Chapter 584: Thunder God Goes to Battle, the Fifth Pokémon of the Brewing Light Gym!

【Wing King: I have heard from the Bud Crown that in the past, a Pokémon shared the metal on its body to help Sora and Zangmarant forge swords and shields. As far as I know, there is only one Pokémon in the world that can produce that kind of metal, and that is the mythical Pokémon, Melmetal. 】

【Sonia: Melmetal? This is the first time I have heard of this name. I know. Thank you very much, Mr. Naoki. I will continue to investigate Melmetal. 】

Looking at Sonia's reply, Naoki couldn't help but think of the regret and nostalgia that the Bud Crown expressed when he told the story of Melmetal.

There is no doubt that for the Galar region, Melmetal is also one of the heroes who saved Galar in the legend.

Thinking of this, Naoki replied.

【Wing King: I have something I want to ask you for help. 】

【Sonia: What is it? ]

[Wing King: If one day you find out the information about Melmetal and know its location, please tell me. The Bud Crown King wants to meet it. ]

[Sonia: Okay, I will! ]

The next day, the holiday of the Brewing Light Gym ended, and Naoki began his daily life of going to the gym to work.

At the Brewing Light Gym, Naoki sat in the office and looked at the list of challengers handed by Anya.

[Name: Cross, hometown: Kalos region, number of gym badges collected: 0, resume: 32nd place in the Kalos League Conference. ]

[Name: Ariel, hometown: Unova region, number of gym badges collected: 0, resume: top 10 in the Unova Conference. ]

[Name: Roel, hometown: Hoenn region, number of gym badges collected: 0, resume: top 8 in the Caiyou Conference, champion of the Gorgeous Competition. ]

[……]

After reading a page, Naoki couldn't help but open his eyes wide.

"Why are there so many people coming to challenge today?"

Anya hesitated and said, "Because of you, the Brewing Light Gym has been very popular on the Internet recently. People from many other regions said they would come here to challenge you..."

Naoki: "..."

He finally understood that these people were not here to collect gym badges to participate in the Padiya Conference, but to specifically harass him, Zapdos, and Jirachi!

"There are also many Internet celebrities who come to take advantage of the popularity... They are now gathered around the central square of Brewing Light City, trying to gain traffic and popularity by shooting legendary Pokémon." Anya said again.

Naoki: "..."

These guys are so hateful, they are all here to increase his workload!

Hard, fists hard.

"Are you going to accept the challenge now?" Anya couldn't help asking.

"Let's start!"

For a trainer whose purpose is not to collect gym badges, but to increase his workload, Naoki doesn't think it's necessary to deliberately let him go.

Just right, I can take this opportunity to deepen my relationship with Thunder God, Naoki thought.

"Okay, then I'll help you arrange it." Anya turned and left.

Naoki also brought a few Pokémon to the central square in the city center.

There were already crowds of people around, and when they saw Naoki coming, a burst of shouts broke out in the dense crowd.

Several Internet celebrities holding Rotom phones also pointed their cameras downwards and shouted:

"Family, look, this is the gym leader who has the legendary Pokémon Lightning Bird! I wonder if we can see Lightning Bird appear today? Let's wait and see!"

At this time, a figure slowly walked out of the contestant channel opposite the central square.

That was the first challenger today, Clos from the Kalos region.

At this moment, Clos was full of excitement, and she would soon have an exciting Pokémon battle with the legendary Pokémon!

The referee in the center of the venue looked at the two of them, and then said:

"Welcome challengers to the Brewing Light Gym. The rules of this gym battle are 1v1. Each person can only use one Pokémon. The battle will not end until the Pokémon of either party loses its combat ability!"

The spectators were also excited. The battle was about to begin. I wonder what Pokémon Naoki will send to participate in the battle today.

Will it be the lightning god Zapdos who can control lightning and control thunderclouds at will?

Or is it the mythical Pokémon Jirachi whose appearance is completely inconsistent with his strength, and can beat the opponent to pieces with a single move of Destruction Wish?

Or is it the special form of Babu Tubo that is rumored to be in charge of the lightning trial?

When the audience thought that they would see Naoki beating the challenger next, they were so excited that they trembled all over.

"Oh! Naoki! Naoki!"

"Go! Send out Zapdos and blow her up!"

"I want to see Jirachi, Jirachi is so cute! Let Jirachi appear again!"

At this moment, under the gaze of many onlookers and the people in the live broadcast room, Naoki, who was at one end of the battlefield, moved.

He took out a seemingly ordinary Poké Ball from his waist, and then threw the Poké Ball into the air.

People's eyes followed closely.

With a flash of white light, a Pokémon landed on the battlefield.

It was a mysterious Pokémon that looked like a tiger, had a serious expression, and had a sleek golden fur.

Its eyes were blood red, and its golden fur was dotted with black lightning patterns. Its sturdy limbs and sharp fangs all announced to the world that this Pokémon was extraordinary.

Such a figure appeared in the eyes of the people in the live broadcast room and the people around the square.

The next second, people opened their eyes wide and looked at the strange Pokémon in disbelief.

"Oh my God! Another completely unknown Pokémon!"

"Does anyone know it?"

"I know it! If I'm not mistaken, this Pokémon is probably the legendary Pokémon of the Johto region, Raikou!"

"Raikou?"

"Yes, it is rumored that it has an inseparable relationship with the Phoenix King. Raikou, Entei and Suicune were resurrected by the Phoenix King, and then began to wander around the world. As far as I know, there are even people who have been following Suicune's trail all their lives, but he didn't see Suicune until the last moment of his life."

A netizen in the Johto region popularized relevant information to everyone.

"Resurrected by Ho-Oh... Doesn't that mean there is only one Raikou, Suicune, and Entei in the world?!" Someone noticed the key.

"Yes, in a way, they are even rarer than Zapdos, because there are more than one sightings of Zapdos around the world."

And now, Naoki has captured such a rare Pokémon...

This means that Naoki is the only human in the world who has been recognized by Raikou!

Good, so awesome!

On the battlefield, Raikou glanced at the crowd around him. This was the first time he faced so many humans, and he couldn't help but be alert.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

The voice of the Rainbow Hero came from behind, and Raikou retracted his gaze and calmed down a little.

Cross on the opposite side looked at Raikou with excitement. She took out her Rotom phone and scanned Raikou.

[Raikou, the Thunder Pokémon, is known as a legendary Pokémon, and the detailed information is unknown! 】

"Thunder God? A legendary Pokémon?" Cross was very excited, and she took out a Poké Ball.

A random white light flashed, and a Pokémon that looked like a ninja appeared opposite Thunder God.

It was Greninja, one of the three great Pokémon in the Kalos region.

"In that case, let me see the power of the legend!" Cross said with full fighting spirit.

"..." Naoki: "As you wish."

"Swish!" The referee blew the whistle, announcing the official start of this Pokémon battle.

"Greninja, flying water shuriken!"

Greninja stood upright on its feet, jumped up high like a ninja, and the water energy surged wildly. Its hands condensed two water-blue shurikens and threw them at Thunder God.

"Supernatural power." Naoki said.

The next second, the Thunder God in front of him moved.

A layer of light blue light emerged from its blood-red eyes, and in an instant, an invisible terrifying energy surged out from Lei Gong's body towards the front.

The two flying water shurikens were instantly shattered.

Seeing this, Greninja was slightly startled, but the next second, the invisible force came in front of it.

Greninja instantly felt that he was hit by a huge force, and his whole body flew backwards.

"What?" Clos was shocked. What kind of force was that? Why was he hit before he saw it?

No, that's not right! Now is not the time to think about this!

"Greninja, cheer up!" Clos ordered quickly.

But it was too late, because Naoki on the opposite side had already reacted first.

"It's not good to be distracted during a battle! Thunder God, thunder!"

"Boom!"

A thunderous explosion sounded in the sky, and a terrifying electric energy surged from the Thunder God's body. The energy rushed straight into the sky, causing the sky to change suddenly, thunderclouds gathered, and huge thunder was brewing in the clouds.

The audience raised their heads and looked at the sky, looking at the terrifying scene.

"Danger! Greninja, get out of the way!" Kros shouted nervously.

A drop of cold sweat broke out on the forehead of Greninja on the field, and its figure flashed and moved rapidly on the battlefield, trying to avoid the attack.

However, the Thunder God's eyes were fixed on Greninja.

The next moment, a huge thunder and lightning fell from the sky.

With a boom, the entire battlefield was immediately submerged by lightning.

The audience around subconsciously closed their eyes, and the strong wind generated by the energy collision blew their hair.

At this moment, the whole audience was silent!

As expected, Greninja was defeated by the thunder. It fell to the ground, its eyes spinning like mosquito coils.

"So, so strong!"

"It's a legendary Pokémon! I'm so satisfied watching it!"

"Thunder God, Zapdos, and a Jirachi, my God! Naoki actually has so many legendary Pokémon!"

"In fact, what I want to know more is, Naoki obviously has such a strong strength, why does he still live in the countryside to run a ranch and be a farmer, instead of participating in various competitions to become a champion."

Regarding this question, someone who knows the inside story soon explained to him.

"You don't know this? It's not your fault, after all, you are an outsider."

"In fact, Mr. Naoki was originally a very powerful trainer. At that time, he was always traveling outside."

"Until one day, he got tired of the daily battle life, so he simply bought a piece of land in a secluded countryside and lived a peaceful life there with his Pokémon partners."

"And Mr. Naoki is a very good person! He set up many trials in the ranch for passing trainers to challenge, so as to hone their strength and help everyone become a stronger trainer!"

"Although everyone is often beaten by those powerful Pokémon, everyone is very happy, because fighting against champion-level Pokémon is also a rare opportunity for us!"

"Mr. Naoki is a great man!"

"..."

"You lost, I'm sorry, I can't give you the gym badge." Naoki looked at Cross opposite and said.

"Alas!" Cross sighed first, but she quickly recovered her spirit: "The Brewing Light Gym is really strong! I can see the legendary Pokémon with my own eyes and fight it. This trip is worthwhile!"

So this person is not here to challenge the gym to collect badges, right?

But there is no better way except fighting.

Forget it, next time I meet such a trainer, I will just use Babudu and Zapdos to fight!

After a day of fighting, Naoki returned to the ranch.

As soon as he sat down, Qishu showed him the comments about him on the Internet with Rotom's mobile phone.

Looking at what those netizens said about him, Naoki was silent.

How did the rumors spread like this?

"So, is what they said true?" Qishu asked with a smile.

"... I guess so!" Naoki thought for a while and said, "In fact, half of the reason is to help Pokémon exert their extra energy."

At the beginning, the mount goat ate too many green grass balls, causing the grass attribute energy in the body to reach a very exaggerated level. If they didn't vent through fighting, they would dance in the ranch.

"I see." Qishu stood up with a smile as if he had figured something out, and said, "You've worked hard today! Come and eat!"

"Okay."

Naoki nodded with a smile, and put the things in the gym behind him.

He looked at the Pokémon running around the house, and asked with a smile, "How is Babu-Dryde today?"

"Bamo~"

"Where are Dragonite and Motorbike?"

Dragonite said that he had slept under the tree for a day.

Motorbike sneezed. It had been catching butterflies in the garden all day today, and it had inhaled a lot of pollen, and it couldn't help sneezing.

Naoki turned his attention to other Pokémon.

Before he could ask, the Eevees took the initiative to run over and told him what they had done today.

Naoki touched their heads one by one, and the living room was filled with a happy atmosphere.

Not far away, Qishu and his sister Ai Guanshi brought the steaming food to the table together.

Meanwhile, in the Unova region, Eindok.

Mew and Baby Bear were also preparing to eat dinner today.

They took out the Pokémon food that Naoki prepared for them from their bags, spread a small blanket on the ground, and put the food and juice on it.

Next, it was happy dinner time!

The two Pokémon picked up the food with their paws, opened their mouths and took a bite, feeling the delicious taste in their mouths, Mew and Baby Bear both squinted their eyes happily.

In the dense bushes, a petite Pokémon with a pair of sky-blue eyes and big "V"-shaped ears was hiding in the dark and observing the two strange Pokémon.

The food they eat looks so delicious...

"Nini!" Got it!

Its figure flashed and disappeared from the original place, and then entered the invisible state. Then, while the two Pokémon were not paying attention, it secretly took away the food placed beside them, and then hid behind the tree and happily feasted.

Mew and Bear finished the Pofen in their mouths, and then happily stretched out their hands to take a piece, but they touched nothing.

Turning their heads, they saw that there was only one Pofen left where they had just put several pieces!

The two Pokémon were shocked.

"Miu?!"

"Yi?!"

Their dinner was gone!
