Chapter 395: Raven Town, Battle Conference!
The journey to Rainbow Valley has come to an end.
But in the end, the cotton ball returned with its goddess, intending to travel with the two.
However, Kapok Ball chose Xiaoguang. Although Instructor Yun was effective, his training method was a little bit uncomfortable for him. Xiaoguang was gentle and considerate.
In the end, Xiaoguang successfully subdued Black Heart Cotton and his girlfriend, and the matter ended there.
.............
A few days later, Raven Town!
This small town located in the south of Raven City is a certain distance away from the bustling and noisy Raven City, but it exudes a unique charm.
As a subsidiary town of Raven City, Raven Town is exactly the same as Raven City in terms of architectural layout and overall style.
However, during these two seemingly peaceful days, the town of Raven became unusually lively.
At this moment, the battle club in Raven Town is holding a unique battle tournament in full swing.
This competition attracted many trainers passing by to sign up for the competition, and the scene was so enthusiastic that it was astonishing.
Xiaoyun and the other person naturally did not miss this rare opportunity.
As soon as they stepped into Raven Town, they went to the Battle Club to register.
When the two stepped through the gate, the tall NPC Dong George immediately came to greet them.
"Hello, both of you. Are you interested in participating in the battle tournament?"
Xiaoguang smiled sweetly and responded politely:
"That's right, uncle. Xiaoyun and I both want to participate. Please help us sign up."
Dong George nodded readily and said, "Of course, no problem!"
As he said that, he took out two brand new registration forms from the desk drawer and handed them to Xiaoguang and her companion respectively.
After taking the registration form, Xiaoguang looked at it carefully and a hint of surprise flashed across his face.
"Hey, it actually requires contestants to use three different Pokémon to participate in the battle?"
Hearing Xiaoguang's question, Dong George crossed his arms and explained with a smile:
"That's right, little girl. This is the tradition that has been followed in our battle tournament."
Although their battle tournament cannot be considered a top-level event, it has been held for quite some time.
Its scale and influence are more than enough compared to those events held in ordinary small towns.
Just then, a sound came from outside the door.
"Xiaozhi, slow down. Why are you in such a hurry to sign up?"
"You don't understand. This is a sign of respect for the competition. What if you go too late and can't register?"
"What? He's just a child."
The two looked in the direction of the sound and saw Xiaozhi and Pikachu rushing towards them in a hurry.
Following behind him were Tiantong and Alice, who looked somewhat helpless.
After entering, Xiaozhi immediately noticed Xiaoyun and the other person inside and shouted happily:
"Xiaoyun, Xiaoguang, are you guys here to participate in the competition too?!"
Xiaoyun greeted with a smile.
"Yes, it's a good opportunity for a fight. It's been quite a while since our last fight."
The last time was in the semi-finals of the Lily of the Valley Conference. If nothing unexpected happens, Xiaozhi will definitely use his new favorite this time.
But it doesn’t matter. He has no plan to use the old pet anyway, so he can take this opportunity to hone the new pet.
Veterans, that's for the World Championships.
When Xiaozhi heard that he could fight Xiaoyun again, his eyes lit up and he immediately started filling out the form.
Xiaozhi has three major hobbies in life.
Fight, skin, and beat Team Rocket.
What? You ask why you don't have a girlfriend?
The newcomer to Pallet Town said that he never needed that kind of thing!
Afterwards, everyone submitted their registration list.
The list is as follows:
Xiaoyun: Zoroark, Burning Worm, Green Ivy Snake!
Xiaoguang: Burning bug, feathered eagle, water otter.
As for why not sending kapok balls?
Look, this guy got his goddess for the first time and is still in the honeymoon period. Look how weak he looks.
Tiantong: Stone crab, coconut monkey, mud fish.
Alice: Yaya, conductive flying squirrel, rat head...ahem, dragon-headed ground squirrel.
Xiaozhi: Snake, Water Otter, and Soft Pig.
Well, the three major families are all in order, and the evil European emperor.
After registering, everyone was planning to go home and rest.
Suddenly, an anxious and panicked female voice broke the noisy atmosphere.
"Get out of the way, I...I can't stop!"
"I go!"
Xiaoyun was startled by this sudden situation. Without time to think, he quickly reached out and grabbed Xiaoguang beside him, and suddenly flashed to the side.
Bang!
The out-of-control girl knocked the confused Xiaozhi next to her away, and finally fell into the fountain in front.
The water splashed everywhere, causing people around to exclaim in surprise.
After a while,
Xiaozhi twisted the clothes helplessly, and the girl clasped her hands together, bowed and apologized.
"Sorry, sorry Xiaozhi, I really didn't mean it."
The girl wore a green beret with a white rim and had short blond hair.
She was wearing an orange and white dress and yellow short shoes, and had a green shoulder bag on her shoulder.
Hearing the girl's apology, Xiaozhi waved his hands while squeezing the water off his clothes.
"It's okay, Bailu. My clothes dry quickly."
When Xiaoyun heard Xiaozhi's name, he remembered who the girl in front of him was.
Bailu, a supporting character in Hezhong, a silly and sweet template.
He can't resist cute Pokémon, has a reckless personality, and always runs with his eyes closed.
The most important thing is, she can actually knock the newcomer from Pallet Town away?
Girl, you have something.
Compared to Xiaoyun, Tiantong was more familiar with Bailu, so he asked, "Bailu, are you also coming to Raven Town to participate in the battle tournament?"
"Battle Tournament?"
After hearing this, Bai Lu, who was originally apologizing, suddenly felt stuck.
"Oh! It's this battle tournament. Excuse me everyone, I have to go sign up first!"
After a few seconds, Bai Lu seemed to remember the existence of this thing and ran away in a hurry again.
Looking at the girl whose exhaust gas would soon disappear, Xiaoguang couldn't help but sigh.
"She's really a fiery girl."
However, Bailu's incident was just a small episode, and everyone returned to the Pokémon Center.
The next day, East George vs. Conference.
"Everyone is welcome to actively participate in this battle tournament. My name is Dong George."
George Dong stood on the podium, wearing a training suit and shouted into the microphone
"I won't say any more. The prize for the winner this time is a set of seven complete feathers produced by Fanba City that can improve basic abilities."
“So please do your best to win the championship!”
Basic Feather, an item that improves the basic abilities of Pokémon, a product unique to Unova.
Xiaoyun thought: "Special feathers that improve basic abilities are perfect for the Burning Bugs."
Although this feather is rare, its ability to enhance is limited.
The most appropriate use is to lay the foundation for Pokémon in their infancy to avoid forcing their growth.
Then the host announced the rules of the competition.
The rules of the battle tournament are very simple. First, there is a round of elimination, and the top eight players are directly selected through 1v1 duels.
Next is the game mode of eight to four, four to two, or two to one.
This model is quite similar to the gorgeous competition.
Xiaoyun looked around and found that everyone was chatting.
Xiaozhi was talking to a boy named Kenny Yang or Kenya, and the two seemed to be very engaged in the conversation, laughing from time to time.
Not far away, Tiantong was communicating with a girl named Cabernet Sauvignon who had short purple hair.
However, judging from the girl's angry expression, Tiantong clearly had the absolute advantage in this conversation.
One-sided crushing!
On the other side, Alice was not idle either. She was arguing fiercely with a girl wearing a yellow beret.
As time went on, their arguments became louder and louder, attracting the attention of many people.
As for him, it’s enough to have the cute Xiaoguang by his side.
Although he thought so, Xiaoyun had actually already noticed that there was another pair of eyes staring at him.
No need to guess, it must be Hezhong Xiu, the cold brother, who was defeated six by himself, the emperor.
Just then, the draw ceremony before the game began.
On the huge screen, the card slots of the contestants' portraits kept flipping.
Under the gaze of the players, the battle list was gradually revealed.
Arranged in order of appearance, the number of battles is as follows.
Xiaoyun VS Blue Gray.
Xiaoguang VS Cabernet Sauvignon.
Tiantong VS Xiudi.
Xiaozhi, Bailu, Kenyang, Alice and others will compete against the rest of the contestants.
"The first game is the first one, that's not bad!"
On the field, Xiaoyun took the command position and waited for his opponent.
In the contestant area, looking at Xiaoyun's back, Xiu Di's eyes revealed his unwillingness to accept the result.
"I didn't find a match for you. Wait until I defeat those people first, and then I'll show you my strength."
On the field, the referee shouted, "Next is the first match, contestant Lan Gray VS contestant Xiaoyun, the match begins!"
Seeing Xiaoyun, Lan Gelei, who was wearing a beret, said arrogantly:
"Boy, your game is over. Let the Dragon Destroyer, Lord Blue Gray, put an end to you!"
"Go, Tundra Bear!"
A red light flashed, followed by a roar.
A tall, white-fur creature that looks like a standing polar bear appears.
I, the strongman Mariluri, refuse to accept being called a mere tundra bear and dragon destroyer.
I don’t know why, but when Xiaoyun heard this, the image of the muscular Marillil beating up a group of dragons appeared in his mind.
Hiss, this is the Dragon Destroyer, okay?
Looking at the arena, Xiaoyun also threw out a Poké Ball.
"Come out."
A shark with an upright appearance, bone spurs on its body and a smirk on its mouth.
Fanged Land Shark - Zoroa Version
"Greco-Shark? It's a dragon-type Pokémon?"
Blue Gray, who was originally uninterested in this battle, suddenly lit up his eyes the moment he caught a glimpse of the Sharptooth Land Shark.
She only has one idea now.
Dry dragon!
"In that case, I will not let you escape from my grasp!"
Blue Gray shouted excitedly while quickly issuing instructions.
"Tundra Bear, give this little dragon a warning, use the icicle attack!"
Upon receiving the order, the tundra bear raised its strong and powerful arms high and slammed them to the ground.
Boom boom!
Following a violent vibration, several huge icicles instantly condensed in the air, carrying a sharp chill, and fell towards the Sharp-Toothed Land Shark in unison.
Xiaoyun waved his arms calmly.
"Avoid the attack!"
After receiving the instruction, the Sharptooth Land Shark put its feet together and jumped in the air to dodge.
Very silky smooth.
Icicles brushed past it one after another, dodging it perfectly!
"Very good, Shadow Ball!"
After avoiding the icicles, Xiaoyun continued to fight back.
The Sharptooth Land Shark (Zorua) opened its mouth, and a ball of inky black energy quickly gathered.
In the blink of an eye, a shadow ball emitting a strange light was formed.
Then, the Sharptooth Land Shark spit out the shadow ball with force, and it shot straight towards the tundra bear like a cannonball.
However, facing the fierce Shadow Ball, Blue Gray shouted loudly without fear:
"Don't back off, Tundra Bear. Use Bodybuilding after you take it!"
In a flash, the shadow ball hit the tundra bear's thick chest hard.
Bang!
The tundra bear that was hit staggered, and the hair on its chest was burnt black due to the power of the explosion, making it look a little miserable.
But Ping still withstood the attack.
"freeze!"
Then, the tundra bear let out a roar, swung its body wildly, and its muscles began to swell unconsciously.
Bodybuilding!
Blue Gray swung his fist: "Charge, use pounce!"
Upon hearing this, the tundra bear arched its body forward and exerted force with its hind legs!
Boom boom!
The tundra bear shot out like a cannonball, and the powerful explosive force of its hind legs even created a hole in the ground.
The way it bared its fangs and claws seemed as if it was going to tear the Sharptooth Land Shark to pieces on the spot!
Jie Jie Jie!
However, facing the fierce attack of the tundra bear, Xiaoyun seemed unusually calm and composed, and shouted casually:
"Next!"
Humph, don't be so arrogant! This is a bodybuilding attack, how can your little dragon resist it! "
Blue Gray shouted confidently.
But the next moment, the Sharptooth Land Shark (Zorua) simply raised its front paws slightly and caught the tundra bear's fierce attack.
Then he tilted his head.
That's it?
Blue Gray's eyes widened: "Impossible! How could this happen?!"
The more confident you were last second, the more frustrated you are now.
Now not only Blue Gray, but even the tundra bear himself was confused and even began to doubt his life.
Vadasi...is that all?
Outside the stadium, Alice was equally incredulous:
"Is the Sharptooth Land Shark so strong? Blue Gray's Tundra Bear can't even do any damage?"
She had fought against Blue Gray before, and the opponent's tundra bear was so strong that even the dragon-headed mole could only barely tie with him.
So Alice thought that even if she couldn't defeat the opponent, the gap shouldn't be so outrageous!
"Maybe he used some special moves."
In response to Alice's question, Tiantong expressed his own opinion.
Pretty much the same, actually.
Zoroa's innate characteristic - illusion.
The nearly perfect attribute configuration makes it immune to attacks of three attributes: general, fighting, and ghost.
Apart from the fact that the evil element has a double restraining effect on it, there is almost no other weakness to be found.
"Dragon Destroyer, huh? Then try to take our attack!"
Xiaoyun's mouth corners slightly raised, outlining the Dragon King's smile, and whispered: "Revenge!"
Hearing this, Land Shark (Zorua) also gave a sly smirk.
Suddenly, a black light rose up around it, and then it raised its front paws and chopped down hard at the tundra bear!
In a hurry, the tundra bear could only cross its arms to block.
Then......
Spicy Tiansai!
boom!
The tundra bear only felt a huge force surging out through his arms.
It's like the endless rushing of the river, or like the unstoppable flooding of the Yellow River!
Boom!
The tundra bear felt as if it had been hit by a truck. Its entire body flew backwards involuntarily and fell heavily to the ground!
The scene reversed instantly!
