly at the start of the match.

The giant swallow she sat on quickly sprang into action, flapping its wings and darting away.

The wind made her clothes flutter loudly.

At this moment, Haoyan also commanded the Charizard to charge out.

The gray-black fire-breathing dragon seemed to transform into a gray-black streak of light.

It soared into the sky, surpassing all other Pokémon.

It moved straight toward the balloon quickly.

From the moment it took off, it was ahead of everyone else.

"Wow...so fast!" Aysa, watching the game from the ground, looked incredulous.

Looking up from below, Charizard appears to be a leader, flying at the very front.

All the Pokémon behind him were like his followers.

Naki, flying second, kept cheering on the giant swallow beneath her.

"Go for it, Queen Swallow!"

Da Wang Yan was also speeding up as fast as she could.

However, no matter how fast it accelerated, it couldn't catch up with the fire-breathing dragon in front of it.

The fire-breathing dragon was already about 50 meters ahead of the rest of the team.

Charizard, which usually uses super-heavy protective gear for weight training, perfectly demonstrated its advantages at this moment.

Because they are carrying their trainers, the Pokémon's flight speed will be affected to some extent.

Even Naki's Great King Swallow is the same.

The Great King Yan weighs only 20KG. No matter how strong he is, it would be impossible for him to fly while carrying the 90-pound Nachi.

Regarding this, Charizard said that it was just a hundred-pound Hao Yan, nothing at all.
