Zhuqing Breeding Center.
At ten in the morning, the children's battle class began.
"Next up is the Pokémon battle everyone has been looking forward to. Make good use of your Pokémon's strengths and have a fun battle!"
"Raichu, use Thunderbolt!"
"Uh, uh, use Double Team!"
"Show your spirit, use Focus Punch!"
"Smoochum, Sweet Kiss!"
After finishing his morning work, Li Wei watched the children's battles in his free time.
"How youthful!"
Da You scanned Li Wei up and down, annoyed, "You're not that old, why are you acting so ancient?"
Li Wei ignored his retort, "Didn't those two keep arguing yesterday?"
Da You nodded, "That's right, they argued quite seriously."
Yesterday, there were two typical cases where children were punished with running laps for arguing, and Li Wei and Da You both saw it.
Professor Rowan joined their conversation.
"That's the spirit. Those who were arguing yesterday have unexpectedly become good friends today."
Professor Rowan pointed to the two little boys with their arms around each other's shoulders, "What a wonderful connection, and that's the fun part of Pokémon Summer Camp."
The battle lessons continued into the evening.
"Dinner is ready!!"
The second day's lessons also went very smoothly. The enjoyable Pokémon Summer Camp had just begun.
...
Unbeknownst to them, four days of Pokémon Summer Camp passed. The children stood in twos and threes on the lawn, waiting to depart.
Li Wei, observing from a distance, heard his phone ring. He immediately answered it.
A male voice came from the other end of the line,
"I'm almost there."
Li Wei's lips curved into a smile.
"Welcome, Lance."
"Hahaha, it's for the children."
Lance arrived in Sinnoh yesterday to participate in the Pokémon Master League, defeating ElitePalmer at the Eterna City main venue.
At Li Wei's invitation, he came to Zhuqing Breeding Center to serve as a special teacher for the children.
This was an idea Li Wei had when Professor Rowan said he wanted to open a Pokémon Summer Camp.
He thought of inviting anyone he knew who came to Jubilife City or nearby for a match.
And Lance was the first special guest.
The timing was also perfect.
The fifth day's lesson was to go to the Safari Zone to interact with Pokémon.
Each child had a Pokémon for self-defense, and they had already bonded with the Pokémon distributed by Professor Rowan.
The eight class teachers also had Pokémon.
But with Lance's presence, this lesson should be even more lively and interesting.
Li Wei approached Professor Rowan, who was about to depart, and whispered in his ear, "Lance is coming."
Professor Rowan was surprised, "Lance?"
Li Wei softly said, "I invited him. He can be a special teacher for the children, that should be fine, right?"
Professor Rowan laughed, "Of course! The children will be very happy. You can announce it."
"Children, I have a special surprise for you. Please look up at the sky."
The children followed Li Wei's pointing finger and looked up at the sky. A whooshing sound, growing louder, came from the clear sky.
At first, it was just a small black dot, but it rapidly grew larger with the whooshing sound.
Soon, the outline of the black shadow gradually became clear...
An orange-yellow figure moved at high speed across the sky, a black cape flapping in the wind, and a head of Red hair dazzling in the sunlight.
"Let's welcome, Champion—Lance!"
Dragonite slowly descended, flapping its wings. Lance leaped off Dragonite's back, "Hello, everyone."
The lovable Dragonite also blinked its big eyes and excitedly greeted the children.
"Woooo~~"
"Mr. Lance!!!"
"Dragonite!"
The little boy with glasses took them off and rubbed his eyes, "Am I seeing things? I actually saw ChampionLance!"
"It's, it's the Champion!" The little girl holding Piplup was so excited her voice cracked.
"I really like your Dragonite!"
In an instant, Lance was surrounded by the children, their exclamations and screams intertwined.
The children stood on their tiptoes, craned their necks, their eyes wide and round, screaming and jumping.
The children hadn't expected that the Champion they admired, whom they could only see on TV, would make such a dazzling appearance.
Lance scratched the back of his head, "Haha, I'm so popular with children."
Li Wei took a picture of Lance and Dragonite surrounded by children and sent it to the group chat.
Li Wei: "Suggest an emoji pack."
Lt. Surge: "Leave it to me!"
Xiao Huang: "Mr. Lance is very popular with children."
Red: "The children are very happy, it looks like a lot of fun."
Qinglv: "After all, he's the Champion. When we were kids, talking about the Champion and seeing the Champion, we were like that too, right?"
Xiao Qian said helplessly, "Uh... but didn't you guys become Champions very quickly?"
A Jin: "That's called reminiscing about our youthful days, dummy!"
Li Wei and Professor Rowan's researchers quickly came out to maintain order, "Everyone, please maintain order so we can go to class."
Professor Rowan was not angry about the children's loss of control and fanaticism; it was pure passion.
Professor Rowan suggested, "Lance, come up and introduce yourself to everyone."
Lance laughed heartily, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Amidst enthusiastic cheers, Lance and Dragonite walked over to Professor Rowan's side.
"Hello, everyone, I'm Lance, and this is my partner, Dragonite."
Lance surveyed the excited children on the lawn, and his lips unconsciously curved into a smile.
"I feel your love for Pokémon, and I feel your enthusiasm."
"Today, I will be your special one-day teacher. I hope you all have a wonderful day!"
Dragonite let out a timely roar, "Woooo~~~"
First, there was an incredible heart-thumping sensation, followed by an explosion of loud cheers.
"Awooo!!!"
ChampionLance is going to guide them!
ChampionLance is going to be a one-day teacher!
Pokémon Summer Camp is truly wonderful.
Looking at the cheering children,
Li Wei walked over to Lance and smiled, "This will definitely become a memorable moment in their lives."
Lance's lips curved slightly, "I am honored."
Professor Rowan announced loudly, "Children, it's time for us to set off for class."
Professor Rowan and Lance, with the overjoyed children, set off towards the Safari Zone.
Li Wei really wanted to go, but unfortunately, he couldn't.
Before Lance departed, he handed Li Wei a few Poké Balls.
"Please help me maintain Salamence, Gyarados, and Aerodactyl."
"Since I'm coming as a special teacher, you can't charge me today, right?"
"No charge, I even have to treat you to a meal."
Paying was too vulgar. Li Wei had originally intended to cook Lance a meal to express his gratitude.
Lance laughed heartily, "Good!"
