Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Just as Shinji left, Ash, Dawn, and Brock found him.

"It's you guys." Xia Yan greeted them all, then his eyes lit up as he said, "Shinji just said he'd beat you, Ash, first, then beat me, and win the championship."

Upon hearing this...

Ash's face hardened. "Don't worry, Teacher Xia Yan! Shinji, I will definitely defeat him!"

"come on."

Xia Yan nodded.

For this tournament, Ash will probably call all the Pokémon he has caught to prepare for the competition.

The difficulty and excitement of the match were even greater than Carlos's tournament.

This can be said to be the peak of Ash's battle skills.

Carlos's battle against Alain... let's not even mention the Water Spray.

"Professor Xia Yan, I've finally found you."

Young Lady Prandina and her two companions squeezed through the crowded throng and found Xia Yan.

"Teacher Xia Yan, let me introduce you to someone."

talking.

Prandina, Diamond, and Par made way for each other.

A dashing young man with long, flowing hair, wearing a red trench coat, walked up to Xia Yan.

"Professor Xia Yan." The young man, with a noble air, bowed slightly and introduced himself, "My name is Dakdo. I've seen news about you online more than once recently, Professor Xia Yan. I never expected to meet you at this competition."

Xia Yan's eyes twitched slightly as he looked at the person who had arrived.

He had thought he wouldn't run into them.

Unexpectedly...

So, is this a battle between the real and fake divine beast men?

Rayquaza, give me back my Latios!

"Ahem, keep it up, I'm looking forward to your performance."

Dakdo's eyes shone brightly, "Of course! I'm also very much looking forward to the moment I spar with you, Teacher Xia Yan!"

"It's Darko from the Bellizzi family."

Cynthia appeared behind Xia Yan at some point, watching his departing figure, and said softly.

"He's from the Bellridge family?" Xia Yan was taken aback.

Now that you mention it...

The hair colors of Dakdo and the young lady seem to be very similar!

Furthermore, if Darkrod is a member of the Bellriz family, then his possession of so many mythical beasts makes sense to some extent.

after all.

The Bellri family were also key members involved in the "Rayquaza Capture Project".

If you've already caught Rayquaza, it makes perfect sense to catch Darkrai and then Latios, right?

Prantina stuck out her tongue.

"Not entirely. Dacto's surname isn't Belize, but he is indeed related to our family. Um... he's my cousin."

Good guy.

Xia Yan realized once again just how terrifying the family background of this world could be.

The eldest brother of the Zifuqi family, Dakoto of the Bellici family?

“Darkdor had been studying and growing up in other regions before, and he only recently returned to Sinnoh. My dad only told me about it after I got home,” Plantina added.

"She's a pretty good trainer, worth keeping an eye on." Cynthia blinked her slightly mischievous eyes at Xia Yan.

Xia Yan's lips twitched downwards.

This time, it seems the identity of this mythical beast man will truly be revealed, and it may be difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake.

After chatting with Xia Yan for a while, Cynthia walked towards the high platform of the arena amidst a deafening roar of cheers and surrounded by her fluttering black trench coat.

Holding the microphone in one hand and supporting her waist with the other, her golden hair cascaded down her back.

"The Lily of the Valley Festival officially begins!"

In an instant.

A dazzling display of fireworks shot into the sky, instantly igniting the passion of the audience and all the contestants.

...

...

Mystery.

Full Moon Island.

Looking slightly disheveled, Eiji emerged from the jungle. "Strange, why can't I find that Electric-type Pokémon that Xia Yan mentioned I've never seen before?"

He slapped his forehead.

"Oh no! The Lily of the Valley Festival! My badge...!"

After a long pause, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Thankfully, I left behind the battle robots and enough badges, so it shouldn't affect the contestants' participation... Let's look around some more."

do not know why.

this time.

Aside from searching for that spirit, Denji felt that he had a lot of dreams at night.

Chapter 130 Tactics? No, a brute-force push!

"We are all trainers who have obtained eight badges, and our strengths are very similar. I was just lucky."

In the round of 64, Xia Yan, who used Nian Mei'er, swept the opponent and comforted their wounded hearts with these words.

It's unclear whether the other person has been cured or has completely given up on treatment.

Simultaneously.

Some people who didn't know Xia Yan before gradually got to know him through his performance in the preliminary rounds.

Furthermore, some people, out of curiosity about Xia Yan's identity, conducted some online searches.

The result was, of course, quite surprising.

The details of the Hoenn disaster are slowly coming to light, and more and more people are learning about it.

Xia Yan, who turned the tide in the Hoenn disaster, gradually became a trending topic.

The man who rides Rayquaza has entered the Lily of the Valley Tournament!

Recently, news articles with this text as their title have been trending on the official website of the league for a long time.

among them.

Furthermore, a high-definition photo of him standing atop Mega Rayquaza's head, holding his hat, directly facing Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre, was prominently displayed at the very top of this news article.

then.

Then, a high-resolution photo of Xia Yan commanding the armored dragon to dominate the Lily of the Valley Tournament preliminaries was placed at the beginning of the next paragraph.

At last.

The author of this news article concluded with a single sentence.

"Xia Yan, the 'successor' of the Rayquaza, is participating in the Lily of the Valley competition to fry fish. Please heed my advice: Everyone, run!"

boom--

Fairy Yin Bu, who had been standing on the table reading the entire report with Xia Yan, pouted and slammed the lid shut on Xia Yan's computer, clearly not satisfied.

"Bui~~"

Fairy Yin Bu was very angry.

They actually called it fried fish?

We are all trainers with eight badges, so how can you say we're frying fish?

What if Xia Yan gets upset and doesn't even give it a chance to show itself again?

Seeing the little guy's angry yet worried expression, Xia Yan was speechless.

The two ribbons, rolled up, were carefully tied into a brand new bow on the fairy Yin Bu's head.

"Don't worry, public opinion won't have any effect on me."

"Bui?" Fairy Yinbu carefully touched the bow on her head, her face immediately lighting up with a smile. She tilted her head and looked at Xia Yan with a puzzled expression.

Xia Yan stretched lazily.

"Some people have caught Mewtwo and participated in the Indigo League, and also signed up for the Johto League. They almost made it to the Lily of the Valley Conference this time. I just rode Rayquaza for a bit, that's nothing."

Upon hearing this...

Fairy Yin Bu suddenly realized what was happening.

That makes sense.

Upon hearing these words, Chi Hong, who was chatting with Xiao Huang nearby, immediately looked dejected.

"Teacher Xia Yan, stop bashing me. Now, every time someone mentions this to you, you use me as a scapegoat. I'm getting tired of being 'slashed'."

Xia Yan shrugged. "Alright, let's put it another way. Two people gained the approval of Ho-Oh and Lugia, but in the end they didn't..."

"I didn't attend this conference!" ×2

Ah Jin and Xiao Yin spoke at the same time.

After they finished speaking, they realized that the other person had said the same thing. They couldn't help but glare at each other, and then simultaneously snorted and turned their heads away.
