[Pokemon] Sycamore

"P1 fighting competition?" Xiaotong, who was busy helping the Eevees with basic adaptive training, raised his head in confusion.

"Yes, yes~ Look, this is the leaflet I came back specifically for!" Xiaokui excitedly waved a thin leaflet and kept introducing the content of the competition to Xiaotong.

After leaving the Beauty Street, Xiaotong and the others came to a city that seemed to be holding some large-scale event. Trainers with fighting-type Pokémon could be seen competing with each other everywhere. They didn’t know the reason before, but after listening to Xiaotong When Aoi said this, the truth finally came out.

"Xiaotong, don't you have Lucario? Let him participate in it, it will definitely be crushed! How about it? Do you want to participate and see?" Xiaokui said while dancing, as if it was her own who was going to participate. Like a Pokémon.

It's not Xiaokui who's talking. She's already used to the intensity of Xiaotong's training. Even she herself has been brutally attacked and experienced it herself. The teams of contestants she met on the street are simply too weak!

Indeed, Lucario met the only qualification for the fighting category, but Xiaotong did not make a decision immediately. She just looked at Lucario, who was acting as her training assistant. The meaning was obvious, that she wanted it for herself. Decide.

"Lucario~" Seeing Xiaotong hand over the choice to it, Lucario just hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement. It also wanted to see what kind of strong people would appear on the playing field.

"Now that it's been decided, let's have a big fight, Lucario." Taking back the Eevee, Xiaotong patted Lucario on the shoulder. She has absolute confidence in her partner, and besides, honor is such a There is never too much stuff.

The first step to participate is of course to register. Go to the organizer, which is the Pokémon Center, to complete the formalities, and then you just wait to participate.

"Yeah!? Isn't this Xiaotong?" Xiaotong, who had just completed the formalities and was about to step out of the Pokémon Center, heard her name being called out loudly. It felt familiar. She turned around and saw that it was indeed Xiaozhi is right.

Because Xiaoxue had already gone on a trip before Xiaozhi and his party arrived at the Beauty Street. Xiaogang, who had not seen Xiaoxue in person, was so disappointed that he did not stay in the town for more, and then he happened to catch up with Xiaotong and the two. people.

"Do you also want to participate?" Xiaogang, who was following Xiaozhi, asked.

"That's right! Isn't Xiaotong, this black and blue Pokémon, also of the fighting type?" Xiaoxia said hesitantly. She was not very familiar with Lucario, but she was familiar with the battle against the giant stinging jellyfish. She was deeply impressed.

"Lucario is my first partner. Xiaogang is right, he will also participate." As soon as Xiaotong finished speaking, he saw Xiaoxia suddenly relaxed, while Xiaogang and Xiaozhi also looked regretful. He couldn't help but asked in confusion: "Are there any problems with Lucario participating in the competition?"

"Luca!" Lucario also expressed a small part of his momentum while Xiaotong asked, and put pressure on Xiaogang and Xiaozhi with dissatisfaction.

"Ahahaha... No... This has nothing to do with Xiaotong, but in this way, you can definitely fulfill your beauty wish." Xiaozhi said embarrassedly, and Xiaotong only then discovered that there was a strange man The women followed Xiaozhi and the others.

Summarizing the causes and consequences, the thing is that in order to stop Aimi's father from being addicted to fighting, Xiaozhi promised to bring the hot monkey to defeat Aibi Lang, Aimee's father.

"This is a good idea, but... Xiaozhi, your fiery monkey has just been conquered not long ago, right?" Xiaotong said with certainty, after all, he hadn't seen it the last time they met.

"So they will be relieved after hearing that Xiaotong will also participate in the competition." Xiaoxia did not hesitate to dismantle Xiaozhi, and after speaking, she glanced at Xiaozhi and Xiaogang teasingly.

"Xiaotong, you don't know, Fiery Monkey is still not even willing to listen to Xiaozhi." Xiaoxia continued to gloat.

Being so excited by Xiaoxia, Xiaozhi's flammable penis immediately exploded. "Stop blabbering! My fiery monkey will definitely win!"

"Oh? You will win? Are you sure you have won against Xiaotong?" Xiaoxia has absolute confidence in this aspect, and that confidence comes entirely from Xiaotong's abnormal strength.

"I...I..." Xiaozhi was speechless for a moment. No matter how passionate he was, the reality was still cruel.

"Well, maybe this battle will be an opportunity for you to connect with the Fiery Monkey." Xiaotong said optimistically: "But, I have reserved the championship."

"That's not necessarily the case, girl, young people nowadays are really brave." Just as everyone was chatting enthusiastically, a sudden interjection interrupted them.

"Ah!? It's Amy's father!" Hearing Xiaozhi shouting, Xiaotong knew that the real owner was coming. Look at Aibi Lang next to this uncle. Sure enough, he is really capable. His muscles are very strong and his steps are fast. Very powerful, it is easy to tell that he is a player who has done a lot of training.

But well~

"Your Aibilang has been raised very well." He didn't say anything, but just complimented Amy's father, Shan Dou. Xiaotong led Lucario past them. Xiaokui saw Zhuang also quickly followed, leaving Xiaozhi and his group inexplicable.

"Dad! If you don't win the championship, come home with me!" Amy has never had a close relationship with Xiaotong from beginning to end, and she doesn't understand Xiaotong's strength. She just perseveres in trying to persuade her father to go home, but seeing Seeing that her father didn't react at all to her words and just stood there blankly, Amy's anger was about to explode.

"father!"

Hearing this furious roar, Shan Dou trembled all over, as if he had been bound by something just now and was now being released. He looked at Aibi Lang, who was in the same situation as him, with an expression of someone who was surviving a disaster.

Only then did Amy realize that her father's whole body was covered in cold sweat in this short period of time.

"Dad...Dad? What's wrong?" At this time, she couldn't care about anything anymore. No matter how much she complained, she was still her father. Amy asked worriedly.

"It's... so scary. What kind of momentum is this..." Shan Dou ignored his daughter and just murmured to himself.

The moment Xiaotong passed by him just now, the oppressive feeling that sent chills all over his body still remained, and that pressure didn't just come from the blue-black Pokémon... Thinking of Xiaotong Shan Dou's faint glance as he passed by made Shan Dou feel frightened.

"Aibi Lang, maybe this battle will be a tough one, you have to be mentally prepared." Even though Xiaotong was demonstrating like this, Shan Dou, who had the soul of a martial artist, still didn't want to give up. He looked at him with a serious expression. Abby Lang.

"Abby~" He bumped his fists with both hands, and Aibilang reluctantly cheered himself up. It didn't want to be timid before fighting. Everything would only be revealed after fighting. It was also a fighting Pokémon, so it believed so deeply.

"We...seem to be excluded." Xiaozhi scratched his head and said with a wry smile, while Xiaogang hid in the corner and drew circles because he was ignored by the beautiful big sister again.

"Alas~ Why don't any of my traveling companions be reliable?" Xiaoxia sighed while stroking her forehead.

......

"Miss Xiaotong from Zhenxin Town, Miss Xiaotong from Zhenxin Town, if you hear this broadcast, please go to the main counter in Pokémon. Your email is here."

After separating from Xiaozhi and his group, Xiaotong had just stepped into the Pokémon Center again when she heard such a broadcast, and she suddenly felt full of doubts.

Who would send her something at this time?Putting aside who that person is, it would be very difficult just to know where she was traveling, right?

Basically, it couldn't be Salar. Although she would convey some interesting things about her travels and her longings by sending letters every once in a while, Aunt Hanako would always convey them on her behalf. Xiaotong could understand, after all. Salar doesn't like contact with outsiders or even rejects them. Accepting help from Xiaozhi's mother is already the limit. It is even more impossible for him to go to the Oak Research Institute to use the video call. Moreover, even if the geographical location is written on the letter, he will wait for a reply to be sent. By then, it would be impossible for him to stay where he was.

But who else would it be if it wasn’t family?

With a suspicious attitude, Xiaotong walked quickly towards the counter and took a letter and a small heavy package from Miss Joy.

Having just received the letter, Xiaotong's first action was to turn over the back to check the sender, and then she was surprised to find...

Zifuqi Dawu! ?

"Miss Joy, when did this arrive?" Xiaotong asked uncertainly.

"Time? Please wait a moment, I will check it for you." After typing on the keyboard skillfully and quickly, Joey quickly gave the answer.

The time was, it arrived this morning, and it was via expedited mail that would be delivered within a day! ?

Does this mean that Dawu sent it yesterday?

This makes sense, after all, after finishing the call with Daigo yesterday, he specifically asked about his current travel progress.

After thanking Miss Joy, Xiaotong walked to the rest area aside with full of doubts. While waiting for Xiaokui, she opened the special letter paper with a metallic mechanical design printed on the outside.

It really has his style, he is worthy of being the Iron Emperor among the champions, Xiaotong thought, and spread out the letter paper in his hand without any slow movement.

[To: Xiaotong

How are you, Xiaotong.

Although we often talk on the phone, this is the first time I have written to you in person like this.

The reason why I am writing this letter is mainly to thank you for the information you gave me about the comet fragments. Fortunately, I have found one of the targets I have been looking for. It is all thanks to you. Maybe I am too focused. I fell into a blind spot because of my search, or I was too confident in my experience and abilities. If it hadn't been for your reminder, I still wouldn't have been able to break out of my somewhat rigid thinking framework.

I still want to say something here, you~ really don’t look like a girl of your age. You are like a rough stone that has not been polished yet can emit dazzling brilliance from the beginning, making people unconsciously... I am attracted to you, and I look forward to what kind of future you can create. 】

Seeing this, Xiaotong's cheeks inevitably turned red. Somewhere in the letter seemed to have been altered. From the remaining handwriting, it could be seen that the original words were...

"I'm unknowingly attracted to you"? !

Shaking her head violently to get rid of this ambiguous sentence and suppressing the little thoughts that had not yet emerged, Xiaotong continued to read.

[Is the recent challenge going well?Hmm... This sentence seems to be redundant. I believe that with your strength, there is probably no pressure at all, right?

Enclosed is a special prop that I recently discovered. After experiments, I found that it can enhance the power of Pokémon's steel-type moves. As a thank you gift, I hope it can be of some help to you.

Sincerely, Dawu]
