Pokemon: Release? Nonexistent

Chapter 2026 Second Round of Review

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

Ash and May also returned to the lounge. When they came to the lounge, Ash also temporarily took back Milotic.

Then came the performance of the next contestants. Because in the anime, May forgot to sign up, so she didn't sign up at the last minute until just before the competition started.

So May was the last to appear, and now because she signed up early after coming to Slateport City, there are still many contestants to perform later.

Because the competition is about to enter the second stage, there is no time to go to the Pokémon Center for treatment or rest, so all the players who have finished their performances can take the time to rest in the lounge.

Ash and May chatted while watching the game. Another hour passed and the performance finally ended.

With Ash and others in front, there were some good performances in subsequent performances, but there were still very few who scored more than 25 points.

"Okay! So that's the explanation of the first review performance. Next, the system will select the eight contestants with the highest scores to enter the finals based on the scores of all contestants~!"

Next came the important stage. When May heard the sound, she immediately stood up nervously and unconsciously clenched her fists.

"Don't worry! It's no problem!"

Ash stood beside her and encouraged her. May's score was higher than in the original anime, and she had already entered the finals, let alone now.

"DEL!"

May nodded slightly, but her nervousness was still visible to the naked eye.

Drew came to the two of them at this time, and he didn't know when.

Soon, the big screen began to shine, and then eight avatars gradually appeared.

What comes into view at the beginning are three familiar snickers, namely Ash, Robert, and Drew. The avatars are obviously arranged according to scores.

Ash, Robert and Drew's scores are among the top three, so these three are sure to advance.

Then I looked back and found May's head. May was second in the second row.

"Ah! Phew..."

Seeing her profile picture, May was shocked at first, and then quickly showed a relaxed expression.

"Very good!"

May spoke excitedly, because she herself felt that her performance was not good, but she still successfully entered the second review.

"It's so surprising, but...

At this time, Drew next to him looked at this scene and spoke subconsciously.

"You want to say that it's all Beautifly's fault, right? But it doesn't matter.

May was in a good mood at this time. Even though she knew what Drew wanted to say, she didn't take it to heart.

And she also admitted that her performance was indeed not as good as Beautifly.

"Behave well next time!"

Ash also spoke at the same time. In fact, what worried May most was not the first round, but the second round.

Because May has too little fighting experience, the second round of review does not require the first round. This round is a one-on-one duel with live ammunition.

"Then let's start the second round of review, Contest Category!"

As the Host's voice sounded, the avatar on the big screen began to flash rapidly, and May became nervous again.

Soon, the Contest Category began and gradually settled down.

The eight people were divided into four groups. The first group was the other two contestants.

Then the first person to appear in the second group was Ash's avatar, and Rival was a Stephanie who looked about the same age.

The most important thing is the third group. The first one to appear is Drew's avatar, and the person opposite him is none other than May. Robert is in the last group.

"Ah!! Me... with Drew?!"

May was also stunned when she saw this scene. She didn't expect to meet Drew so soon.

"This combination is pretty good! It seems like your Contest will end here!"

Drew looked at this scene and chuckled.

"you..."

After listening to Drew's words, May was about to speak, but saw that Drew had turned around and left. May looked at Drew's leaving back and made a secret decision.

"I won't lose!"

May made a secret decision in her heart. Ash looked at this scene and felt a little helpless.

In this kind of battle, May is still very different from Drew. Although Drew is a stinker, he is not just a show-off.

…please give me flowers…0

May was destined to lose this game, but Ash didn't say much.

Because for May, this failure may be necessary. Now May, it cannot be said that she does not love Contest.

But all along, when participating in the Contest competition, May actually only wanted to stand out on her own, but did not realize that the most important thing in participating in the Contest competition was the cooperation between the Trainer and humans.

For example, at first, May was just thinking about "how Contest will appear.

And this failure made her realize this. The Contest is not just about looking good.

"Next, please take a break for the qualified players. The competition will start in thirty minutes. Those who have been eliminated should not be discouraged. The conference will still be held in other cities. Please keep up the good work!"

Host's voice sounded on the big screen, and Ash also glanced at May next to him.

"Don't think too much, just try your best to fight!"

Ash encouraged May to prepare her mentally!

"I see!"

Listening to Ash's words, May also nodded, and then waited for the game to start.

Thirty minutes passed quickly, and the second round of review soon began.

Ash and May also watched the first game. For May, it was just a matter of understanding the specific handicap situation.

Although the second round of the Contest is a battle, it is different from ordinary battles.

A normal battle is just about defeating Rival, but the Contest competition is all about RBI.

Each side has a value similar to a health bar. If it is hit, the value will begin to decrease. If the value reaches zero, the player will be eliminated.

How to play well and let Rival consume values ​​is a major focus of the second round review of the Contest.

Ash has known this for a long time, but this is the first time Xiaoyu has absorbed the eyelids.

"Next, we invite players Ash and Mina to appear!"

The review of the first game was over, and it was Ash's turn to appear. .
