Pokémon development strategy

Why…

It's not necessary.

After passing the initial Z-turn, the gap between the first and second echelons widened again, which was a pure difference in hard power.

Shen Qi used [Adaptive Turbo] to fight with the third place. He might be able to overtake him, or he might delay each other.

There were no points or rewards in the first round of preliminaries, only the top 1 advanced. Shen Qi never thought of pulling out all his cards.

If the situation remained the same by the second lap, Shen Qi would not even plan to use the electromagnetic floating tactic in the Z-turn, and would just stay in the top 2 to finish the race.

The time when you really have to fight hard is when you are fighting for points in the last round.

The so-called winter race strategy is not limited to one game or one lap of racing, but to look at the entire race and maximize the effect of the cards in your hand.

"Dear audience, now the first group has all passed the starting line!"

“There has been no change in the rankings since before the start of the competition.”

Very normal.

Duowu is still in second place. He may not be as strong as the driver in first place, or he may not have the strength to overtake. He can advance with first or fifth place. It would be counterproductive to rashly grab unnecessary titles if a collision or other problems occur.

If we keep going at the current pace, Duowu will definitely advance. Why take the risk of no gain?

The audience knows very well that the first echelon before the preliminaries is usually not worth watching, and the exciting ones are the second echelon. They are at a stage where they are lacking in strength, car performance, and Pokémon assistants, but they have a slight chance of advancing, so they will do their best.

At this time, a T3 driver accelerated greatly, and there was a bend ahead!

Such a speed requires special grip techniques, otherwise you will rush out.

"Oh! We see the No. 9 player switch the WD mode to rear-wheel drive and drift through the corner!"

Drifting is not a good choice for cornering.

The principle of drifting is to deliberately make the rear wheels slip, twisting the rear wheels like a pendulum to swing through the corners.

When the tires slip, a lot of speed will be lost, mainly due to inertia, supplemented by the thrust of the rear wheel rotation.

Generally speaking, it is far inferior to the conventional "outside-inside-outside" cutting and routing, except for special cases.

Shen Qi was listening to the commentator's description on the public channel. In fact, he didn't know which corner the other party was drifting on. He just guessed that the man had a method of suddenly increasing grip and then bursting out.

"Good! Beautiful explosion!"

"Oops, we ran off the track. It was a crosswind!"

Before car No. 9 could stabilize its body after turning the corner, it was shaken by the crosswind from the Lampoldsia Sea and rushed off the track.

Outside the bend, there were half-man-high wormwood grasses. The grass leaves and stems used the momentum to push into the front of the car, filling up the air intake.

Fortunately, it was just weeds and there was no collision or other accidents, but the driver had to get off and clean it up. If he continued to start the car, the debris would be sucked into the intake pipe and sent to the engine, which would be terrible.

"Alas, this map memory ability is lacking."

Shen Qi knew that the second echelon must have passed the starting line and entered the second lap.

After running a lap, you should remember the map roughly. You are not required to plan the route selection in detail like a T2 driver after one lap, but at least you should remember the general levels and difficulties.

Crosswinds are unpredictable, sometimes strong and sometimes weak. If you know that crosswinds will occur in a certain place, you can either take countermeasures or drive safely through the strong wind area.

The driver behind me dared to participate in the winter race and got 9th place in the positioning race. His strength is reasonable. He might have been eager to grab the fifth place and acted impulsively, so my memory is vague.

Common name: "upper head"

Guji!

Through the camera of the mobile phone, Duoduo noticed that they were about to arrive at the Z-bend and asked if they were ready to use the floating tactic?

"Need not…"

Judging from the communication on the public channel in the headset, it is unlikely that anyone from the second echelon will catch up.

Even if he catches up, it will take two people to surpass the little sheep before Shen Qi will be eliminated.

There is no need to fight for the third place at this time.

The car in front probably thought the same. Shen Qi didn't see him use any tactics from beginning to end. He was just relying on basic driving skills and power gain.

The goal of T2 drivers is to get a good result in the finals, and it is enough to qualify before the finals.

Whether it is a driver competition or a showdown between masters in competitive events, the gap between T2 and T3 is not a unique skill or a killer move.

The main thing is the basics: basic driving skills, map memory and analysis, competition strategy and mentality.

Assuming the performance gap between vehicles is not outrageous, T2 drivers can widen the gap with T3 drivers just by relying on basic driving skills.

"Ok?"

In the rearview mirror, a shadow with a blue electroplated texture flickered.

By expanding his field of vision through the [Global Eye], Shen Qi discovered that it was... a culture chamber!

It really was an incubator, escaping from the fight with the second echelon.

Xiao Mian Yang and the top three T2 drivers are leading the race, with only the last one left to qualify.

It was not surprising that the incubator got the final promotion spot. What surprised Shen Qi was that the incubator could actually get close to the first echelon.

I just analyzed it. The decisive difference between T2 and T3 is the basic skills. The fact that the cultivation chamber can catch up shows that her core technical level is so high...

Even if she didn't run seriously in the front, Meng Ai's performance in the regular season in Jinhuang City was not at this technical level.

Made progress?

Shen Qi thought of the results of the previous positioning competition. The incubator was only 2 seconds slower than the lamb.

Has Meng Ai really made progress in these twenty days?

And the progress is so great.

Shen Qi did not change his operating strategy. The distance between the car behind the incubator was at least 20 meters, and the finish line was only 100 meters away, so it didn't matter if Meng Ai passed by.

First place across the finish line!

Duowu drove the Gray Star and crossed the finish line in second place.

The third one too.

Shen Qi kept an eye on the rearview mirror and saw that the culture chamber that was about to overtake paused.

"The fourth one to cross the finish line is... the little sheep!"

"The last qualifying spot is won by the training chamber!"

Chapter 319 Innocent Girl

Shen Qi stopped the scooter in front of the maintenance room and simply breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he had advanced to the second round. He was not too excited.

There are no points in this round. If you want to experience T2 next year, you must at least advance to the next round.

Look at the players who advanced, the first three are T3 drivers, followed by Shen Qi and Meng Ai.

The strength of the players who advance from other groups also fluctuates in this range.

拿最标准的20名车手晋级5人模式来评估，理论上应该是蓝普尔其晋级的这5人阵容强度复制4份，再从中决出前5名来。

It can also be described as the difficulty of the next round has quadrupled.

This description may be too mechanical and one-sided, but it is not without reference value. At least it can be used as an indirect reference to estimate the intensity of subsequent competitions.

"Hmm... Yeah."

A soft whisper came from the side. Shen Qi turned around, lowered his eyes, and found a little girl in a gray and white racing suit standing by the side.

It's dream love.

The little girl, who was obviously not good at socializing, raised the corners of her mouth stiffly, and forced a smile on her wooden expression, which was equivalent to a normal person pinching the corners of his mouth with two fingers and pulling his skin upwards when he was not smiling.

When friends make such jokes or expressions, they usually do it just to be funny or to complain about something.

Meng Ai’s image is obviously not the lively and humorous type. She is a cute girl, but her smile is as stiff as the Bulbasaur next to her. It’s so pitiful.

"Contestant Meng Ai, what's wrong?"

"Thanks…"

"what?"

A lot of question marks emerged in Shen Qi's mind. He couldn't remember when he had helped Meng Ai, or when his Pokémon had helped others.

Shen Qi turned and looked at the two Pokémon.

auspicious…

Jigglypuff gently shook its sausage-shaped little hands, and the building block duck also shook its body, indicating that it had never had any contact with Meng Ai.

"What do you want to thank me for?"

"Well... at the end of the second lap of the race..."

Meng Ai probably communicates less with others in normal times. Her language organization and expression skills are a bit poor, and her voice is quite dry.

Just like when the jackrabbit was still a curly-eared rabbit, it took a lot of effort to explain a relatively complicated thing.

"Second lap?"

Recalling the situation at that time, the incubator overtook the car and Shen Qi had no intention of stopping it.

At that time, you would advance whether you blocked or not, and there was no difference between fourth and fifth place, so of course there was no need to create trouble.

Now it seems that Shen Qi's competitive strategy of "avoiding meaningless confrontation" was regarded by Meng Ai as an act of expressing friendliness.

She has a very simple mind.

Ayaka ran over from the Yumachi Pier stadium to bring lemon soda, and Meng Ai's first reaction was to think that she was being friendly.

Even if you don't know about the "Duel Wine" challenge ritual, you shouldn't think of it as simply as that.

It's an important winter season and Ayaka is shouldering the lofty goal of winning three consecutive championships. Why would she inexplicably send lemonade to someone she doesn't know well to show her friendship?

This is outrageous.

In comparison, Shen Qi seemed much more reliable, and at the time he thought Ayaka was there to express her love.

What a smart judgment... Although it was a mistake in the end, it still made sense. Have confidence in your own charm.

Back to the present, Shen Qi had to smile helplessly.

I didn’t show any favor to Meng Ai during the game, so I have to be honest.

A white lie doesn't hurt anyone, but it's not good for Meng Ai to understand the world.

"Actually, it's like this. Since you can't beat my little sheep, I will advance to the next round normally. There is no difference in points, prizes, etc..."

Shen Qi explained his competitive strategy.

It is very simple to block the culture chamber, and the probability of a collision is very low, less than one in ten thousand.

Even if the chance is only one in ten thousand, why take the risk?

"Besides, I'm pretty poor."

Using self-deprecating words to ease the atmosphere, Shen Qi pointed at the little sheep and said, "Less meaningless confrontations, less wear on the tires, and they can be saved for later races."

Bulbasaur: Grass!

Shen Qi's cheeks twitched twice. He knew in his heart that Bulbasaur didn't mean that, but he couldn't help but unconsciously think that Bulbasaur had extremely poor quality.

Even though Shen Qi had used a more humorous expression, Meng Ai still felt a little disappointed.

"Don't be sad, I've experienced this kind of misunderstanding too."

Hearing the same experience, Meng Ai raised her face, her expression still wooden, but a light flickered in her eyes.

"I used to be the deputy, with Pokémon as the driver. I participated in the autumn race in Vermilion City this year. During the qualifying round, there was a Dream Song Cactus who could have surpassed us, but chose not to overtake..."

The situation was the opposite of this time. The little sheep chose to release the incubator over, and Mengge's Fengma chose not to surpass.

The topic aroused Meng Ai's interest, and Shen Qi asked questions like a kindergarten teacher...

"Why do you think that is?"

"Mengge Cactus...want to be friends with you?"

Shen Qi just felt cold sweat coming out. How could the little girl be so naive?
