—------------------—
Team Rockets has come to Kalos, and their boss is right in front of me, what should I do?
Waiting online, it's urgent.
This was Diantha's mental state at this moment.
As mentioned earlier, because the Kalos region is still quite stable on the surface, although Lysandre has a pathological and extreme ideal and is already secretly operating.
But now Lysandre has not yet revealed his hand like in the game, so Lysandre's research institution has not yet been considered a Dark Organization.
Even now, in the Kalos region, apart from small gangs like the Lumiose Gang, there are simply no difficult-to-handle Evil Organizations.
But this does not mean that Diantha does not understand the strength of Team Rockets.
Communication between regions is indeed relatively scarce, but not completely absent.
What's more, a few months ago, the Hoenn League even asked the Kalos League for help, but at that time Diantha was filming, and after learning that other regions had already sent a Champion to assist, she didn't go.
But she also paid attention to the subsequent situation.
The Hoenn League, plus a group of Champions, still couldn't take down Team Rockets, and it was even rumored that they compromised with Team Rockets.
The Hoenn League compromised with an Evil Organization!
This was enough to explain the strength of Team Rockets.
Moreover, Jenny, the Commander of the Kalos League, had just mentioned to Diantha a few days ago that the Unova and Sinnoh regional Alliances had also been infiltrated by Team Rockets.
It was simply terrifying!
Diantha was still lamenting at that time, thankfully Team Rockets hadn't come to the Kalos region, otherwise she wouldn't know what to do.
And then today, they came, didn't they?
What should I do? Should I make a move on this Team Rockets boss now? But this is in the city.
And there are so many innocent customers nearby, furthermore, am I Mammon's opponent?
Diantha's thoughts were incredibly complex at this moment, and tiny beads of sweat had appeared on her beautiful face.
She was truly sweating profusely.
To be honest, Diantha was incredibly nervous at this moment, even more nervous than when she challenged the Kalos Elite Four and ascended to the top of the Kalos region.
And Serena, at this moment, was completely unaware of Diantha's inner thoughts.
"Kanto region? That's very far from Kalos." Serena was a little curious.
"My name is Serena, I'm from Vaniville Town, I just started my journey this year, and currently I'm traveling as a Trainer."
Serena elegantly shook Mammon's hand, revealing a beautiful smile as she introduced herself.
"I'm sure Miss Serena will become an excellent Trainer." Mammon smiled.
Traveling as a Trainer, then there's no doubt it's the game version of Serena.
But that's right, judging from her serious attitude just now, she's exactly like the game version of Serena.
The protagonist Serena in the game has a serious personality and strongly dislikes unpunctual people. Kalem once mentioned that if someone is three minutes late, Serena will never wait and will leave immediately.
At the same time, Serena is extremely driven to become powerful.
Because her parents are famous, she hopes to escape their shadow and always emphasizes that her strength comes from her own experiences.
"Thank you, I'm working hard."
Hearing Mammon's words, Serena felt validated, and the smile on her delicate face was sweet.
In fact, she had already obtained eight Gym Badges and was preparing for the Lumiose City Tournament at the end of the year.
She believed that she would definitely make a splash in this competition! She even wanted to challenge the Kalos Elite Four and Miss Diantha to ascend to the top of Kalos.
But after all, nothing has happened yet, and she is just a newcomer.
Any words are not as effective as actual actions, so Mammon's pure acknowledgment at this moment was very well received by Serena.
"If you're a Trainer, I think we'll have more in common. Let me introduce you."
Mammon introduced his two companions to Serena.
"These two are both my companions, and they are also Trainers. This is Caitlin, and this is Platinum, you can also call her Platinum."
"Platinum is also a newcomer who just started her journey this year, but Platinum's strength is very strong."
Mammon introduced with a smile.
Of course, they are all powerful Trainers, and they must also be Team Rockets executives, right?
Diantha carefully observed Caitlin and Platinum upon hearing this. Now she had an impression; she seemed to have seen Caitlin's information before.
This is a top executive of Team Rockets!
As for Platinum, she really had no impression, but she certainly wasn't a simple character either.
"Hello."
Caitlin, with an elegant, faint smile, nodded to Serena in greeting.
Platinum also politely greeted Serena, looking at her with curiosity.
How to put it? Although it might sound a bit opportunistic, Platinum felt that Mr. Mammon was not someone who would casually get acquainted with others.
Mr. Mammon must value this beautiful girl quite a bit, and Platinum subconsciously felt that this Serena must be very strong!
It was an indescribable sixth sense, but Platinum always felt her sixth sense was quite accurate.
"Hello, Caitlin, Platinum, you are both so beautiful."
Serena was not introverted, but not very outgoing either, and because of her serious and meticulous personality, she actually always felt that she was quite difficult to get along with.
Suddenly meeting three friends with good first impressions made Serena feel a little... flattered?
Especially these three people, both in appearance and temperament, did not seem like ordinary people.
Serena was not proud of her appearance, but she also knew that her appearance could be considered that of a relatively outstanding beautiful girl.
But these two girls in front of her, it wasn't that she felt inferior, it was just that they were truly so beautiful.
And their temperament was also very elegant and noble, giving people a sense of déjà vu of noble young ladies who had received a high-level education.
"Thank you for the compliment~ Serena, you are also very beautiful."
Caitlin's words and actions exuded a sense of elegance, and she replied with a smile.
"Speaking of which, since you are all Trainers, Serena, would you like to have a match with Platinum?"
Mammon felt that his luck was very good today. He just arrived in Kalos and actually met Serena, so he certainly couldn't easily 'let go' of Serena.
And it just so happened that Serena's personality was serious and strong, so starting from this point was a good idea.
"A battle? Yes, but…"
Serena was naturally eager to battle. As someone who wanted to become the new Champion of Kalos, she did not fear any battle.
Especially when her opponent was a new Trainer like herself, and moreover, showing off her strength in front of new friends also gave Serena a lot of drive.
But the key was…
Serena looked towards Diantha, a little troubled.
She and Diantha knew each other, having met twice during her journey, and Diantha had also taken good care of her and given her guidance.
Meeting Diantha this time, but suddenly leaving to battle, felt a bit impolite.
"Don't worry about it. It's a kind of mysterious fate to be able to meet these travelers from other regions."
"And I'm also very interested in your battle. You don't mind if I watch, do you?"
Diantha said slowly with her characteristic kind smile.
Well, as an excellent actress, her acting skills naturally go without saying.
Diantha had already become wary in her heart. This Team Rockets boss seemed to be overly friendly towards Serena.
He wouldn't have taken a liking to Serena, would he?
No! Absolutely not!
Diantha thought very highly of Serena as a junior, because Serena's talent was extremely outstanding, an exaggerated talent that even Diantha herself felt inferior to.
Diantha had already decided that Serena was her successor.
How could Serena fall into the clutches of Team Rockets? This was absolutely unacceptable!
So Diantha decided to follow along; she wanted to protect Serena!
Serena was young after all and didn't know the wickedness of human hearts. Those who appeared kind and gentle on the surface might have some dark thoughts in their minds!
Serena looked at Mammon and the other two upon hearing this.
"Of course, that's fine. Speaking of which, I've admired Miss Diantha for a long time. Meeting you today, you are indeed as beautiful and captivating as on screen."
Mammon smiled.
"It is my honor if Miss Diantha, the Kalos Champion, can come to watch."
Platinum was still very respectful of Diantha. Well, after all, she was a good kid, and Diantha was the Champion of the Kalos region.
Diantha's smile deepened. Even though they were from Team Rockets, they were still very polite people.
It's a pity they've gone down the wrong path. I wonder if I can persuade them back to the right path?
The group settled their bill, and it's worth mentioning that Serena was the one who paid.
Mammon originally wanted to pay, but Serena said it was already agreed upon. This girl also had her stubborn side.
As the center of the Kalos region, Lumiose City naturally has no shortage of training grounds.
The group found a nearby venue.
"For the battle, Platinum, how do you want to battle?"
Serena thought for a moment and asked Platinum.
"You decide, Serena." Platinum replied with a reserved smile.
"If you're not in a hurry, then a full team battle? A full team battle is more comprehensive."
Mammon said Platinum was a very strong Trainer, and Serena really wanted to understand what 'very strong' meant.
"Hmm~ That works."
Platinum agreed. She realized that Serena's personality was, in some ways, rather assertive.
However, Platinum didn't dislike it, as long as it wasn't the kind of self-centered assertiveness.
"Then I'll be the referee."
Mammon stepped forward, while Platinum and Serena stood on opposite sides of the battleground.
"The battle between Serena and Platinum will now begin."
"The battle rules are a full 6-on-6 battle. When all six of one side's Pokémon lose their ability to battle, the other side wins."
"Battle start."
Mammon simply announced the battle rules and then slowly exited the battle arena.
"Serena."
Platinum looked towards Serena.
"Please give it your all. I am — very strong."
Platinum tilted her head slightly, holding out her Poké Ball towards Serena, revealing a reserved smile.
Although the person was still the same, and the smile was not wild but rather filled with the reserve of a lady.
However, that incredibly confident Aura Heart was so striking.
"Ah~ You too, Platinum, be careful!"
Looking at the graceful young girl Platinum opposite her, Serena's delicate face gradually became solemn.
She raised her hand, took off her pink hat, and put it into her bag. Then, she tied her loose flaxen hair into a neat ponytail.
This was her habitual action; before an important battle, she would always tie up her long hair.
"Serena is serious now."
Diantha, who knew Serena's habit, understood this point.
"Are you ready? Then I'm coming."
Platinum tightened her grip on the Poké Ball in her hand and threw it out with a forceful backhand.
This was a throwing motion she learned from Mammon, and Platinum thought it was very cool.
"My first Pokémon, it's this one!"
"Pheromosa!"
Accompanied by a proud low cry, the slender and elegant Ultra Beast Pheromosa gracefully landed, lifting its chin and arrogantly gazing at Serena.
Bellritz Platinum has come to challenge you!
