Pokémon: The Climb

At this time, it is past 12 o'clock. The conference usually ends at 4 p.m.

The time required for the battle, the time for players to get on and off the court, plus other wasted time, even if a battle is 10 minutes, only 24 games can be played in one venue in one afternoon, so when it is Yang Yan's turn, he will The probability is after 3 o'clock, which is already relatively late.

"I am in the 22th round at venue 56." After Gao Liu said his round, he asked the others: "What about you?"

"Round 26 on field 40."

"Round 7 on field 13."

……

Everyone recounted their turns.

"It's great that no one has encountered it."

"Kumi is right, I hope it will be like this in the future."

"With such a large number of people, the chances of us meeting each other in the first few games are slim, but after that... let's survive the one in front of us first!"

Gao Liu said with some regret: "I probably won't be able to play today. I'm going to let everyone see my current strength."

Yang Yan smiled and said: "Don't worry, it will be the same tomorrow."

"Well everyone, I'm going to prepare now."

The speaker was Yaki. His turn was Game 19 on Field 3, and he was the one with the highest turn among everyone.

"Come on!" everyone said.

Yashu nodded, adjusted his glasses, and left with a calm expression.

"Should we go to dinner, or watch two games first?" Jiumei asked.

It was already lunch time, but even so, no one in the audience left.

Everyone already knew that the conference would last all day, so they either brought their own dry food before coming, or they could buy it directly from the small food stalls wandering the aisles.

For contestants like Yang Yan and others, the alliance has also prepared an open canteen for the players to eat at any time.

Whether it's a food stall or a canteen, the prices of things are normal market prices. The Carlos Alliance obviously has no plans to raise prices and make money because of this.

Of course, other leagues do the same.

"There are few people now. I'm going to eat first. Otherwise, there will be more and more people in the cafeteria when the first round players come down," Yang Yan said.

"Yang Yan is right. Let's eat first. After we finish eating, we can focus more on studying our opponents or watching the game." Shouzhu agreed.

Seeing that two people were already going to eat first, the others didn't know what to say, so they all decided to go together.

When they arrived at the cafeteria, they discovered that there were already many people here. If they were slower, it might be more difficult to get in line.

When they finished their meal and sat down, Takayanagi said to everyone: "Look, Yasuki's game is about to begin."

After hearing this, everyone took out their mobile phones, called up Yashu's battle and started watching together.

Yaki's opponent was an uncle about 30 years old, who used Carlos's more common grass-type Pokémon - Mount Goat.

Yaju's Pokémon can be regarded as the more common spiny shell.

Both of them have high-level strength, and they restrain each other in terms of attributes. It is difficult for Yang Yan to predict the result for a while.

After the battle began, the grass-type's difficulty was brought into full play by the mount goat.

On the contrary, the spiny shell's ability to move on the ground is very poor. It is basically being beaten frequently and only relies on its strong defense force for support.

"Yaki's situation seems to be a little bad. In this case, the Pokémon with stronger mobility should be the ones to use." Takayanagi tapped the table, looking extremely anxious, wishing he could go up and fight for Yaju himself.

"Yaki has such a personality." Rina whispered.

This sentence actually tells Takayanagi that he and Yashu are two people with different personalities.

Takayanagi is a proactive type who tends to attack, while Yaki is an opportunistic type who tends to be conservative.

Yang Yan didn't say anything and kept watching carefully. Because this is the first time he has seen Yashu's official battle. Before, on the ship, they were just sparring, so he couldn't tell the depth. Now is the best time to observe his strength.

He has not forgotten what Yashu had vaguely pointed out at him at the beginning.

Unfortunately, he didn't see much usefulness in this battle until the end.

If I really want to say it, it is that Yaki was calm throughout the whole process, making almost no mistakes, and he was able to catch his opponent's mistakes and counterattack.

It can be seen that Yaki's basic skills as a trainer are very solid.

Yes, the result of this game was Yaki winning.

Seeing this situation, everyone was happy for Yashu.

After Yashu came back, he didn't show much excitement, just like usual.

After eating, everyone returned to the player area to watch other people's games, while waiting for their teammates or their own games.

The second one of them to play is Shouzhu.

The Pokémon she used this time was a three-in-one Magneto.

This is quite the right choice.

The strength of the three-in-one magnet monster is average among her team, but its resistance is among the best.

When you don't know what Pokémon your opponent will use, using Pokémon with more resistance is a basic tactic that most people understand.

The three-in-one Magnemite is now stronger than when they were separated, but its strength is limited, and it cannot be compared with the earth-shaking changes in the strength of the Yangyan Pokémon.

This is normal. After all, most of the money spent on guarding the beads is used to train newly conquered Pokémon, and old pets can only get a limited share.

Shouzhu's opponent was unfortunately a trainer who used the Proud Pheasant. The flying type was completely defeated by the electric type, so Shouzhu successfully advanced to the next round.

After that, it’s Yang Yan’s game, and everyone else’s games will be tomorrow.

Before going on the field, Yang Yan was still watching other people's games.

He found that only about half of all battles used high-strength Pokémon.

This means that among the 4388 people, there are many people with average strength.

Because for these people with average strength, if they want to pass a few more rounds of preliminary rounds, sending the strongest Pokémon is the best choice.

Those who send intermediate-level Pokémon onto the field are basically not trying to hide their strength, but they really don’t have high-level Pokémon to use.

Therefore, in these competitions, you can often see high-level strength versus mid-level strength. Battles between two high-level players like Yaju and Moruzhu can be considered relatively rare.

Enter the competition field through the player tunnel.

There are fierce battles all around, and in the distance are the shouts of the audience that keep coming to mind, and the commentator's wonderful explanations are coming from the loudspeaker.

In such an atmosphere, those who have never seen a big scene are likely to be nervous and may not even be able to show their normal strength.

But Yang Yan won't, he is very excited now.

"This is my stage, the place where I prove myself, and the place where I will move to a higher mountain!"
