Pokémon King of Bugs

The knockout round of the arena has officially ended. After the five players finished their city rankings in the evening, they all entered their information and Pokémon into the provincial competition system. The provincial competition will officially start in Hefang City five days later.

Because most of the contestants who advance have their Pokémon injured or even seriously injured, there will be five days of preparation time. It is not ruled out that some people advance easily. They can also use the competition period to improve their Pokémon by about one level and become more skilled. The speed will be improved a bit, but the combat power will not change too much.

There are a total of 64 people in the provincial competition. Hefang City has ten places, Lorraine City has five places, and other cities have as many as five and as few as one place. A total of 64 people have been selected for the competition.

In the group stage, 64 people were divided into four groups, 1v1, with one point for a win, zero points for a draw, and one point deducted for a loss. The points system determines the first and second place in the group to advance to the quarterfinals.

Starting from the group stage, there will be a live broadcast of the Junior Cup, both on TV and online, and there will be commentators to explain the game. However, the commentators in the group stage all understand it, and to be honest, it is not exciting.

Because of the special format of the Junior Cup, the Pokémon selection of the players in the group stage is very much tested. Everyone is relatively strong, so once the main pet is seriously injured in the group stage due to recklessness, other players will benefit even if they win.

The group stage is not a knockout but a points system, and there are two promotion places, so it is very maneuverable. For example, Tian Ji's horse racing and voluntarily admitting defeat are all effective means of retaining strength, so the interpretability is not strong. In the end, everyone was hiding their moves.

There will be a formal top-level commentator at the beginning of the quarter-finals, and each game will be explained wonderfully. Many exciting games in previous years are even recorded on video.Moreover, the winner will be interviewed by reporters. This is usually when the school behind the contestant attracts traffic.

The quarterfinals will pit the first of each group against the second of each group, and usher in a many-on-many challenge that is extremely challenging for young trainers, that is, 3v3. Each player has three opportunities to actively replace the Pokémon on the field. , the winner advances to the semi-finals.

The semi-finals are also 3v3, and the winner advances to the finals.

The winner of the final, 3v3, will win the Junior Cup trophy and receive generous official rewards from the league.

This year's championship reward is 100 million bonuses plus an outstanding Pokémon egg of your choice. You can choose a Pokémon with the same strength as Riolu. Oh, and there is also honor, which is something to show off at home. .

Open the champagne at halftime to assess the championship rewards.

To be honest, 100 million is not much at all to Ling Yun. His half-month salary is 100 million. He is the most willing to spend money on Pokémon. 100 million will probably be spent in half a day in his hands.

The selection of excellent Pokémon is said to be optional, but in fact there are restrictions. After all, the Chinese Alliance has to have the goods, such as exotic beasts and fantasy beasts such as Poison Babies. Although the strength is not as strong as Riolu, The Alliance is also unlikely to offer these as rewards.

Ling Yun's goal is a Pokémon that can make up for the shortcomings of his own lineup, an insect type that is not afraid of fire, such as the fire-type fire-eating spider, which can absorb fire-type damage to strengthen itself, or a cowardly insect like a dripping spider. All water-type Pokémon can be considered.

According to competition data records, the five players from Lorraine who entered the provincial competition are ranked as follows.

No. [-] seed in Lorraine City: Lingyun

Pokémon: (Levels are clearer from the perspective of the protagonist)

Level 36 Giant Pincer Mantis

Level 26 (upgraded one level during the game) Big Needle Bee

Level 21 Zoroa

No. [-] seed in Lorraine: Xiao Ge

Pokémon: Level 29 Riolu, Level 23 Abby, Level 22 Tadpole

Lorraine City No. [-] seed: Long Qiu

Pokémon: Level 28 Fire Dinosaur, Level 21 Gyarados, Level 23 Applesaurus

Lorraine City No. [-] seed: Lin Huahua

Pokémon: Level 28 Poison Rose, Level 24 Beautiful Flower, Level 23 Muscat

Lorraine City No. [-] seed: Liu Xiaoxiao

Pokémon: Level 25 Magnemite, Level 21 Sheep, Level 16 Positive Tap, Level 16 Negative Tap

When the evening competition and information entry are over, the mayor's secretary is taking everyone to a super luxurious five-star hotel for dinner. Now everyone is sitting in an extra-long car.

Lin Huahua greeted the four junior students very friendly. She was not as serious as expected, and she was an amiable senior student.

"Hey, Dad, I advanced in the competition and will compete in the provincial competition in five days. Well, I won't be back for dinner. Well, well, okay, bye."

Sitting in the car, Ling Yun was on the phone with his father, sharing the joy.

The mayor's secretary chatted with them while driving, saying that the mayor fully supported the five players and that the city could provide any training venues and training props needed during the five-day adjustment period free of charge.

This actually gave Ling Yun some ideas. He couldn't waste five days. He also had training goals that he hoped to achieve a breakthrough in a short period of time.

That is to enable Archer's wings to fly.

Even the most basic low-altitude flight can increase Archer's dodge space in battle and improve the error tolerance rate during combat.

After nearly two months of training, Archer's wings have basically adapted to his own weight and can basically float in place at low altitude. However, it is precisely at this time that the wing's load-bearing capacity improves most slowly.

Progress will be greater when you are under pressure. Once you have adapted to your own weight, if you want to quickly stimulate the growth of strength, you have to add weight, that is, add weight to yourself to exercise the load-bearing capacity of the wings.

Having said that, randomly adding weight will strain the wings but the gain outweighs the gain. At this time, you need to use special Pokémon training equipment. Normally, you need to spend money to buy suitable equipment, but since the secretary said that the equipment is provided free of charge, then Ling Yun won't be polite either.

In these five days, Xiao Huan's high-speed stars and Ah Chong's training will follow the same steps as before, and he will focus on helping Ah Che train its wings and help it regain its ability to fly as soon as possible.

Hefang City, Fangyuan Province

The provincial competition quotas in Hefang City have also been officially announced, with No. [-] seed Shi Shan, No. [-] seed Liu Xue, No. [-] seed Yu Mo, No. [-] seed Dugu...

In a Pokémon club in the city, Shishan sat on the table with his legs crossed and glanced at the information sheet on his phone. The message on it told him to be careful of the person in the information sheet.

"Lorraine City? Is his name Ling Yun? His main pet is a high-level giant claw mantis. Hmm... It's a bit interesting. I just don't know how much strength he can exert to the giant claw mantis. It's rare to have an opponent that interests me. I hope you don't have one." How long will it take for my big steel snake to bite you into pieces?"

"You don't need to take action, we will eliminate them. People in Lorraine are not like that every year." Yu Mo said huddled in the corner wearing a raincoat. He was wearing a raincoat hat even though he was indoors.

"Brother Shan, I finally met a stronger insect, so I'll leave Ling Yun to me~" Liu Xue, who was wearing a white dress, chuckled.

"You'd better be careful, I'm afraid you're not good enough for others." Dugu, wearing a purple headscarf, sent the last billiard ball into the table hole with one stroke.

"Giggle~~My Pokémon is not a poison type, Du Gu, don't hit others just because you can't play with them~~" Liu Xue said with a nonchalant smile.

"I'm just reminding you." Du Gu packed the table silently.

"Okay, stop arguing. If you can get the number one seed for an insect trainer, there is no need to take that player from Lorraine City too seriously. Our mission is to recruit the top three. During the competition, you can fight fiercely in front of others. It's never too late!" Shishan silently raised the cup in his hand, as if he had seen the moment when he was holding the cup.
