I caught a Pokémon

Compared to him, the well-informed Aya and her Pokémon are relatively more difficult to deal with.

Now that there is only one enemy left in the field, Xia You is more at ease letting Charizard and Blastoise turn to deal with Morpho.

Faced with a two-on-one fight, Morpho was naturally no match and was quickly knocked to the ground by Charizard's Dragon Rage, losing its ability to fight.

Seeing this, Xia You breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he had a lot of experience in commanding Pokémon to attack enemies, so this double battle was really an easy one for him.

On the one hand, there was indeed a gap in strength; on the other hand, Aya and the young samurai held each other back, wasting a lot of opportunities.

Seeing that they had been defeated in this way, the two of them were naturally unwilling to give up, so they threw out the Poké Ball again and released their second Pokémon.

"Hey, you guys aren't planning on going back and forth like this forever, are you?"

Xia You muttered something, but before Aya and the others could speak, perhaps because the noise was too loud, the grass rustled and a round, pink figure emerged from it!

This Pokémon has big round eyes and a chubby face, making it look very cute.

Judging from its appearance, it's easy to see that this is clearly a chubby little dog.

Fat... Jigglypuff!?

Xia You's eyelids twitched involuntarily, and then her gaze slid down, immediately spotting the chubby guy holding a microphone.

Oh no, it really is that pink devil!!

There are countless Jigglypuffs in the world, but only this Jigglypuff holding a microphone is truly terrifying.

But how did it get here?!

Fat Ding looked around and saw so many people watching it. It seemed to think that with so many people here, it would be perfect to hold a concert.

It slowly raised the microphone, and seeing this, Xia You hurriedly shouted, "Oh no, we mustn't let it start singing!"

Aya and the samurai boy were seeing this chubby creature for the first time and were completely out of the loop. Even after hearing Xia You's words, they were still utterly bewildered.

"Wow, a wild Jigglypuff? It's so cute!"

Aya, in particular, was so captivated by Jigglypuff's adorable appearance that she didn't pay any attention to it and even tried to catch it with a Poké Ball.

Fat Ding seemed unmoved by everyone's reactions, focusing solely on showcasing his singing voice.

"Bo bo bo li bo bo li bo... bo bo bo li bo..."

A soft voice rang out, spreading from the microphone and clearly reaching everyone's ears.

As it spoke, everyone present, including the Pokémon, began to droop their eyelids and their consciousness gradually faded.

“Libo libo…bobo libo…”

Fatty sang a few lines, which it thought sounded wonderful, but after waiting for a long time, it didn't hear any applause or cheers from the audience.

When it came to its senses, it saw that both humans and Pokémon were fast asleep, and it pouted angrily.

"Pori!!"

It angrily jumped onto Aya's chest, and at the same time pulled a pen from under the microphone, and without hesitation started scribbling on everyone's faces one by one...

When Xia You woke up again, it was already the morning of the next day.

The crisp, cool air, hitting exposed skin, sent shivers down my spine.

He looked around and saw Pokémon lying all over the place, but the Jigglypuff had long since disappeared.

Looking around at everyone, Xia You saw black pen marks drawn on their faces. He smiled bitterly. Even without looking in a mirror, he knew that his face had been ruined by that chubby dog, just like theirs.

Chapter 131 The Quartz Conference

Xia You reached out and gently shook Xiao Chun awake.

"Hey, Xiaochun, it's dawn, wake up!"

"Huh? Is it already daylight?" Xiaochun rubbed her eyes sleepily. "Strange, how did I end up sleeping here? I clearly remember... watching your match against them yesterday?"

When she was fully awake, the next second she saw Xia You's face covered in graffiti.

"Xia You-ge? Why would you put this kind of stuff on your face for no reason? You're such a grown man, why are you still so childish?"

"...Childish my foot!"

Xia You took out a mirror and put it in her hand: "Look, it's not just me, you have one too."

"what!?"

When Xiaochun saw her face clearly, she exclaimed in surprise, then hurriedly took out a wet wipe from her backpack and wiped the marks off her face.

"How is this going?"

Xia You told her about the Jigglypuff's exploits with a rather helpless expression, then woke up her Pokémon one by one, and finally fixed her gaze on Aya and the samurai boy.

At this moment, the two were fast asleep. Xia You was afraid that they would continue to bother her, so she simply ignored them, captured the Pokémon into a Poké Ball, and then called Xiao Chun, and left quietly.

Not long after they left, Aya slowly woke up.

She sat up, looking dazed for a moment, before suddenly remembering what had happened yesterday.

His gaze swept around, but he didn't see Xia You's figure. Instead, he inadvertently glanced at his own Moro moth and saw that both its face and the warrior boy's face were covered with ridiculous graffiti.

She was stunned for a moment, then seemed to remember something, and hurriedly took out a mirror from behind her and looked at her face.

Her once slightly glamorous face was now covered in graffiti, with two thick dark circles under her eyes and a big black nose, making her look like a mischievous panda!

Could this... have been done by Xia You?!

He usually seems so serious; I never imagined he had this side to him!

And... drawing on other people's faces, what kind of weird fetish is that!?

A cool breeze blew by.

Aya was quite angry, but before she could retaliate, she suddenly felt a chill on her chest. Looking down, she saw that her collar had been disheveled.

Could it be that, besides painting on my face, he did something unspeakable to me while I was asleep?

Although Aya heard Jigglypuff's singing at the very end of her memory, deep down she simply couldn't believe that a Jigglypuff could have such power.

That despicable guy, daring to take advantage of me!?

Aya gritted her teeth, but she also knew clearly that, judging from the strength Xia You had shown yesterday, she was no match for him now.

It seems I need to find a place to devote myself to spiritual practice for a while!

As Aya straightened her clothes, she felt a surge of resentment.

Xia You! Just you wait! You bastard! One day, I'll come back for you, with interest, and get my revenge!!

Hmph, I'll never let you get away with this!!

……

"Achoo!"

Xia You and Xiao Chun continued westward, but before they could leave the Evergreen Forest, Xia You suddenly sneezed.

Xiaochun glanced at her and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did you catch a cold from sleeping on the floor?"

Xia You rubbed her nose and shook her head: "I'm so healthy, how could I catch a cold? Someone must be missing me!"

"How narcissistic! Who would even think of you for no reason?" Xiaochun chuckled, covering her mouth, not taking it seriously.

After passing Evergreen City, the two finally arrived at Quartz Plateau before noon.

Despite being called a plateau, the Quartz Plateau is not actually very high; it is only because of the surrounding basins that it appears so.

The climate here is pleasant and very suitable for living, but because of its extremely remote location, there is only one small town on the entire plateau.

We passed through the suburbs and entered the small town.

Before coming here, Xia You had searched for information about it online.

Although the permanent population here is not large, the city is small and lacks skyscrapers, so the pace of life is slow. In addition, the scenery is beautiful and the air is fresh, making it a perfect place for the elderly to spend their retirement years.

However, as he walked along, he discovered that this small city was already crowded with tourists from all directions.

"Wow, so many people..." Xiaochun exclaimed, then, afraid of being separated by the crowd, she quickly followed Xia You's footsteps.

Even though she was in the city, Xia You could already sense the change in atmosphere.

Whether it's the banners and advertisements everywhere or the conversations among people, you can feel how much everyone is looking forward to the upcoming Pokémon League Conference.

Only at this time of year do these influxes bring a brief but vibrant energy to this place.

The two walked through the streets without even needing a map, and entered the sports village prepared for the athletes amidst the enthusiastic crowd.

Although it's called a sports village, it's really just a few large buildings and a hundred two-story buildings built next to a lake.

At first glance, the environment here is beautiful, and the facilities such as restaurants, fitness centers, cinemas, and Pokémon centers are very complete, which can fully meet the various normal needs of trainers.

Upon arriving at the reception area and entering the lobby, Xia You was greeted by a female staff member who approached her proactively.

"Welcome, are you a trainer here to attend the League Tournament?"

Seeing Xia You nod, the staff member smiled and said, "Then, please show your receipt?"

Xia You took out the Pokédex and then the badge box, handing her the eight badges inside.

After checking the information and verifying the authenticity of the badge, the staff entered Xia You's information into the computer.

"Welcome, Mr. Xia You, to this Quartz Tournament. This is the rulebook, which contains information about the battles and related matters. Please keep it safe."

After returning everything, including a thin book, to Xia You, the staff member said, "The opening ceremony of the conference is the day after tomorrow, but there will be a torch relay tomorrow. If you have time, you can make an appointment to attend."

Seeing that Xia You did not have a clear intention, the staff member continued, "Alright, now let me check the information. You only have one person accompanying you, right?"

Xia You glanced at Xiao Chun and nodded.

"That's right, it's just the two of us."

The staff entered some information into the computer and then handed him two keys.

Because there were few of them, they were assigned a two-story building as their dormitory. The two entered the dormitory area and quickly found their dormitory according to the building number.

It must be said that the contestants not only have their meals completely free, but also have their own independent dormitory, which is really a very good treatment.

Standing in front of the gate and looking into the distance, you can vaguely see the main venue of the conference—the much-anticipated quartz sports field!

Chapter 132 Various Contestants

The two opened the door and stepped into the luxurious, independent dormitory.

The dormitory is spacious and bright, and it is kept very clean, without a speck of dust. There are six or seven rooms upstairs and downstairs, which is more than enough even if more than a dozen people live there at the same time.

However, Xia You only had Xiao Chun by her side, making the large house extremely desolate.

They each chose their preferred rooms. Although Xiaochun felt a little shy about being alone with her boyfriend under one roof, she didn't say anything. Instead, she put down her backpack and wandered around the rooms, showing great curiosity about everything around her.

"Alright, stop looking." Seeing her like this, Xia You reached out to stop her. "We're staying here for several more days. If we have time, let's walk around and enjoy the scenery together!"

Then, he touched his shrunken belly and gave a bitter smile.

"It's already this late, and I'm starving. Let's hurry to the restaurant and find something to eat!"

Hearing this, Xiaochun couldn't help but nod.

Since the trip, she hasn't had a proper meal in the past few days, and now, just thinking about those delicious dishes makes her mouth water.

Before leaving, however, she took out her phone and sent text messages to Professor Sakuragi and her mother to let them know she was safe.

Outside the dormitory, the restaurant was not far away, but because it was lunchtime, many contestants had already gathered there when they entered.

The sounds of people and Pokémon mingled together, creating a chaotic atmosphere.

Looking around, one can see more than a dozen windows, and under the glass cabinets are many long tables piled high with all kinds of delicious food.

Not only is its color enticing, but its aroma is also mouthwatering.

Xia You carried a plate full of food and sat down with Xiao Chun in a quiet corner by the window.

But by chance, his gaze swept across the room and he unexpectedly spotted a few familiar faces!

The most eye-catching of them all was Xiao Mao, who was surrounded by several beautiful women!

At this moment, Shigeru sat cross-legged on a dining chair, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, seemingly enjoying it immensely. However, judging from his shifty gaze, he was clearly secretly assessing the strength of each trainer.
