Pokémon: Yunxiao

As usual, Yun Xiao likes to check the opponent's information before the game. As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.

There are as many as sixty-four teams participating in the competition this time. If Yun Xiao wants to win the championship, he must defeat six groups of players.

The data shows that the strongest team is the Squirtle Corps led by Junsha. As local firefighters in Kanto, the Squirtle Corps is extremely active and can easily win the championship every time they participate in a fire-fighting conference.

The second seed is a Squirtle army. Although they are the evolved form of Squirtle, they are slightly inferior in terms of coordination.

As for the other teams, they seemed to be some temporary teams that were put together to make up the numbers, so Yun Xiao simply chose to ignore them. As long as they didn't encounter the Squirtle Army or the Card Squirtle Army so early in the game, they would undoubtedly advance to the semi-finals.

"Okay, I'm determined to get the elf food this time! Oops..."

Yun Xiao was so excited that his chair flipped over and he fell headfirst.

……

On the second day, a large crowd of spectators gathered at the venue of the fire-fighting competition. Some participating trainers had already displayed their teams and kept showing off their strength to the audience around them.

Although these Pokémon are powerful, in Yun Xiao's opinion, the Pokémon of these trainers are really weak. These guys are generally between the novice level and the elementary level. Yun Xiao even feels that he has come to the Novice Village to bully the weak. It would be better to die than to lose to such an opponent.

The strongest teams were, just as Yun Xiao had expected, the Squirtle Army and the Squirtle Army.

The Squirtle leader of the Squirtle Army who is wearing prismatic sunglasses has the powerful strength of a gym owner, while the other Squirrels are slightly weaker, with only beginner-level strength. It is obvious that Junsha did not train these little guys well, and was only concerned with the fire-fighting operation.

The Stottle leader of the Stottle Corps is at the gym owner level, and the rest have intermediate-level strength.

The Squirtle Army was able to defeat the stronger Squirtle Army by using the weak to defeat the strong, perhaps because of teamwork.

Today, the Squirtle Corps did not wear the black shirts, but changed into a set of fire-fighting tights. Yun Xiao recognized the Squirtle he met yesterday at a glance.

It was wearing a yellow fire suit, the smallest among the Squirtles, and had a rounder face. It followed the Squirtles and looked around curiously until it saw Yun Xiao in the crowd, and then it took off its round sunglasses.

"Jenny Jenny~"

Squirtle ran towards Yun Xiao with his short legs, his eyes shining.

"Wait, where are you going, Squirtle?"

When Junsha saw that Squirtle had fallen behind, she quickly led the Squirtle Army to chase after it.

"Hmm? It's you, little guy. What's wrong?"

Yun Xiao naturally saw Squirtle running towards him. He squatted down and looked at the excited Squirtle and asked.

"Jenny Jenny~"

Squirtle took out an apple from his clothes and handed it to Yun Xiao.

"For me?"

Looking at the apple in his hand, Yun Xiao asked curiously, only to see Squirtle nodded quickly.

"Thank you, Squirtle. Mmm... so sweet!"

Yun Xiao rubbed Squirtle's little bald head and then ate the apple that Squirtle brought to him in big mouthfuls in front of Squirtle.

"Squirtle, why are you here? Hey, are you the champion of the Caiyou Conference?"

After Junsha chased after him, she first looked at Squirtle helplessly, and then recognized Yun Xiaolai in front of her at a glance.

Because Leader Squirtle is Ash's Pokémon, they will pay attention to every conference where Ash is present and cheer for him.

"Jenny Jenny~"

The Squirtle wearing prismatic sunglasses also recognized Yun Xiao and immediately wanted to fight Yun Xiao.

"Jenny~"

Now it was the turn of Squirtle, who had a good relationship with Yun Xiao, to be in trouble. After all, it came here to find Yun Xiao just to repay Yun Xiao for giving it an apple yesterday.

"Who is this child?"

Yun Xiao looked at the Squirtle leader wearing prismatic sunglasses. It seemed that he had never dealt with this Squirtle leader before?

"Its trainer is the same as you, and is also a participant in the Saiyou Conference, but unfortunately his trainer was eliminated in the quarterfinals. Its trainer's name is Xiaozhi."

Junsha also solemnly introduced the identity of the Squirtle leader to Yun Xiao.

"Ash's!? Ahem, that's a coincidence. Hello, let me introduce myself. I'm Yun Xiao from Orange City in the Hoenn region, and I'm also Ash's travel partner."

Yun Xiao introduced himself to Junsha, and when he mentioned his travel companions, he did not forget to glance at the leader of the Squirtle.

"Johnny? Johnny Johnny~"

Upon hearing that it was Xiaozhi's travel partner, Squirtle was stunned at first, then excitedly patted Yun Xiao's trouser legs with his little hands, acting like a gangster leader.

"Then it really is fate, where's Xiaozhi?"

Junsha also showed a look of joy, and then looked around for Xiaozhi, and the leader Squirtle did the same.

"Unfortunately, he is in Kanto now, and I am the only one coming to the Orange Islands to participate in the Orange Alliance."

Yun Xiao said this regretfully, and then the Squirtle leader lowered his head in disappointment.

"This kid has been looking forward to seeing Xiaozhi again, and hopes to be able to help Xiaozhi in the league meeting. So every day he trains very hard and strives to improve his strength, so that he can stand up when Xiaozhi needs him."

Junsha felt a little bit reluctant when looking at the lost Squirtle Leader. If she had not organized the Squirtle Fire Brigade without authorization, the Squirtle Leader might not have had to part with Xiaozhi.

"Jenny Jenny~"

Little Squirtle and the other Squirtle came to comfort their leader. The Squirtle leader only behaved like this when they encountered something wrong with Satoshi.

"Contestants of the fire-fighting competition, please gather in front of the stage. The competition is about to begin."

Just when Yun Xiao was about to say something, the host's voice came from the radio. Junsha and Yun Xiao were in different queues, so they had to separate temporarily.

"Thank you for buying apples for Squirtle yesterday. The little guy has always remembered it."

Junsha smiled gently at Yun Xiao, then led the Squirtle Army towards her own position. The Squirtle leader also perked up again, as the game was about to begin, and he had to give it his all.

"Jenny Jenny~"

When little Squirtle left, he waved to Yun Xiao quickly, and then followed the Squirtle Army happily.

After checking the number plate on his chest, Yun Xiao found his position and waited for the competition to begin.
