Elf: Release? Not possible.

Dr. Blatano was also generous in praising him after hearing this. He himself was also an excellent trainer before becoming a researcher.

Although he has retreated to the second line to carry out research work, his keenness in combat is still there.

I've heard Professor Oak praise Satoshi before, but I've never seen Satoshi's combat prowess with my own eyes. This time I finally saw it for myself.

"Thank you Doctor!"

"Don't be so polite. And because I watched your game, I also saw that evolution!" Dr. Blatano looked at Xiaozhi and said with a smile.

"So, Doctor, is this evolution a MEGA evolution?" Xiaozhi asked unconsciously as he listened.

“Yes and no. I am almost certain that this is an evolution that is even more incredible than MEGA evolution. If your kind of power is called the power of bond, then perhaps it can be called bond evolution!”

"Although your Charizard completed the evolution to X-form in MEGA last time, since it did not use the MEGA Stone and Evolution Key Stone, it is also defined as a bond evolution!"

After some time, and after seeing Pikachu's evolution today, Dr. Blatano came up with a new theory.

"Is that so?!" After hearing the voice, Xiaozhi pinched his chin and began to think.

"However, Pikachu's form is something I've never seen before. This makes me think that maybe Charizard's form can be even better."

"Do other Pokémon have this problem?" Dr. Blatano also looked thoughtful, and then asked again.

"Currently, only Pikachu and Charizard are in this situation." Xiaozhi shook his head slightly after hearing this.

"Hmm! I can't be sure yet. Is it because your bond with Pikachu and Charizard is stronger, or your Pikachu and Charizard are different in themselves, or is it your own problem? I can't be sure yet."

This power is called the power of bonds, so bonds are naturally needed, and in fact, MEGA evolution also requires it.

But he cannot be like Ash, who does not need MEGA Stone and Evolution Key Stone as a medium. Dr. Bratano cannot analyze the specific reason yet.

"I understand. If there are any special situations again, I will contact you!"

Xiaozhi also knew that this kind of thing could not be researched overnight, so he was not in a hurry.

"Okay! I'll leave it to you. I'll try my best to analyze the information that will be helpful to you. Then... do your best in the Quartz Conference. I'll continue to watch your games."

Dr. Bratano responded with a smile after hearing this.

"Thank you, Doctor!" Xiaozhi responded after hearing the voice.

Then he hung up the phone, but stood there, lost in thought.

..... ..... ...

"Does the bond evolve?"

Unable to understand what kind of power this was, he thought for a long time, then turned around and left, said hello to Xiaoxia and the others, and then returned to his room.

After a day of games, the Rockets came out to cause trouble and used the power of bonds. I felt very tired after a day of games.

He returned to the room early to rest. When Xiaoxia and the others came back, Xiaozhi had already fallen into a deep sleep, so they did not disturb him.

After learning about Team Rocket's situation, they knew that Ash must have been exhausted from the day.

The next day

The next morning, Xiaozhi was the last one to get up. He was really tired yesterday and there was no competition today, so Xiaozhi got up a little late.

Xiaoxia and the others went to have breakfast first. When Xiaozhi woke up, they were gone. Xiaozhi glanced at the time and it was not yet 9 o'clock.

After getting up, washing and packing, he went out with Pikachu and Jigglypuff.

When I left the room and prepared to go to the restaurant, I saw Ahong's figure as soon as I walked into the lobby. He was standing at the front desk with a backpack on one shoulder and borrowed the Poké Ball from Miss Joy.

When he turned around, he saw Xiaozhi and Hiro were also slightly stunned, but after a moment they smiled.

"Good morning!" He greeted Xiaozhi as usual.

"Good morning!" Xiaozhi also responded.

"Are you leaving?" Xiaozhi asked, looking at the luggage behind Ahong.

"Yes! My competition is over. I have realized my shortcomings this time. I plan to go home first and then start a new journey!"

After hearing this, Ahong also responded. Many trainers would continue to stay and watch the game after it was over. Of course, many trainers had already left.

Some of them were unwilling to stay here because they lost the game, while others felt their own shortcomings after losing the game and did not intend to waste time and were ready to start training again. Ahong was obviously the latter.

"Then... I wish you all the best!"

I have made a lot of friends in this world. Hiro is not only a friend, but also a good rival.

However, although everyone’s goal is the same, the paths they take are different, and there will always be a time for separation.

"Thank you! Xiaozhi, you too, please join me in cheering for the next games! Even though I'm not here, I'll still cheer you on."

Upon hearing this, Hiro responded with a smile. This competition made him realize the gap between himself and Xiaozhi. He was in a hurry to leave just to continue to hone himself.

"Yes! Definitely!" Xiaozhi nodded in response.

"I hope we will have the chance to meet again next time, and then I won't lose again." Hearing Xiaozhi's words, Ahong clenched his fists and spoke confidently.

"me too!"

Xiaozhi chuckled. He had actually heard this a lot along the way, but no matter how many times he heard it, he would never get tired of it.

Hearing Xiaozhi's response, Ahong stretched out his hand and clenched his fist. Xiaozhi smiled at this and the two of them lightly bumped fists.

"Let's go! Take care!!"

"Take care of yourself!"

After saying that, Hiro waved his hand, turned around, and left in style. Xiaozhi stood there and watched Hiro leave.

"Let's go too!" After seeing that Hiro had disappeared, Xiaozhi said to Pikachu and Jigglypuff.

Later, they found Xiaoxia and the others at the restaurant. While chatting, they learned that Hong had already left. Everyone was a little surprised and a little regretful that they didn't have time to say hello to him.

But everyone knows that this is what traveling is like, and we can only look forward to the chance to meet again next time.

The following day, Xiaozhi went to watch a day of competition with everyone else.

Although most of the next opponents are strangers, they are just supporting characters as described in the anime.

But in reality, watching their games is obviously not just for show. Those who can make it here are all real talents.

So far, among the familiar people, only Xiaozhi and Xiaolan have successfully advanced.

Also from Pallet Town, Xiaomao, who was originally highly expected, was eliminated in the preliminaries. What no one expected was that such a seemingly weak girl actually performed as well as Xiaozhi.

But what everyone is worried about now is that Xiaozhi and Xiaolan will meet. In this case, one of them will have to be eliminated early.

Misty and the others were more worried than Satoshi and Blue, the two people involved. However, Satoshi and Blue were not too worried.

This is how I feel when participating in a competition. Sometimes I even look forward to meeting him sooner.

After watching a day's game, the group returned to the Pokémon Center and had dinner. Soon the center issued a notice.

All the players who advanced to the top 16 went to the group area to draw lots again. After receiving the broadcast, Xiaozhi and his team rushed there as soon as possible.

As usual, they used fishing to determine the groups. They came to the water tank, took the fishing rod handed over by Miss Joy, and threw it into the water tank without hesitation.

Xiaoxia and Xiaohuang in the back were praying in their hearts that they would not be assigned to the same group with Xiaolan.

Soon the buoy sank, and Xiaozhi immediately pulled the rod when he saw it. Soon, a lively Magikarp jumped out of the water.

"Let me take a look!" Miss Joy came forward to check the number on Magikarp.

"Group A-1, Xiaozhi's next match is in Group A-1, enter the information now to start the match!"

After Miss Joy saw the numbers clearly, she immediately started to operate the computer next to her. The big screen above showed Xiaozhi's head portrait, and then she started to group 0...

Soon, many avatars began to flash, and soon a blue-haired man who looked to be about fourteen or fifteen years old appeared on the screen.

When they saw this person, Xiaozhi and the others were slightly stunned, and Xiaomao, who came with them, also frowned.

"It's him?!"

This person was none other than the player who defeated Xiao Mao and advanced in the preliminaries. Xiao Mao was still unwilling to accept that game.

"Xiaozhi, your opponent is Xiaotian from Honglian Town. Your match will be the first match tomorrow morning. Remember not to be late!"

After the groups were formed, Miss Joy spoke up to remind everyone that as the number of contestants decreased, the competition would become less intense.

Although it is the first game tomorrow, there is more than enough time to prepare. I don’t have to get up early in the morning to prepare like during the qualifiers.

"Okay, thank you!" Xiaozhi responded. The opponent was the player who defeated Xiaomao, and was definitely not an ordinary person.

The round of 16 matches were split into two days, leaving only Group A and Group B. There were eight matches in total.

"Xiaozhi, don't be careless. This guy is very strong." Xiaomao looked at Xiaozhi and spoke seriously.

"Of course I know, but I will still win!" Xiaozhi responded with a smile after hearing the voice.

Xiao Mao was slightly stunned when he saw this. After so many years of getting along, Xiao 1.5 Mao knew that Xiao Zhi was not arrogant, but because he lost to this person, so he wanted to win back his share.

"Humph! Anyway, I've already reminded you that if you lose, it's none of my business."

Although her personality isn't as weird as Yin's, she has the same tsundere attributes. Although she is touched in her heart, she still can't say it out loud.

I'm sorry to keep you here any longer. After saying this, he turned around and left.

"Still the same as always, not frank at all!" Brock and the others knew Satoshi and Shamo very well, and could tell that Shamo was just tsundere.

"If I don't do this, I'm not Xiaomao!" Xiaozhi responded with a smile, without saying anything more, he put down the fishing rod and left with a few people.

In any case, the opponent has been determined, and he will be a tough opponent. The match is the first game tomorrow and there is not much time, so Xiaozhi has been taking the time to deploy the lineup.

Xiaoxia and the others all know that Xiaozhi's match tomorrow is not only for his own victory, but also for Lian Xiaomao's sake.

No one disturbed him, and Xiaozhi arranged the lineup by himself until late at night.

Finally, it was Hanako who reminded Xiaozhi that he realized the time. Although Gin helped him to speak up for being late this morning.

However, Hanako was still worried that Xiaozhi would be late again, so she came over to remind Xiaozhi to rest and not to be late tomorrow.

However, while lying in bed, Xiaozhi was still planning the lineup for tomorrow's game and did not rest immediately. He fell asleep unknowingly until late at night.

The next day

Xiaozhi went to the registration office early in the morning to register the Pokémon information. After thinking about it all night at 04 o'clock last night, he finally determined today's lineup.

"Okay, Xiaozhi, all the Pokémon participating in today's competition have been logged in!" After completing the operation, Miss Joy responded politely.

"Thank you, Miss Joy!" Xiaozhi responded after hearing the voice.

"You are welcome!"

After finishing his business, Xiaozhi went to the restaurant. Xiaoxia and others were there. Xiaozhi walked up and had breakfast with everyone, then went back to the room to tidy up.

He went to the teleportation area and asked Professor Oak's assistant to help him teleport all the Pokémon he would use today.

Misty and the others had already set off for the competition venue to reserve their seats, and Ash temporarily left Pikachu and Jigglypuff in their care.

After replacing all the Pokémon, Xiaozhi went to the competition venue.

After entering the venue, we were quickly led to the lounge by the staff. There were only a few minutes left before the start of the game.

"Dear audience friends, the much-anticipated promotion match of 16 to 8 will officially begin today!"

Wow! ! !

At this time, the commentator has already started warming up the field, and with deafening cheers, the referee has also taken his position.

"I think Satoshi should be fine?" Hanako was looking at the field with her camera. The game was about to start, and she was a little worried that Satoshi would be like in the first game.

"It shouldn't be a problem, don't worry too much!"

Seeing Hanako's worried look, Professor Oak responded with a smile, saying that Satoshi had not left the Pokémon Center early this morning, so there must be no problem.

"Now, let's invite two players to the stage!" Looking at the time, amid the cheers, the commentator's voice sounded again.

The cheers and applause at the scene became louder, and Xiaoxia and others immediately looked towards the entrance.
