Pokémon: Starting with Lucario and Gardevoir

No matter how heavy Haoyan's words are, can they be heavier than the super-heavy protective gear he's wearing?

... ...

As time goes on, the distance the Charizard pulls apart increases.

As expected, they were the first to touch the balloon.

With a bang, the balloon burst, scattering the colorful flowers inside.

The match is over!

The fire-breathing dragon carried Haoyan and landed steadily.

... ...

The host excitedly held the timer, looking on incredulously.

He addressed the audience with an excited voice.

"Haoyan's Charizard has taken the lead with a time of 19.18 seconds!"

"A speed of 19.18 seconds has broken the record for straight-line flight competition!"

"It's almost 6 seconds faster than the previous 25.31 seconds!"

"Friends, it has been 10 years since the last record was broken."

"Friends here today, you have witnessed the fastest speed ever!"

"Let's give a round of applause to Haoyan and his fire-breathing dragon!"

... ...

The match ended in less than twenty seconds from start to finish.

It was fast, but very exciting!

It takes 19.18 seconds to fly one kilometer, which is equivalent to flying 50 meters per second!

too fast!

That's so fast!

Everyone applauded Haoyan and his Charizard, while the reporters waiting on the sidelines were already eager to go up and interview him.

Naki's thunder was once again stolen by Haoyan's Charizard.

"Great...King!" Naki's Great King Swallow cried out unwillingly around her.

Naki gently stroked Da Wangyan's head and softly comforted him, "It's alright, it's just a match."

"If we train hard, we'll definitely have a chance to win the championship next time!"

"Your Majesty!"

"Great King!" the Great King Yan cried out.

Surrounded by onlookers and unable to squeeze in, Aysa simply walked over to her somewhat dejected friend.

She never expected that before the competition even started, Haoyan would win against Naqi's joke.

Her words turned out to be prophetic.

He comforted Naqi, saying, "Naqi, it's okay. Second place is good too. This gives you motivation to improve, right?"

Naki nodded, just as Asha said, failure is what gives us the motivation to move forward.

They put the Great Swallow back into its Poké Ball and watched Hao Yan, who was surrounded by the crowd, with Aya.

Naki noticed something strange about Charizard's limbs, something that seemed out of place for a Charizard, and asked curiously.

"Aysa, Haoyan's Charizard has four black things on its limbs."

Do you know what it is?

After being reminded by Naki, Aysa finally realized what was going on.

Look closely at the Charizard.

Charizard's skin is grayish-black, which matches the color of its black heavy armor very well.

It's really hard to notice if you don't look closely.

Aysa looked at it carefully, then widened her eyes and said in disbelief, "This...this is overweight protective gear?"

Aysa's words reminded Naki, who quickly and carefully checked.

I noticed that several black heavy-duty protective gear pieces had the "Device Manufacturing Company" logo on them.

"So, Charizard was wearing super-heavy armor and still managed to beat me?"

... ...

Chapter 125 Battles Between Shiny Pokémon

The Inyu City Hall is holding a flying festival and giving away valuable flying gems in order to attract tourists and boost the economy of Inyu City.

The effect was very good; on the day of the flying festival, many tourists came from all over the country.

This effectively boosted the local tourism industry.

Based on past experience, the number of visitors gradually decreases after the air show, eventually returning to normal levels.

However, the day after the air show, the tourists did not leave immediately.

The next day, they gathered at the Yinyu Dojo instead.

The tall and spacious Inyu Dojo was packed with people.

Outside the dojo, there were many spectators eager to go inside and explore.

This morning, they heard that Hao Yan, who won first place in yesterday's flying tournament and has a powerful Charizard, was going to challenge the gym.

In response, the Yuen Yu Dojo announced that it would not accept challenges from other trainers today.

As Asha's best friend, Naki knew that in Lavatown, Hao Yan's Pokémon, despite having type disadvantages, were...

They still defeated Aysa with a strong advantage.

Therefore, Naki respected Hao Yan's immense strength, refused challenges from other trainers, and focused solely on battling Hao Yan, which is why she closed the gym.

Upon receiving the news, tourists flocked to the destination.

I want to see if Haoyan, who broke the straight-line racing record, can successfully challenge the gym.

After all, flying fast is not always directly proportional to combat effectiveness.

... ...

"Director Naki, there are too many people here. The entire audience area is full!"

The dojo staff couldn't wait to find Naki.

"Yes, everyone, please take precautions."

"Be careful of various situations that may arise due to large audiences."

Whenever Naki has time, she will demonstrate her flying skills.

She is beautiful and talented, attracting a large audience.

There are usually not as many people as today.

The Lilycove Gym is a Flying-type gym.

The Pokémon used by Curator Naki can all fly.

Therefore, it was built to be taller than a regular dojo.

"Okay!" the dojo staff member replied and began to organize the order at the scene.

As time went on, the number of people in the dojo increased.

Those without seats stood in the aisle to watch.

The scene was absolutely packed with people.

... ...

"Do you think that trainer named Haoyan has a chance of beating Gym Leader Nachi?"

"Although he won the straight-line racing championship with a huge advantage yesterday, there is still a difference between real-world racing and flying fast."

"I don't know if he can win, but that guy named Haoyan will definitely get the badge."

"The gym leader can award a badge as long as they think a trainer has potential, instead of having to win to get a badge."

"Tch, do you even need to tell me that!"

"I feel that Haoyan has a high chance of winning, just look at the lineup of Yinyu Dojo today."

The two trainers' discussion attracted the attention of those nearby, who joined in the discussion.

Aside from discussing whether Hao Yan could win, much of the attention was focused on Hao Yan's gray-black, imposing Charizard.

A handsome, powerful, domineering, and unique fire-breathing dragon is the epitome of masculine romance.

Who wouldn't want to own a fire-breathing dragon like that?

Just then, Haoyan slowly walked into the dojo, and a round of enthusiastic applause rang out!

Looking forward to the start of the challenge.

... ...

"Director Naki, please guide me later." Hao Yan walked to the battlefield and smiled at her.

"Haoyan, you're too kind," Naqi replied with a smile.

"Are you both ready?" The referee, standing on the sidelines, looked at the two players.

"All right."

"No problem." The two nodded to the referee in unison.

"Challenger Haoyan is limited to using three Pokémon, but can switch them during the battle."
