Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Done.

His figure disappeared into the Crown Temple.

A soft, green light surrounded the Crown Temple.

It is believed that once the power of faith of the Crowned King is restored, the summit of Crown Mountain will present a completely different scene.

"Can't even a regular Poké Ball, or a Great Ball, contain the Spirit Power of a Grimmsnarl?"

Xia Yan glanced at the spirit horse beneath him and murmured something to himself.

"Huh? (Are we leaving?)"

Seeing that Xia Yan and Lei Guan Wang had finished their conversation, Cong Youbing couldn't help but ask.

Its reluctance to part with Zapdos made Xia Yan chuckle.

"Don't worry, I may need to rest for a while."

Xia Yan's words made Cong Youbing breathe a sigh of relief.

It seems so.

Although it was only the first day they met, Duck and Zapdos seemed to be getting along quite well.

Xia Yan didn't mind having another mouth in the team.

The premise is that Duck can fool Zapdos.

But judging from the appearance of free-range chickens...

The feasibility is estimated to be low.

Xia Yan dismounted from the back of the Spirit Horse.

He immediately felt his superpowers rapidly diminishing, and his originally powerful mental energy also weakened rapidly.

But it may be because the "spiritual seed" given by the Brilliant King had an effect.

The reduction was slightly smaller than Xia Yan had anticipated.

"Rest where you are."

Xia Yan said something to the elves, walked to the side, and took out his phone.

He dialed Kikuko's number.

Not long after.

The communication was then connected.

"what's up?"

Kikuko's slightly hoarse voice came from the phone.

"Teacher, I just got some information and I'd like you to help me investigate something."

"explain."

“An organization called the ‘Ginkgo Merchant Guild,’ though it may not be that name. I only know that they have existed for at least a thousand years and were once active in the Sinnoh and Johto regions, and possibly the Kanto region as well.”

"How long ago?" Kikuko's voice was a few decibels louder.

“Uh…” Xia Yan touched his nose and repeated, “One, more than a thousand years ago.”

"I may be old, but that doesn't mean I've been living for over a thousand years."

Kikuko's irritating words came through.

"Uh, teacher, that's not what I meant."

"Alright. Ginkgo Merchant Guild, right? I understand. Is there anything else?"

"Also... Teacher, could you please keep an eye on the royal descendants, big and small, in the Kanto and Johto regions?"

"Dududu-"

The phone rang busy.

Xia Yan tugged at his face.

After a moment of silence, he called Cynthia again.

He repeated the same things he had done with Kikuko.

He always felt...

By focusing on the "Ginkgo Chamber of Commerce," we should be able to obtain a lot of information.

In this regard.

As a mythologist with considerable knowledge of the ancient history of the Sinnoh region, Cynthia should be able to obtain information faster than Agatha Christie.

Not long after Xia Yan finished his call with Cynthia, his phone rang again.

When Xia Yan saw the caller ID displayed as "Dodo Bird," he couldn't help but smile.

This is not.

Did the thugs deliver themselves to our doorstep?

The call was connected.

"Xia Yan, you son of a bitch, don't just say half of what you mean! What rare dragon-type Pokémon? You better explain yourself clearly."

Watari's roar made Xia Yan instinctively move the phone away from his ear.

After a while, when the sound gradually subsided, he put the ear close again.

"Want to know? I'm in the Galar region right now. If you want to know, you can come over now."

"Where? You went to Galar?" Watari asked in surprise.

The two exchanged a few words briefly.

Xia Yan took out another specially made communicator, pursed his lips, and dialed the other party.

"Friend, want unlimited energy? Unlimited energy."

Sure enough, something happened.

I need to stay at the hospital tonight to take care of my mom, so there probably won't be any updates tonight. I'm so sorry...

I've been under a lot of pressure these past few days. Although I've taken several days off, I've still managed to write 330,000 to 340,000 words this month. To be honest, I'm a bit tired.

Chapter 184 The Eight Masters Tournament!

three days later.

Xia Yan, having left the Crown Snowfield, returned to Galar once again.

Quanjuku City.

The city at the very center of the Galar region has a long history and was once the central city of the Galar region.

Today, due to rapid development, the largest and most prosperous city in the Galar region has become the Palace City, where the headquarters of the Marocco Group stands, but the importance of the Motogaku City remains self-evident.

It is a city that completely separates the wild regions from the human regions, and it was also an important fortress for humans to defend against attacks from wild elves in ancient times.

The towering, ancient buildings, the high city walls, and the boxing arena that highlights the historical character of the Galar region.

At this moment, inside the Fighting Cafe in Hammerlocke City.

"Congratulations, Dante-chan."

Xia Yan, sitting by the window petting Zoroa, smiled as he looked at the young man in front of him, whose actual age was definitely less than his appearance suggested.

Despite being less than twenty years old, he had already grown a beard.

"Xia Yan, don't follow your master's example."

Dante, holding his coffee, looked helpless. He expressed some difficulty accepting Xia Yan's way of addressing him.

Gently rub the edge of the coffee.

"So, you beat Popella, right?"

At this point, Dan Di's face broke into a confident smile again, and he grinned, saying, "Yes, it shouldn't be long before my... championship moment arrives!"

talking.

Dante even raised his hand and struck a pose that was unique to him.

It is said that...

This was a pose specially designed for him by Loz, so that everyone who sees this pose in the future will be reminded of the Dan in front of them.

It must be said that in terms of business and publicity, Lorz's abilities are truly in a class of their own.

This is somewhat similar to the advertisements that used to play in Xia Yan's original world. Just by recalling some of the classic lines, you could tell what they were selling.

For example.

I cherish you in the palm of my hand.

Another example.

No gifts this holiday season.

and many more.

Rose also spared no effort in promoting Dante.

When Xia Yan left the Crown Snowfield, he saw the promotional advertisement for Dan Di, and thus understood what Dan Di had been busy with all this time, as well as why Dan Di had been unable to deal with the Dynamaxing incident in the Slumbering Forest.

He signed up for the "Galar Championship," organized by the Galar Union and sponsored by the Malokom Group.

Hence the meaning of the name.

The winner of this tournament will become the third champion of the Galar League!

Since the Galar region championship is currently vacant, anyone who wins the championship tournament will become the champion.

This reduces the difficulty level by more than one notch.

Just like the "Road to the Champion" challenge, once you defeat the Four Heavenly Kings, there's no champion left to fight.
