I'm not a Pokémon succubus.

Lost.

My journey to the Quartz Conference has ended.

"Hey."

Sighing, Xiaozhi felt his legs become weak.

"Ash!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came into his ears.

Xiaozhi quickly looked towards the stands.

On the stands, Aisha was standing there, giving him a thumbs up.

"Ah...Coach Ai."

Looking at the boy who gave him a thumbs up and looked at him tenderly with a smile on his face even though he lost, Xiaozhi suddenly felt his eyes a little moist.

"Pi, Ka..."

At the same time, in Xiaozhi's arms, the scarred Pikachu also tried hard to open his eyes.

Its little hand rested on the back of Xiaozhi's hand, stroking it gently.

"Pikachu..."

"Pica~"

Xiaozhi couldn't help but laugh.

I feel like my body is full of strength again!

......

The Quartz Plateau is very cool at night.

To celebrate Aixia's advancement to the quarterfinals of this Quartz Conference, Xiaogang and Bilan held a celebratory dinner for Coach Ai.

It just so happened that Professor Oak and Hanako were also at the Quartz Plateau. Today's duel between Shiro and Satoshi had also ended with a winner, so they came along as well.

"Ah, I'm pissed off!"

At the dinner table, Xiaozhi devoured the delicious food in a rage, saying, "I almost won!"

"what?"

Xiao Mao covered his mouth in a pretentious manner, as if he had heard some extremely funny joke.

"No way, you don't really think you can beat me?"

"Your Charizard can't use Solar Beam, and it's quadruple countered by Rhydon. It can't even hit my Rhydon. And then my Rhydon's sharp rock attack is too much for your Charizard to handle even with 100,000 HP. How do you plan to defeat me? Are you planning to use Charizard's low HP to unleash a fierce attack?"

"Ah, it's so annoying!"

Xiaozhi couldn't refute Xiaomao's words at all, and started to eat the big piece of meat with an angry look on his face.

Xiao Mao, on the other hand, smiled and picked up the bowl with satisfaction, and happily took a bite of the rice.

"Oh, the feeling of winning is so great!"

"I kill you!"

Xiaozhi pounced on Xiaomao directly.

The twin stars of Pallet Town began a wild and indiscriminate fight.

"Hehehe~" Dr. Oak stroked his white beard and smiled in a Buddhist way.

"If one of you two can make it to the quarterfinals, I'll be very satisfied."

Hanako smiled silently at Xiaozhi. As a mother, her eyes flashed with heartache and relief when she looked at her child.

"Well~"

Jin waved his hand, interrupting, and said, "Actually, after a year since debuting, Xiaozhi has made it to the top 16 of the League Conference. This is already a good result... No, it should be said that it is excellent."

Jin looked at Xiaozhi and nodded.

Well, he quite likes this child.

Although this child is a little stupid and foolish.

However, such bizarre tactics that deviate from popular thinking are very much to Ajin's liking.

This child should be a good candidate for indiscriminate fighting.

"so!"

Ajin promised with confidence.

"Xiaozhi, since you're done fighting now, why don't you come with me to the Johto region during this time? I'll teach you the essence of indiscriminate fighting!"

"Eh?"

Xiaozhi raised his head and looked at Ajin with suspicion.

"Really useful?"

"Hey, kid, how come you don't know what's good? Master Ajin will teach you. I guarantee you'll be able to kill Xiao Mao after you return!"

silver:"......"

Silver next to him first looked at Jin who looked boastful, then looked at Xiaozhi who looked confused and not very smart, and sighed.

Two idiots...identification completed.

Now, Ruoye Town is going to be lively.

"it is good!"

Xiaozhi got up from Xiaomao and agreed to Ajin's proposal without hesitation.

"Oh~" Dr. Oak seemed to have remembered something and said, "I remember that Jin lived in Ruoye Town. There happened to be an old acquaintance of mine living in Ruoye Town, Dr. Kongmu."

He looked at Xiaozhi and said, "If you really plan to follow Jin to the Johto region, I have a job for you!"

"what?"

While Professor Oak was fooling Satoshi, Brock sighed.

"Coach Ai made it to the quarterfinals, and Xiao Mao also made it to the quarterfinals. It's a one in four chance... maybe you'll run into each other tomorrow."

"what?"

Xiao Mao was stunned for a moment.

Then, he widened his eyes and looked at Coach Ai, who had been eating quietly, with horror.

He watched all of Ai's first five matches...

Whether it is a head-on attack or dirty tricks, Coach Ai's strength has been fully demonstrated in these five matches.

Although Xiao Mao was confident in his own abilities, he was not stupid either. He naturally knew that he was no match for Coach Ai.

This...If I really meet Coach Ai in the next game, then Xiaozhi and I will just be eliminated one after the other.

But think about it the other way around.

After Xiaozhi accepts the teachings of Director Ai, he can get the green badge from Xiaomao's brother Qinglv.

Well, if I could personally experience the feeling of fighting against Coach Ai, it would definitely be an important boost to my own strength improvement.

"I'm fine."

After figuring it out, Xiao Mao was no longer afraid.

He has a clear understanding of his own strength, so he will not be blindly confident or inferior.

On the contrary, he gave Coach Ai a fighting smile.

"Maybe I'll be the first person in this Quartz Conference to force out Coach Ai's second Pokémon!"

"The next battle is a six-on-six full-scale battle. It would be embarrassing if you gave away all six Pokémon and still couldn't force out Coach Ai's second Pokémon." Xiaozhi complained very accurately from the side.

Xiaomao: "..."

Veins popped out on Xiaomao's forehead.

"asshole!"

I can't bear it!

Xiaomao, like a stranger in the new town, pounced on Xiaozhi.

Dr. Oak: "Young people are so energetic."

Everyone ignored the childhood sweetheart in the brain and started eating happily.

After Bilan was full, she took out a stack of information.

"Look, I've collected the list and information of the top eight contestants in this Quartz Conference."

"Oh!"

Xiaogang came over to show his support.

Although Coach Ai felt that it was unnecessary, it was Bilan's good intention after all, so he still raised his head in cooperation.

Well... this may be inevitable. After the business was snatched away by the trio, they had nothing to do and found something to do for themselves.

"cough~"

Facing Coach Ai's curious gaze, Azure cleared his throat and said, "In addition to Coach Ai and Xiaomao, the top eight of this Quartz Conference also includes Mangchong from Green Shade Town in the Hoenn region. His representative Pokémon is Alega. In today's battle, that Alega directly defeated two of his opponent's Pokémon. It seems to be his trump card Pokémon."

"Ah."

Coach Ai fully agreed.

Alakazam is indeed a fully charged ace Pokémon. In the future, he will master Alakazam's Mega Evolution, and his strength will be even stronger.

"Also, another trainer worth noting is the monk from the Bell Tower in Johto. He's a master of Ghost-type Pokémon."

Azure said a lot, listing the remaining people's fighting methods and representative Pokémon.

Coach Ai and Xiao Mao took her words to heart.

"correct."

At this time, Xiaoxia looked at Coach Ai and said, "Coach Ai, which Pokémon are you going to use next?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's attention was focused on him.

In the five battles that Coach Ai has fought so far, he has used a total of four Pokémon, and as expected, these four Pokémon have defeated the opponents.

Well, there are three more matches to come, and everyone wants to know whether Coach Ai will still send out three Pokémon to win the game with a clean sweep?

"Um......"

This question stumped Aisha.

He thought for a moment and said, "As for the quarterfinals and the semifinals, it depends on the situation. However, as for the finals, I have made a decision."

"In the finals, I plan to send out the Caterpillar."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present changed their expressions.

Especially Xiaoxia.

The scene in the Cerulean Gym Challenge where Coach Ai violently killed her with Caterpillar is still fresh in her memory.

That outrageous Caterpillar was able to crush her as a gym leader back then. How strong is it now?

"Hi~"

Xiaogang also took a breath of cold air.

Others may not know, but he knows it very well.

At that time in Dasha Valley, Hunter J and the hunters of the Hunter Association triggered a huge beast tide.

At that time, Coach Ai went to the canyon entrance alone to block the attack. He started with Caterpillar using a strange but ridiculously powerful move, killing more than half of the wild Pokémon in the beast tide in one blow.

That Caterpillar definitely possesses strength above the King level. With that kind of power, if you say it's a Champion-level Pokémon, Xiao Gang would believe it...

You're using a Pokémon that's supposedly a champion level Pokémon to compete in the Quartz Conference?

Are you overestimating these contestants a little?
