Pokémon development strategy

When drawing the first set of lots, Shen Qi's eyes widened as he scanned the 21 numbers drawn, but he did not find Miss Qun'er's number.

The same goes for the second group...

"This is too torturous."

Ordinary spectators don’t feel anything, but as drivers or their relatives and friends, every draw is very tense.

There are more than ten groups, and the unlucky ones may have to go through more than ten rounds.

"Shansheng signed up for the trainer driver specification... and there's no sand bell cactus here either."

Miss Skirt shook her head, she knew that the sand bell cactus would not participate.

T3 level events have high prize money and great risks. If you are eliminated in the preliminary round, you will not gain anything and the cost of participating in the event will be wasted.

Sandbell Cactus only participated when his trainer Imedie was still healthy, and took 10th place in the main race, and was certified as a T3 level driver.

With her family in financial difficulty now, Sha Ling Cactus has no intention of participating in any competitions. Instead, she wants to take advantage of the fact that most capable racers are running in T3 and she can run a few regular season races to pick up some leftovers.

Chapter 196 Sponsorship

Elf High School, principal's office.

Shen Qi sat properly and reported yesterday's grouping situation.

"Miss Skirt and I are in Group 6, and the preliminary round will be at Cape White."

Located in the coastal area north of Vermilion City, the lighthouse of Masaaki in the animation is on the white cape.

The spring, summer, autumn and winter competitions are held in four fixed large cities in the Kanto region, but the venues are not necessarily located in the cities, such as Cape White.

“Hohoho…”

Principal Gui's signature laugh rang out.

"The White Cape is a good place. It stretches to connect Yuhong City and Huangjin City."

The place is indeed beautiful, and most of the terrain is similar to that of the 6th Island, so it will be much easier for Miss Skirt to drive.

Moreover, Principal Gui received a suitable sponsorship.

Just as he and Shen Qi had expected a few days ago, once the Elf High School announced the news that its students were participating in the T3 level competition as an honor, the islanders who were familiar with the place would definitely sponsor it enthusiastically.

This kind of sponsorship is unacceptable. It is simply taking everyone's money for nothing and will not bring any benefits in the end.

The sponsorship that Principal Gui is talking about now is different. It comes from a high-end resort on the 5th island.

"Ms. Akiho!"

"Yes, it was she who sponsored it."

At the end of the summer vacation, Shen Qi experienced the beginning of the "The End of Intelligent Machinery" script in a high-end resort, and also met Qiu Sui there.

Due to the existence of radio waves, the flow of customers to high-end resorts was more or less affected, causing losses to Akiho.

It was Shen Qi who provided the investigative clues about the interference of radio waves, guided the Security Agency to find the transport ship, and solved the problem of the high-end resort being troubled by the mysterious radio waves.

Therefore, Akiho offered to sponsor as soon as she heard the news.

"She's really grateful to you."

Shen Qi was actually quite surprised when Principal Gui said this.

At that time, he certainly had no intention of helping Akiho resolve the troubles in her industry. He just heard the story from Li Yizi and thought there was an emotional script, so he took the opportunity to take a look while taking advantage of his cargo transportation business.

It has been a month since the Rocket Team warehouse incident ended, and Shen Qi never thought that he owed a favor to Qiu Sui.

It was an unexpected success, but Qiu Sui, who had always been grateful, decided to sponsor 10 b this time.

“That’s a bit too much sponsorship.”

If it were Lazan from other clubs, 10b would seem too shabby and might not be enough to put an advertising banner on the guardrail.

But for individual riders like Shen Qi and Miss Qun'er, it is indeed amazing that a sponsorship of six figures can be achieved before they have achieved decent results.

"Wow... Akiho's personal feelings must be involved." Principal Katsura explained, "Also, high-end resorts can really attract customers by placing advertisements."

How much profit can be obtained by putting the publicity budget into racing depends on how hard Shen Qi and Miss Qun'er can fight.

Being eliminated directly in the first round of the preliminary competition, Qiu Sui’s advertising exposure was low and too shallow, so she must have lost money;

Miss Qun'er and Shen Qi were able to advance to the second round, and their outstanding performance earned them some media interviews, so the 10b sponsorship from the luxury resort was a small profit.

If she really makes it to the finals, even if she comes in last, Akiho's sponsorship will definitely be worth it.

"Shen Qi, if you think this sponsorship is too generous, then work hard to repay Miss Qiu Sui."

"Not only do I want to repay Akiho, I also want to win as much honor for Spirit High School as possible."

Speaking of gratitude and thanks, Shen Qi should be most grateful to Elf High School.

This is not just a polite remark to the school leaders; it is a gratitude that comes from the heart.

In the remote environment, the Elf High School means much more to Shen Qi than a regular school, and is even not inferior to the value that a famous school can produce.

If Shen Qi needs anything, Elf High School will do its best to meet it, and Principal Gui will also do his best to send students to higher and farther places, or to recognize the beauty that belongs to them.

Therefore, Shen Qi sincerely hopes that he will be able to repay the Elf High School and bring benefits to the 6th and 5th Islands.

I should be able to do it if I become a very good driver... Unfortunately, now I can't even make it to the first round of the preliminaries.

"Haha, don't have such a big psychological burden, just do it."

Principal Gui pulled down the brim of his hat, which was already pulled very low, and said, "You don't have to be the center of attention, and you don't have to shoulder a great mission. Spirit High School hopes that every student will have his or her own brilliance."

Thanking Principal Gui again, Shen Qi turned his gaze towards the sofa with a bit of trepidation.

On the sofa was a female security guard in uniform.

Junsha.

She had also participated in the conversation before, but did not mention whether Shen Qi was allowed to take Porygon away.

The question remains unresolved.

Of course, Shen Qi hopes to bring Duoduo to participate in T3.

Without 100% strategy and efficient communication, and without time to practice multiple skills, just relying on "electromagnetic levitation" can play a big role at the critical moment.

In the future, as Shen Qi's Pokémon, Duoduo will definitely participate in racing-related competitions. It would be good to have some T3 level competition experience at the beginning.

However, there was nothing he could do if the Security Bureau did not allow it, and Shen Qi still had to thank Principal Gui for his efforts.

Junsha didn't say anything, and Shen Qi asked with a bitter face.

"Ms. Junsha, are you going to let me bring Porygon to the competition? You've been keeping me in suspense all morning, please stop keeping me in suspense."

There are four days left until the preliminaries, which means Shen Qi has to leave for Yuhong City tomorrow to stay for two days. It is the closest to the White Cape where the race was chosen.

Shen Qi actually felt quite aggrieved. Even if he was misunderstood as a suspicious person who would do unspeakable things to Pokémon, he would not have attacked Porygon.

She/he is just a duck!

How could he be killed by Shen Qi? !

Before Junsha could respond, there was a bang on the teacher's office door.

Principal Gui called out, and the two people outside pushed the door open and came in.

One of them was Officer Shinichi from the 5th Island Security Station, who had met Shen Qi while investigating the Rocket Team warehouse incident.

Shen Qi was wearing the [Charm Pendant] at the time, and Zhenyi and several strong men in the security station had a very good impression of Shen Qi.

This guy has a sense of justice, strong initiative, and is very charming!

Next to Shinichi was a thin girl with her yellow hair casually tied up in a big bun on her head, the same hairstyle as Jianzimian.

The orange vest, casual shorts and slippers make the girl look a little sloppy.

"Principal Gui!"

Shinichi put his legs together, straightened his back and said hello.

Against his tall and strong figure, Principal Gui looks like a frail wax figure.

But in the entire seven offshore islands, no one disrespects Principal Gui.

"Hohoho, come and sit down."

Shinichi rarely interacted with Principal Katsura and seemed a little awkward, his broad hands gently groping and introducing the woman next to him.

"She is Mizuki, a researcher in our police department. She has recently come to help manage the Pokémon transport and storage system on the offshore islands and assist in the investigation of Team Rocket."

Chapter 197 Security Escort

Shen Qi narrowed his eyes slightly.

Mizuki...

She appears in the Sinnoh region, Jiayuan City. After opening the full collection, she will give the player an Eevee.

Mizuki is an expert in the field of computer technology and has helped improve the Pokémon transport and storage system.

The Rocket Team incident led by Athena this time was exactly the use of Porygon to steal other people's Pokémon from the teleportation system. Mizuki was transferred to assist in the investigation and it was a professional match.

but…

What Shen Qi didn't understand was why Junsha waited for Shinichi and Mizuki.

Whether or not to take Duoduo to participate in T3 level events should not be decided by them.

"Shen Qi." Junsha said, "It's really surprising that you can form a bond with Porygon."

During the meeting today, Principal Gui specially tested Shen Qi's compatibility with Porygon in front of Junsha.

A 30% compatibility level will allow students at Pokemon High School and other colleges to take Pokémon away with them.

A fit of 50% is considered full marks.

The compatibility between Shen Qi and Porygon is not perfect, but fortunately it is still above the passing line.

Watching Porygon smoothly enter Shen Qi's Poké Ball, Junsha had to admit that the bond between the trainer and the Pokémon had been established.

"In fact, Porygon is not as scary as everyone imagines."

"We certainly hope that Porygon is a kind Pokémon that doesn't need to be constantly monitored by the police and can live a normal life in society."

This time when Principal Katsura mentioned Porygon, the Police Department had to give him some face. Besides, during the one month that Porygon had stayed at Pokémon High School, he did show signs of communicating harmoniously with other Pokémon.

Being taken by Shen Qi to participate in the T3 level competition further proves that Porygon has the ability to display its capabilities in the right field.

Shen Qi was a little excited after hearing Junsha's analysis.

"Oh! So..."

"Don't be too happy too soon. Although you are allowed to take Porygon away from the Spirit High School during the competition, you have to meet the conditions."

Shen Qi will participate in the Vermilion Leaf City Autumn Tournament. No matter if he is eliminated in the preliminaries or makes it all the way to the end of the main competition, Shinichi and Mizuki will follow him throughout the whole process.

"what?"

This is really surprising.

It’s okay for Zhenyi, he just sent someone to keep an eye on Shen Qi and Porygon to avoid any mishaps.

Mizuki is an important computer researcher in the National Security Agency system, and has made great achievements in the Pokémon transmission system.

It's really a bit exaggerated to have these two people participating in the competition together.

"It's not that I don't trust you, nor do I have too much suspicion of Porygon." Junsha explained, "I'm just worried about your safety."

Having said that, Shen Qi already understood the intention.

The current strength of Team Rocket is not as good as before, or it can be said that the remnants represented by Athena are not worthy of the title of "Team Rocket" at all.

Porygon's uniqueness and special abilities are important to them.

The Elf High School has security personnel arranged by the Security Department disguised as plainclothes logistics. Once Shen Qi takes Porygon out of the island, it is impossible for a large group of people to follow him.

That's why Zhenyi had to accompany Shen Qi to participate in the competition.

In addition, Shen Qi can only use Porygon in the car, or let it come out to move around in a safe room. He cannot summon Porygon in public.

After all, Shen Qi's strength is limited.
