Breakthrough in the first round of the deciding tournament.
The news quickly spread to the Quicksand Team's territory.
Let’s not mention the other two groups for now, at least the sand group station became extremely lively. Some members of the group got excellent results in the competition competition, and many people felt very honored.
This also led to the fact that when Kashiwagi came to Ruge to report, there was an endless stream of visitors to his office, including several other cadres of the Suna Group.
It is enough to prove how popular the Yellow Iron Battle Conference is and how much attention it has attracted.
So why do the captains and cadres of the Quicksand Team rarely participate in this kind of thing where you can become famous if you win?
Flobo told him that the reason was very simple, except that some people were really unavailable, and it was just two words——
Afraid of losing.
The qualifying rounds and preliminary rounds were all fine. In a semi-enclosed venue, only you and your opponent knew how the result would be.
The final tournament is played in front of thousands of spectators! They don’t have the ability to start a gambling game. If they lose too badly and make no money, will they still be able to hang out in the future?
Why do you raise your head in front of your little brother?
The more imposing the eldest brother or boss is, the more he cares about his own face and status in the world. He hates it when someone talks about him behind his back, and he may not even like good things.
When others laugh when you fail, it feels very harsh, as if you are mocking yourself.
This is the so-called ultimate way.
The other forces are similar. The giant man who lost to Kashiwagi today is on the verge of being ruined. In the past, everyone who saw him would call him "Boss". Now that he has lost such a big man in public, I don't know how many people in the street secretly laughed at him.
Just a young boy.
Not only that, it was also exposed that he bribed guests to deliberately guide gamblers to buy tickets, and the underground gambling house was destroyed by malicious gamblers with angry gamblers - but I heard that even so, he still made a lot of money.
.
Because Bai Niao has tricked many people into buying gambling tickets from him, no matter who buys them, the banker can take the winnings. This part alone is a huge profit.
It's just that compared to the rapid decline in reputation, which one is more profitable is a matter of opinion.
Judging from the rumors that he got angry after returning, it is obvious that this man cares more about his status in the world than money.
compare to.
Although Kashiwagi did not earn as much as him, he became famous for a while, and more people knew that there was a small captain in the Quicksand Team who defeated a certain big brother from other forces by defeating the weak and the strong.
Under normal circumstances, if a member brings face to the organization in this way, the organization must express it.
Before leaving, Frobo also specifically told him that Yugo, the leader of the stone team, was very optimistic about him and that he would be rewarded after the game was over, so he could strive for a higher ranking.
——
"It's higher..."
Kashiwagi sat on the bed and turned to look out the window at the dim night. In front of him were three little ones sitting quietly.
Have a meeting before the battle to make a battle plan for tomorrow.
Since the beginning of the competition, they have done this kind of thing every day, which not only increases the probability of winning tomorrow, but also increases the intimacy between the trainer and the Pokémon.
certainly.
Reviewing today's game is also part of the process.
It was a thrilling win today.
If Cordora hadn't replaced Juhan's War Dancer, it would have been almost impossible for Big Mouth to defeat three Pokémon in a row in a short period of time.
It takes a lot of effort to hit someone.
Not to mention launching an attack during high-intensity exercise.
At that point, their chances of winning will be reduced to the lowest point.
Kashiwagi praised Cordora without hesitation, and reached out to touch the scars on its forehead caused by being kicked by Zhan Wulang.
"Guduo~"
But Dora raised her head and responded to the trainer's touch.
In its view, battle scars are a symbol of strength. The scars obtained by defeating the strong and drawing with Zhan Wulang are more like a gorgeous medal, but they don't know whether they can be retained after evolution.
"You should be just one step away from that limit. It wouldn't be surprising for you to evolve at any time."
Kashiwagi warned Kodora softly.
The latter nodded.
"Big-mouth baby has worked hard today." He turned to praise the big-mouth baby holding the stuffed doll, and couldn't help but smile when he saw the natural expression on his face.
It almost took down both Flying Leg Man and Kuai Fist Man.
But this does not mean that the auspicious egg that successfully hypnotized the former did not have any merit.
On the contrary, if Flying Leg Lang had not been hypnotized, the game after winning Zhan Wu Lang would not have been so smooth, but...
Kashiwagi rubbed Geely Egg's round head, thinking that although it did play a big role.
But being unable to create damage on your own is also a huge drawback.
After all, there are very few exchange opportunities in serious battles. Once this guy takes on the task of being a tool, he may not have the chance to end safely. Even if he is lucky enough to end the game, it will easily lead to the replacement teammate coming out to get beaten.
He deeply realized that he must let the Geely Egg learn [Poison] as soon as possible.
Speaking of which, he still has two move learning machines with assignable attributes that he has not used. Should he try the poison type?
……never mind.
The proficiency of the moves I just learned is too low, the accuracy and release speed are not very good, and it will easily hinder me when I use them.
"Let's go over tomorrow's plan again."
Kashiwagi said softly to the three little ones.
Half an hour later.
He comforted the Pokémon, allowing them to rest peacefully and recharge their batteries.
Tomorrow's game is exciting.
Judging from the information Flobo gave him, almost every top eight player except him has at least cadre level strength, that is, the average Pokémon level is generally above level 50.
Compared with the giant men, they are only stronger but not weaker, and they are often younger. They aspire to make a lot of money and don't care so much about their status in the world and the reputation in the town.
These people’s Pokémon may not all be raised by themselves.
But regardless of whether it is true or not, as long as you are willing to obey their instructions and shed blood for their plan to make big money, you will be equal to the power of the other party.
The top 16 competition is now completely over.
The opponent for the next round was determined to be the male trainer with extraordinary temperament named Shanmin from the morning.
Even though the opponent's face was extremely tender, Kashiwagi felt that he was the most likely to win. His performance during the battle alone was enough to tell that the opponent had real talent.
In all aspects, it far exceeds the level that Huangtie Town should have.
Just like the mythical beast man Dakto who suddenly appeared in the animation Diamond, even though there is no mythical beast, he still pushed all the way through with strong hard power.
Even the sixteen-to-eight competition is no exception.
How to win?
Unless Shanmin releases the water.
Speaking of which, if Shanmin really comes from other regions, what level of strength will he belong to? Can he win eight gyms and participate in the conference?
The simulation does not display the Pokémon level of the simulated subject, making it impossible to determine.
Even if it is shown, the strength required to challenge the gym in different timelines may not be the same, and there is even a possibility that the gym leader gives the badge out of pity.
He thought about reaching for the mobile phone on the bedside, intending to search for relevant terms on some public social platforms.
The screen lights up.
"Huh?"
A new message occupied his field of vision, and the sender...
"Dr. Yamanashi!"
Kashiwagi stood up suddenly, startling the two Pokémon under and at the end of the bed. The Big Mouth Baby next door also came over holding a stuffed animal and rubbing his eyes.
"嘁哚?"
"It's okay, it's okay, go to sleep."
He coaxed the big-mouthed child, then quickly comforted Kodora and Gilly Egg, and then opened his phone and carefully read the reply signed by Dr. Yamanashi.
As a result, the other party's first words made him embarrassed.
What does "children need to sleep well to thrive, and it is wrong to secretly play with mobile phones in the middle of the night"?
But when I thought about it again, I felt that this was normal.
Kashiwagi's written language has never been very good, causing the other party to mistake him for a child who stole his parents' cell phone. Moreover, due to the time zone difference, it happened to be midnight in Sinnoh when he sent the letter.
Beautiful misunderstanding.
He looked down further and found that the reply answered some questions in detail. The most concerning question was whether evolution would harm Pokémon in the short term. The answer was--
"No, evolution is a miracle and a transition of life. Time will not affect the power derived from genes."
As for when and under what circumstances it is easy to evolve, the reply stated that this kind of thing is difficult to explain.
Pokémon are creatures that are easily affected by emotions.
therefore.
Often particularly intense emotions can trigger miracles.
At the same time, natural evolution is also very common. As long as the level reaches a certain level, it is possible for a Pokémon to evolve even while sleeping and eating.
But level is not a shackles to evolution.
The reply gave several examples, including the differences in the evolution of Kati dogs at low levels and high levels...
at last.
It was mentioned that he greatly appreciated Kashiwagi’s courage to ask questions and his motivation to learn, and apologized for not being able to reply for a long time.
He also said that if there is something he does not understand, he hopes that he will have the courage to ask the teacher and work hard to go to school to learn more knowledge. One day in the future, he is welcome to attend his open class at Yuhong University.
Or it would be very good to go to his research institute, pick up new Pokémon, become a trainer and embark on a journey.
He even left his phone number, email and other contact information.
"It looks like he is really recognized as a primary school student..."
Bai Mu stumbled and read it, with a look of helplessness on his face.
However, was it really Dr. Yamanashi who replied to him? Or was it one of his assistants?
He shook his head to disperse the distracting thoughts.
What's more important now is tomorrow's game.
Kashiwagi turned sideways and gently touched Kodora's head, "It seems that my judgment is correct... Kodora, I look forward to the moment when you grow up."
