Chapter 88 : Mikan Island

//In the Sinnoh Region//

After hearing about Gary relinquishing his title Cynthia was very surprised and after hearing the reason she was very shocked as she never knew that a person just for continuation of his journey can leave the title back . Then she suddenly thought of herself . It would be good if I could do the same as being champion is boring . He would have surely knew about that this why he left after all sometime his both father and grandfather were Kanto Champion .

//In Kalos region//

Diantha was also shocked like Cynthia but soon accepted as she knew how much work is it for a champion she subconsciously said " If I could also so the same "

Her assistant suddenly glared and spoke " For you not doing the same many higher ups have sent many gifts to you "

Diantha nodded

//Back to mc//

Gary was with girls present in his private ferry for his journey for Orange Islands given himself by Pro. Oak .

Gary just looked forward so that he could get a good view of the ocean .

Aya suddenly wrapped arms around him from the back .

Gary asked " What happened Aya "

Aya shook her head and said " Nothing "

Gary took Aya in his arms and ran towards his room while laughing .

//In the Mikan Island//

Ash has received coral eye badge . He was very happy . He clenched his fists and said " I am gonna surpass you Gary "

//Back to the mc//

After a long journey of 2 days Gary finally reached .

After reaching the island Gary didn't stop at Pokemon Center first straight went to the gym . After reaching the gym he found Cissy the gym leader

From the website he was able to found a good information of her

According to Tracey, Cissy is known as one of the toughest Trainers in the Orange Crew. She specializes in Water-type Pokémon, and one of the rules of her Gym is that her opponents are required to use Water-type Pokémon as well.

She lives with her little brother, Senta, who is also a Pokémon Trainer and serves as a Gym assistant. The pair have a good relationship, though she is prepared to pull Senta into line if he is misbehaving.

Gary straight went to Cissy for challenge .

She was very shocked to find her challenger was none other than the former Kanto Champion .

Cissy hurriedly became respectful .

She says " I would have never expected that the great trainer would be coming to Orange Islands for challenge "

Gary just laughed " I thought it would be interesting "

Cissy then said " Let's not waste time of the great trainer and start "

Gary laughed

Cissy explains " Orange gyms are different from Kanto if you would say "

Gary said " I have heard let's just see "

Cissy explains that on the Orange Islands, the Gym battles are different from Kanto's Pokémon battles. Senta presses the buttons on his remote, making a line of cans appear, and the battlefield becomes an aquatic pool. Cissy proceeds to call out her Seadra, which Gary scans with his Pokédex. She announces that the first challenge is a Water Gun match-up, where a Pokémon's accuracy is tested by shooting down as many cans as possible.

{Seadra

Capable of swimming backwards by rapidly flapping its wing-like pectoral fins and stout tail.

Touching the back fin causes numbness. It hooks its tail to coral to stay in place while sleeping.

An examination of its cells revealed the presence of a gene not found in HORSEA. It became a hot topic. Its fin-tips leak poison. Its fins and bones are highly valued as ingredients in herbal medicine.}

Gary smirked and called out his Blastoise .

Blastoise now your work is here . Blastoise appeared very excited after finding a new type of battle .

Cissy said " I never thought I would have a chance to fight with the ace pokemon of the champion "

Gary laughed " I will not go easy one you "

Cissy laughed .

The match started . Blastoise was easily able to win from her because Blastoise having two canons on it's back it had twice efficiency than Seadra .

Cissy said " I lost "

Girls "Gary, Gary, he's our man. If he can't do it, no one can! Go...Gary!".

Then for second match the aim of the challenge shifts to shooting down flying plates .

This match was easily won by Gary because Blastoise accuracy and speed of water gun was very much better than Seadra . Gary laughed because of the easy win he got . Cissy shook her headed but didn't appear distressed as she knew before facing Gary defeating him was a dream to many people but having a battle with him was great honor for her .
