Pokemon, but I'm a breeder

"Brother Ozawa, it's not good!"

Lu Ze also left Sinnoh after he made an agreement with Sirona to challenge her after successfully entering the senior ball rankings.

Continue to challenge upward and constantly improve your ranking.

It's a pity that there is no battle celebration during this time.

Although Lu Ze is very strong, his improvement in ranking is not very fast.

Mainly because it’s a waste of time on the road.

This morning, Lu Ze, who was about to leave for the Galar region, suddenly received a call from Xiaozhi.

But what surprised Lu Ze was that the voice on the other end of the phone was not Xiaozhi's.

But...

Xiaohao?

Lu Ze looked at the caller ID on his cell phone with some strangeness. After seeing that it was indeed Xiaozhi, he spoke.

"Xiao Hao?"

"What's wrong with Xiaozhi?"

"Xiao Zhi seems to be autistic."

Xiao Hao on the other end of the phone spoke anxiously, and Lu Ze had to comfort Xiao Hao first.

"What's the situation? Tell me specifically?"

After Lu Ze finished speaking, Xiaohao also talked about what happened to Xiaozhi during this period.

During this time, Xiaozhi has been specially training his Riolu and Green Onion Duck.

When I went to Golden City a few days ago, I met a karate girl from the Galar region.

The girl's Pokémon are a Wrestler and an Octopus.

Xiaozhi was defeated by the Octopus Warrior without any ability to fight back.

Although he was defeated by the Eight-clawed Martial Master, Xiaozhi did not suffer any consequences and just went through special training again.

But in the next challenge of the Pokémon World Championship, Ash failed twice again.

Both battles pitted Riolu against tentacle-type Pokémon.

An octopus barrel and a stinging jellyfish.

They all failed in the same way, Riolu was entangled in tentacles in close combat, and then defeated.

"What should I do? Xiaozhi, who has lost three games in a row, is now autistic."

"He asked Riolu not to fight up close, but to use long-range attacks!"

As Xiao Hao talked, he became anxious again.

Lu Ze helplessly raised his forehead and said, "Where are you now? I'll go find you."

"Now in the research institute in Kuye City."

"OK."

After Lu Ze nodded, he hung up the phone.

After listening to what Xiaohao said just now, Lu Ze probably understood.

The first opponent Xiaozhi will most likely encounter is Caido.

As one of the gym leaders in the Galar region, Caidou is still very powerful.

This time when Lu Ze went to Galar, he also wanted to challenge Caidou.

After all, among Lu Ze's few memories, Caidou's ranking in the Pokémon World Championship should be among the top thirty.

The ranking shouldn't be that high now, but it's certainly not low.

But is Ayadou in the Kanto area now?

If we meet, we can have a fight.

But we still need to solve Xiaozhi’s problem first.

Xiaozhi's question, in Lu Ze's opinion, is a typical over-the-top problem.

The reason why Riolu is not allowed to fight in close combat is mainly because Riolu did not defeat the opponent in close combat.

Plus three battles, three defeats, all three basically failed in the same way.

Controlled by the opponent's tentacles and then defeated.

Obviously the psychological shadow is too great.

The way to get Xiaozhi to come out is also very simple.

Just break Xiaozhi's psychological shadow.

However, are any of your Pokémon capable of using tentacles?

Lu Ze was thinking as he flew towards the Kanto area.

Fortunately, he is now in the Johto area, not very far from the Kanto area.

It’s just that I didn’t see A’Du this time.

It is said that A'Du is preparing for the Eight Masters competition.

You should be able to see it by then.

Lu Ze quickly arrived at the Sakuragi Research Institute in Kuye City.

"Ozawa is here, please come in."

As soon as Lu Ze and the Crossed Bat landed, Dr. Sakuragi opened the door.

After seeing Lu Ze outside the door, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and invited Lu Ze in.

"Ozawa is here for Xiaozhi, right?"

"Yes, Xiaohao called me and said that Xiaozhi seemed to be very serious."

Lu Ze nodded helplessly, but Dr. Sakuragi laughed.

"Although it is indeed serious, I believe Xiaozhi will realize this soon."

After Dr. Sakuragi finished speaking, he looked at Lu Ze with a smile: "But your arrival should make Xiaozhi recover faster."

"After all, you are the person Xiaozhi trusts the most."

Dr. Sakuragi felt a little emotional. The person Xiaozhi trusted the most was Dr. Oak.

But after a trip to the Kalos region, the person Xiaozhi trusted the most became Lu Ze.

After all, it feels so comfortable to have someone take care of everything no matter what!

Although Dr. Sakuragi doesn't quite understand it, he understands it.

It was probably the feeling that Dr. Ohmu was standing behind him.

"Xiao Zhi, do you want to have a battle?"

Together, Lu Ze quickly arrived in front of Xiaozhi.

Looking at Xiaozhi squatting on the ground with his knees in his arms and a black line on his head, Lu Ze did not hesitate and directly invited Xiaozhi to fight.

"Brother Ozawa, why are you here?"

Xiaozhi looked up and asked in surprise when he saw it was Lu Ze.

"Xiao Hao said that you are in a state of autism. Let me come over and enlighten you."

Lu Ze smiled, and then extended the invitation again: "How about, do you want to have a battle?"

"Just use your Riolu!"

"good!"

Xiaozhi hesitated for a moment, but still agreed to Lu Ze's request for a battle.

After all, Xiaozhi would not refuse a battle.

"Xiao Hao, can I borrow your Pokémon?"

Riolu is still at the senior level, while the weakest one in Lu Ze's hands is already at the second stage of the King level.

If Porygon were to fight against Ash's Riolu, it would have no effect at all.

"sure."

After Xiaohao was stunned for a moment, he quickly nodded in agreement.

Together, the three of them soon arrived at the nursery behind the Sakuragi Research Institute.

In the nursery, there are Pokémon that Xiaohao has captured and fostered here.

When Lu Ze saw this nursery, it was as if he saw his own nursery.

However, the diversity of Pokémon in Xiaohao's nursery is not comparable to that in his own nursery.

Lu Ze quickly chose the Pokémon to fight Riolu.

"Just him."

"Giant vine?"

Xiao Hao glanced at Xiao Zhi in surprise, and sure enough, Xiao Zhi's face also looked a little bad.

"What, don't you dare?"

"Of course not!"

For Xiaozhi, the provoking method is still very effective.

No, Xiaozhi immediately agreed.

Dr. Sakuragi looked on with a smile and had no intention of speaking.

The battle between the two soon began.

Lu Ze’s Pokémon is Xiao Hao’s giant vine.

Xiaozhi still sent out Riolu.

Before the battle began, although Xiaozhi hesitated for a moment, he still motioned to Riolu not to get close.

"The battle begins!"

This battle is not a Pokémon World Championship challenge, but an ordinary battle, so naturally there is no Drone Trom as the referee.

The person who acts as the referee is Xiao Hao.

After announcing the start of the battle, Xiaozhi immediately commanded his Riolu to launch an attack.

"Vacuum wave!"

Riolu raised his hand and continuously used [vacuum wave] to attack the giant vines.

"Grow down your roots, then use Power Whip to defend!"

Lu Ze spoke, and the giant vine also reacted.

Giant Philodendron is also a senior-level Pokémon, and both sides have the same strength, so Lu Ze is not worried.

After [taking root], the giant vine's thick vines waved around, easily resisting Riolu's [vacuum wave].

"Xiao Zhi, do you think this is useful?"

Please...you...collect_6_9_书_Bar (Six//Nine//Books//Bar)

Seeing that Xiaozhi refused to give up and asked his Riolu to use [vacuum wave] again, but was completely blocked by the giant vine again, Lu Ze also asked Xiaozhi.

"Damn it!"

Xiaozhi gritted his teeth slightly, but there was no way to solve it.

"Riolu, use vacuum wave again!"

"He used Root, unable to move, go around behind him and attack!"

Xiaozhi's reaction was still very fast, but unfortunately, if he didn't dare to fight in close combat, Riolu would basically be half disabled.

"Vine Whip, catch him!"

Although Riolu's movement speed is very good, it is not as fast as the vines.

Riolu is caught again!

At this time, the fear once caused by the eight-clawed martial artist, the octopus barrel and the stinging jellyfish came to my mind.

While Xiaozhi was stunned, Lu Ze also commanded the giant vines to launch an attack.

A [Sludge Bomb] directly took away Riolu.

Xiaozhi fell silent and stood there with his head lowered.

"Lucario, take Riolu for treatment."

Lu Ze threw the elf ball, and when Lucario appeared, he immediately picked up Riolu, and under the leadership of Dr. Sakuragi, ran towards the place where he could recover his strength.

Xiao Hao stood beside Xiao Zhi with some worry and looked at Xiao Zhi.

Lu Ze didn't speak, but just looked at Xiaozhi.

After a while, Xiaozhi's voice was slightly hoarse, but he took the initiative to speak.

Looking at Lu Ze, he asked: "Brother Ozawa, facing this situation..."

"You can think about it for yourself first, what should Riolu do in this situation?"

"When Riolu comes back, tell Riolu what you think."

"Then I'll tell you what I think."

"good."

After Xiaozhi nodded, he looked at the giant vine and began to think.

Although Giant Vine is not a Pokémon with tentacles like Octopus Barrel, the Octopus Master.

But the vines of the giant vine are almost the same as tentacles.

And faster and longer.

How to crack it?

Xiaozhi frowned and thought seriously.

After a while, Lucario came back with Riolu.

Riolu followed Lucario dejectedly. It was obvious that he was a little frustrated by being beaten like this in front of his idol.

"How's it going? Have you thought about it?"

"Well, I want to try it."

Xiaozhi suddenly raised his head, looked at Lu Ze seriously and said.

"Okay, come on then."

Lu Ze chuckled and returned behind the giant vine.

"Giant vine, vine whip, catch him!"

"Dodge, use vacuum wave!"

Xiaozhi also quickly directed his Riolu to dodge.

While dodging, use [Vacuum Wave] to attack the vines.

"Energy ball!"

But the next second, Riolu was hit by the [Energy Ball].

While being knocked away, [Vine Whip] caught Riolu again.

Xiaozhi was a little dumbfounded.

Why, can it still be like this?

"Your opponent will not let you dodge like this all the time."

After Lu Ze finished speaking, he commanded the giant vine to put Riolu down.

Riolu also fell silent and looked at Xiaozhi blankly.

Xiaozhi didn't know how to continue.

Now Xiaozhi is completely confused.

"Lucario, let's show you."

Seeing Xiaozhi like this, Lu Ze also waved and motioned for Lucario to come forward.

"Giant vines, use vine whip to wrap around Lucario."

After Lu Ze finished speaking, the giant vine hesitated and glanced at Lucario.

After all, there is still a huge gap in strength between him and Lucario.

But in the end, he still used [Vine Whip] to wrap around him.

"Lucario, come up with your method."

Lucario nodded, and then under the gazes of Ash and Riolu, he directly used the waveguide to condense a stick.

The stick formed by the waveguide struck left and right continuously. After pushing aside the vine whip, it directly hit the giant vine.

"Close combat?"

Xiaozhi was a little surprised, but his eyes suddenly lit up.

He seemed to understand something.

In the horrified eyes of the giant vine, Lucario successfully stopped before hitting the giant vine.

Lu Ze also looked at Xiaozhi and Riolu with bright eyes.

"Do you understand?"

"Understood!"

Xiaozhi nodded vigorously: "Escape blindly won't work."

"Riolu is good at melee attacks. Using long-range attacks is obviously an escape!"

Xiaozhi said, squatting down and looking at Riolu: "Because of my problems, you failed so many times."

"Leo!"

Riolu shook his head vigorously, and then stretched out his fist towards Ash.

Xiaozhi also laughed happily: "Then let's work together and successfully defeat the Eight-clawed Martial Master next time we meet him!"

"Leo!"

Riolu nodded vigorously, then looked at Lucario.

Lucario scratched his head strangely, then turned to look at Lu Ze, and said to Lu Ze.

"He wanted me to teach him how to use those two skills I just used."

Lu Ze glanced at Xiaozhi and Riolu with bright eyes, and couldn't help but smile.

"If you want to teach him, sure."

"It doesn't matter if you rest here for a while."

Lu Ze's current ranking has reached over 200.

The semi-finals haven't started yet, and there is still plenty of time to continue ranking.

"Over in Zijin City, there is a Salon Scroll lying across the middle of the road. It is said that there are unknown Pokémon inside. Do you want to take a look?"

After returning to Sakuragi Research Institute, Dr. Sakuragi also smiled and asked Xiaozhi and the others.

"An unknown Pokémon, I must conquer him!"

When Xiao Hao heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.

"Let's go and take a look together!"

"Then let's go."

Xiaozhi looked at Lu Ze, and Lu Ze nodded in agreement.
