Pokémon: The Journey of Ordinary People

Nearing the Quartz Plateau, Zhang Yu saw the crowded conference hall below from mid-air.

The venue is a huge circular building surrounded by countless auditoriums and stands. The entire venue is beautifully decorated with flowers, ribbons and lights everywhere.

Although the Grand Tournament is not as popular as the League Tournament, it still attracts a large number of viewers and participants. After all, it is also a formal large-scale competition, and many trainers hope to show their strength and charm through this competition.

Those who are able to participate in this competition usually have a certain level of strength, otherwise it would be difficult to cultivate Pokémon that require fancy moves.

Therefore, a large number of people came to watch the game. Because the game was magnificent enough, many official TV stations broadcast it.

After arriving at Pidgeot Airlines and returning Pidgeot, Zhang Yu and Liliai entered the competition venue.

"Hello, I'm Liliai, who has signed up for the competition. This is my gorgeous medal."

Lilia handed the illustrated book and medal to the staff and logged her information into the machine.

"Okay, the competition will start in two days, you can adjust your condition first."

The staff gave the two people two room cards, one for the contestant and one for the accompanying person.

However, they did not go into the room, but instead planned to take a look inside the venue and adapt to the environment.

The competition mode and rules were displayed on the big screen at the venue: The gorgeous competition was divided into three rounds, the preliminary round, the first review, and the second review.

The first two games are gorgeous performances, scored by three judges, and the last game is a gorgeous doubles match with a time limit of 5 minutes. The contestants must defeat their opponents in the most elegant and beautiful way possible. If the time limit is exceeded, the winner will be determined by the offensive score.

As a grand competition venue, the facilities inside are quite complete. In addition to the most basic Pokémon Center, there is even a snack street and various recreational areas.

"It's worthy of being a big competition..." Zhang Yu bought two Duoduo ice creams and took a bite.

"Of course. After all, this is the dream place for many trainers." Liliae took the ice cream and ate it too.

Anyway, the game hasn't started yet, so it doesn't matter if they relax for a while. The two of them strolled around and tasted delicious food in the snack street.

"Pipi~" "Ha~"

The two little Pokémon were also held in their arms and visited the venue together.

We spent two relaxing days like this, and finally on the third day we welcomed the opening ceremony of the gorgeous competition.

-

"Good morning, dear audience friends and trainers! The much-anticipated Grand Tournament officially begins today. I am the host, Lillian!"

......

After the judges were introduced, the glamour competition officially began.

The order of the competition is determined by drawing lots. Liliai drew number 50 and should be able to take her turn in the morning.

The first round is the preliminary round, where 270 winners will be selected from 64 contestants. Because it is a gorgeous show, each Pokémon only needs to show one move, so the scoring is very fast.

"It's your turn, Liliai, come on!" Zhang Yu gave Liliai an OK gesture to cheer her up.

Lilia also replied with an OK and went onto the stage.

"The next trainer to take the stage is Miss Liliae, a trainer from the Orange Islands. Let's wait and see what kind of wonderful performance she will bring!" the commentator introduced in a very formulaic manner.

"It's decided to be you! Huahua!"

"Ba Na~" Meilihua did several backflips in the air and landed lightly on the stage.

The sparkling pollen that was scattered when it turned over made its appearance receive a lot of cheers.

"Flowers, petals falling in profusion!"

"Ba Na!" After hearing Liliae's instruction, Meilihua lifted her leaf skirt with her hands and started spinning on tiptoe.

At the same time, petals emerged from its body and flew along with the dance.

"What a gorgeous move! It looks like Lilia is determined to win!"

After the presentations were over, Liliae came to the stage. The scores would only be known after all trainers had finished their presentations.

"That's great! Huahua's performance on the stage was beautiful!" Looking at the somewhat nervous Liliai, Zhang Yu handed her the popcorn in his hand.

"Huh - thank you Ayu, I still have confidence!" It's just the preliminaries. I've been training for so long, it won't be a big problem.

By the time all the trainers had finished their presentations, it was already evening.

The big screen at the venue displayed the list of 64 trainers who passed the preliminaries.

Liliae clenched her fists as she watched the names flash by.

"Yeah! I passed!" Liliai breathed a sigh of relief, her heart finally at ease.

"Great! Let's go to the restaurant and have something delicious to celebrate!" Zhang Yu was also very happy. It was a good start and they had to celebrate.

Of course, there were also trainers who failed and left the Quartz Plateau with regret that night.

-

After finishing the pudding in one bite, Liliae relaxed her brows.

"Ayu, you don't know how nervous I was when I was on stage. Even though it was only two minutes, I felt like two days had passed..."

Looking at Liliai, who was reviewing her grades like she was after an exam, Zhang Yu listened to her talk about her psychological journey with a smile.

"Pi?" Baby Pi said he didn't understand and used his short little hands to reach the small cake on the table.

Seeing this, the beautiful flower next to it picked up a spoon and fed it.

Because their Pokémon were not very big, except for Zhang Yu's Rhino, they released all the others to celebrate together.

"So, how are you going to perform in the first review tomorrow?" Zhang Yu asked.

Liliai patted Meimei's head and said, "I'm going to let Meimei play tomorrow. She's more skilled in controlling the moves."

"But how to match them still needs some thought..."

Zhang Yu nodded. He didn't know much about gorgeous combinations and couldn't help much, but he did share some battle ideas with Liliai.

After dinner, Zhang Yu bought some food and packed it for the unicorns. After a few days of training, the originally unruly unicorn leader also became obedient under the whip of the Queen of Flowers.

Plus, there were delicious foods, which made life much better than in the mountains. It also gradually accepted that it had been tamed.

Zhang Yu stroked his chin, looking at the happily eating unicorn rhino. It should be able to be used as a mount...
