Chapter 93 We, the Four Giants of Jade Rainbow, will teach this gym a lesson!
"Report! The Gym Leader of Macha Gym is overpowered! He's too strong!"
"What do you mean he's good at using Steel-type Pokémon? When I challenged him, I encountered a Ghost-type. Good grief
, he just..." "You encountered Gengar, which is lucky. Do you know what I encountered? I encountered a Ferrothorn, it was disgusting! It threw an Invisible Rock right away, I couldn't attack, and I couldn't not attack, it was so difficult."
"Huh? When I fought, I clearly encountered an Electivire, which knocked my Pidgeot away with one punch. There aren't that many tactics involved."
"Family members, who understands? I just went to check out the gym's strength. I just took out my precious Pokémon to battle, and before I could even finish giving the commands, the Gym Leader had his Pokémon throw an Invisible Rock. At first, I didn't know what the effect was, but when he released Pidgeotto, I was crying..."
"Nonsense! He's such a great gym leader, and you've framed him like this! In my opinion, the Macha Gym is even stronger than the Cerulean Gym; they're about equal. Anyone who criticizes the Macha Gym is just messing with me."
"..."
Bai Yu leaned back on the sofa, scrolling through his Pokédex.
It was full of information about the Macha Gym. Through his efforts, the Macha Gym had gained considerable popularity throughout the Kanto region.
Especially with Bai Yu choosing increasingly diverse Pokémon, the number of trainers coming to challenge him was increasing daily. Ahong before, and Kukui afterward, were typical examples.
Of course, Bai Yu would generously give away gym badges to trainers with decent strength; the Indigo League's prestige was enhanced by their participation. After
so many matches, Bai Yu hadn't seen many trainers improve.
It was still the same old turn-based game: you hit me, I retaliate.
"Little Bai, what are you looking at so happily?"
Sabrina leaned closer. There weren't many people challenging the gym today.
It was a far cry from usual. She thought Bai Yu was improving his Pokémon's strength.
She didn't expect him to be hiding in the reception room, browsing the Pokédex.
"These challengers are really interesting."
"He even said that my Pokémon is Geodude, and its strength is about the same as the Pewter Gym."
Bai Yu pointed at the comment in the Pokédex and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He had used Geodude, but his second Pokémon was Swampert.
Bai Yu remembered that challenger. When he saw Swampert appear, everyone was stunned.
The type difference was huge, and the strength was completely different.
That match was a one-sided massacre, with no room for resistance.
"Is this the Macha Gym?"
"That's the Gym Leader. Did you know that the Rainbow Four have come?"
"Hmm?!"
Four trainers of different heights and builds walked in at the gym entrance.
They were shouting about wanting to compete, their eyes filled with disdain for the gyms.
Since leaving Celadon City, they had encountered countless trainers, all of whom they defeated with overwhelming strength. To rival the Kanto Elite Four, they even named their team the Celadon Four Giants.
Taking the Kanto Elite Four title was their duty!
"..."
The receptionist was almost asleep when she opened her eyes to see four boys with different hair colors walk in.
They looked... a bit troublesome.
After all, what respectable person would dye their hair in all sorts of colors, style it in a bun, and call themselves one of the Rainbow Four Giants?
The receptionist had thought the thugs in Marcha City were already outrageous enough, but compared to the Rainbow Four Giants, they were worlds apart.
Only the rumored Team Rocket members could compare to these four teenagers.
Bai Yu also came up upon hearing this and fell into deep thought upon seeing them.
He had seen similar scenes in the anime before, with random passersby suddenly appearing and claiming to have the strength to rule. Bai Yu had previously thought it was just an anime effect and hadn't paid much attention to it. He hadn't seen anything like it in all the time he had been running the gym.
Now, these Rainbow Four Giants had shattered Bai Yu's understanding.
It turned out that such beings existed in the Pokémon world.
It seemed he was still too ignorant. But it was the Pokémon world; how could he judge it based on ordinary knowledge? These strange hair colors might just be the most real and accurate scene in this world.
"I am Bai Yu, the Gym Leader of Macha City. I wonder..."
Bai Yu stepped into the arena, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted.
The person who interrupted Bai Yu was a chubby boy with dyed blond hair, who looked particularly arrogant.
"Enough nonsense! It's rumored that the Gym Leader here is very strong. I, Gian, will test this Gym's strength today and see if it's as powerful as the rumors say!"
"I, Suneo, also want to try..."
"And I, Nobita!"
"..."
Bai Yu didn't know what to say for a moment. He took a small step forward and looked at the four people in front of him.
They were completely different from the four figures he remembered.
His heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled. Bai Yu had thought that the four of them had also entered this world.
But then he thought, those four wouldn't have such an outrageous hair color. After all, they were all kind-hearted people; how could they do something so outrageous?
"Hurry up and start the match! Watch me, Gian, defeat this mere Gym all by myself."
The trainer named Gian stepped forward.
He held a Poké Ball in his hand, eager to start the match.
The remaining giants of Celadon City also departed, leaving the arena for Gian to compete.
The referee, standing to the side, announced the rules of the match, raising his flag.
"The Gym battle with the Macha Badge as the stakes begins. The challenger is Gian from Celadon City."
"The battle rules are 2vs2. Gym Leader Bai Yu goes first. As the Gym Leader, you cannot change your Pokémon during the battle. The match ends when one side's Pokémon is completely unable to battle."
Gian gave a light snort and threw his Poké Ball without speaking.
A flash of white light, and a stone-like, spherical Pokémon appeared on the field.
It was Gian's main Pokémon, Graveler.
"Graveler?" Bai Yu was taken aback, then threw his Pokémon as well.
With a roar, Aggron appeared on the field.
"What kind of Pokémon is that?"
"I don't know, it's not even in my Pokédex. It looks really strong."
"It's not in my Pokédex either. It does look pretty strong, but how could it possibly be a match for Gian's Golem?"
"Gian, you have to beat that Tinker and uphold the dignity of the four giants of Celadon!"
Outside the arena, the remaining four giants cheered for Gian.
They had traveled all the way from Celadon City, encountering and battling so many trainers. Only
when challenging the Fuchsia Gym was the difference in strength truly 'slight'. They lost by a hair's breadth. Could this Gym Leader be stronger than any of the eight Gym Leaders? "What Tinker? All show and no substance." "Glem, use Rollout!" Gian completely disregarded the Pokémon. The Golem roared, its limbs wrapped around itself, its body curled up, and it rolled forward. A Rock-type Rollout. The more times it rolled, the stronger the power. "Roll?" "Aggron, grab it." Bai Yu looked at the Gravestone and, the moment he saw it, he had already discerned the true level of the four giants.
Aggron stared at the charging Graveler, then grabbed it with both hands, forcefully pinning the rolling Graveler to the ground.
Graveler tried to accelerate, but couldn't gain any speed. When it finally stopped and looked up at Aggron, the scene was incredibly awkward.
"What kind of move is that? It actually caught my ace?"
Gian's eyes widened in disbelief.
This was the first time he'd encountered a battle of this scale, and Aggron had caught his Graveler so easily?
"Throw it."
Aggron lifted Graveler high above its head and hurled it forward.
Graveler flew high into the air, staring blankly at the ceiling, completely bewildered. Even it didn't understand what had happened.
When it finally reacted, it crashed heavily to the ground, scrambling to its feet, its face dazed.
"They're fighting in such a bizarre way, this gym must be really strong."
Gian was still a bit confused, racking his brains for a long time without coming up with a move like this.
"Gollum, keep using Rollout!"
Gian dismissed his own thoughts; his Golem was invincible.
This Rollout move had defeated countless trainers, how could it possibly lose here?
Golem also reacted, glaring at the Aggron before it.
Its entire body curled up, continuously rolling towards the field, using this method to increase the damage of its Rollout Strike.
It has to be said, Golem was quite resourceful.
"Iron Tail," Bai Yu said nonchalantly.
Aggron's tail emitted a silvery-white light, exceptionally dazzling.
Golem's speed was already waning, forcibly changing direction and charging towards Aggron.
Its speed continuously increased, even kicking up a small cloud of dust on the field.
Graveler charged forward, and Aggron lashed out with its tail, the steel-formed tail lashing out and slamming into Graveler's body. The powerful force sent Graveler flying,
forcibly changing direction and hurtling towards the wall.
"Graveler, stop...stop!"
Gian cried out, his face paling.
Graveler wanted to stop, but its speed was simply too great.
Even if it wanted to, it couldn't. Graveler
crashed into the wall with a deafening explosion, creating a thick fog.
When the fog cleared, Graveler was embedded in the wall, its eyes glazed and unable to battle.
"My Graveler! That damned MetalGreymon, it's so strong!"
Gian cried, tears welling in his eyes. His powerful Graveler had been utterly defeated.
In the end, it couldn't stop and crashed into the wall, losing its ability to battle.
How hateful!
If it weren't for the Iron Tail used by that Tinker, his Graveler wouldn't have crashed into the wall with such a powerful impact.
It all stemmed from that Tinker.
Gian took out a Poké Ball to retrieve the Graveler, then pulled out a second Pokémon.
The battle resumed.
This battle ended even faster.
Gian didn't even see the match before losing in a daze.
"Gian lost so badly!" Nobita swallowed hard, sensing something was wrong.
"So strong! Is this really a Gym Leader? The Gym we challenged before wasn't nearly as strong as this one."
"What are you saying? How can you boost someone's morale while diminishing your own? I'll take the second match."
Suneo said, walking towards the arena.
A moment later…
"How is this possible… How can you be so strong!"
Suneo had only been on the arena for less than five minutes when the match ended.
His Pokémon used only one move from start to finish.
Suneo knew his strength was inferior to Gian's; after all, he was the second-in-command of the Rainbow Four Giants, how could he lose so easily? "
What a joke!
"
Bai Yu had figured out that these two were a bunch of clowns.
It had been a long time since he'd encountered such a bunch of clowns. He should have used Toxapex in the battle.
He could have had some fun. Aggron, too, was completely reckless.
"How dare they insult us like this!" Nobita said, then grabbed his Poké Ball and went up
to battle. Musugi, who was following behind, had no choice but to join in.
Naturally, they lost, and lost decisively.
"Want to come again, Rainbow Four?" Bai Yu asked with concern.
The entire field was riddled with craters, all the work of Aggron.
Of course, the Rainbow Four wouldn't have been able to create such a mess without the help of their own.
"Pah! Didn't the internet say this gym is as strong as the Cerulean Gym?"
"Damn it, I'm going to catch those guys online and give them a good beating."
"What a trash gym, I've never even seen the Pokémon they use."
The four giants of Rainbow City each had their own opinion, all believing that the online information was inaccurate and that Bai Yu's Pokémon was the problem. They didn't even recognize Aggron, which was why they lost so thoroughly.
After all, they hadn't lost a single opponent along the way.
How could they lose to the gym that was considered the weakest online?
That's absolutely impossible!
They must have been careless, absolutely...
"Little Bai, those four are really something." Watching the four leave, even Sabrina, who didn't usually smile, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
They were clearly weak, but they insisted they hadn't lost a single match.
"They really are something."
Bai Yu also walked up with a smile.
There are trainers like that in the Pokémon world.
Their mouths are incredibly stubborn, even more so than their strength.
He didn't know how these four got together, this was much more interesting than the Team Rocket trio.
However…
after being in this world for so long, I haven't seen those three clowns from Team Rocket.
I didn't see them on the Saint Teanu either.
They should show up soon, after all, they're the 'true' protagonists!
I'll guarantee a sufficient amount of updates every day.
I'll probably do a big update later depending on the situation.
