Chapter 96 - 96. Fake Gym Leader

We hit 200 Power Stones. Like I promised, here is an extra chapter. For every 100 Power Stones, I'm going to release an extra chapter.

————————————

Leaving Lake Lucid and the Nurse Joy over there, Ash and his party crossed through a small desert area and finally arrived at Olivine City!

So the first thing the group set out to do is to challenge the Olivine City Gym!

It should be said that this is indeed worthy to represent a Steel-type gym. The very first impression of the Olivine Gym from an outsiders perspective is that it is very tough. It is hard to imagine that the Gym Leader in this Gym is actually a beautiful young lady!

But that's the simple truth!

"Is anyone here? I'm Ash from Pallet Town, I come here to challenge the Gym!" Because the door was closed, Ash had no choice but to loudly knock on the door.

After a while, with a "Welcome", the door opened.

"Can you please come inside? And then please go straight forward without asking any questions!"

The lights were not turned on, but you can still see through something's here and there because of the light coming from the gate. The pillars and walls here are made of real steel.

"The Pokémon used here must be very strong, there is such a strong wall!" Brock judged.

Hearing this, Ash smiled, "My Pokémon are also very strong now!"

As of now, most of his Pokémon have now completed their evolution, and each of them is very huge and powerful.

Now he is also accompanied by the Pseudo-Legendary of the Johto Region, Tyranitar!

Walking forward in a straight line as instructed, Ash and his party soon came to a second door. The door was opened with a strong push from Ash. The person who just spoke was already waiting for them inside the door.

As the room lights up, the sight suddenly opens up in front of everyone. It is indeed a Steel-type Gym. The metalic style is very tough, but because the space is very wide and the view is unobstructed, it feels very professional from a watchers perspective.

"I am Jasmine, the Gym Leader of the Olivine City Gym! I'm a beautiful and strong trainer, I warn you!" The speaker said out loud.

The voice sounded not that much younger than Molly.

'Who gave you the confidence to say that you are a Gym Leader? You should know that lying like this is an actual crime against the Alliance!'

'Do you think that being an Region Gym Leader is just play thing? Or do you think all of us are fools?'

'Look at Brock, he didn't even react to you, even though Jasmine is known for being beautiful and a little shy unlike you.'

Ash wanted to say all this but didn't bother to expose her just yet, thinking that if they started their battle, the real Jasmine would show up sooner or later!

"The number of Pokémon that can be used is three, okay?" This "Jasmine" directly announced the rules of the battle without any official referee. After Ash agreed to her deal, the battle "officially" began.

"Go ahead, Onix!"

This Onix sent by "Jasmine" has a very shiny body and honestly looks very strange.

Ash chuckled, "Stomp through to victory, Tyranitar!"

When the brutal beast appeared, it frightened the little girl opposite to him, "Um hey, why don't you use a Water-type Pokémon?"

Water-type restrains both the Rock-type and Ground-type that Onix has. Is this not common sense? Why not use it?

"Sorry, I don't have any Water-type Pokémon with me!" Ash chuckled as he lied through his teeth.

Brock and Misty also understood what was going on at this point, and couldn't help laughing, "Ash is getting worse and worse at this. He is probably going to bully a child and make them cry!"

Molly cheered for her older brother as she still didn't realize that this was not the real Jasmine and it was just a child around her age acting as Jasmine, "Brother, come on, Tyranitar, come on!"

"Tyranitar, you know what to do, Hyper Beam!"

The first move he used was a Ultimate Move, the powerful Hyper Beam that once caused great destruction in the forest, now it blasted towards Onix!

Ash is really merciless!

"Onix, get out of the way!"

This young girl is pretty good for her age, at least she can react and give orders, even though it's too late for that.

How could Onix avoid Tyranitars Hyper Beam of all things, Onix was hit directly and fall to the ground without being able to do anything!

"That's it!"

A shout came from outside the battlefield, the steel door opened, and a beautiful young lady in a white and pink dress appeared. There is a Magnemite on her shoulder, which perfectly blends in with her whole temperament.

Brock's eyes immediately filled with hearts, "She's so beautiful, and the Magnemite on the shoulders fits perfectly with her!"

"I'm really sorry, but this battle has to be cancelled!" This young lady wanted to stop the battle as soon as she came up.

However, Ash also shouted, "The battle has just begun. There is no reason to stop in a three-on-three battle! What do you think this is, a child's play?" Ash was just acting a little since he is a little disappointed that it was over so quickly and because he and Tyranitar couldn't increase their Bond Values.

"You?" Ash's reluctance made her a tad bit angry, but after all, it was her own fault, so she could only explain patiently to him, "An Official Gym Battle must be with the Gym Leader of that Gym to count as effective!"

"I am Jasmine, and I am the Gym Leader of the Olivine City Gym! That little girl is the trainee Trainer of our Gym, come back here you troublemaker!"

This is of course the rule that trainers must follow if they want to get the Gym Badge.

"So, I want you to apologize!" Ash said sternly but just wanted to enjoy a little at the little girls dilemma.

"I apologize to you as a Gym Trainee for deceiving challengers like you and pretending to be the Gym Leader while I'm not! I apologize to you for using unauthorized application of waterproof wax on Onix and the serious cheating during the battle!"

Ash said with a smile, "Chill, I was just joking a little. There was really no need for all that. Anyway, I forgive you!"

"But still, a Pokémon Trainer has to train their Pokémon day and night, work hard with their Pokémon, and make progress together. This is the kind of bond that one requires for being truly strong!"

Ash's words made Jasmine completely unable to refute and instead nodded along with what he said and also making her want add in her two cents but didn't dare to interrupt his words!

In addition to that, she also noticed that Ash was being accompanied by a little girl who was maybe just a little older than Janina.

She could understand that Ash was teaching this girl by words and deeds what a Pokémon Trainer should do! In comparison, she was far behind, but Janina would do such a thing when she had her own responsibility!

"Ash..." Brock's and Misty's eyes changed again when they looked at Ash.

Unknowingly, the boy who couldn't even command a Pikachu right has grown into such a powerful and knowledgeable Trainer!

"You're right!" Looking at Ash's eyes, Jasmine lowered her head, "Janina!"

"Yes!" Janina was already stunned by Ash's words just now, but she quickly reacted and came over and stood in front of Ash.

"I'm once again very sorry that I lied to you!"

The attitude of admitting one's own mistake was quite a admirable thing in Ash's opinion (mine too), and of course Ash didn't really intend to argue with her so he just accepted it swiftly.

"Miss, why did you put waterproof wax on that Onix?" Molly came over with a Jigglypuff on her head, "Don't be afraid, Big Brother is very kind!"

Facing this young girl who was a little older than herself, Janina quickly relaxed, "I applied it very hard, not sparing any place! Using this, my Onix will become immune to Water-type attacks."

"But this is really cheating. Brother said that those who cheat are not good children and will become ugly!" Molly looked like a little adult while talking!

Hearing that cheating would make you look ugly, she became nervous, "But Teacher taught me to talk to Pokémon properly and understand its abilities! That's why I thought of removing Onix's biggest weaknesses!"

Hearing this, Jasmine also covered her face. She came over and stood next to Janina, "You still don't know anything about what I thought you!"

Jasmine looked at Ash and saw that his face was gentle and no longer pretended to be angry, "Your name is Ash, right? Thank you, you are a very respectable Trainer!"

"It doesn't matter, I'm just making sure she realizes her mistakes and that she doesn't make then again." Ash said wisely.

Ash smiled and stopped pursuing what had happened just now, letting the two girls whisper and communicate with each other, "Can I challenge the Gym now?"

Hearing this, Jasmine changed her previous appearance and apologized again, "I'm really sorry, I really can't do a Gym Battle at this time!"

"Sparkle's health is not good at this moment, I can't leave her side right now!" After receiving a call, she hurriedly said goodbye to everyone and left, leaving only Janina behind to entertain everyone here.

Seeing the two little girls chatting happily, Ash smiled and said, "Molly, go and wipe off the waterproof wax on Onix's body with Janina, okay? Janina, you should also reflect on it!"

"Ok!"

"Yes!"
