Elf: Release? Not possible.

After looking at Charizard's reaction, Xiaozhi nodded slightly, then took out the Poké Ball and released Windy.

After seeing the scene just now and combining it with his own experience in memory, Xiaozhi came up with a very good idea.

If Charizard could learn Flash Charge, it would be able to complete the new trick that it had in mind.

"Arcane, please, share your experience in Flash Charge with Charizard!"

Xiaozhi spoke to Windy, and after hearing Xiaozhi's words, Windy seemed to be able to sense Xiaozhi's inner thoughts.

Argyle is actually a creature with very keen intuition. In fact, the same is true for normal dogs. Smart dogs can actually feel what their owners are thinking.

So it makes sense that dogs are humans' most loyal companions. Arcanine heard that Ash wanted him to teach Charizard how to practice Flash Charge.

Instead of feeling anything was wrong, Arcanine readily agreed and was not worried that he would lose to Charizard after teaching it the Flash Charge.

On the contrary, it was a bit looking forward to it. This was the ultimate purpose of Xiaozhi asking it to teach Charizard the Flash Charge. It could sense that Xiaozhi wanted Charizard to learn the Flash Charge for other plans.

At Ash's signal, Windy began to teach Charizard the Flare Charge, and Charizard began to learn it.

Xiaozhi was observing from the side, and the teaching progress was not slow, as Charizard itself was a Fire-type Pokémon.

He has even learned the Explosive Burning Technique. Its level is definitely enough to control any fire-related trick.

In fact, Flash Charge is to release flames from the body, allowing the flames to generate power. When using Explosive Burning, Charizard will actually have flames gushing out from the surface of its body.

583 Windy doesn't need to teach Charizard how to release fire. It just needs to let Charizard control the fire and teach Charizard how to make the fire generate power and propulsion.

"Well! According to this situation, a few days should be enough!"

In the past, it would take at least ten days or half a month to learn a special skill, but looking at the current progress, Xiaozhi is basically sure that a few days will be enough.

It's hard to say whether it can be completed before the end of the tournament, but Xiaozhi just wants to complete it as soon as possible. Even if it cannot be completed in the end, Xiaozhi believes that Charizard's current strength is enough to cope with the competition.

If you want to practice while competing, it will be a bit difficult. Other Pokémon may not be able to do it, but Charizard should be no problem.

It was not until dinner time that Ash returned to the Pokémon Center with a slightly tired Charizard and Windy.

After meeting Xiaoxia and the others, they also asked Xiaozhi where he had been. Xiaozhi did not say much and just said a few perfunctory words. He planned to keep it a secret until it was completed.

After seeing Xiaozhi come back, he handed Charizard and Windy Dog to Miss Joy. They were a little confused and couldn't guess where Xiaozhi had been.

But seeing that Xiaozhi didn't say anything, he didn't ask any more questions. As long as it wasn't like the last time he played against Hiro, it would be fine.

Chapter 740 Semi-final Opponent (Subscription Request)

"Dear contestants, please go to the Pokémon Center draw area to draw lots for your groups!"

At night, Xiaozhi had dinner with everyone else. While they were chatting after dinner, the radio suddenly sounded.

Hearing this voice, Xiaoxia and the others subconsciously became nervous.

Xiaozhi didn't say much. He got up and left the restaurant with Pikachu and the others, and Xiaoxia and the others followed closely behind.

We soon arrived at the draw area. Compared to when the qualifying round just started, it now seemed a bit deserted, and there were only four fish tanks left in the grouping area.

Because now there are only the last four people left, so it can be said that as soon as they arrived here, the four people are facing each other, unlike before, when there were too many people and they couldn’t see their opponents.

But although there were fewer and fewer people, the tension was getting stronger and stronger, except for Xiaozhi and Xiaolan, who knew each other and greeted each other when they met.

The other two saw Xiaozhi and the other two and said nothing, but there was spark in their eyes.

Although there are fewer and fewer contestants, many people still came to the grouping area after hearing the broadcast, but they were all watching from the outside, mainly wanting to see who would compete with whom next.

According to the old rules, Xiaozhi took the fishing rod given by Miss Joy without much psychological pressure and threw the hook into the water without hesitation.

Soon the Magikarp took the bait, and looking at the number on it, it showed Group A-1, which represented the first match of the semi-finals.

"It's Group A1, upload the information immediately!" Miss Joy spoke quickly when she saw this scene. In other areas, Xiao Lan and others also took the bait one after another.

Soon the information of the four people began to be uploaded. This time the display on the big screen was all different, perhaps because the number of people began to decrease.

The avatars of the people appeared at the same time, and then began to jump randomly. It took a few seconds, but to the others who came to watch the grouping, it seemed like a long time had passed.

Bang! ! !

Soon, the avatars on the big screen were frozen and grouped. Xiaoxia and the others saw that Xiaozhi and Xiaolan's avatars were separated, and they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

My luck was so good that I didn't expect to encounter it even when there were only four people left.

Xiaozhi also looked at his opponent, a boy who was not very old, about the same age as Xiaogang, with conspicuous red hair.

"Xiaozhi, your next opponent is the Flame player from Ruoye Town (the Flame Dragon of the Sky plays a guest role, three characters merged into one, and the name is also changed)."

"Okay, I understand, thank you!" Xiaozhi responded after hearing the voice.

Wakaba Town is a town in the Johto region that is said to be the place where the wind of change begins to blow. Its status in the Johto region is the same as that of Pallet Town in the Kanto region.

If Pallet Town is the origin of many rookie trainers in the Kanto region, then Wakaba Town is the origin of rookie trainers in the Johto region.

Both are towns that have produced many top trainers, but before the appearance of Satoshi and others, Pallet Town gradually declined.

However, many outstanding trainers have emerged in Wakaba Town. Although they are both places of origin, Pallet Town has always been known as the place of champions.

However, as both are starting places, many trainers from Wakaba Town are not convinced by this. Although the Kanto region and the Johto region are geographically connected, the two regions complement each other and develop rapidly.

But the competition is actually very fierce, especially the competition between trainers.

The Johto region has clearly surpassed the Kanto region in terms of trainer rankings in recent years because of the emergence of the talented trainer Du, now the champion of the Elite Four.

This situation will probably continue until someone is able to defeat Du.

It’s just that for some young trainers, Du is an existence that they look up to, but the younger generation of trainers are actually competing with each other.

After the groups were determined, Xiaozhi was about to leave, and at this moment, a figure came over and stopped when he passed by Xiaozhi. It was Xiaozhi's opponent in the next game.

"I've heard a lot about you, Ash from Pallet Town. I've watched your previous matches, but you definitely can't beat me."

Yan spoke with confidence, and at the same time, there was a strong smell of gunpowder in his eyes.

"Then let's give it a try!" Xiaozhi paused slightly, then responded calmly.

"Hmph! Just wait! I will prove in this match that the trainers from our Wakaba Town are definitely stronger than the trainers from Pallet Town."

"From now on, when people mention the land of champions, they'll mean our Wakaba Town, not Pallet Town!" Seeing that Xiaozhi didn't seem to be buying it, Yan didn't want to embarrass himself.

After saying those harsh words, he left immediately. At this time, Xiaoxia and others came to Xiaozhi's side and couldn't help but speak.

"This guy is really arrogant!"

"Yeah! But he has the capital to be so arrogant since he can come this far. In the past, Pallet Town had always suppressed Wakaba Town, but now it has finally started to improve. No wonder he reacted like this."

Xiaogang also spoke at this time. To reach the semi-finals, it is not only luck that matters, but strength as well.

As for the situation between Pallet Town and Wakaba Town, in fact, anyone who is an insider knows that this is actually a kind of healthy competition, and in fact, people from both regions have tacitly accepted it.

However, after being suppressed for so many years, the trainers in Ruoye Town are certainly not convinced. Even the Pokémon Professor in their town (Li Qianhao), Dr. Kongmu, was once a student of Dr. Oak.

This feeling of being suppressed at all times is indeed very bad.

"Don't worry, the game will tell everything."

Since the other party is bringing up the situation of the two towns, I should also take Fang seriously.

Over the years, Xiaozhi has developed a deep sense of belonging to Pallet Town.

Whether it’s because of the care I’ve received from everyone in Pallet Town over the years, or because I’ve truly fallen in love with this small town with simple folk customs.

Or it is because of my feelings for Pallet Town as a time traveler. I believe that anyone who likes the Pokémon series will have stronger feelings for Pallet Town than other areas.

Since this is the place where I belong both physically and mentally, there is no reason to lose. Xiaozhi's eyes gradually became firm.

Chapter 741 No One Is Qualified Now (Subscription Request)

After leaving the grouping area, Xiaozhi said hello to Xiaoxia and the others, and then they parted ways.

Before retiring for the night, Xiaozhi went to the registration office and registered his Pokémon for tomorrow's competition.

Because his match is the first one tomorrow, there is no time delay in the semi-finals, and the two matches tomorrow will be held in the morning and afternoon respectively.

After the winner is decided, there are still two games on the next day, one is the final to decide the champion, and the other is the game to decide the third place.

The two losers tomorrow will have to decide the third place on the day of the final, and the entire Quartz Conference will end there.

After registering the Pokémon for tomorrow's competition, Xiaozhi went back to his room to rest.

Xiaoxia and the others haven't rested yet. They also specifically checked the information of Xiaozhi's opponent in the next game.

It was discovered that this opponent was not just a Pokémon from Johto and Kanto. He seemed to have been to many other regions and participated in competitions in many other regions, and his results were always among the best.

There were also some Pokémon that they had never seen before, and they specifically reminded Xiaozhi about them after he came back.

However, those Pokémon that Xiaoxia and others had never seen were not unfamiliar to Xiaozhi, so he didn't care too much and went to bed early to prepare for tomorrow's game.

The next day

Bang bang bang bang! ! !

The next morning, many people were awakened by the sound of fireworks in the sky.

Although it is only the semi-finals, it is already warming up for the finals. Moreover, the fact that the competition has reached this point also means that these trainers are all top-level and deserve such treatment from the league.

After breakfast, Xiaozhi went to the competition venue. At this time, Xiaoxia and others were already waiting in the audience seats.

In order to cheer for Xiaozhi, Xiao Huang and Xiao Misty even prepared cheerleading decorations for Pikachu, Togepi and Jigglypuff in the audience.

At this time, the seats for more than 100,000 people in the competition venue were already full.

"Dear audience, thank you for your long wait. The much anticipated semi-finals are finally about to begin!"

Wow! ! !

There were cheers from the audience and the atmosphere was very warm. This game would directly determine who would enter the finals.

In fact, for the audience, the semi-finals are more exciting.

"The referee is in place, let's invite the two contestants to come on stage!"

After watching the referee take his position, the commentator quickly signaled the players from both teams to come on stage, and Xiaozhi and Yan appeared one after another.

This time, Xiaozhi was on the green fighting stage, and Yan was on the red fighting stage. When both sides walked out, the scene was filled with deafening applause and cheers.

"Both players have appeared on the stage!"

"On one side is contestant Xiaozhi from Pallet Town. I believe everyone is very familiar with him."

"On the other side is Yan from Wakaba Town. He is also one of the candidates for the championship of this tournament. He has made it this far with his outstanding performance."

"It's worth mentioning that one of the two parties is from Pallet Town in the Kanto region, and the other is from Wakaba Town in the Johto region!"

"Both towns are world-renowned training bases for trainers in their respective regions, and the two players are from these two places."

"This match not only represents the two trainers, who will advance to the finals, but also represents the towns where the two players are from, which one is the world's number one trainer training base."

The commentator was obviously also stirring up trouble, as the hometowns of both teams were indeed very topical.

"Did you hear that? It's not just you and I. People all over the world think the same way, so I won't lose!"

Standing on the fighting stage, Yan's eyes flashed with a gleam, and it was obvious that he also cared about the outcome of this game.

"It seems so, but I still have to tell you that no matter whether we win or lose, neither you nor I can represent Pallet Town and Wakaba Town!"

"If I can really represent Pallet Town and Wakaba Town one day, I will at least become one of the Four Heavenly Kings."

Xiaozhi's expression remained calm the whole time, although he was willing to bring glory to Pallet Town and would not allow anyone to discredit it.

But now, no matter which of them, they are indeed not qualified to say that they are fighting for Pallet Town or Wakaba Town.

To put it bluntly, it is because their current level is not up to par. If they say that they can represent a town, it is just arrogant talk.

"Well...."

After listening to Xiaozhi's words, Yan was stunned for a moment. He had indeed been thinking about defeating Xiaozhi on behalf of Ruoye Town.

But after listening to Xiaozhi's words, I didn't know how to respond.

Indeed, no one asked him to do this, it was just his wishful thinking, and no one said that he could represent the entire Ruoye Town.

He made the decision on his own. If he won, it would be fine. But if he lost, Ruoye Town would only be humiliated because of him.

But no matter what, the two of them don't represent anything now. There are many trainers who were called geniuses at the beginning but became mediocre later.
