I, Xiao Mao, want to become a Pokémon Master!

"Flame Wheel!" Shigeru commanded.

Chapter 87: All 8 Badges Collected

"Awoo~!"

Arcanine let out a long howl, and flames shot out from its flaxen fur, enveloping it completely and transforming it into a ferocious fire beast.

The next second, Arcanine charged towards Scyther.

"Air Slash!" Wu Xiong had no intention of letting Scyther fight Arcanine; that was fire, and Scyther rushing in would be suicide.

"twitter!"

Scyther swung its scythe, unleashing a barrage of air slashes. Arcanine skillfully dodged all the air slashes and then accelerated towards the enemy.

"Cross Slash!" Wu Xiong had no choice but to retaliate when his opponent was right in his face.

"twitter!"

Like a moth drawn to a flame, the Scyther charged towards the flaming Arcanine.

boom! ! !

As the two clashed, the flames on Arcanine instantly spread to Scyther.

"twitter!"

The mantis cried out in pain and retreated rapidly, using its scythe to extinguish the flames on its body.

But Arcanine wouldn't give it a chance. It unleashed a burst of flame that instantly engulfed Scyther. The flames roared past, and Scyther, charred black, crashed to the ground.

Although Scyther can use Shadow Clone, it's useless against Arcanine, which has mastered scent detection, because Shadow Clone has no scent.

For elves with a keen sense of smell, shadow clones have no effect on them; of course, this requires training to master.

Arcanine defeated two of Takeo's Pokémon, leaving Takeo with only one Pokémon.

"Has Shigeru become this strong?!" The samurai was shocked to see Scyther defeated.

Samurai knew that Shigeru was stronger than before, but he hadn't expected him to be this much stronger. This Scyther was no weakling among Takeo's Pokémon.

"How many badges do you have?" Takeo suddenly asked.

Although somewhat surprised, Xiao Mao answered truthfully, "7!"

Takeo felt a wave of embarrassment. His dojo challenge authority required challengers to have two badges, but this Shigeru had seven badges. No wonder he was so strong.

Participating in the Indigo League only requires 8 badges, making his own gym his last goal.

Logically, with so many badges, one should challenge stronger gyms. However, many trainers, knowing their own limitations, deliberately choose weak gyms to challenge in order to collect all eight badges and participate in the Indigo League.

"No wonder it's so strong, then it will be my last Pokémon... Go, Kairos!"

Takeo sent out his last spirit.

Baton!

"Kairo!"

【LV35 Kairoos♂/Gym】

It must be said that Takeo is quite strong, stronger than any of the Gym Leaders that Gary has challenged, and the three Pokémon he sent out were also very powerful.

Unfortunately... it's helpless against fire-type Pokémon.

"Flame-breathing!" Shigeru continued to command.

Arcanine breathed fire at Pinsir, but Pinsir didn't dodge and instead dug a hole underground.

They can even dig holes!

Xiao Mao was startled. This Dig skill is a Ground-type Pokémon, and Pinsir is born with this skill. Moreover, Arcanine doesn't have any way to deal with Dig, so it's really not easy to deal with.

"Arcanine, envelop yourself in flames."

Upon hearing the sound, Arcanine burst into flames, covering its entire body.

Boom! !

The ground beneath Arcanine shattered, and Pinsir burst forth, its massive horns attempting to trap Arcanine. However, faced with the flames emanating from Pinsir, Pinsir could only manage to send Arcanine flying.

Arcanine, which had been thrown off balance, immediately got up and breathed fire at Pinsir, but Pinsir burrowed underground again to avoid the flames.

Xiao Shi's tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed, and he immediately commanded, "Growlithe, use Agility to run around the field."

As Gary instructed, Arcanine immediately began running at high speed around the arena. Pinsir, who was lurking on the ground, was also stunned. Although he could feel the vibrations on the ground, Arcanine was running too fast for Pinsir to catch up with.

"Keiros, stay underground and don't chase. Let Growlithe run away," Takeo ordered.

Upon hearing Takeo's command, Shigeru was overjoyed. After Arcanine quickly ran to the closest distance to the cave entrance, he immediately shouted, "Now! Use Flamethrower at the cave entrance with maximum power!"

The running Arcanine suddenly turned and sprinted to the cave entrance, unleashing a surge of fiery energy from its body.

"Oh no, Keiros, come out from underground quickly!" Takeo exclaimed in panic.

Boom! !

A section of the ground cracked open, and Keiros's large horns emerged first. However, just as Keiros's head popped out, a pillar of fire shot into the sky, engulfing Keiros within it.

"What! Why is the flame so powerful?" Wu Xiong asked in confusion.

Keros had also dug a tunnel underground, so the flames shouldn't be chasing him that fast.

Normally, Flame Chase isn't that fast, but Arcanine is different. When Arcanine runs, the flame energy inside its body circulates, generating more flame energy. When it uses Flamethrower at this time, because there is so much energy in its body, the flame it spews out will be more powerful.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Gary is just having Arcanine run around the track; it's actually accumulating energy. People who don't know Arcanine wouldn't realize this.

Arcanine released all its fire energy before stopping, and the pillar of fire that had emerged from the cave entrance dissipated.

Bang! !

The charred Keros crashed to the ground, its eyes darting around. All three Pokémon had been defeated.

"Master...!" The samurai was somewhat unable to accept it. He had originally wanted to see Xiao Mao make a fool of himself, but he never expected that his master would be defeated by Xiao Mao in a row.

"Growlithe, well done!" Gary encouraged.

"Wang!"

Arcanine looked smug. "Three bugs are nothing. There's no need for Eagle to help. I can take them down with just one Arcanine."

The battle is over.

Takeo approached Ash and took out the Gym Badge.

"This is the light green badge, it's yours now."

"Thank you."

Xiao Mao politely accepted the badge.

[Ding! Mission complete. Rewards have been sent to your inventory.]

With the light green badge, Shigeru has collected all 8 badges, qualifying him to participate in the Quartz Conference.

【叮！任务发布：参加石英大会并获得冠军/奖励：低级神奇糖果X10、中级神奇糖果X10、高级神奇糖果X10、铜色王冠X1、银色王冠X1、金色王冠X1】

The system suddenly issued a task, which stunned Xiao Mao.

Winning the Quartz Conference means receiving so many rewards, so we absolutely have to take the championship!

Gary and Sabrina also left River City Gym and returned to the Pokémon Center to rest. The two will leave River City tomorrow.

Chapter 88: Big Fool Valley

"Grey, you've collected all eight badges. Are you still planning to continue your journey?" Sabrina asked on the way back to the Pokémon Center.

"I plan to continue traveling for a while, and if I come across a dojo, I'll give it a try," said Shigeru.

"it is good."

After listening, Naz nodded slightly, and it was clear that she was in a much better mood.

If Shigeru ends his trip, Sabrina won't have a good excuse to stay by his side. She can insist on staying, but as a girl, Sabrina is too embarrassed to ask.

Now that Shigeru says he wants to continue his trip, Sabrina doesn't need to say anything; she can just go with him.

"So where do you plan to go next?" Naz asked.

"Let's go check out Big Fool Valley. I heard they can dig up ancient elf fossils there," Xiao Mao said.

"The Great Fool Valley...ancient elf fossils." This was the first time Sabrina had ever heard of the Great Fool Valley.

"Yeah, since we have nothing else to do, let's go take a look."

"it is good."

I don't mind taking it, as long as I can go out and play with Xiao Mao.

...!

Day two.

Xiao Mao and Natsumi left Zhenhe City and headed to Da Sha Valley.

After a week-long journey, Xiao Mao and Na Zi finally arrived at Da Sha Valley. As soon as they arrived, they saw many treasure hunters, all hoping to find fossils in Da Sha Valley and become rich overnight.

In recent years, many elf doctors have proposed resurrecting ancient elves, leading many companies to begin research, and ancient elf fossils have become an important tool for this research project.

This has led to a surge in the price of fossils. Now, as long as you can find a complete ancient Pokémon fossil, you can basically live a comfortable life as long as you don't become a trainer.

Shigeru and Sabrina had come to Big Fool Valley to search for ancient elf fossils, so they naturally joined the excavation team.

The two bought pickaxes and headed to Big Fool Valley in broad daylight.

Along the way, they encountered many other people who were also digging for fossils. Xiao Shi kept observing the people around him and, based on the time, figured that Xiao Zhi and his friends would be arriving soon.

After all, Gary had already inquired and found out that there had been no collapses near Big Fool Valley, so Ash and the others definitely hadn't arrived yet.

"Xiao Mao, look over there." Just as Xiao Mao was observing the people in the group, Na Zi suddenly reminded him, pointing in a direction in the distance.

There was a three-way intersection, and three people were about to walk to the middle of the intersection. Those three people were Xiao Zhi and his friends.

coming!
