"That's pretty much what happened... I only lost to that guy because I wasn't prepared!" That evening, Bai Yun lay on a cooling mat, still refusing to accept his defeat.
"Yes, yes, yes..." Lin Lin sat beside him, listening to her boyfriend grumble as she reached over and lowered the air conditioner a few degrees.
"But a 1.9-meter-tall Human Bear... I've never seen one before. Could it be some newly discovered Pokémon?"
Bai Yun shook his head. "Probably not. The old Celestial Master seems to have known about that guy for a long time. He was the one who specifically told me to challenge it."
"Then why not go ask the old Celestial Master?"
"Hmm?"
Early the next morning, Bai Yun obediently went to the old Celestial Master's room and sat on an empty meditation cushion without a word.
The old Celestial Master did not even open his eyes, but a hint of amusement crept into his voice.
"Lost?"
"Yes..." Bai Yun was a little embarrassed.
"I've never seen a Pokémon like that before. It looks so strange. And those terrifying fighting techniques were unlike anything I've ever seen. It was like... like..."
"Like what?" the old Celestial Master deliberately asked.
Bai Yun fell silent for a while before speaking.
"Like flowing water... or rather, a waterfall. That guy's attacks were as fast and relentless as flowing water, leaving no chance to fight back. But it didn't take the initiative to attack. Instead, it quietly waited for an opening, seized its chance, and delivered a continuous barrage of painful blows to win. In that respect, it was like a waterfall plunging down, impossible to resist."
"You're quite right." The old Celestial Master nodded in agreement. "Those are indeed that fellow's unique fighting techniques."
"So what Pokémon is it, exactly?
