Toxic-Protect-Substitute

Aisha and Summer said goodbye before the gate of the neighborhood.

Summer had obtained a permit to fly within the city limits during her mission, and her permit had not expired yet, so she rode Dragapult and quickly disappeared into the darkness of the night with swift speed.

After seeing Summer and Dragapult disappear within his field of vision, Aisha walked towards the direction of his home.

"Ka!"

Opening the door, Aisha re-entered his home.

"Everyone, we're home!"

Throwing out four Poké balls, Caterpie, Azurill, Charmander, and Shiny Beldum also appeared within the living room.

"Mee!"

Caterpie rolled vigorously and landed on the ground.

After that, this great senior of the team crawled into his nest with a lazy face and lay down within the soft plush nest, closing his eyes and starting to rest.

The senior began to laze around.

"Lu... Li!"

Azurill used her round tail to cushion her body, and jumped onto the chair with a single movement of energy. Her shining eyes were staring at Aisha, as if she was looking forward to the meal prepared by her master.

Little foodie.

"Ow!"

Charmander, on the other hand, ran into the courtyard, picking up the targets used by Pokémon to train their moves, and exercising the moves they were used to using.

Too self-disciplined.

"..."

Shiny Beldum was instead exceptionally well-behaved.

The silent one was originally mature and steady in nature.

Although it was said that it was not very old, however, the calmness of a Steel type Pokémon and the intelligence of a Psychic type Pokémon were both reflected in the character of shiny Beldum.

"Me-ta..."

Accompanied by a mechanical sound, shiny Beldum's sturdy head twisted around, and its icy bright red eyes scanned Aisha's home.

"Uh..."

Seeing shiny Beldum's movements, an embarrassed look spread above Aisha's face.

Previously, shiny Beldum had been growing up in Steven's hands, and both the living environment and the configuration of life must have been unquestionably excellent.

In comparison, his own rented house was poor to the extreme.

It was only natural that shiny Beldum would dislike it.

"Hey."

Aisha also looked around his room and revealed a headache expression.

It was too small.

Now that he had become a Pokémon trainer, he would definitely need to take in a lot of Pokémon in the future, so the living space would need to be large enough to accommodate the activities of these Pokémon.

Right now, Caterpie, Azurill, Charmander, and shiny Beldum were not large Pokémon, so this rental house could still accommodate everyone's activities.

In the future, after they had all completed their evolution, their sizes would not be the same.

Azumarill wasn't much of a problem.

The main thing was that after Charmander evolved into Charizard and shiny Beldum evolved into a shiny Metagross, any one of them would be able to fill up the living room of this rental house.

Caterpie was even more heavyweight after evolving into Rayquaza.

"Hey..."

Sighing, Aisha also took stock of the matter of finding a house.

"Anyway, the League gave quite a few rewards, there must be no problem finding a big house for the child to live in."

Aisha herself could be aggravated.

However, Aisha was definitely not willing to let her Pokémon be aggravated.

"Me-ta-!!!"

At this time, the voice of shiny Beldum that was filled with a mechanical flavor entered Aisha's ears, interrupting his thoughts.

"Huh?"

Aisha raised his head and saw the bright red eyes of shiny Beldum that had narrowed into a crescent moon shape.

Even though there was no expression on top of the steel head, the happiness that filled its eyes was still transmitted to Aisha.

It was happy.

Even though the living conditions were not as good as its own conditions in Devon co, shiny Beldum had no complaints.

Because... Aisha was beside it.

"Me-ta..."

Shiny Beldum's voice calmed down a bit, and its heavy, shimmering steel body floated to Aisha's rear under the drive of psychic fluctuations, and its sharp claws pressed lightly on top of the teenager's shoulders, pushing him, approaching the home.

"Ha..."

Noticing shiny Beldum's thoughts, Aisha also revealed a helpless smile.

This kid knew too much.

"Steven must have been very provincial while raising this child."

...

Hoenn region, Rustboro City.

Steven sneezed within his office at Devon co.

"Hmm?"

Rubbing his forehead, Steven showed a confused expression.

"What's going on?"

Shaking his head a little, Steven looked at the table in front of him again - on top of the table was a document filled with a list of resources that needed to be consumed in order for shiny Beldum to grow into a Metagross, which Steven had prepared as a gift for Aisha.

"Hey..."

Thinking of shiny Beldum, Steven also revealed an expression of reluctance.

Shiny Beldum was, after all, still the child of his shiny Metagross, and Steven belonged to the group that had watched that child be born and grow up until now.

Now, that child has become Aisha's Pokémon.

Although Steven is not sad, but instead happy... Happy that shiny Beldum had found a good home.

"However, shiny Beldum's temperament is not good, I wonder when Aisha-kun will be able to tame this child?"

Thinking about how the shiny Beldum was mischievous, disobedient and destructive in his own hands, Steven was also worried about Aisha's situation.

After all, Steven himself had spent a lot of time and effort, and even used a lot of steel and psychic type top secret treasures as bribes, before he was able to buy shiny Beldum's heart.

Steven could guarantee that shiny Beldum would not demolish Aisha's home.

However, when Aisha could properly command shiny Beldum in battle, Steven couldn't guarantee that...

"Aisha-kun is so powerful, the level of cultivation is just as high and deep to the extent that even Blue marveled at it, there should be techniques that I don't know, taming that child shouldn't be a difficult thing."

Steven had enough confidence in Aisha.

Well, he didn't know that shiny Beldum had already folded into a well-behaved child under Aisha's charm.

...

Kanto region, Pallet Town, Professor Oak's research institute.

"Ding!"

Red heard a special tone coming from above his cell phone, and expressionlessly picked it up, his eyes changing when he saw the content of the tone.

"Aisha posted a new live teaser... And a new video teaser?"

"Aisha?"

Blue, who was wearing a white coat and helping out, heard Aisha's name and suddenly poked his head out from the side, coming up next to Red.

"It's really Aisha's live preview and video trailer, he's back from Hoenn region?"

Finger caressing his chin, Blue also showed a curious expression.

"What did he do in Hoenn region?"

"I don't know..."

Red and Blue hadn't paid too much attention to what happened in Hoenn region.

Didn't know what was happening over there.

"The head of Dayan's Elite Four - Summer Yield previously followed the League's mission to support Hoenn region. The relationship between Aisha and Summer is not normal. Maybe he and Summer are acting together." Blue made a deduction based on the information he acquired a few days ago and said, "Lance also supported the Hoenn League, so maybe Aisha followed Summer in the battle against Groudon and Kyogre, and now that the mission is over he returned home and restarted the broadcast."

"Hmm."

Red recognized Blue's guess.

"Anyway, that Lance guy also went to the Hoenn region, so we can ask about it when he returns."

"Okay."

The duo didn't continue to obsess over the question of what Aisha had done in the Hoenn region, and instead, they were concerned about his live stream and video.

"What was the live broadcast?"

Blue also pulled out his own cell phone and slid Aisha's live stream preview, skimming through the contents of the preview, saying, "The previously agreed upon live stream... Oh, come to think of it.

"Aisha once made a promise within the live broadcast before he traveled to the Hoenn region that he would definitely launch a special tactic after he returned."

"I remembered too."

Red remained expressionless, however, a glint was revealed within his eyes.

"It's a bit interesting to look forward to."

"Good!"

Blue also straightened his white coat and made a note of the time Aisha would start the broadcast.

...

The time gradually arrived at the live broadcast, and Aisha's live broadcast room was already filled with viewers who had followed the live broadcast preview and entered the live broadcast room waiting for the anchor to start the live broadcast.

The fans sent out colorful barrages.

The scene was described as a mass of demons.

"In a hurry, in a hurry, in a hurry, where is the anchor?"

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry first, I'm even more in a hurry than you!"

"Pissed off, waited for the anchor for such a long time, we mustn't let him go off the air today."

"By the way, Instructor Ai previously said that he wasn't broadcasting live was traveling to the Hoenn area... The problem is that the Hoenn region has been haunted by the disaster of Groudon and Kyogre some time ago, what is he doing in the Hoenn region?"

"Maybe Instructor Ai went to fight against Groudon and Kyogre, didn't he say that his Caterpie could evolve into a Rayquaza?"

"Case solved, Instructor Ai is actually a trainer of Rayquaza, he's in the Hoenn region punching Groudon and kicking Kyogre!"

"Groudon vs. Kyogre... It doesn't matter, Aisha will step in."

"Worthy of being guided by the human emperor Ai, it's so awesome."

The picture of the barrage screen gradually turned into a bizarre mold.

Accompanied by the group of water fans, a dark live broadcast screen flashed with a hint of light, revealing the game screen that everyone was familiar with.

The start page of the classic matchmaking game - Pokémon: Masters - was presented on top of the screen.

After that, Aisha's handsome face also appeared in the bottom right corner of the screen.

"Good evening, everyone!"

After debugging the live broadcast's radio device and camera, Aisha rushed the screen and spoke the opening words of the live broadcast.

"I'm really sorry, guys, the anchor spent some time two days ago fighting off Groudon and Kyogre in the Hoenn region."

Hearing Aisha's words, the barrage screen was also happy.

"Instructor Ai deserves to be Instructor Ai, too strong."

"Instructor Ai show the gang your Rayquaza."

"Ai-baby I love you!"

Aisha ignored the last barrage screen and greeted Caterpie, whose body length had arrived at more than a meter, and who was clearly a behemoth, into the range of the camera.

"Look, Rayquaza!"

Holding up the Caterpie with one hand, Aisha introduced his Rayquaza towards his water friends.

"..."

Caterpie rolled its eyes, flicked its tail, and jumped to the side.

"Lulli?"

At this time, Azurill, however, curiously came up next to Aisha.

"AWSL!"

"Azurill is too cute."

"This male aquatic friend please hurry up and make room for Azurill Anchor, don't take up the camera."

"Ai-baby can, Azurill can too, fantastic..."

Azurill was quite boisterous with her cute appearance, and even attracted some perverts.

"What is Instructor Ai broadcasting live today?"

"It seems to be special tactics."

"Looking forward to it, Instructor Ai recommends some dirty tatics."

"Don't talk about it, last time I learned Instructor Ai's tactic of using Butterfree to hit sleep powder, and now I have booked a private room in the hospital, and the anchor has a conscience to visit me... Instructor Ai so dirty not afraid of being beaten by other trainers?"

In addition to these whole live barrage, there are serious viewers who are looking forward to Aisha's live broadcast.

"Instructor Ai is not afraid of being beaten, Instructor Ai can single kill all trainers."

Aisha honestly responded to the barrage's inquiries.

After that, he opened the game, logged into his account, and entered the interface of the matchmaking team.

"Today, we're live streaming a 'Toxic-Protect-Substitute' tactic, a tactic that I'll have made into a video and posted on top of the website, so everyone who's interested can learn from it." Aisha placed a Gengar within the sparring team, skillfully modulated Gengar's stats and moves, and said, "Today, at the request of a friend, we're using Gengar to mess up a wave of fish ponds."

Above the screen, a small black fat man revealed a grim smile.

"Gengar's usage is very diverse, and it can be called a jack of all trades Pokémon."

Facing the barrage, Aisha also explained some of the ways to use Gengar, saying, "For example, for the Perish Song team, or today's 'Toxic-Protect-Substitute', even though its body plate is very brittle, we can just as easily pair up a sturdy defense line with the move's cascade to assist Gengar's standing output play style."

After praising Gengar's excellence, Aisha entered the game.

A player with the ID "Electric☆Streamer" matched with Aisha.

"Iono?"

"Fan of both, Iono and Aisha!"

"Iono's super talk is here, who's Aisha?"

The barrage sailors recognized who Aisha's opponent was, and the group went into a frenzy.

"Iono?"

Aisha saw the name and also remembered who this person was...

The two were considered peers.

Iono was a gym leader in Hakko City (Levincia), one of the few large metropolises in the Paldea region, and was an expert in using electric-type Pokémon.

As a popular anchor, she was known as "Electric☆Streamer".

When it came to popularity, Iono, as a veteran anchor, was much higher than Aisha.

"Eh...Thank you for the gift from 'Uncle Iono Ioshu Qishu Strange Tree'."

Aisha looked at the top of the screen as Iono released a Luxray, and responded to the water user's barrages while maneuvering Gengar to release the move.

"Eh, I'll read you a catchphrase." Aisha cleared his throat and said, "'Qishu Qishu qi, qishu qi Qishu, qishu Shu-Qi qi, qishu qilin qi, qishu qi qilin, qishu qi qi kapu qiqi, who is Qishu, it's me Qishu.'" 

"Huh?"

Instructor Ai issued a stern reprimand for the tongue-twisting like bizarre IDs of some of the water users.

"Read it to see if you can read it clearly!"

The barrage screen brushed over a bunch of "Hahahahahahahaha!" .

"I see, Aisha is the person in the middle of strange trees."

"I forgot about the front, I forgot about the back, anyway, Instructor Ai and Iono didn't appear together, solid!"

The favorite anchors had inexplicably started a link-up using Pokémon: Masters, and the viewers watching the live broadcast were naturally happy.

This happiness lasted until Gengar used the alternation of Substitute, Toxic, and Protect to dirty up Iono's Luxray.

Luxray was consumed by Gengar from full blood to defeat.

After that, Gengar did the same thing again, dirtying up Iono's Bellibolt and Mismagius.

When Iono sent in Mismagius, Aisha even mocked the difference between Mismagius and Gengar... Then he accomplished the feat of stringing the three together.

The barrage screen was filled with question marks.

The water users looked dumbfounded.

Iono's Pokémon had been madly teased by Aisha's Gengar throughout the entire game, falling to the effects of the poison one after another, while Gengar blocked all of his opponent's attacks by alternating between Protect and Substitute.

A string of three should have been a source of pride.

However, this battle was placed in Aisha's live stream, and the audience watching it clenched their teeth.

"It's too dirty..."

"This 'Toxic-Protect-Substitute' is dirtier than Butterfree's Sleep Powder."

"How could there be such a weird set?"

"It's not that the setup is weird, it should be that Instructor Ai's heart is too dirty!"

Before the computer, ending the battle, Aisha didn't care about barrage's accusations.

"There are many Pokémon that can use this tactic. Gengar is actually not the most suitable Pokémon. If you are willing to imitate it, Instructor Ai actually recommends that you choose some Pokémon that are thick enough or can learn recovery moves to imitate."

Aisha gave some examples for his water friends.

"For example, Venusaur, Gliscor type of Pokémon, or you can choose some regular Grass and Poison type Pokémon if the conditions are not favorable."

At this time, a Master Ball crossed the screen, and a paragraph was reflected in Aisha's eyes.

"Although this tactic is excellent to watch, however, when utilized in a match, it still requires the trainer to have full reaction ability, the anchor is indeed an excellent trainer... If you want, we can continue to spar."

Aisha revealed a surprised expression after seeing the ID of this barrage.

"Thank you 'Electric☆Streamer' for the Master Ball, thank you boss."

Now the opposite side had come to the door.
