How can I be a trainer when my girlfriend is so cute?

"Then I won't disturb Mr. Fang Ci from preparing for the next game." After chatting briefly with Fang Ci, Ah Xiao said goodbye and left with the bronze bell.

As the eliminated players left one by one, the lounge became somewhat empty. Fang Ci's gaze slowly withdrew as Ah Xiao and Bronze Zhong left, and the expression on his face also relaxed. He sat back in his comfortable chair and turned his gaze to the big screen, where another exciting game was being played.

The game was drawing to a close, and the situation in the middle of the arena was becoming increasingly grim. Under the watchful eyes of the audience, the huge Pokémon, Crimson-faced Dragon, was now facing the siege of two powerful enemies, one large and one small. With their excellent speed and strength, the marsupials continuously launched fierce attacks on Crimson-faced Dragon, gradually putting it in trouble.

Behind the marsupials, a dark-skinned boy with short pink hair stood upright. His eyes were firm and sharp as he kept a close eye on the situation on the field. He gave the order without hesitation: "Marsupials, use the million-ton punch!" Following his order, the two marsupials swung their strong fists at the same time. Their strength gathered together at this moment, creating a gust of wind. This gust of wind instantly knocked the red-faced dragon away. The huge figure drew an arc in the air and fell heavily to the ground.

The referee blew the whistle, announcing the end of the match. The Red-faced Dragon lost his ability to fight, while the pink-haired trainer Ilima and his Mega Marmoset successfully defeated their opponent, Guiwu, with their excellent coordination and strong strength. The audience at the scene immediately became excited, and they cheered for Ilima's wonderful performance.

"Ilima and Mega Beast are still as unstoppable as before!" Seeing Ilima's high-spirited appearance on the field, the commentator's mood became as excited as the audience. They were full of respect for this trainer from Alola Haole City.

"Contestant Ilima has successfully advanced to the semi-finals, which means that the top four of this year's battle festival have all been decided. They are the talented teenager from the Padia region, and contestant Fang Ci who has relied on Diancie's gorgeous fighting style to defeat all opponents without losing a single battle!" Amid the host's sonorous voice, Fang Ci's avatar was the first to light up and occupied a corner of the big screen.

"Then there is Ilima, a Normal-type trainer from the Alola region who successfully broke through the siege as a dark horse!" After Fang Ci was the pink-haired boy who had just won.

"The third one is the very familiar leader of the Haruka Gym, a rock climber who combines both strength and flexibility - Chaklo!" The third one was a young man who Fang Ci had never seen before and looked very agile.

"The last one, I believe there is no need for me to introduce you too much, that is our Kalos Alliance's Water King, the world-renowned Shimi King for his calm fighting style!"

Seeing the portrait of the last person on the screen, even Fang Ci couldn’t help but be stunned. He didn’t expect that Shimi, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Carlos Alliance, would also participate in this competition.

Fang Ci knew that the elves that could be selected for the competition had already been determined. If he was to fight with Shimi with all his strength, he would not be afraid at all. But now, apart from Diancie, the strength of the Buzz Bat and the Ice Dragon was still a little behind the Four Heavenly Kings. However, Fang Ci was not discouraged. He knew that this was a rare opportunity to fight with the Four Heavenly Kings of Carlos. It was a rare challenge and training for him and the elves. Therefore, he decided to go all out and meet this challenge with his strength and wisdom.

Just as Fang Ci was concentrating on the big screen, his eyes closely following the flashing avatars, a slight sound suddenly rang in his ears. This sudden sound broke the silence of the stadium and made his heart beat faster instantly.

Fang Ci quickly retracted his gaze and turned to look in the direction of the voice. Three familiar yet unfamiliar faces suddenly appeared in his sight. These three faces were the other three semi-finalists he had just seen on the big screen - Ilima, Chaklo and Zhimi Tianwang.

They had quietly stood beside Fang Ci without knowing when, standing shoulder to shoulder with him, looking up at the big screen above. Their eyes were also full of anticipation and nervousness, as if they were also looking forward to the upcoming duel.

"The semi-finals will be held in the afternoon. Let's witness the matchups randomly matched by the system now!"

As everyone looked on eagerly, a beam of dazzling light slowly gathered in the center of the screen. This light was like the brightest star in the night sky, instantly attracting everyone's attention. The audience held their breath and stared at the screen, afraid of missing any details.

The atmosphere in the arena became extremely tense. The lights around seemed to dim, and only the light on the screen was constantly flickering and jumping. This light seemed to be silently telling of the upcoming fierce duel, and also silently cheering for the top four players.

As the light gradually stabilized, the four avatars on the screen began to move slowly. They seemed to be pulled by some mysterious force, forming complex tracks on the screen. The audience's heartbeats also accelerated, and they seemed to be able to feel the tense and exciting atmosphere.

Suddenly, the four avatars stopped moving, and they faced each other, forming two groups of confrontation. After this brief silence, the audience burst into warm cheers. They waved their glow sticks and flags, cheering for the upcoming confrontation.

Fang Ci's profile picture was closely adjacent to Ilima's. In the lounge, Fang Ci turned around and met Ilima's smiling gaze. Their eyes met in mid-air, as if they could feel each other's determination and fighting spirit.

The atmosphere in the arena reached a climax, and the audience's emotions were completely ignited. They were looking forward to this exciting duel and looking forward to seeing the two players show their strongest strength.

"Ah, why is it Mr. Shimi? I want to see how powerful Diancie is!" After seeing his next opponent come out, Chaklo's expression instantly fell.

As a gym leader specializing in rock-type, Chakro was naturally very interested in Diancie, so when he saw that Fang Ci and Diancie were not matched, Chakro's face was full of disappointment.

"Haha, Chaklo, please give me your guidance for this afternoon's game!" Seeing Chaklo's frustrated expression, Zhimi smiled with a bit of gloating on his face.

Zhimi was not worried at all about the battle with Chaklo. After all, they had worked together for so many years and knew each other well. In addition, his strengths happened to restrain Chaklo, so the outcome of their afternoon match seemed to have no suspense.

"Hmph, don't be so complacent. Just wait for me to kill you today and then pull you down from the position of the Four Heavenly Kings!" The two of them were obviously very good friends, so they could joke with each other without any scruples.

"Haha, if you had this ability, what would you have done earlier?" Upon hearing this, Zhimi mocked mercilessly.

"Just wait for me. I'm going to special training now and I'm going to make you suffer in the afternoon!" After saying that, Chaklo left in a hurry.

Looking at Chaklo's departing back, Zhimi smiled slightly, then turned to Fang Ci and Ilima and said, "I look forward to meeting you in the finals!" After that, Zhimi, like a nobleman, turned around gracefully and walked towards the direction Chaklo had just left.

"I will definitely give my all in this afternoon's game!"

Seeing the burning fighting spirit in Ilima's eyes, Fang Ci smiled slightly and couldn't help but feel excited: "Me too!"

"Fang Ci, look, I found the information about Ilima!" On the way to have lunch with Ilima, Dianxi, who had been looking down at her phone, handed the phone to Fang Ci as if presenting a treasure.

"Oh, let me see!" Fang Ci immediately became interested after hearing this. To be able to make it to the semi-finals in a competition with hundreds of people, his strength must be beyond doubt. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and the enemy ensures victory in a hundred battles. It is always a good idea to understand the enemy in advance.

"Ilima, born in the Trainer School in the Alola region, has always been a role model admired by the students of the school with the name of "Prince of the Trainer School". Despite this, Ilima is actually very passionate about Pokémon battles. Ilima is an outstanding graduate of the Pokémon School. He has been the most proud student of the school since its opening and has left countless legends. Because he skipped grades continuously, he graduated from the school very early, but he still wanted to continue his studies, so he went to study abroad in the Kalos region. In the Kalos region, he collected eight badges and participated in the Kalos League Miare Conference with good results. He returned to the Alola region to serve as the captain of the General Department and assisted Professor Kukui in organizing the first Alola League."

"Looks like a very strong opponent. How about it, Xixi, are you confident about the afternoon game?" After reading Ilima's message, Fang Ci took it more seriously.

"Of course!" Diancie said confidently, "By the way, Fang Ci, take a look at the video below. It contains the weakness of Ilima's trump card Mega Marmoset!"

After hearing what Diancie said, Fang Ci immediately clicked on the most recommended video.

The background of the video looks like the first generation of Alola League games. In the video, Ilima's Megamon is facing a giant mantis that looks much more ferocious than other Megamons. Megamon has already mega-evolved. Two Megamons, one large and one small, are standing on the field at the same time. However, the giant mantis relies on its high-speed movement to keep in a straight line with the small Megamon, making the big Megamon behind the small Megamon a little afraid to attack at will. In the end, Ilima still lost the game, and the video quickly spread on the Internet.

Many people commented on the video, accusing the trainer of Giant Mantis of being despicable, but many people also defended him, saying that there was nothing wrong with Giant Mantis's behavior and it did not violate any rules of the competition.

Fang Ci had no comment on this, but he was disdainful of letting him win in this way. However, it must be said that the observation ability of the trainer of Crankshaft was really sharp. He easily grasped the weakness of Mega Breeder, making its previously unfavorable parent-child love characteristics become a shortcoming that hindered itself.

“I’ve been watching the video for over a year now. Ilima must have the means to deal with it now, otherwise he wouldn’t have made it to the semi-finals.”

"That's right~" Upon hearing this, Diancie obediently took the phone from Fang Ci. It also felt that it was inappropriate to win in this way, so it didn't feel disappointed at all.

Diancie took the phone and skillfully opened the feature encyclopedia that she had previously saved.

"Magic mirror. It can resist the changes made by the opponent and bounce them back." Diancie read out the content of the entry softly, her tone full of joy. Today, she found out about her own characteristics by accident, which made her in a very good mood since the end of the game.

"But Xixi, your special feature after mega evolution is the magic mirror, but it's not certain what your special feature is in your normal state!"

"What?" Diancie's cute little face froze for a moment, and she asked incredulously, "Could it be that my normal characteristics are different from those after I evolve into a mega?"

“Although it is true that some Pokémon have the same characteristics before and after mega evolution, the characteristics of most Pokémon will change after mega evolution.” Looking at Diancie’s little face that instantly stiffened, Fang Ci tried to hold back his smile.

"Then how do I know if my characteristics have changed?" Hearing this, Diancie suddenly became anxious.

"This is easy, we can just try it ourselves after dinner!"

"Let's go now, there's a patch of grass over there!" Seeing the grass not far away, Diancie's eyes lit up instantly, and she pulled Fang Ci over without saying anything.

A minute later, looking at Bankiras standing in front of him, Diancie inexplicably felt like he was in an examination room and swallowed nervously.

"Banguiras, use Horrible Face!"

"Ban~"

After seeing the encouragement in Diancie's eyes, Bangilas no longer hesitated. He glared and rushed towards Diancie with a huge black ghost face.

Seeing the ghost mask attacking her, Diancie nervously closed her eyes, but after a few seconds, just like on the court this morning, Diancie did not feel any discomfort and immediately opened her eyes in surprise. However, when she looked at Fang Ci and Bangilas happily, she found that their brows were still frowned.

"Banguiras, do you feel anything unwell?" Diancie looked at Banguiras expectantly.

"Ban~"

Bankiras shook his head slightly. Its terrifying face obviously had no effect on Diancie, but it was not bounced back by the magic mirror. It was obvious that the characteristics of Diancie in her normal state were not consistent with those after mega evolution.

However, at this time, Fang Ci already had some guesses in his mind, and while Diancie and Bankiras were confused, he threw another Poké Ball in his hand.
