Chapter 16 Battle against the Black Gold Gym

The next morning.

The young man in a blue sportswear slowly walked to the door of the Black Gold Gym. The sun shone on the ground, illuminating the young man's resolute profile.

"Hello, this is the Black Gold Gym. Are you the trainer here to challenge?" Seeing Lin Jing standing at the door, the staff of the Black Gold Gym asked.

"Yes."

"Okay, please come with me to register."

"Then please give me your trainer ID or illustrated book first." The staff at the registration office asked Lin Jing.

He took Lin Jing's illustrated book and inserted it into the computer's scanning slot. Lin Jing's information was displayed on the computer.

[Name: Lin Jing]

【Sex: Male】

[Age: 15 years old]

[Hometown: Zhensha Town, Sinnoh Region]

[Illustrated issuer: Dr. Yamanashi]

[Trainer registration date: April 243, Alliance Calendar 4]

[Trainer Level: Newcomer Level]

[Number of Sinnoh region badges: 0]

[Honors received: The alliance won the Ribbon Medal of the Zhuqing City Gorgeous Competition on x, month, x, year xxx]

Ps: When registering for the celebration meeting, Lin Jing found that her research honors were actually written on her information, so she asked the alliance for help and blocked this item so that no one with insufficient authority would be able to see it.

. . .

"Okay, Mr. Lin Jing from Zhensha Town, your information has been registered for you. Please wait in the rest area." He tapped the keyboard lightly on the battle area on the computer to mark Lin Jing's information as a newbie without a badge. The staff behind the trainer level smiled.

Yes, in fact, most gym battles in various places are based on the historical battle records of the battle trainers.

They will all use Pokémon of different levels or other agent gym masters, trainers, and gym apprentices to fight. If there is no level of 4 or more badges, the real gym leader will not take action most of the time.

Otherwise, we will face non-stop battles every day, and most of them are abusive games, which will not only delay the owner's time.

Even if the gym owner releases the training, it can easily destroy the confidence of new trainers. Of course, even if the gym owner is less than 4 badges or above, if the gym owner is interested in this trainer, he can still fight with him.

In addition to their duties as gym leaders, most of the time, gym leaders will also make certain modifications to the gym based on their own interests, giving the gym a more independent character.

The gym funds provided by the alliance are used for the operation of the gym itself. Although the rewards given to gym leaders are good, the reward resources provided by the trainer alliance at the gym leader level are still slightly insufficient.

After all, the resources required for the main Pokémon they cultivated to reach the leader level and above are too large and rare. Joining the alliance as a gym leader is not for the reward, but because as an official of the alliance, you can exchange a lot of market resources. A rare Pokémon resource that is very rare in the world.

Therefore, instead of being their primary job, the Taoist Gym Leader should be their deputy job.

This is also the reason why most of the museum owners, in addition to being the museum owners themselves, also have careers such as journalists, opening perfume shops, and opening hot spring hotels. That is their real hobby. There are even gym owners who often run out and leave the gym alone just because of their interest.

The Alliance also understands this. After all, abusing food once or twice is not a waste of the owner's time, and it will easily make them resentful. Therefore, the rule that requires a certain badge and requires the guard to take action came into being. .

However, even if the gym leaders take action, except for the fact that the newcomers of the inherited gymnasium who replace the original old gym leaders will have slightly lower strength, the veteran gym owners or the gym owners who founded the gym based on their strength will be free to fight.

Although challengers will gradually increase their strength with the number of badges they obtain, most of the gym leaders did not use their full strength even in the challenge-level battle with the 8th gym badge that allowed them to participate in the regional competition.

Of course, these things are unknown to other trainers who are not gym leaders or above or have corresponding identities┓( ′?` )┏

Less than a month after setting off for the trip, although he received a ribbon medal from the Gorgeous Competition, the non-pure combat-type badges from the Gorgeous Competition were not counted in the combat strength assessment standards at the official gym level.

Naturally, the level evaluation of Lin Jing in the gym is 0 Badge Newcomer level. It means that he directly let a gym apprentice or let the agent gym leader let the sea fight~

Of course, Lin Jing, who has a doctorate, naturally knows this kind of thing.

---------------

after an hour

"Lin Jing from Zhensha Town, who is it your turn to compete in the Gym Battle?" the staff member walked to the rest area and asked.

"Okay." Lin Jing slowly stood up and walked out.

"Are you Lin Jing? Please come with me." The staff member looked up and down and said with surprise and strange eyes.

. . .

Following the steps of the staff, I walked towards the battlefield. What I saw in front of me was a rocky battlefield with some rocks.

The Black Gold Gym is a gym that specializes in using rock-type spirits. The venue is naturally a mountain battle venue that is more favorable for rock-types.

Seeing that the person on the other side hadn't arrived yet, Lin Jing waited while thinking about several tactics she had prepared before.

After a while, a person slowly walked over from the opposite passage.

I saw that he was wearing a pair of glasses, light gray work clothes, white work gloves, thick boots on his feet, and a safety helmet on his head. You can still see the red raised buttons underneath the hat. His hair looks like a miner's.

If you don't know, you might think it's a miner or a battlefield maintainer.

But when Lin Jing saw the man dressed as a miner walking over, a surprised expression appeared on his face, obviously recognizing the other person's identity. Just as he was about to speak, the other party said it first.

"I'm so sorry. I was mining before and kept you waiting for Dr. Lin Jing." The man who looked like a miner said.

"No, it's nothing, but I was even more surprised. I didn't expect that a new trainer challenger without a badge would let Mr. Hyota, the guardian of the Black Gold Gym, personally take action." Lin Jing said in surprise.

That's right, the man dressed as a miner in front of Lin Jing is the Black Gold Gym leader, Hyota, who is good at using rock-type Pokémon, and his partner's main Pokémon is Cephalosaurus (which is naturally used when releasing into the sea). , some of the elves used can only be encountered by trainers with at least 6 badges or above. Those of that level will not be openly battled unless both parties request and agree.)

"As the youngest doctor in the alliance who has discovered a new attribute of fairies, I have long admired your name!"

"After all, this is no less of a shock to trainers than the news of the appearance of a mythical beast. When you first came to the gym to register, my gym owner received a reminder backstage."

"As a newly discovered doctor of fairy attributes, I naturally have a deep understanding of the fairy system. As a trainer, fighting against new attributes is such an exciting thing that I naturally want to try it."

"After all, the Fairy type has just been announced, and not many people have used it yet. Of course, the few people who have used it don't have as deep a knowledge of the Fairy type as you, the discoverer, so I really want to take a look at my rock-type Pokémon. Yume’s battle with the new Fairy-type Pokémon!” Hyota said excitedly.

"Is that so?"

"No wonder my level has alerted the guarding hall master to come here. Then, master Hyotai, come and fight!"

Facing the owner, Lin Jing became excited.

I originally thought I was just going to fight against the acting gym leader or apprentice.

Although it will be more difficult to fight against the owner.

However, the more intense battle was due to one-sided familiarity with Hyota in her previous life, which also made Lin Jing look forward to the next battle even more.

After all, even though the gym owner did it himself, I am not a normal newbie trainer. You have to know that I have been training for a year, and my knowledge of Pokémon battles is far from the same level as a normal trainer.

Leave Dorothy to the thief! (Let’s fight!)
