He is still familiar with the jungle and grassland scenery. This is the place where he and Pikachu first bonded.
This is also where I first met Brother Chi.
At this moment, Chi has temporarily stayed in the backyard of the Oak Research Institute and is not accompanying Xiaozhi.
A mysterious feeling of emptiness in the heart made Xiaozhi feel like he was light even when he walked.
Dr. Omu is one of our own, and after discussing with Xiaomao before, the two of them had already informed the former of the secrets in their bodies.
After listening to it, Dr. Oki felt that the world was magical and quickly accepted it.
No wonder these two people...and Xiaolan grew up surprisingly fast, far beyond his imagination.
It turned out that there was an expert guiding me behind the scenes.
After leaving Chi's wooden chair in the backyard of the institute, Dr. Ohki had time to go find the former to play chess and enjoy the leisurely old age together.
As for why Xiaozhi went to Changqing City today...
"Haha Xiaozhi, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon~!"
At the entrance of Changqing City, a boy with brown hair and a spiky head was already waiting for him. He was holding one hand on the wall and his movements were quite coquettish.
"Idiot...Xiao Mao, because you asked me to come!"
Xiaozhi just complained helplessly, and then added angrily:
"I'm going to Orudolan tomorrow. I'm packing my luggage now when they suddenly called me over..."
"Haha, of course you will get something good if I ask you to come~!"
Xiaomao didn't care at all about Xiaozhi's face, smiled and pulled him into the city, and walked quickly towards the direction of Evergreen Gym.
"Huh...?"
Qinglu, who was in the former's soul world, frowned slightly.
He felt that familiar smell on Xiaozhi...disappeared?
Has that guy Chi been transcended?
...
After some explanation, Xiaozhi roughly understood the whole story.
This is his first time as a gym leader, and Xiaomao still wants to do this job well.
At this moment, the gymnasium has been renovated, and it will be officially opened to the public today... So the opening ceremony will naturally have to be grand and colorful to be worthy of his status as Xiao Mao.
When Xiaozhi walked near the Evergreen Gym, he discovered that a competition arena had been set up at the entrance, with a huge banner hanging on it.
"To celebrate the reopening of Changqing Gym, the first Changqing City Commanding Cup Competition will be held here today!"
“The registration deadline is until 12 noon, when the competition will officially begin!”
Xiaozhi scratched the back of his head, what the hell is this "Finger Swinging Cup Contest"?!
It is now about nine o'clock in the morning, but many residents of Changqing City have already gathered around the ring and are talking about it.
There were even many tourists from other cities in the Kanto region who came specially to watch the legendary first "Finger Swinging Cup" competition.
Obviously Xiaomao's publicity is very good and full of gimmicks.
Worried about not being able to find a few strong contestants, Xiaomao called back Xiaozhi who was fine... But unfortunately Xiaolan and Bilan had gone out to practice and could not come.
Finger Swinging Cup, as the name suggests, the elves in this competition can only use the Finger Swinging Skill, which is the only move.
What moves you can use and what situations occur are completely random. It can be said to be a game purely based on luck.
It's a good start, not a real battle with swords and guns, but a fun game in the form of an entertainment competition...
"How is it haha, what do you think of me~!"
Xiaomao smiled and patted Xiaozhi on the shoulder, saying proudly.
A world first!
Xiaozhi: "..."
You are really a genius!
However, it was the first time I heard that there was such a competition, which made Xiaozhi also interested and immediately expressed his participation.
"If you use the command skill...my Gengar can actually use this move."
Xiaozhi took out a Poké Ball and just carried it with him.
Because the randomness of this move is too ridiculous, who knows whether it will produce a [Water Splash] or [Big Explosion]... Therefore, Xiaozhi did not instruct Gengar to use it in the official battle.
But this competition is purely based on luck...
"Hmph... If you think it's just luck, you're totally wrong, Xiaozhi from Shinxin Town!"
At this time, a cold snort suddenly came from behind the two of them, and the voice was somewhat old and mean.
Xiaozhi and the two turned their heads, only to see a stooped old woman with curly short beige hair, wearing a purple dress, and holding a crutch in her hand.
The gloomy and cold face was glaring at Xiaozhi and Xiaozhi very seriously.
"King of Heaven...Miss Kikuko?!"
Xiaozhi recognized the latter and blurted out.
But why does the latter look so vicious to me... He and Juzi are just acquaintances, right?
"Oh~ is the old woman here again? But let me make it clear in advance that I am only the host of this competition and will not compete in person~!"
Xiaomao was obviously more familiar with Juzi and said unceremoniously.
"Hmph...it doesn't matter, as long as I win the championship in this competition, it will be a humiliation for you to bow your head and award the award to me in person!"
Juzi's tone was even more arrogant and unabashedly hostile.
After seeing Xiao Mao spending a lot of money to promote the Commanding Cup Competition online, Ju Zi came immediately, intending to severely dampen Xiao Mao's spirit.
Xiaozhi: "..."
Looking at the two people who were facing each other tit for tat, he didn't understand how the two people were facing each other despite the huge age gap.
However, he was obviously more interested in what Juzi said before, "It's not about luck."
"Because the physical fitness of the Pokémon itself, the items it carries, and its characteristics... these can all be controlled. In some respects, by matching these three aspects well, the winning rate will be greatly improved~!"
A clear female voice came from behind again, and the voice was very familiar.
Xiaozhi suddenly turned his head, it was Xiaoxia whom he hadn't seen for a long time!
"Xiaoxia, why are you here...?!"
Xiaozhi's eyes suddenly lit up. He hadn't seen Xiaoxia for a few days, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity and intimacy arose spontaneously.
As a friend of Xiaomao, the opening of Changqing Gym was successful, so Xiaoxia came to support it.
"Wuwu~~!"
At this moment, a Pokémon that looked like a little angel was flying above Xiaoxia's head. The egg-shaped lower body was covered with a triangular pattern, and there were a pair of small flapping wings on both sides.
It just so happened that her Togepi evolved into Togeki...Xiaoxia took it to the competition.
You must know that at the very beginning, academic circles believed that the finger swinging technique was exclusive to the Togepi family.
If it's a matter of luck, Xiaoxia doesn't think her Pokkigu will lose to anyone!
"Oh~ It seems that there are many powerful trainers gathered here~!"
At this time, another familiar voice came, and it turned out to be Xiaogang.
Nibi City is not far from Changqing City. Xiaogang had nothing to do, so he simply came here to join in the fun.
