Pokémon: Rise of the Orange League

"Hey!" Scorpio gave up lying on the top of his head and stood up, his eyes fixed on the front.

Lu Wu followed his line of sight and saw a group of people gathered in the distance, as if something had happened.

"Scorpio, what did you see?" Lu Wu asked. Although he was much taller than the average person, he still couldn't directly see the situation over there through the crowd.

Scorpio stepped lightly on Lu Wu's head. Then, it spread its wing membrane and flew above the crowd. After circling in the air, Scorpio flew back to Lu Wu.

"Hey!" Scorpio made a cry, trying to tell Lu Wu what it saw. However, for Scorpio, who did not have much experience in urban life, it was not easy to accurately describe what he saw and thought.

Lu Wu shook his head helplessly and decided to go and see for himself. He began to shuttle through the crowd, trying to squeeze to the front.

"Make way, be careful of the boiling water!" Lu Wu shouted loudly, pretending to hold a pot of boiling water in his hand. The people who heard the shouts moved aside in fear, leaving a passage for Luwu.

Luwu took the opportunity to speed up his pace and quickly came to the front of the crowd.

This is a newly opened Pokémon equipment store, with a modern industrial style design. The store displays a wide range of goods, including physical training equipment and various weight-bearing equipment designed specifically for Pokémon. These equipment look brand new and exquisite, and are obviously carefully selected and prepared.

There is a table covered with red cloth at the door of the store, on which several high-priced exercise equipment are displayed. These equipment attracted the attention of many people, but everyone seemed to be deterred by their prices on the shelves.

Next to the table stood a huge billboard with a muscular arm showing bodybuilding movements. The text on the billboard explained the rules of the event: as long as you participate in the competition in the store, you will have the opportunity to win the genuine Pokémon equipment produced by Silver Company as a prize.

It was this news that aroused the interest of the people around, and they began to discuss the possibility of this competition and the value of the prize. Some people were eager to try and expressed their willingness to participate in the competition.

"Competition name: Silver Challenger Cup.

Competition rules: Use intermediate-level Pokémon to register and play singles.

The first prize is a set of brand-new genuine Pokémon training equipment.

The second prize is three kinds of equipment of your choice.

The third prize is a random Pokémon equipment."

Lu Wu carefully observed the decoration style and layout details of the store, and then carefully read the relevant instructions for the competition rewards.

It's a bit difficult.

It turned out that this store, in addition to the genuine Silver Company equipment mentioned in the advertisement, did not display the Silver Company logo anywhere else. What's even more speechless is that the store did not mention whether the second and third prizes were genuine products.

Silver Company is a well-known Pokémon technology company in the Kanto region. It is rumored that it was they who improved the production process of modern Poké Balls and achieved large-scale popularization and application. This innovative move made them earn a lot of money, and then they further expanded their business scope and launched a series of essential items for trainers, such as move learning machines and wound spray.

But Silver Company has always liked to post its company logo everywhere.

It can be seen that this store is obviously using Silver Company's reputation to attract customers, and by holding such a competition, the first place will get genuine prizes to achieve the purpose of publicity and promotion.

"I want to sign up!"

Lu Wu shouted without hesitation.

He carefully observed the equipment displayed on the red cloth. This set of equipment is genuine from Silver Company!

Before, when he was at the Silver Conference Alliance venue, he had seen other trainers using props produced by Silver Company, so now seeing these equipment, he can basically judge that they are absolutely genuine.

"Okay, young man, your number is 16."

The staff member who was responsible for registration sitting behind the table smiled and handed him a card.

"The competition will be held tomorrow morning, at the battle site in the park over there."

Lu Wu took the card and put it in his pocket.

If we order this set of equipment from Silver Company, it will probably cost hundreds of thousands! No wonder there are so many people watching.

Many fledgling trainers showed great interest in this competition. Most of them are financially constrained, and they are in the middle school years, and have not been completely hit by the cruel reality and lost confidence. Therefore, for this kind of competition where they can win props, they all seem to be confident and determined to win.

Lu Wu looks young,The staff also classified him as one of the atmosphere group players.

Although the competition is limited to intermediate-level Pokémon, are the initial Pokémon trained by a fledgling trainer comparable to the experienced trainer's second team members?

After taking Scorpio to stroll around Big City for a while, Lu Wu slowly walked back to the Pokémon Center.

For tomorrow's game, Lu Wu did not plan to give Scorpio any temporary special training.

Since joining the team, he has insisted on completing the training plan formulated by Lu Wu every day. Scorpio's current level is first-class among intermediate Pokémon.

Moreover, Pokémon like Scorpio has excellent combat power in the first form, which is something that those quasi-god Pokémon do not have in the first stage.

Give all Pokémon supplements according to the original plan (Turtle does not have it because its share has been secretly drunk by himself.)

Turn off the lights and go to sleep.

…

In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight poured into the room through the window, Scorpio could not wait to lie on Luwu's face, ready to start its suffocating wake-up service.

Today, Scorpio was particularly excited because it finally had a long-awaited opportunity: to fight against other trainers' Pokémon alone. In the past, his combat experience was either a friendly competition with Nidorino or fighting side by side with his big brothers. Now, he can finally show his true strength.

However, Luwu, who was sleeping, was unaware of it, and only felt that breathing was getting more and more difficult. Between half asleep and half awake, he subconsciously reached out to push Scorpio away from his face, but still felt a little dizzy, and finally struggled to get out of bed.

"No, this habit must be changed!" Luwu said to Scorpio seriously while washing, "Doing oxygen-blocking training every morning, who can stand it?"

Scorpio's unique way of expressing love must be unbearable for most trainers.

After packing up, Luwu arranged for Frog and the others to train at the Pokémon Center. He only brought Scorpio and Armored Bird with him in case of any accidents.

The park where the competition was held had become extremely lively at this moment. The carefully planned publicity activities last night had achieved remarkable results and attracted a lot of attention. This morning, their store decisively rented an advertising car and shuttled through the streets and alleys of the city to continue to promote this event.

Dozens of passionate registered contestants and nearly 500 enthusiastic spectators came to the viewing area carefully built by the store early, looking forward to the start of the competition. The atmosphere was warm, people were talking excitedly, and were full of expectations for the upcoming exciting events.

Luwu arrived late, his number was in the middle, and he was not the first game.
