Why is my Pokémon acting a little weird?

"So now - let's welcome today's contestants. First of all - let's welcome the darling of our Magic City Gym, the genius with super powers - Nian Hongyu!!"

Under the host's announcement, the contestants walked into the competition venue one by one. Among these people, one will become the next master of the gym.

Whether it was the audience at the scene or the audience watching online or on TV, they all couldn't help but get nervous.

Who will get this spot?

Who will be the next museum owner after Elder Nian Hai?

Chapter 473 [Song]

Everyone is paying attention to this game.

Not only local people in Shanghai, but also other people who want to become trainers, people who used to be trainers, and people who are interested in Pokémon will pay attention to everything that happens here.

"In addition to the above contestants, let us welcome the first place winner of the first round of popularity voting, our Magic City Gym's elite trainer and the super popular contestant who won the exhibition match - Nancy!"

Amidst the host's obviously biased introduction and the audience's increasingly wild cheers, Naz walked onto the stage in a slightly tight superpower costume and waved to everyone.

To be honest, from Qiao Ran's perspective, this outfit is not that good-looking, but on Naz, it looks quite good - as expected, whether clothes look good or not is not a problem of the clothes, but a problem of the person himself.

"This kid's popularity is truly terrifying."

Old man Nian Hai stroked his beard. Nancy's recent performance was really too good. Even he could not find any fault with it. She handled her job as an elite trainer very well, as if she had been working in the gym for more than ten years.

This child is like a meteor that suddenly descended. Even before he became the owner of the museum, he already has such appeal. If he becomes the owner of the museum in the future, wouldn't he be even more terrifying?

"...Sister will definitely not lose." Nian Xiaoxiao was still cheering for her sister wholeheartedly. Nian Hai glanced at her and nodded with a smile.

"Yes, yes, Hongyu is a very good kid too."

But compared to Nancy, it's still a little bit worse.

Although Nian Hai didn't want to admit that his granddaughter was inferior, to be fair, the gap between them was quite obvious.

"It looks like I can get some popularity again." Qiao Ran sat in his seat, watching the game happily. When he met Nancy before, he had already asked Rotom to follow and film the whole process.

As for himself, he can take a break for a while and watch the game as a spectator, which seems to be pretty good.

"First round! Let's welcome our first two contestants, Fang Gao from Chengdu and Jiang Liang from Hangzhou!"

The first two to appear in the round were two middle-aged men with short hair. They both walked onto the competition field with their eyes closed. They were obviously practitioners of super powers, and the Pokémon they sent out were all Pokémon with super power attributes, which was very consistent with the theme of the Magic City Gym.

"..."

Qiao Ran didn't often go to watch other people's games, unless they were people he was very familiar with - such as Lilia and the others. After he reached a certain level, this should be his first time to go.

Watch other people's competitions who are not as strong as him.

"Well, did you see anything? Who do you think will win?"

Zhu Lan, who was sitting to the left of Qiao Ran, raised a question. It was boring to just watch the game, and it would be better to add some variety.

The results of the guessing game can not only be dramatic, but also train the trainer's observation skills. If you want to become an excellent trainer, this ability is definitely indispensable.

If possible, Zhulan also planned to take this opportunity to tell them some key points of the competition. After all, she would probably have to leave soon.

"I think it's... the one on the left?"

"Um……"

Several people started talking at once, and even old man Nian Hai was aroused a little interest, but when he looked over there, he decisively shut up.

Wait—why is this guy here too?

This is the champion...it really belongs to the champion!

Old man Nian Hai recalled the fear of that day in his heart. He still didn’t fully understand how his trump card fell.

The competition for the gym owner will last for one day, and the competition system used is an elimination system. Each contestant has only one chance, and if defeated, he will be completely disqualified.

Only the one who wins to the end can become the ultimate winner.

Qiao Ran and others watched from morning to afternoon, and the number of contestants was eliminated from the initial dozen to the final four.

These four people are all very powerful psychic power users. The weakest Pokémon has reached level 40 and above. Nancy and Nian Hongyu are among them. The final winner will be decided in the afternoon competition.

Taking advantage of the lunch break, Qiao Ran also took Rotom to charge his phone, and played around with Nian Xiaoxiao, Xia Fei and the others nearby. According to his previous thoughts, he would probably have to leave the city soon, so it would be nice to use this time to spend more time with them.

I don’t know when I will see my cousin again. Maybe next time, she will already be a Pokémon trainer.

"You said you wanted to know the latest popular songs and who the more popular stars are?"

"Well, can you tell me about it?"

In this world, although Qiao Ran was a native of the place, he had no interest in popular things and knew nothing about them. Compared with little girls like Nian Xiaoxiao, he was still far behind.

"Why are you asking that? That's weird."

Xia Fei looked at Qiao Ran suspiciously, but ultimately didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she opened her phone and started a science course with Qiao Ran.

Qiao Ran tried his best, did his best, and tried his best to write down some of it. In order to let Qixi Bluebird master it, he really tried his best.

Popular songs——

What would it feel like if Pokémon sang these songs?

Just like the humanized Qixi Bluebird, she not only has a beautiful appearance, but also a varied singing voice. Her voice is more melodious than any other that Qiao Ran has ever heard. She is a natural born excellent singer. If she has the right song, she may be able to unleash even greater potential than Qiao Ran imagined.

——Every Pokémon has a place to display its abilities, and the value of a Pokémon does not necessarily have to be reflected in battle.

Even in the human world, it is impossible for everyone to become a trainer. Everyone has their own division of labor, and the overall situation will become better.

If Qixi Bluebird can really develop this ability, then... I won't have to worry about video materials every day in the future.

Even Pokémon can become idols.

Chapter 474

The lunch break passed quickly, and the afternoon game was about to begin. Qiao Ran and others rushed to the competition venue without stopping, preparing to meet with Naz before she went on the court.

Nian Xiaoxiao was also preparing to go to the contestant lounge to see her sister.

However, when Qiao Ran and others appeared in front of Naz, her expression was a little surprised at first, but she quickly calmed down and looked away.

"What... why did you come all the way to see me?"

He said something nonchalant, but his unnatural expression still gave himself away.

Besides, how could Qiao Ran, who could feel the power of the waves, not feel her true emotions?

This guy is simply like a tsundere's sister opening the door for a tsundere, he is so tsundere.

"You must keep going, Miss Nazi!"

"Yeah, you'll be fine!"

Lillie, Mei and the others were cheering for Nancy. As their predecessors and the trainer they admired, they naturally believed in Nancy's abilities. Even Takeran sent her blessings to Nancy.

"Come on, win the rest of the games."

Let the people of this world see the strength of the trainers from the Pokémon world.

Zhulan did not say this out loud, but she believed that since Nazhi worked so hard in this world, she must have had such thoughts.

They have no place to go back to for the time being, but as people in the Pokémon world, they still have

With the pride in their hearts, their love and understanding of Pokémon are not inferior to anyone else.

Several other people gave Naz their blessings, and Naz accepted them all with a smile. However, she soon turned her attention to the only guy in the field who hadn't spoken.

"And you... aren't you going to say anything?"

"Huh?" Qiao Ran was stunned for a moment. Wait...is it wrong for me not to speak?

"No, they've already said it. I was about to say the same thing."

"Then just say it."

As if forcing him to speak, Nancy's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Are you scared?"

"Afraid? What should I be afraid of?" Qiao Ran was provoked by her and denied it directly. However, just when he wanted to follow the girls' example and send his blessings to Naz, he hesitated when he saw the eyes of the people around him.

"So...so, that's it...come on."

"I can't hear you, speak louder."

Naz put her hands to her ears and pretended not to hear clearly, but the curve of her mouth betrayed her.

This guy... is just trying to tease me, right?

This place was the backstage of the contestants' competition, and there were many staff members coming and going. Of course, Qiao Ran couldn't just sit there and wait for death. Suddenly, his mind got hot, and he stepped forward and held Naz's hand.

"Eh?"

Nazhi didn't seem to expect Qiao Ran to suddenly do such a thing. Not only did the expression on her face freeze, but her body was also fixed in place.

"Come on, I believe you will win."

With more proactive actions, Qiao Ran found his own rhythm. He also recalled the reason why he came here in the first place. It was not to make a joke or to retaliate for something as trivial as revenge - but to encourage her so that she could win the final victory.

Qiao Ran lowered his head slightly and looked into her eyes seriously.

"Keep going, my heart will always be with you."

"Eh?"

Naz seemed to have not reacted yet, but a blush flashed across her face quickly, and then a powerful superpower burst out from her body, directly bounced Qiao Ran's body away.

"What are you doing!"

"..."

Qiao Ran was directly bounced against the wall of the lounge, and then slid down little by little. Everyone around him stared at the scene in amazement. Many staff members quickly gathered around, wanting to see Qiao Ran's current situation. They finally felt relieved until Qiao Ran stood up again as if nothing had happened.

Wait...was this guy just thrown against the wall? How did he recover so quickly?

Is there something not quite right with all of you?

“Qiao…Ran…!”

Naz stared with her eyes wide open, the blush still on her face. In her opinion, this guy was simply dancing in her minefield. Fortunately, this was not a very strict public place, otherwise, there would be no way to deal with this matter.

"Get out, get out of here!"

Nazi directly kicked out Qiao Ran and the others. Qiao Ran's sudden behavior just now made her break down her defenses, and now she needs to recover. Not only Qiao Ran and his group, but also other staff members were kicked out.

"Our hearts have always been together..."

Miyue and Meiyi opened their dead fish eyes and looked at Qiao Ran beside them speechlessly. They didn't know what this guy was thinking at the time. This was not encouragement at all, this was just making trouble, right?

If Nazhi doesn't perform well later, Qiao Ran will be fully responsible.

Also, isn't this a bit wrong?

"Um...I'm actually..."

Qiao Ran didn't know how to explain it. He was just going with the flow. Since Nazhi always had the initiative, he couldn't help but turn the tables.

"Look, isn't that how it's played out in movies and anime? They say something like that before the game, and then suddenly their potential explodes during the game..."

"Who would say such a thing? Also, don't make any moves."

Meiyue glared at Qiao Ran. This guy's relationship with Lillie was obviously obvious, but he never pointed it out. Now he was flirting with other people here. Did he really think she didn't exist?

If Lillie's relationship with him didn't improve, then...why did I choose not to travel with them in the first place?

"I hope she's okay and can change her mood."

Zhulan also sighed. She was shocked by Qiao Ran's sudden action. If she put herself in his shoes, she might also call out her Pokémon to fight back.

Nancy's competition is about to begin. This competition will determine her fate for a long time to come. This is very necessary both for herself and for the wanderers in the Pokémon world.

They could only cheer for Naz in their hearts.

...If we lose, then blame it on Qiao Ran.

Chapter 475 [Start]

"It's finally afternoon! Let's call out the names of our final four contestants - let's begin! The final competition of the day

Bar!!!"

"Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho!!!"

In the vast arena, the host's opening remarks once again ignited the audience's enthusiasm. This host didn't seem to be a gym employee, but rather someone who hosted some variety show on a TV station. However, at this moment, he was able to stir up the emotions very well, and with the help of several Rotom cameras moving around the venue, he was able to capture very good images.
