Pokémon Showdown: Silver Peak

The battle in the Quartz League has finally settled. After an exciting preliminary round, Xiaozhi successfully advanced to the fifth round of the official competition. As the preliminaries came to an end, the contestants had a three-day leisurely vacation. The player village seemed particularly quiet at the moment, with only a handful of sixteen elite players still enjoying free food and accommodation.

Xiaozhi and his party of six were walking on a quiet street. There were few people on the path and the atmosphere was quiet and peaceful. Xiaoxia pouted and complained softly about her empty stomach, while Xiaoguang and Serena echoed their companions' hunger. Although Nazi said nothing, she expressed her agreement with her companion's proposal through her eyes.

"We will start vacation mode tomorrow, and we should treat ourselves tonight." Xiaogang suggested, and everyone agreed. Xiaozhi shrugged indifferently, since free food and drink were the perks of the contestants.

While everyone was talking, the figures of Hanako's mother and Dr. Oki appeared in sight. They stood at the door of Xiaozhi's player dormitory, waiting for their group of young people. Xiaozhi gratefully thanked them and expressed his gratitude to them for taking the trouble to come to the arena to support them.

Hanako's mother patted Xiaozhi's shoulder gently, "Silly boy, of course mommy wants to witness your glorious moments with her own eyes." She quietly approached Xiaozhi's ear and said mysteriously: "Moreover, mommy also took many photos of your competition. The video can be shown to my grandson in the future." As she spoke, she glanced meaningfully at the four girls behind Xiaozhi.

Xiaozhi suddenly felt a slight heat on his face and smiled awkwardly, "Thank you, Mom." He secretly sighed in his heart that the support and encouragement of his family is always the warmest reliance.

Dr. Oak gently patted Xiaozhi on the shoulder and praised: "Xiaozhi, your performance in the fourth round was quite outstanding."

Hanako's mother said with joy: "Yes, to celebrate your victory, I specially prepared your favorite dish today."

When Xiaozhi heard this, he gave a thumbs up and praised: "Mom is so awesome!"

Hanako's mother, who was full of confidence, puffed up her chest and smiled proudly: "Of course, I will take care of this kind of thing!"

So, in the five-star restaurant in the contestant village, Xiaozhi took a group of relatives and friends and sat around a sumptuous meal. This rich and fragrant table of delicacies is the result of half an hour of borrowing from the kitchen. After Dr. Oak's face and Xiaozhi's proper handling, they successfully muddled through.

Xiaozhi and the others were full of praise for this feast of motherly love. Xiaogang spoke first: "Mom's craftsmanship is really well-deserved, taking into account both nutrition and taste." Xiaoxia also sighed: "The taste is really unique and delicious." Xiaozhi said proudly: "Although the luxurious meal is also delicious , but I love my mother’s cooking the most.”

Hanako tasted the coffee with satisfaction, looked at the six Dr. Oaks and asked curiously: "Xiao Zhi, if you can continue to use the six Pokémon in the next game, how will you distribute them?" Xiao Zhi thought carefully and replied: " I think Charizard, Bulbasaur and Blastoise will still be the main ones, and the others will be flexibly adjusted according to the opponent's situation."

Dr. Oak nodded slightly and expressed appreciation: "This young man's idea is very good. If you need other Pokémon, please let us know at any time and I will send them immediately." He introduced Xiaozhi and Xiaozhi nodded in approval after hearing this, expressing his gratitude. .

After enjoying a delicious lunch, Dr. Oak and Hanako's mother were ready to return to Zhenxin Town. Xiaozhi and the other six decided to send them away first. Before leaving, Dr. Oak solemnly told Xiaozhi: "You must fight well, not only for your own honor, but also for Xiaomao." Xiaozhi replied firmly: "Doctor, please don't worry, I will Go all out."

When everyone was stepping into the elevator, an energetic voice came from the distance: "Please wait a moment, I want to take this elevator too." They left a door open and waited for the young man. After the boy arrived, he politely apologized to everyone. His eyes fell on Pikachu on Xiaozhi's shoulder, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He gently reached out and stroked Pikachu's cheek, that area was very comfortable for Pikachu.

Xiaoxia looked at this scene in surprise and praised: "This boy seems to understand Pikachu's habits very well."

That Pikachu's fur was as shiny as new, and it was obviously well taken care of. The boy said with admiration: "What an enviable Pikachu."

Xiaozhi responded: "Thank you for the compliment."

At this moment, the elevator suddenly vibrated and the surrounding area fell into darkness.

"What's going on? Is there a malfunction?" Dr. Omu asked calmly.

"I'm going to press the emergency call button immediately." Xiaogang looked for the button and pressed it quickly, but there seemed to be no response...

After observing, Dr. Oki guessed: "I'm afraid there's a power outage."

At this time, Xiaozhi noticed that the boy riding the elevator next to him was trying to disassemble the electrical box at the bottom of the elevator, although his technique was a little unfamiliar. Xiaozhi took the initiative and said, "Let me try it." He watched in surprise as the boy agreed. Xiaozhi skillfully connected a live wire to a neutral wire. He ordered Pikachu: "Pikachu, please use electric shock." He connected the thread to Pikachu's face.

With Pikachu's electric shock, the elevator regained its light and began to operate. Xiaozhi comforted Pikachu: "Hold on a little longer." With Pikachu's continued efforts, everyone finally arrived downstairs safely and walked out of the elevator.

"Great, we're out!" Xiaoxia jumped happily.

Both mother and Dr. Oak expressed their gratitude to Xiaozhi: "Thanks to you, Xiaozhi." But Xiaozhi responded modestly: "Actually, it's nothing. It's mainly due to Pikachu. Without it, we wouldn't be able to succeed." He said gently He patted Pikachu's head as a sign of appreciation.

At this time, the boy wearing the blue hat took the initiative to walk towards Xiaozhi and stretched out his hand: "My name is Hiro, thank you for your help just now."

"I'm Xiaozhi, please give me some advice." Xiaozhi stretched out his hand and shook it tightly with Hiro. There was an aura of heroes cherishing heroes between them. As Ash's former rival, Hiro officially makes his debut. Just after parting ways with Hiro, a loud announcement immediately spread around: "Attention all contestants, the competition committee has informed that please bring all the Poké Balls to the lottery venue immediately."

"What on earth is this going to do?" Xiaoxia couldn't help but asked curiously.

"Humph, if something goes wrong, you will become a monster. Xiaoxia, you and Xiaogang go to Miss Junsha and report it. I will go to the scene to investigate the situation." Xiaozhi ordered, and then he walked calmly towards the lottery venue. Go.

Along the way, Xiaozhi came to the lottery venue and found that almost all participating trainers had gathered here. However, the lottery venue was not opened, and only a van was parked at the entrance of the conference.

"Xiao Zhi!" came a familiar and friendly voice.

Xiaozhi looked back, smiled and shook his head: "There is no need to add the word 'player', just call him Xiaozhi." Thinking of what was about to happen, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. He gently took Ah Hong in his arms and whispered in a low voice: "Hong, do you want to save the world together? Later you and I will be like this..." Hope also lit up in Ah Hong's eyes, and he nodded frequently in agreement.

Team Rocket has not yet realized that their whereabouts have been exposed, and is still happily waiting to receive the Pokémon from all the contestants. As for the outcome, we still have to wait and see...
