You are not allowed to be a Pokémon Trainer!

Chapter 92 Departure, Northward to the Countryside!

The climate and soil differences between regions are still quite significant. Some Pokémon have evolved into new forms by gradually reproducing in different regions.

For example, Kitakami Township has the "Moon Form" of Ember Bear from the ancient Sinnoh region, also known as the Seishi area.

This shows that the differences between that place and other regions should indeed be adapted to in advance.

Wait, if everyone thinks that way.
Doesn't that mean that Kitakami Township is currently a gathering place for outstanding young trainers from all over the world?
Xia Chi's eyes lit up.

This meant something very important to him—

A new, high-quality mob spawner has arrived!
Thinking of this, Xia Chi nodded happily and replied, "Okay, Sister Lin, remember to send me the departure time later."

After returning home from the school team, Xia Chi searched his memory for information about Beishang Township.

In the game, Kitakami Township is a location in the Crimson DLC, and its status is similar to that of the Isle of Armor and the Crown Tundra in Galar.

It is not large in area and has not formed an alliance, so it can hardly be called an independent region.

The same is true for Kitakami Township in this world.

Located between the continents of Padia and Sinnoh, it is under the jurisdiction of the Padia League.

The awkward thing is that Beishang Township is far from everywhere.

The disconnect from the main body of the alliance has led to the relatively backward development of Beishang Township in all aspects, with its infrastructure at the level of a small, third-tier county town in the Donghuang region.

However, precisely because of this, the natural scenery of Beishang Township, which is rarely interfered with by humans, is quite beautiful.

One of the main focuses of President Ye Ci's work after taking office is to develop the tourism industry in Beishang Township.

For example, promoting summer festivals, holding Pokémon Academy summer camps, selling specialty agricultural products such as apples, and marketing the "Six Northbound Selections" which are on par with the "Ten Views of Padiya," and so on.

After competing with several major leagues, including Hoenn and Unova, to win the right to host this year's Pokémon Academy Tournament last year.

In an unprecedented move, Ci chose to hold this highly anticipated competition in the remote and impoverished Beishang Township.

The goal is undoubtedly to raise the profile of Beishang Township in order to boost the local tourism industry.

It's unclear how effective it will be.

However, Xia Chi felt that instead of racking his brains to develop the tourism industry, it would be better to build a breeding base for unique and powerful Pokémon such as the Begonia, Honeycomb Orochi, and [Moon Mode] Umbreon.

We aim to establish the reputation of "Hometown of Monthly Bears" and let the world experience what true beauty in strength is!
Lin Qunzhi booked her flight three days later, on January 25th.

It's been about a month since the Pokémon Academy Tournament opening ceremony on February 18th.

Xia Chi has made a plan; this period of time is a good opportunity to meet with trainers from all over the world who are participating in the competition.

Accumulate more fear points to open treasure chests and level up, so you'll be more confident when the competition officially begins.

Our Pokémon's current strength is still very shallow, so winning the second round of battle is crucial!
Lin Qunzhi also sent the rules for the Pokémon Academy Tournament.

Although it is called the "College Competition", this competition is not actually a competition between colleges, but an individual competition.

It means the World Pokémon Academy (Trainer) Tournament, not the "Academy Tournament".

Two Pokémon Academies in the Donghuang region have slots for the competition: one is Shanghai University, where Xia Chi is located, and the other is Huaqing University to the north.

When Lin Qunzhi personally selected Xia Chi to represent Shanghai University in the competition, many people were still dissatisfied.

After all, you're a freshman who just arrived, and you've taken up one of those precious three competition spots?
Especially the one who was consistently ranked third on the school team.

However, a month later, no one was holding any objections anymore.

From the top to the bottom of the rankings, every member of the school team representing the highest level of combat power at Shanghai University's Pokémon Academy was swept by Xia Chi without exception.

Thus, Xia Chi naturally joined the three-person team that went to the Beishang Township World Championship.

------

Saturday, April 1.

Business class on a flight to Table City in the Padiya region.

Tire Miao knelt on Xia Chi's lap, staring blankly at the endless white clouds outside the porthole.

"Nya." This is Nya's first time on an airplane.

Another first time with Xia Chi.

You can't bring Pokémon on a regular economy class plane unless it's inside a Poké Ball.

Business class does allow you to bring a small to medium-sized elf.

Larvitar is too heavy, Misdreavus is too light, but Tirion is just the right size and weight to be carried on board.

Xia Chi naturally brought it out to experience it.

The organizer, Padiya Union, helped Xia Chi book the round-trip tickets; otherwise, Xia Chi wouldn't have been willing to spend tens of thousands of yuan on a business class ticket.

"Sister Lin, why don't we go directly to Beishang Township? Geographically speaking, wouldn't that be closer?"

A senior student named Lu Yiyi, who was holding a Tokki Gu, leaned out of the seat behind her and asked.

Lin Qunzhi, who was sitting next to Xia Chi, explained: "There are no direct flights from Shanghai to Beishang Township. To be precise, apart from some airports in the Padiya region, there are no flights to Beishang Township."

It's definitely a remote and impoverished area.

That's not right either, at least Beishang Township has an airport.

There's a city next to Shanghai with a decent economy that still doesn't have an airport.

Xia Chi thought to himself.

Lin Qunzhi added, "Once we arrive in Zhuotai City, we will transfer directly to Beishang Township without stopping. So if anyone wants to visit Padiya, just let me know after the competition."

The atmosphere at Pokémon Academy is very relaxed.

They're all adults, and trainers at that; they should have been responsible for their actions long ago.

"Sister Lin, I'm not going back with you guys after the competition."

Xia Chi seized the opportunity to interject.

Lin Qunzhi raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you going to travel to Padiya?"

The senior student Lu Yiyi behind him said with a smile, "Teacher Shuiye was specially invited by the chief champion of Padia to study the Padia Giant Sinkhole."

Xia Chi twitched the corner of her mouth.

It's really strange to hear your online name offline.
Lin Qunzhi became even more curious.

"Mizuya-sensei? What do you mean?"

Lu Yiyi chuckled and said, "Sister Lin, you probably don't watch live streams usually. [Shui Ye] is Xia Xuedi's streamer name. He's a big star in the gaming section!"

The Pokémon in his arms smiled and replied, "Pok-du-ee~"

Xia Chi awkwardly gripped the ground with her toes.

Please, please stop talking, senior!

You can say these things in the live stream, or even send messages on Pogaman or in the group!
Can we please stop the executions in person?!
Xia Chi is a typical example of someone who is shameless both online and offline.

Sitting next to his senior, Lu Gang, the calm and collected top player on the school team, nodded and said, "Indeed, I've also watched Teacher Shuiye's live stream. It's very interesting, and you can learn a lot of tactics from it."

Xia Chi gritted his teeth.

Even you, senior with thick eyebrows and big eyes, didn't let me off the hook!

Lin Qunzhi, who had been recommended the idea by the two students, stroked his chin and muttered to himself, "Is that so?"

Just as I was about to open my phone to search, I realized that I was on a plane and my phone had no signal.

She patted Xia Chi on the shoulder and said, "I'll give you some more attention and likes after we get off the plane, right?"

Xia Chi: "."

Tired, let's destroy it.
