Pokemon: Release? Nonexistent

Chapter 1196 National Park

(Second update!! Please collect and send flowers!!)

"Natural Wildlife Park??" Misty asked a little confused.

"Yeah! I heard that this generation has built a natural wild park, and there are quite a few wild insect Pokémon gathered here."

Xiaogang nodded slightly and responded while looking at the guide.

"Uh... Bug Pokémon?" Misty was stunned after hearing Xiaogang's words.

If she wasn't used to following Ash, she wouldn't want to stay for another minute after hearing this.

"Then what are all these people here for?"

It is said to be a natural wildlife park, but it looks very lively in front of me, and it doesn't look like it is in the wild at all.

At this time, behind the long queue in front, a man with a billboard in his hand came over. When he saw the three people, he also walked up quickly.

"Three of you, are you also here to participate in the Insect Catching Conference?"

The visitor spoke enthusiastically to the three of them. Upon hearing this, Misty said a little doubtfully.

"Insect Catching Conference?"

“Yes, the Insect Catching Conference is an event held every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday in our National Park! 980″

The visitor came to the crowd with a billboard in his hand, which happened to be promoting the Insect Catching Conference.

"What kind of rules are they?" Xiaogang also asked curiously.

"The rule is, within the specified time, take out one of the Pokémon you have captured and score it. The rarest and most difficult Pokémon to capture in this park will get the first place!"

As the other party spoke, he turned the billboard over, and the ratings of various Pokémon were written on the back.

For example, some Catterpie and Weedle have relatively low ratings, while Pokémon such as Scyther, Pinsir, Beedrill, and Butterfree have relatively high ratings.

"The top three will get generous rewards! How about participating?" After finishing speaking, the other party also specifically mentioned the rewards.

"I...I'd better forget it!"

Misty responded immediately. Although she is no longer afraid of bug Pokémon, she still has no desire to conquer Bug Type Pokémon.

"Ash, what about you?" Xiaogang wasn't surprised to see Misty refuse. It was strange that she would agree.

"It's not a bad idea to have some fun!" After hearing this, Ash responded. Since it was a competition with rewards, it might as well take part.

Ash has long known that there is an activity like the Insect Catching Conference, but he has never experienced it personally. It feels similar to the wild wilderness area in the Kanto Region, except that there are fewer species that they can capture.

"If you want to participate in the competition, you can go to Nali to sign up!"

The organizer was also very happy to hear that Ash was willing to participate, and then quickly reminded him.

The number of people queuing up during the conversation has decreased a lot, and it seems that everyone has almost finished signing up.

"good!"

Ash nodded slightly, and then the three of them walked towards the registration area. Neither Xiaogang nor Misty planned to participate, but just accompanied Ash to register.

Ash just wants to have fun. The rules of this event indicate that only Trainers under the age of sixteen can participate.

It seems that it is easy to catch some insect Pokémon, and in the anime, it is also easy to see that the protagonist group will encounter various rare Pokémon.

But in fact, in this reality, although most Trainers travel outside in their teens, there are really very few who can become excellent Trainers.

So catching bugs seems simple, but the conference has stipulated grade levels. It is obvious that they are confident that not many Trainers below this age can handle the powerful bug Pokémon.

Otherwise, the organizer will suffer losses. You must know that their conference is completely free of charge.

The three of them walked into the queue, looked forward (ccfb), and found that there were not many people in front of them, and at this time, a figure was finishing registration.

After signing up, he turned around and walked over, looking down at the Pokémon following him as he walked.

"Huh? That's..."

Misty was slightly startled when she saw the person turning around and walking back after registration.

"Casey??" Ash and Xiaogang also looked over, and Xiaogang subconsciously spoke.

"Um??"

"Ah!!! It's you, Ash, Xiaogang, Misty!!"

When he heard the voice and looked up, the other party was slightly startled when he saw the three people, and then quickly came to the three of them.

The visitor was none other than Rookie Trainer Casey, whom she met when she first set out in New Bark Town, and the Pokémon beside her was her Earl Dervish partner Chikorita.

"I didn't expect to meet you here!" Casey seemed to be in a good mood when he saw the three of them.

"We didn't expect that Casey still looks very energetic, and so does Chikorita." The eight people looked at Casey and responded in the same way.

I seem to be meeting old friends a lot lately, and I also met Akin and the others when I was in Goldenrod City.

whisper!!!

Chikorita also said hello to Ash and others, and Casey also asked at the same time.

"Ash, are you also going to attend the Bug Catching Conference?"

"I'm the only one participating." Ash simply responded.

"Is that so? Although it's not a formal competition, I still won't lose to you Ash." Casey clenched his fists and said with fighting spirit.

"Okay! Let's see who catches the more powerful Pokémon!"

Ash listened and responded at the same time. In fact, he was just having fun, but Casey seemed to be full of energy and did not dampen her interest.

Soon, Ash also signed up and got the qualification, and everyone quickly gathered at the entrance of the park.

Originally, people who were traveling with them could watch the game progress on the big screen outside, but there was no rule that people traveling with them could not enter.

Misty is no longer so afraid of Bug Type Pokémon, so she and Xiaogang still enter the park with Ash and Casey.

"Okay, thank you all Trainers for participating in this insect catching conference."

"The rules of the competition are that everyone can use twenty of these specially-made Park Balls, but at the final settlement, only one of them can be selected for scoring."

"The time is limited to one hour, then I announce that the game will begin now!!"

The organizer briefly explained the rules, and then everyone received their own special balls and entered the park. .
