Charizard was blasted by Thunder, scorched outside and tender inside, losing all ability to battle. The Thunder strike even knocked it out of its Mega Evolution and back into its original form!
Zeraora stood with its hands on its hips. That must have made a great impression on little Happy Riolu. I, Zeraora, am definitely going to become its idol!
Sure enough, Riolu kept clapping excitedly as it watched Zeraora dominate the battlefield!
It even forgot to eat its eggshell!
Holding the eggshell, Blaziken looked at Riolu admiring Zeraora and felt terribly jealous!
You little ingrate! I spent so long hatching you, and now you don't even acknowledge me!
Zhu Yan recalled his defeated Charizard, but he did not look discouraged by the loss. On the contrary, he was delighted. Their organization had gained a Pokémon Trainer with tremendous potential, and that filled him with emotion!
Our generation is already getting old. Now it's time to wait for your generation of Pokémon Trainers to rise, Hu Bin!
Zhu Yan looked at Hu Bin with a gentle gaze, as though he were looking at their hope for the future!
Zhu Yan thought to himself, With a few more Pokémon Trainers like Hu Bin, we'll have a better chance against the Ultra Beasts. Keep at it, Hu Bin. All we can do for you now is protect you and help you grow quickly!
Then Zhu Yan walked over, patted Hu Bin on the shoulder, and took the Guangdu Badge out of his pocket to give to him.
"Here, this is the Guangdu Badge. Keep it safe. Once you've collected all your Badges, I'm looking forward to seeing a great performance from you at the Huaxia Alliance Conference!"
Hu Bin smiled and accepted it with both hands. "Thanks, Gym Leader Zhu Yan!"
