Manor Lord in the Pokémon World

The first contestant to take the stage was a boy wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses, who walked onto the stage with his right hand in his pocket and a cocky look on his face.

"Alright, Sun Dachuan from Guchen Town, please begin your performance."

The boy threw a Poké Ball, and with a flash of white light, a Pokémon that looked somewhat like a Poké Ball appeared on the field.

He's a naughty boy.

Host Vivian looked on with anticipation, "Oh, it's Naughty! Naughty is an Electric-type Pokémon, capable of using many different move combinations. Let's see what kind of performance Sun Dachuan will bring!"

Sun Dachuan waved his left hand and shouted, "Magnificent! It's a big explosion!"

boom!

A plume of black smoke rose from the field.

"Hmph! How about that?" Sun Dachuan said coolly.

Audience members present: ...

ark:……

Vivian: ...

Vivian has been a host before; she's seen it all.

I'm sorry, she's really never seen a scene like this before.

That's it? That's all?

Is it over with a self-indulgent, unskilled big bang?

"Haha...it was really a very interesting performance..." Vivian was at a loss for words, and wiped her sweat with a handkerchief.

She suddenly felt that her career had hit a Waterloo, and that she was going to lose face here today.

"Let's take a look at the judges' scores."

Conkenstein gave it a score of 0, saying it was "completely lacking in aesthetic appeal."

Sukisa: "What a terrible performance, I didn't like it."

Both are 0 points.

Miss Joey: "Overall, this little rascal is pretty healthy, but as for his performance..."

She hesitated for a moment, then gave it a consolation score of 10.

Kind Miss Joey.

The maximum score is 100 points.

"Unfortunately, our first contestant's performance was only so-so. Now, let's welcome our second contestant."

Fangzhou originally thought that the first player's opening explosion was the limit, but he didn't expect there to be other experts behind him.

The Golem, unable to control its rolling towards the audience, tried to use its water cannon to propel itself into the air and perform a show, but instead crashed into the audience.

For a moment, the entire venue was in chaos and extremely lively.

Audience: Other people perform for money, you perform for your lives!

Vivian was completely exasperated; from the very beginning until now, she had no idea how to explain it.

After hosting shows for ten years, I feel as helpless as a greenhorn today.

If I am guilty, please let Groudon crush me with Fly, instead of making me host the Grand Festival.

Glug glug...

On the contestant's bench, Kirlia's Poké Ball moved.

Seeing so many talented performances, it suddenly felt it could win.

At the same time, I felt lost, wondering what the point of practicing so hard was.

Fangzhou sighed, "Oh no, this graduate student has stumbled into a primary school student's trap."

These contestants really came just because they saw the competition rewards, without even preparing a few moves or performances beforehand. They were completely unprepared.

This also reflects that the Grand Contest isn't very popular and nobody pays attention to it, which explains why they need to offer generous rewards to attract participants.

Finally, it was the connoisseur Gilru's turn to appear.

Mikoli was right behind him in line. Ark got a very late number and was the last one to appear.

Gillu released an Electabuzz.

Its yellow body, as bright as lightning, is covered with black stripes like a tiger, and has a black lightning bolt symbol on its belly.

"Electabuzz, use Electric Wave!"

Yellow lightning bolts appeared around the electric beast, forming a cage.

Then, walls of light appeared all around, merging with the lightning and completely sealing off the cage.

Finally, there was the thunderbolt attack, where lightning struck the electric beast in the cage, illuminating its entire body with a dazzling light.

"My performance is about art!" Gilru exclaimed excitedly.

The light wall and the electric shock wave formed a display case.

Electabuzz is like a work of art on display, sparkling and radiant.

The performance was indeed brilliant, especially with the contrast provided by the geniuses who came before.

The judges unanimously gave him a score of 90 without hesitation, making him the only contestant to pass so far.

Fang Zhou's expression turned serious.

As expected, he is passionate about collecting all kinds of art. Even Pokémon and legendary Pokémon are just high-end art pieces in his eyes.

A madman who doesn't care even if the entire world order collapses and is on the verge of destruction.

Unfortunately, he is now helpless against him. There are still ten years until the movie, and he probably hasn't even started his plan to capture the legendary beast yet.

Qi Shu shook her head as she looked at the live stream camera. Fang Zhou heard her lower her voice behind her and say, "I don't like this show. It's all yellow, which represents electricity and is my favorite color, but it feels inexplicably depressing."

Fangzhou didn't like it either.

Next, it was finally Mikoli's turn to appear.

"Our next contestant is Wallace, the prized student of our renowned performer and Sootopolis City Gym Leader, Mr. Adam!"

Wearing a white robe, Mikuri appeared on the stage, raised his hand high, revealing a Poké Ball in his palm, and gently tossed it, a flash of white light appearing.

"Fu~~~"

Milotic, the true god of the Grand Contest, has arrived!

She used Spectral Protection as soon as she appeared, which added even more brilliance to the entire Pokémon.

A gasp of amazement rose from the audience behind him, clearly captivated by the performance.

Seeing Milos, Vivian suddenly felt her career as a presenter come back to life.

"Oh my god! It's Milotic! The most beautiful Pokémon in the world!"

On the field, Mikkel snapped his fingers, and Menason immediately understood.

"Fu~"

It opened its mouth and spat out a stream of blue water—its water cannon skill.

The water cannon continued upwards until the upward force weakened, and it began to fall in all directions.

"Now! Freeze Ray!"

"Fu~"

The icy blue light quickly froze the fountain-like water cannon, transforming it into a magnificent, shimmering ice sculpture in the air.

"The final breath of the dragon!"

Milotic unleashed a green beam of light, destroying the ice sculpture that had begun to fall due to gravity, turning it into ice crystals that drifted down!

Milotic and Mikkuri bowed gracefully in farewell amidst a sky full of ice crystals.

Thunderous applause immediately erupted from all around!

"Magnificent! Absolutely magnificent! The combination of water and ice!"

"The water cannon's spray control is extremely precise, achieving the best visual effect just before it's completely depleted!"

"The timing of the freeze-light's release is perfect, freezing the water at its most brilliant moment, capturing the flowing rhythm as an eternal work of art!"

"The final dragon's breath was the finishing touch, not only preventing the ice sculpture from falling to the ground but also bringing the performance to a climax!"

Vivian was almost moved to tears. After being silenced for a while, she finally regained her sense of being a host.

"Now for the most exciting moment: please welcome the judges to score!"

Ding!

Conkenstein gave it a perfect score without hesitation: "Making full use of Pokémon moves to achieve amazing and spectacular effects, that's the kind of Contest performance I want."

Sukisa: "A magnificent performance, I love this."

Both are 100 points.

Miss Joy smiled slightly, "This Milotic's move control is excellent."

Ding!

Both are 100 points.

"Wow! All the judges unanimously gave him a perfect score of 100! Congratulations, Michael!"

Fangzhou thought to himself, "As expected of Teacher Mi, the number one in the Grand Contest."
