That's right, the Pokémon that Gary sent out was Blastoise, his starter Pokémon and also his ace Pokémon.
Clearly, the elves sent out by both sides were compared.
What exactly is a "cat leader"?
"This Blastoise..." Huangbo was secretly shocked. Although she couldn't see the Pokémon's level, as a battle class teacher, she could tell that Blastoise was extraordinary. Its aura was in no way inferior to that of Mudan's Meowth.
"Teacher Huang, we can begin now," Peony urged.
Huang Bo was also a bit of a headache. She originally thought that Mudan was a sure winner, but now that she saw Xiao Mao's Blastoise, she was a little worried. But since things had come to this point, she definitely couldn't collect it if she didn't finish the fight.
"Alright, let the battle begin."
The words fell.
"Meow Boss, use Iron Head!" Peony didn't even need to get up; she took the initiative to attack.
"Meow!"
The cat-like leader, like a Viking pirate, swung its sharp claws and attacked.
2.9 “Your Meowth looks alright, but it’s still a long way from the top of the world. Let me show you the strength of a future world champion.” Gary sighed and commanded, “Blastoise, use Aura Sphere.”
"Kami!"
Bang!Bang!
Blastoise fired two wave missiles from its cannon. The wave missiles were extremely fast and approached Meowth in the blink of an eye.
"Meow!"
This cat leader was quite knowledgeable and knew what kind of skill the Wave Missile was. Without hesitation, it swung its steel claws to counter the Wave Missile.
Boom! !
However, the steel claw did not break the wave missile. After touching the wave missile, the wave missile broke through the steel energy on the steel claw and exploded.
boom! !
The cat leader was blasted away, falling from the sky and crashing to the ground, its eyes spinning.
545: Chairman Yeci
"What! No...this is impossible..."
Seeing Meowth unable to rise again, Peony's pupils widened. Meowth was her father's Pokémon, yet it was defeated in a single move. Could it be that Ash in front of her really had the strength to rival the champion?
"No! That's not right, this Blastoise definitely isn't his Pokémon." Only by thinking this way could Peony accept her defeat.
"Who exactly are you?" Peony asked.
"As I just said, my name is Shigeru Oak, and I'm a trainer from the Kanto region. I'm here to visit the school."
After Xiao Mao finished speaking, he looked at Huang Bo and asked, "Um... Teacher Huang, I won, can I leave now?"
“No, let’s have a match too,” Huang Bo said.
What!
They said you could leave if you won, so why did the older one show up after the younger one was beaten?
"Let's just forget about it, teacher. You're probably no match for me. Let's avoid embarrassing ourselves in front of your students," Xiao Mao advised.
"What did you say!"
Huang Bo was furious. How could she, a renowned teacher from Orange Academy, possibly lose to a mere teenager?
Xiao Shi knew that Huang Bo was a trainer specializing in Fighting-type Pokémon. He was quite strong, but only at the Gym level. He wasn't at the Elite Four level, and at most he had a few Pokémon that were close to Elite Four level.
Although these are all just Xiao Shi's own guesses, it is certain that the Houbo in the anime is not powerful, and is not even as strong as Gurusha.
"Don't be angry, I'm just telling the truth. I'll go all out against you. If your strength isn't at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings, you'd better not fight me," Xiao Shigeru warned.
"You...you mean you think your strength is comparable to the Four Heavenly Kings?" Huang Bo asked, her brows furrowed.
"This kid is a real braggart."
"Thinking that having a slightly stronger Blastoise makes it think it can compete with the Elite Four."
"It is true that the ignorant are fearless."
The students present all thought that Xiao Mao was bragging, after all, one of the teachers in Orange Academy was one of the Four Heavenly Kings, namely the art teacher, Hachisaku, who was a Dragon-type Heavenly King.
"Excuse me, what happened here?" Just then, a gentle voice came from behind.
Everyone present looked towards the door and saw a middle-aged woman with long hair and wheat-colored skin, dressed in a professional women's suit.
"Ah, Chairman!"
Upon seeing the woman, Huang Bo exclaimed in surprise.
The other party was Ye Ci, the chairman of the board of directors of Orange Academy.
Xiao Mao was also very surprised, never expecting to meet Ye Ci.
This Ci is not just the chairman of the academy, but also the president of the Padiya League and the champion of the Padiya League himself.
"Huang Bo, what happened here?" Ye Ci asked.
Ye Ci was just passing by when she saw students having class, so she came over to see what was going on. As soon as she arrived, she saw Xiao Mao arguing with Huang Bo, so she asked what was going on.
"Chairman, um..."
Huang Bo was in a real bind. After all, the matter between her and Xiao Mao was a misunderstanding. Although Xiao Mao was partly responsible, she was more responsible. If she hadn't mistaken Xiao Mao for a student at the school, the current situation wouldn't have occurred.
"Just tell me what happened, what's going on?" Ye Ci asked again, her tone gentle but undeniably authoritative.
"Chairman, this is what happened..." Huang Bo told Ye Ci everything that had happened.
Xiao Mao listened carefully from the side, lest Huang Bo, the villain, make false accusations first. After listening, he confirmed that this was indeed the case, but the story also emphasized Xiao Mao's arrogant behavior.
After listening, Ye Ci looked at Xiao Mao and apologized, "First of all, I apologize to you on behalf of Huang Bo, but it's obvious that you agreed to the battle on purpose. It's not a good thing to do that."
Hearing Ye Ci say this, Xiao Mao could tell that Ye Ci wanted to get revenge, otherwise she could have simply wiped the slate clean.
“It was my fault, then Chairman, what do you want to do?” Xiao Mao asked.
"How about this, would you like to consider becoming a teacher at the academy?" Ye Ci suggested.
"what!"
"He's going to be a teacher?"
"Why should he? He's not that much older than us, how can he be a teacher?"
Before Xiao Mao could even speak, the surrounding students began to object.
Ye Ci simply smiled at Xiao Mao, not caring about the students' discussions.
"May I ask your surname?" Xiao Mao asked.
“My name is Ye Ci, and I am the chairman of the board of directors of Orange Academy,” Ye Ci replied.
“Ms. Yaji, I have other things to do right now. I need to rush back to the Sinnoh region, so I don’t have time to be a teacher,” Gary said.
Xiao Shi could see what Ye Ci was thinking. She could invite the Elite Four to be her teachers, so she naturally valued the education of her juniors. She wanted to invite any powerful trainer to be her teacher.
"Don't worry, it's not a full-time job. You just need to come to school once a quarter at the turn of the year and stay for a while each time," Ye Ci said.
“But I’ve never been a teacher, so I don’t know how to teach students,” Xiao Mao said.
“I don’t need you to teach anything. You just need to spar with the students at the school. I can pay you a high salary,” Ye Ci said.
“I don’t need the money,” Xiao Mao said.
“That makes sense, after all, your surname is 287 Oki. What’s your relationship with Professor Oak?” Ye Ci asked.
"My grandpa!"
As soon as these words came out.
Huangbo, Mudan, and the other students were all stunned.
They hadn't considered this possibility, but they were quite surprised to hear Gary admit that he was Professor Oak's grandson.
Because Professor Oak has been appearing on television frequently lately, he has become a well-known figure worldwide. If we're talking about the most famous professor, it has to be Professor Oak.
After all, in recent years, Dr. Oak has been somewhat neglecting his duties, mostly publishing academic research with very few of his own research achievements, largely due to his frequent appearances on television.
The most recently released research results are all about Shigeru's energy cube recipe and the stable evolution method of the Abandoned Monkey, and nothing else.
“I never imagined Professor Oak was your grandfather. It seems you are indeed not short of money. What do you need? You can use it as payment.” Ye Ci said.
Judging from Ci's attitude, he is determined to hire Xiao Mao.
Xiao Mao thought it wasn't a bad idea; he only needed to come to Orange Academy four times a year.
"Wait a minute, why do you insist on having me as your sparring partner? Aren't there any more suitable teachers at the school?" Xiao Mao asked.
546: Invited to become a practical instructor
“Because your age is similar to that of the students in the academy, this will stimulate their competitive spirit, making you the most suitable candidate,” Ye Ci said.
"How do we decide on the timing?" Xiao Mao asked.
"The timing is up to you, once per quarter is fine, but you'll need to stay here for at least seven days. During those seven days, you'll be fighting against the students from the school," Ye Ci said.
"No... how many students are there in the school?" Xiao Mao asked.
There are quite a few students at Orange Academy, at least 800 if not 1000.
Even in a 1v1 battle, if Gary wanted to defeat 800 trainers in seven days, he wouldn't be able to finish even if he didn't eat or drink.
"Don't worry, I will only send the best students from the school to fight you, and the number will not exceed 20," Ye Ci said.
Twenty students would be fine, but Xiao Mao still had doubts and asked, "How many against how many is that?"
"Let's do 3v3, that way your Pokémon will have time to rest," Ye Ci said.
Although Ci Ting wanted to suggest a full-team battle, she thought that with 20 students and each student having 6 Pokémon, that would be 120 Pokémon, which was still too many.
Moreover, students usually don't have six Pokémon; two or three, or even four, is enough. After all, it's rare for students to encounter Pokémon they like at school.
Even if you meet a Pokémon you like, these Pokémon belong to other students, or they are Pokémon that the teacher brought specifically for class.
