Pokémon Beyond the Blue

Chapter 109 Preliminary Competition

What was displayed on the screen was obviously the name of the down-and-out nobleman named Kalest.

This was nothing. At most, it was Ikki's bad luck in meeting this guy. But what surprised him was not Kalest, but another person who was in the same group as the two of them.

"Hey! Looks like you're not very lucky!"

Kalest was stunned for a few seconds when he saw the list, but then he felt funny.

What can a child like this do who is so frightened that even participating in the opening ceremony makes his legs weak?At best, I just got lucky enough to collect eight badges to participate in the competition. When I meet him, Ikki's good luck may come to an end.

He strode through the crowd and came not far from Ikki and the others. He looked like he was saying hello, but in fact he was just mocking Ikki with bad intentions.

"Yeah, but there's nothing we can do about it, I'll try my best!"

Ikki didn't seem to understand the meaning of Kalest's words, but calmly cheered himself up.

"Hey, I didn't expect you to be such a boring person. I must be equally bored when I fight you..."

Kalest lost interest for a moment, shook his head and walked out with his silky chestnut hair on his waist.

It's not that Ikki doesn't understand what he said, but if there is a conflict here, although it will be very troublesome, more importantly, some information may be revealed unintentionally - this is an excellent opportunity for his opponent. .

Riolu and Kirulian walked out from behind Ikki and Nazi, nodded happily and said: "Not bad, you can actually calm down when provoked by that kind of guy, I'm impressed by you!" "Do it! Well done, Ikki!"

Ikki seemed a little embarrassed by the praise, scratched the back of his head and said with a smile: "No, I just think about the overall situation..."

There was nothing wrong with Ikki, but Nazi couldn't hold back her anger. She had never seen such an arrogant person before, so she was ready to use her telekinesis to teach this kid a lesson.

But who would have thought that just as Nazi stretched out her telekinesis towards Kalest, she was intercepted by another telekinesis, but that energy was not as powerful as that of Nazi, who was a genius.

"I'm sorry, Kalest has such a stubborn personality, please don't take it to heart..."

The girl from the opening ceremony once again appeared in front of Ikki, looking constantly at Ikki and Kalest, and sincerely bowed and apologized to Nazi and Ikki.

Nazi raised her eyebrows and looked at the screen: "Your name is... Kallen, right?"

Kallen straightened up and nodded: "Yes, Miss Nazi, I am a superpower like you."

"Super power? That's awesome!"

At this time, that guy Xiaozhi and Pikachu discovered Ikki and the others, and immediately ran up.

"Pikapi! [Riolu!]"

Riolu, who was thrown to the ground, looked at Pikachu rubbing all over him without any disgust, but Kirulian covered his mouth and snickered at this scene.

"Since your friend is here, I'll take my leave first!"

After Kallen bowed to the two of them once again, she quickly ran out of the door.

"Who is that girl? It feels very unusual..."

Xiaozhi looked at the direction Kallen ran out, thoughtfully, but still couldn't think of anything.

"Xiao Zhi, I'm sorry. I don't have time to chat right now. I still have a lot of preparation work to do. Sorry, I'm sorry!"

Ikki picked up Riolu and touched Pikachu's head twice. However, Pikachu didn't seem to appreciate it. If Ikki hadn't held Riolu, he might have just greeted him with an [Electric Shock].

But there really isn't much time to waste now. I'm afraid only Xiaozhi in the entire venue doesn't understand the stakes...

After saying goodbye to Nazi and Kirulian, Ikki took Riolu to the computer.Placing Riolu on the table, Ikki took out his notepad and searched for something.

 "Caluster...ah, I have it!"

Each player's room is equipped with a dedicated computer that can view game information. The opponent's strength, attributes they are good at, and the elves registered for the battle can all be checked.Ikki is doing this work now.

"It's hard to handle...the steel elf..."

Looking at the steel properties on the screen, Ikki began to feel that things seemed to be getting into trouble.

'The steel attributes are fire, fighting and ground. If Riolu is included in the first two, we should be able to deal with him, but is it really so smooth?Riolu and Kirulian are going to be used as trump cards, so let's do this! '

Ikki lay down in front of Riolu, stared at Riolu who stared at him with big eyes, and said, "Then how about I let Charmander, Charmander, and Lulili play tomorrow?"

Riolu climbed up from the table and walked to the screen to look at it carefully, but neither nodded nor shook his head.

[He knows that what he is good at is the steel attribute, so it is impossible that he does not have the means to deal with his weaknesses, and while you are reading his information, others are also looking at yours, so it is better to think about it carefully. 】

But Riolu thought again and continued.

[Anyway, it doesn’t matter if you lose once. Just do it your way. I’ll cooperate with you fully. 】

This is Ikki's game, and he has no interest in intervening. At most, he can just go up and help when he is needed.But what Riolu cared about more than the competition was the elf egg in Ikki's bag.

Although its mother is no longer here, since Riolu promised to take good care of it, he will not go back on it easily.

"Well...it's really troublesome. Gym competitions are easier..."

Ignoring Ikki's troubles, Riolu jumped to the ground, took the egg out of Ikki's bag and brought it to the bed. He held the egg in his paws and looked at the lines on it.

[I haven’t seen that elf yet... What does its child look like... Just don’t be as naughty as Pikachu was when he was a child...]

Anyway, the night passed quickly...

The next day, Yukino and Hai also came to Quartz Plateau. They ran to Ikki's player lounge early in the morning to look for him, but they were kicked out by security before they could say a few words. Before leaving, they did not forget to give way to Ikki. Come on Hui.

The competition venue for the preliminary round was surrounded by iron fences and divided into more than 100 separate small arenas.Spectators were unable to come and see the preliminary matches, and even reporters were blocked from the door.

Ikki stood at the other end of the field, took a deep breath, and slowly looked at the cynical Kalest standing opposite him.

"I didn't expect you to actually come, so don't cry if you lose!"

"Don't worry, I won't cry!"

Ikki still followed the same tactics as yesterday and ignored Kalest's aggressive tactics.

"Hey, it's still so boring, then let me show you my lovely babies!"

Ikki also followed Kalest's actions and threw the little fire horse's Poke Ball into the field at the same time, but he was thinking about other things.

"It would be nice if Riolu was here..."

Without the little guy by his side, Ikki still felt like something was missing.

But it's not Ikki's fault, the problem was last night...

After Ikki finally decided which elf to fight, he saw cracks starting to appear in the egg held by Riolu. At first, he thought Riolu had accidentally broken the egg, until white particles began to shoot out from the middle of the cracks. After the light, he realized that the egg was about to hatch.

But the personality of this new elf is a bit too playful, and he insists on pestering Riolu.

There was no other way. In order not to disrupt Ikki's game, Riolu had no choice but to stay in the room with this elf...

Ikki shook his head, put aside distracting thoughts, signaled to the referee, and then the whistle sounded...

"Game start!"
