People who lack ability are arrogant, and when they are proven wrong, some people will kick them while they're down.
After leaving the arena, he walked into the athletes' tunnel amidst cheers from the audience.
"Boss, your world ranking is out," Lin Wei said, standing in the player walkway waiting for Nanfeng.
"So fast? I just won!" Nanfeng exclaimed in surprise.
"Updated in real time, right at the moment the referee announces the decision."
"Really? It seems my battle with the Japanese player was observed by the World Pokémon Championships organization... So, what's your ranking?"
"Ranked 632nd," Lin Wei replied, handing the tablet computer to Nan Feng.
"It's pretty close to the front," Nanfeng nodded in agreement, though he hadn't looked at it closely.
Even if an ordinary gym leader defeats their opponent in a ranked battle, their ranking would only be around 800 or 900. But I started out ranked 632.
This suggests that the organizing committee of the World Pokémon Championship has a high opinion of its own strength.
Nanfeng speculates that the bonuses are likely due to Mega Gardevoir, Mega Garchomp, and Mega Steelix.
As long as one's physical strength can hold up, three Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution are indeed a force to be reckoned with.
However, don't assume that being ranked 632nd in the World Pokémon Championship is a high ranking.
This is just the ranking that has been recorded.
Many top players didn't make it to the World Pokémon Championship. For example, his senior, Zhuo Yan, and Li Datian, who was also a top investigator.
When the time for the eight-master tournament really comes to a close, every year a number of dark horses emerge from the nooks and crannies.
That was when the competition was at its most intense.
I am currently ranked 632nd, which puts me in the 600-699 range. So I can challenge those ranked 500-599.
But there's no rush to improve the rankings.
Before the sprint to the Masters Tournament, the higher your current ranking, the more likely you are to become a target for others to climb the rankings.
The real push for rankings will have to wait until a few months before the Masters 8 tournament begins.
"How are the preparations for tomorrow's Pokémon sale going?" Nanfeng suddenly asked.
"Everything is ready." Lin Wei swiped her tablet, and a table appeared, listing the participants of the Pokémon Sales Convention.
Even though they raised the entry requirements this time, the spots were snapped up instantly.
Some wealthy individuals even went so far as to ask their connections to Bai Wenru's teacher for favors...
However, Nanfeng only knew the news; since the teacher hadn't mentioned it to her, she pretended not to know. Perhaps the teacher didn't want to bother Nanfeng with such a matter.
“Okay, then you’ll host tomorrow, and I’ll be watching from the audience,” Nanfeng said. The sale of the elves was something that would eventually have to be handed over to Lin Wei.
Since I'm still at the Dongning Dojo, I might as well let her take over as soon as possible.
Being on-site allows me to maintain control at any time.
"Okay, boss!" Lin Wei replied calmly, she had long known that this day would come.
"By the way, after tomorrow's ten Pokémon, add two more Totem Pokémon. You can use that as a selling point to get these trainers excited before they come." Nanfeng took out two Poké Balls and handed them to Lin Wei. The remaining ten Pokémon had already been released into the ranch on the day the deal was finalized.
The dominant force in these two Poké Balls.
One of them is the Mongoose Detective, which is given when you collect 20 Overlord stickers.
The other one is Marowak (the Alolan version) that you get when you collect 40 Overlord stickers.
After collecting the 40th Totem Sticker on Akara Island, Southwind went to Professor Oak. He gave Southwind three options again.
One is Marowak (Alolan form), and the other is Araquoise and Dugtrio (Alolan form).
The strength of these three Pokémon has only increased slightly since having 20 Totem Stickers, by a mere 0.8. I wasn't particularly interested in training them, so Nanfeng chose the one with the best appearance, Marowak (in its Alolan form).
They were a delightful little surprise at this Pokémon sales event, along with Detective Mongoose.
Although it's not as rare as Pokémon like Beast, it's still a top-tier Pokémon.
I believe some trainers will like it.
"Alright, I'm going back to rest. Tomorrow's time is in your hands." Nanfeng waved and left without looking back.
"Aren't you going to attend a press conference?" Lin Wei pressed.
"I'm not interested. You figure out how to deal with those reporters yourself." Nanfeng hated this kind of socializing the most.
Lin Wei watched Nanfeng leave and said, "Okay, boss, please rest assured and leave it to me."
291. Methods for defeating Totem Pokémon
Defeat the overlord "Spider-Man" at the Streaming Hill to obtain the Water Z-Move and learn the Water-type Z-Move "Mega Swirl".
Defeat the dominant "Salamander" in Volcano Park to obtain a Fire Z-Move and learn the Fire-type Z-Move "Super Inferno".
Defeat the dominant "Lanmantis" in the shady jungle to obtain the Grass Z-Move and learn the Grass-type Z-Move "Radiant Flower".
Finally, at the Life Relics on Akala Island, he fought the island queen "Kaz," obtained Rock Z and Steel Z, and learned the Rock-type Z move "Crazy Rock Slide" and the Steel-type Z move "Super Spiral Combo."
Although there are no Gyms or Badges to obtain in the Alola region, completing the captains' trials and defeating the Island King to obtain a Z Crystal is still a great reward.
But, to be honest, the names of these moves are pretty awkward.
It has a similar effect to the "Spiral Flash Super Wheel Dance Roar 3" from another anime!
Nanfeng doesn't believe there's no intention to learn from this.
After conquering Akara Island, Nanfeng now possesses eight Z-Crystals!
We're not far from having all eighteen Z-Crystals with all attributes.
Nanfeng's handheld gaming journey these past few days has been quite fulfilling, giving him a sense of novelty reminiscent of when he first started playing handheld games.
Besides finding Totem Stickers to exchange for Totem Pokémon from Professor Oak, he found another way to obtain Totem Pokémon.
That means constantly gathering in groups to fight and kill monsters in the wild.
When you defeat a thousand Pokémon in a certain region, the system will display a message: "You have defeated too many Pokémon, attracting the attention of the local overlord."
Then the overlord will show up and fight you!
Nanfeng first discovered this method while leveling up her Growlithe in the shady jungle.
As a result, a dominant Pokémon named "Flower Therapy Ring" appeared.
This is a fairy that resembles a wreath, while the overlord fairy is shaped like a hula hoop!
After defeating and capturing it, I discovered it was just a Pokémon with a Special Attack 1V.
But that's alright, the important thing is that Nanfeng now knows how the Overlord Elf appears.
So, Nanfeng gave it another try.
During this monster-hunting session, Nanfeng deliberately kept track of the number of times he participated in group battles, and finally calculated that he had defeated a total of one thousand monsters.
Still in the shady forest, this time a dominant Pokémon, "Hornpecker," appeared. After defeating it, you can capture it; it is also a speed-based dominant Pokémon.
Then, in order to test whether this rule applied to other areas of Alora, Southwind went to Chirping Hill and Volcano Villa Park, and even tried it on Routes 1, 2, and 3 and Lush Cave on Melemele Island.
Without exception, they all succeeded.
Nanfeng caught another Zangoist Detective, which was previously restricted from being caught in the Lush Cave, but its individual stats weren't as good as the one Professor Oak gave him.
Therefore, Nanfeng concludes that in the wild of the Alola region, once more than a thousand Pokémon are defeated in a row, a Totem Pokémon will appear. The Totem Pokémon is one of the types of Pokémon that may appear in this area.
Furthermore, the attributes of the dominant spirit are at least 1V.
To test this rule, Nanfeng caught about 7 top-tier Pokémon, 6 of which were 1V and 1 was 2V.
It seems the Totem Sticker collection will continue; at least Professor Oak's Totem Pokémon are at least 3IV. Besides, collecting Totem Stickers is much faster than defeating a thousand Pokémon.
After the South Wind swept through the Akara region, he now had 50 Overlord stickers in his pocket.
I estimate that I'll be able to collect 60 cards by the time I reach the first city on the next island, and then exchange them with Professor Oak for my third Totem Pokémon.
Nanfeng won't embarrass himself by showing off these 1V and 2V overlords, mainly because there aren't any worthwhile ones to train like Ralts, so he'll just leave them in storage for now.
If you don't know you're in the Alola region, who will take care of the Pokémon you send back to the storage?
I explored the islands of Akala.
Nanfeng arrived at Kangdai Beach, preparing to travel from there to the next island, "Ula Ula Island," just as he reached the beach.
Three masked men and women dressed in black and white appeared on the beach.
Judging from the insignia on their chests, they should be the "Skull Team," an evil organization from the Alola region. NPCs fled in terror wherever they went.
But many of them weren't afraid, they were disgusted.
It has to be said that Nanfeng feels the level of evil organizations in the latest Pokémon regions is getting lower and lower.
Evil organizations in several previous regions.
Team Rocket in the Kanto and Johto regions, led by their leader Giovanni, aims to conquer the world.
Team Sinnoh's Galactic wants to create a completely new world.
Team Plasma's goal is to separate Pokémon from human hands, arguing that Pokémon in human possession is a misfortune and they should be returned to nature. However, some people join Team Plasma simply to have an excuse to steal Pokémon from others. Depending on the leader, there are also "original Team Plasma."
Team Flare in the Carlos region is even more fanatical. Their leader, Vladari, is disappointed with the constant fighting and robbing among the people. So, in order to allow people to live beautifully in a world without fighting and robbing, he has the idea of exterminating all living things and puts it into action.
Each one of them either wants to rule the world, create a new world, destroy the world, or liberate all the elves in 063.
Team Magma and Team Aqua in the Hoenn region are slightly lower-tier, but they still aim to explore the land or the sea!
Let's look at the next few regions.
Team Skull of Alola is a group of trainers who failed to complete the Island Tour. They are a rogue organization that enjoys stealing other people's Pokémon and causing trouble in the test areas, and they specialize in making trouble for people.
In other words, it's... a gang of street thugs.
The Galar region's cheering squad is the fan club of "Mari," the younger sister of the leader, Nie Zi.
There's also the newest region, "Padiya," home to a group of truant, bad students.
emmm.....
Perhaps this is why the Pokémon anime is being criticized for being increasingly geared towards younger audiences.
While Nanfeng was lost in thought, three members of the Skeleton Army walked up to him.
[Skull Team Dapa: Hey! There's actually someone here who's not afraid of us?]
[Skull Team Jeep: Hehehe, looks like we're going to have some fun today!]
[Skull Team Lapp: Shouldn't we borrow his Pokémon to play with?]
[Skull Team Trio: Kid, hand over your Pokémon!]
Nanfeng raised an eyebrow.
What? You want to borrow my Pokémon to play with?
292. Skull Team
"Arcanine, Flame Wheel!"
The golden Arcanine, engulfed in golden flames, charged forward in a wheel-like motion, sending a mountain of dust flying.
This also brought to an end this 1v3 elimination battle.
The three members of the Skull Team quickly recalled their Pokémon, running away while hurling threats.
[Skull Team Dapa: Don't be so arrogant. You dare mess with the Skull Team? You'll regret it!]
[Skull Team Jeep: Just you wait, our boss will make you pay!]
[Skull Team Lapp: If you're so tough, don't run away!]
Nanfeng watched the three people run further and further away, but didn't chase after them.
None of these three henchmen's Pokémon are above level 40. Even if they have names, they're just newbies and not high-ranking members of Team Skull. There's no point in capturing them.
After putting away Arcanine, Southwind was preparing to continue towards the next island, Ula Ula Island, as planned when he suddenly noticed three Overlord stickers on the ground.
You have obtained 3 of the Skull Team's Lost Overlord Stickers.
