Chapter 192 192: Total Defeat
"Tyranitar—Sand Coffin."
---
The sandstorm that had only been harassing moments ago—
Suddenly turned violent.
Grains of sand surged wildly, gathering at incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, they condensed into a massive hand.
---
Latios froze.
It had never imagined—
That something as small as sand could be controlled like this.
---
Seeing its stunned reaction, Sam shook his head.
Too inexperienced.
Latios had clearly spent too long crushing weaker opponents—
Now that it was at a disadvantage, it didn't even know how to respond.
---
Tyranitar didn't hesitate.
It seized the opening instantly—
And the giant sand hand clenched tight around Latios.
---
By the time Latios reacted—
It was already too late.
---
The sand tightened around its entire body.
Smaller sand "hands" formed within the grip—
Locking down its wings.
---
With its body restrained—
And its wings pinned—
Latios could no longer stay airborne.
---
BOOM!!!
---
It crashed heavily to the ground.
---
"Quicksand."
---
It was over.
---
Even in the air, Latios hadn't been Tyranitar's match—
On the ground, it had no chance at all.
---
The earth beneath it instantly turned soft—
Transforming into a swirling mass of sand that swallowed it whole.
---
Latios struggled desperately.
But the more it fought—
The tighter the sand closed in.
---
Gradually—
The movements weakened.
---
Then—
Stopped.
---
Silence.
---
The entire battlefield fell deathly quiet.
Even breathing could be heard clearly.
---
Nurse Joy wasn't stupid—
Just arrogant.
Now that her strongest Pokémon had been defeated—
Fear finally set in.
---
As Sam walked toward her step by step—
She began to tremble uncontrollably.
---
"Don't… don't come closer…"
---
Her voice shook.
Her body retreated instinctively—
Until her back hit the wall.
---
Then—
She collapsed.
---
Tears streamed down her face.
"I was wrong… I'm sorry…"
"I shouldn't have changed the evaluation… I shouldn't have made it harder…"
---
Seeing her like this—
Sam's anger faded.
---
Not because he felt sympathy—
But because he realized something.
---
Someone like her—
Wasn't worth it.
---
From the moment she brought Latios into a Gym inspection—
It was clear she had no intention of letting him pass.
---
She wanted to destroy his future.
---
And Sam knew exactly what that meant.
Professor Oak had gone to great lengths to secure this opportunity for him.
To have it sabotaged over personal bias—
Of course he had been furious.
---
But now—
Looking at her crying on the ground—
---
It felt meaningless.
---
She wasn't even worth his anger.
---
Just a spoiled child.
---
Arguing with someone like that—
Only dragged him down.
---
Sam let out a cold snort.
Then turned away.
---
"Let's go," he said to Yellow.
---
Yellow hesitated for a moment.
She had wanted to speak—
But after sensing Sam's anger earlier—
She stayed silent.
---
Kind as she was—
She still understood who stood on her side.
---
The two of them left the battlefield.
---
After an unknown amount of time—
Joy slowly stood up.
---
Her expression—
No longer fear.
---
But resentment.
---
She recalled Latios—
Then left without a word.
---
Later
"Unqualified?"
A calm but stern voice echoed.
"Explain your reasoning, Joy Snow."
---
The speaker—
Nurse Joy—
Looked similar to Joy Snow, but far more mature.
Her aunt.
And her superior.
---
"Aunt… that guy, Sam—he doesn't have the strength to inherit Viridian Gym!"
Joy Snow said bitterly.
---
Joy Jing looked at her—
Disappointment clear in her eyes.
---
She had once believed in this niece.
Good background.
Decent talent.
A bit spoiled—but still promising.
---
That was why she had recommended her as a Gym inspector.
---
But now—
She regretted it.
---
"No strength?" Joy Jing said coldly.
"That's a joke."
---
"I already know everything."
"Professor Oak has formally complained to the League."
"Your personal bias during the inspection has caused widespread dissatisfaction."
---
"You've disgraced the entire inspection division."
---
Joy Snow panicked.
"That's not true! I followed procedure!"
---
"Procedure?"
Joy Jing slammed the table.
---
"Who told you to use Latios during an inspection?"
"Who gave you that authority?"
---
Joy Snow flinched.
She had never seen her aunt this angry.
---
Tears fell uncontrollably.
---
Joy Jing sighed deeply.
---
"I gave you Latios so you could build a bond with it."
"It represents trust. Recognition."
"If Latios acknowledges you—others will too."
---
"But you…"
She shook her head.
---
"I was too impatient. That's my mistake."
---
Joy Snow finally understood.
---
"Aunt… please… don't take Latios away…"
---
Joy Jing looked at her quietly.
---
"Don't you understand yet?"
---
"It's not that I'm taking Latios away."
---
"It's that Latios…"
---
"…doesn't want to stay with you anymore."
---
"You've lost its trust."
