Chapter 273
On the way, Xiaozhi and his group also helped Miss Junsha and the police officers to capture a criminal called Kaito Rhydon.
Later, Xiaogang fell ill unexpectedly, so Xiaozhi and Xiaochun also took on the responsibility of taking care of Xiaogang for a day.
Now, the group came to a place called Lux Town.
As the name suggests, the people in this place are very strong.
As soon as the group walked into the town, they saw a Croc and a Nidoking wrestling.
There was a man commanding next to them, who seemed to be Croc's trainer.
"Uh!"
Crocodile roared, pushed Nidoking down with a backhand push.
"Okay, next, Croc, throw it out."
Then, another Heracross went up, but it was also easily thrown away by Croc.
Behind it, there was a Blue King, but it was still no match for Croc.
Just a few minutes later, Croc had won three consecutive victories.
"Well done, Croc." The man said.
At this time, an old man walked over and praised,
"Well, the fight was quite exciting. Your Crocodile has amazing courage."
"This year's Pokémon Sumo Tournament, my Pokémon and I will definitely win the championship." The man said confidently.
Xiaogang walked up and asked,
"Excuse me, you just said the Pokémon Sumo Tournament, are you going to use Pokémon to compete in sumo?"
"Yes, who are you?"
"Hello, I'm Xiaozhi from Pallet Town, and these two are my companions traveling with me, Xiaogang and Xiaochun. We are traveling with the goal of participating in the Johto League."
"Oh, that's why, you are traveling with the goal of the Johto League,
Hello, I'm the trainer of Crocodile and the owner of this Pokémon Sumo Hall. My name is Raiden,
The old man next to me is the chairman of the Pokémon Sumo Association, Boss Xiaozhisuke."
"Wow, grandpa is so awesome." Xiaochun said.
"Hahahaha, that's just a title, nothing.
Besides, you guys are so lucky to come here on such a special day. Today is the day of the Pokémon Sumo Tournament. Tyrant is practicing for this competition." The chairman said.
"Excuse me, what is Pokémon Sumo?" Xiaogang asked.
"It is a competition where special skills such as water guns and flames are prohibited. You fight each other with bare hands."
"Bare hands, fighting each other?"
"These restrictions make the cooperation and interaction between trainers and Pokémon more important, creating a new way of fighting, which is very interesting." Raiden said.
"Raiden and Tyrant are considered to be the most likely pair to win the championship this year." The chairman said.
"It sounds very interesting. It would be a pity if you don't take a look before leaving." Xiaogang said.
"Take a look? Xiaogang, what are you talking about? If you don't participate in a competition that is beneficial to your growth, it will be a big loss. "Xiaozhi said.
"Xiaozhi, welcome to join us. By the way, I'll be honest with you. I encountered the sumo competition here on my way to challenge the Johto League, and then I got deeply involved and didn't want to leave." Raiden said.
"By the way, Mr. Chairman, I want to participate in the Pokémon Sumo Tournament. Are there any restrictions?" Xiaozhi asked.
"There are no restrictions, except that according to the rules, the participating Pokémon must weigh more than 80 kilograms."
"I see, no problem. "
Xiaozhi counted the Pokémon he had captured so far, and those weighing more than 80 kg were:
85.5 kg Blastoise, 88.4 kg Kentaro, 88.8 kg Croc, 90.5 kg Charizard, 100 kg Venusaur, 100.5 kg Chrysalis, 168 kg Windy Dog, 210 kg Dragonite, 220 kg Dragonite, 400 kg Crystal Steelix, and 460 kg Snorlax.
Xiaozhi chose Snorlax without hesitation, because Snorlax was the heaviest Pokémon he had. Another thing is that in the original animation, Xiaozhi used Snorlax to participate in the Pokémon Sumo Tournament and won it very easily.
After completing the registration, Xiaozhi took the Snorlax that he had just exchanged from Professor Oak to weigh himself.
As a result, Snorlax crushed the scale as soon as he got on it.
Xiaozhi could only apologize repeatedly.
The staff said that although the specific weight of Snorlax was not measured, it was in line with the rules at a glance, so there was no need to measure it.
That afternoon, the opening ceremony of the Pokémon Sumo Tournament began.
The contestantsThey entered the venue first with their respective Pokémon, including Xiaozhi and Raiden.
Xiaogang and Xiaochun sat in the audience to watch the game. After all, it was an annual event, and there were many spectators today, and the venue was full.
There were not many participants in this competition. Including Xiaozhi and Raiden, there were only 16 people in total.
There were Tyrannosaurus, two Circus Bears, Talon, Strange, Rhydon, Blastoise,
Swiper, Nidoking, Blue King, Heracross, Golduck, Milky Can, Swamp King, Big Tongue,
There were also Xiaozhi's Snorlax and Raiden's Tyranitar.
It is worth mentioning that the eight Pokémon in the middle did not weigh 80 kilograms. It is not known whether they entered through some backdoor or they are relatively large in their respective groups.
The chairman served as the host this year.
He stood on the stage, holding a microphone, and said,
"Everyone, this year's Pokémon Sumo Tournament is here again. Which Pokémon will win this year? I look forward to your fierce battle.
The winner of this tournament can get this good prop, the King's Certificate, and the prize is a year's worth of Pokémon food.
The competition adopts an elimination system. Which Pokémon will defeat many Pokémon and stand at the top of this year? Please work hard with the goal of Yokozuna level."
After the opening ceremony, the players returned to the lounge to prepare.
Raiden knew Xiaozhi and took the initiative to walk over to talk.
"Oh, Xiaozhi, you plan to use Snorlax to participate in the competition." Raiden said.
"Yes, the Pokémon here are so strong, all big guys." Xiaozhi said.
"Of course, after all, this kind of competition has weight requirements for participating Pokémon, and everyone has specially trained their Pokémon for this competition." Raiden said.
"Mr. Raiden, who do you think is your biggest competitor among these players?" Xiaozhi asked.
