It all started with Team Rocket

United Region, Raven City

"Champion Adek, the elves of Yacar Forest have started to riot for some reason and are attacking the defenses outside the forest. Please go to support as soon as possible."

Adek, who had just served as a judge and participated in a large-scale elf battle celebration, was about to go to the theme park in Raven City when his communicator rang.

"I know, I'll rush there right now!"

Adek's tone was serious. His responsibilities and mission as a regional champion made him quickly cancel his plan to visit the park.

……

Galar Region, Island of Armor

"Emperor Dan, come here, this little fire dragon is your initial elf. You have to get along well with it and work hard to become stronger together~"

Ma Shide greeted Dan Emperor in the distance, and then handed over the elf ball in his hand.

"Wow~~! Haha! I have an elf~ I have an elf! Haha~"

Emperor Dan was very excited to get the initial elf, and he shouted happily while holding the elf.

Ma Shide squinted his eyes and looked at it with a smile.Dandi is the most talented child he has ever seen. While he still has energy, he plans to train Dandi and prepare him to take over his championship position in the future.

……

The older generation of trainers are still active on the stage of the times, and the new generation of trainers are also growing rapidly.This magnificent era is slowly beginning.

Yushi, who is still on Honglian Island, certainly doesn't know what is happening elsewhere. He is still organizing the elves to do the final training, because the "First Honglian Hot Spring Cup Elf Battle Competition" will start tomorrow.

The next day, amidst the sound of salutes and fireworks all over the sky, the Elf Battle Competition on Honglian Island finally opened grandly.

"Nidoran, one hundred thousand volts!"

"Bibi Bird, avoid the shadow clone! Then fight back with the violent wind~"

"Blizzard, then dig!"

Under Yushi's command, Nidoran used Blizzard on the spot, and then dug a hole and hid underground before the violent storm hit.

When the freezing blizzard met the violent wind, it became even more powerful, being carried by the violent wind and spreading to the entire place.

The howling cold wind mixed with snowflakes dispersed all Bibi Bird's clones on the field, and Bibi Bird itself also suffered a certain amount of damage.

"Bibi Bird, hot wind! Blow them all away!"

Nidoran hid underground and started to strengthen himself with skills such as instant amnesia and energy gathering according to the little routine that Yushi had thought of in advance.

"Nidoran, one hundred thousand volts!"

Youshi commanded Nidoran to poke his head out of the cave entrance, and then used a hundred thousand volt attack to attack Bibi Bird, who was in a state of embarrassment after being hit by the snowstorm.

"Bibi Bird, protect!"

The opponent's trainer asked Bibi Bird to use protection at the critical moment to block the attack.

"Nidoran, do it again, one hundred thousand volts!"

Youshi knows that protection cannot always be effective during a battle. Except for the first time, the subsequent success rate will plummet.

"Bibi Bird, use..."

"Bi~jiu!"

The opponent's trainer wanted to instruct the Bibi bird to fight back, but the dazzling electric current had already hit the Bibi bird first, causing the Bibi bird great pain.

"Pursuit of victory, Nidoran, freezing ray!"

"Wow!"

Before Bibi Bird could recover from the electric current, the biting cold quickly enveloped it. It chirped unwillingly, then lost consciousness and fell to the battlefield.

"Bibi Bird lost the ability to fight, and Yushi Okita won the victory and advanced to the top 32!"

The referee on the sidelines stared at Bibi Bird for a while, and then announced.

"Come back, Bibiniao~Thank you for your hard work."

The young man named Xiaoyou took back the elf in despair, and then left silently.

In contrast, Yushi and Nidoran could only celebrate happily.

"Great, Nidoran, we advance! Haha~"

"Woof~woo~"

Youshi looked at the sky and saw that it was almost evening.After a simple opening ceremony this morning, the battle began quickly.Due to the large number of contestants, an audition had to be temporarily added.

All registered players compete one-on-one in a double-elimination mode. The winner advances to the winner's group, and the loser enters the loser's group for a last-ditch battle, and the top 32 are finally determined.

Tomorrow will start a 32-to-[-] competition. Each player will use two elves to determine the winner, and the same will be true for the subsequent [-]-to-[-] games.Only after reaching the top eight will the three elves be used.

"We don't have any games today. I'll take you to the Elf Center to recover and heal, and then we'll have a big dinner to celebrate!"

After saying that, Yushi took back Nidoran, then turned and walked towards the elf center.

After the treatment, Youshi took the elves to a restaurant called "Four Seasons Like Spring" on the street for dinner, and happened to meet Qinghui Shisan who was also eating.

Under Qinghui Shisan's warm invitation, Youshi refused and chose to share the table with him.

"Yushi, you also participated in this competition, right? You should have reached the top 32, right?"

Although Qinghui Thirteen was asking, his tone was quite certain.

"Well, of course. It's rare to encounter such an event where I can fight against various opponents. I am eager to fight against strong opponents, which will make me progress faster."

"I'm also participating. Yushi, let's show off in the competition this time!"

Qinghui Thirteen said happily, but his tone was a little strange.

"Okay, but what's wrong with you? You're so solemn all of a sudden." Youshi was slightly puzzled, and then asked.

"Hey~" Qinghui Thirteen sighed softly, then picked up the drink on the table and took a sip before speaking.

"My father has helped me contact the Weather Research Institute in the Fengyuan area and asked me to go there to exchange and study."

Two lines of tears slowly flowed from the corners of his eyes. In order to help his father, Qinghui Shisan chose to obey his father's arrangement and gave up the elf battle he loved more, and instead became a researcher.

The atmosphere suddenly became dull, and Youshi didn't know how to comfort him.In the end, Qinghui Shisan recovered on his own.

"It's okay, don't worry about me, I won't give up on the elf battle. I will surprise you in this competition."

"Okay, then let's have a good fight!"

After that, the atmosphere gradually improved due to the deliberate activity of the two people, but the sadness of parting still lingered in Youshi's heart.

After parting ways with Qinghui Shisan, Yushi walked alone on the way back to the gym.The cold moonlight shone on Youshi's body, cutting off the noise and impetuosity of the busy neighborhood, making him completely calm.

"No matter what happens, you will always stay with me, right?" Youshi gently stroked the elf ball on his waist.

The elves seemed to feel Yushi's whisper, and they shook the spheres one after another. Feeling this, Yushi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and then walked all the way to the gym.
