This elf world is kind of weird

After a small episode, the days waiting for the summer camp to start became a little more varied.

The leisurely vacation on Melemele Island has turned into a small classroom with irregular classes.

Compared with the super rookie whose tactical style has long been finalized and focuses on toughness and reverse attributes, Shota, who is full of understanding and has some potential as a tactician, is undoubtedly the one who is more appealing to Philio.

Although he is still just a fledgling newcomer.

The Mongoose Inspector and Rada in the lush caves, the Mane Rock Werewolf in the Ten Carat Hills, the Tench in the Melemele Sea... and even the Explosive Mosquito that finally settled in the Melemele Garden.

One after another, powerful Pokémon and ultra-exotic beasts appeared in front of Shota during his travels, bringing novel experiences to the immature new trainers and opening the door to a new world.

What makes a truly powerful Pokémon and trainer.

Defeat powerful regional overlords in an understatement, and even have time to explain the advantages and disadvantages of each opponent, turning the fierce outdoor battle into a practical course.

Compared to the admirable Daigo who stood high in the mountains, Philio who was right in front of him made Shota feel the style of a champion trainer firsthand.

The notebook that I never left my body in the past has been put into my backpack. Instead, I observe with my eyes, measure with my feet, and experience in memory and perception.

Just like when Kikuko taught Filio a year ago.
-
Days passed that made both Korni and Nazi a little jealous. By the time Filio had visited almost all of Melemele Island, the summer camp for new trainers finally started as scheduled in mid-May.

Route [-], suburb of Hau'ola City.

In the school square of Hauale City Pokémon School, hundreds of new trainers who are still young but have high morale gather here.

On the rostrum, Principal Seiya Omu, Old Man Omu's cousin and an expert in Pokémon regional morphological research, rushed back to the school from the research institute on Ula'ula Island to preside over the opening ceremony.

In the audience, Lusamine, who had just recovered from a serious illness, also came with a group of senior officials from the Aether Foundation and sat with the captains and island kings from various islands. The atmosphere was unusually warm.

However, some people's painting style may be different from everyone else's.

Because he was pulled by Nazi to play the battle simulator for most of the night the night before, Philio was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes. It happened that the speech of "Brown Wood" on the stage made people drowsy, so he simply put his head on the On Erni's shoulder, she soon fell asleep.

But before he slept for long, a stab of pain woke him up from his slightly drooling dream.

"Hiss-it hurts! I was about to...!"

When he woke up and was about to complain, he saw Nazi's hand still pressing on his waist, and she remained silent.

Wiping the drool from the corner of his mouth, Filio looked at Nazi without knowing why, and received a moderate slap on the back of the head from Korni.

"look by youself."

Nazi pointed at the stage unhappily. Following her fingertips, Filio could only see the back of Chengye Omu as he left the stage, while Dr. Kukui, the actual person in charge of the training camp, walked into the middle and began to breathe. A thorough introduction to the summer camp’s courses and projects.

The newcomers in the audience were stunned for a moment, and even the students from the trainer's school were whispering.

Only then did he realize that the boring speech had come to an end, and it was time to get down to business.

After adjusting his collar, Filio, who was very concerned about his appearance, sat upright. He turned his head, winked at Shota who was sitting in the back row, and curled his lips in an exaggerated way, which made the little green hairy, who was also bored, laugh.

However, he was not given many opportunities to play tricks with his juniors. Kukui on the stage was already talking about today's "special program."

"Dear guests and classmates, please allow me to introduce the special part of today's summer camp opening ceremony - I will have an exhibition match with a powerful trainer."

Pulling out the microphone from the stand on the podium, Kukui strode to the edge of the podium, his tone of voice slightly raised, and his playful gaze accurately locked on Filio.

Philio also had to turn his head, rub the corners of his eyes, and straighten his back.

Having already expected that he would have an idol burden comparable to that of Daigo, Kukui smiled heartily, stopped showing off, and announced loudly: "Now, please welcome the candidates for the Four Heavenly Kings in the Kalos region, the heroes who saved the Etherland crisis. This time Mr. Filio, the special counselor of the summer camp!”

Hearing Philio's name, the dense crowd in the audience was in an uproar.

At the age of these new trainers, they are in the stage of hero worship, and they are very familiar with famous trainers.

Warm cheers rose one wave after another, and the quiet square was suddenly filled with people.

With everyone looking forward to it, Filio slowly stood up, walked onto the ring, and waved to the audience.

The soft eyes swept over the smiling Korni and the cold-hearted Nazi, and the remaining sleepiness disappeared.

"Dr. Kukui, please give me your advice."

Bowing politely and saluting, Filio held the elf ball he had prepared in his palm and looked at Kukui with interest.

The keystone bracelet reflects colorful light in the sun.

"Alola Summer Camp Exhibition Match, Kukui versus Filio, the format is one-on-one, I announce that the battle begins!"

Principal Seiya Omu, who had left the field, appeared on the referee's bench at some point, holding the flag and waving it hard. The eagerness in his eyes was no less than that of the young people.

"The Blazing Roaring Tiger, I leave it to you!"

"Big Mouth Boy, let everyone see your power!"

The red and white Poké Balls flew towards each other and exploded in the air. The shining white light conveyed the champion's spirit. The invisible Qi machines collided in the air and both dissipated.

Roaring Tiger

Sex: male

Attributes: fire, evil
Ability: Intimidate
Energy accumulation: 78
"Gailu!!!!!"

The powerful and majestic figure landed steadily on the stage, and his majestic roar attracted bursts of cheers.

As the ace of the Royal Masked Men whose identity has been exposed, this roaring tiger and his unrivaled blazing fire are the idols of countless Alola teenagers.

The tyrannical pressure rushed towards him and turned into a raging wave, pressing down on the extremely small Big Mouth Child in front of him.

"Qi Duo!"

Feeling the wisps of energy in his body and the slight sluggishness in his limbs, looking at the ferocious face of the opponent in front of him, the already arrogant Big Mouth boy suddenly became furious.

His handsome little face was filled with anger and ferocity. He bumped his fists hard, and the surging air swayed the keystone on his chest. The colorful light of bond and evolution shone on the high platform.

The majestic aura spurted out from the petite body, and the ferocious jaws opened and closed continuously, exuding a clear and incomparable threat.

Hidden beneath his cute face is a volcano that may erupt at any time.

The Red Flame Roaring Tiger, who was only one step away from the legend, couldn't help but feel uncertain. He subconsciously took a half step back to resist the pressure of the big-mouthed baby.

The party that is good at intimidation is intimidated by the momentum of its opponent.

"Now! Charge forward! Iron Head!"

"Qi Duo!"

The half-step gap was a fatal flaw. With Filio's order, Mega Big Mouth Kid, who had already been accumulating anger, seized the opportunity and launched an attack directly.

The short but powerful legs swung rapidly, creating an afterimage of steel. The bloody mouth above the jaws was tightly closed, and the whole body flashed with a cold metallic light.

Without waiting for the Blazing Roaring Tiger to react, the extremely swift iron head directly passed through the protection of its arms and hit its muscular abdomen hard.

"Bam—"

The collision of muscles and steel made a dull roar. Known for its strength, the blazing roaring tiger that once defeated Super Boss Cordora was vulnerable to the Mega Big Mouth Baby. His eyes widened and he flew backwards. .

There were exclamations in the audience, and even Lusamine, who had seen a lot, couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaimed softly, her eyes filled with surprise.

On the stage, Kukui's face instantly became serious. The initial sense of relief because Philio didn't send out his ace dream monster disappeared. He looked at the big-mouthed kid with calm eyes and ordered in a deep voice:

"Fire Roaring Tiger, use flame spray!"

In mid-air, using continuous back rolls to stabilize his body, the Blazing Roaring Tiger covered his painful abdomen with one hand and held it in front of his mouth with one hand.

"Gallu!"

In the blazing roar, the fire snake danced and blasted towards the battlefield with the force of burning the sky and the sea.

"Well done! Big Mouth Boy, use the sharp stone attack to block it! Keep chasing!"

Facing the menacing flames, Filio did not panic and shouted with clapping hands.

"Rumble..."

Before he finished speaking, the solid earth trembled violently, and sharp rocks emerged from the ground. In a blink of an eye, a defense line composed of stone forest was built to block the fire snake.

"boom--"

The flame collided head-on with the rock, and in an instant, the high temperature baked the stone surface red, making a crisp "click-click" sound.

The rolling heat wave spread to all directions, and even if there was an energy barrier to cover it, people couldn't help but sweat, half from the exposure to the sun, and half from the surging heartbeat.

Seeing the Royal Masked Man's signature flaming onslaught again, his loyal fans erupted in cheers.

But Kukui on the stage was not happy at all. Instead, he frowned and stared nervously at the sea of ​​​​fire in front of him.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed past.

Among the rocks, the unharmed Mega Big Mouth Baby looked at the burning flames as if they were nothing, shuttled at high speed, stepped on the hot rocks, jumped into the air, and chased the blazing roaring tiger that was about to fall but had not yet fallen.

"Gallu!"

The powerful enemy was approaching, and the blazing roaring tiger was unable to retreat. He roared angrily, stepped hard with his feet, and used the recoil of landing to gather strength. The flames condensed all over his body, and he launched a flash charge.

Attack against attack, a head-on dialogue suddenly descended like sparks hitting the earth.

Compared with the huge figure as majestic as a fireball, Mega Big Mouth Baby's figure is much thinner, his momentum is not strong enough, and his strength and weakness are particularly clear.

But at the moment of the intersection, a pale pink light suddenly lit up on the steel jaw, and the unyielding courage burst out instantly.

"boom--"

Flash charges and frolics, the same tyrannical forces meet in a narrow road, the tide of energy bursts out instantly, the rocks are broken, and the dust is flying.

In the hazy smoke, a ferocious steel jaw hit the blazing roaring tiger's head firmly, knocking it slightly off the mark. The shoulder of the burning flame was on the other steel jaw. Under the obstruction, it passed through the side of Mega Big Mouth Baby's abdomen, leaving a scorched black mark.

The incomplete blows fell at the same time, and the two sides exchanged moves and retreated at the same time.

"Exchange of offense and defense...suddenness of skills..."

Shota's eyes shone brightly in the audience, and he took out his notebook again and started writing furiously. Even the wooden shogunate on his shoulders was swaying, and he could barely sit still.

At the same time, both parties on the stage had no time to adjust. As soon as they landed, they rushed forward at the same time.

The two Pokémon, who were not originally known for their speed, showed unusual agility.

At a high speed that was difficult to detect with the naked eye, the two sides launched a fierce attack.

The strong arms and sharp jaws refused to give way to each other, displaying their wild instincts, honed skills and respective tactical styles in the powerful and heavy impact.

The characteristic of Mega Big Mouth Baby is that he is clever but not skillful. Every move does not seek surprise, but he always has extremely high efficiency. He must save the enemy when attacking, forcing the Blazing Roaring Tiger to face off with his unparalleled strength that he is proud of. Accumulate advantages in fighting.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger, which originally liked to suppress its opponents head-on, had no choice but to do the opposite in the face of Mega Big Mouth Baby's power. It mustered up the courage to resist with high-speed attacks, but focused on harassing them with flames and high temperatures in addition to close combat.

The smoke is billowing, and it is trying to use the smoke and fire to stimulate the big-mouthed baby's nerves, trying to find a flaw.

In the blink of an eye, there were dozens of tricks.

A series of scars appeared on the sturdy body of the Blazing Roaring Tiger. Some were blunt injuries with bruises and bruises, and some were blood marks left by the elusive fangs.

The Mega Big Mouth Baby had black marks all over its body and looked embarrassed. However, it had a slight upper hand due to the transformation of life brought about by evolution. Although it could not be completely suppressed, it still took a considerable advantage.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger, who has always been proud of his power, faced the Mega Big Mouth Kid who was also powerful but even better than him. Even though he had an advantage in energy accumulation, he had to surrender.

The close combat with fists and fists, the close combination of speed, strength and skills make this gap accumulate bit by bit, and the balance of victory is quietly accumulating.

In a dimension that ordinary people cannot see.

The two champion trainers were tit for tat. Naturally, the newcomers in the audience couldn't see why, and they just instinctively enjoyed the fierce battle.

Only a few people with superior understanding were vaguely aware of the profound fighting skills hidden under the strong attack and hard resistance.

In exhibition matches, they had rarely seen such an all-out confrontation. They were impressed by the extraordinary skills of both sides and looked forward to the next summer camp.

"Bam—"

There was another round of collision, and the playful mega kid felt that the fist in front of him became soft and weak as he swung it with all his strength. At the slightest touch, he suddenly fell back.

Taking a closer look, the Blazing Roaring Tiger had already revealed a sinister smile as if it had succeeded in its plan, and ducked away to distance itself from him.

"Well done, Blazing Roaring Tiger!" Seeing that the fire was almost done, Dr. Kukui sighed in praise, no longer holding back, and raised his arms towards the back of the Blazing Roaring Tiger and shouted, "Now it's up to us! The super limit Explosive bomb!"

"Gailu!!!!!"

The blazing roaring tiger was excited when he heard the sound, and rushed in front of Kukui.

Amid the enthusiastic cheers from the audience, the famous wrestling partners performed a Z-skill dance that looked very cool to children but was particularly embarrassing in the eyes of Philio.The strong bodies twisted wildly, making Filio and the mega-big-mouth baby couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths, feeling extremely ashamed.

"Machi! Machi~!"

Above the head, the little dream demon who was enjoying the fun was laughed out loud by the contrasting funny gestures. Inadvertently, it slipped from Filio's head and fell to the ground with a "chirp", laughing so hard Rolling all over the floor.

However, although it looks funny, as the most powerful one-time skill, the power of Z skill cannot be underestimated.

The powerful fire stream condensed, and the momentum of the blazing roaring tiger rose steadily. A huge fireball condensed in front of him and rose to the top of his head.

The blazing roaring tiger raised its arms high and looked in the direction of the big-mouthed baby with a red face.

The time for the decisive battle is approaching.

In line with the principle of an exhibition match, Philio did not use the idea of ​​​​defending forcefully to resist. He straightened his back with a solemn expression and said loudly:
"Big Mouth Boy, let's come too and dance with swords!"

"Qi Duo!"

The fighting spirit boiled in the eyes of the big-mouth boy, and the brilliance of the sword dance instantly appeared from his jaws. His not-so-tall body was like a sword unsheathed, its sharp edge revealed, and his momentum was brewed to the extreme in an instant, and he assumed a playful starting position.

"Gallu!"

His arms fell down, and fireballs fell from the sky.

"Qi Duo!"

Pink light shines, and the petite figure strides forward.

Facing the giant fireball that was boiling with flames, Mega Big Mouth had no intention of dodge, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he stepped hard on the ground with all his strength.

"Crack-"

The hard floor shattered in an instant, revealing lines as fine as a spider web. The unprecedented tyrannical power brought the gifts of the earth into the Mega Big Mouth Baby's body, pushing it to leap high into the sky, facing it head-on, and headed straight for the fireball.

"call--"

The scorching air waves dispersed in all directions at the moment of collision.

The boiling heat energy penetrated the barrier and brought everyone the heat of midsummer.

In an instant, the audience in the front row was dripping with sweat.

On both sides of the battlefield, Filio and Kukui remained motionless, with no expression on their faces, as if they were unaware of the rolling heat.

It was just a moment, but it was as long as a fierce battle.

Filio's fists clenched subconsciously, and Kukui's brows also frowned into a small bulge.

The firelight reflected in their eyes, with completely different expectations and emotions.

"Swish"

After a long moment, there was a soft sound, and the two people's completely different expressions were revealed.

A small gap was drilled out of the huge fireball, and the Mega Big Mouth Kid, covered in hot white smoke, rushed out boldly.

His whole body was covered with traces of burning flames, but he still walked as fast as he could, with murderous intent flying straight towards the blazing roaring tiger.

The sword was forged in the fire, and its sharpness was even higher. The distance between them made Kukui frightened.

"Fire Roaring Tiger! Charge forward and charge with Flash!"

With a wave of his hand to cover up the flash of timidity in his heart, Kukui shouted loudly, not only to cheer for the Blazing Roaring Tiger, but also to encourage himself.

"Gallu!"

Suppressing the fear in his heart, the blazing roaring tiger looked ferocious, and its ferocious face made it even more terrifying.

The fire light lit up, and the burly body turned into a burning fireball again and swooped forward.

The charge and playfulness of the flames condensed the confrontation of all the forces of the two sides in the fierce battle, and they met again on a narrow road.

Different from the previous temptation, this time, no one had any reservations.

"boom--"

At the moment of collision, manic energy exploded, and the deafening explosion almost took away everyone's hearing.

The blazing flames and the beautiful pink light with hidden murderous intent compete with each other, intertwining and rising into the sky.

The solid field shattered under the double blow of high temperature and huge force. The rolling air waves carried sparks and gravel and flew into the distance, smashing the energy barrier into flickering lights.

In just a few moments, the barrier that was large enough to accommodate the full strength of the champion Pokémon became dimmed.

The final attack of the two Pokémon with all their strength has reached the level of legend. Even if it is just the aftermath, it is difficult for this highest level barrier to completely protect it.

The hot air seems to make everything sticky, making people feel irritable.

Outside the battlefield, cheers, discussions, and exclamations were all silenced.

A pair of eyes filled with anticipation and longing were staring at the center of the explosion, ignoring the sweat falling down.

"clang--"

In the drowsiness, the bell that symbolized the end of the battle time was rung, which also aroused people's curiosity to the extreme.

All the smoke in front of them was dispersed, and the two Pokémon still maintained the same posture as when they collided, tightly entangled and motionless.

One of Big Mouth Baby's jaws landed on the belly of the Blazing Roaring Tiger, creating a deep dent.

The other one, standing impartially in front of him, was burned into black and red colors by the blazing flames.

But this time it was not knocked away, but blocked the momentum of the blazing roaring tiger from its torso.

A slight difference is a thousand miles away.

"Swish"

The breeze blew and turned into the last straw.

The delicate balance that was maintained with great difficulty was gently broken.

"bang"

As the big-mouthed boy shook his steel jaws slightly, the burly blazing roaring tiger tilted to one side, fell heavily to the ground, and fell into a coma.

The Mega Big Mouth Baby slowly straightened up and retracted the jaws that landed on the chest of the Blazing Roaring Tiger.

There was no celebration or shouting, just turning around, calmly walking towards Philio and standing in front of him.

"Chiduo."

He gently raised his little hand, his gray face filled with the reserve of a winner.

"Well done, we won and we won beautifully."

Philio knelt down, smiled and took his partner's hand, feeling the residual warmth of the flame remaining on his body.

The colored light of the bond slowly receded.

"Bah"

His tall figure lost the support of his strength and leaned forward, lying softly in Filio's arms.

"Chiduo~"

The beautiful big eyes are crescent-shaped, and the little face stained with a lot of ashes is full of exhaustion, but the smile at the corner of the mouth is particularly sweet.

"The Blazing Roaring Tiger has lost its ability to fight, and the winner is Mega Big Mouth Baby!"

"beep--"

Dr. Kukui's portrait dimmed on the big screen, and the word victory flashed under Philio's portrait.

In an instant, the silent venue was shaken, and the wave of applause and cheers continued for a long time.

Among them, a striking green color shouted particularly energetically.

And in the sky, an inconspicuous golden light flashed past.
-
Hauale City, home of Dr. Kukui.

With the end of the exhibition game, the opening ceremony of the summer camp also came to an end.

The teachers at the trainer school started the first lesson with the newcomers, while Kukui took Filio and slipped away quietly.

In this house that is both a residence and a research institute, Dr. Barnett had already prepared tea in anticipation.

But Kukui, who was still immersed in the battle, obviously didn't pay much attention to this.

He took the tea from his wife and placed it casually on the table. He was still thinking about it as he was keen on fighting.

Under the different eyes of Nazi and Korni, as if they were recognizing him again, he grabbed Filio's hand with great interest and asked:

"Why can your Big Mouth Baby withstand the blows of Z-move and Flash Charge? According to our research, it should not have such physical strength and attribute resistance."

"Thank you for the snack, Dr. Barnett. It tastes very good." Filio first nodded to Barnett to express his gratitude, then looked at Kukui and smiled enigmatically, "The average big-mouthed kid will definitely No, but my little tsundere is extraordinary."

"Hmm...what's unusual?" Kukui didn't know why.

"My big-mouth baby took Zygarde's energy crystal more than a year ago, so it has a resistance to fire-type skills that is far superior to that of its kind, and its vitality itself is far stronger than other members of the same race. , this is an innate talent.”

Gently stroking the big-mouthed baby in his arms, Filio's face was filled with pride for his companion.

It is precisely through the combination of talent, adventure, and hard work accumulated over time that it has the power it has today, which is enough to withstand the offensive of Flame Z head-on, and maintain its full strength to deliver a winning blow.

"Chiduo~"

The big-mouthed boy trembled with the bandage applied on his wound. Hearing the sound, he sat up and patted his small chest proudly.

Although it is not as famous as the Dream Demon and is well known by experts in various regions through its high-profile performances, in the field of close combat, it is also the most powerful among the entire team.

Even Emperor Nabo and Tyrannosaurus have to shy away from its Hercules form.

All opponents who despised it because of its petite stature, without exception, paid a heavy price.

"That's it...it's really..."

Kukui, who figured out the reason, scratched his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.

As top trainers, the two have different tactical qualities, and the strength of their Pokémon is not much different.

The game between details and intelligence is particularly critical when winning or losing is a matter of a hair's breadth, and this time it was him who was at a disadvantage in terms of intelligence.

From the initial surprise attack after Big Mouth Boy resisted the intimidation, to the accumulation of advantages in close combat, and finally to the winning blow using the resistance of fire attribute.

The interlocking tactics have been planned before they appear.

Facing the Z-move with the only explosive power, Philio, who chose the more stable combat method of mega evolution, won the favor of the goddess of victory.

"Dago is indeed right. You are a powerful trainer who can compete for the championship seat anywhere, and you are also a guy who is particularly favored by the goddess of victory."

Shaking his head to get rid of the regret of defeat, Kukui smiled in relief, stretched out his big hand, and held it with Filio.
-
The roof of a high-rise building in downtown Hau'ola.

The tall and slender figure put away his telescope and turned to look at his companions behind him. His eyes were so cold that people dared not look directly at him.

Under the scrutiny that was mixed with arrogance and anger, Huxing and Sui Xing, who had always had their eyes set high above their heads, did not dare to look at him and lowered their heads silently.

After a long time, the sense of scrutiny gradually dissipated and was replaced by a sigh.

"Forget it, it's unrealistic to expect you to compete with such a master. I already understand the reason for Master Chiri's death."

"Send the intelligence collected over the past few days to BOSS, and you can leave. Don't get in my way."

Saatchi turned his head indifferently, not giving the two of them a chance to defend themselves, and walked into the stairwell alone, the crisp footsteps gradually fading away.

On the rooftop, the unwilling Suixing and Huixing looked at each other. The two people who had always been at odds saw the same hatred in each other's eyes.

The same feeling of powerlessness arose in the hearts of both of them.

As Chiri's most loyal subordinates, they longed for revenge, but they had no room to refute Sachi's words.

Not to mention a head-on confrontation, even a face-to-face encounter from a distance would frighten them.

Philio has become a lingering shadow in their hearts. (End of chapter)
