Elf: This little Mao is very different.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our Wudou Town's annual fishing competition!"

Time soon came to the day of the fishing competition. Xiao Mao, Mei and Toru, who participated in the competition, stood among the nearly dozens of people participating in the competition, quietly watching the words being announced by the host on the podium.

"The rules of today's fishing competition are the same as before. The competition time limit is three hours, and the competition location is in the fish pond right in front of us.

Contestants can fish for elves in this pond within the specified time, and can only choose one elf to participate in the final elf selection. Whoever has the best elf will become the champion!"

"Oh oh oh!"

After hearing the rules announced by the host, people on the venue cheered.

After a pause, the host continued, "In order to maintain the absolute fairness of this fishing competition, we have invited several referees to judge the elves caught by the contestants.

These referees are our Fighting Gym's trainer Fujiki, the Pokémon Center's Miss Joy, and our Fighting Town's Miss Junsha!"

Under the host's announcement, Fujishu, Miss Joy and Miss Junsha all stood up one by one and bowed to everyone present.

Among them, Fujiki, the trainer of the Budo Gym, stood up and expressed on behalf of the referees that the judging this time would definitely be very fair.

"It's about to start. I'm so excited!" Mei became eager to try after seeing the competition about to begin.

"Keep calm, Mei, or you won't catch any fish."

Seeing Mei unable to contain herself, Touko reminded her helplessly.

"I understand." Although Mei also responded, it is unknown whether she heard it or not.

In the end, the host did not disappoint Mei's expectations. After introducing the three referees, the host took the microphone and shouted to all the participants: "Now I declare that this year's Wudou Town fishing competition has officially begun!"

After the start of the competition was announced, all the contestants, including Xiao Mao and the other two, carried the fishing rods provided for the competition and walked towards the fish pond used for the competition.

After arriving at the fish pond, Mei noticed that on the river bank, every few meters, there was a contestant taking a position and preparing for fishing.

"There are too many people here!" Looking at the many contestants standing by the river, Mei felt a headache immediately. Then she turned around and asked Xiao Mao who was following behind her: "Xiao Mao, where should we choose to go fishing?"

"Let's go a little further away. There are too many people here. It's not suitable for fishing. Let's go to the other side of the river."

Xiao Mao looked at the many people standing by the river, then glanced at the few people on the opposite bank, so he made a suggestion to Mei and Toruko.

"It can only be the."

Because Xiao Mao and his two companions were the last in line, there were no more seats near the river bank, so they had no choice but to choose that place.

There are few people on the other side of the river. The only drawback is that the journey is a bit far and takes time.

"There are too many people here. I'm afraid we won't be able to catch a good elf. Those smart people will choose a place with fewer people, so that place is suitable for us."

Er Er Touzi also pointed at some people who, like them, did not choose a nearby fishing spot, but spent some time and chose a more remote place.

"That's right, let's go!"

After hearing what Xiaomao and Toruko said, Mei also felt that it made sense, so she agreed.

"it is good!"

Now that they had chosen the fishing spot, Xiao Mao and his friends set off immediately and walked towards their reserved location.

"finally reached."

After spending nearly half an hour, Xiao Mao, Mei, and Toruko arrived at the other side of the river.

"Let's choose to fish here!"

Xiao Mao looked around and found that there was no one around, then he spoke to Mei and Toruko.

"it is good!"

After Mei and Toruko agreed, the two girls took the lead over Xiaomao and started fishing.

"You two didn't even wait for me."

Xiao Mao looked at the two women who had already started to take action, and pointed at them helplessly.

"Hey, we are rivals now. I won't give in to you."

After hearing what Xiaomao said, Mei prepared the bait and said to Xiaomao with a smile.

Although Touko didn't say anything, her smiling eyes expressed the same meaning.

"It's not like whoever is faster will win. Maybe I will be the winner in the end!"

While Xiao Mao was tidying up his fishing rod, he challenged Mei and Touko to a fight.

"Then let's give it a try."

After saying this, Mei had already placed the bait and threw the hook into the pond.

Toruko was only one step slower than Mei and also threw the baited fishing hook into the river.

"I'm fine here too!"

Xiao Mao was still a few minutes later than Mei and Toruko, and was the last person to throw the fishing hook into the pond.

After throwing the fishhook into the pond, the only thing to do now is to wait patiently.

But after waiting for just a short while, the impatient Mei couldn't bear it any longer.

"Fish, fish, when will you take the bait?"

Mei was humming boredly while staring at the fishing rod. From her expression, one could tell that she was already a little impatient.

"Mei, you have to stay quiet when fishing, or you won't get the bait."

Looking at Mei who kept muttering, Xiao Mao felt helpless but still reminded her.

"Ok."

After hearing Xiaomao's words, Mei nodded and then closed her mouth. After all, she was very eager to win this fishing competition.

After Mei stopped muttering, Xiao Mao continued to look at his fishing rod, quietly waiting for the elf to take the bait.

Just a few minutes had passed, Mei suddenly screamed, attracting the attention of Xiao Mao and Toruko.

"An elf has taken the bait!"

Xiao Mao and Touzi immediately looked in the direction of the sound and saw Mei's fishing rod shaking constantly, which was a clear sign that a Pokémon had taken the bait.

"It looks like Mei has taken the lead first!"

Looking at his fishing rod that didn't move at all, Touzi could only sigh helplessly.

"Mei, look quickly, what kind of elf is that?"

At Xiaomao's urging, Mei immediately picked up the fishing rod and started fishing out the elves in the water.

As Mei exerted force suddenly, a figure appeared in everyone's sight.

"that is……"
