Chapter 265: Real Collision, Let's Go Ride the Ferris Wheel!

~16 min read 3,100 words

Chandelure's Overheat, Haxorus's Dragon Tail; Krookodile's Crunch, Whimsicott's Tailwind.

Excadrill vs. Excadrill, dual Earthquakes shook violently inside the carriage.

Eelektross blasted out Thunderbolt, and Darmanitan's weakness was targeted, Attack and Special Attack rose significantly!

The fierce battle was staged in this indestructible carriage, and even the trainers were almost involved!

However, the ones who had the upper hand were still N and Yancy. Although Yancy's Excadrill was far inferior to the Subway Boss's Pokémon in terms of cultivation, with N assisting from the middle, the counterattack hit at the right time was enough to make Yancy's Excadrill exert an eye-catching tactic!

Finally, until Haxorus and Chandelure both fell, and Krookodile and Whimsicott also exited the field quickly, the battle scene came to the final 2v2 decisive game. Eelektross was the first to be eliminated, Excadrill's Mold Breaker ignored its Levitate ability!

"Woah! What an opponent not to be underestimated!"

Ingo's Pokémon all lost their ability to fight first. He pushed his hat brim, and excited brilliance flowed in his eyes:

"This time I, Ingo, lost, but I feel very happy, because it is really interesting! Your mood of wanting to win and my mood of not wanting to lose are both real. Because they are both real, the collision is so exciting!"

N listened to the voices of the Subway Boss's Pokémon. They were also saying the same thing. Although they lost, although the battle was very tiring, they were very excited and happy!

Is that so... their feeling, because of the collision of reality and reality, this is "battle"!

And when N was stunned, Yancy performed supernormally and finally commanded her Excadrill to defeat Emmet's Excadrill!

"Whoo—whoo—"

"Yay! Yay! We won! Beat the Subway Boss!"

Yancy jumped on the spot rarely, showing the excited posture of a little girl, and Yancy's Excadrill also had a smile on the corner of its mouth, looking back at its little master, which meant that you commanded quite well in the end!

"Amazing! This is the praise I, Emmet, give from the bottom of my heart!" Emmet began to applaud: "Your unparalleled cooperation with Pokémon is really wonderful!"

"That's right! The combination with others can produce a greater and stronger energy than you alone! This is the best engine! If possible, form a new combination and challenge us again next time!"

The Subway Bosses gave up their positions and indicated that please wait a little while at the next station, where someone will award you the trophy!

"Arrived, reached the terminal station?"

N was somewhat trance-like. He had just heard too many voices of Pokémon, those chirping, impassioned, extremely excited roars, the desire to fight, the desire to mobilize all power, made N fall into a state of self-questioning.

The more he fought, the more he didn't understand, battle... becoming stronger, trainers...

The boundaries of black and white seemed to be gradually blurring. Does the relationship between people and Pokémon change in different situations?

Or is it that Pokémon are relying on human power to become stronger, while humans rely on the "reality" of Pokémon fighting each other to confirm each other's hearts?

A bigger stage... a stage of brilliance...

The door of the terminal station opened, N walked out in a trance, and Yancy followed him.

And then, Xiang Guangtai and the Subway Bosses also walked down.

"Thank you."

N came back to his senses from the state of self-thinking, rarely thanked the Subway Bosses, and then went to the terminal station with the excited Yancy and Xiang Guangtai, and got the trophy named victory.

If it were before, N would probably be quite disgusted with this trophy. This is an honor obtained by hurting Pokémon. He would definitely disdain to seek such things.

But now, N could feel that whether it was Krookodile who requested help temporarily, or Darmanitan who had been with him for a long time, they were all happy and joyful from the bottom of their hearts when they saw him holding up the trophy!

This is their glory, and also his glory? Pokémon think so!

"It's really incredible, now my heart is full of a strange emotion, what is that... is it moving?"

"The heart is beating thump-thump-thump, as if telling me that I am a life so truly living in the world!"

Countless thoughts emerged in N's mind, and Xiang Guangtai also congratulated N, and there was Yancy on the side raising her finger to make a V sign of victory. N pondered, but at least one point could be clarified!

That is, this trophy is something Pokémon like!

Since that's the case, this trophy is something worth keeping. This is also an important "real thing" obtained after he broke through the Battle Subway!

Perhaps he had already obtained part of the content about reality from the Subway Boss here, then, the power that guides all trainers to embark on the path of battle, and those Pokémon that came here for the sake of battle, guiding them, that is "ideal"!

And at this time, Emmet among the Subway Bosses suddenly looked suspiciously at Xiang Guangtai.

They walked to the terminal station synchronously, but this audience who didn't participate in the challenge gave Emmet a very mysterious and powerful feeling, and in a trance, it seemed somewhat familiar.

This feeling is very strange, as if spirits are echoing each other.

"Sorry! Have we met somewhere before?"

Emmet took the initiative to talk to Xiang Guangtai, and Xiang Guangtai was slightly startled, and then understood.

After the spirit is strengthened, even if he leaves the Ancient City, can he still make the People of the God-Seal feel it like attracting Clay before?

The People of the God-Seal will attract each other... Why does this setting seem familiar?

"Perhaps we met a long time ago."

Xiang Guangtai smiled, understanding some of his future.

Perhaps it is really as Yurin, Cogita and others said, he will go to the Hisui era in a long time. After all... the Miracle Diamond is in his hands. When he obtains the aura of time and collects the remaining two special amulets, perhaps it will be the time when he can travel through time and space.

"A long time ago... that must really be a long time. I can't even remember clearly. I just feel nostalgic and kind when I see you. It's really incredible."

Emmet's strange face also smiled: "If you were a woman, I would definitely think I was picking you up! Haha, how about it, since we might have met somewhere before, why don't you challenge the Battle Subway next time!"

Xiang Guangtai: "Of course! If there is a chance! But I am a bit busy now."

Emmet smiled: "It doesn't matter, the Battle Subway is always open! Then, please pay attention to safety on the way back, the train back will arrive soon! We will go one step ahead!"

Ingo looked at Xiang Guangtai: "When Emmet felt you were kind, even I unconsciously gave birth to this feeling, it's really wonderful!"

"Congratulations to your friends for clearing the Battle Subway, but I think they can work harder and be more powerful in the future! Work hard and climb to a higher place!"

The two Subway Bosses returned to the train. Although it is said to be the terminal station, it is only the terminal of the Battle Subway. They are now going to another station.

Xiang Guangtai waved goodbye to them.

And Teacher N here also figured out many things.

"Thank you, Yancy, I think I understand many things about our cooperation."

"Also, thank you, Lord Xiang Guangtai."

N thanked Yancy and Xiang Guangtai. He seemed to think of some things and suddenly said to Xiang Guangtai:

"I want to fight you."

Xiang Guangtai: "?"

N: "That's right, it's just a sudden idea. I think perhaps battle is really the result of the collision of each other's reality and ideals. If I need to become... in short, I hope to fight you at an important location."

"I am in a good mood now, without any pain, but I still can't figure out many things."

"So, I decided to go to Celestial Tower."

"That tower is the place where countless Pokémon have passed away, and righteous souls are sleeping there. I heard that the bell at the top of the tower can reflect a person's inner heart. I think I should go and ring that big bell once with this mood now."

"Although I still feel that our team's behavior is correct... but, perhaps some things don't have to be completely... in short, as long as I become stronger than the champion... everything will be changed and corrected!"

Xiang Guangtai rubbed his eyebrows immediately.

Although in the original work, Teacher N also wanted to surpass the champion in the end, but the state of mind at that time was obviously completely different from now!

What kind of personality is this?

Switched to Battle-Crazy N directly after finishing the Battle Subway? It turns out you still have such a side!

"No problem, I also want to go to Mistralton City." Xiang Guangtai touched a Poké Ball: "There is a Pokémon that needs to return to its hometown, and I want to go to Mistralton City to investigate some things."

"Perhaps we will meet again in Mistralton."

"That would be great!" N's joy was beyond words. He laughed from the bottom of his heart. The originally somewhat hollow eyes became full of light, as if he had found the direction for life to move forward, although it was only temporary.

But this feeling, N gripped the trophy tightly.

This important feeling, he will never forget in his life!

"Since that's the case, do you want to go to an interesting place? We have already won the championship, let's go ride the Ferris wheel! I like that amusement facility very much! I like the Ferris wheel. Its circular motion... mechanics are like a collection of beautiful formulas!"

On the other side, although Yancy didn't understand what the two young men were talking about, she felt that it was not something she should care about. The important thing was that Teacher N's face showed a smile from the bottom of his heart again. Yancy nodded:

"I think this is very good!"

"Then let's go ride the Ferris wheel! There is still Elesa's fashion show in the afternoon!"

"That clothing..." N suddenly said: "It was made by you, right. I heard that what was exhibited at the fashion show was the dress you made."

"Eh?!" Yancy was shocked, looking at Xiang Guangtai in surprise, but then rubbed her dimples while thinking: "Eh? Xiang Guangtai, Xiang Guangtai..."

Only then did she react belatedly!

"Ah! Brother Xiang Guangtai, could it be that you are the person who appeared in the news in Castelia City before! And you are also that mysterious genius artist!"

Xiang Guangtai smiled: "Genius artist can't be said, Gym Leader Burgh praised me too high. The reason why I exhibited my works there is because I had to do it. I am also a person with goals in action. Everything I do is helping a friend."

N: "I can probably understand this mood, forced actions for the sake of friends... no, actually you also enjoy it very much."

Xiang Guangtai laughed: "Don't worry about these things. In short, all consumption in Nimbasa City today will be paid by me. Someone gave me a Nimbasa City amusement card before. No matter how many people are invited to play, all amusement facilities are free to use within ten years!"

The three walked out of the Battle Subway. The time is still early. Led by Yancy, they quickly came to the location of the Ferris wheel. Unlike the game, the real big Ferris wheel is of course a four-seater, but generally no one will sit on it like this.

After all, there are more couples riding the Ferris wheel, although occasionally there are family combinations, but they are rare. And strange combinations like Xiang Guangtai, Teacher N, and Yancy also attracted some attention from others.

But most people come to Nimbasa to have fun, and will not interfere too much with other people's affairs, especially seeing that these people are also holding two trophies, they immediately realized that they are "double partners"!

Then, this is not strange!

In the double partners of the Battle Subway, stranger combinations have been seen.

When the Ferris wheel turns to the highest point, you can overlook the entire Nimbasa City from here.

"It's really beautiful..." Yancy muttered to herself. She felt that today was really very happy!

N looked into the distance, and at the same time put his eyes on the Pokémon incubator carried by Yancy behind her back.

"This Pokémon feels like it's about to hatch."

"Probably because it was taken over by me." Xiang Guangtai admitted that because he mastered the knowledge of a certain hatcher, the Pokémon eggs he touched would hatch quickly.

It can only be said that Gold's power is really a gospel for hatchers. In the special edition original work, it is also the same. Just rolling the egg twice, a non-legal Pichu was hatched directly.

"You still have the ability to hatch... it's really incredible."

N smiled and lowered his head: "I have also met many people with special powers. I heard that there are more people with special powers in the world. It turns out that I am not a monster, and special powers are not rare in the world."

Xiang Guangtai: "No, most people in the world are still ordinary people. The proportion of various ability users is very small, but you often drill into places where there are no people. Those places are easy to gather the spirit of the world, which will attract special ability users."

"However, you said one sentence very correctly. It seems that you also understand. Having special abilities is not a bad thing. Many ordinary people even desire to obtain these abilities because of this. Isn't it very good to be able to talk to Pokémon? In the distant Kanto region, a professor also developed a machine that can turn himself into a Pokémon, Professor Bill, have you heard of it?"

"He is the developer of the Pokémon Storage System, and he has also turned into a Pokémon himself."

"Eh?" N was stunned, obviously not expecting such a bizarre thing.

"Not only that, a well-known designer in Kalos, a dream girl from the Johto region, that girl also designed many clothes related to Pokémon in order to become a Pokémon, and she can also communicate with her Pokémon."

"And there is a Battle Frontier Brain in the Battle Frontier who can understand the heart of Pokémon. Even... don't you know about Pokémon Rangers?"

"I'm not talking about those on duty in Unova, but those in the Pokémon Ranger headquarters. In the distant Almia region, there is a prop called Capture Styler. Rangers use this prop to communicate with Pokémon, in order to pass on their hearts, so that wild Pokémon can temporarily help themselves!"

Xiang Guangtai's description made N fall into a fantasy time.

Understand yourself, understand others, and finally understand the world.

Xiang Guangtai's words before, N finally understood at this time.

The world is so vast!

And travel is a good thing.

"Ah, by the way, my partner wants to talk to you. It is a Pokémon from the other side of the universe!"

Xiang Guangtai handed Deoxys to N. This is also Deoxys's idea. It had discovered that this green-haired young man was unusual before, and chatting with people and Pokémon is what Deoxys likes to do most, at least it is what it likes to do most now.

Contacting and communicating with different lives, finally learning incredible novel things, and getting different moving and precious memories, this is the meaning of life and travel.

Of course, like everyone and Pokémon, when learning about Deoxys's origin, even N could not maintain his expression, quite surprised, and afterwards, it was endless curiosity!

After coming down from the Ferris wheel, the three went to the fashion show stage next to the Nimbasa Gym. In Black and White 2, this place directly became a gym and was renovated. And the Nimbasa Gym is also very huge as in the animation, and there is an underground amusement park hidden inside.

Elesa's fashion show is about to start. Yancy waved her hand, relying on her small body to squeeze forward, and found a good position, making Xiang Guangtai and N look at each other helplessly.

At this time, Yancy is still a relatively lively and cute type, and has not yet become the state of the study committee member later.

And soon, the shining beauty of Nimbasa took the stage. The dragon clothing worn made the whole audience burst into cheers one after another, and Xiang Guangtai here received a lot of "recognition" and "feedback"!

Although most people are not aiming at recognizing the clothes, purely because Elesa is wearing them, but not discussing the process and only talking about the results, generally speaking, this exhibition was very successful, wasn't it!

"The effect is very good." Xiang Guangtai commented, and the Connected Tree also sent a message.

【The Connected Tree felt a lot of will. Although the recognition degree is low, it is still effective. The rotten branches are slowly regenerating, and many leaves are growing slowly!】

"Sometimes there will be fashion show battles here. Elesa will invite some people to the stage to fight. If you win, it is equivalent to a gym challenge and will be awarded the Nimbasa Gym badge."

Yancy was excitedly popularizing science for Xiang Guangtai and N, while N hurriedly lowered his hat brim.

Obviously, he didn't want to be discovered.

And coming here was just to see that dragon costume. As for Elesa herself, N was not interested.

However, when Elesa was walking the show, she suddenly noticed Xiang Guangtai in the crowd.

Undoubtedly, it was exactly the same as the appearance given in the news at that time!

After Burgh mentioned this matter, Elesa also specifically watched the replay of that news once.

Interesting!

This beauty of Nimbasa who loves to tell cold jokes suddenly raised the corner of her mouth!

Let's heat up the atmosphere of this fashion show to the climax!

"I will choose an audience as my battle opponent, right at this fashion show... So!"

"That audience, let's fight!"

Elesa directly issued an invitation to Xiang Guangtai under the stage!
