If you ask why Pioni is also the champion, it is because Galar’s productivity is scarce and the value of the championship was very low before the generation of Dandi.
Master Ma dominated the Galar League for 13 years, and it was only after his retirement that Pioni won a championship.
The trainer card shows a photo of him when he was young. Peony has a big smile on his face and carries his daughter "Little Xia Xia" Xiakoya on his shoulders.
Lu Ye thought to himself: "This guy is obsessed with daughters."
Xia Keya has reached her rebellious stage and is gradually developing into a dark-skinned hot girl, which makes her father Pioni feel sad...
In the picture, Pioni, wearing an orange scientific expedition team uniform, strides onto the field.
clang!
The teams of both are presented.
Pioni: [Boskodora, Cat Boss, Bronze Bell, King Bronze Elephant]
Teacher Lu: [Sand Eater, Tutu, Sun Eevee, Sea Slug]
"Go ahead, Sand-Eating Castle Lord, Tutu Dog!" Lu Ye commanded.
The other side.
It was snowing outside. Pioni sat bored in the scientific research tent, stroking his beard and muttering:
"Teacher Lu... I seem to have heard of this name."
It is said that he is a genius trainer like Dende and is quite popular in the Galar region.
But.
Sand-Eating Castle, what can it do? !
"Bronze Bell, Magic Space—" Pioni shouted, "Meow Boss, high five surprise attack!"
The cat boss's hair is as hard as steel, and its hidden ability "Will of Steel" is a rare group bonus that can increase the power of steel-type moves of all Pokémon on the team.
“Meow!!”
The cat leader strode towards the Tutu dog with big strides, clasped his paws together, and slammed them shut an inch in front of the Tutu dog's eyes.
However, Tutu Dog waved its paint-covered tail, and an emerald green "hold" barrier lit up around it, knocking the cat leader back.
The other side.
A big question mark appeared on Sand-Eating Castle Lord's forehead, his expression was dull, and his "momentary amnesia" greatly strengthened his special defense!
A layer of magic space surrounds the venue.
The bronze bell was taken back into the Poké Ball, and instead the towering and roaring Boskodora was sent out, its steel-like armor emitting a metallic luster!
At the same moment, Pioni rubbed his chin and looked at Tutu dog strangely.
To be honest, there are very few Pokémon of this type that appear on the field.
Besides, Pioni doesn't think that Tutu Dog can do anything in space!
"Tutu dog, flying water shuriken."
Teacher Lu took the time to say: "The priority system of the flying water shuriken is higher. Even if the Tutu dog is faster and originally behind in the magic space, it can take priority!"
Seeing Tutu dog waving its paint-covered tail, three water shurikens gathered together and came out of the wind!
Flying Water Shuriken?!
Pioni was slightly stunned.
How can this cause any harm... Wait, the shuriken's target is your teammate, Sand Eater!
Without time to think, Pioni shouted: "Boskodora, use Ice Fist on Sand Devourer!"
Boom! Boom!
Boskodora took heavy steps, like a mountain crushing down on him, his eyes were sharp under his steel helmet, and his iron fist was emitting an extremely cold icy light!
The distance between the two is very close.
The flying water shuriken fell on the Sand-Eating Castle, a layer of energy film was broken, and the weakness insurance was successfully triggered!
At the same time, the Sand-Eating Castle solidified when it came into contact with water, and its body grew larger and larger. The sand glowed like steel, and it stood in front of Boskodora like a Wall of Sighs!
Boskodora raised his head and swung out his ice fist with a bang, exploding with powerful force!
The effect is outstanding!
However, the Sand-Eating Castle, whose defense had been quadrupled, stood still, its mouth wide open as if in mockery.
Pioni was stunned for a moment.
The flying water shuriken directly filled up the defense of the Sand Devouring Castle!
“This is real sand scraping!”
"It's like a freezing punch and a tickle!"
What made Pioni despair was yet to come.
The Sand-Eating Castle is like an insurmountable wall of sighs.
And when the trick space ended, the Sun Ibrahimovic came on the field, the ruby on his forehead shone brightly, "self-suggestion" was triggered, and his hair turned the color of steel!
The "auxiliary force" whose power increases as the ability increases, formed a bright light, which exploded on the half-health Boskodora and took it away directly!
"There is such a combo?"
“It’s impossible to guard against it!”
The final score was 4:1.
Just when the netizens were sighing at how they had learned some cool new tricks, Teacher Lu came up with another system.
In the second game, I was matched with Pioni again.
Pioni looked at the opposing team's lineup with his eyes wide open.
"Lulile, Death Plate?"
What a strange lineup this is!
Teacher Lu said: "Lulili's characteristic is strongman, which has the effect of greatly strengthening physical attack. And the "wandering soul" characteristic of the death plate can exchange characteristics when it is hit by contact-type moves."
"The key to this system is that Lulili uses the wild dance to pass the "Hercules" to the Death Plate, and at the same time triggers the "Weak Point Insurance", allowing the Death Plate to produce explosive damage!"
Acerola was a little confused.
Two consecutive output hands were both ghost-type Pokémon, but she never thought that she could use this tactic.
Aserola herself had also thought about the Sand-Eating Castle's system of "solidifying when in contact with water".
However, the Death Plate exchange feature gets "Hercules", which is unheard of before!
"You can give it a try..."
Acerola cupped her cheeks with her hands, pursed her lips into a w shape, and whispered, "It feels like it will be very useful!"
Both sets of tactics are more entertainment-oriented, and the systems are not as serious as Space and Mie Ge.
However, the fans still unlocked new knowledge.
"It's all useless!"
"Gone. Two sets of tactics, that's all?"
"To be honest, it is because there are many trainers like Mr. Lu that new tactics are constantly being discovered and weak Pokémon will not be buried... This is the romance of Pokémon!"
"What does the title's Road to Champions mean?"
"This is what I'm going to say next..." Lu Ye paused.
In fact, the road to challenging the championship is very troublesome, but you have to do it.
because…
If you want to propose to the Sinnoh Champion, you need a decent title...
This is also what Mr. Lu considers.
"I decide."
Teacher Lu announced: "Participate in Donghuang's Road to Champions next month and see how far you can go."
There was a moment of silence in the live broadcast room.
Everyone has imagined the scene of Mr. Lu challenging for the championship.
But when he actually announced his participation in the battle, his emotions became stagnant again.
Suddenly.
The public screen was flooded with comments!
“Ohhhh!!”
"When will you become the Donghuang champion, Mr. Lu!"
"Lu Bao, my Superman!!"
Lu Ye looked at the discussion in the barrage and smiled slightly.
Suddenly, a long-lost reminder sound came to my ear.
[Ding! Mission 'Champion's Road' begins! ]
[Mission objective: On the road to championship, at least obtain a place in the Four Heavenly Kings.]
[Task Rewards: Random Rare and Precious Fruits*3, Precious Ball*1 (Four Heavenly Kings); Random Rare and Precious Fruits*5, Master Ball*1! (Champion)]
Teacher Lu was stunned for a moment.
He actually cheated at this time...
Lu Ye thought: "Does your fruit stay ripe?"
[？]
Chapter 734: Becoming the Champion and Having to Take the Make-up Exam
If you want to challenge the championship road, the required qualifications are as follows, and you only need to meet one of them.
[Achieve a place in the top four of the league conference in any region;
Serve as a regional curator for one year and submit an application to the Alliance;
Clear any regional battle facility, such as the battle subway in Unova, the frontier area in Hoenn, etc.
These conditions are universal in all regions and will be adjusted as appropriate.
For example, if Darko wins the Lily of the Valley Tournament, he can directly challenge the Champions League and challenge the Four Heavenly Kings or even the champion.
In the Donghuang region, after winning the championship, you still need to go through a round of championship assessment.
This shows how difficult it is to become the league champion.
The "roadside trainer" you meet on the road to championship is very likely the champion of a certain league conference.
There is a huge gap in strength between the conference champion and the league champion.
The quality of the conference champions also varies.
The level of the Miare Conference that Ailan and Xiaozhi participated in was obviously higher than other alliance conferences.
There are even people like Mr. Lu who bomb the fish pond... However, the Lily of the Valley Conference was indeed the first conference championship trophy he won.
Therefore, Lu Ye is qualified to challenge the Donghuang Road. After defeating other trainers, he can challenge the Four Heavenly Kings and the Champion.
Yesterday, the news in the live broadcast room spread like wildfire, and the entire Donghuang trainer forum was in an uproar.
"Teacher Lu is going to challenge the Donghuang Road?"
"I told you that he returned to Demon University for further studies after conquering the alliance... but you didn't believe me!"
"Teacher Lu once took the baby team to participate in the college league and lived in Bengbu."
"This is called seniors assessing newcomers. I learned this from Adek! (dog head)"
Mr. Lu’s resume at Donghuang is clearly visible.
