I was resurrected and became a Ghost-type Pokémon Master.

Chapter 274 Destiny Wheel

Because the league no longer accepts challenges from gyms.

Zoroark skillfully pulled out his membership card, opened a battle arena, and stood at opposite ends with Sukuna.

A staff member on duty at the dojo came over to act as referee.

Looking at Zoroark and Sukuna, he felt that the two guys looked somewhat familiar, but he still dutifully raised the red flag in his hand.

"Please release your Pokémon."

Zoroark ran his fingers over the dozen or so Poké Balls on his belt, communicating with the Pokémon inside and asking who wanted to battle.

It then received more than a dozen responses from people volunteering to join the fight.

Zoroark thought for a moment, then selected a Poké Ball with a grass leaf symbol and threw it into the field.

"Go, Rowlet, this time we'll fight side by side."

The Poké Ball bounced off the ground, and a round, chubby little bird flew out, hovering slightly in the field before stopping in front of Zoroark, looking at Sullair on the other side.

Su Lun looked at the cursed doll that followed him: "Prove your potential to me. This is your entrance test."

The cursed doll paused for a moment, seemingly somewhat surprised.

Then a hint of tension appeared in his eyes.

Su Lun ignored all of that and reached out to Zoroark: "Go, Cursed Doll."

Upon hearing this, the cursed doll, entirely gray with a metallic yellow zipper on its mouth, floated into the arena. Its red eyes, fixed on Zoroark and Rowlet, flickered with a strange light.

Zoroark frowned slightly as it looked at the combination of the Destiny and the Cursed Doll opposite it; it felt that this combination was somewhat different.

The synergy between trainers and Pokémon seems to be very low.

However, since the battle hasn't started yet, you can't tell anything just by looking at them.

And it has nothing to do with it; as long as the opponent can help its younger siblings improve, that's enough.

"Battle begins!"

The referee waved the flag, signaling the start of the match.

Zoroark immediately directed Woody Owl to react.

"Owlwood, Shadow Sneak Attack, let's launch the attack!"

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of light seemed to appear in the little chubby bird's big eyes.

The shadow beneath it quickly spread behind the cursed doll, taking on its shape, and used its jet-black claws to claw at the cursed doll's doll-like back.

At the same time, Su Lun also gave instructions:

"Hold on, then use phosphorescent fire to block the opponent's movement space, and it's best to hit the opponent."

The cursed doll, which had intended to dodge the attack from behind, abruptly stopped itself from dodging upon hearing Su Lun's command.

He then arched his back and took the hit of Owlman's shadow sneak attack.

However, it was not what it expected.

Rowlet may look small, but it can be incredibly powerful.

After enduring this attack, the pain in its back caused the energy it had gathered to become somewhat chaotic.

This caused the phosphorescent fire, which should have been released immediately, to fail to be released.

Only a few sparks were released.

It dissipated into the air before it could even float to Rowlet's side, causing no damage whatsoever.

Although the cursed doll quickly recovered and successfully released the phosphorescent fire.

However, Zoroark had already instructed Rowlet to try to dodge in advance, preventing the phosphorescent fire from reaching Rowlet.

Su Lun was somewhat disappointed with the Cursed Doll's performance.

But the battle has only just begun.

That wasn't enough for him to make the decision to give up on this Pokémon.

"Calm down, let's use shadow attacks too."

The cursed doll was somewhat flustered because it had failed to hit Rowlet.

They worry that they will disappoint their trainers and give up on themselves.

It had only encountered Su Lun a week ago.

At that time, it saw Suddenness commanding a Dusknoir to easily defeat a 'bad' Pokémon that was several times stronger than itself.

They were captivated by his strength and charisma and wanted to follow him in their cultivation.

Su Lun did not refuse at the time and accepted it directly.

Although the attitude wasn't as enthusiastic as the Cursed Doll had imagined.

However, this also made Cursed Doll very happy, thinking that it would be like the other trainers and Pokémon it had met, and that it would be integrated into a brand new family.

I can also become a member of Suwa's family...

However, their subsequent interactions gave the cursed doll a new understanding of Destiny Wheel.

They also realized that the trainer they chose was different from other trainers.

Sullair is very strong and has a very clear plan for the growth of Ghost-type Pokémon.

His training methods enable him to become stronger quickly.

However, the trainer who helped them become stronger had a subtle attitude towards them.

They show particular favor to those peers who demonstrate talent.

They always exhibit a strong emotion that humans call 'satisfaction'.

They had a lukewarm attitude towards these Pokémons whose strength was average.

Neither too hot nor too cold, neither too close nor too distant.

The gaze directed at them also carried a sense of scrutiny and selection.

The Cursed Dolls heard from their elders that this trainer, whom they looked up to, would eliminate Pokémon that could not meet his requirements.

We will no longer train these Pokémon and will release them back into the forest.

The criteria for trainers to select them is their performance in evenly matched battles.

If you satisfy him, you can stay; if you perform poorly, you will be eliminated.

From the day it heard the news, the Cursed Doll kept it in mind, training diligently and always preparing for the trainer's test.

But a vague unease and rejection lingered in my heart.

Because this is very different from the trainer it envisions.

It longs to become stronger, but it also craves genuine care from trainers, just like those trainers who don't seem as strong as Sudden.

But Sullane is really strong, and it really wants to become family with this trainer.

A week passed in the blink of an eye amidst worries and preparations.

The cursed doll never expected that it would soon face its own 'selection battle'.

And in this battle, I made such a mistake right from the start.

"This must have disappointed the trainer," the cursed doll thought nervously.

But the sound of the wheel behind it temporarily put its mind at ease.

He quickly mobilized his energy, causing his shadow to appear behind Rowlet like a ghost.

The dark shadow also grew sharp claws, reaching for Woody Owl's body, which was covered in thick feathers.

Then, the claws were blocked by a transparent barrier.

A sly glint appeared in Owl's small eyes, and its two wing-like wings flapped rapidly, scattering countless fluttering feathers that enveloped the cursed doll.

The cursed doll's attack failed again, and the tension in my heart grew even heavier.

Suddenly faced with Rowlet's Feather Dance, he was stunned and stood there for a moment.

Seeing the Cursed Doll's performance, Su Lun not only mentally deducted points from its score but also began to take its opponent seriously.

Then issue commands.

"Don't just stand there, unleash your anger."

The cursed doll awoke in panic, its emotions turning to rage amidst the swirling feathers.

Staring with bloodshot eyes, it looked at Woody Owl, which flew in the air like a winged ball.

A sense of malice followed the gaze and enveloped Mumu Xiao.

In an instant, this malice caused considerable harm to the little guy.

This caused its wing flapping frequency to decrease rapidly, and its flight altitude to also decrease.

His eyes were filled with exhaustion.

Venting anger: If your abilities are reduced in this round, your attack power will double.

Rowlet's current state is the result of its attack power being reduced by Feather Dance, causing the attack power of its move "Rage" to double.

Zoroark hadn't expected the Cursed Doll and the Wheel of Fortune to have such a hidden trick up their sleeve, and was instantly severely injured upon seeing Rowlet.

Immediately, he shouted with concern, "Woodwood Owl, how are you?"

Rowlet flapped its wings with all its might at Zoroark's call, but still managed to hover a little over a meter above the ground.

They didn't get directly defeated; they 'held on'.

Zoroark breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw that Rowlet was alright.

It is time to announce that it has conceded defeat and take back Owlwood.

However, when Su Lun saw that Rowlet had been seriously injured in one move, the Cursed Doll seemed to be frozen in place, staring blankly.

He immediately reprimanded, "What are you standing there for? Give chase! What are you daydreaming about?"

The cursed doll looked at the concern in Zoroark's eyes for Rowlet.

A slight, inexplicable sadness welled up in my heart.

He slowly raised his arm, and a shadow orb condensed.

Just when Su Lun thought victory was in sight, something unexpected happened...
