Pokémon: Forced to Become a Dragon Master at the Beginning

Xia Yu returned to Xingguang City and reunited with Zhao Ruohan and the other two, and then went to Tiandu City together to participate in the upcoming provincial college cup competition.

Xia Yu gained a lot from the one-month training camp for the mountain patrol team. First, he captured a Pteranodon, and Zhao Ruohan captured a Mystic Jaw, two Pokémon with king-level qualifications.

Due to the restrictions of the rules, these two Pokémon do not meet the requirements for participating in the College Cup, and they are not registered with the Pokémon Association, so they cannot participate in the College Cup. Otherwise, Xia Yu and Zhao Ruohan can kill all the enemies with just this fossil pterosaur. Therefore, Xia Yu gave the fossil pterosaur to his brother Xia Luo, as a means of self-defense and a trump card for the Xia family.

In addition to these two Pokémon, Xia Yu’s biggest gain was Diancie and Diancie Mega Evolution Stone. Xia Yu did not tell anyone about Diancie, not even his family.

Because not telling them about this matter is actually a kind of protection for them. The preciousness of the divine beast is self-evident.

Finally, the physical fitness of all of Xia Yu’s Pokémon has been greatly improved, and their strength is also growing rapidly.

The baby dragon broke through to the lord level and evolved into a Kabutosaurus and learned the defense skill.

Of course, the most crucial thing is that the strength of the overlord-level Duolong Messiah is still growing rapidly, and is about to reach the quasi-gym master level. Xia Yu estimates that with Duolong Messiah's current strength, he may evolve at any time. As long as he evolves into Duolongqi, his strength will increase dramatically.

This also made Xia Yu sigh that the Pot of Punishment was really powerful and worthy of being a divine weapon.

day city.

The Xishu Province College Cup provincial competition is about to start.

The entire Tiandu City was also immersed in a carnival and lively atmosphere. Enthusiastic fans posted posters of their favorite contestants on the streets and put stickers of the city they supported on their faces.

There are even some fanatical fans who rent giant display screens outside buildings and advertising screens in subway stations to cheer for their favorite players.

There are a total of eighteen gyms in Xishu Province, corresponding to eighteen attributes, and each gym corresponds to a city that is eligible to participate.

There are 18 cities, and the top four from each city, that is, 4x72, a total of 2 provincial contestants. In addition, there are 74 champions and runners-up from the social track of Xishu Province, a total of contestants, which constitute all the contestants of the provincial contest.

The champion of each city will be seeded to advance directly to the top 18 of Xishu Province, thus eliminating places in the top .

The remaining 56 players will play in a 3V3 singles elimination tournament. After two rounds of competition, 14 players will be selected and together with the 18 seeded players, they will form the top 32 of the main competition.

As the champion of Xingguang City, Xia Yu naturally did not have to participate in the first two rounds of the competition and directly advanced to the top 32.

Therefore, he also got three days of rest, in which he could have a good rest and watch other players' competitions. This is how he knew himself and his enemy, and thus could win every battle.

…………

Xia Yu stayed in the hotel, looking through the information of each player. From the beginning of the main competition, it was obvious that the opponent's strength increased instantly.

At least Xia Yu saw that the weakest of the seeded players from other cities had lord-level Pokémon, and the vast majority had overlord-level Pokémon.

On the table in front of him was a girl’s profile. She was also this year’s Tiandu City champion, Li Shiyu, and was also the most popular candidate for the Xishu Province championship.

If nothing unexpected happens, this girl will be Xia Yu's biggest enemy in the fight for the provincial championship. Her trump card Pokémon is a Shiny Gyarados, which is particularly good at water attributes.

…………

The three days of competition passed in a flash, and the competition of Fatty Wu and his two companions ended on the first day. Unfortunately, they all failed in the first round.

There is no way around it. Compared with contestants from other cities, the strength of contestants from Xingguang City is still too weak. As a result, Xia Yu is the only contestant left in the entire Xingguang City.

The residents of Starlight City have long been accustomed to or have anticipated this result. Starlight City is weak to begin with, and the situation has been the same in previous years.

It’s just that the emergence of Xia Yu this year has given everyone a little more expectations. After all, Xia Yu had a nearly dominant performance in the Xingguang City preliminaries and can still compete with other contestants.

…………

The sun is scorching, it's three o'clock in the afternoon.

Xia Yu stood backstage, taking deep breaths and doing warm-up exercises, preparing to go on stage. It was his turn to compete in the next match.

Listening to the deafening shouts outside, Xia Yu's heart beat faster and he felt vaguely excited.

He put on the Starlight City battle uniform and looked in the mirror, gazing at the three Pokémon beside him.

Lizard King, Charizard, and Buzz Bat.

These are also the three Pokémon that Xia Yu used this time. Among them, Lizardlord's strength has reached the Overlord level, and Charizard and Buzzbat are only one step away from the Overlord level, and their strength is quite good.

However, the opponents he has to face are even stronger. Almost all of them are Overlord-level Pokémon, and there are even Pokémon at the gym leader level. This makes Xia Yu feel a little nervous.

Every game from now on will be very difficult for Xia Yu.

"Xia Yu, get ready to go on stage!" Following the staff's reminder, Xia Yu took out the Poké Ball and put the three Pokémon back into the Poké Ball, ready to be ready at any time.

…………

"Dear audience friends, the next match will be very exciting. The seeded player Shang Hongxin from Xiongzhou City will compete against the seeded player Xia Yu from Xingguang City! Let us wait and see what kind of sparks will be created by the duel between the two seeded players. Please invite the two players to the stage."

As the host's voice fell, the lifting platform slowly rose, and Xia Yu and Shang Hongxin fought at the same time.

The entire battlefield was very wide. Due to the distance, from Xia Yu's side, Shang Hongxin's face on the opposite side could not be seen clearly.

The venue still uses a combination of puddles, ground and rocks, which gives water-type Pokémon some space to play.

"Everyone should be familiar with today's two contestants. They are the Dragon-type trainer Xia Yu and the Poison-type trainer Shang Hongxin. Although Xia Yu is a Dragon-type trainer, we all know that the main Pokémon Xia Yu uses, Lizardlord and Charizard, do not have dragon attributes." The commentator in the stands was Cheng Taiheng, the official commentator of the Western Shu TV station, who was also the most popular commentator in the province. He said jokingly.

In almost every competition, Xia Yu’s identity as a dragon-type trainer would be brought up.

"Shang Hongxin from Xiangzhou City is a poison-type trainer. His signature Pokémon are a Gengar, Trillion, and Crystalflower. Judging from the apparent strength of both sides, Shang Hongxin is definitely stronger. I also predict that Shang Hongxin can win the game 3 to 1 or 3 to 2. Jiang Yao, who do you think will win this game?"

Next to Cheng Taiheng sat a young and beautiful lady, who was none other than the official female commentator Jiang Yao: "Then I will support Xia Yu and guess he will win the match 3-2."

"Okay, the game will start soon, let's turn our attention to the field."
