Dawn of Pokémon

Rainbow City [Japanese: タマムシシティ, Tamamushi_City, English: Celadon_City] is located in the middle of the Kanto region, west of Golden City, and is one of the three super metropolises in the Kanto region.

Although the size of the city is not inferior to that of Golden City, Rainbow City gives people a completely different feeling from Golden City.When you step into the city, your eyes are filled with deep green. From time to time, lively wild Pokémon run across the rooftops, as vivid and lovely as the flowers blooming on the green leaves.

"A rich rainbow-colored city, where people and Pokémon gather" - this is the sentence printed on the front page of Rainbow City's tourist guide book.Rainbow City attaches great importance to the relationship between people and Pokémon, and urban construction is not like the Golden City that blindly piles up high-rise buildings.The dark green roofs of a unified tone make the buildings of different shapes appear harmonious and unified, and even in the downtown area, there are still ancient wooden buildings among the high-rise buildings.

The dark green color that is the city’s symbolic color comes from the city’s name.

The meaning of the word "rainbow" can be traced back from its pronunciation. It can be seen that it originally refers to Tamamushi_Iro, which is the iridescent glow emitted by a gem beetle.Gem beetles reflect a variety of colors, the most obvious of which is deep green.

There is no doubt that this is an ancient and obscure meaning.However, unlike other cities that are developing too fast, the residents of Rainbow City have obviously not forgotten why their city got its name.

Many store signs have colorful beetle designs carved on them.They are proud of the city where they were born and worked, and even hope that all their assets will have the imprint of the Rainbow City.

When Jinhuang City aroused public indignation due to the forced demolition of the historically protected building "Risheng Pavilion", it was its western neighbor city that many scholars used as a comparative case.Rainbow City has always attached great importance to the exploration of humanities and history. Even after several industrial revolutions and advancing with the wave of economic development, it still struggled to maintain what it should be—neither humble nor arrogant, but with a steady pace.

The east part of the city is an old city with a history of hundreds of years, which is still completely preserved and has extremely high historical value.Citizens of Rainbow City renovated and reused old buildings without losing their original charm, completing the perfect blend of modern culture and ancient history.

People living in the old city always boast to travelers about the houses they live in and the city they live in - these traces of history are their pride.

There are many flower shops in Rainbow City, and all kinds of flowers are planted in roadside flower beds.However, unlike the tourist city Hualan City, Rainbow City is graceful and beautiful decorated with flowers. The fragrance of plants and wooden buildings blend together to form a faint bookish atmosphere.

Although it is a bustling super metropolis, Rainbow City is an unexpectedly calm place.

Of course, there is another important element in building Rainbow City’s rich cultural atmosphere.

school.

If Mihara City, the capital city, is the first cultural center in the Kanto region, then Rainbow City is the well-deserved second.Whether they are ordinary middle schools or colleges or trainer training academies, they are all located at a high density in Rainbow City, and the focus of teaching in nearly half of the schools is on the research and exploration of Pokémon-related knowledge.In today's Pokémon Society, many famous researchers graduated from universities in Rainbow City, and annual academic seminars are often held in Rainbow City.

Therefore, Rainbow City has another name - "Academic City".

The "Green Field Cup" exhibition competition that Xiaoye intends to participate in will be held at Rainbow Primary School in the north of the city.After entering the city from the old city in the east of the city, Xiao Ye followed the guidance of the electronic map and headed towards its location.

The Green Field Cup Exhibition Tournament is held at Rainbow Primary School on March 3 and September 9 every year. This year is already the 9th edition.Different from ordinary arena matches, since it is called an "exhibition match", its main significance is to showcase trainers' skills in commanding Pokémon to fight and how to get along with Pokémon.

The recipients of the "display" are many primary school students under the age of ten, mainly students from Rainbow Primary School.

Speaking of Rainbow Elementary School, its full name is "Rainbow Public University Elementary School" and it is a well-known school in the entire Kanto region.

Rainbow Public University is a paradise for world-famous Pokémon scholars. The famous Pokémon researcher Dr. Oak graduated from here. After becoming famous, he served as a lecturer at Rainbow University for more than ten years.Rainbow University focuses on the relationship between people and Pokémon. It is the only university that is not a training academy for trainers, but requires that applicants must be trainers.

Its affiliated elementary school also inherits the style of Rainbow University, attaches great importance to the communication between students and Pokémon, and concentrates on cultivating elite talents in Pokémon science.

Most children under the age of ten do not have Pokémon of their own, and their contact with them can only rely on relevant primary school courses.In order to allow students to learn more about and come into contact with real Pokémon and learn about trainer professions in advance, Rainbow Primary School established the Green Field Cup Exhibition Tournament to attract trainers to compete against each other and allow students to get a closer look. More Types of Pokémon opportunities.

Although it has a long history, the Green Field Cup Exhibition Tournament is not a well-known event, and the number of trainers who come to participate is far less than that of major leagues.Since it is of a display nature, fierce duels are rarely seen in the arena, and most of the participants are young trainers with low levels of qualifications.

The rules of the Green Field Cup Exhibition Competition are very loose. There is no need to register before the competition, and an arena challenge system is implemented.Trainers can challenge any opponent in the ring, and after winning, they can stay in the ring until they lose to other challengers.Of course, trainers who are defeated can still launch new challenges.

The prize money for this kind of communication event is naturally not high. The prize money for winning a game is 800pd. If you fail, you need to pay the same amount of fine.The combination of various factors makes the atmosphere of the Green Field Cup competition always relaxed and comfortable. Both the trainers participating in the competition and the students watching the competition can communicate in a peaceful atmosphere.

When the event comes to an end, the owner of the Rainbow Gym, Li Jia, will come to communicate with the students and have a friendly match with the trainer with the most wins.This is also one of the reserved programs of the Green Field Cup exhibition games over the years.

When Xiaoye stepped into the gate of Rainbow Primary School, this formerly quiet primary school was already surrounded by bustling crowds.The number of trainers participating in the past Green Field Cup is about one hundred, and there is enough fighting space in the sports field of Rainbow Primary School. Compared with the trainers, there are more young spectators from various elementary schools.

"Ba Dadie, use the wind!"

"Nidorino, give it a wild shot!"

"Hehe, three consecutive victories achieved."

"Does anyone else want to challenge me——"

The shouts of the teenagers echoed in the vast sports ground, making people unconsciously infected by the fiery atmosphere.

Battle arenas with standard specifications are located in the sports field.Most of the arena was already being used, and the sound of explosions from the impact of moves could be heard all the time.

Around the ring, short children in school uniforms stood around, staring at the battle scene with wide eyes.

Although the battle is not fierce, for these elementary school students who rarely see trainers fighting in person, this is a very rare scene.

Xiaoye walked into the sports field, looking for someone suitable for the challenge.His eyes swept across the field and suddenly stopped in a certain direction.

"Spiny Shell, freeze beam to kill it!"

Following the voice of the green-haired girl's vitality, the spiny shell fired an icy blue beam of light, freezing the Moru Moth into an ice sculpture.

The battle recorder on the sidelines showed the result of the battle.
