In the evening, the top eight list was officially released.
As the last game ended, the eight trainers who had successfully advanced gathered in the Pokémon Center, waiting for the computer to assign their opponents for the next game.
"It went by so fast!" Youshu looked at the other trainers around and sighed: "There are so many people participating, and now there are only eight people left."
Hu Yang stared blankly at the computer screen in the Pokémon Center. Soon, the grouping status of the quarterfinals was displayed.
The eight people are divided into two groups, AB, and each group will determine a trainer who will be promoted. These two people will compete for the championship title of this Caiyou Tournament.
The names and busts of the players appeared on the screen one by one. The first thing announced was the situation of Group A, which are:
Youshu vs Shana, Tian Guang vs Xiaofu
Seeing this scene, Youshu breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately I don't have to confront Brother Hu Yang right now."
Hu Yang: "...are you afraid of me?"
Youshu shook his head honestly: "I can't beat you."
After all, the person next to me is a trainer who can subdue the legendary God of Sky, Earth, and Ocean!
The photo of the ancient moon bird picking up the empty seat in its mouth is still vivid in my mind.
Because of that photo, Youshu originally thought that Rayquaza was not very strong, but when he actually saw Rayquaza, he realized that this idea was completely wrong.
That huge body, extremely oppressive sight, and fierce and powerful aura are simply not something that ordinary people can deal with.
And the Pokémon and trainers who can subdue this Pokémon...
Youshu felt that there was a big problem with his worldview.
But when it comes to Populus euphratica, Youshu feels that all this is very reasonable.
After thinking about it, Youshu came to a conclusion.
That is, his neighbor, the good brother, is not an ordinary person.
Hu Yang wanted to say something, but at this moment, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd around him.
Hu Yang looked up and saw that the grouping situation of Group B had been displayed.
The first thing on the list is his name.
And his opponent was the trainer with the Frozen Bird, Darla.
Hu Yang vs Dara, Xiao Yun vs Liz
Oh, what a coincidence?
Hu Yang was a little surprised, but not surprised, because he had already been prepared to confront this person.
Seeing this result, Dara, who was not far away, pursed her lips and showed a solemn expression on her face.
He looked at Hu Yang, and the two looked at each other briefly, but neither of them spoke.
The next day, the quarterfinals officially started, with Group A playing in the morning.
Hu Yang stayed behind the players' backstage and watched these two exciting games.
Youshu appears as the first contestant. His opponent is a girl who specializes in insect-type Pokémon. Although she cultivates Pokémon very well, her attributes are too single, and she ultimately loses to Youshu and is eliminated.
And Youshu also became the first trainer to advance to the semi-finals.
The second game was a battle between two passerby trainers whom Hu Yang did not know. The trainer who finally won was the girl named Xiaofu.
In the afternoon, the competition in Group B officially started.
Hu Yang replaced a few Poké Balls in his hand and entered the field with a super combination of three pillars + lightning bird + ancient moon bird + Gengar.
This one is a battle between beast men.
"Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to the Caiyou Conference. I believe everyone has been looking forward to this competition for a long time. These two trainers have attracted countless people's attention during the preliminary competition."
The host Jingzi stood on the high platform and continued excitedly:
"One is the legendary trainer Yang Hu who saved the Hoenn region and defeated Groudon and Kyogre, and the other is Darla who is carrying the legendary Pokémon Freeze."
"When these two players collide, there will definitely be extremely fierce sparks. Who can win and advance to the semi-finals? Let us take a look!"
In the auditorium.
Mi Keli looked at this scene and asked with a smile: "Who do you think will win?"
Dawu: "Populus euphratica."
After watching the battle for the past few days, Daiwu was able to roughly judge the strength of the frozen bird based on its performance.
If both parties are serious, Populus euphratica's fire-breathing dragon and the super-evolved Gardevoir can defeat the frozen bird.
Seeing the look of expectation in Daigo's eyes, Michael said to himself that even if he wins the championship, he will not take over your position.
However, it would be boring to talk about this kind of thing. Mi Keli was still looking forward to seeing Daigo's expression when he was rejected.
Thinking of this, an elegant smile appeared on Mi Keli's face.
On the field, the battle has officially begun.
The first Pokémon sent by Dara was still Freeze, but the Pokémon sent by Populus euphratica was not the Charizard or Gardevoir that Daigo had expected, but a Pokémon with sharp eyes and crackling thunder and lightning on its body.
lightning bird.
Dawu: "..."
Okay, Lightning Bird has twice the attribute restraint against Frozen Bird, so it’s okay to use it to fight.
The two legendary bird Pokémon noticed each other's presence the moment they left the Poké Ball.
Frozen Bird's eyes were solemn, while Lightning Bird's face was full of pride.
The trainer's voice sounded behind him, and the Frozen Birds and Lightning Birds moved at the same time.
The sky-wide yellow electric current pours out from the Lightning Bird, making the Lightning Bird look as dazzling as a rising yellow sun.
That's...discharge!
A strong electric current poured into the Freezing Bird, and the Freezing Bird let out a painful cry. It flapped its wings, creating pieces of ice, and quickly shot towards the Lightning Bird.
Lightning Bird stumbled to avoid it. Seeing this, Darla wanted to let Frozen Bird pursue him, but a trace of electricity appeared on Frozen Bird's body. Due to the paralysis, it could not use its moves.
"Oops!" Darla said in his heart. This was the first time he saw his Freeze Bird in such pain.
But in this situation, Hu Yang would never give his opponent a chance to breathe. He looked at the frozen bird and gave the last command: "Thunder."
After the order was given, the Lightning Bird let out a sharp cry that echoed through the sky, and then, a thundercloud formed out of thin air in the sky.
Terrifying thunder and lightning was brewing inside, and in the next second, an extremely thick thunderbolt struck down towards the position of the Freezing Bird with lightning speed.
"Boom!"
Amid the violent explosion, Frozen Bird fell to the ground on the spot and lost its ability to fight.
"The Frozen Bird lost its fighting ability, and the player from Populus euphratica won the first battle!"
The referee blew the whistle in his hand and asked: "Player Dara, please change your Pokémon! Player Hu Yang, do you also want to change your Pokémon?"
"Yes." Hu Yang nodded.
"Okay, then the game will continue..." the referee said smoothly. Because Hu Yang had been beaten to the end by one Pokémon in previous games, the referee subconsciously thought that this time Hu Yang would also fight to the end in one go.
After he finished speaking, he realized that Hu Yang had chosen to change instead of continuing to fight.
"Oh!" The referee was a little embarrassed.
Hu Yang: "..."
He took back the Lightning Bird, and then took out Regice's Poké Ball.
Following a flash of white light, Regice's huge, cold body appeared on the battlefield.
Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but froze on the spot.
On the Liuli Island battlefield, the image of three sealed ancient pillars turning into tall giants tens of meters tall, standing on the sea, blocking Groudon and Kyogre is still deeply imprinted in people's minds.
After a brief silence, a burst of extremely warm cheers erupted from the audience.
Is there anything that could be more satisfying than being able to see the battle of extremely rare legendary Pokémon with your own eyes?
As for bullying people...
No one would think Hu Yang was bullying others by sending Regice.
Because since he has conquered Regice, it means that he has become Regice's trainer.
This is his true strength.
Show your true strength in the battle and do not use weak Pokémon to deliberately lose to others. This is also a sign of respect for your opponent.
Listening to the voices in the audience, Dara, who was in the center of the vortex, suddenly felt dizzy.
