Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 448 Dragon Master Mingyou, Give Qibana Some Strength (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Motostoke, located in the center of the Galar region, is steeped in history. Many of its buildings incorporate the style of medieval city walls. It was once the largest city in Galar, but was replaced by Gate City a few years ago.

To participate in today's reshuffling competition, Mingyou and Xiaozhao came here from Spike Town, accompanied by Xiaoyou, Mary, and Dandi. Since the concert is still three days away, they all came to join in the fun.

"Chibana is very strong. Even if I don't prepare in advance, it will be quite difficult to beat him. If you don't bring your best, it will be very difficult to defeat him."

Emperor Dan crossed his arms and spoke with a smile.

He had watched the match between Mingyou and Mikoli and knew that it was just an ordinary open tournament, not worth both sides showing their full strength. But the alternate tournament was a different story, not to mention that there was less than a week left before the World Championship ended.

If you don't show some skill, staying at the Masters level isn't easy!

The others were also curious whether this reshuffle match would reveal Mingyou's true strength. Even after the topic came up, Xiaozhao looked at her curiously, but she knew that Mingyou would definitely take it seriously, though it was hard to say just how serious she would be.

Hehe~

Mingyou smiled slyly. Of course, he was prepared. His opponent was Dragon Storm, so he would use Dragon-type Pokémon to fight with all his might and bring the audience a visual feast of a dragon battle.

Despite his appearance, he is actually a Dragon-type Pokémon Master. He has many Dragon-type Pokémon at home and can easily put together three. Moreover, he does not want any Pokémon to be absent from the World Championships, just like he did in the Junior Cup.

Everyone has a chance to shine!

Upon learning that he would be using a Dragon-type Pokémon to challenge Raihana, everyone couldn't help but feel excited. Who wouldn't be curious about using the opponent's most powerful type in their opponent's home turf? Leon even sent the news directly to Raihana himself.

Only Xiao Zhao slightly raised her head, her fingers lightly stroking her chin, and began to seriously count in her mind how many Dragon-type Pokémon Ming You had. But as she counted, the smile on her face froze, her eyebrows slightly raised, and she looked at Ming You. Could it be...?

Arriving at the venue for the rematch, the Quan Guan Arena, unlike the Gongmen Arena, does not adopt the open-air design of a football stadium. Instead, it is more like a large medieval castle with a roof structure.

It is said to be built to recreate the architecture of an ancient castle in the history of Motogakushi City. It is very impressive when you first see it, with a strong historical atmosphere.

But the only constant is the bloodthirsty spectators who come specifically to watch the game...

Mingyou headed to the contestant entrance alone, while Xiaozhao and Ponpo were led to the audience area by Dandi. With the champion leading the way, they had no trouble along the way. Meanwhile, in Spiketown, Meloetta and the others stopped their final rehearsal and began watching the live broadcast with great anticipation.

Just as he arrived at the players' room, he heard the sound of a camera shutter being pressed. He raised an eyebrow and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw a dark-skinned man wearing a hoodie with a dragon tooth-like hat and athletic shorts, holding a Rotom phone and smiling as he took a selfie.

Perhaps sensing their gaze, the other person put down their phone, looked in their direction, stepped forward, and said with a smile, "Wow, finally meeting a real person! It's truly an honor to meet such a famous person as you."

"There are no big celebrities here..."

Mingyou responded with a smile and shook hands with the other party. She naturally recognized the man in front of her as her opponent in this reshuffle match. It seemed that he had come here specifically after receiving the message from Dan Di.

With his hands back in his jacket pockets, Cibanar took a step back and chuckled as he replied, "Don't be modest. Your autographs are worth a lot of money these days. Many people think you'll be the first player to defeat Dan."

"Huh?"

Mingyou was slightly taken aback. His own signature?

Goodness, there are actually people reselling this!

Kibana waved his right hand, his smile seemingly becoming much more serious. Looking at Mingyou in front of him, he continued, "But I must tell you, the one who will defeat Dan Emperor... will definitely be me, Kibana!"

"Wow, that's hard to say."

Mingyou was in no way inferior to her opponent in terms of momentum.

Before the match even started, the two were already facing off. Kibana, increasingly intrigued, put his hands back in his pockets, raised his head slightly, and grinned: "I heard you're going to challenge me with a Dragon-type Pokémon?"

"Is that not allowed?"

"sure!"

With that, Cibanar turned and left. As he exited the players' room, he glanced back, smiled, and waved, saying, "Then let me see if your Dragon Legion can bring joy to Dragon Storm!"

"..."

Watching the other party leave after uttering harsh words, Mingyou scratched his head and smiled slightly. Although he didn't want to go too far, he had no choice but to go this far. So, he decided to give him a little more intensity... What is a true dragon master!

He followed suit, putting his hands in his pockets, turning around and walking into the players' tunnel...

As the two contestants walked into the arena, an incredibly enthusiastic cheer erupted from the audience. One was the most popular internet celebrity in the Galar region, and the other was an absolute heavyweight.

Ever since they saw Naruto reach 9th place, they have been looking forward to the battle between the two. All the players who have defeated Kibana so far are regional champions, and he also has a record of defeating regional champions, which shows his strength. It is said that he can easily win the championship if he changes to another region, but he has stayed in the Galar region for the sake of Leon.

As for Naruto, although many of his battle records have been made public, everything about him remains a mystery, and no one knows what Pokémon he will pull out from his crotch.

Those watching this reshuffle match weren't just the people at the scene. Inside the Marocmon Group in Gongmen City, Galer Alliance President Loz was also watching the live stream on his computer.

Just as both fighters took their designated positions, the rules for the match were randomly drawn on the large screen in the boxing arena. Amidst the anticipation of the crowd, as expected…

A 3v3 singles battle where you choose three out of six!

"Just as I expected..."

Mingyou chuckled and shook her head. After all, this was Loz's home turf, and he probably really wanted to see her truly demonstrate her strength.

Upon seeing the rules, the opposing player, Zibana, smiled and put away his Rotom phone. His demeanor instantly changed, transforming from a gentle, smiling young man into a fierce and ruthless warrior on the battlefield!

"bring it on!"

He grinned, raised his left hand slightly, making a dragon claw shape, and held the Poké Ball in his right hand, ready to throw it at any moment.

In the realm of Dragon-type Pokémon, he was confident he wouldn't lose to anyone... You mean the Johto region champion, Dodo? Isn't that a Flying-type? It's not exactly a pure Dragon-type trainer.

Mingyou smiled calmly, took out a Poké Ball from his backpack, and the white dragon mark on the back of his right hand shone brightly. Even Reshiram was interested in this battle between dragons and even agreed to participate.

"Stop it, stop it..."

He wouldn't go so far as to let Reshiram play; that would be too much of a bully.

As the referee, riding Aegislash, gave the order, the two poised Pokémon simultaneously launched their Poké Balls amidst enthusiastic cheers from the audience.

"Waaah!"

A red figure swiftly swept across the field, barely visible to the naked eye, flying past the desert dragonfly and circling the field before drifting to a stop in front of Mingyou.

At this moment, the audience no longer needed the slow-motion Rotom shot to finally see the true face of this Pokémon. It was actually... the Infinite Pokémon—Latias?!

"Huh?!"

In an instant, gasps of surprise erupted from the audience.

Even the live stream chat was filled with exclamation marks and question marks of shock.

"He even has Latias?"

Leon crossed his arms, his face filled with disbelief. Such a rare legendary Pokémon was a rare sight indeed.

On the field.

As Cibana looked at Latias, his fighting spirit grew even stronger. Was this the main force of the enemy's dragon army? But getting past his dragon storm would not be such a simple matter!

"sandstorm!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the desert dragonfly flapped its wings, and a sandstorm violently rose up, almost instantly engulfing the entire arena, making it difficult even for the spectators to see what was happening on the field.

"Waaah!"

The sand is very dirty!

Latias instantly bristled, intimidating the opponent with a fierce roar. After finally getting a chance to participate in a competition, couldn't he just let himself have some fun?

But then it suddenly realized that the enemy had vanished, as if hidden in the sandstorm. But desert dragonflies don't have sand camouflage properties, how strange...

So, it must be here!

Latias aimed upwards, and almost the instant Desert Dragonfly was about to unleash Dragon Dive, it didn't hesitate, gathering its dragon energy and firing a Dragon Pulse upwards.

A loud explosion was heard in the air, and the desert dragonfly fell to the ground, suffering severe damage.

"Not bad reaction time!"

Qibana also began to praise it, even Dan Di had suffered from this move before.

Mingyou accepted his praise. Although Flygon doesn't have the Sand Cloak ability, its instinct is to find food by hiding in sandstorms. Latias always has the power to sense minds, and he found the other party's location almost instantly, which is why he was able to use Dragon Pulse so quickly.

Then, the finishing blow...

In less than three minutes, Cibana's Desert Dragonfly collapsed to the ground, while Latias was almost unharmed, easily gaining the upper hand with sheer power.

Mingyou maintained his smile, "My Dragon Legion is merely the afterglow of your Dragon Storm."

There was a mistake.

You are the challenger!

The Dragon Legion will surely crush this dragon storm and sail towards a new world even more distant!
