"I refuse to accept this! Fight me again!"
Meng Hua's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Red , enunciating each word through clenched teeth.
Facing this, Red simply replied coldly:
"This is the Songzao Gym—not a place for you to run wild. Recall your Pokémon and get out."
Hearing this, Meng Hua burst into manic laughter.
"I said—I want another battle!"
As his voice grew increasingly unhinged, the two Pokémon beside him also became more and more agitated.
Crackling sparks flashed wildly through the air. The arcs of electricity around Magnezone began to lose control, and every electronic device in the Gym emitted sharp warning alarms at the same time.
Seeing this, Red 's expression darkened further. In a corner unnoticed by others, Qiao Yixue quietly took out a Poké Ball from her waist.
Just as the tension between both sides reached the brink of explosion—
Whether due to Electivire's sparks or Magnezone's magnetic field, a computer suddenly exploded on its own.
The sudden blast ignited everyone's already taut nerves.
Seeing that the situation had escalated into an actual attack, Red didn't hesitate. He immediately reached for the Poké Ball at his waist—
The Gym's ace, Tyranitar.
A challenger who barges in, refuses to accept defeat, and even dares to attack an official League Gym—
Even if Red crippled him on the spot, the League wouldn't dare say a word.
"Tyranitar—"
"Everyone, stop!"
Just as Red was about to send out Tyranitar, Qiao Yixue stepped forward, breaking the explosive standoff.
"Come out—Chansey!"
A seemingly harmless, adorable pink "devil" appeared between Red and Meng Hua.
But the moment Red saw Chansey's level, he couldn't help but frown—his heart jolting with shock.
His shock wasn't due to Chansey's sudden appearance—
But because of its level.
[Pokémon: Chansey ♀]
[Level: 60]
[Talent: High]
[Moves: Soft-Boiled, Toxic, Gravity, Minimize, Rest, Heal Bell, Thunderbolt, Fire Blast…]
[Description: A Chansey only one step away from Elite Four level. Extremely rare among a species not known for battling.]
A level 60 Chansey!
The same level as his father's Tyranitar.
Red cast a deep glance at Qiao Yixue.
He knew very well—an ordinary Nurse Joy could not possibly possess a quasi-Elite Four-level Pokémon.
And he had never heard that the Nurse Joy of Songzao City was this strong…
Seeing this, Red quietly put Tyranitar's Poké Ball away.
He wanted to see what this "Nurse Joy of Songzao City" was planning to do next.
Qiao Yixue looked at Red and said:
"Gym Leader Red , please rest assured . Although I am a Nurse Joy, I do have some experience in Pokémon battles."
"Just 'some experience'?" Red thought silently.
"From now on, no one will be allowed to cause trouble in your Gym."
Qiao Yixue spoke with complete seriousness.
Her cute face was filled with determination.
Clearly, from her perspective, Red was just a newly appointed Gym Leader being bullied by a rich second-generation troublemaker.
"And who do you think you are? Just a Nurse Joy? This isn't a Pokémon Center—this situation isn't for you to interfere in—"
Before Meng Hua could finish speaking—
In the next instant, both he and his two Pokémon were enveloped by an overwhelming force of gravity.
Boom!
The terrifying pressure slammed them to the ground, pinning all three in place, completely unable to move.
Meng Hua's face twisted under the crushing force. Electivire's metal joints creaked with an ear-piercing groan, while Magnezone's three bodies were flattened—
Like specimens pressed into the floor by an invisible hand.
And the one responsible for all of this—
Was that seemingly harmless pink "devil," Chansey.
"I didn't give you permission to speak."
