Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 454 I just became the league champion and then I started playing against the league?

Three days later, at the Manaro Arena.

The long-awaited final has finally arrived. On the field, Mizuki and Gladio stand on opposite sides of the arena.

The atmosphere in the arena was extremely lively, and it was mostly filled with locals from Alola.

This was, after all, the first regional tournament in the Alola region, and its popularity in Alola was unprecedented.

On the high platform, Lusamine arrived in person, and the four Heavenly Kings, including Hala, were also present.

The referee entered the arena, announced the rules of the match, and then left.

"Lillie's brother, I'm really looking forward to this battle. I hope you won't disappoint me."

Mizuki's lips slowly curled into a smile as she enlarged the Poké Ball in her hand, challenging Gladion.

"You're no different. Even if you're close to Lord Mammon, I won't show you any mercy."

Gladgio said calmly, his expression remaining as composed and indifferent as ever.

"Ha~ That would be perfect."

Meiyue's smile widened as she glanced at the big screen. The random order of who goes first had been determined, and she was going first.

"Alright, let's enjoy this delightful battle!"

"Blazing Roaring Tiger!"

With Mizuki's loud shout, the Poké Ball was thrown high into the air, and a white light landed in front of Mizuki.

With a low growl, the Blazing Roaring Tiger slowly straightened up, its ferocious gaze inspiring fear.

Her starting lineup remains unchanged: the Blazing Roar Tiger.

"It really is Incineroar, Lucario!"

Gladion was not surprised at all and decisively released his first Pokémon.

The handsome and aloof Lucario landed in front of Gladio.

Mizuki's starting lineup is well-known; it has always been Blazing Roaring Tiger, without any change.

Lucario with the Psychic ability is immune to Intimidate!
"It seems they did some special research, using Lucario to minimize Incineroar's attack reduction effect."

Mammon chuckled. Pokémon with the Psychic ability are immune to Intimidate, which at least ensures that Mizuki's combo won't be fully utilized.

Otherwise, first they threaten you, then they launch a surprise attack with a high-five and throw out some harsh words; that kind of weakening is just too ruthless.

"But tactical application alone is not enough for offense and defense; we must also see how the battle unfolds."

That's right, while using Lucario with the Psychic ability to deal with Incineroar is correct, it's worth noting that Lucario and Incineroar are mutually super effective against each other.

Anyone who has watched Mizuki's battles knows that although the Blazing Roaring Tiger is her first choice, Mizuki initially uses it to weaken her opponents.

"Is it alright for Uncle to come here to watch the match?"

Cattleya nodded, then looked at Sakaki, who was wearing a top hat, standing to the side.

That's right, Giovanni came to Alola specifically to watch the match, as he had promised Mizuki.

Lillie sat upright beside Mammon, feeling rather nervous, for this was Mammon's father.

This is considered meeting the parents!

"Taking a day off is fine, and the Kanto Alliance doesn't have many affairs to attend to right now after the Quartz Conference."

Sakaki replied with a faint smile, adjusting the brim of his top hat.

"Besides, with Hupa around, it's very convenient for me to come and go."

That's right, Mammon specifically asked Hoopa to use the spatial ring to bring Giovanni over, otherwise, taking a plane would have been too troublesome.

Giovanni had also done some simple disguise, so not many people in Alola could recognize him.

Besides, it doesn't matter even if he gets caught. Mizuki used to be his dojo apprentice, so the League won't have much to say about that.

"That's good."

Gadriya nodded. The spatial golden ring used to punish Hoopa was truly outstanding in its functionality; spatial distance seemed to have no meaning whatsoever.

The battle on the field continues.

"Mizuki is a monster. Her strength is probably no less than Daigo's and the others."

Watching Mizuki's Tapu Koko defeat Gladion's Zoroark on the field, Giovanni couldn't help but chuckle.

Because he served as reinforcements twice this year, Giovanni has a very good relationship with Daigo and the others, so he is aware of their strength.

"It's no worse than you were last year, Mammon."

"How do you compare to the trainers in Kanto, Uncle?"

Lillie mustered her courage and curiously struck up a conversation with Sakaki. After all, even an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her in-laws eventually, and besides, she wasn't ugly at all.

"There are too many talented newcomers in Kanto this year, but Red and the others... should still be no match for Mizuki."

Sakaki glanced at Lillie, his gaze still gentle and friendly, and after a moment's thought, replied as follows.

The number of 'monsters' in Kanto this year is truly more than he imagined.

And even Sakaki didn't expect that Gin wouldn't even make it to the finals...

If it weren't for the good luck of being matched with a random person in the quarterfinals, it would have been uncertain whether we could have made it to the semifinals.

However, in Sakaki's opinion, Akane and the others are still not as good as Mizuki.

After all, Mizuki is not only exceptionally talented, but also has the resources of Mammon, making her team very strong. Moreover, she is being nurtured by local Alola people like Kukui.

Sakaki and the others chatted while watching the match, and the result was as expected.

Despite Gladion's best efforts, he ultimately could not overcome Mizuki, the Demon Lord of Alola.

The final score was 2:6. Even with his best efforts, Gladio only managed to defeat two of Mizuki's main players.

Mizuki successfully won the championship of the Manalo Grand Prix.

The entire audience was chanting Mizuki's name, and Mizuki showed no intention of resting and continued the Four Heavenly Kings challenge.

Under the excited and enthusiastic gazes of the audience.

Hara, Liz, Acerola, and Kashiri—the Alola Elite Four were defeated one after another by Mizuki.

Mizuki became the brightest star in the Alola region!
"Everyone, cheer! Our first Alola Elite Four Champion has been born!" On the high platform, Lusamine raised Mizuki's arm, and her high-pitched yet magnetic voice resounded throughout the Manaro Stadium through the microphone.

Yes, this day is destined to be recorded in the annals of Alora.

"Woo~!!"

"Mizuki! Mizuki! Mizuki!!"

The entire audience was chanting the name, and the sound waves soared into the sky.

Feeling the excitement, admiration, and shouts of the audience, Mizuki also clearly felt her blood boiling at that moment.

She likes it! She really enjoys it!
Indeed, isn't this the very purpose of becoming a champion?

Shining brightly, standing atop Alola!
She achieved her initial goal when she embarked on her journey, and now she is the strongest person in the land of Alola.

Champion Mizuki!

However, her life was not over yet.

Arola has memorized her name, and now she's going to make her name resound all over the world!

This day in Alora is destined to be a day of unbridled revelry.

The same applies to all four islands; the birth of a champion is ultimately of paramount importance to the Alola region.

It was evening by the time they arrived at Lusamine's mansion in Ether Paradise.

"Congratulations on becoming the Alola Champion, Mizuki."

Sakaki was clearly in a good mood as well, and raised his glass to congratulate Mizuki.

"Hehe~ I also have to thank Uncle for his guidance back then."

Mizuki beamed, picked up the glass filled with juice with both hands, and clinked it against Sakaki Kyō's.

"So my uncle also deserves some credit for my success today."

"Hehe~ It's been a year, and you've gotten even better at talking."

Sakaki smiled wryly.

Amidst the clinking of glasses and the exchange of toasts, the atmosphere at the dinner party was excellent.

"By the way, Mammon, did you come up with the idea for the World Championships?"

"That's right, it seems that President Loz has already applied?"

"Yes, a few days ago, Loz submitted a complete project proposal. I happened to be discussing some things with Damaranchi at the time, so I learned about it."

Sakaki took a sip of tea.

What are Dama Lanqi's thoughts?

“Of course I agree.” Sakaki smiled faintly: “The World Championship is an inevitable outcome. Even if you hadn’t brought it up, it would have happened sooner or later.”

Regional tournaments are no longer enough for most people, so a world championship is inevitable.

Sakaki speculated that even without Mammon's intervention, someone would definitely have made this suggestion within two years.

"Is the World Championship about to start? Then I can play against champions from other regions."

Mizuki's eyes lit up; Mammon had mentioned the World Championships to her before.

"Damaranchi is already preparing to notify the alliance leaders of various regions to discuss this matter together. President Lusamine should receive the news in the next few days."

"However, because this event is so large, even with the full cooperation of all regions, it would take at least one or two months to get it started."

Sakaki continued.

"Compared to the World Championships, Mammon, there is something else that is more urgent for you."

Sakaki's lips curled slightly as he looked at Mammon.

"The end of the year is approaching, and the league is getting a little impatient. What do you think?"

That's right. With the Quartz Conference, the most important event of the year, over, the next thing the Kanto League needs to do is deal with the Rockets.

"What I mean? I've been waiting for this moment for a long time."

Mammon tapped his fingers lightly on the table, his smile gradually turning sinister.

"After we get back to Kanto, I'll give the League a reason to take action. Dad, you just wait here in the League to come and take down Team Rocket."

"Hehehe..."

Sakaki chuckled and shook his head. Yes, as the Kanto Champion, he would naturally have to fight Team Rocket as the Kanto Champion.

But how to say it?

The thought of "slaying Team Rocket" still made Giovanni feel uneasy.

"The League is going to attack Team Rocket??" Lillie, who was unaware of the situation, was stunned and quite surprised upon hearing this.

"It's not about starting a full-scale war, but about using this opportunity to clarify the relationship between the Rockets and the league."

Gladion gave Lillie a brief explanation, but Lillie was clearly even more confused.

Lusamine sipped her tea gracefully, knowing that this matter had nothing to do with her and she had no intention of getting involved in the fight.

"Tsk~ I've only just become the Alola Champion. Speaking of which, what am I going to do with this status?"

Mizuki frowned slightly, looking a little troubled. She had just become the Alola Champion, but at the same time, she was also a top executive of the Rockets.

In what capacity should she participate in this battle?

Will he stand on the Rockets' side as a top executive and fight against the league's trainers, or will he help the Rockets fight against league trainers as the Alola Champion?
This is a really difficult problem.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, Kukui and the others know you're from the Rockets."

Mammon replied with a laugh.

"Anyway, let's issue a notice first, and have everyone assemble in Saffron City, Kanto."

That night, all senior and top executives of the Rockets around the world received a system message from the Rockets.
