Pokémon development strategy

"As expected of Gym Leader Lijia, your mentality and attitude in raising Pokémon are worth learning from."

The cups clinked gently, and Rika's eyes turned to the Pokémon dining area.

"I heard Ah Xing talk about you. It's really amazing that you have grown from the 6th island to this point."

"Compared to you guys, I can't even be called awesome."

According to the conventional world line, Shen Qi is 17 years old, and Lijia and the others are just in their twenties.

"No need." Lijia's eyes narrowed with a smile, "You don't need to compete with us, there's no need to live as a reference for others, just enjoy the competition, and enjoy your life with Pokémon."

Chapter 723 Taiyi

"set off!"

In the dark gray science museum, the little sheep drove out and headed for the track race.

The track has a single lap length of 7.3 kilometers, with 40 laps, and a total race length of 292 kilometers.

It is another fresh and arduous challenge.

There is only one T1 driver in the same group, and among the remaining 3 drivers, two are T13.

They are Zhenghui and Shuijing respectively.

Suikyo is the only character in the game who has the "mysterious young man" trainer type, and his family background is tinged with mythology and folklore research.

In the game and anime, Suikyou studied the legend of the Burnt Tower in the Johto region and has been trying to capture Suicune. He was on the verge of success several times, but was always able to escape with Suicune's powerful strength.

When it comes to T1 professional trainers, Shen Qi can guess most of them. They are nothing more than reasonable and powerful characters like Green, Kona, Daigo, and Mikoli.

I really didn’t expect that the T1 drivers would be Zhenghui, Shuijing and others. You know, Qinglu only certifies T2 drivers.

This means that in the field of racing, Qinglu has a high probability of not beating Zhenghui.

It is true that every profession has its own specialties.

Driving the Lamborghini into the racetrack, Shen Qi first arrived at the maintenance point outside the racetrack. There was a branch road here for driving into the racetrack. If maintenance was needed during the race, this branch road would also be used to enter.

Check the status of the Lamborghini... Actually there is nothing much to check. The rotary engine is fine, and there is a high probability that there will be no problems with other parts. Apart from replacing new tires and filling it with energy, there is no other need to adjust.

"Hum hum!"

Arrogant laughter came from outside the door. A girl with colorfully dyed hair was wearing a paint-splashed combat uniform and a helmet with a skull pattern painted on it.

"Feiyue, what are you doing with this plane?"

"See how you can beat me this time!"

During the summer season, half of the license plate in front of Little Sheep fell off, leaving it only one iron piece ahead of Rainbow Flying Sword, so it finished 4th. Feiyue was so angry that she sent more than ten messages asking Shen Qi to PK with her offline.

It's not a car race, it's really a ring battle.

At that time, Shen Qi had to go to the Sinnoh region to study the Greenwash form Pokémon, so he had no time to play with her.

This time, Feiyue is really going to avenge her previous shame!

"Your victory is unfair. Every time I enter the station, I take several minutes longer than you."

The Rainbow Flying Sword is supported by the research team of Yuhong University. When changing a tire, an electric screwdriver is used directly on the tire, and four or five nuts that fix the tire can be unscrewed in a few seconds.

If you have 4 sets of such screwdrivers, you can easily remove all the tires within ten seconds, and then install the new tires back. Adding the charging time, you may be able to complete all the things you need to do in the pit stop within one minute.

It is normal for Shen Qi to spend three to five minutes each time he enters the station.

"I don't care!" Feiyue made a face and went outside to quarrel with Ayaka's fans.

However, Ayaka hasn't participated in a T-level event for such a long time, and she only ran regular season games for rehabilitation. She was too low-key and her popularity was much lower, so Feiyue's quarrels were a bit unsatisfactory.

"Contestant Shen Qi."

The organizer called through the headset, "A driver who was eliminated in the first round wants to see you. If you need help, he can be your assistant."

"Who is it?"

The referee obviously knew the other party's background and there was a smile in his words.

"There are only two apprentice drivers in this T2 expansion race, one is you and the other is him."

"And an apprentice driver?"

Shen Qi didn't expect that there was another trainee driver who passed the T2 registration application. It was really not easy.

However, if there is such an apprentice driver, he should be able to be seen in the banquet hall.

Unless the other party was eliminated in one round and has no intention of attending the banquet.

“I really haven’t understood it.”

After all, it was a competition far beyond his own capabilities, so Shen Qi basically only focused on the drivers in his own group. It was only when he attended the banquet that he discovered that Wen Jiu had also come to the expansion competition.

In the first round, Wen Jiu was drawn to the downhill race. His toy car flew across most of the hillside in the shape of a whirlwind tornado. In the end, he was penalized for more than 1 seconds and of course failed to advance.

However, the kids and Pokémon at the scene went crazy when they saw the toy cars, and all the toys in the park were sold out.

The referee's words came through the headset, "I told him to go to your inspection room now, contestant Taiyi."

"Taiyi?!"

After the call ended, Shen Qi stood there in a daze.

What's going on? Are you coming to the Digimon set to make a cameo?

Don't take out a Battle Greymon, it's a Dragon + Fighting type, right?

When the little boy with brown cauliflower hair cautiously ran into the maintenance room, Shen Qi realized that it was not Taichi from the Digimon side.

He is the youngest of the four Ibrahimovic brothers.

Very early on, there was a plot in the first generation of the original animation. There were four brothers in a small wealthy family, and they all raised Eevee.

The three older brothers evolved Eevee into water, fire and electric respectively. The early versions of Eevee only had these three branch evolutionary forms.

Then, the three older brothers asked their youngest brother to choose which direction to evolve in, and they all hoped that their youngest brother could choose his own attribute type.

In the end, the younger brother didn't make any choice and let Ibrahimovic remain as he was and kept him cute.

"Mr. Shen Qi..."

The little boy with cauliflower haircut greeted cautiously with excitement and a little timidity.

"Don't be so polite, just call me by my name."

"I…I'm Taichi."

"how old are you?"

"16 is old."

He is only one year younger than Shen Qi. This age is considered very early to get a racing license. If he were any younger, he would not be able to take the racing driver qualification exam.

"I like Shen Qi very much!"

Taiyi suddenly confessed loudly, which scared Shen Qi.

【Love piggy bank】, energy storage 82%

Looking at the changes in the numerical values ​​of the game props, you can tell that Taiyi is sincere.

The situation is a bit like Koji in Elf High School, who also expressed his admiration for Shen Qi on the court in the summer.

Although he was happy, Shen Qi still felt extremely depressed.

Now that he has made some progress in racing and has decent funds on hand, how come he hasn't attracted some little fans? He's full of little fans!

"You are already very capable. There is no need to blindly worship me. Go and find your own path."

"Yeah! Thanks for the encouragement."

Taiyi pointed at the little sheep and said, "If possible, I will be Shen Qi's logistics staff in this game!"

Being suddenly drawn into a circuit race is extremely unprepared for freestyle riders, and they will basically be in a situation where they are short of manpower in terms of logistics.

Shen Qi did gather 4 Pokémon to correspond to 4 tires, but he was a little short of manpower for the charging tools and some temporary debugging parts.

"May I?"

"Okay." Taiyi clenched his fists, "I won't force myself. Those who understand will understand, and those who don't understand won't touch it."

Eevee also jumped onto the trainer's head and called "Beeeeeeee".

Compared to Nancy's Sun Eevee, the normal Eevee before evolution sounds much softer and cuter.

"Then it's hard work for you."

"I'm so happy to be able to fight alongside Shen Qi!"

Chapter 724 No more regrets

“They are so strong…”

Taking the branch road on the track back to the maintenance room, Shen Qi confirmed the results of the positioning race.

Little Lamb…7th place in the placement race.

There are still Acorus and two other T2 drivers who have not yet started, so Shen Qi's ranking will only drop.

If you are positioned in the top five and try to defend your position, you may still have a chance, but if you are positioned in the second half, there is basically no hope of overtaking other drivers and breaking into the top five.

Unless other drivers make major mistakes, and multiple drivers make mistakes.

Having participated in the first round of competition, Shen Qi knew very well that the players in the T2 expansion competition were much stronger than those in the T3 competition.

In the previous rally of more than 400 kilometers, most of the drivers had little experience, and only two eventually retired due to accidents.

Don't even expect any major problems to occur in a track race. If there are any bumps or bruises, you can go to the P room to repair them, but you have to be completely damaged before you can't continue the race.

"Ok?"

Outside the maintenance room, a little boy with a brown cauliflower head waved a flag.

That's Taichi...

Oh yeah, we made an appointment to practice the pit stop.

During the race, drivers enter the pit from the branch road to change tires and recharge. This process is very important and every second counts.

In order to prevent the drivers from stopping at the wrong maintenance room when entering the pit because their full attention is focused on the race, staff will come out in advance and wave flags to remind the drivers where to stop.

Everyone knew that Shen Qishi would most likely be eliminated, but unexpectedly Taiyi was not affected at all and waved the little flag vigorously.

The same goes for Pokémon.

The clay giant had already moved the four tires to the side of the lift, and Mrs. Hua Jie was also standing in the designated position ready to help change the tires.

Long-Eared Rabbit and Miss Skirt were each watching a tire. They were more proficient in racing, so they wore extra tools to prevent some functional repairs.

Taichi placed the charging tube in the depression of the oyster shell in advance, and his symbolic bird used its superpowers to control the tube to ensure that it was unobstructed inside.

The Lamborghini was parked on the lift, the machine was raised, and the tires were removed and then installed.

In fact, there is no need to change the tires after the positioning race. No one replaced the tires. They just removed the tires and installed them back to conduct a real-life simulation.

Any trainer and Pokémon with a little experience can see that Shen Qi has almost no hope of advancing. Of course, their own Pokémon will not say anything and can only help the trainer conduct relevant simulated combat training.

Taiyi still did not show any sign of discouragement and looked completely devoted.

"Taiyi." Shen Qi said truthfully, "I will try my best in this game, but the chances of advancing are slim."

"I know."

Taiyi nodded hard, "I will fight with Shen Qi to the end!"

There was a half-hour break between the placement match and the official match, and Taichi talked about his travels in Alola.

While traveling and studying, Taiyi was interested in taking a sai license exam. His family was fairly well-off, and he received guidance from the captain of the island, who was similar to the vice-groom master of a gym, so he did quite well in training.

After returning to the Kanto region, he was badly beaten in two consecutive regular season games and lost confidence for a long time.

At that time, Shen Qi and Xiaomian Yang had already gained some fame. Taiyi noticed an apprentice driver who was about the same age as himself. Although he was born in a small place, he did not have many education and training resources and he was driving a D-class car, but he made it to the finals in the tiered competition.

In the spring season, Shen Qi withdrew from the competition halfway, followed by a lot of public opinion. Taiyi felt that if it were him, he would have been doomed, and he never dared to participate in a racing competition again.

However, three or four months later, Shen Qi returned to the public eye with some shocking scientific research results, and brought a lot of limelight to his alma mater.
