[Pokemon] Late Autumn

The soundproofing effect of the cruise ship was so good that when she woke up and looked out the window, she saw that the sunset was about to set, and the scenery of the sea was slowly receding. The waves on both sides hit the hull, but she didn't feel any Shaking feeling.

It was indeed very stable, but...she fell asleep for several hours without realizing it?

Late Qiu was a little dazed after waking up. He rubbed his eyes and saw that Young Tooth Dragon and Delubi had both woken up. Only then did he realize that they had missed lunch and it was now time to have lunch.

Her stomach also growled, making Shen Qiu unable to help but blush slightly.

"Ahem... let's go Dairubi, let's go out to eat something," she coughed covertly, turned her head to look at Dairubi, and then looked at the Young Tooth Dragon with a somewhat embarrassed tone, "Young Tooth Dragon... ...You should stay in the Poké Ball for now, I'm afraid it might be dangerous outside."

Young Tooth Dragon is actually not that rare of elves. It can be said to be relatively common in the Hometown of Dragons. But it's completely different outside. Not only is it very rare, but its distinctive color is likely to attract some bad guys with impure motives to stare at it.

Thinking of this, seeing the unwilling look on the little toothed dragon's face, Shenqiu had no choice but to persuade him again: "It's temporary. I will let you out when we get to the restaurant. The young toothed dragon will be obedient. Your Existence is so rare.”

After hearing this, the young tooth dragon looked at Dairubi with some pride, and found that the other person's face was full of ridicule, and instantly turned his head away from looking at Dairubi. He looked at Shenqiu again with worry written all over his face, and finally nodded reluctantly.

Late Qiu smiled apologetically, knowing that the baby tooth dragon was not willing to stay in the elf ball when it was just born, but for its safety, he still took an empty elf ball from his waist and took the baby tooth dragon back.

The empty elf ball shook symbolically, then stopped. Dairubi stared at the elf ball in Shen Qiu's hand, raised his head and roared softly, then lowered his head and gently pushed it against Shen Qiu. legs.

"Okay, go eat now, don't rush me, Darubi." Late Qiu smiled and put the elf ball back on his waist, and took Darubi to the restaurant to get something to eat.

Shenqiu didn't know where the restaurant was, so she had to walk out of the guest room area first. When she came to the lobby, she realized that there were more people on the ship than she thought.

There were people with elves everywhere, some were playing with their elves, and some were feeding them. Late Qiu looked around and finally found someone who looked like a waiter.

Shen Qiu immediately stepped forward and asked, "I'm sorry to disturb you. Do you know how to get to the restaurant?"

The waiter turned his head and looked at a delicate-looking girl carrying a tall and fierce-looking Delubi.

"You have done a good job in raising Dairubi..." He couldn't help but look at Dairubi first and praised him, then looked at Shenqiu and nodded sheepishly, "I'm sorry for being rude. The restaurant is in that direction. .”

Shen Qiu was about to thank him for his guidance, but was interrupted by his words. The waiter scratched his head, thought for a while and then told Shen Qiu: "Actually, our seats are almost full. It's the dining peak now. I'm afraid you won't have a place to eat if you go there now. But we have special rules here. If you play against each other, as long as you win three games in a row, you can get an empty seat that will not be disturbed by others."

An empty seat without being disturbed by others!

Late Qiu was shocked at the special rules on the cruise ship, but since she and Derubi were both very hungry now, she had no choice but to abide by such special rules during the peak period.

"Excuse me, what kind of battle is it?" Shen Qiu asked curiously and doubtfully.

"The format of the competition is doubles. You must choose your teammates before the game. During the game, the elf cannot be replaced unless the elf loses the ability to fight. In each round, only one of the two teammates has a chance to change the elf," the waiter said. She seemed to really want to fight, so she explained with a smile, and then he pointed in the direction of the battle field, "Go up from that staircase, which is the battle field and preparation place. As long as you win three rounds in a row, you and your teammates will win." Will get empty seats.”

oh? Such rules are really strange.

Shenqiu raised her eyebrows, and was very interested in this rule that she had never seen before. This could be regarded as a preparation for entering the Fengyuan region, so she should practice her skills first.

"Thank you very much for the reminder." Shen Qiu nodded understandingly and bowed lightly.

She looked at Delubi with a smile. They didn't say anything, but she saw the same fighting spirit and confidence in the intersecting eyes of her and Delubi.

Shenqiu believes that Dairubi can bring her victory; and Dairubi also firmly believes that Shenqiu's command can make it win three consecutive rounds until the final victory.

But first, they need a teammate.

Late Qiu looked around, trying to find people who were also looking for teammates, but looking around, they either looked like lovers at first glance, or they were two people who had already formed a team and were getting to know each other. Shenqiu sighed helplessly when she saw that she was the only one around.

But just as she was about to look elsewhere, a very small female voice suddenly came from behind her: "Please...are you alone? Can you team up with me...?"

It is simply the sound of heaven!

Shen Qiu turned around and saw a girl who was lower than her and looked very shy. She lowered her head and did not dare to look directly at her, but her slightly trembling eyelashes revealed her inner nervousness and confusion.

Shen Qiu didn't care so much, and stretched out his hand with a friendly smile: "Of course. I am Shen Qiu, and I will be your teammate for the time being."

"Hello...I...I'm Yuyi, please give me some advice." The girl carefully raised her head and looked at Shenqiu, then lowered her head with a blushing face, gently held Shenqiu's extended hand, and whispered.

She actually observed Shen Qiu for a long time and found that the opponent's Dairubi was well cultivated, and as a fire element, it was indeed helpful to her, so she planned to ask this girl who seemed to be looking for teammates.

"Well," Miqiu smiled and nodded, then looked around the girl and asked with some confusion, "So Yui, who is your elf?"

"Ah! Hug... I'm sorry, I forgot..." The girl suddenly blushed, smiled sheepishly, then took out an elf ball from her waist and threw it gently, "Come out, bay leaf !”

A flash of white light flashed, and a very energetic bay leaf appeared next to Yuyi. It looked at Qiu Qiu and Dairubi curiously, and then nuzzled Yuyi, looking very affectionate.

In late autumn, under the influence of Calamus, an excellent breeder, she also began to pay attention to the level of elf cultivation. She looked at Bayleaf's coat color and mental state, and nodded silently in her heart.

Bayleaf, as the evolved form of Chrysanthemum Leaf, one of the three novice elves in the Johto area, seems to have been cultivated quite well by the opponent.

"Then, I'm here with Dai Rubi." Shenqiu pointed at Dai Rubi beside her and said gently. She couldn't help but soften her voice a lot, for fear of scaring the very shy girl in front of her. " Then let’s sign up first. Happy cooperation, Yui.”

Yuyi nodded without saying anything, took back the bay leaf, followed Shen Qiu, and the two of them headed to the registration place side by side.

Without any trouble, the two signed up smoothly, and then received their number plates with the gentle voice of the front desk staff.

It's number 65. Holding the number plate in her hand, Shenqiu couldn't help but think to herself, she didn't expect so many people to compete in this doubles match.

Yuyi noticed that Miqiu's expression was a little surprised. After hesitating for a moment, she still explained in a low voice: "Well... doubles are very popular in the Hoenn area, so there will be more people..."

Late Qiu looked at Yuyi in surprise.

Yuyi shyly avoided her gaze in the late autumn, "My home is in Hoenen Kaina City. This time I came to Feiyun City because I was entrusted with some things by my family, so..." You will know more. .

Unexpectedly, Yui, who holds the original spirit of Johto, lives in Kaina City?

After all, it was someone's personal privacy. Shen Qiu didn't ask any questions, just smiled and nodded: "I see. I'm still wondering why there are so many people. Thank you for reminding me, Yuyi."

So why are doubles matches so popular in the Hoenn region? Miu Qiu thought silently as she and Yui walked to the waiting area. It seemed that she should think carefully about some special playing methods required for doubles battles... Maybe she would need to ask Mr. Shaka for advice if she had the opportunity.

And doubles is not like singles. Singles only requires the trainer to consider his own and the opponent's elves, but doubles has more influencing factors, including teammates' elves, mutual cooperation, and the choice of the two opponents, etc., all of which require Taking comprehensive considerations into account, trainers can conduct real-time analysis based on the status of teammates and opponents and issue the most accurate orders.

If it is Bay Leaf, it is indeed a good auxiliary position for the grass type, and the output is also good. However, because it is very afraid of fire type moves, it needs some protection from Dai Rubi. In the same way, Dai Rubi also Some attributes such as water, ground, and rocks are at a disadvantage and require assistance from Bay Leaf... At this time, it depends on the cooperation of the two.

Her Dairubi is of the fire type, and Bayleaf is of the grass type. If there is any coordination... it will have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.

Are there any moves that are good for both fire and grass attributes?

Late Qiu thought about it seriously.

Late Qiu's eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at Yuyi: "Yuyi, will your bay leaves clear up?"

She already had an idea.

If Bayleaf can use Clear Sky, her Dairubi's fire-based moves will also be enhanced on sunny days, and the threat of water-based moves will also be reduced...as long as the opponent does not change the weather.

In this case, as long as the opponent is not also a grass or fire type, then sunny weather is extremely beneficial to them.

Yuyi was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly with a red face, and responded in a very small voice, "Yes... yes."

Yui didn't quite understand why Miu Qiu asked this at first, but when she saw Dairubi beside her, she thought about it and understood what Miu Qiu meant. After all, she has lived in Fengyuan for more than ten years, where doubles battles are very popular, so she still knows this basic knowledge.

Sunny Day means that after the elves use Clear Sky, or after the elves with sunny weather characteristics (also translated as drought or sunshine) enter the field, the weather on the field will change. On a sunny day, fire-type moves are more powerful and water-type moves are less powerful. At the same time, sunlight flames can be fired directly without charging, and photosynthesis will restore more physical strength.

For grass or fire elves, it is a perfect coordination skill to kill two birds with one stone.

Shenqiu curled her lips, her tone was calm, but she could not hide her expectation for the battle: "Well Yui, this is our last resort. We must win the final victory!"

Yui couldn't help but be affected by her tone, and smiled slightly and nodded.

However, it was not their turn soon, although she felt that she and Yui had been waiting in the waiting hall for a long time... Miqiu sighed as she watched the battle on the field being broadcast live on the screen.

Even her stomach made a growling sound.

So hungry... Late Qiu held his stomach and sighed.

It wasn't their turn yet, and she didn't know how long she would have to wait. She wanted to eat very much now.

"Well...if you don't mind...please try this." At this time, Yuyi's voice sounded in her ears.

Angel!

Miqiu's eyes widened and she stared blankly as Yuyi handed her a small piece of snack that looked very delicious.

"Thank you so much Yuyi, then I'm welcome!" Shen Qiu didn't refuse, she smiled and took the snack Yuyi handed her with both hands, then she broke off a small piece and put it to Dairubi's mouth, "You too Come and taste some, Darubi."

Delubi swallowed it in one gulp, narrowed his eyes, and then licked the crumbs stuck to Late Qiu's hand, looking very docile.

Yuyi couldn't help but look at Delubi with some surprise, as if she didn't expect that the other person was completely different from the very ferocious and cruel looking person.

Shenqiu saw the surprise in Yuyi's eyes and explained with a smile: "Don't be afraid of Dairubi's fierce appearance. In fact, this guy is very gentle at heart."

Because before late autumn, I did find that when they walked over, Yuyi was a little bit avoiding Darubi. Darubi was on her right and Yuyi was walking on her left, and she couldn't help but move further away when Darubi looked over.

Although she could understand Yuyi's thoughts, she still felt that it would be better for Yuyi to let down her guard. Late Qiu smiled and touched Delubi's head.

"I...I know," Yui nodded slightly. She looked at Darubi with a somewhat embarrassed tone, "Hug...Sorry, Darubi."

Delubi looked at Yuyi for a while, and when Late Qiu looked at it, it nodded and growled lowly.

If it weren't for Shen Qiu, he wouldn't bother to agree with other trainers... Dairubi couldn't help but squint his eyes, looking at the very shy girl next to Shen Qiu, and slowly exhaled from his nose.

Forget it, for the sake of late autumn, let's just treat him as a partner that I can identify with for the time being.

Delubi looked at Yui, then at the crowd and elves around him, his eyes heavy.

After a long time, Miqiu and Yuyi finally saw their number plates on the screen. They looked at each other with a smile and walked towards the entrance.

The first doubles match in late autumn is about to begin...!
