The night gradually deepened.
On his first day arriving in Kalos, Lu Ye inspected the coffee shop and also participated in a casual tournant against the Water Absorb Charizard.
There was suspicion of smurfing, but this was precisely the personal hobby of a champion.
Just as Cynthia loved ice cream, Steven was devoted to mining, and Dan Emperor... Dan Emperor was busy accepting endorsents.
Returning to the house in the backyard.
Blastoise's water tank was already in place, with the turtle retracted into its shell inside the tank, blowing bubbles while recovering from its injuries.
"Kah!"
Just having taken two Dragon Claws head-on... how was that any different from being on the brink of death!
Had to quickly use "Aqua Ring" for recovery!
"Ga! (σ´∀`)σ"
Sirfetch’d glanced at the leek growing vigorously in the potted plant and nodded with satisfaction.
Every morning, being able to eat fresh leek leaves... this was my greatest pursuit, quack!
"Chuckie doo-ee~"
Togepi sat on the carpet, turned on the large LCD screen on the TV cabinet, and happily started playing gas.
The sumr night was stiflingly hot, but the room was filled with a warm and joyful atmosphere.
Lu Ye glanced at the screen, asked Little Rotom to turn on the air conditioner, lay on the sofa, and browsed the group chat.
**
Inside the group chat.
A-Jin's mute had been lifted again, probably by Red's doing.
After all, the two had trained together at Mt. Silver before, and A-Jin had once rescued Red from a battlefield of conflicts.
From another perspective, going to Mt. Silver to train with Red right in front of Green—
A-Jin was really super brave!
The group was discussing the gym assessnt at the end of next month.
Every region had gym assessnts, where alliance inspectors periodically visited and reported the results to the Pokémon Inspection Agency. Gyms that didn't et the standards could even be forced to close.
The inspection dates varied by region, and currently, the Kanto region's gym review was about to take place.
"So, the gym inspection is next month?" Misty said, "This is too sudden."
Lance explained: "The alliance assigns inspectors to randomly select and conduct battles... not every gym will be assessed."
"Last ti, I was the one who got selected." Marshal said with a strange expression, "The Vermilion Gym was shut down for reorganization several days!"
Marshal said angrily: "That was guidance, guiding the younger generation!"
"This lady is not always at the gym." Lila, who also worked as a teacher at Celadon University, said: "I believe Mr. Lance, you have heard the reason."
Lance sighed: "Although that's true, I can't influence the results of the random selection..."
A-Jin: "Really?"
Xiao Yin echoed: "I don't believe it."
[Group mbers 'A-Jin' and 'Xiao Yin' have been muted for 2 hours by admin 'Yu Long Du'.]
Nassi brushed her black hair and said coldly: "It's best not to inspect the Saffron Gym."
Brock narrowed his eyes: "I might be working part-ti at the museum then... Jiro will handle the assessnt matters."
Green crossed his arms: "Just let the inspector challenge my Alakazam;
it will guard the Cerulean Gym for ."
Lance: "..."
Just based on the difficulty of implenting this job, it's understandable why Red transferred the champion title to !
Lance rubbed his temples.
I know the strength of these gym leaders well, but there really is a need for assessnt.
Like Marshal's Vermilion Gym, where his deputy, Lt. Surge, acts as the gym leader every day... if it doesn't get reorganized, then what will!
"Teacher Lu, how about you simply serve as the inspector?"
Lu Ye was taken aback: "What's in it for ?"
"Nothing." Lance said: "But the alliance will provide Pokémon for the assessnt."
Lu Ye looked complicated: "So you're not paying a single penny, and I have to help the alliance raise Pokémon?"
"Goodbye!" Lu Ye closed the private window.
Lance didn't mind either;
since there was still ti before the assessnt, he could continue recruiting Teacher Lu.
Cynthia was gathering with Fumiko and others in Undella Town. Seeing Lu Ye online, she smiled and asked:
"How does it feel arriving in Kalos?"
"Not much feeling." Lu Ye said, "Mainly, I miss you."
Cynthia was stunned, then smiled slightly and was about to reply when she saw Kanto's Ice-type Elite Four mber, Lorelei, co online.
Lorelei: [Licking lemon·gif]
Flint posted a Pokédex photo of Arcanine and said seriously: "The Single Dog Association strongly condemns this."
Ash's figure subconsciously appeared in Xiao Huang's mind;
she blushed and shook her head.
Red, as if telepathic, popped up and said:
"@Ash, how's the gym challenge going?"
Ash said dejectedly: "Lost a gym battle..."
"Don't be discouraged." Red smiled: "If you have ti, you can co to Mt. Silver and train with !"
Ash was stunned, his eyes burning with flas: "No problem! Once I win the Unova Conference championship, I'll co to Mt. Silver!"
Lu Ye raised an eyebrow.
Then Ash would probably never make it to Mt. Silver in this lifeti.
Co to think of it, given Satoshi's physique, whether he could beat Red in a wild battle was unknown, but he should be more than capable of beating Bruno...
Lu Ye didn't take Lance's invitation about the 'alliance inspector' seriously.
What was important now was to find a few more employees for the coffee shop and strive to open as soon as possible.
After going offline, Lu Ye called Cynthia and discussed the coffee shop matters.
"Jero has years of butler experience." Cynthia thought for a mont and said: "He should know suitable waitstaff."
Jero served as Cynthia's butler, responsible for managing the vacation villa in Undella Town, Unova.
Lu Ye: "If it's a Pansage or a Panpour, forget it... although they'd be quite suitable as waitstaff."
In battle restaurants or coffee shops, Pansage, Panpour, and Pansear were standard configuration.
Auntie Gothitelle's ability was "Shadow Tag," so there would be no more worry about custors skipping the bill!
Additionally, the coffee shop's courtyard was spacious enough to accommodate multiple Pokémon.
Lu Ye thought of the lush sycamore tree in the courtyard and, considering w's ability to traverse space, fell into contemplation:
"That way, the courtyard could have another little cutie... not just a Legendary Pokémon, but also a mascot!"
...
Early next morning.
Professor Sycamore's Research Institute.
Wearing a white lab coat, Professor Sycamore rubbed his stubble, looked at the data on the holographic screen, glanced at Alain beside him, and said:
"You challenged Teacher Lu last night?"
Alain silently nodded.
"Really..." Professor Sycamore scratched his hair, stared at the screen, and said casually: "You didn't anger him, did you?"
"No, he is a very approachable champion and gave great inspiration." Alain said.
Professor Sycamore nodded, crossed his arms, continued examining the data on the screen, and said softly:
"Otherwise, why would so many people call him teacher..."
"Teacher Lu should be coming to the research institute soon." Alain said.
"Perfect, the analysis results are out—"
Professor Sycamore narrowed his eyes, then sighed almost imperceptibly:
"So it's Tyranitar's ga Stone after all..."
He had entrusted Alain to excavate ga Stones from ruins and conducted analysis.
"So it's Tyranitar's ga Stone after all..."
After all, his partner was a Garchomp. If it were Garchomp's ga Stone, he could collect ga Evolution data imdiately.
But now, wanting to collect data on ga Tyranitar would probably require considerable effort...
Alain glanced at the discouraged Professor Sycamore, and suddenly recalled a timid Larvitar.
It had been in the courtyard at the ti, watching Charizard and Blastoise's match... while munching on potato chips!
"Doctor, Teacher Lu seems to be raising a Larvitar." Alain spoke up.
"Larvitar?" A strange glint flashed in Professor Sycamore's eyes.
Alain nodded: "With Teacher Lu's raising ability, evolving into Tyranitar is only a matter of ti."
This young man had not yet realized that Teacher Lu's Squirtle had been stuck for two whole major level segnts.
And Larvitar could evolve early, but because it was greedy and Pupitar couldn't consu food, it wanted to maintain its initial form a bit longer.
"Alain..." Professor Sycamore sought his opinion: "If possible, I'd like to temporarily entrust this Tyranitar ga Stone to Teacher Lu."
Trainers who raised Tyranitar were already rare, and the threshold for performing ga Evolution was extrely high.
"Alain..." Professor Sycamore sought his opinion: "If possible, I'd like to temporarily entrust this Tyranitar ga Stone to Teacher Lu."
Alain had no objections;
this ga Stone was essentially his tuition fee for seeking guidance from the champion.
Rather than finding another trainer, it was better to give the ga Stone to Teacher Lu.
After hearing Alain's account, Professor Sycamore laughed heartily:
"Of course, no problem! Once Teacher Lu arrives, we'll give him the ga Stone—this is truly wonderful!"
