Chapter 253: You Are Not Allowed to Play Pokémon! Chapter 113

Coincidentally, the other three contestants of this exhibition match chose those three powerful pseudo-legendaries in the dark, leaving the final choice to Qingyu.

Is it to complete a qualified opening performance with numerical values?

Or to throw the outcome of a mere exhibition match behind, and replicate the famous scene from the previous life that countless players still remember vividly?

Qingyu felt that hesitating for even a second on this choice would be disrespectful to his battle soul.

Staring at Qingyu's extremely serious gaze, Champion Zhulan was suddenly a bit dazed, but soon smiled and nodded.

"I believe in your choice."

"I hope to bring a different opening performance to the audience of this Master Tournament~"

Sinnoh, Battle Frontier, Battle Castle.

"Haa—"

In the middle of the night, the Sleeping Beauty Caitlin, who crawled out of bed slowly, looked out the window.

The bright moonlight spilled from the sky, adding a touch of light to the dim room, and also bringing a bit of sacred atmosphere.

Feeling like something good will happen today?

For some reason, staring blankly at the scene outside the window, Caitlin, who is a psychic, suddenly had some premonitions.

Just as she was using her psychic power to forcibly press down the hair that had unintentionally stuck up while she was sleeping, the Rotom Phone on the nightstand suddenly emitted a notification sound.

Along with it, there was a strong vibration that lasted for a few times.

Caitlin's gaze was instantly attracted.

It was a message prompt from the Navigator.

Because she basically never leaves the Battle Castle, her Navigator friends can be said to be pitifully few, and usually no one sends her messages.

Then, there is only one answer—

Champion Zhulan!

Using telekinesis to instantly suck the Rotom phone into her hand, the moment Caitlin opened the screen, a message popped up immediately.

【(Special Concern) Champion Zhulan: Caitlin, are you asleep?】

Seeing the message, Caitlin, who was still a bit sleepy, woke up instantly, and a smile bloomed quietly at the corner of her mouth.

Hmph, she actually remembered me after such a long time; sure enough, she didn't take me to heart at all!

Since that's the case, I can't reply in seconds; I can't give Champion Zhulan the illusion that I value her very much!

Tapping her fingers and counting to thirty in her heart, Caitlin took a deep breath, opened the screen saver impatiently, and typed a few lines of text with telekinesis.

【Caitlin: Just woke up, what's the matter with you?】

【Caitlin: If there is anything I can help you with, just speak up!】

Well, this tone should be relatively cold now.

Caitlin nodded with satisfaction, staring at the screen without blinking, waiting for Champion Zhulan's reply.

After a few minutes, when she was a little impatient, Champion Zhulan's message finally arrived late.

【Champion Zhulan: I am participating in the Dragon-type Master Tournament in Paldea during this time, so I might need a Pachirisu in my team, so I want to ask if you have this Pokémon in your Battle Castle.】

【Caitlin: Isn't it just a Pachirisu? I have all the Sinnoh Pokémon here!】

【Caitlin: I'll go find Darach later and ask him to pick out the strongest one and send it to you~】

【Champion Zhulan: Thank you, Caitlin, you've been a big help!】

"Heh... hehe..."

Caitlin's expression gradually became perverted.

That cold Champion Zhulan actually said thank you to me!

However, with the relationship between us, these are all small things~

"Darach! Hurry up and help me take out all the Pachirisu in the house!"

"Okay, My Lady."

Shouting at the door, and immediately getting Darach's reply, listening to the hurried footsteps moving away outside the door, Caitlin's mood was extremely pleasant.

Speaking of which, why didn't she tell me that she went to Paldea to participate in the competition?

This is her first major tournament since becoming Champion, which is directly related to other regions' impression of Sinnoh; it's extremely important!

And fighting alone overseas, she should be very lonely, right?

Should I...

Go to the scene and cheer for her?

Caitlin thought silently and soon made a decision—

She is going to Paldea to give Champion Zhulan a surprise!

Readers who know a little about battles have guessed it; next, I will try to replicate the world-famous painting of player Sejun at the 2014 World Championships~
