Dual-career Pokémon trainer

Green Town is a small town located at one end of the Kalu Tunnel.

Although this place is close to Chimney Mountain, the volcanic ash from Chimney Mountain will not blow here due to the wind direction.

On the contrary, because it is close to Chimney Mountain, it is always spring-like here, and the trees and grass are extremely lush.

The air remains fresh all year round, so it is also a good place for many elderly people or patients to recuperate.

In addition, this is a shortcut to Kanaz City. Although it is just a small town, there are quite a few people coming and going.

Of course, today it seems to be a little bit more.

"Welcome everyone!

I am Vivian, the host of this event."

"The Pokémon Contest Green Competition has finally begun!

In this stage full of natural atmosphere, the coordination trainer who beautifully wins the championship will also receive rewards from this competition.

That is the green ribbon badge!

Now, let's invite our coordination trainers from all over the world to present us with a colorful performance!"

As expected, she is the exclusive host of the Hoenn region’s Grand Contest.

Vivian had already aroused the emotions of the audience and even the contestants just after she appeared on the stage.

After introducing three more unshakable judges, Vivian's arm waved gently and the first contestant appeared on stage.

"Let's play our fiery dance, gala gala!"

The first person to appear was a dark-skinned boy wearing a short-sleeved shirt.

As the Poké Ball was thrown, the first thing that caught everyone's attention was the slender object that flew out from the light on the side.

Then the flying force continued to rotate, and the originally long object now looked like a pure white jade plate, but if you look closely you can also see green flames burning on it.

No, it’s not like, it’s a green flame!

Just when everyone finally reacted, the thrown object had already started spinning and falling under the influence of gravity.

The dark arm with purple color caught it accurately in the center, and the flaming disc finally returned to its original shape.

It was a white bone stick, but it was different from ordinary bone sticks.

Miraculously, blue-green flames were burning at both ends of it.

When those with good eyesight finally saw the object clearly, the bone stick burning with strange flames had already begun to spin again in the purple-black hand.

Flip, jump, and even balance the flaming bone stick on your head.

The strange blue-green light combined with the pure white skull and the black-purple body gives people the feeling that the Pokémon in front of them is performing some kind of strange ritual.

“It appeared! It’s different from the Gala Gala we usually know.

The Gara Gara from the Alola region are performing a sacrificial dance that only they know.

Its unique dance perfectly combines the characteristics of fire and the weirdness of ghosts.

It is clearly a dance of fire, but it gives people a chilling feeling that makes the hairs on their bodies stand on end!

This is a dance of ghosts and fire that is full of contrasts and yet perfectly blended!"

I have to say that Vivian is indeed very experienced.

Although he was a host from the Hoenn region, he recognized the origin of the black Garagara in front of him at a glance.

Thanks to Vivian's explanation, the audience who were originally confused about the image of the Gala Gala suddenly understood, and some were completely immersed in the dance with strange rhythm and light.

...

"Alola region... I remember your Vulpix..."

In the lounge, Lukia glanced thoughtfully at her companion.

Lin Jing just nodded calmly.

“Yes, I captured both Flower Cure Tamaki and Vulpix there.

It is indeed Alola's Galagala.

But they are of fire and ghost attributes.

Come to think of it, I saw the ritual dance of Gala Gala when I was on vacation in Alola."

Watching the dance on TV, Lin Jing seemed to be lost in memories.

He didn't expect to encounter Alola's Pokémon again at the Grand Contest.

Judging from the trainer's skin color and dress, he is most likely a trainer from Alola.

I originally thought that the trainers there rarely left their area.

No... I have the impression that Kukui and Ilima who used Eevee seemed to have traveled to other areas.

Now that I think about it, I'm not so sure anymore.

"It feels so interesting. I want to go to Alola to see the Pokémon there in the future!"

Looking at Gala Gala who was making her curtain call on the screen, there seemed to be a gleam in Lukia's eyes.

"Let's talk about it when the time comes. It's a little too early to think about these things now.

Ms. Lucia, who was almost late for registration."

"What do you mean by late? You are the same!"

Suddenly talking about what happened yesterday, Lukia immediately glared back at Lin Jing.

But this has absolutely no effect on him.

“That’s probably because someone got lost for too long.

Otherwise, why would our time be so stuck? "

Thinking about what happened yesterday, Lin Jing also felt a little excited.

They just managed to reach Green Town yesterday afternoon.

And because today is the competition day, the registration deadline was five o'clock last night.

Fortunately, Xiao Qingqing evolved into Tanabata Bluebird yesterday, allowing Liukia to speed up a lot, otherwise she would probably not be able to participate in this competition at all.

(Of course, although this is what she said, Lin Jing actually had a backup plan to let Arcanine hurry on.)

"Didn't we agree not to mention this matter?"

Lucia was also annoyed when the old things were brought up again, but her appearance when she put on an angry posture was actually more playful and cute.

"Well, let's watch the game and see the game."

After the teasing, Lin Jing had no intention of teasing Lukia any further, but just nodded at the TV.

Then he shook his head slightly.

It's a bit of a pity.

Although it has the style and characteristics of Alola Gala.

However, I don’t know if this trainer from Alola still has some deviations in his understanding of the Grand Prix.

The opponent's display of the Gara Gara move was almost non-existent.

Therefore, the score obtained was not as high as expected.

Unless the contestants this time are relatively weak, it will be difficult for this person to enter the second round of review.

Obviously, if we talk about being handsome and strong, he performed very well.

But in the end, he failed because he failed to show his own moves.

I guess this trainer thinks that the Grand Contest is a pure performance type similar to the Pokémon Circus.

It’s a bit regrettable. I thought if possible, Riolu could learn how to use the bone stick in advance.

Although Lin Jing is still worried about the future of her Riolu, the first round of review is still ongoing.

After more than a dozen people came down, it was finally their turn.

"Don't lose in the first round."

Looking at Lukia who was about to leave, Lin Jing smiled and waved.

"Huh, I won't!

I will definitely defeat you this time!"

"I hope so."

With a casual shrug, Lukia disappeared from Lin Jing's sight.

His eyes returned to the screen, but Lin Jing was muttering to himself.

“I didn’t say that.

After all, the body has grown so much, and it just evolved yesterday.

Little Qingqing doesn’t have much time to adapt, Lukia.”

On the screen, the performance on the stage ended again.

A familiar figure of Lin Jing appeared on the stage.
