  Johtion, Goldenrod City.

  "Bang!"

  A girl with short pink hair tied into two pigtails smmed her fist oable, clearly frustrated.

  "This is so dirty!"

  "How a Pokémon like Skarmory be this annoying!"

  Whitney didn’t seem to realize that her Attract + Rollout Miltank was a nightmare for rookie trainers.

  Grittieeth, Whitney pulled out her phone and called Falkhe ior in Violet City.

  "Falkner, was that at you just now? Why does the strategy feel so familiar?"

  Spikes are a basic strategy in the Master League, and many trainers are skilled at using them.

  For example, Koga of the Elite Four is known for his Toxic Spikes.

  Brock from Pewter City has also showcased strategies involving Rob and Stealth Rock.

  But this "Spikes + Whirlwind" Skarmave Whitney a strong sense of déjà vu.

  Isn’t this Falkner’s Skarmory?!

  "Pying games during work hours? I’m rep you to the Pokémon Association!"

  Oher end of the lihe good-natured Falkner chuckled awkwardly. "Calm down, Whitney. I think you might have the wrong person."

  "Who else but you would use Skarmory and a Spikes strategy so well?"

  "Huh? Maybe it’s a Steel-type Gym Leader from anion. Or perhaps a master of the Spikes strategy… Think about it! I’m busy hunting down Team Rocket. When would I have time to py games?"

  Whitney paused for a moment, as if realizing something. "Hmm…"

  That pyer was from the Touran Region, wasn’t it?

  Ugh, that strategy was so familiar, and it was executed even smoother than Falkner’s!

  "You ran into a Spikes Team? Hahaha, of course you’d lose with your brain!" Falkner ughed heartily.

  "Huh?" Whitney’s grip on her phoightened, a vein popping on her forehead.

  "Uh, the signal’s bad. Let’s talk ter."

  Sensing danger, Falkner quickly hung up.

  Whitook a deep breath and opehe repy of the battle, carefully analyzing it.

  "Hmm… My ands weren’t the problem. It’s just that his team position was better."

  Whitney scratched her head in frustration. "Ugh, why do people have to use such tryhard teams for training?"

  If Whitney had the same team, she was fident she wouldn’t necessarily lose to Natsume-sensei.

  But… the oppo seemed to have mastered the essence of the Spikes Team, with a team position perfectly suited for the Spikes strategy.

  "This is just annoying!" Whitney muttered through gritted teeth. "What kind of master spends all day figuring out how to climb the ranks?"

  In Pokémon: Battle, pyers usually choose Pokémon that match their team position to train their preferred strategies.

  Someone like Natsume-sensei, who switches teams for every strategy, is incredibly rare.

  Unless you have an exceptional uanding of team building, it’s impossible to have such a diverse roster.

  "This guy… is he really a leader from the Touran Region?"

  Whitney frowned, scrolling through Natsume-sensei’s battle records—nothing but wins.

  Some matches against Sun Teams even ended with a fwless 6:0 victory.

  And the user of that Sun Team was her than the pool-pying kid, Gold…

  Whitney’s eyes widened.

  The image of that mischievous boy popped into her head, and Whitney houghtfully.

  "If it’s Gold… getting swept isn’t that surprising, huh?"

  Meanwhile, in the Pokémon Day Care oskirts of Goldenrod City, Gold sneezed.

  "Ugh! No way, I’ve been sneezing so much tely!"

  Gold scratched his head and zily answered his phone. "Moshi moshi? Who’s this?"

  "It’s me, yrandma!"

  "Wrong number, bye!"

  "It’s me, Whitney from Goldenrod City!"

  "Oh, you aski? Give me Miss Mary’s LINE, and I might sider it!"

  "Stop joking around! Do you know Natsume-sensei from the Touran Region? How strong is he?"

  Natsume-sensei?

  Gold rested his on his hand, picturing the ruthless group leader.

  This guy… he’s probably no joke.

  After all, even I couldn’t beat him…

  "Whoa, Natsume-sensei is something else!"

  Gold said with a serious tone.

  "Even Red-senpai is one of his followers. Brock even said he’s a top-tier breeder!"

  "R-really?"

  Whitney’s voice softened.

  If that’s the case… it makes sehat his Spikes strategy is eveer than Falkner’s, right?

  "You don’t believe me? You check out the group. It’s full of top-tier masters."

  Gold clicked his tongue. "If Natsume-sensei hadn’t begged me to join, I wouldn’t have even sidered it!"

  "Huh?" Whitney’s eyes sparkled. "A… master group? Red-senpai is in it too?!"

  "Yeah, pretty impressive, huh? I think so too."

  Gold o himself.

  After a long silence, Whitney finally spoke in a barely audible whisper.

  " you… add me… to the group…?"

  "What was that? Speak up!"

  "I said, you add me to the group?!"

  Gold rubbed his slightly dazed ears and zily replied, "With your skills, you’re still a bit g, aren’t you?"

  "Do you wao e to the Day Care ale this in person?"

  "Fine…" Gold waved his hand. "100 signed photos of Miss Mary, and I’ll add you to the group."

  "Really?"

  "Of course!"

  "Alright, I’ll go find Mary!"

  …

  Natsume, who had just fireaming, g his phone in surprise.

  "Huh? A new member in the group?"

  Whitney: "Ahhh!!"

  Whitney: "It’s Red-senpai! The real one!"

  Whitney: " I add you on LINE, senpai? I’ve been a fan for so long!"

  Yellow: "(○｀ 3′○)"

  Lorelei: "Ara, how iing~!"

  Natsume scratched his head.

  Well, Red’s harem group is firmed!

  The Spikes Team stream had a det response, and Whitney as a Gym Leader provided det material.

  If it’s not enough, I always edit in a few more matches with Gold ter!

  In just oernoon, the system’s BP points increased by over a thousand.

  If exged for berries, the little ones’ food expenses for week are covered.

  [Remaining BP Points: 2400]

  Eevee had been lying on Natsume’s p, watg him py games all afternoon.

  Yawning, Eevee zily jumped down ao py on the running wheel.

  As the su and dusk deepened, Natsume, wearing an apron, prepared a rge table of food, waiting for Hauo e home.

  But it wasn’t until the food was almost cold that Haunter excitedly slipped through the door.

  With a thud, it tossed a card onto the table.

  Haunter floated over to the fridge, its hand phasing through the door to grab a soda.

  "Haunter~~(?′?`?)"

  Haunter looked blissful.

  Natsume, looking puzzled, took off his apron and g Hauhen picked up the card from the table.

  In an instant, his eye twitched.

  [Annual VIP Membership Card]

  "Huh?" Natsume’s seingled.

  You went off to train by yourself, and evely got a membership card?!
