Chapter 10

However, Su Hao didn't intend to let Carbink only develop in the direction of a defensive Pokémon.

After Carbink becomes Diancie, its mediocre dual attack stats will be supplemented, and after Mega Evolution, its attack power will be further increased to a terrifying degree.

Su Hao planned to let Carbink lay a good foundation in all aspects during its Carbink period, develop in a balanced way, and then after it mutates into Diancie, Carbink's potential will be released in one go. The abundant physical fitness and energy as a Mythical Pokémon are the capital that makes Diancie stronger than ordinary Pokémon.

After generally testing Carbink's various qualities, Su Hao took Carbink directly to the gym's battle facility.

Here, it needs to be mentioned that the Shenzhou Alliance officially held a competition called 【Ranking Match】 across the entire Shenzhou Alliance.

As an officially held competition, the Ranking Match possessed authority in all walks of life across the country.

As the name suggests, the Ranking Match is about improving rankings and upgrading tiers through Pokémon battles.

First is the Poké Ball Tier. Because the number of participants is too large, Trainers who register to participate in the Ranking Match will be assigned to the Poké Ball Tier.

Because the base number of participants in the Poké Ball Tier is too large, it will not be counted in the national ranking.

Next is the Great Ball Tier. The condition for upgrading from the Poké Ball Tier to the Great Ball Tier is very simple, which is to complete a ten-game winning streak in the Poké Ball Tier to step into the Great Ball Tier. Because your opponents are randomly assigned by the computer, it may be very simple to enter the Great Ball Tier, or it may be interrupted by big shots who have lost too much in the Great Ball Tier and come down to "smurf."

No matter how much you lose in the Poké Ball Tier, there is no room for demotion, but starting from the Great Ball Tier, if you lose too many matches, you will be demoted.

In general, the Poké Ball Tier is more like a large sieve, screening out some Trainers with weak abilities.

Above the Great Ball Tier, there are the Ultra Ball Tier, Master Ball Tier, and the 【Champion Challenge】 located at the pinnacle of the Shenzhou Alliance. The top 1,000 Trainers in the Master Ball Tier conduct a knockout tournament, and the final top eight contestants can obtain the qualification to challenge the five strongest people in the Alliance, the Elite Four and the Champion. Those who succeed in the challenge can even truly replace the Elite Four and Champion they defeated and become one of them.

Therefore, as the only officially certified Ranking Match battle venue in Yang City, the Rising Sun Gym is naturally crowded with people at all times.

However, the Ranking Match is not a competition that Su Hao and Carbink, who are still at the Novice Stage, can participate in right now.

Su Hao's real goal is a huge open space outside the official battle venue of the Ranking Match.

Every year at this time, this open space gathers many Novice Trainers in Yang City who have just claimed their starter Pokémon.

You have to fight with people of your own level first to know your current combat power positioning with Carbink.
