Pokémon: Trainers start as bounty hunters

The flame chicken ran happily on the mountain road. Its long legs were extremely powerful. It could reach Zheya in two steps with just one step.

As a fire and fighting type elf, the Flame Chicken itself is extremely energetic. Even if it is not trained, it is constantly exercising every day, not to mention that the Flame Chicken itself is an elf who loves running.

This kind of running life is really suitable for it.

This journey was actually very boring for Tetsuya and Flame Rooster. Apart from the staff in the broadcast vehicle in front of them, there were only scattered people following the torch relay in the distance. Even those who were far away could not communicate with each other.

The only thing they had to do was to maintain their image and keep running until they were about five kilometers away from the Quartz Arena, where there would be groups of contestants or spectators coming to watch the conference cheering and celebrating for them around the main road.

It was very peaceful along the way, so peaceful that Zheya couldn't believe it.

Although there are very few people from dark organizations who come to snatch the Holy Fire without opening their eyes, there are also a lot of people who live and die every year.

You know, the purchase price of the flame bird's fire seeds is enough to drive people crazy.

Not to mention the previous actions of Team Rocket on the Twin Islands, which means that the largest dark organization in the two regions of Kanto City is also interested in the genes of the Three Divine Birds.

Unless they additionally find the existence of Flame Birds and Lightning Birds, this is not impossible.

The strength of the three divine birds is at the bottom among the divine beasts, and their numbers are not so rare that there are only one or two. They just live alone in various dangerous places and are protected by elves around them, making them difficult to find.

With Team Rocket's ability and member distribution, if you are determined to find it, it will not be as difficult as climbing to the sky.

Zheye had a mechanical smile on his face, his whole body was running mechanically, and he was constantly thinking in his heart.

It was a good thing for him that no one came to snatch the torch. At least he didn't need to deal with many unexpected situations envisaged in the previous meeting, which made it easier.

You can't just hope that something will happen.

He was thinking boringly.

Speaking of which, it is time to arrange the elves that will appear in the qualifiers. It is best to let all the elves appear and get used to the atmosphere, including the armored tyrannosaurus and the leaf elves.

Otherwise, if there is no preparation or habit at all, and tens of thousands or even 50,000 or even 50,000 people are watching the main game or the main venue battle, it will be difficult not to be nervous even if you are as nervous as an elf.

That kind of noise and atmosphere cannot be easily tolerated. Every year, many new trainers' elves make mistakes and make many jokes.

Although they quickly adjusted, not many people were willing to experience this kind of social death scene.

The whole race will be broadcast live in the region and even the world at the beginning of the race. You don't know how many people your embarrassing situation will enter into the memory of.

Zhe is also thinking about it.

According to the format of the qualifiers, each trainer will compete in ten 1v1 battles. Whether you can enter the main game depends on your victory number.

There are more than 10,000 participating trainers, and only the top 1,024 trainers with the most wins are eligible to enter the main competition and start the single-round knockout competition in four attribute venues.

Ten games and eight elves are naturally more than enough.

But we also have to take into account the more bizarre situations.

For example, if he met three or four trainers with quasi-King-level elves in a row, and had to send out the Eagle and the Flame Chicken to fight in order to win, this might cause one or two elves to lose their place in the qualifying round.

Chance.

In the history of the league competition, there are no powerful trainers who have been so unlucky.

Although the league's qualifying competition system has largely avoided the impact of luck and focused more on strength, you must know that the luck of some non-Emirates and European emperors does not matter how you determine it.

In other words, this is actually the intention of the alliance. Otherwise, in the background, they can completely set up so that trainers with a certain level of elf strength cannot be randomly matched to the battle.

Luck is also a very important part of the adventure between trainers and elves.

Some trainers accidentally entered the ruins and obtained the elves' training methods and various rare resources; some elves occasionally broke into the territory of powerful elves, gained guidance, and became stronger.

There are also trainers and elves who face the same situation and gain nothing or even end up losing their lives. This is possible.

Even if the strength of the former is temporarily inferior to that of the latter, under the influence of two completely different fortunes, it is difficult to say what the future results of the two will be.

The competition system of the conference is to select a group of relatively outstanding people. In addition to outstanding strength, if your luck is also different from ordinary people, then it is entirely possible for you to become a powerful trainer in the future, and the alliance will naturally not mind you.

Enter the public eye.

Anyway, if you have strong luck but no corresponding strength, the main competition will basically be the limit, and reaching the top 64 will be an unattainable dream.

And if you are strong enough, even a little bit of luck will not affect the result.

Zhe also felt that his luck was a bit bad, but definitely not to the point of being ridiculously bad.

The number of trainers who have more than one quasi-King-level elf in the entire conference does not exceed three figures, and the proportion is probably less than one percent.

The probability of being randomly assigned to four digits is already less than one in a billion. Basically, the probability of picking up a mythical beast while walking on the road is similar to this.

If this kind of luck is true, Tetsuya really has to think carefully about whether he will use ordinary red and white Poké Balls to directly conquer Arceus who is full of physical strength in the future.

If this were not the case, past data would not show that basically only three or more elite-level elves can enter the main competition. Of course, the attributes of the three here should be different and the level should be higher.

It is difficult to meet strong people in a row, but it is common to meet trainers who suppress a single attribute in a row. When the strength is not much different, attributes basically represent everything.

Master of reverse attributes, the key to this title is not the first three words.

Tetsuya hesitated for a moment, forget it, when the time comes to randomly match opponents, let's let Pokoji go up.

Anyway, he just needs to win ten consecutive victories, Zheya thought.

The format of the qualifiers seems simple, but is actually quite complicated. The whole process will last about a month.

In addition to the affordability of various institutions such as the Elf Center and the Referee Association, various issues must be considered.

The simplest thing is what to do if there are more players with ten consecutive wins than the 1024 main draw spots.

From a probability perspective, those who enter the main competition should be trainers who meet the requirements and rank in the top 10% overall, so it is enough to keep the number of wins at eight or nine.

This is indeed true for most conference data.

But accidents are unavoidable. In more than a hundred conferences, this simple problem has only appeared once or twice, not to mention other problems such as winning the same game.

Of course, at this time, the alliance will carry out some intervention, and the basis will naturally be strength.

Usually, trainers with elves with quasi-king level are randomly drawn to fight against other trainers, eliminating those who lack strength and are less lucky.

It can be said that the elites in these conferences have become tool men before they officially play for the alliance.

…………

February 10th.

An ordinary day that attracts much attention.

On this day, the opening ceremony of this quartz conference is about to be held.

Registration will close by noon.

Of course, not many trainers would be stuck at this point in time to confirm, most of them had already completed their registration.

At this time, the lively scene in the player hall in the past two or three days was completely gone.

"Hey, I really want to watch the torch relay live!"

Miss Joy, who was sticking to her posts, was chatting.

"There's nothing we can do about it, our shift just happened to be ours~"

A Ms. Joy replied that there was a live broadcast of the torch relay on the computer in front of her.

"Fortunately, I can still watch the live broadcast, otherwise it would be too boring."

Not only her, but the other Miss Joy was also paying more or less attention.

Although the torch relay happens every year, it does not affect their attention to this great runner every year.

As members of the alliance's mainstay family, they understand the meaning of this more than more people.

"This must be the talented civilian trainer that cousin Xiaojun discovered back then. He's really handsome."

This is how they sighed.

As early as the day Tetsuya became a Holy Fire Runner, his information was dug out by many interested people.

These are not particularly secretive things, and Tetsuya is not a wild man who has left the social life of the Alliance.

Not to mention the various things he has done this year, there are only a few things that are related to Low-key. They are just scattered. If you don't pay special attention, you really don't know if they are done by the same person.

His entire resume looks like one can only lament that this is another future for the league.

Many people lamented that it is no wonder that the alliance specially selected him to be the flame runner this time, and it was not just because he was born in Tokiwa.

Even if it were another city as the penultimate stop, the league would probably have countless arguments for him to become a flame runner.

This is a replica of Du, even if one does not consider family background, Zhe is still above Du.

Before Tetsuya knew it, he had a large number of fans everywhere.

His sunny, cheerful and handsome side as he passed on the Holy Fire, his super-talented side as a trainer, breeder and even researcher, and his extremely harmonious and fettered side with the elves that are visible to the naked eye, can be said to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people under the propaganda of the alliance.

In just two and a half days, it can be said that I attracted countless fans.

"Aren't you a little impatient?"

Looking at President Damalanqi in front of him, who was browsing the comments about Tetsuya on various forums, with no mood swings in his body, his secretary asked.

"The league has lacked an outstanding young man who can lead the times in the past ten years."

President Damalanqi said so.

The group of people who passed through are actually quite young, and their influence on the new generation who have not yet grown up, such as Xiaozhi and Xiaomao, is actually not that great.

It’s more about the alliance’s publicity.

Because the younger members of the alliance only know about their achievements from words, but have not actually witnessed them.

Watching the video and experiencing it in person are completely different feelings.

They didn't see the transition, Shiba, and Kona competing against powerful opponents in various conferences, or even in the King Challenge.

The alliance needs people like Tetsuya so that more people can take the path of trainers so that it can develop better.

"Besides, you may have underestimated this child."

President Damalanqi said to his confidants that even though he had only met him for a short time, he saw many qualities similar to those of Watari and others in Tetsuya.

Naturally, the secretary didn't know what the president was thinking, but considering the high praise that various characters had for Tetsuya, he didn't express his worries anymore.

He looked at the time and followed President Damalanchi out of the door.

At this time, the atmosphere around the Quartz Plateau had become extremely lively.

The noisy voices of the trainers and spectators who got up early had already resounded throughout the Quartz Plateau.

Everyone is eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Holy Fire.

In fact, since the day before yesterday, when Tetsuya set off, various officially organized activities and even private parades and carnivals have been going on, and the atmosphere has never calmed down.

But today, the lively atmosphere has reached its peak.

When the beautifully decorated broadcast truck appeared in front of everyone with President Damalanqi on it, the cheers were deafening.

This old man deserves such praise.

Damalanqi smiled and waved his hands around.

But soon, his limelight was stolen.

The flames of the flame bird are burning brightly on the exquisite torch, and the red and yellow colors make the cheers even louder.

Zheye wore a slightly shy smile and continued to run at a constant speed with the flame chicken next to him.

"Peng"

Not far away, special fireworks were being set off over the circular quartz arena, which were clearly visible even in the daytime.

This is the magic of elven power.

As the sacred fire entered the passage, the atmosphere gradually calmed down, but this was for a better explosion.

Trainers and spectators in twos and threes, holding limited souvenirs specially made by merchants near the player village, poured into the arena.

Their faces were all slightly flushed.

The Quartz Plateau, which should have been slightly cold at this time, couldn't help but start to feel hot because of this atmosphere.

Tetsuya looked down from the exclusive passage for the Holy Fire, and saw the trainers entering with different postures.

Some had red faces and were moving forward on their hands and feet, while others had upper bodies that were so stiff that they were as stiff as ice cubes.

Even with Zheye's excellent eyesight, he could tell that many people's hands and feet were trembling. Of course, they were not cold, but excited.

He took a deep breath, and the Flame Chicken stood next to him, imitating the same action.

Tetsuya grinned.

Looking down again, his eyes were full of fighting spirit. Those trainers who looked calm and indifferent must be powerful "senior" trainers who had participated in more than one competition.

He couldn't wait to fight them.

"Next, let us turn our attention to the 12,956 outstanding trainers who signed up to participate in the Quartz Conference.

Each of them is a powerful trainer who has collected eight official gym badges from Kanto. In the next nearly two months, they will bring the ultimate visual and auditory feast to everyone!"

The commentator spoke excitedly, accompanied by deafening cheers, some of which were hard to hear clearly.
