I got the Pokémon

The swarms of giant hornets grew larger and larger, and soon there were two or three hundred of them!

Even from a distance, you can hear the buzzing sound of their wings.

It is said that someone has done a study before, investigating what dangers people are most reluctant to encounter in the wild, and swarms of giant hornets are at the top of the list!
These forest hunters have cold hearts, strong desire to attack, and live in groups. They are often deadly to new trainers or ordinary travelers who stray into their territory.

However, although Metagross and the Psychic Doll were surrounded and chased by the Beedrills, Xia You and his companions still adhered to their pre-match principles and did not participate in them or lend a helping hand, but watched the subsequent developments.

In fact, it is not difficult for the two Pokémon to disperse these giant Beedrills, but that is under the premise of no interference. Now, they have to be wary of each other, be careful of the attacks launched from time to time by each other, and avoid being surrounded. The difficulty is naturally increased exponentially.

However, they did not just focus on avoiding the Beedrills. Instead, they walked and fought back, fighting and retreating at the same time. Although it seemed that the situation was very unfavorable to them, there was basically no major danger.

The battlefield was getting closer and closer to Xia You and his companions.

Even the buzzing sound of the giant hornet beside their ears was transmitted more clearly into the ears of the three people.

Xia You and Yu Jin remained the same, with no change in expression, but Xiao Yao became visibly nervous.

She was not yet able to remain indifferent in the face of such danger. Although she knew that Brother Xia You was by her side and there was someone tall to hold up the sky even if it collapsed, she still secretly weighed her own strength in the face of such danger.

Whether it's RoboPlanet, Squirtle or Snorlax, even if they were combined, they obviously couldn't resist so many Beedrills at the same time.

Fortunately, Xia You was right beside her, otherwise she would have hidden herself away to avoid the spotlight.

Through the big screen, we can see that although Beedrills fall from time to time, it is still a drop in the bucket for such a large number. But at this moment, there was a sudden commotion on both sides of the chasing Beedrills, and as the referee robot's perspective turned, several people immediately saw that the commotion was caused by Xia You's Dragonite and Mantis!

The reason why they appeared here was that they must have heard the fighting here, so they hurried over.

At the same time, it also proves that they indeed won in their respective competitions!

With the addition of these two powerful Pokémon, the situation instantly turned around.

As they attacked, a large number of Beedrills fell down, and the remaining Beedrills, seeing that the situation was not good, also fled in a hurry. In just a flash, they disappeared completely.

All I can say is, they come quickly and go even faster!

If there weren't many unconscious Beedrills lying on the ground and the surrounding trees had not suffered some damage, who would have thought that a battle had just taken place here?

After these giant Beedrills left, Metagross and the Psychic Doll no longer fled, but confronted each other again.

However, as Dragonite and Giant Mantis slowly approached, the Psychic Dolls surrounded in the middle felt more and more uneasy.

After all, from these two Pokémon, it clearly felt a powerful aura that was completely different from those wild Beedrills. It was already fighting on equal terms with Metagross, and now there were two more Pokémon coming. How could it not panic?
However, Dragonite and Giant Mantis obviously have no interest in fighting with more people against fewer.

When they got close to a certain distance, they stopped moving forward and left some space for the Metagross and the Psychic Doll to fight.

This also made Yu Jin, who was watching the game, look up to Xia You again.

He initially thought that the young man, when proposing a 3-on-3 melee in the forest battlefield, wanted to concentrate his firepower to defeat one of his Pokémon in the chaotic situation, then create a local firepower advantage and ultimately win the battle.

But now it seems that he didn't intend to do so at all. He simply thought that fighting one-on-one was too troublesome, so he let them all go on the field at once!

This can be seen from the fact that Dragonite and Mantis did not attack the telekinetic clay doll all at once!
What a terrible person.

In the forest battlefield, seeing that Dragonite and Mantis did not take the opportunity to attack, but merely blocked his escape route, the Psychic Clay Doll no longer paid attention to them, but focused his attention entirely on the Metagross in front of him.

In terms of strength, Psychic Golem and Metagross, one is the main Pokémon of Pioneering Brain Yukin and has been with Yukin for many years, and the other, although had a wonderful performance in the Caiyou Conference, has not entered his main lineup. Therefore, in Xia You's opinion, they should be at the same level, and if they fight, they are truly evenly matched.

The fact was just as he thought.

When the telekinetic clay doll and the giant golden monster started fighting again, just like before, the fight was still evenly matched.

However, no matter how evenly matched the two sides are, there will always be a moment when the winner is decided.

After two destructive rays shot out from each body and collided in the forest, the suspense was finally revealed.

When the smoke from the explosion cleared, Xia You and the other two hurriedly looked at the big screen, only to see that among the debris on the ground, the Metagross and the Psychic Clay Doll were lying on the ground with wounds all over their bodies!
It seems that they finally fought to the death together.

All I can say is that this is both unexpected and reasonable.

After all, these Pokémon of Xia You are indeed very powerful, but the most important reason why they can be invincible lies in Xia You's brain and command. Now without his command, it is equivalent to lack of plug-in, and it has become a Pokémon with relatively good strength again. Being able to fight with the Psychic Clay Doll to a draw is already a very good result.

Therefore, Xia You was naturally quite satisfied with this result, but Xiaoyao and Yu Jin both shook their heads slightly.

Xiao Yao was naturally disappointed that he failed to achieve better results because of Xia You's Metagross and simply fell down at the same time as his opponent.

As for Yujin...

He also felt a little regretful that the telekinetic clay doll was unable to stand up.

But fortunately, even if both of them died, at least they had successfully defeated one, so they did not lose all their face.

"Oh my, I was lucky enough to win this game. It seems that my strength is still as good as before!"

From Yu Jin's tone, one can clearly feel that even though this old man was defeated and almost had his head shaved, his mentality is still very good.

"It's not inferior to the past." Xia You also smiled, "Your Pokémon is really powerful, otherwise my Metagross wouldn't have tried its best to fight the Psychic Doll and both of us would be injured. It seems that I still need to work harder!"

Hearing this, Yu Jin laughed out loud.

Don't be fooled by the nice words this young man says now. There were so many challengers in the past who were defeated by his telekinetic clay doll. He is naturally very clear about the strength of his Pokémon.

Judging from the performance just now, Dragonite and Mantis are undoubtedly stronger than that Metagross. It can be seen that Metagross is definitely not the first-line lineup of this man. He used his main force to tie with the opponent's ordinary lineup, which made him clearly realize the gap between himself and this man. He also said that he should keep working hard. If he really keeps working hard, he will not be able to beat even the ordinary lineup.

At this time, the referee robot had already begun to collect the defeated Pokémon such as Yujin.

Just after releasing the Pokémon, Yukin handed the Poké Ball to it. This referee robot first put the unconscious Psychic Doll back into the Poké Ball, and then went to look for the traces of the other two Pokémon.

As for the Metagross that was also unconscious, Dragonite picked it up and returned towards the battlefield with Giant Mantis.

After chatting with Xia You for a few more words, Yu Jin handed a shining gold coin to Xia You.

"Please accept it. This is a spiritual symbol of the Battle Palace and proof of your victory over me."

Like the previous symbols, this spiritual symbol is also made of gold, but the pattern on it is very ordinary, like a square block with grooves engraved on it!
……

After returning from the battle palace, Xia You and Xiao Yao returned to the quiet town on the Metal Island.

This challenge went much more smoothly than expected.

When we returned from the battle palace, it was just noon.

Xia You didn't even feel like he was participating in the whole thing. He just watched the show the whole time. He easily got the ribbon medal just by the performance of the Pokémon themselves.

It can be said that this is the most relaxing facility he has encountered since challenging the battle frontier.

Of course, this is only for him.

If it were someone else, wanting to defeat Yukin's Pokémon without the involvement of the trainer, the difficulty can be imagined. Even I have encountered this situation many times before, and the Pokémon has already been trained. If it were Xiaozhi or other trainers, who knows how hard it would be.

But no matter what, a win is a win, and the trip was not in vain. At least I got to see the spectacular scenery!

It's time to move on to the next place.

But it is too remote after all. When Xia You arrived at the ticket office at the small pier and inquired, he learned that the next passenger ship arriving at Metal Island would not arrive until three days later!
This is really bad news.

I didn’t expect it was so easy to come here, but now I can’t go back!
There was no other choice, Xia You could only release his mount No. 2.

Dragonite appeared in front of Xia You and Xiao Yao again.

Although they had just experienced a battle, due to the certain gap in strength, Dragonite did not suffer any damage. In addition, after resting in the Poké Ball for a while, even his physical strength was restored.

"Thanks a lot."

Xiaoyao greeted it with a smile, and then with Xia You's help, the two of them rode on Dragonite's back together.

After the two of them were seated firmly, Dragonite flapped its small wings and flew high into the sky.

The breeze blew on her body, and Xiaoyao squinted her eyes comfortably. When the Dragonite flew to a certain height and began to stabilize, she looked back and found that the metal island was getting smaller and smaller under her. In just a moment, it was left far behind.

Xia You also flew into the sky after a long time.

So far in his journey, he has had two "mounts", the first of which was the Charizard far away in the Charizard Canyon, and the second was the Dragonite under him.

And they also have their own characteristics when flying.

For example, when Charizard was flying with Xia You on board, it felt more powerful and more stable, but its speed was not as fast as Dragonite.

As for Dragonite, it is more lively. It likes to go up and down and fly close to the water surface. It does not look so stable.

It is impossible to say who has better flying skills, we can only say that they each have their own strengths and styles.

The next destination of the two was not too far from here, just near the City of Crimson. With the flying speed of Dragonite, it was naturally not as slow as taking a boat. However, even so, when it was getting dark, they were still unable to return to the mainland. They could only land on a nearby island and look for a place to stay.

Fortunately, the small island they landed on was perhaps closer to the mainland and was obviously much more prosperous and larger than the Metal Island.

Although the forest area is smaller and there are more mountains, the most important thing is that the town on the island is larger, there are more people, and even the streets are tidier and cleaner, and it looks very lively.

Dragonite slowly landed on the town on the island.

After asking the residents around, they found out that the island was called Vanilla Island, and the town they were in was called Moyu Town, which was one of the largest towns in the nearby sea area!
In addition to these, they also found out that an irregular orienteering competition will be held here early tomorrow morning. Humans and Pokémon will team up to quickly circle the five locations on the island. The first person to reach the finish line will receive the Pokémon Friendship King medal and an additional prize, Vanilla Island specialty fruit!

Cross-country racing?
Specialty fruit?

As soon as she heard about food, Xiaoyao was obviously interested in this competition.

All I can say is, it’s better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early.

If their challenge to the palace had not gone so smoothly today, they would not have arrived here the day before the competition, and if they had not arrived, they would naturally miss tomorrow's cross-country competition.

Following the street, the two came to the Pokémon Center outside the town.

Along the way, Xiaoyao heard the pedestrians around her, both adults and children, talking about tomorrow's cross-country competition, which made her even more excited.

It wasn't until they entered the restaurant and had dinner that Xiaoyao finally couldn't help herself and said to Xia You: "Brother Xia You, let's go to the cross-country competition tomorrow!"

Xia You chuckled: "Participating in the competition? I see that your goal is not to win medals, but to win those specialty fruits, right?"

"Hehe." Xiaoyao smiled shyly, but also admitted generously, "Whether it's a medal or a fruit, I want to get it! I just heard that this cross-country competition is not a battle of combat ability, but just a simple cross-country race. If that's the case, I have a chance to defeat you~" (End of this chapter)
