Chapter 963

Wallace and Lisia both came this morning.

Although the two were only responsible for the opening ceremony, it wasn't the usual routine work, and they were prepared to see it to the end.

"I'll go wash up."

All Baimu walked into the bathroom hurriedly.

Soon.

As the other Pokémon in the house woke up one by one, the living room became lively.

Those with relatively lively personalities surrounded them, such as Shiny Milotic, Shiny Gengar, the Drakloak siblings, etc.

Wallace stroked the fine scales on Milotic's tail, checked the mucus state of its smooth body, and opened his mouth to praise: "You've already graduated! All Baimu!"

Sootopolis Gym's ancestral Milotic breeding technique!

In the past, Sootopolis Gym didn't establish the eldest or favor the youngest; among all the disciples, whoever could breed Milotic better would succeed as the Gym Leader.

Wallace could breed two excellent Milotic trainers, enough to account to the predecessors of the gym.

Just this position of Gym Leader...

Forget it.

Can't think too much; thinking too much makes one worry, and too much worry makes hair fall out and skin become worse.

Wallace, as a legendary Coordinator known for being "delicate and dripping," had very high requirements for Pokémon and himself.

"Meow~"

"Hmm?"

He lowered his head and saw the Alolan Meowth full of flattery, the soft, smooth light gray fur making him curl his lips and praise: "Nice fur!"

The highest-grade fur of the Alolan Persian had already begun to show signs in the Meowth stage.

And upon hearing Wallace mention this, Alolan Meowth looked very proud.

"Meow!"

Beauty salons are truly a top invention of humans; it only went twice and the gloss of its fur went up several levels.

When All Baimu came out of the bathroom.

Lisia, Altaria, and Gengar were snatching potato chips to eat, and Wallace was stroking Meowth's back while drinking coffee.

The latter was lying obediently on his lap.

You kid!

All Baimu cast a look of disdain; after Meowth regained its nature in Mt. Silver, it took out the set from the past again—

Find a strong person to attach to, in order to live a comfortable life.

Just like before he came back, Meowth took the initiative to please Calyrex to gain its protection.

When it discovered All Baimu's unusual attitude toward Wallace, it immediately showed a flattering posture.

Hopeless!

All Baimu shook his head, but didn't say much.

He was a trainer who respected the nature of Pokémon.

Since he brought Meowth back, as long as it didn't use its relationship to act recklessly on the mountain, there was no need to interfere.

"All Baimu, All Baimu! You're on fire again! Hotter than the last few times!" Lisia shook her phone.

The short video on the Pokémon app showing him letting the super-giant Steelix use Fissure.

With passionate background music, the playback count reached tens of millions!

Tens of millions!?

The anime world is different from the real world; there isn't such a large population, not to mention the Pokémon app had only been online for a few months, and the number of users last time was only...

"Users exceeded ten million!?"

All Baimu's pupils widened slightly; the number of users exceeded the total population of Orre!

The Pokémon app is terrifying!

He never expected this thing to really be so popular so quickly.

Can only say that even in the Pokémon world, people's desire to share and pry is unprecedentedly strong.

He asked the three if they had enjoyed breakfast.

After getting an affirmative answer.

All Baimu took the initiative to invite: "It's rare for you to come to Mt. Silver; let me take you around to visit, okay?"

Wallace and Lisia had no objections, and the butler Sebastian wanted to stay to make breakfast for him, but was rejected by him on the grounds of wanting to eat fresh berries directly in the morning.

The group walked out of the villa.

During the conversation.

All Baimu learned that the three were sent by Shanren, so he enthusiastically invited them to stay in the villa.

It's sad to say, he specifically invited friends like Wally and Max to stay in Mt. Silver last night, but was rejected repeatedly.

The reason was that they wanted to go to Beryllium City to stroll and play the next day.

Mt. Silver is too far, and transportation is not very convenient.

Where is it inconvenient!

Isn't it convenient for the cute little Hoopa to open a teleportation portal in minutes?

All Baimu had reason to believe he was isolated by his friends; it was fine if Max and Tetsuya knew each other before.

Since when did you get so familiar with everyone, Wally?

Are we still good close friends?

He was heartbroken, feeling like a last emperor, no different from a "lonely man."

In fact.

Wally didn't agree just because he wanted to keep the anticipation for the match; the boy knew very well how poisonous someone's eyes were, and if they lived together, he would inevitably glimpse some information from daily life.

This contradicted Wally's idea of planning to give him a surprise.

As for Max and others, they simply didn't want to disturb him; in the past, Ash would also go out to train alone during the tournament.

State is very important.

No matter how strong you are usually, if your state is not good on the day, you can only exert seventy or eighty percent of your strength.

And Lisia and Wallace were very confident in him, so they weren't afraid.

Both agreed to the invitation.

Visited all the way to the side of the experimental field.

Melodía was fetching water, and when she saw Lisia, her eyes lit up, running over excitedly to grab her hands, jumping on the spot and cheering: "Mr. Wallace! Lisia! I am your loyal fan!"

"Really? I'm so honored~"

Lisia didn't know Melodía, but since the latter lived at the foot of Mt. Silver, she must be someone All Baimu knew, so her tone was extra affectionate.

All Baimu asked: "What about Ryker? And why haven't I seen Hoopa?"

"Brother is still sad about yesterday's match, Hoopa wants to comfort him..."

Mentioning this, Melodía felt a bit embarrassed.

It wasn't that Ryker was too fragile; it was really that not passing the preliminary round gave this former Lumiose Conference top sixteen a big sense of gap.

He thought that since All Baimu had trained him for so long, wasn't entering the preliminaries stable?

As a result, as soon as he entered, he was beaten down by Long Ren, who defeated the second-generation Cipher alone, which could be called drawing the worst lot.

All Baimu turned and entered the wooden house, finding Ryker sitting on a wooden chair, sighing at several Poké Balls.

Hoopa pouted, looking like it wanted to comfort but didn't know how to comfort.

It was actually even more aggrieved than Ryker.

Sensing his appearance, Hoopa shouted as if granted amnesty: "All Baimu! Come over quickly!"

It gestured with its hands, wanting to seek help.

All Baimu raised his hand, realizing it should calm down, and said to Ryker: "My teacher and friends are here to visit, right at the door, meet together?"

Ryker, who was sad, poked his head out to look outside upon hearing this, and sure enough, he saw a refined man with an extraordinary appearance.

"H-hello!"

In front of a stranger, how could he be embarrassed to continue to be sad, hurriedly standing up to greet.

Wallace looked at All Baimu and said: "Hello, I am Wallace. Coming from Hoenn, sorry for the disturbance."

"I am Ryker! Mr. Wallace, you are too polite, can't talk about disturbance." Ryker shook hands with him politely.

Wallace changed the subject and said: "Those fields outside, I think they are the little brother's masterpiece? I observe them arranged neatly, as if there is a unique aesthetic..."

What is the best way to comfort someone?

Shift his attention, and by the way, try every means to improve his confidence.

Under Wallace's praise method, Ryker soon threw the failure of the tournament to the back of his mind.

Before All Baimu brought Calyrex back, it was always him and Melodía supporting the wild Pokémon on the mountain.

Although he didn't publicize it, Ryker was very proud.

He thought he was like his grandfather, doing something that might not be so great, but very meaningful.

Wallace's praise made the sense of achievement deep in his heart surge again.

After everyone finished visiting this part.

Ryker completely returned to normal, embarking on a short journey to visit Mt. Silver together.

All Baimu leaned to Wallace's side and whispered an apology: "Sorry to trouble you, teacher."

"Family doesn't talk about two families."

Wallace shook his head.

He was actually quite good at moving his lips, and he didn't praise his loyal fans less.

Which one wasn't praised by him until they were smiling?

Having fully appreciated the many miracles created by Calyrex, the group returned to the villa on the mountainside.

Lisia held little Hoopa, not letting go the whole time.

She liked this eccentric Mythical Pokémon very much, and every time the latter played a prank, she would respond actively with special face.

Making Hoopa have a great impression of her.

"Aru! Melodía! Hoopa will perform magic for you to see!"

It laughed and used the gold ring, making some ridiculous things, making Melodía very helpless.

But with her idol beside her, she couldn't just get angry.

Suddenly.

Lisia said: "Hoopa is so amazing, Melodía, why don't you try to step onto the stage of the Pokémon Contest with it?"

"Pokémon Contest? I can't!" Melodía waved her hands hurriedly.

She was a loyal fan of the Pokémon Contest, but that didn't mean she was willing to perform on stage.

Lisia grabbed Melodía's hand, her fair face approaching, and said earnestly: "Try it! Trying won't hurt~ Next year I'll come to Orre to hold a Pokémon Contest, you must participate!"

Although it hadn't been written yet, Lisia made a decision.

In Orre, promote the Pokémon Contest!

As a Pokémon Idol, letting more and more people know about gorgeous performances was her natural duty!

All Baimu drank tea calmly.

Since getting to know Lisia, he knew this day would come sooner or later.

If she didn't do it, Shanren would find someone else to do it.

At noon, All Baimu, Blissey, and the old butler Sebastian made a perfect feast.

Afternoon.

Wallace took a short nap; he still wasn't used to Orre's climate.

All Baimu, Lisia, and Melodía went to Beryllium City together with Mawile to meet the loyal fans of the Mawile fan club.

Since the Hoenn Grand Festival ended.

Mawile lost its fan club fans, and it wasn't until the blog account was announced to the public that it found them again.

The long-lost meeting, faces that seemed familiar, mixed with joyful and excited warm greetings, instantly disintegrated Mawile's dignified young lady temperament that it had barely maintained.

It wasn't a Pokémon good at expressing inner emotions, but it got wet eyes on this day.

But in the end, it didn't let the tears flow down.

It buried its face in All Baimu's belly, and after its emotions stabilized, it looked at the somewhat panicked Kitayane and others again.

Ordinary people find it hard to understand why it would be like this.

A Pokémon that longed for attention and didn't want to be lonely and miserable anymore, had the trainer it loved most, and stepped onto the shining stage with him, harvesting thousands of fans who supported it.

Although due to irresistible factors, it almost lost this group of people, but with the help of partners, it slowly picked them back up.

Finally able to meet again.

How could it be as calm as if nothing happened?

In order to thank all the fans who came, Mawile and All Baimu had a long-lost gorgeous performance.

Haven't been on stage for a long time, but Mawile still maintained its hobby of dancing.

Therefore, the gorgeous performance not only didn't fail, but because it had become stronger now, the skill effects were even more gorgeous.

Kitayane and other fans excitedly finished filming and posted it on the Pokémon app, successfully causing envy and jealousy among some fans who couldn't come to Orre.

Everyone had dinner together.

At night.

The League organizers announced the combination list for the first round of the preliminaries—sixty-four into thirty-two.

Basically no "civil war."

Shanren's opponent was also an unfamiliar foreign trainer.

And All Baimu...

His opponent was Kenta, a young trainer from New Bark Town modeled after the second-generation game protagonist Ethan.

"Your luck is okay! Remember to help me draw Tobias next time." All Baimu patted Shanren on the shoulder.

Shanren replied: "Instead of begging me, you'd better let your Blissey change its mouth; that would be much luckier."

He looked at his opponent, feeling a bit nervous.

The preliminary round is the stage to see the real skills; failing the preliminary round might be able to use excuses like not being good at field combat or other situations.

If you fail the preliminary round, unless it's a convincing opponent, what awaits you will be controversy.

The outside world won't care too much about his results.

At most, they will mention it on the day the match ends; what's really noisy is the inside of Orre.

It even has nothing to do with the lower-middle-class people; it's the newly formed upper-middle-class society, or there will be voices of opposition.

Whether his choice to participate in the tournament will become a beautiful story or a stain depends on his specific performance.

"Don't be so nervous, you've already entered the preliminaries!"

All Baimu couldn't stand his best friend's trembling appearance.

Shanren glanced at him and said: "People with talent won't understand."

A familiar conversation.

Before the preliminary round started, they had also said this.

Remember at that time his answer was—"People who have only won championships won't understand."

Indeed, All Baimu has only won and never lost all the way.

How would a genius understand the world of mortals.

If only he could be as gifted as him, many difficulties would be solved.

It's good to have talent!

It's good to have talent?

Shanren was stunned, always feeling something was wrong with this sentence.

Before he could turn the corner, the subordinate's call made him hurry over, "What's the matter?"

"The cable car for transporting the audience and the cable car for transporting the contestants..."

The subordinate reported the sudden situation.

Shanren arranged for people to deal with it calmly, causing All Baimu to click his tongue on the side.

On the eve of the match.

Actually still have to be busy with work.

Brother Shanren is grabbing both hands, and both hands are hard!

All Baimu had always admired his good friend; many jobs aren't just a matter of lips touching, handing them over to subordinates, and they can complete them one hundred percent.

Sudden situations are everywhere.

Just like a machine, the more complex it is, the easier it is to have problems, and Shanren is responsible for quickly finding the cause and repairing it when it has problems.

"I'm going back! Remember to sleep early; even if it's an afternoon match, you have to restore your spirit."

All Baimu advised: "The trainer's state will affect the Pokémon."

Shanren said without looking back: "I know, don't worry."
