Pokémon: Trainers Start as Bounty Hunters.

Furthermore, Tetsuya remembers that Shinji wasn't initially so obsessed with the pursuit of Spirit power.

Kids always dream of becoming powerful trainers, and at the same time, they long to have Pokémon as their partners.

The reason he ended up looking like Raiji now is mainly because his good-for-nothing older brother was hung up and beaten up several times by Kamishiro.

Not only did the older brother become withdrawn after being beaten, but the younger brother also became withdrawn.

However, their development directions are completely different.

The older brother, Raiji, realized his past mistakes, while the younger brother, Shinji, felt it was because his older brother was still too weak.

Lei Si, with a dark face, didn't reply. Instead, he turned to the little head and unleashed a torrent of words: "Didn't I tell you to stay in your room? What are you doing out here!"

If you don't behave, I won't do it next time Mom and Dad ask me to bring you out!

He may seem fierce, but if you listen carefully, you'll realize that Raiji, as the older brother, actually cares a lot about Shinji.

Tetsuya stopped him with a smile: "Hey, don't scare the kids."

Looking at the timid little Shinji not far away, he found it quite amusing.

pity.

He couldn't very well take out something to record things in front of everyone.

Otherwise, showing it to Shinji, who is like that, would be a very good thing.

Hmm, Tetsuya thought about it again and said, "Not necessarily."

After all, he still had a certain fondness for Shinji because of the anime storyline he had seen in his previous life.

To put it another way, Shinji's principle of survival of the fittest and his almost militarized training, if not for the Spirits, is actually a very sound approach.

If we set aside emotional factors...

Unfortunately, sprites are neither machines nor data.

If possible, Tetsuya wouldn't mind changing Shinji's mind.

Compared to his currently hopeless brother, it is still easier in terms of difficulty.

"Come out, Knight Snail."

After thinking for a moment, Tetsuya released the even more handsome Knight Snail.

Gallade is too rare and not suitable; Vulpix is ​​too cute and probably won't be liked by Shinji; as for Prince, he'd probably just spray Shinji with a water gun.

After much thought, only the Knight Snail is suitable to be released to close the distance.

as predicted.

Shinji was very excited the moment he saw Knight Snail.

He didn't know who this older brother who spoke up for him was.

But the clever boy could tell from his older brother's reaction that he wasn't a bad person and was very likely a friend.

So Shinji happily ran over to admire the Knight Snail.

"Brother, what kind of spirit is this?"

After observing for a while, he looked up and asked his older brother, who had been wronged by him, with a bewildered expression.

Completely ignoring Lei Si's face, which was even darker than Xiao Gang's.

"Knight Snail, an elf from the Unova region, evolved from Gekko.

Even so, Lei Si answered his younger brother in a sullen manner.

He looked at Tetsuya: "It seems you haven't been slacking off lately either."

Tetsuya tilted his head.

Seriously, does this guy not know he's already reached Elite Four with a Pokémon?

Thinking about it carefully, it seems I really didn't notify this guy.

Strictly speaking, the two weren't really friends; they were just acquaintances.

His mind raced, and a smile gradually spread across his face.

"What are you doing?" Lei Si frowned.

This smile gave him a rather unpleasant feeling; it was a bad sign.

"It's nothing," Tetsuya said with a smile. "You just said you wanted to challenge me, right?"

"Correct."

Although he didn't know what the other party was thinking, Lei Si still nodded.

It's not that he couldn't secure a private room to advance to the next stage of the competition for the Rising Dragon Ceremony token.

Although he doesn't have any Elite Four-level Pokémon, he does have a few near-Elite Four-level Pokémon, Raikou.

With this level of strength, passing the first level and even obtaining the token shouldn't be a big problem.

This guy is a genius trainer, not too big, not too small.

However, the result of each fight with Tetsuya was rather disastrous.

Otherwise, he would never have been able to stand before Kamishiro and challenge him.

"I agree, but only 2v2."

Tetsuya said.

"make a deal."

Lei Si agreed without saying a word.

"Shinji, come on, let me show you what a crushing battle looks like." Tetsuya chuckled as he beckoned to Shinji, who was standing beside him.

In just a short time, he gained Shinji's great trust.

Shinji felt that this older brother named Tetsuya really knew too much about Pokémon and was too good at training them.

My brother's training regimen looks exhausting and pointless.

Lei Si silently clenched his fists.

He was determined to show this guy what it meant to be treated with respect after just three days' absence.

Yes, Lei Si also only recently arrived in Yanmo City.

Therefore, he not only didn't know about Tetsuya's progress in strength from his friends, but he was also unaware of the events that occurred in the city that morning.

According to his thinking, even if Tetsuya becomes stronger, his strength will be limited.

The two had just fought at the Manjin Department Store in Manjin City not long ago.

Back then, Tetsuya's ace Blaziken and his Draconis were about equal.

Lei Si subconsciously forgot that Blaziken was completely unharmed in that battle—if being suffocated by Dracovish's bad breath could be considered a form of psychological damage, then it was somewhat hurtful.

Having been tempered by the ice cave, he was confident he could surprise Tetsuya.

In this world, Tetsuya isn't the only one who's lucky.

Having found a battlefield close to where Brock was fighting, Tetsuya leisurely took out two Luxury Balls: "Then, I'll send out my Pokémon first."

Having said that, before Lei Si could say anything more, he threw out one of them: "Soar through the heavens, Pidgeot!"

The incredibly beautiful bird song resounded through the sky.

In an instant, all the trainers in the surrounding battle arena turned their attention to this.

"That's... a Pied Eagle?"

Many people expressed considerable doubt.

After being modified by the Sacred Flame, Tetsuya's Pidgeot gradually moved towards its Mega Evolution form.

Currently, Mega Evolution has not been fully revealed to the public, let alone the specific appearance of the Pokémon that Mega Evolve.

Therefore, trainers have a great deal of curiosity about this form of Pidgeot.

However, one thing is certain: this Pidgeot is definitely not ordinary.

Despite the gazes coming from all directions, Tetsuya remained calm.

This is a situation that will eventually come to pass.

As his main Sky Pokémon, Pidgeot's appearance rate is bound to be quite high.

Instead of hiding it, it's better to expose it openly.

He is confident enough to bear the consequences.

Lei Si, opposite him, suppressed his surprise and sneered, "You're too confident. I'll show you that your choice was wrong."

Logically, the challenger should have been the one to send out the Pokémon first.

Tetsuya's actions were tantamount to disregarding him.

Although Pidgeot's appearance and subtle aura made him feel uneasy, Lei Si, thinking of avenging his previous humiliation, put this concern aside.

"Let them know what a frozen world is like! Go, Snow Fairy!"

He took out a Poké Ball and threw it.

An anthropomorphic sprite appeared on the field.

Its "body" is very similar to a kimono, especially the belt around the waist, which resembles the sash of a kimono.

Arms that look like ears hang from the sides of the head, with shiny wrists and patches of pale blue on them.

It has three little fingers on its hands, and its head looks like a water droplet turned to the side, with two ice crystals and some holes on its head.

Through the holes, you can see its purple skin, and through the two holes, icy blue eyes with yellow sclera peek out, and under the white "mask" is a small mouth.

"Holy crap." Tetsuya opened his mouth as if he had seen a ghost.

Most of the trainers around had similar expressions.

Some even went so far as to take more than ten steps back.

This is truly unbelievable.

After a moment of silence, Tetsuya gave Raiji a thumbs up: "Awesome."

He suddenly discovered a positive aspect of Lei Si's personality.

This guy really only cares about strength and not race.

This is the Snow Fairy.

The Snow Witch, who is only female, is rumored to be a terrifying being.

As an Ice/Ghost type Pokémon, it roams through blizzards, finding unsuspecting humans and prey, and attacks them by freezing them into ice blocks.

They are said to secretly show off the frozen corpses of their victims.

The targets are particularly young men.

Anyway, Zhe didn't have the guts to cultivate a Snow Fairy.

"Ew, you snow fairy..."

Suddenly, Zheye, who had been observing closely, exclaimed in surprise.

Lei Si said with a proud look, "That's right, my Snow Fairy is a Shiny Elf."

The reason it's hard to tell is that the Snow Fairy's shimmering light is only visible on her waist belt, which has changed from a normal red to a purplish-red.

You wouldn't notice it if you didn't look closely.

"You're lucky too," Tetsuya remarked.

"Stop talking nonsense and make your move."

Lei Si didn't want to exchange any more pleasantries and urged Tetsuya to start the fight.

The side that sends out its first Pokémon attacks first; this is a principle of fairness in battles.

Having sent out the Snow Fairy, he couldn't wait to let Tetsuya taste defeat.

Ghosts and regular monsters don't affect each other, but Ice is a real counter to Flying-types.
