Pokémon, start your journey from the East Glory Alliance

"The characteristic of the Great King Swallow is perseverance. After entering a state, its fighting spirit will be activated and it will burst out with stronger power. Of course, this is also because Zhang Long is lucky, or because he and the Great King Swallow have a deep bond. After being paralyzed, he was able to move. Otherwise, I'm afraid we wouldn't see such a beautiful counterattack."

Chapter 25, Skill Machine Substitute, Magic Shining (Happy New Year!!)

To celebrate Su Yuan's successful entry into the quarterfinals, the three of them took Su Yuan out for a small gathering.

Although both were knockout rounds, the top eight and beyond were a completely different concept. After all, these were the strongest group of people selected from more than a thousand first-year students in the school.

Everyone was talking and laughing at the dinner table. Zhang Long drank a lot of wine to celebrate and relieve his depression.

Although he was quite open-minded, he still felt bad about losing at this time.

"Su Yuan, can you tell me how to become stronger?"

Su Yuan paused holding the cup.

"Ah, me?"

Zhang Long nodded and looked at Su Yuan seriously.

"Although we all became trainers at about the same time, you and Kokodora are obviously stronger than the rest of us. I also want to become stronger and stand on a higher stage with King Swallow, so can you tell me what to do?"

Hearing this, Su Yuan put down the cup.

"Actually, I don't know how to do it, but I think there might be something you can learn from."

"what?"

"That is to learn more about Pokémon, to understand your own Pokémon, to understand other people's Pokémon, and to understand more Pokémon. As you continue to learn, you will find that not only you will become stronger, but your partner will also become stronger as your knowledge grows."

"To learn about Pokémon?"

Zhang Long looked at his Poké Ball, not knowing what he was thinking.

After dinner, Su Yuan stood at the door and said to the three people.

"You guys go back first, I have something I want to verify."

After saying goodbye to a few people, Su Yuan came to the vacant combat training ground.

"Come out, Ghost Skodora."

He threw the Poké Ball, releasing two Pokémon.

As soon as he arrived at the place, Gastly walked around curiously. He really liked the quiet environment at night.

Kodora stayed beside Su Yuan and rubbed his head against him.

"Okay, you two stop messing around. I want to discuss something with you."

“Yes~!”

"Kou Jie~!"

The two Pokémon came to Su Yuan obediently.

Su Yuan looked at the two guys and thought about what to say.

"Um, can you two communicate with each other?"

Gastly and Kotra looked at each other and nodded.

Seeing this, Su Yuan also remembered that Meowth, one of the three stupid people, could also translate for people and Pokémon.

"In that case, Kodara, can you teach Gastly how to use Guard?"

Kodara looked at Su Yuan with a puzzled expression, then turned to look at Gastly.

Gastly stuck out his tongue and made a face.

"Uh, Gastly, be serious and talk business. This is related to whether you can continue to play in the game in the future."

"Kou Jie!"

Hearing this, Gastly immediately stopped making funny faces and became serious.

However, Kodora shook her head and looked at Su Yuan helplessly.

“Yes, yes~!”

Su Yuan scratched his head.

"Just give it a try. How do you know if you can learn it even if you don't try? Or you can show Gastly a few more times."

“Yes~!”

Kodara nodded and began to demonstrate to Gastly how to use Guard.

Gastly was also watching carefully.

Su Yuan scratched his head helplessly. Gastly's level was a little lower than Kodrak, and the opponents in the next airport elimination match were almost all at Kodrak's level. If Gastly couldn't learn a life-saving skill, then he would have no chance in the next game.

The main reason was that he ran out of time. Otherwise, if he had bought a skill machine online, he wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble.

"Oh, right? Aren't there two skill machines in the stage rewards? What if they appear?"

When Su Yuan was having dinner before, he forgot about the stage rewards and just remembered it now.

However, the skill machine is random. If you want to open and defend among so many skills, it can only be said that the probability is not high.

"Come on, it's good to have a little hope. Watch me pull it out for you with my divine hand."

"receive!"

Two secret skill machines appeared in Su Yuan's hands.

"What is it? What is it?"

Moving his fingers little by little, Su Yuan finally saw the words engraved on the outer shell of the skill machine.

"Secret Skill Machine Substitute! Wow!"

When Su Yuan saw the first skill machine, he almost jumped for joy.

"It's actually a stand-in. I'm really lucky."

The skill of substitute can be said to be a magical skill in combat. It creates a substitute to bear the damage for yourself. Many tricks rely on this powerful defensive skill.

"One more to hold on, one more to hold on!"

Now that the substitute has been opened, it won’t be too much for me to open another one to keep.

But things often don't go as we wish.

"Secret Skill Machine, Magic Flash?"

Su Yuan was stunned when he saw this skill machine. How come the magic flash was activated?

"Oh shit, luck is conserved. I used up all my luck when I created a Stand. Magical Sparkle, the problem is I don't even have a fairy-type Pokémon."

Suddenly Su Yuan saw Gastly who was seriously learning how to defend from Kodara.

"By the way, Gastly seems to be able to learn the magic sparkle."

Just when Su Yuan was thinking about whether Gastly could learn the magic Shine, Gastly suddenly laughed excitedly.

"Hahahaha!"

"Gars, laugh softly. I'm thinking about something. Your laughter at night can easily scare people, right?"

"Kou Jie~!"

Gastly stretched out his big tongue and licked Su Yuan, but accidentally hit him.

"My grass!"

I just felt a tingling sensation all over my body.

"No way, it's paralyzed again, you're cheating, is the probability of paralysis from tongue licking so high?"

"Hee hee hee!"

Looking at the paralyzed Su Yuan, Gastly laughed again.

"You guy, I have to teach you a lesson today."

The angry Su Yuan resisted the feeling of electric shock and took off his shoes and threw them at Gastly.

However, before it could hit Gastly, it was blocked by a blue light curtain.

"You mean hold on? Damn, you really learned it!"

Gastly nodded, then circled Kodara twice.

Kodora also had a proud little expression on his face, as if saying, "Come on, praise me, I taught him."

Su Yuan walked up and patted Kodora on the head.

"You are amazing. I didn't realize you have the talent to be a teacher."

“Yes~!”

"Well done, I'll give you a snack."

Su Yuan directly used the battle points to exchange two pieces of metal film for Kodora, and Kodora started to chew them.

"Kou Jie~!"

Seeing that Kodara had a snack, Gastly looked at Su Yuan eagerly, as if saying, "What about mine?"

Su Yuan scratched his head.

"Wait a minute, let me think about what to give you."

He suddenly noticed that there was still a mysterious gift box that he had not received.

"receive."

A small red box appeared in Su Yuan's hand, but before Su Yuan could open it, Gastly took it away.

"Wait a minute Gastly, I haven't seen what's inside yet."

As soon as Su Yuan finished speaking, Gastly opened the box and a purple bead appeared in the box. The bead emitted a dangerous light under the light of the street lamp.

"Fuck, this is a poisonous orb, Gastly, don't touch it, it's dangerous."

"Kou Jie?"

However, as soon as Su Yuan finished speaking, Gastly rolled the poisonous orb into his mouth with his big tongue, and then looked at Su Yuan with a puzzled look.

It seems to be saying, what are you saying?

"Uh, I forgot, you are a poison type. Okay, I'll give this thing to you. Giving it to Kodara won't be useful and it's dangerous."

"Kou Jie~!"

Gastly excitedly circled around Su Yuan twice. If it weren't for the poisonous orb in its mouth, he would have licked him with his big tongue.

"What a pity! Although you have the poison attribute, you don't have any poison-related skills. You won't get any bonus from just having the poisonous orb."

However, Gastly didn't care about all this. He just thought the bead was fun. He held it in his mouth, spitting it out and eating it again. His scarlet tongue flexibly played with the poisonous bead.

When Su Yuan saw this scene, his eyes couldn't help but twitch violently.

"You bastard, stop cosplaying Kakyoin here!"

Chapter 26, Blood Pressure Rises (Happy New Year!!!)

After a day of rest, this campus competition finally ushered in the final battle.

The quarter-finals, semi-finals, and the much-anticipated finals are about to begin.

"Well, are you ready?"

Everyone in the dormitory started to get busy. Although Su Yuan was the only one who made it to the top eight, the others seemed even more nervous than Su Yuan.

"Don't worry, I'm ready."

Su Yuan couldn't help but scratch his head as he looked at the few people. For a moment he was not sure whether he was going to the competition or they were going to the competition.

"I think we should confirm it again. Did you bring Dora and Gastly?"

Su Yuan touched the two Poké Balls on his waist.
