Different from the Quartz Conference in Kanto, the Silver Conference in Johto does not have preliminaries. Instead, a "selection meeting" is held before the official opening of the conference. This selection competition will allow each participating trainer to compete in three one-on-one single-game battles in one day, and based on the results of these three battles, the contestants will be directly eliminated until only forty-eight official players remain. up to the players. Considering that there are more than 200 participants in this conference, the elimination rate is as high as over 75%
"What, these cheating rules?" Xiaoyou held the instruction manual distributed by the conference with a look of contempt on his face, "Can't we wait until after the opening ceremony to do this kind of thing?"
"Uh, and it's actually in such a shabby place"
Xiaoyou, who made this comment with a look of contempt, is now standing at the examination venue. This is an open-air sub-field not far from the main venue of the conference. The square square is divided into more than a dozen standard battle fields with barbed wire. Although each battle field is equipped with professional referees and electronic scoreboards, and Comparing the qualifiers of the four different venue environments of the Quartz Conference is obviously the same difference between Fruit Sixth Generation and Quake (Note 1).
Although it was the selection meeting before the official competition, Xiaoyou was actually not that careless. After all, only one elf can be used in a battle. If you send an ace to participate in the battle and expose your strength until someone targets you in the official match, it is obviously not cost-effective. But if you send a miscellaneous soldier to keep a low profile and end up losing a game inexplicably, it is definitely better. deficit. Although the rules clearly state that this selection meeting is mainly to test the strength of the trainer and is not entirely based on victory or defeat, as long as you perform well and lose one or two rounds, you will still have a chance to qualify
With an elimination rate of over 75%, who dares to pat his chest and say that even if he loses one game, he is still confident of advancing? If you really dare to say that, just stand up. Xiaoyou, who was holding a metal wooden knife and smiling, said that I promise not to hack you to death
The most I can do is try out the newly learned secrets of Busujima style.
"Player Xiaozhi from Zhenxin Townplayer Saburo from Yoshika City, please enter the C venue for a battle¡ª¡ª"
"Oh, it's Xiaozhi's turn soon." Xiaoyou nodded slightly when he heard the announcement coming from the large loudspeaker in the center of the venue. "The opponent's name is such a trick, Xiaozhi should win"
The selection meeting will be held in the open air, and in order to save time, the battles will be held in more than a dozen venues at the same time, so naturally there will be no convenient services such as live TV. Audiences who are interested in watching the battle can go to the venue and lay on the barbed wire on their own and Xiaoyou couldn't run around because he might have to compete at any time, so he lightly stamped his feet and called out from under his feet Geng Gui, who looked a little half-dead because he had eaten "nutritional meals" with Xiaoyou for two months:
"Axon, go to venue C to watch Xiaozhi's game, and then come back and broadcast it for me."
"Kou Jie, Kou Jie" Gengar mumbled and floated away, his figure slowly becoming transparent
A few minutes later, Gengar appeared again and floated back, extending his claws towards Xiaoyou.
Xiaoyou thought for a while, then handed over a drawing book and a marker, as well as a bunch of Yuanzhu City glutinous rice dumplings produced by the system store.
Gengar swallowed the glutinous rice dumplings with an "Ah woo", and seemed a little more energetic. Then he took a pen and paper and started drawing:
"Kou Jie, Kou Jie" First, Gengar drew a crooked Pikachu on the paper and something that looked like a mink scarf - Xiaoyou didn't rely on mental communication to explain that it was really difficult to guess what it was. What¡¡
"Ash is using Pikachu, and his opponent is using um, Otachi?"
"Kou Jie" Then Gengar drew a lot of the same "scarf" to surround Pikachu, and drew several ovals that looked like pits, and then drew a few five-pointed stars around Pikachu, with his head Added a spiral symbol
"Otori used Shadow Clone and Dig, and then Pikachu was beaten and fell into a hard fight?"
"Kou Jie, mouth Jie, mouth Jie" Then Gengar drew an arrow on Pikachu and drew it into the pits on the ground, and then drew big lightning symbols on top of all the pits
"Pikachu also ran into the hole dug by Tailili, and then used 100,000 volts directly in the tunnel?"
"Kou Jie!" Finally, Gengar put a cross on all the "scarfs"
¡°¡And then Otori knelt down?¡±
"It's a joke!" Gengar nodded with satisfaction, with an expression like "Fortunately, my trainer is not an idiot."
"" Xiaoyou looked at Geng Gui with a smile on her face, "I will call my mother later and tell her that you miss her special nutritious meals very much and ask her to make them for ten days." Send a lunch box"
"Kou Jie!" Unprecedented in historyUnder the threat of terror, Gengar decisively knelt down.
¡¡
A few minutes later, the name of a second-generation rich man from Zhenxin Town came on the radio again I mean Xiaomao.
Originally, Xiaoyou planned to send Gengar to "peep" again. However, because Gengar's characteristics are floating and dark instead of Beiye, he has not fully recovered from Ayako's mother's "horrible nutritious meal" to the point that he can't even control the glutinous rice dumplings, so Xiaoyou can only retreat. Next, another ghost-type elf was sent to curse the doll
The result of the competition was not what Xiaoyou expected. Xiaomao, who did not drive a sports car and wear designer leather shoes but instead carried a travel bag and wore hiking boots, was now much stronger than before. He easily killed his opponent's Rumble Rock with his old elf Nidoking. In this sense, it can be regarded as indirect revenge for being eliminated at the Quartz Conference that year
The next ten minutes passed
"Contestant Zhou Fangyou from Zhenxin Town"
"Oh, it's finally my turn." Xiaoyou clapped her hands and stood up, "No matter who the opponent is, we just have to win!"
"Contestant Xia Chengxun from Cerulean City, please enter the F venue to compete."
"¡¡Well?"
One minute later, the F venue was no different from other venues.
""
""
A beautiful and cute young trainer (?) and a spirited and handsome girl trainer () are staring at each other
"Those two players?" The referee in the middle looked around, feeling inexplicably that he was under a lot of pressure. "Can you take out your own elves?"
"How could this happen?" Axun, who was still dressed in a camouflage shorts, looked confused. "I actually met you here?"
"You have to ask the organizer of the conference" Xiaoyou also had a wry smile on his face.
It was expected to meet this fire-type girl from the water-type gym city at the Silver Tournament, but it was absolutely unexpected to meet her in the first battle of the selection competition. You must know that a hot-blooded idiot like this Xiaozhi, and a super-rich hot-blooded idiot is very powerful! If you are a little careless in a battle, you might lose! But in the first battle, you always feel like you're at a disadvantage when you play your trump card and lose your ultimate move, isn't it?
"Well, Xiaoyou!" Apparently, Axun on the opposite side had the same idea as Xiaoyou. "Although I really want to defeat you, I prefer a 6V6 decisive battle in the official arena of the Silver Conference! Rather than just casually here. It¡¯s over in just one round¡¡±
"What a coincidence, Axun, I feel the same way!" Xiao Youshen nodded as if he had the same feeling, but then deliberately looked hesitant. "However, the elimination rate in this selection meeting is very high. No matter who of the two of us loses a game here, he may be eliminated because of this, but we will not be able to meet in the official competition"
"This" Frankly speaking, Axun is just hot-blooded, and his IQ is usually online. He quickly understood after being hinted by Xiaoyou. "In that case, let's have an 'evenly matched, no regrets' battle, shall we?"
"Oh, was it such a wonderful battle that the referee was deeply impressed by it?" Seeing the red-haired man on the opposite side being so polite, Xiaoyou immediately smiled and nodded, "This is a very good idea!"
"Those two players?" Referee Alexander, who had been ignored for a long time - the E field next door was half-played, but the trainer on his side was still chatting. "Please hurry up and send out your own elves"
"Oh, I'm sorry" Axun nodded to the referee - the random roulette wheel on the electronic scoreboard previously showed that she would start the elf.
