Pokémon: I just became a Gym Leader, and Cynthia proposed to me.

Chapter 459 The stronger you are, the more excited I get

Shen Dai dismissed the others from the stone chamber, asked Li Shuwen to do him a favor while riding Milton, and then had the Ivory Boars and the others infuse primal power into the corresponding gems.

After infusing the three Pokémon with Ancient Power, Li Shuwen immediately used a Poké Ball to recall them all.

Milton immediately rushed to the entrance of the stone chamber.

If things went wrong, he immediately ordered Millerton to rush out of the ruins.

The three gems emitted light, which traveled along the path in the wall and finally converged at the center of the ground.

The ground suddenly trembled violently and cracked open, scaring Kamishiro into running out of the stone chamber.

Kamishiro stood at the doorway, continuing to observe the changes in the stone chamber.

After the ground opened up, a stone platform rose up.

After the stone platform was raised, the earth immediately returned to calm.

After confirming that everything was alright, Kamishiro slowly walked into the stone chamber.

The stone platform that rises up has a stone slab on it, with a topographical map drawn by the ancients and a detailed description of the location of the Registeel seal.

However, such descriptions always carry a certain poetic quality that can only be interpreted in a meaningful way, requiring careful analysis by later generations.

It's unclear how long it will take for Kamishiro to find the location of Registeel's seal.

Perhaps the Age of Gods will continue exploring the ruins and find the sealing locations of other Registeel, but they haven't found the sealing location of this one yet.

It's even possible that Registeel has been released and resealed in a new location by another group of ancient people.

Anything can happen in such a long time.

Li Shuwen glanced at the abstract ancient map on the stone slab, shrugged, and said, "The ancients drew maps using different methods and standards, so it's very difficult to find the locations shown here."

"It seems I won't have a chance to fight Registeel this time."

When the gods removed the stone slab, they discovered an ancient crown inside the stone platform.

"Shuwen, you've helped us so much, you can keep this ancient crown as a souvenir."

Li Shuwen readily accepted it, saying, "Okay, it'll come in handy."

Kamishiro chuckled and asked, "Did you capture a Slowpoke and plan to put a crown on it to evolve it into Slowking?"

Li Shuwen shook his head. "Those who are cultivated in that way can only be considered to inherit the throne. A true king is one who works his way up little by little and puts on the crown himself."

Li Shuwen might as well choose a place with many Slowpokes and use this ancient crown to select a Slowpoke with the demeanor of a king.

Then, using the same method, select a large tongue clam.

Even so, it's not as good as the Slowpoke Beast named Arthur that appears in the anime, which is like the true king.

Li Meining captured a Slowpoke.

Li Shuwen had no idea what Li Meining wanted to do after capturing Slowpoke.

Does she have no self-awareness whatsoever? Does she seem like someone who can raise Pokémon with Psychic-type abilities?

Thinking about Slowpoke's habits, Li Shuwen suddenly felt that Slowpoke and Li Meining were indeed a good match.

Although the possibility of Slowpoke evolving into Slowking is very low.

However, Li Shuwen still accepted the ancient crown and let Li Meining keep it, just in case Li Meining really did raise a silly king.

A king doesn't necessarily have to be a smart person, and there's no rule that someone like Li Meining can't become a king.

Li Shuwen, however, felt that Li Meining, a hot-blooded and impulsive man with superhuman strength, actually had a good chance of becoming king.

Li Meining's silly beast is usually slow to react during training, often appearing dazed.

But when it comes to eating, it's just as ferocious as the turkey it used to be.

Although Regischiru was not found at the site, the excavation work still needs to continue.

Although Li Shuwen really wanted to participate in the entire excavation of the ruins, he needed to go back and train his Pokémon.

He doesn't have the same strength as the gods, so he has to devote all his energy to this battle.

Li Shuwen bid farewell to Shendai, who nodded and said, "No problem. It seems I also need to train with my old buddies so that I won't disappoint you during the battle."

Li Shuwen was brimming with fighting spirit: "I look forward to my battle with Mr. Kamishiro the day after tomorrow!"

Back at the lake, Li Shuwen was also considering which six Pokémon should be sent out based on their condition.

Li Shuwen only finalized the lineup for the match the night before.

Goodra, Milton, Gallade, Seraph, Kommo-o, and Ape-o'-L. Although there are a few more Fighting-type characters, this lineup is still quite well-rounded.

Moreover, Li Shuwen believed that attributes were not the key to determining victory or defeat.

Upon learning the lineup of the battle, the Pokémon that got the chance to fight were very excited.

Those who didn't get the chance weren't discouraged; they just kept training.

Anyway, there's another expert behind them. If all else fails, they still have the Dojo Ranking Tournament, a great place to shine.

The next morning, while Li Shuwen and the others were having breakfast, Shen Dai appeared by the lake riding a giant salamander.

"It smells so good! Would you mind if I sat down and tried it with you?"

Kamio jumped directly from the back of the salamander to the open space by the lake.

Li Shuwen immediately got up and brought Shendai a chair and a breakfast, saying, "I guarantee Mr. Shendai will like my cooking."

Upon seeing Raiji, Kamishiro raised an eyebrow. Remembering that they were both from Sinnoh, Kamishiro asked, "Are you good friends?"

Li Shuwen nodded and explained, "That's right, Lei Si is a bit confused, and as a good friend, I feel it's necessary for me to come and give him some guidance."

Seeing the change in Raiji's mental state, Kamishiro nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad, you've made great progress."

Taking a bite of breakfast, Jindai ate with delight, "Delicious! I haven't had a proper meal in a long time because I've been developing the ruins these past few days."

"After taking this bite, I feel completely refreshed. Shuwen, you're aiding the enemy!"

Li Shuwen said with a smile, "It's alright. The stronger Mr. Kamishiro is, the more excited we are."

A good trainer can remain calm even when facing a legendary Pokémon.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, Jindai clapped his hands and said, "Do you have a fishing rod? Since we're at the lake, how can we not go fishing?"

Ram frowned. This old man came here to freeload and now he's fishing. Can't we just start fighting already?

Didn't you know there were still so many people waiting to watch the game?

Yura gave Ram a look, stopping her younger sister from causing trouble.

Li Shuwen took out his fishing rod and, together with Lei Si, fished by the lake for two hours.

Although they hadn't caught a single fish, Li Shuwen remained calm, and neither did Lei Si show the slightest impatience.

Kamishiro put away his fishing rod. "It's about time. Let's begin our battle."

The group arrived at the battlefield, and Shiro first released his six Pokémon.

The first one was naturally Toxapex, followed by Dusknoir, Razer, Nidoking, and Blastoise.

The presence of these five Pokémon was quite imposing.

Especially the Night Demon, looking into his eyes was like staring into an abyss.

And the Regirock, which is kept in the back of the cabinet.

This Regirock is only a little over three meters tall.

But the aura emanating from him made all the trainers present hold their breath.

Lei Si, in particular, recalled some very unpleasant memories.

But Li Shuwen's eyes only showed excitement!
