Pokémon: Forced to Become a Dragon Master at the Beginning

An action against Sakaki came quietly.

Xia Yu, who is at the center of the vortex, does not know that he has been targeted by two champions, Mayer and Keigo Nishino. He is still busy with his own affairs.

…………

Inside the giant laboratory.

Sylvia looked at Xia Yu unhappily with dark circles under her eyes. In the past month or so, she was really busy and had almost no free time. Not only was she busy with the artificial Pokémon, but she also had to take care of the release of the Gigantamax experiment.

However, Xia Yu was enjoying his life leisurely. Today he accompanied Long Yanning, and tomorrow he played with Su Muzhi. His life was very comfortable.

Of course, Sylvia herself likes this kind of life very much. Doing what you like is worth it even if it is a bit hard and tiring.

"The hype has almost built up, you should start announcing the Gigantamax expansion. I will be participating in the gym leader rankings starting next week, and may not have much time to take care of the laboratory's affairs. If you have any matters, you can discuss and decide on them among yourselves. Come to me if you really need me to make the decision." Xia Yu said, looking at Chi Hanqing and Sylvia in front of him.

Looking at Sylvia's dark circles, Xia Yu paused and said, "You should still take care to rest. Although I know you have a lot of work to do, you should rest when you need to, don't be so anxious."

Sylvia pursed her lips when she heard Xia Yu's words. Just as she was about to speak, Xia Yu anticipated her intention and interrupted her with a wave of his hand: "I will find you a helper as soon as possible."

"Okay." Sylvia swallowed her words halfway through.

At this point, she suddenly remembered something and looked at Xia Yu and said, "Why don't you take care of that Greninja that followed you back? It's been fighting in the back hill of the laboratory."

Listening to what Sylvia said, Xia Yu smiled: "It's okay, let it fight. I can't take care of it for now. It has nothing to do every day, only to find Pokémon to fight."

"It's up to you. It's your Pokémon anyway, as long as you are happy." Sylvia said.

"Anything else?" Xia Yu's eyes fell on Sylvia and Chi Hanqing, and he asked, "Nothing, I'm leaving now."

"No more. Go away."

"Eve, let's go and report to the Pokémon Association."

…………

June.

Midsummer is coming.

The Pokémon Association officially announced that the gym leader ranking competition will officially start next week, and also launched the registration ceremony.

Any Dragon-type trainer who has won the Gym Leader Qualifying Tournament is eligible to participate in this Dragon-type Gym Leader Tournament.

Among many contestants, Xia Yu is undoubtedly the most popular contestant in this gym owner ranking competition, and is also one of the contestants with the highest chance of winning the championship.

Why is it one of them? Because besides Xia Yu, there are two other players who are also the favorites to win the championship.

One of them is the 25-year-old Qin Yuncong who has recently become famous. The other is the 55-year-old Zhao Zhigang.

Both of them are powerful dragon-type trainers with extremely high popularity.

Qin Yuncong has a mysterious origin and a deep background. He also possesses a powerful dragon-type quasi-god Pokémon, the Three-Headed Dragon. He has only suddenly emerged in the past two months and appeared in everyone's vision.

He is also an active member of the Earth Dragon Special Operations Team.

Xia Yu also attached great importance to the sudden emergence of competitors. After making inquiries from many sources, he finally found out Qin Yuncong's true identity.

Qin Yuncong's father was one of the former Four Heavenly Kings of the Dragon System in the Northwest region, and his grandfather was the Dragon Champion of the North China region. He is a typical rich kid.

When he was born, he had a single-headed dragon egg as his initial Pokémon.

It can be said that his starting point is the end point that many people need to struggle for their entire lives.

In addition to the three-headed dragon, he also has many other powerful dragon-type Pokémon, and these Pokémon have been professionally trained and are very powerful.

So even though he is only 25 years old, his strength is comparable to that of a top-level trainer.

Originally, Qin Yuncong had no intention of participating in this gym owner ranking competition. He was taking the path of the special operations team and did not intend to take the path of a gym owner.

Although he came from a wealthy family, Qin Yuncong has been very low-key since he was a child. He did not participate in the college cup competition and was directly admitted to university.

When his strength reached that of a quasi-king level trainer, he was specially recruited into the Earth Dragon Special Operations Team through his family connections.

Qin Yuncong has been carrying out missions in the Earth Dragon Special Operations Team. According to his parents' plan, once his strength reaches the level of a King-level trainer, he will be directly promoted to the team leader of the Earth Dragon Special Operations Team without having to compete for the position of gym leader.

He just needs to accumulate strength and wait until he is powerful enough. Then he can either follow the path of the Pokémon Association or compete for the Four Heavenly Kings.

His options are many.

But... after witnessing the amazing talent displayed by Xia Yu, Qin Yuncong became very interested in Xia Yu.

You have to know that although there are many dragon-type trainers in China, the top dragon-type trainers can be counted on one hand.

This is also because if you want to cultivate dragon-type Pokémon, both money and luck are indispensable.

You need both the luck to obtain a top-notch Dragon-type Pokémon and the financial resources to train one.

This is also why there are almost no dragon-type trainers among ordinary people, and even among ordinary gym leader-level trainers, there are very few dragon-type trainers.

In this world, only the children of big families can afford to train dragon-type trainers.

Just look at the Dragon-type Gym Leaders in various regions and you will know that these Gym Leaders may not be very powerful, but they are all very rich!

It is not easy for Xia Yu to get to where he is today, but this also makes Qin Yuncong curious about Xia Yu.

Especially since Xia Yu was able to reach the same level as himself at the age of 20, Qin Yuncong, who was arrogant by nature and claimed to be a genius, wanted to meet Xia Yu very much.

Of course, what’s more important is that he wants to have a real fight with Xia Yu to see who is the real genius!

…………

Compared with Qin Yuncong, another popular competitor, Zhao Zhigang, is slightly ordinary.

He is 55 years old this year, and it took him almost his entire life to finally get to where he is now.

Many people said that with his talent, if he had chosen to become a fighting or fire-type trainer, he would have already become a top-level trainer long ago, but he chose to take the most difficult path of a dragon-type trainer.

He has been participating in the Gym Master Qualifying Tournament since he was in his thirties and has participated in seven Gym Master Qualifying Tournaments so far. The closest he came to becoming a Gym Master was the last one, but he ultimately lost to Wu Qianshan in the semi-finals and finished third.

If there was no Xia Yu... and no Qin Yuncong, this year would also be his most promising year.

In addition to these two players, there are some other strong opponents, but they are not a threat to Xia Yu.
