He knows Pokémon better than me

Quartz League sub-field.

Good morning, audience friends in front of the TV~ Today is the first day of our Quartz Conference finalists~~

At the entrance of a crowd, a capable woman with long red hair tied into a big broom ponytail is holding a microphone and introducing something to the camera.

And in front of her was a blue-haired man, with short hair tied into a literary-style braid, wearing a baseball cap, sunglasses, and a camera on his shoulder.

Beside the two of them stood an extremely short yellow villain dressed as a director.

The three are the three members of the Rockets who have not played for a long time, Musashi, Kojiro, and Meow.

Hmph, our plan to pretend to be a reporter this time can be said to be perfect, meow!

Director Miaomiao sneered secretly, looking at the trainers who came and went around, her cat's face was gloomy, like watching big fish about to go online.

Hey, as expected of Meow Meow!

After a period of filming ended, Kojiro also came over to pat Meow Meow's flattery.

That's right, there must be many famous scouts at this conference. Seeing me, a female reporter with online looks and acting skills, will definitely let me step into the show business circle!

Musashi also came over and posed for the two of them.

Kojiro \u0026 Meow: ?

Idiot Musashi, meow! Our plan this time is to use our identity as a reporter to investigate powerful trainers and their Pokémon, and then find a chance to snatch them all!

Meow meow growled softly.

It wanted to give Musashi a blow, but right now Musashi's face was an excellent weapon, and it couldn't be destroyed for the time being, it was just a bergamot.

In other words, it has already drawn tic-tac-toe on the latter's face.

But judging by Musashi's nympho expression, he probably put his goal of debut in the first place, and if he has time, maybe he will help them steal some rare Pokémon.

...

Damn!

Kojiro suddenly noticed something, frowned and quickly pulled Musashi away, trying to turn around, but the latter blocked Kojiro's movements, and said nonchalantly:

What are you doing! You can't just interrupt a big star's pose!

After the words fell, Xiaozhi and his party had already walked in front of Musashi, leaned very close, and looked at the latter's face curiously.

Musashi:!

danger!

Sweat dripped from the faces of the three of them, and they smiled awkwardly.

I'm careless, forget that the little ghosts are also contestants!

What should I do, do you want to fast-forward directly to pnb Explosives?

No, meow, there are too many masters around, just run away meow...

The faces of the three of them kept changing, their eyeballs twirled for a while, and they communicated silently through the air in a very tacit understanding.

...

Are you from the TV station...?

After Xiaozhi was puzzled, he suddenly turned his head to face the camera on Kojiro's shoulder, showing a big smiling face, and waving excitedly.

Hey, hey, mom, can you see me!? I'm Xiaozhi!

Although the three of them basically didn't pretend much, he just didn't recognize the Rockets, he just felt a little familiar.

In the same way, Xiaogang and Xiaoxia didn't recognize her either, they were both old and face-blind.

Pickup...

Pikachu on Xiaozhi's shoulder shook his ears and raised his head. The smells of the three people in front of him were somewhat familiar...

It's the smell of miscellaneous fish.

Pickup!

Immediately, Pikachu lowered his head again, losing interest in the three of them. He had killed too many miscellaneous fish in seconds, how could he remember them all?

The hard disk space in the head of small rodent Pokémon is actually very small.

Threesome: ?

Soon, the three of Xiaozhi walked towards the Pokémon Center, leaving only the Rockets trio with a confused look on their faces.

...

Cheer up, meow! Collect information about powerful trainers and Pokémon, meow!

Miaomiao, the most reliable of the three, reacted the fastest and reminded loudly, which immediately cheered up the two of them, looking around to find the target.

Since the little devils can't find their seamless disguise, it means that they can do whatever they want now!

twitter...

Humph haha...

After some exploration, the trio noticed a crowd gathered somewhere, chattering and cheering, as if some big star had appeared, and hurriedly leaned forward curiously.

Pushing aside the crowd, one can see a tall and enchanting man in the center. His long blue hair is straight and long, and there is a bit of frivolity on his feminine face. A bobo or a sparrow sprang out, and everyone cheered.

A comedian?

magician?

Putting their ears up, the three of them realized that the man with long blue hair was also a contestant in this conference. He seemed to be a contestant in some kind of performance competition before, and he had a lot of popularity.

Looks like a big fish!

Musashi quickly put on a professional smirk, and went up to meet him, trying to secretly inquire about the Pokémon information carried by the latter.

Unexpectedly, before they could speak, the green-haired man had already spoken first, with haughty eyes.

Hello? Which TV station are you from?

Oh, we are reporters from Rocket TV~

Musashi is kind and kind, with a smile on his face.

Rocket TV is a small local satellite TV under the Rockets, and this time it just happened to be used.

Rocket TV? Local? Never heard of it.

The blue-haired man flicked his hands, and only looked at the three of them out of the corner of his eye, as if looking at three miscellaneous fish.

I only accept TV interviews at the national level, so small roles like you don't matter.

After finishing speaking, the green-haired man moved his position with a large group of fans, and continued to show fancy magic tricks in another place, ignoring the faces of the three of them at all.

You boy, I have a bad temper!!

Seeing that Musashi was about to explode and beat up the arrogant man, Kojiro and Miaomiao hurriedly dragged her to the other side with all their might, and continued to comfort her.

Calm down, Musashi!

Don't ruin our big plans because of a small role!

At this moment, the focus of the Rockets' work is not on the Kanto area, and even Boss Sakagi is on a business trip to the Johto area.

But if they can do good performance in the Kanto region at this juncture, they will definitely be appreciated by Boss Sakagi!

Hmph! I hope that kind of miscellaneous fish will go out in the first round!

In the end, Musashi could only curse bitterly.

...

...

Pokémon Center.

Xiaogang is introducing the competition system of this competition to everyone.

Little Zhi, listen carefully, the rules of this conference are quite curious.

There are a total of more than 200 contestants in this Quartz Conference, and the process of the competition can be roughly divided into two stages: finalists and knockouts.

The first stage of the finalist competition was held in four surrounding sub-venues. On average, each person had to fight 4 times. After 4 rounds of fighting, nearly all the players were wiped out, and only 16 people remained after more than 200 players.

Then the battlefield will be transferred to the main arena, and these 16 players will enter the second stage of the conference - the knockout round.

The most curious thing is that the four battles in the first stage are all in the format of losing once and being eliminated...

Xiao Gang frowned deeply.

It is said that it is a finalist, but in fact it is a knockout round from the beginning.

Losing a game means the end of the journey, and the competition system is very unscientific.

Switching to the rules of other regions, the first stage should actually be divided into group points system, and whether they are eligible to enter the top 16 is judged through multiple rounds of victory or defeat, rather than such a game to determine the outcome.

What if the runner-up meets the champion in the first fight?

Straight out?

It can be said that with this competition system, except for the only champion who has no water, any other rankings are metaphysics.

As for why not...

Without him, the old traditions of the ancestors just don't change.
