He knows Pokémon better than me.

After registration is completed, you can wait for the competition to begin.

"It's almost time. Ahem, I'll go up and host it then."

Glancing at his watch, Xiao Mao coughed to clear his throat, grabbed the microphone and walked onto the stage.

As a big shot in Pallet Town, he doesn't need to hire an additional host to host the conference, he can do it himself with ease.

It’s a pity that he can’t participate in the competition after becoming the host, otherwise he would also like to try the happy battle between babies.

"Hello everyone, I am Xiao Mao, the Gym Leader of Evergreen. Welcome everyone to participate in the first Baby Cup Conference in Evergreen City!"

Xiao Mao stood on the stage, raised one arm, and read the opening remarks aloud.

He was extremely popular, and as soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience burst into warm cheers and applause.

Xiaozhi raised his eyebrows, he also heard the enthusiastic screams of many female audience members.

"Xiao Mao, you kid"

It’s almost catching up with him, the Alola Champion, in terms of popularity in the Alola region!
"I won't go into detail about the restrictions on the Pokémon that can participate in the battle, and the rules of the battle are normal random elimination matches, and the top three of the Pokémon Cup will be decided in the end~"

"Then all three of you will receive generous prizes from me~!"

Hearing this, there was another round of applause from the audience, and the eyes of Xiao Qu, Xiao Jin and other newcomers all lit up.

"Before the game starts, let me remind you not to overburden your 'baby'~!"

"Then the competition begins, and the first contestant will be announced immediately!"

A huge electronic screen was temporarily installed above the ring, but there were no photos of the contestants, only their names flashing quickly.

beep!

The screen froze, and the words displayed on the top were "Contestant Xiaoxia vs. Contestant Taro"!
"Hmm, Xia? Oh, Xia is here too!"

Xiaozhi reacted and remembered that Xiaoxia, Xiaogang and the others would also participate in the competition. They seemed to be on the other side of the arena and they had not met yet.

After a while, Xiaoxia and an insect catcher boy walked onto the stage.

The former is very popular in the Kanto region. He is the owner of the Mermaid Pavilion in Cerulean City. He received a round of applause as soon as he appeared on the stage.

On the other side, Taro was wearing shorts and carrying a bug net. He was not very old and was dressed like a typical bug catcher.

The next moment, both sides threw out Poké Balls at the same time.

boom!boom!
The one Taro sent out was a green caterpillar that was everywhere in the Evergreen Forest nearby, while the one Xiaoxia sent out was a.
Up to duck!
"Interesting, is it Psyduck?"

Xiaozhi's interest was piqued. Misty's Psyduck can be considered a "battle-hardened" person.

It seems that it has no intention of evolving into the more handsome Gotha Duck, and has remained the same over the years.

The battle between the two "babies" officially began.

"Green Caterpillar, strike first! Use Silk Spin!"

Taro took the lead in attacking, and the caterpillar in front of him spit out fine threads, trying to wrap Psyduck into a big rice dumpling.

"Hehe~ This move is useless to us~ Psyduck!"

Xiaoxia chuckled and gave orders casually.

"Huh?"

Psyduck was holding it in his arms and tilted his head.

Although he looked stupid, his eyes instantly glowed blue. His exquisite telekinesis quickly surged out, and he easily froze the silk-spinning in mid-air.

With a thought, the caterpillar spun out silk and turned back, quickly wrapping itself into a big rice dumpling.

Then the telekinesis spread out, and Psyduck directly lifted the Caterpillar and its cocoon high up, and then smashed it to the ground.

boom!
The silk threads spread out, revealing the caterpillar's head, which had lost its ability to fight.

An instant kill without any suspense!

"Contestant Xiaoxia, advance to the next round!"

Xiao Mao immediately said loudly, he was not surprised. "Well done~!"

Xiaoxia rubbed the three tufts of hair on Panda's head with a little pride on her face.

Although she was a little disdainful of this clumsy Psyduck back then, now that it has fully mastered its telekinetic power, this Psyduck has become terrifyingly powerful!
After taking back Psyduck, Xiaoxia was about to step down.

"Xiaoxia, this way!!"

She suddenly heard shouting coming from the other side of the arena. She looked in the direction of the sound and saw a familiar figure in the crowd.

Xiaoxia's eyes suddenly lit up and she quickly walked down the stage from Xiaozhi's direction.

"Ah Xiaozhi! When did you come? I thought you weren't going to participate!"

There was a hint of complaint in Xiaoxia's tone.

"Hey, I just arrived~"

Xiaozhi smiled and touched his nose. At this time, Xiaoxia also noticed Ajin and the other two next to them, so she smiled and greeted them one by one.

Xiaojian had seen them many times, and Ajin and Chris were not strangers either. They were all friends, so Xiaoxia simply stayed here and watched the game.

It just so happened that Teacher Gang on the other side was trying to courteously approach the beautiful ladies around him, so she might as well pretend not to know him!
"The second match! Chris will face Xiaojin!"

When Xiaomao's voice fell on the stage, Chris and Xiaojin couldn't help but look at each other.

"Is the opponent a friend of Xiaozhi-senpai? Well, he doesn't look that powerful."

Xiao Jin nodded politely to Chris, a gentle and mature older sister who was not aggressive at all.

Chris chuckled in response, and the two walked up to the ring side by side, and without delay, they pulled out their Poké Balls at the same time.

boom!boom!
The one Xiaojin sent out was naturally the one he had just received, Charmander, the three great creatures of Kanto.

The "baby" sent by Chris was a baby with lips.

"Get ready to fight, Lip Jump~!"

"Mi hum~!"

Different from the usual baby-like voiced ones, this one had a stern face and looked quite serious.

She was wearing a star pendant on her collar, which was obviously not a temporary gift from Chris.

"Is this the guy Chris picked?"

Ajin has a smile on his face. He is actually an old "baby"——

Chris was captured a long time ago, but since it would turn into Big Mom after evolving into Little Lip, this Little Lip has always refused to evolve.

The star pendant she is wearing is actually a carved immutable stone.

The level itself is not low!

"Ice attribute? That's to our advantage!"

Xiao Jin doesn't care about all that. With his attribute advantage, he might be able to defeat one or two seniors today!
"Direct attack! Charmander, use Spark!!"

The little fire dragon nodded and opened its mouth to spit out five or six balls of flame, which were much more powerful than when it was just in the research institute.

However, Chris directly called out the big move:

"Lip Jump, use Blizzard!!"

Xiao Jin: “?”

The little girl opened her mouth as wide as possible, and suddenly a biting and cold wind blew out wildly, even freezing the sparks into ice cubes that fell down.

Squeak!

The blizzard raged past, freezing Charmander into an unconscious ice sculpture on the spot. Xiao Jin, who was at the back, also shuddered all over.

The latter hugged his shoulders, trembling all over, and his face turned a little blue.

Wait a minute, isn't this a baby cup?
Why are all the games a one-shot kill?! (End of this chapter)
