I beg you female trainers to give me money even if you lose!

"In short, congratulations on your victory, Pigeon Teacher. We're handing over the Poison Smoke Badge to you as a reward for directly challenging a Level 3."

"The prize money won't be small either, then there are two move learners, Poison Spike and Venom Impact, you just heard about the former."

"The latter means that the attack power is doubled when attacking a Pokémon that is poisoned or highly poisoned, which feels pretty good when you're down."

"Thank you, I'll accept it."

Yang Xiying nodded, and at that moment, Mingyi ran over with a smile to congratulate her.

"Congratulations on your victory, Teacher Pigeon! Your battle with Miss Homiga has taught me a lot."

“It’s definitely a good thing to be able to learn a lot. You also have the potential to become a powerful trainer.”

Yang Xiying responded politely, then, as if remembering something, said, "In that case, I'll have an opponent at the Unova Regional Conference."

"I really don't dare to be Teacher Pigeon's opponent,"

Yang Xiying's words suddenly put Mingyi in a tense state.

"Actually, it's already quite strange that someone like you, Teacher Pigeon, would challenge gyms to collect badges and participate in the League Conference."

Homiga's expression was strange. For a trainer of Yang Xiying's level to participate in the League's battle tournament was simply a disaster.

After all, the threshold for the tournament is to collect eight badges, which only requires challenging a level one gym.

As a result, some trainers who have collected all eight badges only have five or six Pokémon, and their levels are only around 30 or 40.

The battle rules of the League Conference are all Master Duels between level 30 Pokémon, and Pokémon at this level are not considered to be at their Ultimate level.

If you don't know high-powered moves, or if you do, you can't unleash their full power, and you might even have trouble hitting your opponent.

Therefore, Yang Xiying, who was able to challenge the Level 3 Trial, was already a behemoth among the contestants.

"After all, I haven't really achieved any real results. The Kanto Regional League Tournament was the first tournament I was preparing to participate in."

"I only started my journey to becoming a Pokémon Trainer last year,"

Yang Xiying responded in this way, which earned her an incredulous look from the other side.

You became a Pokémon Trainer last year, caught a legendary Pokémon with an absurdly high level, and were even able to spread knowledge about battles, right?

Anyway, Yang Xiying looked completely clueless, and Homi and Mingyi didn't believe it, but they wouldn't pry.

"In short, Teacher Ge trained for many years in his hometown before officially debuting, right?"

Mingyi felt that Yang Xiying's experience was reasonable.

"By the way, Mr. Pigeon, can I ask you for a favor?"

Then, Mingyi changed the subject, revealing a sincere expression.

"you say,"

Yang Xiying responded directly.

"I want to challenge Teacher Pigeon,"

Mingyi's eyes lit up with anticipation, while Yang Xiying froze, "Fight me?"

"Hmm, I want to know the gap between myself and Teacher Ge,"

Mingyi bent her arms and clenched her fists in a cheering gesture.

"May I?"

"...I'm fine,"

Yang Xiying was silent for a moment, then said, "But you still need to be mentally prepared. I won't show any mercy."

When Mingyi moves around, something on her body always sways, making him feel somewhat guilty.

If I win a battle against this girl, will I have to break my vow...? But I really can't refuse to battle someone else's Pokémon...

No, the opponent should be around the same age as Ye Zi, so there's no need to panic. Besides, even though I beat the adult Homiga, the opponent still obediently paid up without going crazy.

Although Homiga now gives off a cute and pretty vibe, just like the Cerulean sisters and the random girl I encountered before.

But as long as we don't have too many Pokémon battles, it's fine. Hmm, after battling with Mei today, we'll head to our next destination.

"Thank you very much, I will prepare well."

"Oh, this is really a good show. Um, could your match start when I get off work?"

At this moment, Homiga suddenly got excited. The battle between Teacher Pigeon and Mingyi seemed quite interesting, and she couldn't miss it!

"Please, I really want to see it!"

"Um, what do you think, Teacher Pigeon?"

Mingyi felt that this matter could be handled by following Yang Xiying's opinion, because she wondered if it might delay the other side.

"...I have no reason to refuse when you ask me to do this."

Yang Xiying's expression was subtle; he felt that this matter was not a big deal.

—And their own Pokémon also need a rest.

"Okay, then come to my dojo again tonight. I'll lend you the space."

Homiga looked overjoyed.

And so, after making their agreement, the three parted ways, with Homiga continuing his work running the gym.

Yang Xiying and Mingyi returned to the Pokémon Center, had lunch, prepared their Pokémon, and then went back to their respective rooms to prepare for battle.

"Because you have five Pokémon but none of them are level 50, the rule is five against five at level 30, is that okay?"

Time flies, and before we knew it, it was time for Liyong Dojo to close, in a place where guests could no longer enter.

Under the watchful eyes of Homiga and a group of staff, Yang Xiying and Mingyi began a five-on-five battle of level 30 masters.

"No problem, Teacher Pigeon, hurry up and prepare the Pokémon for the battle!"

Mingyi smiled, and Yang Xiying prepared five of them.

"Alright! Pokémon battle! Ready Go—!!!"

The black stick figure raises both hands high, announcing the start of the competition!

"Please, Cool Leopard!"

"Soul-Stealing Eyes! You lead the charge!"

Both sides sent out their starting lineups at the same time. Mingyi's team, as usual, started with the Cool Leopard, because this could prevent the opponent from playing any underhanded tricks.

For example, laying nails or opening up walls...

Yang Xiying chose the Soul Hook Eye, as the opposing team's Cool Leopard had indeed left a deep impression on him.

"Cool Leopard! Magic Trick!"

"Sableye! Use Will-O-Wisp after Mega Evolution!"

PS: Update!

511

Chapter 511 Fierce Battle with Mingyi!

Both sides began to take action, but Yang Xiying was the most prepared, and she directly rolled up her sleeves to reveal the bracelet containing the key stone!

Then it releases energy to resonate with the Soul Reaper, and the Soul Reaper instantly transforms into the Soul Reaper holding a huge red crystal!

Then, the Cool Leopard's movements were blocked, and the Cool Leopard was unable to remove the item from the opponent's body and exchange it with himself when he got close!

Then, the Soul-Hooking Eye condensed blue flames and smashed them directly onto the Cool Leopard. The Cool Leopard was instantly burned, and its health bar lost 1/16!

"MEGA Evolution...?! The trick didn't work?!"

Upon seeing this, Mingyi was immediately surprised, because Yang Xiying had shown her something very cool as soon as she arrived.

"There are many reasons why a magic trick might fail. Can you guess which one it is?"

Yang Xiying raised an eyebrow, revealing a meaningful expression.

"Emmm..."

Mingyi and Homiga, who were watching, immediately fell into deep thought. Magic tricks can indeed fail sometimes, and right now the scarf is still on the leopard.

That means the other party has an item that cannot be traded, and Homiga knows that Mega Evolution will give the Pokémon a Mega Stone, which cannot be traded.

But Yang Xiying said there are many kinds. Could it be that the Pokémon shown on the other side has some hidden meaning? Sableye, a Pokémon I've never seen before...

"Ecstatic eyes!"

"Cool Leopard changes hands!"

Just as Mingyi and Homiga were unconsciously distracted, Yang Xiying suddenly moved, causing Mingyi to panic.

Cool Leopard is carrying a scarf, so if the trick fails, he'll have to resort to another trick, which will allow the opponent to do whatever they want.

The only option now is to switch characters, but what if the opponent anticipates your switch and continues using Will-O-Wisp? That's why I have to use this Pokémon!

"Will-o'-the-wisp!"

As expected, Yang Xiying anticipated that the opponent would use Ghost Fire in the switch, but Mingyi remained calm.

Because she switched to Serperior, which is a special attack Pokémon, even if she got burned, it wouldn't matter. She could just use the leftover food she was carrying to make up for it!

"Monarch Serpent! Leaf Storm!"

Mingyi frowned, intending to launch a direct attack, while Yang Xiying chose to switch Pokémon.

Yang Xiying then switched to Mushroom and faced the tornado unleashed by Serperior, which slammed into Mushroom with its leaves.

The Pokémon's health bar was only reduced by 10%, and at this moment, Serperior's Special Attack increased by two levels, although Leaf Storm reduced Special Attack.

But for Serperior with the Contrarian ability, it's a two-stage boost! Meanwhile, Amanita begins to recover 1/16 of its HP.

—The prop Yang Xiying brought for it was black sludge.

"This was used by Miss Homiga...?"

Mingyi looked surprised when she saw Yang Xiying send out the exposed mushroom, while Homiga's expression was also quite interesting.

No wonder Yang Xiying valued the Exploding Mushroom so much; it turns out I had one too. Hmm, only after using it myself did I realize how terrifying it was for my opponent to use it.

"Expose the mushroom! Clear it with smoke!"

"Monarch Serpent! Provocation!"

Both sides began issuing commands, and Mingyi directly provoked them, knowing the danger level of the mushroom from Homiga's previous use of mushroom spores to expose the mushroom's danger.

This move must be guarded against. Although it has no effect on Grass-type Serperior, Serperior can't do anything about Breloom either.

—So we need to change the player, and before that, we need to seal the mushroom spores on the other side!

Finally, Serperior made the first move, directly showing a mocking expression to Shroomish, which instantly turned Shroomish red.

Wanting to fight to the death, it spewed out a pool of venom from its mouth, contaminating the opponent and causing the Serpent Lord's health bar to drop by 40%!

Then Serperior's momentum weakened considerably, as if its Special Attack had decreased—Clear Smoke is a poison-type move that restores the opponent's abilities.

With 60% remaining, Mingyi was also preparing to switch Pokémon. This time, she wanted to switch to Lucario and use the Psychic type to defeat the opponent.

"The mushroom has been exposed! Switch hands!"

Yang Xiying knew it was time to switch players when she saw the opponent using Serpent Lord and still taunting them, but that's okay.

—He changed too!

Both sides switched to new Pokémon. Mingyi chose Lucario, while Yang Xiying chose the new companion he obtained in Unova!

—Now is the perfect time for it to gain experience points!

Yang Xiying switched to Daruma! Because it's a fire-type, Yang Xiying wasn't worried about it being killed by Serperior.

Moreover, with that item, the Daruma baboon can definitely outpace the speed of Serperior and strike first!

—And now it's the same when facing Lucario!

"A Fire-type Pokémon...?"

Mingyi was also surprised to see Yang Xiying change her Pokémon; the person opposite her was incredibly prescient.

My Lucario has no chance against this! — Mingyi knows about Darmanitan.
