Chuchu looked at Pikachu with a slightly shy expression, but did not intend to refuse, so she stepped forward slightly and gave her an angel kiss.
"Pikachu... Pikachu..."
This Angel's Kiss completely disoriented Pikachu, throwing it into a state of confusion. It ran around aimlessly on the ground, completely unaware of what it was doing.
(Right now, Chuchu, use Brick Break!)
Seeing this, Xiao Huang was happy for Qiu Qiu, but didn't forget to continue giving instructions.
"Qiu~Qiu~!"
Chuchu glanced at Pikachu, who had been hit with an Angel's Kiss and was now caught off guard and in a state of confusion, and then called out apologetically.
Then, it raised its little paw, condensing its fighting energy into Brick Break (Nono Zhao), and aimed it at Pikachu's head, preparing to gently knock it unconscious. The movement was very light and gentle.
But... bottom.
It didn't hit its target; instead, it shattered an afterimage.
"Qiu~!"
Chuchu felt a rub on the back of its head and was startled. As soon as it turned its head, it saw Pikachu behind it, its lightning bolt-shaped tail poking its heart-shaped tail.
Subsequently, within the steel-based energy, it transformed into a steel tail!
"Pikachu!!!"
Pikachu gave Chuchu a bright smile, which stunned Chuchu, and the smile was deeply imprinted in its heart.
competition is over!
Chuchu is unable to battle, and Pikachu wins!
...........................................
293. The quarterfinals have officially ended, and the four finalists have been determined! (Please subscribe to all chapters!)
"All of Yellow's Pokémon have lost their ability to battle!"
"The winner of this fourth round of the quarterfinals is... Crimson from Pallet Town!!!"
"Congratulations to Crimson for successfully advancing to the Indigo League semifinals!"
.........
.........
The moment the host announced it.
Little Yellow, who had been continuously empowered by the power of the Everlasting Stone, could no longer hold on and collapsed.
But the cold floor I imagined didn't appear; instead, I felt a warm, fiery chest.
The delicate, luminous eyes opened quietly, revealing a crimson-red-clad youth with his handsome face.
"Big brother..."
In an instant, blushing spread across the girl's pretty face as if by teleportation, even her little ears turned bright red.
"...Are you okay?"
Seeing this, Akane raised an eyebrow slightly, reached out and wiped the sweat from the girl's forehead caused by the excessive use of Tokiwa's power, and said softly.
"I'm fine, big brother."
Feeling the affection of her beloved, the girl felt both shy and sweet, but this was still the venue, and there were many people watching.
So, the girl could only suppress her reluctance and shyness as she stood up from her older brother's arms.
"Pi~ka~!"
"Qiu~Qiu~!"
At this moment, Pikachu and Chuchu seemed to have finally finished their secret communication, jumped onto Yellow's contestant platform, and let out a soft cry.
Because Pikachu held back, Chuchu wasn't hurt; it just fainted, so all Pikachu had to do was wake it up.
Afterwards, the two people and their two pets left the competition venue.
.........
.........
After the match between Little Yellow and Crimson came to an end.
The top four teams for the Quartz Conference have been determined!
Crimson, turquoise, azure, pear blossoms!
Three rookie trainers from Pallet Town in the Kanto region, and one Elite Four candidate from the Johto region!
The first three, although all are rookie trainers, and all have been traveling for less than a year, are no less powerful than veteran trainers, and Rika is also a candidate for Elite Four.
Many people even believe that among the four, the weakest is Rika, the Tenno candidate from the Johto region.
Pallet Town, a town almost forgotten, a town that can only barely survive by relying on Professor Oak's name, was once the "home of champions".
Now, for the first time, it is spreading its voice to the world in a name other than Professor Oak's!
Crimson, cyan, and azure—each of them is no less than Rinka, a candidate for Heavenly King, and may even be stronger. In other words, the three of them already possess Heavenly King-level strength.
A top-tier trainer who debuted less than a year ago!
There's also Little Yellow. Although she lost to Red in the quarterfinals, her strength is undeniable, and she is a true Elite Four level trainer.
In addition, Pallet Town also has Ash and Gary, two young genius trainers. Although they cannot compare with the four monsters mentioned above, they still made it into the top 16 of the Indigo League, only to lose to Red and Blue in the end.
Red, Blue, Azure, Yellow, Ash, and Gary—six trainers in total, all rookie trainers who just started their journey this year. Pallet Town is really about to take off...
The hometown of champions may very well live up to its name once again!
Even now, it truly has an additional title: "Land of Monsters"!

night.
The night was hazy, and the moonlight shone brightly.
It is located outside the athletes' area, in a grove of trees.
In the quiet (cdbg) night, the campfire roars and sparks fly, and humans and Pokémon create a beautiful scene, allowing people to feel the charm of nature.
Crimson sat cross-legged beneath the flickering firelight, its eyes narrowed, a bewitching crimson light occasionally flashing from within them.
Crimson is meditating.
And beside him.
Charizard, Pikachu, Snorlax, Marowak, Lapras, Eevee, Articuno, Haxorus, Butterfree, Dragonair, Poliwag, and Nidoking—all twelve Pokémon in total—were released.
The fire-breathing dragon sat beside the crimson one, its tail ablaze with flames that echoed the campfire as it gazed at the tranquil night sky.
Snorlax, still looking lazy, lay dozing under a big tree, while Pikachu and Eevee were lying on its belly talking to each other.
Laplace was swimming quietly in the stream not far ahead, while Galaggia, clutching its bone club and thick bone, leaned against a large tree, closing its eyes to rest.
The giant butterfly took flight and landed on the treetop, enjoying the night and the autumn breeze, while the double-axe dragon rubbed its axe teeth against a large rock.
Dragonair was curled up by the stream, sleeping peacefully, while Articuno stood high on a tree branch, looking aloof.
Mosquito Coil Swimmer and Nidoking are training themselves. Although there's not much to do in the later races, they want to be able to help Crimson in the future.
Everything was so peaceful.
.........
.........
Other places.
The Quartz Conference semifinalists were all busy with their own things.
In a garden in the contestant area, Azure is washing and massaging her Pokémon, after all, they have fought for her all this time.
Blue-Green, on the other hand, observes, records, and corrects the shortcomings of Pokémon in a training field, and also makes plans for the future of some Pokémon.
Meanwhile, Pear Blossom was repeatedly examining the information on Crimson, Green, and Azure, strategizing her approach to facing them in the upcoming semi-finals.
Especially the crimson and cyan ones, these two gave Pear Blossom a real headache. Even though she hadn't fully developed her "potential," these two had actually grasped it.
Moreover, it seems they've already come quite far.
As for Azure, it's not someone to be trifled with either. It possesses a Mega Evolution that she has absolutely no clue about; truly, these three are troublesome...
However, my evil army will not admit defeat!
...........................................
294. Steven, the champion of the Hoenn League and the strongest Steel-type trainer! (Please subscribe to all chapters!)
The next day, early morning!
8:30!
Quartz Conference Semifinals Opening Ceremony!
The fireworks display was like a magnificent feast, with burning sparks illuminating the sky and colorful smoke billowing up, transforming into all sorts of Pokémon, adding a touch of liveliness to the venue.
It was at this time.
Whoosh—!
A streak of silvery-white light flashed across the sky!
"Terry!!!"
A low, intoxicating murmur arose, and a saucer-like, disc-shaped body emerged, with thick limbs extending in all directions. Its entire body was made of metal, tinged with a silvery-white iron body. An "X"-shaped, dark blue alloy plate stood on its face, with a pair of blood-red eyes on its lower left and right sides!
It is the second pseudo-legendary Pokémon in the Hoenn region, the final evolution of Beldum, the Ironfoot Pokémon... Shiny Metagross!
On the back of this Metagross monster, a man dressed in a black suit with a white collar and a red tie, with light blue hair and an extraordinary demeanor, like a refined gentleman, slowly landed in the center of the venue!
