"Hey, why are you in such a hurry to leave? You've come all this way, so come sit at my place!"
Seeing Yuga about to leave, Glenn quickly grabbed his idol.
In the end, Yuga couldn't resist Glenn's enthusiasm and was dragged to his house.
Glenn's house was not far from where Yuga was standing, and they had a high-end restaurant, well-known in the Food Court.
As Yuga was being pulled into the restaurant by Glenn, he came face to face with Glenn's father.
"Who's this?"
Glenn's father looked at the young man his son was pulling and asked in confusion.
Glenn happily said, "Dad, this is the one I told you about, my idol, Shimizu Yuga. You can call him Yuga; that's what I call him."
Hearing that the young man in front of him was his son's idol, Glenn's father's expression immediately changed.
What! This is my son's idol? How impressive can this little kid be? I used to be my son's idol!
How can this be! I should still be Glenn's idol!
Seeing the sudden anger in Glenn's father's eyes, Yuga was puzzled.
"Dad! Hurry up and prepare something delicious. Treat my idol well!"
As Glenn pulled Yuga into the restaurant, he said to his father.
Want to eat? No way!
"Glenn! We have rules in our restaurant. If you want to eat for free, you have to participate in a battle!"
Glenn's father was secretly delighted. See how you're trying to deceive my son. Unforgivable!
"Ugh, Dad, why are you being so troublesome! My idol came all this way, and you're playing these games!"
Glenn looked at his father in exasperation.
Troublesome... troublesome...
His son actually called him troublesome...
Glenn's father felt heartbroken. Damn, it's all this Shimizu Yuga's fault.
Just as Glenn's father was thinking about how to persuade Yuga to agree to a battle, he heard Glenn say, "Well, fine, let's battle then! My idol isn't afraid of anyone anyway!"
Glenn's father was dumbfounded!
Your idol isn't afraid, but am I, your father, supposed to be scared? I'm not afraid of anyone either!
Seeing Glenn's father's pained expression and Glenn's confident "my idol is the best" look, Yuga was speechless.
You two are how old?
"Um, can you two decide when to battle and consult the person involved first?"
Yuga raised his hand and asked quietly.
"What's the matter, kid? Are you scared?"
Glenn's father looked at Yuga provocatively.
"Dad, be gentler with your words!" Glenn tugged at his father's clothes, discontent evident.
What's wrong with my dad today? Acting all strange!
Feeling exasperated by Glenn's father's determined expression, Yuga reluctantly agreed.
Kid, consider yourself brave!
The three of them arrived at a specially prepared battle area in the restaurant, and Glenn's father released his Pokémon first, a Grumpig.
"I'll send out my Pokémon first, giving you a chance!"
Glenn's father said confidently.
...
<<Grumpig>>
Type: Psychic
Ability: Thick Fat
Gender: Male
Potential: Yellow
Level: 42
Moves: Psywave, Psybeam, Power Gem, Iron Tail, Signal Beam
...
A decent Grumpig. No wonder he's so confident.
At least as an amateur Trainer, this Grumpig's level is quite high, even though its moves and potential are not outstanding.
Seeing a Pokémon battle starting in the designated area, many people began to gather around.
"Bellossom, come on out!"
Yuga took out his Poké Ball and released his Pokémon.
"Bellossom, it's our first battle together. Let's do our best!"
"Bellossom!"
Bellossom nodded in excitement and then stared fiercely at the opposing Grumpig.
Bellossom had a lower level than Grumpig, but she had been well-trained, so both sides had their advantages.
"Grumpig, use Signal Beam!"
"Bellossom, bring out the Sunny Day!"
At the referee's command, both of them issued their orders.
Grumpig's hands merged, forming a pale yellow ball of light, which then shot towards Bellossom.
Bellossom tilted her body slightly to the side, easily dodging Grumpig's Signal Beam. Immediately, she threw a glowing orb into the air.
After the orb burst in the air, everyone present felt a noticeable increase in temperature in the surroundings.
Grumpig, seeing its first attack ineffective, immediately prepared for a second round of offense.
But Bellossom was like lightning, releasing an Energy Ball in an instant that disrupted Grumpig's move with incredible speed.
"Why so fast!"
Glenn's father wore a bewildered expression, taking a while to remember that most Bellossoms possessed the Chlorophyll ability.
"Grumpig, use Psybeam to control Bellossom's movements!"
Realizing what was happening, Glenn's father attempted to obstruct Bellossom's actions, but she responded with a Solar Beam.
The colorful Psybeam collided with the yellow Solar Beam, which shattered the Psybeam and struck Grumpig with undiminished force, rendering it incapacitated in an instant.
It was nearly a one-sided battle!
There was no helping it; the Bellossom, bred by Mr. Kuni'o, was exceptionally talented, proficient in all its moves. For example, the earlier Sunny Day and the recent Solar Beam were executed so swiftly that Grumpig's reaction couldn't keep up.
"Grumpig!"
Seeing Grumpig on the ground, Glenn's father was dumbfounded.
"This is incredible!"
"Yeah, there's no suspense at all!"
"I remember the boss being quite strong, right?"
"It's just that the opponent is too amazing!"
The crowd was abuzz with discussion.
At that moment, a young man and a girl entered the restaurant.
"Big brother, it looks like there's a Pokémon battle going on! Let's go watch!"
The girl tugged on her big brother's hand, acting coquettish.
The man said, "What's interesting about battles at this level?"
"No, no, let's go see!" The girl continued to sway her brother's hand, determined not to give up until he agreed.
In the end, the man reluctantly conceded to his sister's request.
Meanwhile, in the battle area, Yuga was using his Chimecho to heal Grumpig, and its injuries were quickly mended.
"I've lost. You're really amazing!"
Glenn's father admired, genuinely acknowledging Yuga's strength.
However, what he was really thinking was: my son has a good eye!
This father is beyond help.
On the other hand, as they entered the battle area, the man accompanying his sister began to regret when he saw Yuga standing there.
"Why is it this guy? He's persistent."
The man hurriedly said, "Ah, Adrielle, let's go eat first. We can watch the battle later."
That's right; the man and the girl were Genos and his sister, Adrielle.
But Genos regretted his words too late. When Adrielle saw Yuga standing in the center, she immediately got excited.
"Big brother! Big brother!"
Adrielle raised her hands high, shouting with excitement.
All eyes in the room turned to focus on the loudly cheering Adrielle, including Yuga.
Well, that's a defeat! Genos sighed.
