Pokémon: An Encounter with You

"This... can be considered an accident..." Shi Qiu said with difficulty.

He had a bad feeling, so he picked up Vulpix and Bubble Squirrel and started running with Riolu.

Behind him, the ice knives in the sky followed him like raindrops.

"Where's Rotom?! Rotom is broken too?! Stop it now, I can't get out!"

------

Outside the venue, teachers from several universities looked solemnly at the young man fleeing in a panic on the big screen. Among them, the teacher from Kyoto University looked even uglier after hearing Shi Qiu's words.

Oh no, there was an accident.

No one dared to make the decision to temporarily cut off the online live broadcast. The audience was not stupid and there were still so many people on the scene. Ever since the prop on Shi Qiu's wrist was destroyed but he still stayed in the venue, both the barrage and the offline audience had begun to feel something was wrong.

"What's happening here?"

"Summer camp organizers, please take a look... Is there a child still inside?"

"That should be fine, right? Isn't Articuno the guardian of Kyoto University?"

"Maybe this boy is more talented? The teachers want to test and teach him more?"

…………

No, it couldn't be a test. After seeing the unhappy expressions on the Kyoto University side, many responsible teachers had some idea in their minds.

Don't tell me that Articuno has gone berserk...

------

"The power of wave guidance is in my heart." Shi Qiu shouted casually, regretting that he didn't practice more often and couldn't even use it proficiently. He could only hope that the information from the anime he watched in his previous life would help. "Riolu, help me guide it!"

A blue light began to ripple around Shi Qiu. He felt the bone-chilling coldness gradually dissipate and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not bad, it's not bad. The waveguide has some effect."

After saying that, he started to grit his teeth again: "Is the simulator fake? Didn't I say I'm already level 38? How come my body is still as fragile as a piece of paper!"

The power of Evergreen restored physical strength, and the power of waves relieved mental fatigue. Shi Qiu and the three elves hid here and there and managed to survive for dozens of minutes.

After a cry that pierced the sky, Shi Qiu gave up hope in the outside world. He gently tapped the Zoroark's Poké Ball on his waist, causing a subtle spatial fluctuation.

"What's going on? Why is the screen black?!"

At the venue, spots of snow appeared on the big screen, and all the Rotom in the venue lost signal and contact one after another, leaving only those on the periphery wandering around aimlessly.

"The champion and the ice king have arrived." In the conference room, the staff member hung up the phone and said.

The people present felt a little more at ease: "Fortunately, considering the uncontrollability of Articuno, the higher-ups allowed the Champion and the King to arrive in Kyoto City ahead of time."

"After this incident, Articuno's stance and the way the Chinese region interacts with it will become ambiguous again..."

------

"Is everything resolved?" Shi Qiu asked Zoroark who had returned.

The simulator cannot be used in a live broadcast, so in order to avoid being exposed, Zoroark can only make the Rotoms "malfunction" one by one.

Zoroark nodded and looked forward with a serious expression: "(He is coming.)"

In the snowstorm that blocked his view, Articuno's figure slowly approached and flew to not far from Shi Qiu, staring at Shi Qiu quietly with its cold eyes.

"Tell me why you are here." A cold voice rang out from the bottom of Shi Qiu's and all the elves' hearts.

What is my purpose? What could I have a purpose for? Am I not just a student who is here for an examination?

"You may have misunderstood. I have no intention of offending you. I am just a student here for the assessment..."

Halfway through his words, the Articuno on the opposite side became visibly impatient, and with a flap of its wings, a huge wave of snow rushed towards him.

Zoroark narrowed his eyes, quickly stood in front, waved his arms and used Dark Blast to catch it firmly, then fired a jet of fire at Articuno.

Having misjudged Zoroark's strength, Articuno was caught off guard and flew up in anger:

"(How dare you, the ignorant followers of the gods, overstep your authority!)"

The two elves had a disagreement and attacked each other fiercely.

Shi Qiu felt the terrifying energy fluctuations and knew that this was not something he could intervene in. He carefully gathered his own Pokémons and put them into Poké Balls one by one regardless of the worry on their faces, watching the battle ahead anxiously.

"Zoroark can't hold on any longer... I should have known not to let Mr. N out!"

He stared at the battlefield looking for an opportunity, and was about to find a gap to pull Zoroark into the advanced simulator to avoid the limelight, when he suddenly felt something in the air tugging at the corner of his clothes.

It's a fantasy!

Shi Qiu grabbed the hairy but powerful arm with one hand and asked in a low voice: "Zoroark?"

Zoroark did not show up, but quietly retreated with Shi Qiu.

Obviously, he had the same idea as Shi Qiu, which was to find a safe place and then transmit back to the forest.

On the way to evacuation, Shi Qiu dug out the ticket from the corner and immediately clicked [Yes] on the virtual screen of the simulator.

In the corner of my eye, I saw a cold blue shadow flying towards me quickly.

Oh no! It’s too late! Articuno is too fast! Cold sweat dripped down Shi Qiu’s face.

A dark figure rushed out from beside.

[The forest ticket has been activated. ]

[The character...the sprite...has been generated and is entering the simulation map.]

[Current simulation map: ***'s most popular and most crowded areas. ]

[You have entered the a-1 forest area. ]

"Zoroark!" Shi Qiu shouted in shock.

Zoroark lay dying on the green grass, his handsome black and red hair covered with frost. Shi Qiu subconsciously used all his strength to heal him.

However, the next second, a fierce blizzard hit Zoroark accurately and knocked him away.

Shi Qiu looked up in disbelief.

The entire forest area of ​​A-1 was covered with snowflakes. Articuno was flying proudly in the air, looking at them coldly.

There were rustling sounds around the forest, in the bushes, on the grass, and in the leaves. The elves in area A-1 popped their heads out curiously to observe.

Shi Qiu struggled to pick up Zoroark, who had lost his ability to fight and fell into a coma, and sat where he was, looking around in a daze.

The elves were originally just happy and a little curious, but after seeing the extremely miserable Shi Qiu and Zoroark, their eyes turned red and they all attacked the gods in the air in unison.

Leaves and water flow, petals and flames, mental power and close combat, waves and light, all attacks were obliterated in the wind and snow.

The A-1 forest area, where the temperature and weather have never changed, ushered in its first winter.

Shi Qi stared in a daze as the blizzard had already arrived in front of him.

Bubble Squirrel, Ice Vulpix, and Riolu broke free from their Poké Balls and stood in front of him. Sonic Boom and Snowflake once again struggled to block the blizzard.

Shi Qiu wanted to cheer up quickly and find a new opportunity, but it was as if his soul had left his body, as if he was separated from the world.

Bubble Squirrel and Ice Vulpix were blown away by the storm, and Riolu stood silently in place, frozen into an ice sculpture.

In a trance, Shi Qiu met the eyes of the mechanical retired forest ranger.

【Forest Ranger: Forest Ranger is the core and pillar of the forest. 】

[Do you have the awareness to regard the forest as your home and live and die with it? ]

A silvery-white seed mark appeared on Shi Qiu's forehead.

“This is an overstepping of authority.”
