Pokémon: Rise of Evil

Chapter 221 Boring Race

To be honest, Shota felt that the levels of the trainers he met were uneven. Perhaps most of them were students from Pokémon training schools, but there was also a possibility that the gym trainers were too lenient.

This may also be a way to guide civilians to participate in this kind of fame-making competition, or to be more precise, it should be a temptation.

Because it is impossible for ordinary people to use normal means to get the championship or top few places in the conference.

Everything is just a seemingly good wish given by the upper class to the lower class in order to shut them up.

At the selection meeting, after Shota released his giant Onix, the opposing trainer and his Pokémon were frightened by Onix's aura, as well as the scar that ran through its eye, causing the opposing trainer and his Pokémon to flee without a fight.

Although the trainer and his Pokémon withstood the pressure in the next two rounds, they were all destroyed by just one hit from Onix.

Next is the opening ceremony. Just like in the original plot, Xiaozhi and his group from Silver Town first came to the Hoouin. This is where the holy fire of the Silver Conference is collected, but for some reason, no torch runners came out for a long time. Because Togepi ran into the courtyard, Xiaozhi and his group also entered the Hoouin.

They learned that the temple that originally stored the flame of the Ho-Oh was occupied by Ura, and due to Ura's territorial awareness, others could not get close. In order to obtain the holy fire, the staff of the Ho-Oh Temple invited many trainers to help, but to no avail. Xiaozhi wanted to try to go in to get the fire, but was driven back by Ura's subordinates, Gou Li and Wan Li. At this time, Ye Yue, a trainer from the Hoenn region, also wanted to help. He wanted to subdue Ura. But the first time everyone went up, they were still knocked down by Ura's flexible attack.

Team Rocket, who was also defeated by Ura, was also ready to get Ura, but Musashi said that he wanted to use Ura to replace Meowth, which made Meowth unwilling to help Musashi and caused the plan to fail. The trio was beaten away. Finally, Ye Yue sent out the Pokémon Blaziken, which Xiaozhi's Pokédex could not identify, and quickly defeated Ura and captured it, and the torch relay began.

Looking at Musashi with an afro stuck upside down in a bush, Shota was impressed by the tenacious vitality of the trio and wondered whether he should go up and say hello. In fact, he wanted to poach these three people from Team Rocket. After all, they were all talented. It's just that Satoshi has Ho-Oh to protect him, otherwise Pikachu would have been captured long ago.

But looking at Musashi who has regained his fighting spirit, I guess she has forgotten about herself. This is good, isn't it? After all, it may spoil a lot of the original plot.

Thinking of this, Shota decided it would be better not to go up and say hello.

"Musashi, meow, it seems we have failed again, meow"

"Yeah, Musashi, what should we do next?"

Meow Meow and Kojiro waited for a long time but there was no reply from Musashi. Then they found that Musashi was looking quietly in one direction with tears in his eyes.

"Hey, Musashi, are you okay, nya? Are you in so much pain?"

"Yes, do you want us to take you to the hospital? Although it seems that our funds for this month are almost used up, your health is still important. Without you, our three-member Team Rocket will not be complete."

Musashi looked at the tears in her palms and heard her companions' words. A nameless happiness filled her chest.

Then, she punched Miaomiao and Xiaojiro, wiped the tears from her eyes with her hands, and scolded them: "I am in good health, take it to treat my illness, I don't want to eat?"

"Why does Musashi always like to beat people up?" Kojiro carefully touched the big bump on his head.

"That's right, meow."

"Alright, you two, cheer up. We are Team Rocket traveling across the galaxy."

Musashi clenched his fists, looking very righteous.

Gu Gu Gu~

"Ojiro, how much money do we have left this month? I want to eat."

……

After the opening ceremony, Shota entered the preliminary league.

To be honest, although the players here seem to be stronger than the previous ones, they can't hold out for long under the might of the giant Onix.

After the giant Onix used its tail to blow a Marillil away.

After observing the situation of Mary Luli, the referee waved the referee flag in his hand.

"Mariluli has lost her ability to fight. Therefore, the winner is contestant Kozo from Pallet Town."

In the spectator seats, after seeing Xiaorao's final victory, Xiaoxia stood up happily holding Togepi.

"Great, Xiao Rao won."

"Pokoboi~"

Xiaozhi, who was sitting next to Xiaoxia, had fighting spirit in his eyes. Xiaogang looked at Xiaorao, who was calm on the field, and his squinting eyes revealed admiration.

On the other side, Hanako, who came under the guise of watching Satoshi's game, actually came to see Shota.

After seeing Shota win another game, Hanako's face showed an excited smile again, as if she had won this game.

Professor Oak, who was sitting next to Hanako, had a smile on his face, but judging from his deep eyes, he was probably thinking about something.

After the game, Shota made a video call in the players' lounge.

After waiting for a while, Mitsuko and Xiaoyao appeared on the computer screen.

"Ah you are?"

Shota touched his face and said, "Ms. Mitsuko, please ask Xiaoyao to leave for a while. It's better to stay as far away as possible. Of course, if you don't listen to my advice, you will be responsible for the consequences."

Hearing this familiar voice, Mitsuko felt a little excited, but still remained a little vigilant.

After watching Mitsuko send Xiaoyao away, Shota whispered into the microphone: "Mitsuko, you have a mole under your armpit. There is also one on the inside of your thigh. Although it looks small, you women should notice it."

After listening to Shota's words, Mitsuko happily raised the microphone and said, "You haven't replied to my message for more than a year. I thought you were missing. By the way, Xiaoyao misses you very much."

After a pause, Mitsuko blushed a little, and continued: "Me too."

Shota didn't feel anything when he heard Mitsuko's somewhat resentful words. He just thought of Xiao Qian who was still waiting for him in Chengdu. But maybe she had already learned about him through TV reports and came to watch his game.
