Elf: This little Mao is very different.

“This is the championship trophy!”

At night, at the Pokémon Center in Higaki City, Shigeru, Mei, Toru, Satoshi and others gathered here.

Xiaozhi looked at the championship trophy in Xiaomao's hand with indescribable envy in his eyes.

"Xiao Mao, can you lend it to me to have a look?" Xiao Zhi asked Xiao Mao.

"Of course." Xiao Mao had no reason to refuse such a small matter, and he handed it to Xiao Zhi without hesitation.

"That's great!" Xiaozhi looked at the trophy in front of him and made a vow: "One day, I will also get a trophy, a bigger trophy than this one!"

"I remember that you, Xiaozhi, made a vow before the Higaki Conference started, but the result was..." Alice was the first one who didn't give Xiaozhi any face for his ambition and went into the bad friend mode.

"That was an accident. One day, I will defeat Xiaomao and win the championship!" Xiaozhi made the vow with a firm tone and a serious expression.

"That may be difficult, Xiaozhi!" After hearing Xiaozhi's words, Xiaomao raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "I will keep sniping you!"

"Come on, my friends and I won't be afraid!" Xiaozhi patted his chest, looking very brave.

"Pikachu!" Seeing Xiaozhi's appearance, Pikachu also cooperated very well and released a trace of electric current.

"Then I'll wait for you out front, Xiaozhi!"

Xiao Mao looked at Xiaozhi, who was still the same young boy even after experiencing setbacks in several regions, and a smile appeared on his face.

"I hope you won't keep me waiting too long!"

"Of course!" Xiaozhi nodded heavily.

"Xiaozhi, you have to work hard next time!" Seeing Xiaozhi's serious look, Mei and others sent their blessings.

"But that's a matter for the future. Right now, you are still defeated by me."

Just at this moment, Xiao Mao's tone suddenly changed and he teased Xiao Zhi.

"What? This time it was just an accident. One day, I will defeat you, Xiao Mao!"

Xiaomao's words instantly broke Xiaozhi's defense, so he immediately stood up and argued.

"Hahaha!" Xiaozhi's argument caused laughter from everyone present.

"What?" Looking at everyone laughing, Xiaozhi pouted in dissatisfaction.

"that……"

After everyone finished laughing and Xiaozhi returned the trophy to Xiaomao, Alice suddenly stretched out her hand and said.

"Alice, just say whatever you want to say." Looking at Alice who seemed to be hesitant to speak, Mei immediately said to her.

"Yeah, Alice, is there anything I can help you with?" Xiaozhi, who had calmed down, also looked at Alice.

"Xiao Mao, can I have a fight with you?" Under the gaze of everyone, Alice immediately looked at Xiao Mao and invited him to a fight.

"Alice, do you want to fight me?" Xiao Mao pointed at himself and said with some surprise.

"That's right." Alice nodded, and then continued: "I know I am not your opponent, Xiaomao. I want to understand the gap between you and me!"

After saying that, Alice looked at Xiao Mao with a look full of fighting spirit.

"Oh?" Hearing this, Xiao Mao looked at Alice with interest.

"Xiao Mao, why don't you just agree to it." Mei said to Xiao Mao from the side.

She also wanted to see the showdown between Xiao Mao and Alice.

"It seems very interesting!" Tiantong also showed interest.

"The battle between Xiaomao and Alice was really exciting." Speaking of the battle, Xiaozhi's reaction was interest.

"Since you all said so, I have no reason to refuse." Xiao Mao nodded slightly after hearing this.

"That's great!" Alice was very happy when Xiaomao agreed.

"But it's getting late today, so how about we hold the battle tomorrow?" Xiao Mao suggested, glancing at the sky outside the Pokémon Center which was already darkening.

"Okay." For Alice, as long as Xiao Mao agreed, nothing else mattered.

"Then we'll fight again tomorrow."

After chatting briefly with Xiaozhi and the other two, Xiaomao, Xiaozhi and the others said goodbye to each other and returned to their rooms to rest.

...the dividing line...

The next morning, at the battle field in the Elf Center, Xiao Mao and Alice stood on opposite sides of the field, facing each other.

Tiantong, who took the initiative to act as the referee, stood between the two of them, ready for the fight.

"Mei, what do you think was the result of this battle?" Looking at the two familiar people on the field, Xiaozhi couldn't help but ask.

"Needless to say, Xiao Mao is the winner." Mei said as if it was a matter of course.

"Compared to Xiaomao, although Alice is very talented, there is still a big gap between them!" Touzi also gave her own explanation.

"Is that so?" After saying that, Xiaozhi looked towards the venue.

"Now begins the battle between Xiao Mao and Alice. Each side can send out three elves. When all three elves of one side lose their ability to fight, the game ends!"

When Tiantong saw Xiaomao and Alice who were ready, he immediately announced the battle rules that had been agreed upon long ago.

"Now please send out your elves!" Tiantong took on the role of referee very responsibly.

"Let's go, Dragon-headed Hamster!" Alice sent out her elf immediately after Tiantong finished speaking.

Soon, Alice's dragon-headed hamster appeared on the field.

"Dragon Head Hamster!" Xiao Mao took a look at Alice's level 50 Dragon Head Hamster and took out a Poké Ball.

"Lucario, I'm leaving the Diglett in your hands!" To deal with Alice's Diglett, Xiao Mao chose Lucario to fight.

"The game begins!" Tiantong shouted immediately after looking at the two elves on the field.

After Tiantong finished speaking, he quickly left the venue.

"Let's go, Dragon Head Hamster, use Rock Slide!" At the beginning of the battle, Alice commanded the Dragon Head Hamster.

Under the command of the Dragon Head Diglett, pieces of rock attacked Lucario one after another.

"Lucario, beat me with the bone stick!"

Lucario gently stretched out his arm, and soon a blue energy drumstick appeared in his hand.

When Lucario wields this bone stick, it crushes the incoming rocks one by one.

"Metal Claw!" After seeing that Rock Slide was useless against Lucario, Alice immediately launched the next wave of attacks.

Upon receiving the order, the dragon-headed hamster waved its two claws glowing white and rushed towards Lucario.

"Lucario, let's go too!"

Lucario was not to be outdone, and also held the energy bone stick and fought with the dragon head rat. After the two sides fought on the field for a while, they found that they could not do anything to each other, so they retreated in front of their trainers.

"Dragon Head Rat, use..."
