After all, she is just an ordinary family trainer with relatively high talent.

It is naturally incomparable to those who have been trained since childhood.

But now.

Have a clear goal and someone you want to defeat.

Having a trusted partner and being confident in your own dedication and hard work.

Mei can say it now.

“My heart is pounding.”

"...when the will to fight is lost, the other side wins."

When he came to his senses, he was already standing on the sidelines of the battle.

"The battle begins!"

Only after the referee announced the start of the fight did Mei regain her composure.

He took a deep breath and looked determinedly over the Poké Ball in his hand.

Mei gently threw the Poké Ball in her hand.

"Come on, Monarch Snake."

"Bring me victory."

The dazzling light instantly illuminated every corner.

As the light faded, an elegant monarch snake slowly emerged.

The scarlet pupils were filled with arrogance.

The tail behind it sways gently, bringing a hint of mystery and indescribable beauty.

The next second, green energy burst out with the swinging tail, forming a flying leaf storm.

The blades, as sharp as knife blades, cut through the air, making a roar.

The Pokémon on the opposite side was quickly swallowed up by the Leaf Storm before it could even utter a single harsh word.

"Don't be careless, keep going!"

Mei, who stood on the battlefield, became extremely calm.

Now there is only one thing in Mei's mind.

End the battle quickly.

Then go back to find Natsume.

There is no special reason, the idea just popped up in my mind very naturally.

"Monarch snake."

"instigate!"

Although no clear instructions were given, the Monarch Snake quickly understood what Mei meant.

The overwhelming storm of flying leaves surged out again.

For the devil's advocate, there's only one thing to do.

That is the constant storm of flying leaves.

With this tactic, the opponent didn't last much longer than the Shuttlecock flower that Natsume had encountered before.

When there is an absolute gap in strength, insisting will only result in a few more meaningless beatings.

"...Mei wins and advances!"

Raising the small flag in his hand, the referee announced that Mei won the competition.

"Great Monarch Snake."

"instigate!"

After the battle, Mei jumped up and hugged the monarch snake's neck.

The proud monarch snake lowered its head and gently rubbed Mei's cheek.

For Mei, the Monarch Snake is the most trustworthy partner.

For the Monarch Snake, Mei is the meaning of its fight.

As long as it is what Mei wants, it will do it.

"Contestant Mei, please leave as soon as possible."

The referee at the side came forward and gently reminded Mei.

"Oh, alright."

With an apologetic smile on her face, Mei took back the Monarch Snake and quickly left.

Walking back along the contestant channel they came from, Mei placed her hand lightly on her chest.

Feel the beating of your heart in your chest.

Mei unconsciously quickened her pace.

"Natsume, I'm back."

"Thank you for your hard work."

In the players' waiting room, there was a smiling face that Mei was familiar with.

With the same smiling face, he handed over a cup of hot water just like Mei did before.

"not bad."

“It’s still relatively easy, and not too hard.”

Mei took the hot water handed to her by Natsume and sat on the sofa beside her.

If nothing else, this sofa is pretty comfortable.

I felt like I was sinking into it.

Oh no, I’m feeling sleepy.

Feeling the softness behind her, Mei's expression relaxed.

It was completely different from the previous battle.

"Then comes the main competition."

"Well, we'll probably meet then."

Chapter 5: Flashing Tail Standing: Am I cute? (k)

After several rounds of elimination matches that were neither too intense nor too tense, the places for the top 16 were finally determined.

According to the schedule of the competition, it will probably be all finished before tonight.

Although it’s not nice to say this, the kind of exciting battles seen on TV are unlikely to happen.

Whether it is a fight between newcomers or a fish-frying game, it will end quite quickly.

In the players' waiting room, Mei was flipping through the documents in her hand.

Although the scale of the competition is not large and the list of contestants has not been announced before.

But Mei still took advantage of this time to collect information about some of the players.

Gathering information about the opponent and then formulating reasonable tactics is also part of being a trainer.

It is said that some battle masters can even guess the order in which the other side will send out Pokémon and the possible lineup based on the lineups of both sides before the game begins.

Mei can't do this, she can only understand the general principle.

To put it simply, it is to speculate on the opponent's possible backhand to supplement the attack range based on the attributes and restraint of the basic lineup.

The trainer's battle begins the moment he steps into the battlefield.

“There’s nothing to be particularly concerned about at this point.”

"As expected, Natsume is still too good in this kind of competition."

Strictly speaking, Mei is now a super favorite to win this kind of small competition.

As long as there are no special circumstances, winning the championship is generally not a problem.

However, there happened to be a Natsume in this kind of small competition.

It simply means 'Let's all compete happily for the second place.'

But in the final analysis, Mei signed up for this competition just for Natsume.

If it weren't for Natsume, Mei might be currently formulating a strategy to prepare for another challenge at the gym where she had previously lost.

Mei believes that her friends will not be broken by trash talk now.

Steelix's mouth is much harsher than trash talk.

What follows is a direct personal attack that hurts the person.

"…The contestant won and advanced to the quarterfinals."

"It seems like Natsume is almost here."

Mei turned off the screen of the tablet in her hand, raised her head and slightly stretched her stiff neck.

After entering the main competition, the organizers arranged a waiting room for each of the top 16 players.

Compared to the previous small room, the biggest change is probably the TV in front of Mei playing the game footage.

Beside Mei, in addition to the ringing of the bells, the few little ones brought by Natsume were also watching the content on TV curiously.

Natsume left the waiting room when the game was almost over.

Before leaving, he left the entertainers and cheerleaders he brought with him to watch the show with Mei.

The fun people refer to Togepi and Zoroark.

The cheerleaders refer to Gardevoir and Uruk-York.

After the next two came, they rarely appeared.

Erguiro is curious about everything in the city, but no matter how curious he is, he has to wait until Natsume's game is over before he can go out to play.

As for Gardevoir, it has no curiosity or interest in the city.

During this time, Gardevoir would rather have a good sleep.

But speaking of cheerleaders.

Mei's gaze unconsciously drifted to Gardevoir who was sitting quietly beside her.

She was really curious about what Gardevoir would look like if she wore cheerleading clothes.

Well, not human though.

But it shouldn't be ugly.

After all, it has long been ranked first on the list of 'the strongest Pokémon to marry'.

It is said that there are indeed trainers abroad who have married Gardevoir.

Well, I can only say it's not surprising.

This is human XP.

"Let's welcome the two contestants of the fourth round of the 16-to-8 competition with warm applause!"

"Natsume!"

"Zheng Ming!"

The host's voice came from the TV.
