Chapter 237: You Are Not Allowed to Play Pokémon! Chapter 106

But for the Sunny Gym, it can also be considered a qualitative leap.

And in the comments below the Sunny Gym page, there are also "warm reminders" left by students who have already passed the assessment:

【The Gym assessment this week is Garganacl; although it is a bit disgusting, it is still relatively easy to deal with.】

【Family members, Covert Cloak has a miraculous effect against Garganacl! It is strongly recommended that every trainer going to challenge the Sunny Gym put it on their Pokémon!】

Covert Cloak, a battle item native to the Paldea region.

Pokémon carrying this item can ignore the influence of most additional effects by shielding part of their body.

And Salt Cure belongs to the Rock-type high-attack move, and the additional effect of causing the Salt Cure state can also be offset by the Covert Cloak.

Therefore, it is indeed very suitable for challenging the Sunny Gym.

"Not bad, Okamoto."

"I didn't expect you to think of bringing a Covert Cloak; the level of recent challengers seems to have come up!"

After ending another Gym assessment, Qingyu nodded repeatedly with satisfaction.

Choosing the right item is also a very important part of the battle; those who can think of this naturally have the qualification to get his recognition.

However—

"Speaking of which, are there a bit too many people bringing Covert Cloaks to challenge today?"

Regarding Qingyu's question, it was Okamoto who was a bit confused.

"Teacher Qingyu, you don't know?"

Doesn't Teacher Qingyu usually brush the comments below his own Gym page?

That is much more interesting than the video comment section; he brushes it every day when he has nothing to do.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems reasonable!

The bad review rate of the Sunny Gym is so high; if I were the Gym Leader, I wouldn't want to look at it either...

"Forget it, this is not important."

Qingyu shook his head, and the look in his eyes towards Okamoto was a bit weird, making him shiver directly.

"Speaking of which, I remember Okamoto-san should also challenge next year's Champion Road, right?"

"Yes! My goal this year is to pass the Elite Four assessment and become a Champion!"

After getting Qingyu's recognition, Okamoto felt that he was extremely powerful now.

Unlike other regions, Paldea's Champion Road is not the final assessment that can only be entered after holding eight badges, but a whole set of processes including eight Gyms.

Students who enter Naranja Academy can continue to challenge the Champion title before graduation.

"So that's it."

Qingyu nodded and soon said a piece of heavy news.

"Although it hasn't been announced yet, the League should release a notice soon."

"The Sunny Gym, where I serve as the Gym Leader, will become an assessment Gym for the Champion Road next year."

"So that's it."

Okamoto actually knew about this long ago, so he didn't feel surprised.

But the next sentence instantly made him break his defense.

"Because it has become one of the eight Gyms, so—"

"The current assessment intensity should not be enough."

"Starting next year, the Sunny Gym's requirements for trainers' abilities will be increased accordingly."

"In order to get our Sunny Gym badge early, continue to work hard next year, Okamoto-san~"

Okamoto didn't know how he walked out of the Sunny Gym gate.

After hearing the information Qingyu said, his head felt like it was suddenly struck by lightning, and it was chaotic for a moment.

What is meant by assessment intensity not being enough?

The Pokémon and tactics Teacher Qingyu can take out now are already underworld enough; if it goes up another level...

He didn't even dare to think about how desperate he would be!

And now the challenge rules of the Sunny Gym are only fixed at 1v1; facing Pokémon that have already been revealed in advance, there are still many ways to target them.

But what about after being promoted to one of the eight Gyms?

It should be at least 3v3...

Not only is the cost of targeting several times higher, but even whether one can take out enough lineup depth is a problem.

Of course, there is a simpler way—

I don't care about this or that; as long as the Pokémon's strength is strong enough, just crush it!

But the problem is, can he do it?

It's definitely impossible; if he had this strength, would he still go to the comment section to copy homework...

No, such terrifying news cannot be known only by himself!

Okamoto soon came back to his senses and immediately took out his mobile phone to post a post on the school's internal platform:

【Brothers, there is internal news!

Next year we will continue to challenge the Sunny Gym on the Champion Road!

And Gym Leader Qingyu also said he wants to increase the difficulty...

Brothers, it seems we have to continue to work hard next year...】

As soon as this post came out, there was a wail below.

【Quack! I just cleared the Sunny Gym; why do I have to come again!】

【It's so difficult now; what if the intensity is increased next year?】

【I'll go delete the good review I just sent now, and wait until I clear it next year!】

【Wrong, segmented good reviews; give one star first, and the next four stars will be added next year!】

Just like this, without Qingyu knowing at all.

The good review rate of the Sunny Gym dropped sharply again, soon breaking the previous lowest record...

When he learned of this news, Qingyu was dumbfounded.

What have I done recently? ===== CHAPTER 239 =====
