early morning.
It was still time, and there wasn't much traffic in the Pokémon Center.
Xiaozhi was alone, sitting in front of the public telephone hall.
On the screen was a green-haired woman with a rather heroic appearance.
Zizzi...!
The elf ball transmission device next to it flashed with electricity, and an elf ball appeared on the sunken platform.
"Miss Ji Ke, please help me take care of the fire-breathing dragon during this time."
Ash grabbed the Poke Ball and said gratefully.
"Haha, these are all small things~!"
Ji Ke just smiled heartily.
On the other side of the screen, Ji Ke's female Charizard named "Lisa" wearing a pink bow on her head is also in the picture.
It's just that the latter is touching his belly at the moment, looking shy.
With sharp eyes, Xiaozhi noticed that Lisa's belly was much larger than that of an ordinary fire-breathing dragon.
Are you full?
"Haha~ Your Charizard performed well!"
Ji Ke couldn't help but praise.
It's a pun, and it praises the outstanding performance of constantly challenging the predecessors Charizard and growing and progressing in the Charizard Valley.
He also praised the latter for his active cooperation in optimizing breeding.
Lisa is confident that she can breed a more powerful Charizard!
"Xiao Zhi, I heard that today is your semi-final day, so work hard~ strive to win the championship~!"
As Ji Ke finished saying this, he cut off the phone screen.
Xiaozhi also stared and hung up the phone.
Today is the day of the Silver Conference semi-finals, the semi-finals.
He was the first to appear, and the game time was just in the next 2 hours.
As for the opponent...
"Xiao Zhi, you got up very early too~"
At this time, a voice came from the direction of the Pokémon Hall.
Ye Yue, who was tall and tall, with the figure of a track and field athlete, short brown hair and energetic appearance, slowly walked over.
He came here specially to say hello to his opponent, who was about to fight.
"It seems that we have prepared a powerful Pokémon~?"
Ye Yue noticed the elf ball in Xiaozhi's hand.
Although the latter was young, Ye Yue did not dare to be careless at all.
In other words, the two young men in Zhenxin Town at the moment are not fuel-efficient lamps.
Faintly, this even gave Ye Yue the same feeling as when he faced off against the Heavenly King Furong at the Fangyuan Regional Alliance Conference.
A strong sense of oppression!
"Hehe, I will use my full strength to deal with Mr. Ye Yue~"
Xiaozhi did not answer directly, but looked at the latter with the same burning eyes.
Although the biggest target is Xiao Mao in the finals, Ye Yue, an experienced player, may end up capsizing if he is not careful.
"Then let's do our best for each other and leave no regrets!"
"I think so too!"
So the two shook hands and looked at each other passionately...
...
...
2 hours later.
It is still the main venue of the Silver Conference.
"Chirp chirp~!" "Chirp chirp~!"
As the semi-finals progressed, the spectator seats were already packed.
At this stage, without rookies, every game will be extremely exciting and no one will miss it.
In the spectator seats, Xiaozhi's family and friends were lined up, waiting expectantly for the start of the game.
"I didn't know Xiaozhi couldn't win~~!"
Hanako said nervously.
"Don't worry, that guy Xiaozhi, it's not a big problem."
As a friend of women, Xiaogang comforted her immediately.
"Yes, Xiaozhi is very powerful~"
"Indeed~"
Xiaoxia and Xiaolan also echoed beside them.
The final is the real challenge, now the semi-finals are not a big problem.
However, a few people were more interested in Ye Yue, a trainer from the Fangyuan area. After all, they had never been to other areas.
"There is a big difference between the Pokémon in the Fangyuan region and the local Pokémon in our Kanto Johto region..."
Next to him, Dr. Omu was giving some popular science advice to a few people.
When he was young, Dr. Ohki also traveled around the world.
The Johto region and the Kanto region are a connected continent, with Baiyin Mountain as the dividing point in the middle.
But in fact, these two places were not separated in the past and were collectively referred to as the Kanto region.
And across the vast ocean is the Fangyuan region, the Sinnoh region, the Hezhu region...
The Pokémon's appearance, living habits, etc. are already very different from the Pokémon in their Kanto region.
Soon, with the referee in place.
Under the gaze of countless pairs of fiery eyes, Ye Yue and Xiao Zhi arrived at their positions at the two ends of the main arena at the same time.
"Pica...!"
Today's Pikachu also looks full of energy.
It has been warmed up and can go up and kill at any time.
rumble...!
With the shaking of the stadium, the standard stadium ground was transformed into a grass field.
"In the semifinals of the Silver Conference, player Ye Yue from the Fangyuan region will face player Xiaozhi from Zhenxin Town! Now please send out your first Pokémon!"
As the referee's voice fell, the two of them stared at each other at the same time and threw their elf balls.
boom!
The person in front of Ye Yue is naturally his vanguard - the Dou Li Mushroom!
The kangaroo-like figure shook two fast-moving fists.
The Dou Li Mushroom has both grass and fighting attributes, and has extremely high speed and fighting skills.
He is good at constantly looking for flaws in the early stage of the battle, and after discovering the flaws, he quickly attacks the enemy.
As for what's in front of Xiaozhi...
"Ouch~!!"
An upright giant rat-type Pokémon with blazing flames burning on its back appeared on the field.
Fire beast!
As soon as they appeared on the stage, Fire Beast and Dou Li Mushroom aimed their sharp gazes at each other at the same time.
The fiery fighting spirit reached its peak.
The two had briefly fought against each other on Silver Mountain before.
It was just that the outcome was still undecided, which made both of them determined to defeat the latter completely!
"Oh~ Fire Beast~"
In the spectator seats somewhere, Ah Jin's eyes suddenly lit up, but he still added something.
"But it's still not as powerful as my Firemon...!"
"Yes, yes~ the top eight contestants~ you are the strongest~"
Chrissy, who was sitting next to her, just teased helplessly,
...
The battle begins!
"Dou Li Mushroom, use sonic punch!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Dou Li Mushroom's figure suddenly turned into a stream of light, and all that could be seen was the flash of white light at his fist.
Whoosh!
With an extremely fast fist, he punched the fire beast in the face.
This is a proactive move.
"Didi. The characteristics of the Dou Li Mushroom are: Technician. When using low-power moves, the damage can be increased."
The illustrated book on Xiaozhi's waist gave a timely sound reminder.
However, the sonic punch boosted by the technician only knocked half of the fire beast's head away.
"Ouch..."
The fire beast's head did not move, but its eyes moved in front of it, staring straight ahead.
The flames on my back surged instantly!
"Fireblast, now, use flame jet!!"
Xiaozhi ordered quickly.
The next moment, the fire beast opened its mouth, and the gap between its grinning teeth was filled with flames.
Boom! !
The flames shot out towards the bamboo hat mushroom in front of him!
