Chapter 53: You Might Not Believe It, But It Was Pure Coincidence
Whether it was the referee’s or Zuo Hang’s attitude, it all made Jiang Yuan’s Trainer very unhappy, but a loss was a loss. This wasn’t a level-up battle. Gible didn’t lose to the Electric Mouse, but to the Fletchling who was far inferior to him just two days ago.
Recalled Gible.
Jiang Yuan’s Trainer’s face couldn’t hold up.
Losing to the Electric Mouse, he could curse the opponent for bullying the weak with strength, but losing to Fletchling, he really didn’t know what to curse.
It felt even worse than losing to Bronze in a King solo queue, and his facial expression became gloomy and uncertain.
As an academy faction of Jiang Yuan, yet losing to the “wild road” from Channel 10, this was absolutely a disgrace to the Nine Great High Schools!
“You wait! Next time I’ll definitely win you!” Jiang Yuan’s Trainer pointed at Zuo Hang and said through gritted teeth.
Zuo Hang said: “Isn’t there still an Electric-type? Let it out to play? And you won’t have a next time. I won’t come for the next match.”
Jiang Yuan’s Trainer already had no intention to continue fighting, but with Zuo Hang saying that, the anger in his heart flared up again.
“Good! You said it yourself! Don’t regret it!”
Took out a Poké Ball from behind his waist, and an upright Pokémon with yellow skin appeared from the red light.
—Abdomen snow-white, flat hands on both sides, a red gem-like sphere on the forehead, ears that looked like dragon horns from the outside standing diagonally behind the red gem, black ring-shaped stripes on the neck, tail tip, and ear tips.
This was a Dragonite.
“Electromagnetic Cannon!”
As soon as Jiang Yuan’s Trainer gave the command, the restless electric arcs in the air immediately gathered toward the red sphere on Dragonite’s forehead, and the overflowing electric light cracked the ground around Dragonite’s body.
Jiang Yuan’s Trainer pointed forward with his finger.
Electric Energy surged, light cannon fired!
The powerful recoil of the Electromagnetic Cannon made Dragonite step back.
The spherical light cannon tore through the air, with some lightning chains spreading on the outside of the light cannon. It didn’t fly close to the ground, but the overflowing lightning energy shattered all the ground along the path of the Electromagnetic Cannon!
Zuo Hang didn’t touch the Poké Ball.
Pikachu jumped onto the arena, tail swung, and rubbed a small Thunder Shock.
One big and one small, it looked like the Electromagnetic Cannon could completely cover the Thunder Shock, but when the two intersected, a bizarre scene occurred.
The Electromagnetic Cannon, which should have shot toward Zuo Hang, suddenly grew larger upon touching the Thunder Shock, then rapidly turned and shot toward Jiang Yuan’s Trainer’s direction.
The Electromagnetic Cannon lost Dragonite’s control the moment it was released.
And Pikachu was barely a pretty awesome Electric attribute controller; this kind of “ownerless lightning” easily became his.
My Thunder Shock is mine, and your Electromagnetic Cannon is still mine.
Pikachu turned back and jumped back to Zuo Hang’s side in a few steps.
Behind came the sound of “boom~zz~boom~zz~” from Electric Energy explosions.
Thought there really was a Pokémon that had mastered Form Change.
Didn’t expect it to be just one Electromagnetic Cannon move.
Pikachu sighed.
Is this the feeling of being invincible?
Zuo Hang also directly turned and walked away.
The electric light explosion was a bit blinding.
Pikachu didn’t do anything else, just threw back an Electromagnetic Cannon. That Dragonite should be fine, but it was unknown what that Jiang Yuan’s Trainer would think.
Back to the lounge, Xingye immediately came up to greet him.
“Fletchling! Forever a god! Awesome, Hangzi Ge. Jiang Yuan’s guy is probably dumbfounded. But you didn’t wear the mask, so you might need to be careful outside the school from now on.”
“Be careful? Alright, I’ll try. Let’s go back first.” Zuo Hang said.
“That… Fletchling’s earlier Flame move.”
Xingye rubbed his hands, his gaze a bit strange.
Zuo Hang spread his hands helplessly and said: “I really don’t know. If you want to practice, you can try letting Snowy Child feel Moonlight. I remember that kid seems to know Ice Blade? Though not strong, but it comprehended Form Change early, so it should have some talent in Special Attack. Maybe it can even enchant Ice Shard with Moonblast.”
“No, that’s not what I meant.” Xingye said: “White Dragon High can apply for fan-made skill certification. Don’t you want to do one? Sold skills have contribution points split.”
“Certification?” Zuo Hang said lightly in surprise.
He remembered that to apply for fan-made skills, the trainer level had to be at least Advanced.
And he was just an entry-level now, hadn’t played the ranking match for upgrading yet.
Fletchling’s skill gave him some ideas; applying for fan-made should be possible.
If there were no trainer level restrictions, with so many fan-made for Electric Mouse, Zuo Hang would have applied for fan-made and made a fortune long ago.
Hearing Xingye’s tone.
White Dragon High’s internal fan-made skill application might take another route, skipping the trainer certification path.
“Then let’s go.” Zuo Hang said.
Since Xingye said it, there should be a way; coming from a big family, he might be able to pull some strings.
One hour later.
Third floor of the Pokémon Center inside White Dragon High School.
The front desk guy’s uniform was neatly arranged without a single wrinkle, and his face showed an impeccable smile.
“Hello, for skill application, you need Advanced or above trainer certification.”
Zuo Hang glanced at Xingye, Electric Mouse glanced at Snowy Child.
“You do it?” Zuo Hang asked tentatively.
“Go ahead.” Xingye said.
“Hello, please show your Black Terminal. If the relevant identification is not bound to the terminal, you can show the identification directly.” The front desk guy still had a poker-like smile.
“Go on, Hangzi Ge, identification.”
“What? Aren’t you doing it? I’m just entry-level.”
“Huh? You don’t have it? I thought you did.”
“What the hell? You don’t have it either?”
Xingye: “.”
Zuo Hang: “.”
Those two pretty boys seemed like the kind of dumbasses who even needed to ask the senior student where the underground arena was. Whether Zuo Hang or Xingye, it seemed they both overestimated each other a bit.
The atmosphere became subtly awkward.
The front desk guy suddenly spoke up, “If you don’t have Advanced trainer certification, Advanced Breeder, Advanced Performer, Advanced Investigator, B-level Gym certification… these identifications work too.”
“Damn, you should have said so earlier.” Both said at the same time, and both reached into their pants pockets at the same time.
Xingye slapped a blue snowflake-shaped badge on the table.
Zuo Hang slapped a black-covered small booklet on the table.
“Check this, Frost Gym Leader Hoshino Ryuji.”
“Check this, Special Agent 3-star Investigator Zuo Hang.”
Xingye: “？？？”
Zuo Hang: “？？？”
The two stared wide-eyed, both seeing shock in each other’s eyes.
“What Gym? Frost isn’t S-level?”
“Special Agent how many stars? So I’ve had an Investigator by my side all this time?”
Zuo Hang said: “To tell the truth, it’s pure coincidence. I didn’t want to do it either.”
Xingye said: “Me too, coincidence. This Gym is my third grandpa’s, but he got caught last month for stealing props.”
The front desk guy took their identifications.
He was very professional and trained; no matter how funny the skill applicants were, he wouldn’t laugh out loud, only smile.
“Alright, certification complete. You two can apply for skills now.”
