Chapter 636 Returning to Miare City, Challenging the Strongest Onion Soldier!
The dust and grime of several days' journey were finally washed away upon returning to the bustling city of Miare.
The air is filled with the rich aroma of coffee and the fragrance of desserts; this heart city of the Carlos region seems to be forever full of vitality.
After recovering and resting at the Pokémon Center, the team naturally split into two groups.
Ash is going to accompany Serena to challenge the Luna Gym, while Clemont and Bonnie have already returned to the gym to wait for the challenge.
Meanwhile, Xiaoyun and Xiaoguang decided to enjoy this rare moment of leisure, planning to stay in Miare City for a while, go shopping, and have some nice meals.
Miare is, after all, the most bustling city in the Carlos region. In addition to the landmark Prism Tower, it also has four main avenues for spring, summer, autumn and winter, as well as the south-facing street surrounding the south side.
They had previously visited Spring Avenue and the South Side Street, and this time they planned to visit Summer and Autumn Avenue together.
With their plans finalized, the two decided to take a taxi there.
The taxi system in Miare continues its tradition of "friendly interaction".
Therefore, upon arrival, Xiaoyun refused to pay the exorbitant taxi fare and, with practiced ease, challenged the driver to a duel.
Two minutes later...
boom!
With Eevee landing a powerful Iron Tail attack, the battle ended instantly!
We won the game, so the meal is free!
As the taxi driver's grumbling faded into the distance, the two officially began their happy day.
Summer Avenue, as its name suggests, is filled with a passionate and fiery atmosphere.
The shops lining both sides of the street are brightly colored and play upbeat Carlos pop music.
Hey! Just like the sunrise that illuminated Carlos!
Come on! Let's move forward! Be ready at any time!
Synchronized and overlapping moods
Because it will become a bond that will never disappear.
Become stronger until the very end.
As long as it's us, oh yeah!
Ikusai!
Listening to the upbeat theme song, the two first arrived at the famous lottery center.
The life motto of today's young people is that whenever they pass by a lottery shop, they must first buy a scratch-off lottery ticket.
You're saying, what if we win?
"Maybe today is my lucky day!"
Xiao Guang clasped his hands together, his eyes sparkling as he stared at the huge lottery wheel.
Xiaoyun stood beside her, hands in her pockets, looking calm: "You keep it up. With my bad luck, I'd better just stay quiet and be part of the atmosphere."
He's not even qualified to participate in a lottery!
Xiaoyun is quite self-aware.
"Come on, Lady Luck, it's time to show your true strength!"
The turntable slowly slowed down under the expectant gazes of the two, finally stopping on the smallest square.
Thank you for your patronage.
"Ugh...what?! It was so close!"
Xiao Guang pouted in dissatisfaction, his cheeks puffed out like a hamster's, looking extremely cute.
Seeing this, Xiaoyun silently bought a double-scoop ice cream from a nearby vendor, handed it to her, and said softly:
"I may not win the prize, but I can't miss out on the food. Try this; they say this ice cream is the best in Miare."
The one thing in life you should never miss is good food.
Xiao Guang looked at the ice cream handed to him, and his slight disappointment immediately vanished. He took the ice cream and took a sweet bite.
"Yeah! Delicious!"
She squinted her eyes contentedly, the cool and sweet sensation instantly healing her.
“Try it too!”
Xiaoyun naturally opened her mouth and ate it.
Yes, this is a gift from Xiaoguang.
After leaving the raffle center, they went into a unique swivel café.
This café is famous for its unique rollerblading service, where servers, wearing professional roller skates, weave and spin among the crowded tables like ice dancers.
And with a steady hand, she perfectly and accurately delivered drinks and snacks to each customer.
The entire process was smooth and fluid, full of dynamism and beauty.
Wow! That's amazing, it's like a performance!
Xiao Guang couldn't help but gasp softly, his eyes fixed on a waiter who had just completed a beautiful gliding turn.
Xiaoyun nodded in agreement: "If Kerni knew about this place, she'd probably become a regular member."
Xiao Guang chuckled: "Given Korni's personality, she might as well work here."
"Korni: Wow! Is this paradise? Wuhu, take off!"
The two sat down by the window and ordered a Carlos-colored tricolor honey juice and a coconut latte.
Outside the window is a bustling summer street scene, while inside is a cool and comfortable little world.
Xiao Guang would occasionally stir his colorful juice gently with a straw, then suddenly launch a sneak attack, quickly turning the straw towards Xiao Yun's coffee cup as if to drink from it, but Xiao Yun would always stop him with lightning speed.
"Stop fooling around, what if the flavors mix?"
Xiaoyun smiled helplessly.
After a few times, Xiao Guang couldn't help but let out a silvery laugh.
Xiaoyun looked at her and smiled, her eyes full of doting affection.
This kind of life is actually quite good.
The years are quiet, but so.
In the afternoon, they hopped into the taxi they had gotten for free after their "friendly exchange" and arrived at Autumn Avenue, where the scenery had suddenly changed.
The pace of life here has slowed down considerably, with rows of ginkgo and maple trees planted on both sides of the street, creating a tranquil and elegant atmosphere.
Their target was the well-known "Second-Rate Restaurant" on Autumn Boulevard.
The name "Erliu" does not refer to quality, but rather to its unique business philosophy.
As the saying goes, first-class food at second-class prices.
This is a battle restaurant, and the rules are simple and straightforward.
Win a game and get a 50% discount; win three games in a row and get a free meal.
But if you lose... congratulations, you're in for double the bill!
"It sounds interesting that you can enjoy delicious food and play battles at the same time, killing two birds with one stone."
Xiao Guang found it quite interesting. Having gotten used to going to regular restaurants, it was quite refreshing to occasionally visit a battle restaurant.
"It's a great place to test your skills. I guess the owner of this shop is also a gaming enthusiast."
Xiaoyun thought to herself that the shop owner was quite good at business, since trainers made up a small percentage of the business and the main customers were ordinary people.
The restaurant attracted customers, the trainers had a great time battling, and the ordinary customers enjoyed watching.
In this situation, even if a highly skilled trainer gets a free ticket, it won't have much of an impact.
You might make a small profit, but I'll never lose money.
This boss is in the atmosphere!
Just as the two arrived at the restaurant entrance, before they even got close, they saw a fierce battle in full swing.
The two sides in the battle are Dorimia, a poodle with meticulously groomed fur, and her trainer, a stylish young man with a slightly nervous expression.
On the other side, however, something caught Xiaoyun's eye.
It was a Pokémon that stood upright like a pine tree and had a solemn expression like a true knight.
It gripped a thick, sturdy, oily scallion tightly in one hand as a spear.
He held a large and sturdy scallion leaf as a shield in his other hand, exuding a calm and composed demeanor as if he had been through countless battles.
"What kind of Pokémon is this?"
Xiao Guang didn't recognize this Pokémon, but inexplicably felt that it was full of righteousness.
"Drip."
Wherever there is doubt, there is Master Luo.
"Fertile Serissa jab, the Warrior Pokémon"
Attribute: Fighting
"Introduction: From the Galar region, the evolved form of Farfetch'd, whose life motto is to fight honorably."
"Carry a green onion and you're good to go anywhere. Low cost, high combat power. It can be used for meteor attacks or as a simple dish of green onion with sauce. It's the new generation's king of cost-effectiveness in Pokémon."
"The Garudas from the Galar region are very rare in the Carlos region!"
Xiaoyun never expected that the shop owner would have such a Pokémon.
"Is that scallion really edible? *slurp*"
Xiao Guang stared intently at the scallion spear in Cong Youbing's hand, tears streaming uncontrollably from the corner of his mouth.
Such a sharp gun can be dipped in sauce; I wonder what it tastes like.
"Wake up, Hikari! That's Farfetch's life!"
Xiaoyun couldn't help but facepalm; she hadn't expected Xiaoguang to be such a glutton.
Besides, he really didn't want to see the delicate Xiaoguang hugging and eating a green onion, you bastard!
The battle continues.
The young man was giving slightly anxious instructions: "Dorimia, get your spirits up and use Ram!"
Despite Dorimia's fierce charge, Onion Soldier remained completely calm.
"Gah!"
With a nimble glide, he perfectly avoided a head-on collision.
At the same time, the signature scallion spear in his hand thrust out like a venomous snake emerging from its hole!
Split tiles!
boom!
With a muffled thud, the scallion spear struck Dorimia's vulnerable side abdomen with pinpoint accuracy.
Dorimia's momentum came to an abrupt halt, and after struggling for a moment, she lost her ability to fight.
"Such a clean and decisive counterattack, the timing and angle were perfect."
Xiaoyun couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "This Onion Soldier has extremely high combat skills."
The young man reluctantly took back Dorimia, then walked over to the restaurant owner, paid for his meal after losing the battle, and left with a dejected air.
The scallion soldier with thick eyebrows and big eyes slammed a fragrant scallion into the ground, exuding an aura of power.
also!Have!Who!
Then the two realized, wait a minute, there's no trainer behind this duck?!
"What's going on? This Farfetch'd doesn't seem to have a trainer in command."
Xiao Guang asked in a low voice, puzzled.
Xiao Yun also looked puzzled. He turned to a passerby who was watching with great interest and asked, "Excuse me, what is this Onion Soldier...?"
The passerby was clearly happy to share gossip and immediately explained:
"You mean it? It's the famous street rider around here!"
"There's no trainer involved, and we don't know where they came from. They especially like to challenge trainers to battles, and their strength is ridiculously high."
"The restaurant owner was kind-hearted. He saw that it seemed to be hungry often, so he gave it some food."
"It probably felt that it could both repay a debt of gratitude and find opponents to fight often, so it voluntarily stayed to help the boss keep order."
"An ownerless Pokémon? Voluntarily staying to serve as a fighter?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun's interest was piqued. He carefully examined the onion soldiers in the arena.
It is said that Farfetch'd in its Galar form can only evolve if it is hit in a critical hit three times in battle.
And it hit vital points three times...
This also means that anything that can evolve in the wild must be a veteran of countless battles!
The middle-aged man continued, "Hey, you know what? Ever since we got it, the restaurant's business has been booming. A lot of trainers have fallen victim to it."
"Now everyone calls it the 'freebie terminator'!"
"Huh, there are Pokémon like that?"
Xiao Guang was slightly surprised. This duck that brought its own ingredients seemed to be a master chef.
Xiaoyun looked at Cong Youbing with eyes full of respect.
Earning a living through one's own skills—is this what they call a male prostitute?
Working ducks, working souls, all working ducks are people on top of people.
After a while, seeing that no one was willing to fight, Cong Youbing withdrew from his stance, propped his Cong Spear on the ground, and breathed slightly.
The continuous battles were quite taxing, even for it.
At this moment, under the watchful eyes of countless people around her, Xiaoyun steadily walked forward.
The Onion Soldier, who had just finished fighting, immediately noticed the newly approaching human and swept his sharp gaze over with a scrutinizing look.
Are they humans coming to challenge us again...?
Unlike the other challengers, Xiaoyun did not immediately issue a challenge. Instead, she stopped and took out a homemade snack from her backpack.
Ta-da! (Please imagine Doraemon sound effects)
Premium Energy Cubes!
He tossed it gently, and the energy cube landed steadily in front of Cong Youbing's feet.
"You've worked hard, take a break and recover your strength. I hope the next match will be a fair contest where both of us are in our best condition."
Xiaoyun spoke calmly, with genuine respect.
Simply put, he's taken a liking to this duck.
Onion Soldier was clearly stunned. It looked down at the energy cube at its feet that was emitting an alluring aura, and a hint of excitement flashed in its eyes.
Having wandered for so long, it has seen creatures that wanted to be tamed, and creatures that wanted free meals from restaurants.
I've never seen anyone feed someone first and then challenge them to a fight!
It hesitated for a moment, but finally picked up the energy cube.
Chicken flavor, crunchy!
Fight hunger and be yourself!
Soon, a warm current flowed through my body, and all my fatigue vanished.
The wariness in his gaze towards Xiaoyun had faded considerably, replaced by a sense of approval.
This man is someone I can get along with.
"It seems you've recovered quite well. So, are you willing to accept my challenge?"
Xiaoyun smiled with satisfaction.
"Gah!"
Onion Soldier gripped his onion spear tightly again, his gaze fixed intently on Xiaoyun.
It's ready!
Xiaoyun smiled slightly, knowing that her kindness had been appreciated.
He took a few steps back and moved to his fighting position.
Xiao Guang reminded her from the side, "Xiao Yun, be careful."
This duck has an inexplicably imposing presence.
"OK."
Xiaoyun nodded, her eyes becoming focused.
"I choose you, Froghead!"
A flash of light, and the frog head frog makes its appearance.
It crouched down, its hands hanging naturally at its sides, its eyes calmly fixed on the Onion Soldier.
"Holy crap... a shiny froghead frog!"
The onlookers were in an uproar.
Shiny Pokémon are rare to begin with, let alone a Shiny starter Pokémon like Froakie. This time, we've run into a whale (someone who spends a lot of money on the game).
Needless to say, the upcoming battle will be spectacular.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
"The challenger goes first!"
The restaurant owner, acting as referee, announced loudly, clearly also looking forward to the match.
