Gogoat?
The pink-haired girl’s eyes were filled with confusion.
She looked at the three Gogoat across from her, uncertainly saying, "Is the Grass Trial really about battling Gogoat?"
This is so different from what she imagined!
Although those three Gogoat looked tall and strong, they’re just Gogoat after all, just a Grass Type...
If she sent out a Pokemon with the Sap Sipper Ability, or one that counters Grass Type Pokemon, wouldn’t winning this trial be easy?
Naoki imdiately guessed what the girl was thinking.
He shook his head with a smile and said, "As a Trainer, never underestimate your opponents due to Type Matchups or ability suppression. A true master always maintains the heart of a learner."
The girl was taken aback.
That’s not sothing just anyone could say!
"May I know your na?" she used polite language.
"Of course," Naoki slightly nodded, "I’m Naoki, as you can see, the owner of this ranch."
"Naoki..." the girl silently repeated the na to herself, then nodded, "I understand, Mr. Naoki!"
Naoki didn’t say much more, simply asking, "Would you like to give it a try?"
The girl hesitated for a mont, then nodded. She pulled out her Eevee-style wallet and found 2000 League coins inside.
As she paid, she suddenly thought of sothing, "By the way, can one ticket only be used for one battle?"
Naoki shook his head, "You can challenge the Grass Trial unlimited tis until the mont you leave the ranch. Once you leave and want to challenge again, you’ll need to repurchase a ticket."
Naoki didn’t want to be greedy, especially since the Grass Trial was ant to satisfy Gogoat’s desire to battle and help them expend energy.
If it were one ticket per battle, the price would deter many challengers.
However, he wasn’t worried about anyone challenging continuously.
After all, not all Trainers and Pokemon can accept continuous defeat — only soone like Carter is the exception.
The girl nodded, "I understand."
"Then, let’s begin!"
Naoki took a step back to act as the referee.
One of the Gogoat stepped onto the battle field, eagerly looking across.
The girl sent out a large-bodied Cetitan with five sturdy horns.
The battle officially began.
Gogoat imdiately released a large amount of Grass Type Energy enveloping the entire battle field.
In response, Cetitan used Ice Spinner to counter, covering its feet with a layer of thin ice, its massive body spinning rapidly as it charged toward Gogoat.
The Grassy Terrain was destroyed by Ice Spinner, and the Grass Type Energy began to dissipate.
Seeing this, Gogoat beca angry, its eyes fixed on Cetitan, releasing an even larger wave of Grass Type Energy from its body.
The section of Grassy Terrain destroyed by Cetitan was instantly repaired.
Next, facing the approaching Cetitan, two extrely thick Vine Whips extended from behind Gogoat, fiercely whipping towards Cetitan.
With one whip, Cetitan was dazed, its entire body spinning in place like a top.
Girl: "?"
Gogoat whipped the spinning top for a while, and Cetitan beca so dizzy it knocked itself out.
"Quick, get up!" the girl shouted.
But Gogoat didn’t give her the chance.
It let out a sheep’s cry, and the two thick Vine Whips rged into one giant grass stick, fiercely pounding down on Cetitan.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by a loud crash, dust flew up on the battle field.
When everything settled, Cetitan had lost its fighting capability.
The two spectators: "???"
What the heck was that move? Was it Vine Whip? Was it the Vine Whip they knew?
The girl’s face was full of disbelief.
Looking at the Gogoat across from her, her mind replayed the entire scene just now.
That Pokemon... was it really just a Gogoat?
Naoki stepped forward and fed Berry Milk to Cetitan.
In no ti, Cetitan revived.
Naoki turned to see Gogoat with a relaxed expression and asked, "Want to continue?"
"Wait!" the girl asked incredulously, "I want to know, did Carter also battle this Gogoat that day?"
"Yes," Naoki replied truthfully, "Carter is a very determined person. He underwent grueling training with for two days, gaining invaluable experience from the Grass Trial."
The girl nodded, "I see."
She checked Cetitan’s injuries, then said, "We want to continue too."
The second battle officially began.
Still Gogoat vs. Cetitan.
This ti, the girl changed her strategy, not allowing Cetitan to use Ice Spinner; she feared Cetitan would be whipped like a top again.
"Cetitan, Body Slam!" the girl commanded.
With a loud call, Cetitan leaped up from the ground, its massive body blocking out the sun.
Simultaneously, Gogoat’s gaze locked onto Cetitan in midair.
A surge of imnse Grass Type Energy frantically gathered in its mouth.
The two male spectators sensed sothing amiss.
In the next second, they saw a huge grass blade glowing green forming in Gogoat’s mouth.
