Although Reggie, who came to challenge this time, is very confident.
But now Brandon is no longer what it used to be.
After being instantly killed by Lu Chen last time, Brandon also conducted in-depth self-reflection.
I clearly understand that there are differences even among mythical beasts.
You cannot rely entirely on the power of mythical beasts.
So during this period of time, Brandon finally stopped being immersed in the arrogant state of conquering Legendary Pokémon.
He began to carefully study Regirock's fighting style, and even Brandon began to seriously train Regirock.
Faced with such Brandon, Reggie naturally has no chance of winning.
Reggie The six elves carefully prepared fell down one after another.
Reggie is standing on the battlefield.
The blood on his face faded little by little.
He watched as all six of his elves lost their ability to fight.
Then he looked at the Regirock opposite him who didn't even take a breath.
At this time, Reggie's whole body was trembling.
"I lost again."
Reggie's voice was full of despair.
During this period of time, Reggie worked hard to train the elves just to defeat Brandon.
As a result, the damage he caused to Regirock this time was not even as good as the previous two times.
Regirock doesn't even have a decent scratch on his body.
In other words, Reggie has been exercising hard for several months, but the more he exercises, the less useful it becomes.
In the audience, Paul's face also turned pale.
"No way! How could my brother lose?!"
Looking at the desperate Reggie in front of him, Brandon took back Regirock, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped forward.
He walked up to Reggie and stretched out his big rough hand.
Patted Reggie on the shoulder.
"Young man, you don't have to be too discouraged."
"I can see all your hard work during this time."
Reggie raised his head, a little light reignited in his eyes.
Brandon The topic changed.
"And you were defeated miserably by me this time, not because you became weaker."
"It's because I've become stronger."
"I was inspired by a strong man some time ago."
"I know I can't bask in the glory of Legendary Pokémon."
"After this period of thinking and nurturing, my Regirock has become stronger!"
Reggie was stunned when he heard what Brandon said.
'What do you mean it's not because I've become weaker, but because you've become stronger?'
However, Reggie is still very curious about the strong man Brandon talks about.
'If that strong man can make Master Brandon stronger, then he can definitely make me stronger too!'
After thinking about this, Reggie looked at Brandon with a pleading look on his face and said
"Master Brandon, can you tell me who that strong man is? I want to visit him."
Brandon looked at the sincere young man in front of him and hesitated for a moment. After all, Lu Chen has a special status...
Although Brandon had concerns, Ash, who knew nothing about it, did not.
Ash stuck his head out from the audience and shouted:
"I know! The name of the strong man Brandon mentioned is Lu Chen, and he lives in Pallet Town."
Reggie turned his head and bowed deeply to Ash.
"Thank you!"
Reggie straightened up, and there was light in his eyes again.
Pallet Town, Lu Chen. He remembered.
In the audience, Paul frowned and whispered:
"Is this person named Lu Chen really that strong?"
At this time, Ash and Paul looked at each other.
Although the two of them only met for the first time, both Paul and Ash felt that they didn't like each other.
Like natural enemies.
"Pallet Town..."
Reggie looked around and took a deep breath.
"Is this where Mr. Lu Chen lives?"
"As expected of the legendary town where Professor Oak lives, the environment is really nice."
Paul followed his brother, carrying his own backpack, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
He followed him all the way from Hoenn Region. He rode the train for several hours, and the further he walked, the more he felt something was wrong.
This Pallet Town looks like an ordinary country town.
The houses are low, the roads are narrow, and there isn't even a decent fighting facility on the roadside.
"Brother, are you sure that person named Lu Chen really lives in a place like this?"
Paul couldn't help but speak.
"Brandon leaders admire so much people, I thought they must at least live in a big city."
"Don't judge a book by its appearance." Reggie said without looking back.
"Brandon leader said that the strong man is a truly capable person."
"Really capable trainers often don't show off their abilities."
Paul curled his lips and said no more.
"It should be right here." After asking around, Reggie soon found Lu Chen's farm.
When approaching the entrance of the farm, the two of them stopped at the same time.
There are people in the fields.
To be precise, there are two Garchomp working on the ridge.
Reggie nodded:
"Looks like this is it."
"I didn't expect that Mr. Lu Chen also raised Garchomp just like our Sinnoh champion Cynthia."
"And I actually got two of them."
"He is worthy of being called a strong trainer by Master Brandon."
Paul stared at the two Garchomp for a few seconds and suddenly frowned.
"Brother, look at the one on the right."
"What's wrong?"
"The size of that Garchomp is a bit bigger than the one on the left."
Paul's tone was a little uncertain.
"And the luster of the scales... I seem to have seen it somewhere."
Reggie took a closer look and felt that it looked familiar.
But he didn't think much and walked into the farm.
"Excuse me, is Mr. Lu Chen here?"
On the edge of the field, a blond woman was bending over to mow the grass.
She was wearing an old apron that obviously didn't fit well, and her hair was tied back haphazardly with a piece of cloth.
With dirt on my hands, I was working hard to clean up the weeds.
Hearing the sound, she straightened up and turned her head.
Reggie and Paul froze in place at the same time.
That face.
Long blond hair, gray eyes, delicate and sharp facial features, with a natural coolness and Pressure.
Even though she is wearing an apron now, her hands are covered in mud and her face is covered with dust.
That face is still instantly recognizable.
"Hope...Cynthia?!" Reggie's voice broke.
"Sinnoh Champion Cynthia?!"
Paul was even more exaggerated. He took a step back and almost tripped over a field ridge.
Cynthia looked at the two strangers in front of him, with no expression on his face, and just nodded:
"Hello."
Then she turned around and continued to cultivate soil for the saplings.
Reggie and Paul looked at each other, with expressions on their faces as if they had been punched.
Paul leaned close to his brother's ear and lowered his voice:
"Brother, that's Cynthia, right? Sinnoh champion Cynthia?"
"We didn't admit our mistake, right?"
"You should be right." Reggie's voice also trembled with surprise.
"But why is she weeding here?"
The two of them haven't finished digesting this scene yet.
The larger Garchomp on the right suddenly stopped its paws.
He looked back at them.
Those eyes were as sharp as two knives, sweeping over the two of them and looking at them critically.
Paul's hair stood on end.
He recognized this look.
Because Paul saw with his own eyes that Cynthia took the invincible Garchomp in front of him and defeated Elite Four all the way.
In the end, in the 6V6 all-member battle, we defeated the previous Sinnoh champion.
And the Garchomp of Cynthia is Cynthia's strongest trump card!
In Sinnoh Region, it is no exaggeration to say that this Garchomp is the symbol of invincibility!
And the Garchomp in charge of Rototiller in front of us is exactly the same as the Garchomp in Paul's memory!
"Brother." Paul pulled Reggie's sleeves, his voice a little tight.
"That Garchomp is Cynthia's trump card Garchomp."
Reggie also recognized it.
His expression became very exciting, with shock, confusion, and disbelief all mixed together.
The dignified Sinnoh champion, Rototiller on someone else's farm.
Even the invincible Champion level's Garchomp plowed the soil in other people's fields.
Who is the owner of this farm?
"Are you here to see Lu Chen?"
A voice came from the farm house.
They both turned their heads at the same time.
Lu Chen stood there and looked at them and said
"I am Lu Chen."
Reggie Take a deep breath and suppress the messy images in your mind.
Reggie bowed directly to Lu Chen.
"Mr. Lu Chen! My name is Reggie, and this is my brother Paul."
"We heard that leader Brandon mentioned you and came here to visit you!"
"Brandon?" Lu Chen thought for a while, nodded and said:
"Oh, it's you. Brandon told me about your situation."
"Yes! Brandon leader said that you inspired him and made him stronger."
Reggie straightened up, his eyes serious.
"I have challenged the leader of Brandon three times and lost three times."
"I would like to ask you what I did not do enough."
