but.
When he came to Route 8 and passed the cylindrical bridge, he met the fifth Pokémon he had always dreamed of -
Laplace.
As a Pokémon with high intelligence, the ability to transmit sound thousands of miles away, and generally considered to have a beautiful voice, it is very suitable to become a member of the Pokémon band.
So the musician did not hesitate to ride on the Tanabata Bluebird and follow Laplace's footsteps.
Finally, he succeeded in conquering it.
In recent years, due to excessive protection by humans, Lapras is no longer as rare as it once was. If the current trend continues, it will soon become a common aquatic Pokémon.
[You have conquered Laplace, and the band has a new member]
New member joins.
As usual, the musicians began intensive special training for it. Thanks to Laplace's ability to sing extremely low-frequency, ethereal tones, the latter can not only exist as a harmony, but can also be combined with wind chimes to form a shocking and wonderful melody like an organ.
As an onlooker, Kashiwagi couldn't imagine that such a melodious sound could be made by a Pokémon.
Soon, after the special training, the increasingly well-organized Pokémon band arrived in Ssangyong City.
[You came to Shuanglong City. The atmosphere of new and old, technology and history reminded you of the magnificent epic music. With your heart excited, you found a square and started a performance with the Pokémon.]
The music started.
Kashiwagi once again immersed himself in the images and emotions presented to him by the musicians, as if he had really seen the magnificent history of the Unova region in those pieces of music.
There is no doubt that this is a symphony. When the musicians played this piece, it was as if they had torn off their coats, showing the attitude of "no more pretending, I'm telling the truth, I'm a classical musician."
Ok.
Just kidding.
The musician was just expressing his feelings at the moment. The instrument he touched most often was Homiga's old guitar, and he was determined to adapt all classical music into guitar versions and play them.
When the performance ended and passers-by gave applause, the Double Dragon Gym Leader Shaka was among the crowd. He recognized the musician at a glance as the rumored "genius" who was good at using music to command Pokémon.
It's obvious that the small group of gym leaders has shown their power again, and judging from the narration, it was probably Boss Kiku who promoted it.
It is not surprising that this man would build a stage to promote the existence of musicians just to let his workers listen to music he thinks is good.
Big boss, very generous.
The scene changes.
The musician followed Shaka to the Ssangyong Gym and started the Gym Challenge.
The latter is indeed very strong, and you can tell even from his aura.
So in order to deal with gym leaders like Shaka, the musician chose cold, quiet, and ethereal music, and used the clarinet to create a cold ice field, which greatly enhanced the ice-attribute moves of Laplace and Jigglypuff, and brought Shaka a lot of trouble.
[You defeated the Double Dragon Gym Leader Shaka and obtained the Legend Badge. He admired your fighting style very much and also pointed out your shortcomings in this area.]
[You are willing to learn]
In the anime, Xia Ka is a teacher at the Trainer Academy and also serves as the mayor of Ssangyong City. It is inevitable that he is excited to see such a talented trainer seed as the musician.
He also directed the musician to the nearby forest, where there might be Pokémon that the musician was interested in.
Speaker cricket.
After hearing what Xia Ka said, the musician headed straight for the forest near Shuanglong City.
From a gaming perspective, Speaker Cricket is a basically useless Pokémon, but for people in the Pokémon animation world, Speaker Cricket is the best companion for many musicians.
Being impatient is being impatient.
The musician has not forgotten the best way to find the sound of the cricket - playing the violin.
He searched and played along with Jigglypuff along the way. As expected, the speaker cricket was attracted by the music and was successfully conquered by the musician.
[You have conquered the speaker cricket, and the band has gained new members. You look at your band members who have already formed, and feel extremely relieved]
[What you didn't notice was that a blurry figure quietly followed your footsteps]
Ok?
Kashiwagi paid attention to the narration and successfully saw a blurry figure at the bottom of the light screen.
I really met Meloetta!
He never expected that his guess would become a reality, and if the trend continued, the musician might be able to make Meloetta his partner.
In that case, would the probability of winning the championship be greatly increased?
Actually not necessarily.
Kashiwagi is aware of the power displayed by most of the mythical Pokémon in the animation. Most of them are not very powerful in combat and are easily chased and beaten by poachers using Pokémon.
It's just that they often possess extraordinary magical powers.
The musician on the light screen obviously didn't know that he had been targeted by a mythical Pokémon. While heading towards Qinghaibo City, the location of the second-to-last gym, he tried to integrate the speaker cricket into the team.
The Sound Cricket is a Pokémon that produces different melodies depending on individual differences, and the sound it produces is similar to that of a violin - whether it is a cello, viola or violin.
Studies have shown that most bowed string instruments in the Pokémon world were designed based on different sound box crickets, just like cement comes from old builders.
Kashiwagi felt that this was very likely true.
Time in the picture speeds up.
The scenes presented are mostly of musicians using instruments to direct a group of Pokémon to play music, as well as scenes of improving combat effectiveness through battles and increasing the number of moves through training.
It is not difficult to see from here that the musician is very hardworking, and he is not the kind of person who relies purely on talent to play and does not train at all in his daily life.
Unfortunately.
During this period, Meloetta never appeared. I don’t know if it was because it chased for a while and then stopped.
Lean less.
The musician passed through Kagome Town and Ripple Town and reached his destination via an underwater tunnel.
[You came to Qinghaibo City, the calm sea made you pick up the violin and play a beautiful piece of music with Laplace]
After gaining applause by playing on the streets every day, the musician began to challenge Qinghai Bo Dokan.
Gym owner Xiziyi is good at using water-attribute Pokémon and is obsessed with swimming in the ocean.
The musician played a violin to play a theme song about fighting against the storm and the sea, allowing the Sand Bell Cactus and Laplace to successfully break through the defense line built by Xiziyi's many water-attribute Pokémon.
Even if the opponent uses a Pokémon as huge as Ocellaris.
Even Xiziyi was influenced by the musician's music.
[You defeated the Qinghaibo Gym Master Xiziyi and obtained the Wave Badge. He praised your fighting method and said that it reminded him of the beautiful scene of himself breaking through the waves, enduring the storm, and finally the sky cleared up after the rain.]
Good guy.
Has it reached the point where you're hallucinating?
Kashiwagi secretly smacked his lips, but in fact, he was the same. When he heard the musician's music, he was like being hypnotized and associated it with many things.
To be honest, although he had never heard of Homiga's underground concert, he felt that the current musicians' musical attainments should be no worse than Homiga's.
If I have to say where the difference lies, it might be in the originality...
Kashiwagi has been watching the simulation content for so long and has searched for more than a dozen songs. Except for the song that was performed on the stage in Fanba City at that time, he can basically judge that those are all other people's songs.
Could it be that the musician was not a creative pianist and was therefore disliked by the original classical music community?
...Not likely, right?
Although it is easy for a pianist to become famous if he has a talent for composing, it should not be an absolute requirement. After all, it is not easy to create a classic that will be passed down through the ages.
He felt it was difficult to explain. As he watched the musician board the big ship returning to Liyong City, he silently offered his blessings to the latter.
[You returned to Liyong City. First, you went home to clean up your musical instrument, and then started special training to prepare for the challenge of Liyong Gym.]
The musician once again showed his diligence.
He can be regarded as an extremely rare hard worker in Kashiwagi's long-standing simulations. He has trained so many times that in order to make his performance accurate enough without any mistakes, he also makes his Pokémon band practice over and over again.
Day after day, month after month.
at last.
The musician, satisfied with his growth results, came to the entrance of Lichong Dokan.
But he was stopped.
The other person turned out to be the one who had caught him.
[You hear the other party not allowing you to enter, saying that minors are not allowed in underground music venues. You quickly say that you are the challenger and show your badge box to the other party. The other party confirms that all your badges are real and is inevitably a little surprised]
[You told him that you would definitely fulfill your dream of becoming a musician, and walked in with big strides]
The musician came into the gym.
Homiga happened to be among them, and even seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time, and accepted his challenge with great enthusiasm.
And facing your idol.
After much thought, the musician decided to play his favorite song among all the other's songs and dedicate it to Homiga with his old guitar.
When Kashiwagi saw the old guitar appear, an exclamation mark appeared on Homiga's head.
[You were about to explain the origin of the old guitar, but you heard Homiga shouting that it was you. After a conversation, you learned that Homiga's father had already informed him of your existence. But Homiga didn't expect that the trainer who was rumored to be able to control Pokémon with music was actually his fan.]
[You told Homiga that you would definitely be able to attend the Higaki Tournament and realize your dream, and the latter supported you.]
After the narration falls.
A fierce battle began.
Homiga and the musicians played punk rock against punk rock, which made many passers-by who came to watch the game and listen to the music scream. Although the former did not have the ability of the latter, who could command Pokémon with music alone, she also had her own strengths.
She is used to defeating all challengers with only three Pokémon, no matter how many badges her opponent has.
And each of these three is very powerful.
To be honest, it is not a good choice for a musician to challenge his opponent with the rhythm that the other party is most familiar with, but the former obviously enjoys it and feels that he is one step closer to his idol and realizing his dream.
and.
His Pokémon are powerful enough, and the previous special training was not in vain. The accumulated strength has given him the support to make a breakthrough.
