Xiaozhi Reborn: Restarting the Journey

Xiaozhi and his group, who were traveling in the Whirlpool Islands, finally arrived at the venue of the Whirlpool Islands Tournament, Kako City on Hongyan Island.

As soon as they got off the communication ship, Xiaoxia's excitement almost overflowed. She said excitedly:"Finally, the Whirlpool Islands Tournament has begun! I must win the championship and get the title of Water Pokémon Warrior!"

Xiaogang felt Xiaoxia's enthusiasm and said:"Xiaoxia, you are very confident!"

Xiaoxia said confidently:"Of course, the Whirlpool Islands Tournament is the most suitable competition for me who aspires to become a Water Pokémon Master!"

Xiaozhi smiled and said:"Okay, let's go to the Pokémon Center to sign up for the preliminaries!"

There were many trainers who signed up for the competition in the Pokémon Center, so Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia went to line up. Xiaoxia said:"There are many trainers who come to sign up!"

Xiaozhi said:"Yes, we have to wait a little longer!"

Fortunately, ten minutes later, it was Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia's turn.

Miss Joy said,"Next!"

Xiao Gang pushed Xiaozhi aside and said,"If the Whirlpool Islands Tournament is a grand celebration of water Pokémon, then Miss Joy is the goddess of water! Your beauty is as clear as a drop of water!"

Miss Joy said,"This......Sir, are you here to sign up for the Whirlpool Islands Competition?"

Xiao Gang leaned forward again and said,"No, I'm here to sign up for the Miss Joy Love Competition......."

Xiaoxia dragged the person away:"Stop talking nonsense, come here!"

Xiaozhi said:"Ms. Joy, we have completed the registration for the competition in Kuga City."

Miss Joy said:"Please tell us your birthplace and name."

"I am Xiaozhi from Pallet Town"

"I am Misty from Cerulean City."

Miss Joy entered Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia's names into the computer, and their information was displayed on the screen in front of them.

Miss Joy said:"The registration for the preliminaries has been completed.

The preliminaries will be held in 16 venues.

Xiaozhi, you are in venue A, and Xiaoxia, you are in venue B.

The preliminaries will be held in an elimination tournament.

Only the last 64 trainers can enter the main venue to compete.

I will take a look at the number of preliminaries this year.......

In the preliminaries, you only need to win two games to enter the finals.

"

Ash took the venue map handed over by Miss Joy and said,"We got it. Thank you, Miss Joy."

After Ash and the other two went to see the venue, they bought an ice cream each on the side of the road and started eating. A boy asked,"Excuse me, are you contestants in the Whirlpool Islands Tournament?""

Miss said,"Yes!"

The boy suddenly seemed to have found a savior and begged,"Can you please let my Fishcannon fight your Pokémon?""

Gon said to the boy,"The preliminaries will start tomorrow, so you should give the Pokémon a rest! Why are you looking for a trainer to fight your Fishcannon now?"

The boy said,"Actually.........I want to evolve my mullet before tomorrow's game, so that I can improve my strength."

Xiaoxia said:"In this case, I will fight with you! But this place doesn't seem to be suitable for fighting!" The boy thanked:"Sister, thank you! I have a suitable place!"

The group followed the boy to a bay, and several people introduced themselves to each other on the way. The boy's name is Hachiro. There are many protruding pillar-like rocks eroded by waves in the bay. The boy said:"The terrain here is very similar to a formal battle site. Sister Xiaoxia, let's use the preliminary competition method, one-on-one."

Xiaoxia said:"No problem! I'll use it, go to Sun Coral"

【Iron Cannon Fish】

【Attribute: Water】

【Gender: Male】

【Features: Sniper (When hitting the vital point, the power will become stronger)】

【Strength: Ordinary Advanced]

Xiaogang said:"Although the strength of the scorpionfish is stronger, Xiaoxia's sun coral can self-recover and mirror reflection."

Xiaozhi said:"There is actually no need to finish this game. This scorpionfish is about to evolve." Xiaozhi has already seen that Hachiro's scorpionfish is only one battle away from evolving.

"Iron Cannon Fish, use the water gun first!"

The Iron Cannon Fish jumped out of the sea and sprayed water at the sun coral.

"Sun coral, mirror reflection!"

The body of the sun coral was covered with pale yellow light, and the water gun bounced back. The water gun with double the power that bounced back hit the iron cannon fish.

"This time I'll attack first, Sun Coral Crash!"

The Sun Coral quickly moved across the sea, ramming the Iron Cannon Fish with its entire body.

"Get out of the way, scorpionfish.

The scorpionfish dived into the sea, avoiding the attack of the sun coral. The scorpionfish took advantage of the situation and rode on the waves.

"The scorpionfish used the water gun.

The scorpionfish used the water gun again at the speed of the waves.

"Sun Coral used the water ring to block the water gun."

Sun Coral's body covered the water ring and blocked the water gun of the iron cannon fish. The iron cannon fish's body then emitted an evolutionary light, and the iron cannon fish evolved into an octopus barrel

"Octopus Barrel uses Octopus Barrel Cannon.

Octopus Barrel also moves, quickly approaches Sun Coral, and sprays ink at its face.

"Sun Coral, self-recovery!"

Sun Coral closed its eyes, used self-recovery, restored its strength, and quickly shook off the ink of Octopus Barrel on its face.

Xiaogang stopped the battle:"Okay, let's stop here. If we continue to fight, we won't have the energy to face the Pokémon in tomorrow's preliminaries."

Balang hugged the evolved Octopus Barrel excitedly and said gratefully:"Sister Xiaoxia, thank you!"

Xiaoxia said:"It's okay, and thank you for giving me a chance to train. My Sun Coral has only been captured for a few days, and our cooperation is not very tacit."

Balang was surprised and said:"Really? Sister Xiaoxia, you are very strong! Although your Sun Coral is not as strong as my Octopus Barrel, you will definitely win if we keep fighting like this." Xiaoxia said

:"Thank you for the compliment!"

Xiaogang smiled and looked at Xiaozhi, and said:"It's true that your fighting style is becoming more and more like someone else's."

The preliminaries started on time the next day. Xiaozhi's main force in the preliminaries was Crocodile. Other water-type Pokémon would have a chance to play after entering the finals! Xiaozhi won both preliminaries effortlessly, and so did Xiaoxia. Both of them successfully entered the list of tomorrow's finals.

It's a pity that Hachiro lost in the preliminaries.

There are many powerful trainers, and those who can enter the finals are Pokémon with elite strength or above.

Hachiro was not discouraged and decided to challenge again in three years.

During this period, he will train his Octopus Bucket well.

In the evening, Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia participated in the opening ceremony of the Whirlpool Islands Tournament.

The prize of this tournament is the Mysterious Water Drop, which can increase the power of the Pokémon's water-type special moves by 20%.

The finals of the Whirlpool Islands Tournament are about to begin.
