Chapter 525 Which genius came up with this?  (2 in 1)

...

Natsu was not interviewed.

Because no matter how he looked, he didn't look in good shape, his pale skin looked like he was going to fall off at any moment.

On the other hand, Lance accepted the post-match interview calmly, and even talked and laughed. He didn't seem to lose as a loser.

You can win and lose.

Besides, losing to Natsu.

My good brother, isn't that the same as winning?

The hosts interviewed him, and with a possible win at the end. If Dragonite is lucky and stands a little longer, he might win, as Alakazam on the opposite side doesn't seem to be able to hold on.

Transfer.

"Natsu is very, very strong. I'm sure that I lost to him. I can feel that he has used all his strength. This has nothing to do with luck. eventually.

Obviously, Alakazam's will is stronger."

Lance accepted defeat so calmly, not only did he not let him lose supporters, it made people feel that he was very generous, very open, and he was a person who could continue to be a fan.

And what about Natsu now?

Sitting in the player's room with dispirited eyes, surrounded by Flint and Aaron.

'Did I win? I didn't win? '

Natsu wasn't sure if he won.

Judging from the final result of the match, he won.

But he actually knew that Alakazam had completely lost his consciousness at that time, and he was finally able to keep Psychic on his feet by relying on the illusory shadow that appeared behind him.

That's really important.

The Dragonite who stands up again and then falls at the end must be the victor, and Lance must advance to the finals.

But this kind of thing, and others can't explain it.

Moreover, it may be one of Alakazam's abilities, and it is not an external power.

That's why Natsu was skeptical about winning or losing.

But it doesn't matter, just as Lance said, what's the difference between him winning and Lance winning?

The point is they've already played the game.

The result was somewhat unexpected for Natsu.

In fact, he didn't expect to be able to fight Lance to that extent.

But it also shows that the effort he put in during this period, the risks he took, and the efforts put in by the Pokemon were not in vain.

Of course, the biggest variable, which Natsu couldn't predict, was Mew's illusory shadow appearing behind Alakazam.

'When Alakazam evolved last time, two pink Psychics appeared, one from the slate shard, and the other from the Mew gene in his body? '

Natsu isn't sure what research Team Rocket did on Alakazam's parents.

After all, how could an organization as big as Team Rocket do so little Pokemon research and genetic research, so even though Natsu already had a bit of a guess in his mind, he couldn't be sure.

Now that it's confirmed, Mew "runs out" on his own.

So.

If Team Rocket really messes with Mewtwo again in the future, Alakazam can point at Mewtwo's nose and say: My stupid ototo.

Natsu shook his head.

The picture is too beautiful, a little afraid to think about it.

But there is no doubt that this kind of genetics must have allowed Alakazam to inherit Mew's innate talent to some extent, so that it would show his extraordinary Psychic innate talent since he was a child.

Natsu also had other doubts.

Other Pokémon can't completely absorb slate shards, like the previous Jynx, but Alakazam can completely convert the slate's power into his own, is that also related to the Mew gene?

There is no way to investigate this matter, it can only be said that the probability is relatively large.

back to his senses.

Glancing at the people around him.

On the surface Natsu: Calm down, sit down, operate regularly, don't slip.

Natsu thought: Damn, so lucky.

Flint: "Are you a Psychic?"

Lucian: "Why did your Alakazam Psychic change color?"

Aaron: "Natsu, your Beedrill is immune to Fire Type moves, always make him face Fire Type Pokémon."

Natsu sat down reluctantly "No, that's your business?"

"Natsu, the next match is against Miss Shirona, what tactics are you planning to do?" Flint looked even more excited than Natsu.

hearing this, Natsu looked at Shirona who was sitting beside him, her brows furrowed tightly.

Rarely, she did not say a word.

Her expression was also more complicated.

Natsu pursed his lips, and after a bit of hesitation, he said, "Maybe. I can't fight next time."

"Can't fight?!"

Ignoring everyone else's excitement, Natsu only looked at Shirona to see what she looked like.

But Shirona didn't show much surprise, and it seemed she had already made some guesses.

They are all very strong Trainers. It's still very good at assessing a Pokémon's injury and state.

Or asked, "Because of Alakazam?"

Natsu nodded.

When he had just left the game, he carefully checked Alakazam's state, perhaps because the battle lasted too long, he suffered too many Dragonite attacks, and Mental Strength was too exhausted.

It may also be that Psychic is too withdrawn, which stimulates further fusion of the Mew genes, putting him into a deep sleep.

Natsu didn't know how long such a deep sleep would last.

But definitely not too short.

So now it's not a question of whether Natsu wants to fight, it's a question of whether he can.

Without Alakazam, only Togekiss, Beedrill and Doublade are left. Unless Doublade evolves now, it's impossible to match Shirona in terms of Pokémon power alone.

But developing Doublade for a game?

Doublade is different from Togetic. Togetic has reached a stage where it can evolve. In that form, the potential was almost unearthed, and evolution was something that needed to be prepared sooner or later.

But the Doublade coating time is not very long, and it has more potential to continue tapping, and it's not time for its evolution yet.

Natsu couldn't possibly waste Doublade's talent and future for a game.

Besides that.

Even if Doublade evolves.

With evolved Togekiss and Aegislash, these two newly evolved Pokémon that are not proficient in body and movement, to battle Shirona?

Do not be shy.

But Shirona's next sentence surprised Natsu.

"Or.... I'll abstain." Shirona said hesitantly.

As soon as she said these words, everyone in the room looked at him in astonishment.

This.

Natsu was also surprised.

"You look very serious now, have you thought about this matter?"

Shirona pursed her lips and nodded earnestly.

Because she felt that this competition was probably more important to Natsu than everyone else here.

Has Shirona won the championship again?

Although the actual value of this tournament was very different from the competition she had entered before, in the final analysis this was a competition, and to her, the impact would not be too great.

But Natsu was different.

Natsu who was born as an ordinary citizen is not easy to get to this stage.

And such a tournament with real value, if he can become a champion, it will definitely be very beneficial for his further development.

To put it simply, Natsu being a champion was far more rewarding than him being a champion.

Natsu had said before that people like Shirona who hesitated to make a choice was a typical "fun" personality, as she wanted to make things better, so she hesitated.

this time too.

There is a good saying.

It doesn't matter what method you use to win the championship, as long as you can become the champion, time will erase all the unimportant things little by little.

After that, Natsu's resume will only leave this tournament championship, and will not record how he won the championship.

However.

Shirona didn't think of a single thing.

Either Natsu wants this championship or not.

To be honest, Natsu's demand to become the champion wasn't really that high.

He already wanted to give up in the semi-finals.

Just because Lance really wanted to fight him, he didn't give up.

If this is "let" another champion out, then the joke is huge.

It's not that this champion is bad, it's purely a matter of personal character.

What is Natsu's character?

He is the one who unknowingly let Alakazam cover the Psychic color even though the Psychic color changed after Alakazam evolved.

Saying it well means being careful.

The goal of participating in this competition has been achieved, even far beyond the standard.

Besides, is there any difference between the champion and the runner-up in a competition like this?

Will the Sinnoh Alliance appreciate it?

Most, most, most, most important question!

This tournament has the most supporters?

Shirona's "Royal Sister" No doubt about it.

If they found out, Shirona wanted to make Natsu a champion, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to get out of Lily of the Valley Island alive.

Don't think that Shirona's supporters are all young people, believe it or not run a Gym Leader Level or even a quasi-Elite level "flower guardian" to destroy Natsu?

Even if you really want to be a champion, you have to rely on strength, not concessions.

So, this road should be blocked.

Natsu waved his hand again and again, "No need, really no need."

"But..."

"I have serious reasons to abstain, what do you have??" Natsu looked directly at Shirona.

"I.."

Shirona thought about it and didn't seem to have it.

But by the way, the senior executives of the Sinnoh Alliance have been smiling for a long time.

Who would have thought that at the end of this tournament, in the Final it would belong to their Sinnoh?

Insider?

Stand out and give it a try!

Besides, Natsu and Shirona, who doesn't fight with their own strength?

This is a real deal!

The competition side only did 100 million tricks on the daily battle list.

But the last thing to look at is the strength of the players.

The further you go, the stronger the players become. If you don't have the strength, even if the team has made hundreds of millions of tricks on the battle list, can you reach the final if you just change someone?

But seeing Steven vs Shirona, especially Lance vs Natsu, paying attention to even the detailed Pokemon rotations, isn't more convincing than any explanation.

"Okay, that's all, I will inform the staff later."

Natsu interrupted Shirona, who was about to speak again, and made a decision.

"Perhaps, we can apply for more time off." At this moment, Lorelei suddenly spoke.

When she said these words, the eyes of many people shone.

but as soon as all realized the impossible, shocked the head.

Don't say whether the staff will agree or not, but let it wait here for the spectators who come to watch this tournament match. They haven't watched the match yet, and the daily expenses are an incredible amount, can the Sinnoh Alliance make a profit?

Don't know how long it will take Natsu's Alakazam to fully recover.

One last point.

The preparation of the competition team schedule has a specific purpose. While testing the strength of each player, also testing the adaptability of the players.

The ability to keep fighting was the hidden value of this competition.

Why you can not?

Doesn't that mean your skills aren't as good as others?

Therefore, it is impossible to extend the rest period.

"What are you talking about? Everyone looks so serious?"

At this time.

After being interviewed, Lance pushed open the door and entered, saw the serious expression in the waiting room, and then glanced at Natsu's pale complexion, his heart sinking.

Walked in front of Natsu, said solemnly: "How many more days?"

Natsu: ? ? ?

"Get out!"

Tolled his eyes in annoyance.

But being made fun of like this, the dignified atmosphere in the room suddenly died down.

"What is going on?" Lance looked at Lorelei.

Lorelei frowned, but her hostility towards Lance was indeed much less, and she replied in a rare voice: "Senior Alakazam Natsu can't recover in a short time, so he's not prepared"

"Abstain?" answered Lance.

He wasn't too surprised.

Since it wasn't just Natsu's Alakazam, his Dragonite was also a bit overkill, and would need at least two or three days to recover.

The final battle of attrition makes both Pokémon feel bad.

It's just that Dragonite's wounds are physical. Compared to Alakazam's Mental wounds, it was better to recover.

"That's how I prepared it." Natsu was also calm.

"Understood, then I will pass on the meaning of the tournament staff to you." Lance suddenly said.

"en?"

There are several Elites watching this match, didn't they see the state of Alakazam?

Natsu gives up the game, which seems inevitable to them, unless he's hiding something.

So, after Lance's interview, the staff from the tournament found him and gave him advice, hoping he could come back and ask Natsu and Shirona for their opinion.

After a brief explanation, Lance said: "Since it was expected that the final would not be played, the tournament staff made a contingency plan, which was thought to ease any dissatisfaction that might arise from the audience."

as well.

After all, they came to watch the game, and now for tomorrow's final.

Now tell them they can't see the final?

No matter what the reason is for them, the end result is that the staff will be scolded to death, and even taking them players may not be able to gain any benefits.

Therefore, the tournament staff made an urgent submission.

A plan that couldn't keep the audience waiting, and couldn't lose the final with a gimmick.

Lance smiled and looked around the crowd, and when he was about to continue, he saw Natsu's fists were already clenched.

hurriedly said: "Double exhibition match."

"Double?"

As soon as this sentence came out, the audience was shocked.

"I mean if we don't get to play in the final, the tournament staff hopes the four of us can finally do a double exhibition match, either to calm the crowd, or for a perfect ending to the tournament."

A double exhibition match between two teams of semifinal players?

Which genius came up with this idea?

Let Natsu be the planner narrator: That's right, it's me again.

This possibility was taken into account when the staff realized that there were only four Pokémon in Natsu.

So they had a tight meeting and quickly passed a plan.

The semi-final double exhibition match not only featured a double fight, but also made the audience unapologetic and avoided a series of possible problems.

In addition, in this double exhibition match, each person can only use one Pokemon, and there is no problem with insufficient or unrecoverable Pokemon.

"When the exhibition game is over, the ceremony will be given." Lance made the final addition.

Look around the crowd again, especially at Natsu, Steven, and Shirona.

"What do you think?"
