Standing on the battleground, Chen Kai felt a peculiar sensation.

He had been playing Pokemon since elementary school, completing all versions of the game, and now standing here, he had a strange mix of familiarity and unfamiliarity.

The referee from the last match stood in the middle of the arena again: "Both trainers, please take your positions.

This is a 1v1 Pokemon training battle. The match ends when one Pokemon loses its ability to battle, or one trainer concedes."

Chen Kai's opponent was a handsome boy, the kind who could probably be an internet celebrity back on Earth.

After listening to the referee's speech, the handsome young man on the opposite side threw out a red and white Poké Ball: "Go, Scyther!"

The opponent's Scyther looked about 1.7 meters tall and was very well-trained. Although it was a Flying-type, its level was several levels higher than Xiao Mei's.

Chen Kai also directed Xiao Mei to the arena: "Go, Xiao Mei! The opponent is strong, so be careful."

"Rong!" (Okay)

The referee declared the start of the match: "Battle start!"

"Quick Attack!" The opponent immediately shouted the move, giving Chen Kai no time to react.

But Chen Kai reacted immediately and commanded: "Interrupt it with Thunder Shock!"

A flash of blade, and a long gash appeared on Xiao Mei's body, while Scyther was only grazed by Thunder Shock and didn't suffer much damage.

"Continue using Quick Attack!"

"Xiao Mei, use multiple Thunder Shocks at once!"

"Scyther, change your move, use Double Team to dodge!"

Scyther split into several figures and continued to Charge forward, while Xiao Mei's Thunder Shocks all hit the illusions.

"!"

Chen Kai was shocked, 'It can be played like this?'

"Good, continue with Quick Attack!"

Scyther slashed at Xiao Mei again, but this time it was unharmed.

Chen Kai scratched his head, thinking annoyedly:

The opponent didn't trigger Static twice in a row, which was indeed troublesome and not suitable for him.

"Xiao Mei, Charge while covering yourself with Cotton Spore!"

"Scyther, use Fury Cutter to break its Cotton Spore!"

Scyther rushed over, performing several consecutive Fury Cutter slashes.

Each slash was fiercer than the last.

"Had enough cutting? Xiao Mei, Charge over and use Thunderbolt at maximum power!"

"Scyther, quickly use Quick Attack to get away!"

"Mei!" (*｀д´)

Xiao Mei, having been continuously attacked, was already seething with anger.

Yellow electricity burst forth from the blue light bulb on its tail and the white wool on its body, covering half the arena, even blackening the ceiling.

The referee and the opponent were dumbfounded, and Wang Yi and Wang Tianxiang, who were not far away, were even more startled.

"Why did Kai Ge's Mareep evolve into Flaaffy?

The power of this Thunderbolt is too terrifying, isn't it? Is this something a beginner can unleash?"

Wang Yi replied, "You ask me, who am I supposed to ask?"

As the smoke dissipated, Scyther lay on the ground, eyes spinning, unconscious, with occasional crackling electricity still emanating from its body.

Chen Kai finally let out a breath: "It's really satisfying like this! Power is justice!"

Xiao Mei wiped off the sweat from its body: "Rong!" (Yes!)

"Uh... Scyther is unable to battle, the winner is Flaaffy!" The referee finally reacted and announced the result.

The handsome young man recalled Scyther and said to it, "You worked hard."

Then he walked over and shook hands with Chen Kai: "Hello, my name is Cao Wenbin, that was a truly powerful Thunderbolt!"

Chen Kai had just been provoked, but seeing the other party so polite, he still politely said, "Your Scyther is not bad either, its speed is really fast. I also won by luck.

But we didn't hold back just now, is it okay?"

Cao Wenbin waved his hand and said, "No big deal, the Alliance Center is downstairs. It's just a minor injury, a few minutes of treatment will fix it."

"But that must cost a lot of money, right?"

"No, injuries sustained by us students while training at the Alliance training ground are treated for free. Otherwise, why would we all come here to train?

Is this your first time at the Alliance training ground?"

Chen Kai scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "Yes."

Cao Wenbin showed an 'as expected' expression and nodded: "No wonder I haven't seen you before. I look forward to seeing you again in the big competition next year for senior high school."

After saying that, Cao Wenbin left, but Chen Kai was utterly confused.

Senior year of high school hasn't even started yet, and he's already talking about senior year?

"Kai Ge is mighty!" The blond-haired Wang Tianxiang walked over at this moment, flattering him.

Chen Kai waved his hand and said modestly, "Just so-so, only slightly dirty at the edges."

"Kai Ge. How do you usually train your Xiao Mei? It's improving so fast. And it evolved so quickly!" The blond-haired boy asked his question.

Wang Yi also listened attentively from the side, wanting to learn from his experience.

Chen Kai put two fingers on his chin and thought for a moment.

"It should just be more battling, right?"

"Battling?"

Chen Kai this time said firmly: "Yes, I haven't done much recently, just been taking Xiao Mei to battle wild Pokemon on Zining Mountain, and it evolved without me even realizing it.

And the Alliance Center setting up these battlegrounds is also to encourage battling and sparring, isn't it?"

The blond-haired boy shouted excitedly, "Oh oh oh! I see! I understand!"

After listening, Wang Yi also stood by thoughtfully.

The blond-haired boy rushed to the front desk and shouted to the registration uncle, "Uncle! I want to battle! I want to be super strong!"

The registration uncle looked bewildered: "What is this? Huh?"

After a lot of pleading from the blond-haired boy, it was still useless.

Wang Yi seemed to have made up her mind and walked forward: "Uncle, my Pokemon is also newly received. Can I battle him?"

The uncle said helplessly, "Ah! Don't call me uncle anymore, I'm not that much older than you guys!"

"Oh! So you two are battling. But aren't you two acquainted? You could just train and battle at your own homes." The registration uncle's attitude softened considerably when he saw that it was a young girl speaking.

Wang Yi clenched her fingers and said, "Actually, when I first received my Pokemon a few days ago, I had a battle and lost terribly. I'm still a bit scared now.

These past few days, I even thought about switching to the cultural class.

But today, I came here and watched a few training battles. Many people were happy when they won, but even if their opponents lost, they weren't disheartened.

I feel like I shouldn't give up so early, Uncle! I want to have Pokemon battles! I want to get stronger with Wooloo!"

At this moment, Wooloo heard Wang Yi's words and bounced out of its Poké Ball, looking at Wang Yi with determined eyes.

"Wool!" (I want to get stronger too!)

The uncle said helplessly, "The atmosphere is already here, so I'll arrange for you two to battle.

Seriously, what kind of hot-blooded shonen manga is this...?"

Chen Kai stood awkwardly to the side.

What sin had he committed? He almost stifled Wang Yi's trainer dream in its cradle. What a sin.

There was already another group of people battling in the main arena, so the uncle led the three of them to a backup arena.

The registration uncle stood in the very middle: "There are no other referees, so I'll be the referee for this one!

This is a 1v1 training battle, just go easy on each other!"

Wang Yi encouraged Wooloo: "Go, Wooloo!"

Wooloo raised its head and cried, "Wool!" (I will.)

The blond-haired boy said arrogantly, "Sis, I won't go easy on you. Go, Dwebble, use Fury Cutter!"

"Don't be afraid of it, hit it back with Tackle!"

Wooloo headbutted Dwebble's claw. The Tackle move should have been half-effective against the Rock-type Dwebble, but Wooloo's ability was likely 'Fluffy'.

Both sides were evenly matched, both retreating 2 steps after one exchange.

The blond-haired boy still said arrogantly, "Not bad, Sis! But I'm definitely winning this one, Fury Cutter gets stronger with each hit! Dwebble, continue using Fury Cutter!"

Wang Yi commanded: "Wooloo! Continue using Defense Curl to hold on!"

Dwebble's claw slashed Wooloo again.

Despite the Defense Curl move boosting its defense and the Fluffy ability reducing damage, Wooloo was still seriously injured. Its four legs trembled slightly, clearly at its limit.

The blond-haired boy struck an arrogant pose and declared victory: "It's over, Dwebble, one last Fury Cutter!"

On the other side, Wang Yi screamed at the top of her lungs: "Wooloo!"

Wooloo seemed to respond to her cry, a brown light coalescing around its body as it charged into Dwebble.

Dwebble didn't expect it to unleash such energy and was startled, its claw a beat too slow, getting directly headbutted by Wooloo and sent flying into the blond-haired boy.

The uncle said in surprise, "This is, Counter... Is it inherited?"

He didn't even look at Wang Tianxiang and directly announced the result: "I declare, the winner of this training battle is Wooloo!"

Wang Yi cheered and jumped to Wooloo's side, her face beaming with a brilliant smile, gently stroking it: "That's great! Wooloo! We won!"

The registration uncle said with relief, "Yes, you won, but I recommend you go downstairs to treat Wooloo first."

"Okay, thank you, thank you!" Wang Yi bowed in thanks, then immediately hugged Wooloo and rushed downstairs.

The uncle muttered to himself, "This is the meaning of establishing the training ground! To ignite the friendship and bonds between everyone and Pokemon, that's why I stay and work here!"

"Uncle, what about over there?" Chen Kai walked over, interrupting the uncle's ramblings, and asked, pointing at the unconscious blond-haired boy and Dwebble.

"Don't call me uncle, hey!" The uncle said angrily, "As for them, I'll leave them to you. I still have to work."

With that, he scurried away.
