Chapter 189: Daigo is no longer at the peak, and the Dodo is completely useless [Please subscribe and vote]

After the Kapu Four finished their performance, the lottery ceremony began on the big screen above the audience seats.

Su Sheng is not among them. Following the system of the Galar All-Star Game, only the winner of the tournament can challenge the champion Dan Di.

In this Alola Friendship Tournament, only the final winner can challenge Su Sheng.

Although there was a feeling of looking down upon the strong people from other regions, no one had any objection.

After the battle on the Quartz Plateau, even someone as arrogant as A'du admitted that Su Sheng was stronger than him.

Well, temporarily.

"Wow—"

When the battle list came out, the scene fell into an uproar.

Among the densely packed list of matches, there are several eye-catching combinations.

Sinnoh League Fire King Daye VS Gosho.

Who is the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings of Sinnoh between Daye and Wusong is a hot topic in Sinnoh.

This time it seems there may be an answer.

Kaluni vs Doracena.

The battle for the handover between the old and new champions of the Kalos League.

Daiwu VS Mikri.

The battle between the Hoenn Twins is also attracting much attention.

The question of who between Daigo and Mikoli will succeed Genji as the champion of Hoenn has also attracted much attention in Hoenn.

then.

It's Yeci VS Adu.

This lottery made Ross at the VIP desk frown slightly, and he glanced at Kukui who was sitting in the corner, secretly reducing his presence.

Didn’t we agree to give the Yulong Ferry to our Dan Emperor?
Kukui was secretly ashamed.

You all want to fight Dan Di, there is nothing I can do.

On the live broadcast room barrage:
[Wow, the first round is so exciting, is there anyone who wants to place a bet? I bet on Wusong to win between Daye and Wusong. Daigo's trump card, Infernape, has a fighting attribute, so I think Wusong still has the upper hand.]

[You were just a spectator before, right? Wusong's trump card bronze bell has steel attributes, and is restrained by fire! ]

[Haha! I am dying of laughter. Two noobs who were killed instantly by the Rocket Team's leader, the Beedrill, in the Quartz War are now competing with each other.]

[Where did the clown come from? What's wrong with being killed in seconds? At least they dared to go to the battlefield. You must be scared to death just watching at home.]

[Kaluni is expected to replace Dorasena. It is a bit unreasonable for Dorasena, a top star, to be the champion for so many years.]

[No way, the Kalos region is too peaceful. I doubt that Kaluni has reached the champion level either.]

[The battle between Daigo and Mikoli is the most valuable battle in the first round]

……

……

The next day at ten o'clock.

The Manalo Arena was packed.

The eyes of the whole world are focused on Alola's official live broadcast room.

Inside the male and female players' lounge.

Many of the league's top trainers looked at the large broadcast screen on the wall of the lounge.

The screen is divided into two halves, with Daigo and Mikoli walking out of the player passages on both sides.

"Isn't it that Hoenn wants to determine who will be the champion between the two of them through this battle?"

In the female players' lounge, Kaluni spoke.

It was such a coincidence that the lottery was drawn in the first round. No one would believe that there was no inside information.

Logically speaking, Daigo only needs to defeat Genji, the current Hoenn champion, and he can be crowned the champion title after returning.

But the Hoenn Alliance called Mikoli, a gym trainer, and the purpose is self-evident.

"Under normal circumstances, Mikoli is still inferior to Daigo, but Daigo's condition is not normal right now."

In the Ether Paradise next to the Manalo Arena, Su Sheng watched the live broadcast of the competition on his mobile phone and commented.

Although Su Sheng felt that the champions in the animation "Journey" had their IQs lowered greatly.

But the ranking of the eight masters is still of certain reference value.

No matter what, Daigo would have ranked third, while Mikoli didn't even make it into the top eight.

All I can say is that there is a gap between champion levels.

But before that, Daigo's ace partner Metagross single-handedly resisted Dark Lugia's Dark Charge.

It is said that the situation is not good.

"Doctor, the special plane to Carlos is ready."

At this time, Pico's voice came from outside the room.

"Okay, hard work."

Su Sheng replied.

The Alola Friendship Games will be held for five full days.

As the Alola champion, he only needed to fight the final winner of the tournament on the last day.

During this period, Su Sheng wanted to strengthen his combat power and make final preparations for the decisive battle with Liu Bo.

Of course, no matter how much you practice in five days, you won’t become much stronger.

Unless you have a spiritual time house.

but……

Su Sheng glanced at the stone that Kaluni had given him and placed on his desk. To be precise, this thing was called a "key stone".

"If you want to increase your strength in the short term, this is the only way."

Su Sheng stood up and put the key stone into his pocket.

After opening the door, there were only two old partners, Rika and Kazuki.

Sakaki was among them.

Among Su Sheng's companions this time was Sakaki.

In fact, the search for MEGA Evolution Stones is more about strengthening Su Sheng’s own Pokémon.

It’s better to say that it helps these three people to strengthen themselves.

Because among Su Sheng's partners, only three Houndooms have the ability to MEGA evolve.

Although Su Sheng will not treat his partners differently based on their strength.

But Dai Dai, Lu Lu, and Bi Bi are indeed just second-tier players in Su Sheng's team.

There is not much point in helping them awaken their MEGA evolution, at least not when fighting Liu Bo.

And Rika's Houndoom, Kazuki's Slowpoke, and Sakaki's Beedrill.

The significance of these three getting MEGA evolution is quite huge!
Especially the last one.

"I'm sorry, A-Sheng, I have to trouble you to strengthen my Beedrill."

Sakaki patted Su Sheng's shoulder.

"No big deal uncle, after all, you are responsible for monitoring Uncle Liu."

Su Sheng took his teammates to Kalos to find the evolution stone, while Sakaki secretly went to Sinnoh to keep an eye on Liu Bo.

Although I have a locator, I always feel uneasy if I don't keep a close eye on this master-level old madman.

……

……

When Su Sheng started to act separately.

In the Manalo Arena, Daigo and Mikoli had walked to the center of the arena and stood facing each other.

"It feels like a long time ago that we last played against each other in such a formal setting."

Mikkelly spoke first, half jokingly.

Daigo smiled back, "Let's have a battle with no regrets."

Seeing the two of them admiring each other, many fujoshi in the live broadcast room exclaimed that they were touched.

At this time, in a small box in the lower right corner of the live broadcast room, Hu Tao, wearing headphones, smiled and said:
"The atmosphere between Mr. Daigo and Gym Master Mikoli is very good. They have been friends for many years. I believe they will present us with a wonderful duel."

"Next, let us invite our Alola Pokémon Professor Kukui, who will be the referee of this friendship game."

"Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself. I'm Hu Tao, the commentator for this tournament. Please take care of me~"

The boys in Ruoye Town were typing away on their keyboards like crazy to cheer.

When Shirona in the female players' lounge saw Hu Tao, the light golden eyebrows on her beautiful eyes frowned slightly.

"What's wrong? Takeran-chan."

Kaluni asked, noticing her best friend's strange expression.

"No... nothing, I just thought the commentator looked familiar..."

Sirona whispered to herself.

Kaluni blinked and was about to ask again, but then Kukui's voice came from the TV:
"Game start!"

In an instant, everyone's attention was drawn back to the battle between the Hoenn twins.

"Leave it to you! Metagross!"

Daigo kissed his Poké Ball in a somewhat showy manner. His handsome face made this gesture attract cheers from the female audience.

"Gah!"

The heavy body of the Steel-type Pokémon fell to the ground, and the audience vaguely felt that the entire battlefield shook.

"Send the trump card at the beginning?"

Dan Di, Yu Longdu and others in the male contestants' lounge were quite surprised.

"It's understandable. After all, it's just 3v3."

Adek interjected.

If it is a 6V6 team battle, then the ace will be released at a more appropriate time.

But if it's just 3V3, you can definitely use it from the beginning to get a good start, or even defeat two opponents at once, or even achieve a one-on-three victory!

"Is it really that simple?"

Genji, the current champion of the Hoenn League, narrowed his eyes.

……

"You're so serious right from the start, Daigo. So here I am..."

Mikoli's eyes lit up and he took out his Poké Ball.

"Leave it to you! Swampert!"

The Poké Ball opened in mid-air and a white light flashed.

A strong blue Pokémon landed.

It has characteristics of fish and canine.

It turned out to be Swampert, one of the three starter Pokémon in Hoenn!
"Use Swampert..."

Naqi, the ex-girlfriend in the audience, seemed to be thinking about something.

Asha, the granddaughter of Mura, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Hoenn, who just reached the age of a novice trainer this year, blinked and said:
"I remember that Swampert's position in Mr. Mikoli's lineup was defensive."

Mikoli and his master Adam are both trainers who specialize in water.

In order to deal with the Electric-type Pokémon that the Water-type hates, both the master and the apprentice cultivated meat shield Pokémon.

Adam cultivated a Catfish King, while Mikoli cultivated a Swampert. Both are water Pokémon with ground attributes and are immune to electricity.

Although it is four times restrained by the Grass type, don't forget that the Water type is often very good at Ice type moves.

Therefore, it is impossible to defeat top trainers relying solely on attributes.

Of course, it is even more undesirable to always play against the attributes like Xiaozhi did.

……

"We're going to be unceremonious, Daigo."

Mikoli, who was born as a coordination trainer, was gorgeous in his words and actions, waving his right hand and pointing forward as if dancing.

"Swampert! Earthquake!"

Swampert roared excitedly, raised his two arms, and smashed them hard on the ground like an angry King Kong.

Waves of circular shock waves splashed up from the ground, rushing towards the giant golden monster in succession.

"Megalodon, protect!"

Daigo backhandedly swung.

A light green barrier emerged from the surface of the giant monster, but the impact force of the earth was temporarily isolated.

At this time, a scratching sound of electric current was heard from under the giant monster, captured in close-up by the drone.

More than eight digit viewers in the live broadcast room discovered that arcs of electricity were streaking under the giant limbs of the Metagross.

He actually lifted up that huge body!

Electromagnetic levitation that can keep Pokémon upright for a certain period of time!

"Water cannons!"

Mikoli's command sounded again.

Swampert jumped up, and a thick water cannon fell down at a 45° angle from the sky in front of Metagross.

When the water cannon was halfway fired, the protective barrier disappeared on its own!
boom!
The water cannon hit Metagross directly in the center of his forehead.

Boom!
The giant golden monster that had just floated up through electromagnetic suspension fell to the ground again.

This time, the entire venue shook violently.

"Idea hammer!"

Daigo's expression remained calm as he suddenly spoke.

The giant golden monster, which was knocked to the ground by the water cannon in the previous second, had a light purple halo blooming between its eyebrows. It became brighter and brighter in a second, wrapping its entire body in it.

Then it bounced up and hit Swampert like a missile burning with purple flames.

In the air, you have no escape!

thump—

A huge noise echoed in the air of the arena, and the mind hammer hit the target completely.

"Great! This is a battle between the league's top trainers. Let's do our best, Pikachu!"

In a plain-looking single-family house in Pallet Town, Xiaozhi sat cross-legged in front of the TV, looking down at the Pikachu in his arms jumping and shouting.

"Pika pika!"

Pikachu nodded heavily.

"...sit back."

A certain mute couldn't help but speak.

He can't see anything.

"Double return!"

Before Xiaozhi could move his butt back, Mikoli's command came again.

Under the watchful eyes of the audience.

I saw that the giant swampert, who was hit head-on by the thought hammer in mid-air, was not knocked away.

Instead, he held tightly to the Hoenn Quasi-God who had hit his stomach.

The next second, he made a Raiga bomb gesture and slammed himself and the Metagross together in the center of the battlefield.

boom!
A huge sound came out.

In the center of the battlefield, there appeared a large pit with a diameter of seven or eight meters and a depth of more than one meter.

Swampert turned Metagross upside down in the center of the deep pit, like pulling out a weeping willow.

Kukui narrowed his eyes and observed the situation of Metagross carefully.

At this time, Swampert let go of his opponent and took two steps back.

Kukui, who was acting as the referee, also saw through the Metagross's state and raised the flag to pronounce the verdict:
"Metalloquin loses the ability to fight, and Swampert wins."

As soon as he finished speaking, the first Poké Ball icon with Metagross printed on it next to Daigo's portrait on the big screen dimmed.

"No way?"

Seeing this scene, the most surprised ones were the group of trainers from Hoenn.

Fujiki exclaimed: "Is Mikoli's Swampert's defense so strong? It was hit head-on by a Mind Hammer, but not only did it not fly away, it was able to use Double Retaliation in that situation?"

Adam twirled his beard. "Rather than saying Swampert's defense is too strong, it's more like Daigo's Metagross is not as strong as before."

"what?"

Asha, Furong and other younger Hoenn trainers I can understand what Adam meant by this.

Du Juan, who is considered a childhood friend of Daigo and also a stone lover, said: "Is it the sequelae left by resisting the attack of Dark Lugia?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone remembered.

Before, Metagross had managed to withstand Dark Lugia’s Dark Charge!

Adam sighed and said, "That Metagross can no longer serve as Daigo's trump card."

The other Hoenn trainers also looked gloomy.

At this time, Daigo in the field had already thrown out the second Poké Ball.

"Come on, my new partner!"

The whole world's eyes lit up when they saw the second Pokémon sent out by Daigo.

It turned out to be a silver iron dumbbell.

Glitter Iron Dumbbells!
"Good fellow, worthy of being the son of the richest man in Hoenn."

Su Sheng on the plane exclaimed.

After the original Metagross’ strength was greatly reduced, it immediately made a new shining iron dumbbell.

But I remember that when Daigo participated in the World Championship in the future, he used Shiny Metagross.

"But using iron dumbbells in a competition of this magnitude... isn't he funny?"

Kazuki complained beside him.

"Daigo probably just wants to let this shining iron dumbbell feel the atmosphere. He probably has already given up winning this game."

Su Sheng speculated.

The result was exactly as Su Sheng expected.

The shiny iron dumbbell that Daigo had just obtained could only fight against Mikoli's Swampert for a while before it could no longer hold out after being hit by a mud shot.

Seeing this, Daigo decisively replaced the baby Pokémon with his last partner, Armored Bird.

Although he defeated Swampert by taking advantage of his air combat advantage.

But Mikoli immediately released the toucans.

After an air battle between the two sides, the Armored Bird defeated the Toucan with a slight advantage.

But after Mikoli finally took out his trump card, Milotic, he easily took out Armorbird with a Dragon Wave.

With only one red blood iron dumbbell left, Daigo decisively chose to forfeit.

In this way, it can be said that the next Hoenn champion after Genji is definitely confirmed to be Mikoli.

But any trainer with a little knowledge can see it.

Daigo's overall strength as a trainer is above Mikoli's.

The reason why he lost.

Or maybe it was because the ace duo was too badly injured in the previous battle and suffered from a serious illness, and could no longer return to their peak.

While giving applause to Daigo and Mikoli.

Many viewers subconsciously thought of another unlucky guy who suffered heavy losses in the Quartz vs. Ace game.

If Daigo's trump card is just not at its peak, then that person's trump card is completely useless.

And it is obvious that the Alola officials, as the organizer, also know what the audience wants to see.

Next game——

Quartz League reserve champion Adu VS Padiya region current champion and league president Yeci.

"Well, everyone, I'll excuse myself for a moment."

Ye Ci, who was originally sitting at the VIP counter on the second floor with several guild presidents, stood up and said.

Roz held his chin with an unhappy expression.

If Ye Ci got there first, wouldn't his plan to use Yulongdu as a stepping stone to become the Dan Emperor be ruined?
Roz looked coldly at the red-haired hedgehog who had already entered the venue, and muttered to himself in a low voice:
"It's a little bit helpful, Headquarters Champion, you don't want to embarrass yourself in front of the whole world, do you?"

……

……

Inside the arena, Ye Ci, who was standing opposite to him, smiled and said to Yu Longdu: "Have you recovered from the previous battle in Quartz? Don't force yourself."

"Hehe~ You just have to be careful not to embarrass yourself in front of the whole world."

Yulongdu was too lazy to shake hands with this smiling tiger. He turned around and walked back to the command desk, leaving Yeci with the back of his head.

"Just as the rumors say, his personality is terrible."

Ye Ci muttered to himself and made a comment before turning and walking towards the podium.

"Ahahaha~ The atmosphere is very heated. It seems that President Yeji and King Adu are both looking forward to this battle."

Hu Tao in the commentary room laughed and tried to smooth things over.

"Leave it to you, Crystal Flower."

Ye Ci returned to the command platform and gently threw the Poké Ball.

What appeared was a strange Pokémon in the shape of a cone, floating in mid-air.

"what is that?"

Being pulled back to his seat by Red, Xiaozhi, who didn't even recognize all the Pokémon in the Kanto region, widened his eyes.

The next second, the dark blue petals around the crystal flower bloomed.

Countless poisonous spikes fell to the ground and buried the battlefield.

"President, you are serious."

Yasaku, the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings of Padia, sighed.

Many times when Ye Ci faced challengers, he would always take out the Crystal Flower last.

And now, she actually took it out at the very beginning... It seems that she really wants to defeat Yulongdu.

"Use poison? What a boring trick!"

Yulongdu lifted his cloak with his left hand, took out a Poké Ball from behind his belt with his right hand and threw it out with force.

"Crush it!"

　The performances of many champions in "Journey" are not as good as those in the Sinnoh League, and so many top trainers seem to have been reduced in intelligence.
