Pokémon: Thunder Shatters the Darkness

Seeing the huge crowds of people at the entrance of the arena, Apprentice Bear still had his eyelids drooping, obviously not yet awake.

"I can't let you play with your phone all the time anymore."

Yang Xiao touched his apprentice Xiong's head and said, "Otherwise, I'm afraid you will have your days and nights reversed."

“Aha ...

Apprentice Xiong yawned, then fell asleep on Yang Xiao's chest.

Yang Xiao couldn't help but smile: "I put you in the Poké Ball."

Done.

He took out the Poké Ball and put his bear apprentice into it.

If you want to rest, a quiet environment is obviously more suitable for rest than a noisy environment.

Go to sleep.

It’s still early, no need to rush.

His gaze turned to the surging crowd in front of him.

Today is Saturday, a day for rest.

The crowd was mostly made up of parents with young children, who came to experience the atmosphere of the competition. The children held their parents' hands and pulled colorful balloons.

Their faces were filled with happy smiles.

There are many people of similar age to Yang Xiao, but they are far less conspicuous than the parents and children in the crowd.

The ticket price for the preliminary round is 20 yuan per ticket.

It was now nearly nine o'clock in the morning, and the competition for 31st to 40th place was taking place in the venue. Yang Xiao did not choose to stay in the venue to kill time, but chose to sit on a public chair outside.

Anyway, when it is his turn, the phone will vibrate to alert him.

Next to Yang Xiao, Zhang Da had his hands in his pockets, but his eyes were looking around like a scanner.

at first.

Yang Xiao thought that Zhang Da was helping him to look at the Pokémon of potential opponents. After all, most newcomers who had just obtained Pokémon didn't like to put their Pokémon into the Poké Ball.

later.

When he saw Zhang Da keeping his eyes on those beauties, he realized that this bastard was searching for good sisters who could drink with him.

Yang Xiao sighed: "Don't you have a girlfriend?"

"I didn't say what I was going to do."

Zhang Da spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders: "I just have a pair of eyes that appreciate beauty... Don't talk about me, you look like you're not worried at all?"

"Worried? What are you worried about?"

Yang Xiao said calmly: "Are you worried that I will win too quickly?"

"That's pretentious enough."

Zhang Da brushed off the unnecessary dust on his body and sat down next to Yang Xiao: "I asked around and found out that the Pokémon of several contestants this time are just one step away from reaching the Iron rank."

"Ah."

Yang Xiao's expression did not change: "Since you are here, I am not afraid. It's just a matter of seeing who is stronger."

"Makes sense."

Zhang Da fished out a wad of cash from his pocket and spread it out in front of Yang Xiao: "I knew you would say that, so I'm going to buy twenty tickets to show my recognition as brothers."

"Okay, thanks for the support."

Yang Xiao stretched and put on the sunglasses he had prepared in his pocket to cover his golden eyes.

I didn't see any powerful Pokémon.

Most of them are between levels 8 and 12. Their talents and overall abilities are average. It can be seen that they have been carefully cultivated, but unfortunately the gap has existed since birth.

"Buzz."

The entry vibration of the mobile phone is very obvious.

After turning off the vibration, Yang Xiao turned to Zhang Da and said, "It's the turn of No. 40 to No. 49. I'll go straight to the lounge after registering."

"Yeah... I'll be outside and help you keep an eye on those Pokémon."

"You'd better be watching Pokémon! But as a friend, I have to remind you that it's not worthwhile to spend money on tickets."

Zhang Da was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"because……"

Yang Xiao showed a confident smile under his sunglasses: "I will sweep the game in an instant."

Done.

He turned and walked towards the arena, leaving Zhang Da in a daze.

About a minute passed.

Zhang Da really couldn't help it, he stood up and spat on the ground: "Qiaoliwa is so pretentious...Did he sign up for the class? Damn, he didn't take me with him for such a good opportunity, did he?"

……

The time is just right.

As soon as I walked into the museum, I saw a staff member standing on a high platform, holding a microphone in his left hand and a piece of paper with names written on it in his right hand, and began to call out the numbers in order: "Is number 50 here? Is number 50 here?"

Someone raised his hand and shouted, "I'm here."

"Go directly to the bar to listen to the instructions and receive the props... Where is No. 51? Is No. 51 here?"

He looked around and saw that no one raised their hand, so he continued to ask: "One last time, is No. 51 here? No. 51's qualification is invalid! Is No. 52 here? If so, raise your hand..."

"…No. 53 is…"

"…No. 55, go to the bar and listen to the instructions…"

"…No. 56 is here, is No. 57 here?"

"exist."

Yang Xiao stood in front of the bar and said calmly: "I'm already at the bar, do I have to change my clothes?"

Done.

He held up a jersey with advertising slogans printed all over it.

【Super Farm! Nature’s freshest Moo Moo milk! 】

[National Professional League, we only watch Pikachu TV! ]

[Suocailing convenience store chain, easily solve three meals a day! 】

These ads are okay.

The issue is……

Which genius would print "This winter vacation, bring your brothers to get a circumcision surgery" right in the middle of a shirt?

There was constant laughter in the crowd.

"Uh……"

The staff member looked hesitant: "...I understand, but...well, you have to wear it."

"alright."

Yang Xiao put away his clothes reluctantly.

"Oh, I didn't notice it just now, this guy is so handsome."

"Yeah, it looks familiar...oh I know, it's that one!"

"Which one?"

"That one! The one Jiang Youyi mentioned in the video yesterday! There's a photo of him in the comments section, and they look exactly the same!"

"Oh my god, that's true. Let's go watch his game later."

There were voices of discussion one after another.

More and more people were discussing the topic, and more and more people were looking at him. Then, several students from No. 3 Middle School recognized him, which attracted another wave of attention from parents.

Ranked first in the class...isn't this a top student?

Bring your children some learning experience.

Yang Xiao seemed to be turning a deaf ear to it, but in fact the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

The plan worked.

"I'll repeat that to you."

The lady at the bar said responsibly, "Please change into your clothes before you go on stage. You don't need to return them to the bar after you finish. This is your number plate, and you need to pin it on your clothes later."

"Please do not change your participating Pokémon, otherwise you will be automatically judged as the loser."

"Your competition venue is..."

The young lady tapped on the keyboard and finally confirmed: "Please go to the central lounge. Because there is a missing person in this group, we need to draw lots to decide who will be promoted by a bye. You can go now."

"Ok."

Yang Xiao smiled and nodded, then looked up at the screen above his head.

After the advertisement finished playing on the screen, the photo that Yang Xiao had to attach when submitting his competition information appeared, and next to it was his competition venue.

Wool curls, black-framed glasses without prescription, and sportswear.

There was a subtle yet brilliant smile on his face.

There is no doubt that this was naturally pretended by Yang Xiao.

But he named this photo: "The pure high school boy who needs to eat."

Feeling the enthusiastic gazes behind him, Yang Xiao smiled knowingly.

But I'm sorry...

I am just a bad man who understands the advantages of my appearance and is good at using them to help myself achieve my ultimate goal!

Buy my tickets now (claps!)

Hurry! (Bang bang on the table!)
