"Why did the leader of the Varidian Gym suddenly lower the challenge standard?" Gary asked knowingly to see if he could find out about Mewtwo.
"I don't know about this, but according to the challenger, Mr. Giovanni recently got a good Pokémon and wanted to test the strength of that Pokémon. As long as Mr. Giovanni's other Pokémon are defeated, he will send the newly captured Pokémon to fight." Joy said.
"What Pokémon is that?"
"I don't know. According to the challenger's description, the Pokémon is wearing armor and is a Pokémon with Psychic Attribute. It doesn't look like a Pokémon from the Kanto region. It should be a Pokémon from other regions." Joy judged.
At present, the Pokémon Pokédex is not fully collected. People in the Kanto region have a low understanding of Pokémon from other regions. For Pokémon that they have never seen, they will only think that it is a Pokémon from other regions, but they have never seen it.
"Gary, don't you know "?" Sabrina asked curiously when she heard that it was a Psychic Pokémon.
"There are many types of Psychic Pokémon, and the opponent is wearing armor. I can't really tell what kind of Pokémon it is. I can only know it by seeing it." Gary said.
"I'll go with you." Sabrina said.
On the way here, Sabrina heard Gary say that the challenge limit of the Varidian Gym is very high. Only Trainers who have obtained more than 7 badges can challenge it. Even if they are qualified, they still need to make an appointment. The requirements is bigger than Sabrina's Gym, which makes Sabrina curious.
"Okay, but I'll go replace the Pokémon first." Gary said.
When they came to the teleporter, Gary dialed Professor Oak's number and the call was quickly connected.
"Gary, where are you traveling?" Professor Oak asked.
Professor Oak knew Gary's travel progress very well, and he also knew that Gary had collected all the badges and could come back at any time.
"We are now in Varidian City. I will come back with Sabrina after getting the Varidian Gym Badge." Gary said.
When mentioning Sabrina, she naturally stood behind Gary.
"Oh, Sabrina, hello." Professor Oak also greeted Sabrina.
"Hello, Professor Oak." Sabrina also responded with a smile.
Although Sabrina was aloof, she was still very polite when she saw her elders.
"Grandpa, please help me teleport the four Pokémon Blastoise, Rhyperior, Aerodactyl, and Scizor. Gary said.
"You want these Pokémon, they are all your main Pokémon. Do you need to bring so many to challenge a gym?" Professor Oak asked in confusion. He knew very well which Pokémon Gary's main Pokémon were. These four Pokémon were the highest level Pokémon in Gary's hands.
Even if the Varidian Gym is stronger, it is not necessary to send out all the main Pokémon.
"I heard that the gym leader of the Varidian Gym captured a very strong Pokémon, and no one has won until now, so I want to give it a try. " Gary said.
" Really? Then you better work hard. I'll get your Pokémon. " Professor Oak said.
So, Gary teleported all four Pokémon except Zapdos and Alakazam to Professor Oak's Laboratory.
After getting the Poké Ball, Gary went to the public room behind the Pokémon Center, opened the five Poké Balls, and released his Pokémon.
[LV53 Blastoise /quasi-legend]
[LV51 Rhyperior /quasi-Elite]
[LV50 Aerodactyl / Elite]
[LV44 Alakazam / Elite]
[LV45 Scizor / Elite]
Gary mainly looked at Scizor's level. After not seeing him for a while, Scizor's level reached 45. After all, it was the first batch of Pokémon that followed Gary, and the level was still good.
Compared with Ash's Charizard.
From this, it can be seen that Ash is still a bit behind Gary in training Pokémon.
Gary walked to Next to Blastoise and Rhyperior, he placed his hands on them and taught them the skill Dynamic Punch.
Then he came to Alakazam and Scizor and spent 11 intermediate Rare Candy to upgrade their levels to 50.
Six Pokémon above level 50 should be able to compete with that Mewtwo.
"Scizor!"
"Alakazam!"
Scizor and Alakazam also felt that their strength suddenly became much stronger, and they looked at Gary in shock.
They had certainly felt this feeling before, but it was when they were level 27. They hadn't experienced it for a long time, but they didn't expect to experience it again this time.
"I can only help you upgrade to this level for now, but later, I will help you become stronger."
Gary said: "Tomorrow's gym battle will encounter an unprecedented strong enemy. Rest well today and fight with all your strength tomorrow.
The 5 Pokémon nodded.
They didn't know what kind of Rival it was, but they were very curious. The Pokémon that attracted Gary's attention must be abnormal.
"Come in and have a good rest. "
After explaining the matter, Gary also collected all the Pokémon. He took a good rest today and challenged the Viridian Gym tomorrow.
...!
Early the next morning.
Gary and Sabrina set out for the entrance of the Viridian Gym together. As soon as they arrived at the entrance, they saw three familiar figures, naturally Ash and his three companions.
Gary was quite surprised. He thought he would be separated from Ash and his companions this time, but he didn't expect to meet them at the entrance of the Viridian Gym again.
"Gary!"
"Sabrina!"
Ash and his companions also saw Gary and Sabrina, and were very surprised. They didn't expect to meet again.
"Isn't this Ash? Aren't you staying on Cinnabar Island?" Gary said.
It has been more than half a month since they met on Cinnabar Island. Gary has disrupted the timeline. Even if Ash wants to get the Cinnabar Badge, it will probably waste some time and it won't be as smooth as in the original plot.
"I have already defeated Blaine and got the Badge. Now I only need the last Badge to be eligible to participate in the Indigo Plateau Conference. " Ash said.
"You are really slow in collecting badges." Gary complained.
"You…" Ash had nothing to say. After all, he saw Gary had 10 badges on the cruise ship last time. He may have collected more badges after not seeing him for a while.
"I have almost challenged all the gyms in Kanto Region. Now I only have the badge of the Varidian Gym."
Gary said: "It is said that the owner of the Varidian Gym has captured a very strong Pokémon. I will beat that Pokémon until it loses its combat ability. It will be convenient for you to challenge it later. This way, you will have a higher chance of getting a badge."
"I don't need your help. I can beat that Pokémon myself." Ash doesn't need Gary to help him. He has always regarded Gary as a strong rival.
"That's not up to you. Sabrina, let's go in." Gary took Sabrina into the gym.
