Greatest Pokémon Trainer

"Hold on a second."

"Battling is dangerous, you guys shouldn't participate."

Fang Yuan sternly stared at the excited Kira Pray and Hoopa.

You're participating just for the prizes, right?

But the thing is, the prizes are you guys yourselves.

One of the prizes, Kira Pray's wish.

And, Hoopa has many treasures, Fang Yuan thought, maybe he could coax Hoopa into sponsoring some stuff as prizes...

"Danger??"

Hoopa fell into deep thought.

As a Super Demon God, besides the time when Fang Yuan sealed its powers and it felt danger, to be honest, it had never really felt danger!

Looking down on who!

However.

Hoopa was taken aback for a moment as it thought of its currently meager remaining power and its expression turned into one of grievance.

That's right, it had lost most of its power.

Hoopa looked at the strong Pokemon like Monferno and others, with its current power, it might really be the one getting beaten up, one punch would definitely hurt like heck.

But... but if it was allowed to use its summoning ability to call for help, it might still be able to fight, like, if it encountered Monferno, it could use its rings to summon Eevee, the Armed Magnetic Monster, and Darkrai all at once to gang up on Monferno.

Then, they would split the prize with the three of them...

Little Hoopa's eyes widened, "I... I can do it!!"

Watching the excited Little Hoopa, Fang Yuan and the others looked serious, feeling that Little Hoopa's "Soul" waves had grown once more...

It seemed that mastering negativity wasn't far off.

"Danger..."

Kira Pray, too, quieted down, contemplating.

Kira Pray was actually very strong.

In the theater version, a member of the Magma Team used a Groudon Scale to attempt to borrow Kira Pray's powers and create Groudon based on this scale.

Of course, it was a failure, after all, the original Groudon's power isn't necessarily weaker than the Millennium Comet, so how could it be successful? However, although a real Groudon wasn't created, Kira Pray did create an equally terrifying monster.

This earth demon in the form of a Super Ancient Groudon possessed strength not inferior to that of a Legendary Level or close to it.

The big boss of the theater version was this monster, which nearly wiped out the main characters, but in the moment of danger, this monster, comparable to a Legendary, was obliterated by Kira Pray's exclusive and powerful move "Destructive Wish" using the power of the Millennium Comet, sent sky high.

So, speaking of Kira Pray's true combat power, it's probably not low, with at least the upper limit of a Near-legendary Level.

If it were to join the fight, Fang Yuan was worried it would use up all the energy from the Millennium Comet for battling... If there was no energy left to grant wishes, then everything would be ruined.

Fang Yuan looked at the mischievously smiling Little Hoopa and the eager Kira Pray, and quickly said:

"Stop stop stop... you two don't get any ideas."

"How about this, Hoopa, Kira Pray, you join another competition, um... a video game competition, how about that."

"This competition is much easier, you won't get hurt at all, nor will it waste any physical strength, and it's even more interesting, plus, there are also very generous prizes."

"As for the battle competition, you can be the judges. Enjoy a feast while watching them battle, isn't it much more fun than exhausting yourselves fighting?"

Hoopa and Kira Pray were taken aback.

"Hoopa can!" After a pause, Little Hoopa quickly nodded its head, then said excitedly: "If there are rewards, Hoopa wants its own gaming console."

"What's a gaming console?" Kira Pray looked bewildered.

"Something very fun to play with," Fang Yuan smiled slightly: "Sure, sure, no problem, the prize can be... a gaming console..."

"Kira Pray, just wait and Eevee, Victini, and Hoopa will teach you how to play games!"

"Okay... okay then." Kira Pray, somewhat indecisive, nodded its head in a daze.

"That settles it!"

The plan is on—

Fang Yuan finished speaking, and Eevee looked at him with disdain.

How dare he swindle Hoopa and Jirachi with such cheap stuff, yuck!

The cost of the food those two little ones just ate could buy several boxes of high-end gaming systems.

"Remember where you came from." Fang Yuan looked at Eevee seriously. This Eevee could no longer be taken in, had it forgotten the times it struggled for a cell phone? Indeed, wealth could spoil an Eevee.

...

During breakfast, Fang Yuan and the others had come to an agreement.

Victini, Hoopa, and Jirachi would participate in the "Game Triathlon" competition.

The rest of the Pokemon, except for the 3D Rotom serving as referee, would participate in the Fang Yuan Grand Tournament.

The rewards for the gaming competition were exclusive gaming consoles and gaming phones, plus various game service memberships and vouchers.

The rewards for the Fang Yuan Grand Tournament, on the other hand, would be provided collectively by the three major judges Fang Yuan, Hoopa, and Jirachi.

Fang Yuan: "I can fulfill one wish for the winner."

Hoopa: "Then... can I do that too?"

Jirachi: "I... I should be able to, right?" (Millennium Comet: No, you can't!)

And so, it was happily decided.

The judges would fulfill the more difficult wishes of top-ranking contestants as best as they could, while Fang Yuan and Hoopa would fulfill the attainable wishes of other outstanding contestants. As for the Pokemon with the lowest rankings... still want to make a wish?? Get ready for a supercharged workout.

"The rules of this competition are simple, similar to previous years."

"It's still a point-based competition, all of you have to take turns fighting each other."

"You can use forfeiture strategies, final rankings will be determined by points."

"There are no item restrictions, feel free to bring as many items as you want."

"The partner system still exists, but only partner combinations that can both fit into a Poké Ball are recognized by the system."

As Fang Yuan explained, the Pokemon had mixed feelings.

As a beneficiary of the partner system, Magnemite was in a good mood.

Glutton was also in a good mood, being a beneficiary with no item limit. Although other Pokemon could carry a lot of items, none could possibly carry as many as it. Check out the space inside this tiny stomach, it can hold ten thousand items!

"Waa..." On the side, Monferno hesitated as it looked at Ditto. It seemed that this time, it could only rely on itself. But luckily, it had mastered the Lightly injured six doors, so it shouldn't be a problem... hopefully.

"Busy, busy..." Ditto comforted Brother Monkey. There was no helping it, now it also had a shot at competing with the main squad! After all, without item restrictions, it could borrow a Rainbow Feather or a Dark Feather. Even if it couldn't defeat the six main forces...

Transforming into a Superpower and Flying-type Lugia, or Fire and Flying-type Ho-Oh to compete against the Grass/Poison-type Venusaur from the younger group should be feasible, right?

"Banana..." Venusaur also had a troubled expression, for Fang Yuan didn't seem to plan on helping it Mega Evolve or use a Z-Move. Without these two abilities, in its normal state, it probably couldn't even beat the Super Ancient Mane Rock Werewolf.

This version seems to have been nerfed. But in the previous versions, it wasn't strong either!! Curse the designers!!

The Garlic Emperor is in danger!

"Oh, and to ensure that you all can perform perfectly in each battle, the Fang Yuan Grand Tournament will last three days. There will be plenty of time. Milotic and Victini will act as the healing team, responsible for restoring the status of each contestant," added Fang Yuan.

At this, Monferno felt a bit better. That's good, this way it didn't have any disadvantages.

As for Milotic, upon hearing it had to split effort to heal opponents, it felt a bit weary… but it was acceptable if Victini helped.

The other Pokemon, like Dragonite and Darkrai, were also carefully studying the rules while cautiously observing their companions.

No, not companions, they were enemies, rivals from now on.

Now, Eevee, Magnemite, Monferno, each Pokemon had thought of its own wish. Success or failure... it all came down to this!

"The eighth Fang Yuan Grand Tournament starts in two days. Now, you have two days to prepare—"
