Pokémon: A Strong Man from the Slums

Time flies by like a white horse. In the blink of an eye, two and a half months have slipped away.

During this time, Wang Chen enjoyed the rare leisure and comfort with his beloved elves.

They only do some basic training and skill training every day to maintain their good competitive form.

Now, all of Wang Chen’s elves have been adjusted to their peak condition, ready to show their most powerful combat strength at any time.

Today is the important moment when the Padia Youth Conference officially kicks off.

Not only will there be a grand opening ceremony and an exciting draw ceremony, but the first round of exciting elf showdowns will also take place.

At this moment, whether it is a leader like Wang Chen or other ambitious young talents, they all rushed to the center of the tennis table market to participate in the opening ceremony of this highly anticipated event.

Not long after, Wang Chen successfully arrived at the opening ceremony of the competition.

"Tsk tsk! This competition venue is simply amazing, much better than the last Miare Youth Conference!

Among the many competition venues I have seen, this is probably second only to the Galar Masters last time." Wang Chen thought to himself, and a feeling of anticipation surged in his heart.

Not long after, Wang Chen arrived at the venue.

Almost at the same time, the opening ceremony of the Padilla Masters officially kicked off.

There is no doubt that this opening ceremony was highly regarded by many viewers and can be said to be quite outstanding.

Not only does it vividly display the unique customs and culture of the Padia region, the local unique dances and beautiful songs, but even the rare elves in the Padia region make their appearance on the stage!

It is obvious that the organizers of this event have put a lot of effort into it. Judging from this exquisite opening performance alone, it has already played an excellent publicity role for the Padia region.

A few hours later, this amazing opening ceremony came to an end, followed by the much-anticipated drawing of lots.

According to the careful planning of the event organizer, all contestants participating in this competition are required to go on stage to draw lots in turn and show the drawn number plates on the spot, and then the order of battle will be determined based on the draw results.

Not long after, it was finally Wang Chen's turn to go on stage and draw lots.

He walked steadily to the stage and successfully drew a lottery ticket marked "Area A, Group 1, No. 1".

This means that he will have a battle with the person in "Area A, Group 1, No. 100".

At the same time, this fact also indicates that Wang Chen will become the first player to compete on stage in this event.

"Tsk! Why was I drawn to play in the first round? If there is no inside story, I absolutely don't believe it." Wang Chen thought to himself.

In this magical elf world, whenever a league competition is held, the organizers always vow that the drawing process is absolutely fair and just.

But everyone with a discerning eye knows that so-called fairness and justice are almost impossible to achieve in reality.

After all, if it were truly completely fair, it would be very likely that two strong players would meet in the first round.

As a result, top players who were expected to advance to the quarterfinals or even win the runner-up may be eliminated early in the group stage.

Considering such a competition arrangement, it is obvious that the event organizers will inevitably control the draw results.

As expected, under the careful planning of the organizer, Wang Chen unfortunately drew the first spot to appear.

He knew very well that this was probably an attempt by the organizer to use him to create topics and thus gain a lot of traffic!

"Oh! Forget it, if the organizer of the competition wants to make money from traffic, let him make it. I don't care about traffic anyway. I only care about whether I can win the final prize!" Wang Chen thought to himself.

Then Wang Chen stopped thinking about it and sat down leisurely in the contestant seat, quietly waiting for the game to begin.

Soon, the exciting drawing ceremony officially ended, and the host of the competition stood in the center of the ring and began to announce the contestants of the first game.

"Now let us invite the two contestants for the first game.

First up is the Flying-type gym leader from the Johto region, 'Asu' who specializes in training bird spirits!"

As Asu came on stage, many audiences who came from far away in Johto area cheered for him, but the cheers were not very enthusiastic.

Obviously, Asu was not the protagonist of the first game.

"Now let us welcome another contestant from the first game.

He is the envoy of Zygarde, the chairman of Zygarde Group, the champion of Miare Youth Conference, a young talent from Kalos, and the disciple of Kalos champion Karuna - Wang Chen! "

As the host finished speaking, Wang Chen stood on the fighting stage. At the same time, the audience below began to cheer like thunder.

Wang Chen!!! Wang Chen!!! Wang Chen!!!

It is no exaggeration to say that at this time, Wang Chen’s number of fans is no less than that of anyone else in this elf world.

This is because Wang Chen deliberately wanted to keep a low profile and deliberately erased some of his own achievements.

If Wang Chen were to use the titles of the Savior of the Unova region and the Savior of the Galar region, I believe his number of fans would surge again and his popularity would crush everyone.

"Please get ready, both contestants. The first group match of the Padiya Youth Conference will begin now. The group match will adopt a three-on-three rotation mode. Now please release your first Pokémon!" shouted the host.

As the host finished speaking, Wang Chen and Asu threw out a Poké Ball almost at the same time.

Two red lights flashed, and a huge and imposing "Dragonite" and a smaller but very agile "Nightowl" appeared in the air above the venue at the same time.

After seeing Asu's Night Owl appear, Wang Chen sighed and shook his head helplessly.

"Hey! The level of this Night Owl has just reached the peak of the Quasi-King level, while my Dragonite is already at the early King level.

This battle is meaningless to Dragonite. There is no need for command or tactics. Dragonite can win as long as he attacks with a single attack. "Wang Chen thought to himself.

The fact was not beyond his expectation. Dragonite itself was much stronger than Nightowl in terms of race, and now Dragonite also crushed Nightowl in terms of level.

So in just one round, Asu's Nightowl was defeated by Wang Chen's Dragonite with one claw and completely lost its ability to fight.

"Nightowl has lost its ability to fight. Please ask contestant Asu to replace it with the next Pokémon!" the host announced.
