Pokémon Devil King

"Sister, are you okay?" Xiaosheng looked at his sister with concern. He just spoke bluntly sometimes, not that he really didn't care about Xiaoyao.

Xiaoyao looked up at Xiaosheng and forced a smile, "Yeah, I'm fine, just a little nervous."

Seeing this, Xiaogang stretched out his arm, gently patted Xiaoyao's shoulder, and comforted her, "You don't have to put so much pressure on yourself. Jiuji was not a very good trainer when he first started participating in the competition! Moreover, the coordination competition is not only a competition of strength, but more about showing your own characteristics and charm. I believe that you can do well."

Xiaozhi also joined in the comforting: "Yes, Xiaoyao, don't underestimate yourself. Everyone has their own characteristics and highlights. Your performance in the gorgeous competition will definitely make people shine."

At this time, Pikachu also jumped onto Xiaoyao's legs, making a cheerful "Pika Pika" sound, cheering Xiaoyao on in his own way.

Jiuji just kept smiling and didn't say anything special. She believed that Xiaoyao, the little sun, would not give up because of this setback.

As Xiaoyao listened to her friends' words, the haze in her heart gradually dissipated, and her eyes rekindled the fire of fighting spirit.

"You are right. I can't give up so easily. I must work harder and at least make sure that my performance leaves no regrets!" She stood up and nodded firmly to everyone.

After saying that, Xiaoyao turned to look at Jiuji, with anticipation in her eyes: "Jiuji, can I learn about the Gorgeous Competition with you? I think if I can learn with you, I may have a deeper understanding of the Gorgeous Competition."

"It can't be considered studying. I've only been studying the gorgeous competition this month. Maybe I don't know as much as you do, Xiaoyao." Jiuji agreed. It was all training anyway, and it was a good opportunity for him and Xiaoyao to exchange experiences about coordinators.

Seeing Xiaoyao cheer up again, Xiaosheng, Xiaogang and Xiaozhi were relieved. They knew that once Xiaoyao made a decision, she would go all out to achieve it.

"By the way, Jiuji, are these two Pokémon eggs that you have newly obtained?" Xiaogang's eyes fell on the egg of the Round Shark. He couldn't help but feel his occupational disease coming back. He wanted to ask a few questions when he saw it, "This one seems to be lifeless, and it doesn't have much luster."

"This one was just snatched back from poachers recently. I have been adjusting the culture medium these days. In a few days, I will send it back to its original habitat, so don't worry too much." Jiuji explained briefly.

"So that's how it is. Those poachers are really bad." Xiaozhi, Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng nodded in unison after hearing this.

The group didn't think there was anything strange about Jiuji getting the poacher's egg. After all, their journey was always full of challenges and adventures.

"Well, this group of poachers has been captured by Miss Junsha and her team. They shouldn't have the chance to cause trouble again." Jiuji's words made everyone breathe a sigh of relief and ended the topic.

The group of people sat in the Pokémon Center for a while. Before they could get up and leave, the door of the center opened again, welcoming a familiar face.

To be precise, it was Xiaoyao and the others' acquaintance - Xiaoshun, an outstanding coordination trainer and also Xiaoyao's rival in the Gorgeous Competition.

He was sending the seriously injured Poison Rose for treatment.

After some conversation, Xiaoyao and the others understood the situation.

It turns out that Poison Rose was seriously injured in a battle with an opponent who called himself the Masked Messenger, so she can't participate in the gorgeous competition tomorrow. Xiao Shun has decided to give up this green competition.

After saying goodbye to Xiaoshun, Xiaoyao's fighting spirit was ignited even more vigorously.

She pulled Jiuji and ran outside, eager to train immediately to improve the Pokémon's strength.

"The opponent can even defeat Xiao Shun. I don't know what kind of person he is. I have to work harder!" Xiao Yao said this and did it.

"Meowth, come on stage!" Xiao Yao called out the Pokémon that was going to participate in the competition, a cute pink cat.

"Meow~" As soon as Xiangwei Miao appeared, he started chasing his tail and running around in circles, but he still responded to Xiaoyao in a timely manner.

"It's a cat with a long tail, so cute!" Jiuji exclaimed. With its small body and soft voice, it is really suitable to be held in the arms as a pillow!

At the same time, Jiuji also released his own nine tails.

Different from the lively Cat with a Long Tail, the Nine-Tailed Fox seemed more reserved and noble. It licked the fur on its tail gracefully with a lazy posture.

"Wow, this is it!" Xiaozhi No. 2 excitedly opened the pokedex.

A familiar Pokédex voice sounded: "Kyuubi, a fox Pokémon, is famous for its golden fur and nine long tails. It is said that it can live for a thousand years."

"Is this the Pokémon that Jiuji is going to compete in? It's so beautiful!" Xiaoyao exclaimed, "Okay, then we can't lose, Meowth, let's practice our new special move, Blizzard!"

"Meow--"

I don’t know if it was because Xiaoyao didn’t explain the instructions clearly, or because Xiangwei Miao was too obedient, but the little guy’s blizzard was actually released directly towards them!

"Nine-tailed Fox." Jiuji responded quickly and commanded Nine-tailed Fox to use protective skills.

With the help of the Nine-Tailed Fox, Blizzard's attack was cleverly split up and bypassed the protective circle without causing any damage.

"Thank you for your help!" Xiaoyao smiled awkwardly, "OK, you are already familiar with Blizzard's special moves. Next, practice hitting the ball with a series of slaps!"

"Wait a minute, Xiaoyao." Jiuji stopped her, "Is your Xiangwei Miao really familiar with blizzards?"

Being used to seeing his own Pokémon's Blizzard Skill, Jiuji saw the problem with this Blizzard at a glance: "From the power of the Blizzard, Catumo's performance seems to be sufficient, but did you notice that the Blizzard just now lasted too short, less than five seconds. Normally, the Blizzard should last at least ten seconds. This phenomenon is probably because Catumo is not proficient enough in the Blizzard Skill."

"Ah! Is that so, Cat with the Tail?" Xiao Yao looked at her Cat with the Tail in surprise. She herself was not quite sure, but the Cat with the Tail was indeed released successfully just now.

Xiangwei Miao stopped playing and tilted his head to look at Xiaoyao.

Well, the kid looked like he didn't understand.

"You can let Catmushi use Blizzard a few more times to confirm. If you find out the problem during the performance, it will be too late." Jiuji suggested.

Xiaoyao nodded and prepared to teach Xiangwei Miao how to use Blizzard again.

However, at this moment, a sudden evil wind blew past, and a mysterious figure appeared in front of them like a ghost.

This character was wearing a black cloak and a strange mask on his face. He was the masked messenger that Xiao Shun mentioned before.
