Pokémon development strategy

The most Shen Qi could think of was Feiyue changing careers to participate in the gorgeous competition.

"Isn't it?" Lapu said excitedly, "My future is still promising!"

"Uh, what do the rest of the Skeleton team think?"

“They said my singing was terrible.”

"Then it's over."

"What--"

Chapter 769 Pilgrimage Celebration

Time passed to 21:, and the assessment time for all trial participants ended, but there were still trainers who could not return.

"Everyone."

In the camp outside the lush cave, Captain Ilima held a megaphone and said, "Thank you all for your hard work today. Congratulations to the trialists who have advanced. Then..."

Shen Qi sighed and said that he could finally go back and rest, but he didn't expect Ilima to continue talking.

"Please come with us to find the other trial participants who have gone missing."

"Eh!!"

Not only Shen Qi, there were many other voices of surprise and doubt.

Everyone is about the same age, mainly between 15 and 20 years old.

After a whole day of hiking in the mountains today and having to take care of many demanding tasks at the same time, I am exhausted.

You know, tomorrow is the captain's challenge project.

Some trial participants were very calm. It was obvious that they had experienced the pilgrimage of the islands and knew about this process.

This is the daily routine of the island guard team, deputy captain, captain and rangers.

After completing the day's tasks and just finishing my meal, I received another wave of urgent tasks.

In other words, they were lucky enough to finish their meals, but the rangers and guard team members had just picked up their bowls and chopsticks when they received a mission notification, so they could only grab two bags of portable food and set off.

Returning to the mountains to look for the lost trial-taker, Shen Qi realized that compared to the daily routine of a ranger, the current assessment has been simplified a lot.

The trial participants who take part in the pilgrimage to the islands have a sensor device that can send out distress signals. Compared to searching aimlessly in the mountains, this has a very clear purpose.

It was already 23pm when Shen Qi returned to his guest room in Lili Town.

There is nothing much to say. After washing up, I took out my [sleeping bag] and fell asleep quickly.

The next day, Shen Qi woke up and checked the promotion list of the Island Tour. There were still 103 trial-takers left on Melemele Island.

There were originally 139 trial participants who signed up, but after two field operations yesterday, about a quarter of them were eliminated.

From today noon to tomorrow, the qualified trialists will fight against the captain and vice-captain in the order of the draw.

"MeleMele Island... Is that enough for the captain?"

Yesterday Shen Qi met the captain Ilima, the deputy captain You Hao and two others.

With only three people, there was no way they could handle the successive tests from over a hundred trial-takers.

Checking the registration details, the examiners for the island tour are not only the current captain and deputy captain, but also those who are over 20 years old and become rangers or staff of the island owner's hall can serve as examiners.

By this calculation, the assessment can be completed in two days.

The test schedule Shen Qi drew was this afternoon, and the examiner was...Ilima.

"Are you so unlucky?"

I directly drew the only current captain of Melemele Island.

Taiyi received guidance from Ilima when he was studying in the Alola region, but he didn't expect that he would be the one Shen Qi picked.

"We have to fight today."

While having breakfast, Shen Qi and the Pokémon talked about today's itinerary.

Shen Qi was exhausted after yesterday's operation in the mountains. For Pokémon, it was just a walk in the mountains.

Especially the last part, after having dinner with the Pokémon, they went into the mountains for a symbolic walk to look for the lost trial participants. At that time, the whole mountain was bustling with a large number of trainers and Pokémon wandering around, which was more like a celebration.

Shen Qi felt that the difficulty of the island tour was far beyond that in the game, but his own Pokémon didn't feel anything. It was only when he heard that there would be a battle today that he decided to get down to business.

Take off from the town of Lili and arrive at the lush cave again.

The island tour of Melemele Island almost revolves around this area.

"Is this... a celebration scene?"

The flat hill outside the lush caves is lined with stalls and colorful flags, like a festival district.

There was a large area outside the bustling square, with metal racks leaning against large piles of wood arranged in a cone shape.

Shen Qi had seen this kind of scene before.

This is the original appearance of the bonfire lit in the central area during the bonfire party.

There is a celebration going on outside the lush cave.

It's only noon now, and only the snack street is open, so the bonfire can't be lit until dark.

"Hey!"

Shen Qi saw the boy from the Skull Team who was mistakenly arrested yesterday, "Why is it so lively?"

"Oh, you're the one from Kanto..."

The skeleton team member gave the fried noodles in his hand to the Gnat on his shoulder.

It’s true that all kinds of villain forces love Zubat.

"The Tour of Islands is a grand event for the Alola region, so after the first set of trials are over, there will be celebrations at the trial sites on each island."

Today and tomorrow, the trial-takers who advance from Melemele Island will travel counterclockwise to Poni Island, then to Ula'ula Island and Akala Island.

After completing four sets of island tests and randomly selecting the battle tests with the island king and island queen, you can be considered to have completed the island tour.

This has been the Alola region's ancient tradition of selecting warriors, and the celebration continues to this day.

At the end of each island trial, there is a large bonfire party to offer encouragement and blessings to the trial-takers who advance, and to encourage the failed trial-takers and Pokémon to keep trying.

"I see…"

With a twist of his feet, Shen Qi caught Duoduo who was trying to run away.

"No! You can't drink too much now!"

Guji————

Duoduo struggled for a few times, then drooped his head limply.

"Really? We're on stage very early in the afternoon. What if you're too drunk?"

Gurgle…

The trial participants were busy all day yesterday, so today's captain-level combat test will start at noon and end tomorrow.

Shen Qi drew the lot for the afternoon, which was actually very close.

After saying goodbye to the Skeleton Team members, Shen Qi still bought Duoduo a bottle of watermelon juice.

"Big-billed Gull."

Huh?

"Have you finished your soda?"

I just bought a drink for the Pokémon, and the Toucan must have poured it into its throat sac and savored it slowly, so the bottle was empty in 5 seconds.

Take the empty bottle of the Toucan and pour out half of the other bottle of watermelon juice.

"See, Duoduo, you and your sister share half a bottle."

The Porygon siblings share the same body, but they will never share a bottle of drink. The brother must finish one bottle before the sister drinks the next.

Unless it's like this now, Shen Qi manually divided it into two bottles for them.

After feeding the Pokémon and walking around twice, it’s almost time to call Shen Qi’s trial number.

Queue up to enter and check your belongings.

After completing the preliminary process, Shen Qi met a well-mannered boy with long pink hair.

It’s a pity that it’s a boy, otherwise Ilima would really be a beautiful girl trainer full of exotic charm.

"Trialist, Shen Qi?"

Ilima's voice was steady and gentle. He smiled and stretched out his slender arms. His skin was the brown color that was typical of the indigenous people of the Alola region.

"It's me." Shen Qi shook hands with Ilima, "I heard Taiyi talk about Captain Ilima."

"Oh? Taichi." Ilima's smile softened, "A very thoughtful trainer."

Taichi has an Eevee that chooses not to evolve, and he is determined to make this Eevee stronger through bonds and beliefs even if it doesn't evolve.

Coincidentally, Ilima is a trainer who excels at the Normal type, and he also has an Eevee that chooses not to evolve, so he has a close relationship with Taichi.

"But," Ilima raised his index finger, "I won't let you go later."

Chapter 770 Unlimited Battle

Both sides wear protective gear, and the trainer and all Pokémon registered for this battle have barrier armor.

On Shen Qi's side, except for Madam Hua Jie and Hua Wuniao who was drawing the draft in Lili Town, all other members participated.

The staff reminded that outdoor battles are not like professional arenas, and the barriers are not as abundant.

In the arena, there are flying drone protection equipment in the sky and barrier reinforcement equipment on the ground, so the barriers on trainers and Pokémon are equivalent to "ten lives". If you lose 10% of the barrier points, you will be eliminated, and the remaining 90% of the barrier points are purely for safety.

There are fewer aerial barrier equipment in the wild, especially in dense forests, and ground conditions are also limited, so the barrier points are 4 times the attack limit that trainers and Pokémon can withstand, which means a loss of 25% of the barrier points will be considered an elimination or exit.

"learn."

On the other side, Ilima was also ready. Both sides would enter a forest temporarily simulated with props from different directions.

Simulate field battles to avoid damaging vegetation and ecology.

"Eh?" Shen Qi stopped halfway through his walk, "Don't you need BP?"

Ilima, who was about to enter from another entrance, turned around with a smile and said, "I see you don't understand anything."

"Didn't we agree on a battle?"

Before the tour of the islands, Shen Qi was busy with work at the Melemele Garden, and he took it for granted that the process was to challenge the dominant Pokémon, challenge the captain, and challenge the island owner.

There was no problem with the general direction, but the rules were completely different, so Shen Qi didn't know as much about the Pilgrimage of the Islands as the other trial participants on the first day.

At the end of the first day, the organizer announced that the second day would be a battle with the captain. Shen Qi heard, "Oh, a battle," and then returned to the gameplay.

As the guardian of the island, you do need combat prowess, so of course you have to take on battles and be assessed. There is nothing wrong with this self-evident idea.

So Shen Qi didn't read the rules again and spent a lot of time resting.

Ilima shook his head slightly, "I really can't do anything with you. Let me put it briefly. If you don't have enough time, you will enter the trial field and suffer."

The battle with the captain took place in an artificial wilderness area, simulating a conflict with fierce poachers.

The Skeleton Team that the trial participants encountered yesterday simulated ordinary poachers.

When seeing rangers or guards, poachers will usually flee or wander off to fight back, trying to escape.

Occasionally, there are always fierce poachers or truly evil organizations that strike deadly blows.

"Today, you should treat me as a gangster who was caught in a plot to kill the island guards in the deep mountains and forests to silence them."

When you encounter a gangster, the fight is without limits and rules.

There is no BP, no energy clock, but as long as you can control it, you can even throw out twenty Poké Balls in one breath.

"Two-hour trial, start the countdown!"

Changing the subject, Ilima suddenly turned around and rushed into the woods.

Shen Qi was stunned and hurried in.
