Pokemon: Master of tactics

Chapter 321

After only a few minutes, the fireworks were over and Professor Oak appeared on the large podium in the Arena with a Microphone.

Before Professor Oak could say anything, many viewers started clapping and screaming.

This favorable response and enthusiasm displayed how popular Professor Oak is in Kanto.

Samuel Oak was very popular with the general public and at the same time was a person with many influential friends. Among his many friends, there are also many very powerful Trainers.

He was a childhood friend of Agatha. They remained good friends and top-class Pokémon Trainers until Oak stopped battling and became interested in Pokémon research. Even though Agatha said that he became soft and started to regard him as a fool, Agatha still sees Oak as a friend.

Besides, Samuel Oak was not an unimportant person in the Kanto Alliance. Although he is no longer the Champion of Kanto, he is still affiliated with the Pokémon League as an adviser.

Alex looked at Professor Oak with a slightly surprised expression. He didn't think Professor Oak would show up in this tournament. after all he is probably the strongest Trainer in all of Kanto

He understood roughly from the Games how strong Professor Oak should be. Although in this world, Alex can not assume his knowledge of the games as an unbreakable truth, Professor Oak was a champion in this world too, so that he should by no means be much weaker than he is in the Games.

If Alex had to guess who is the strongest trainer in Kanto, he would say without hesitation that it is Professor Oak. even if he had no real proof.

Professor Oak showed a warm smile when he felt the audience's excitement. He waited until the audience calmed down a bit before He said.

"Welcome to the Kanto Champion tournament. These 64 participants in front of you are the ones who made it so far after the preliminary rounds and are among the strongest trainers in all of Kanto. Each of these participants belongs to the absolute Elite of Kanto. Please give them a big round of applause. "

When He said that, the audience roared with applause and cheering.

Professor Oak waited until the crowd quieted down, and then he said, "On the first day, the participants will fight 3 v / s 3 Pokémon battle against each other until only 16 participants are left. Tomorrow, these top 16 participants will fight until we get our 4 semi-finalists for the third day. So after three days we will know who of these participants is the strongest and will win this year's Kanto Champion tournament. "

"Ok, now that everything has been said, let's start the tournament!"

Alex and the other participants went back to the waiting room after the opening ceremony.

At the same time, the several large TVs in the room began to show which participants were fighting against each other in the first round.

Alex looked who his opponent is in the first round and he started to smile.

---------

Participant 26: Misty

Pokémon: Milotic LV 45, Quagsire LV 46, Lapras LV 47, Dewgong LV 47, Golduck LV 49, Starmie LV 50,

----------

Alex knew that it is extremely lucky that he doesn't have to fight a top 16 participant in the first round. Even if he is sure that it was no coincidence that he got Misty as his first opponent.

in the second round, there are only 32 participants left so that Alex has to fight against a top 16 participant in the second round.

Although Misty wasn't a weak opponent, she is at least not bad for possible opponents in the first round that Alex can get.

Alex also saw that his fight with Misty is the first fight of the tournament and that he should be ready in 10 minutes.

He was a bit surprised that it would be the first fight of the tournament, but after thinking about it, it started to make sense.

All top 8 participants cannot show a thrilling match in the first round and therefore are not a good choice for the first round.

In comparison, the "rivalry" of Alex and Misty is interesting for the audience and the similar strength should make it a relatively close match.

Misty saw when she got an opponent and didn't show any surprised expression. as if she had already expected it.

Alex sat quietly without explaining his tactics to his Pokemon as he usually did.

Because he had expected that he would get Misty as an opponent, he had a tactic against Misty's team and discussed it with his Pokemon after he saw Misty's team.

He had several tactics for Misty that can be used in combat depending on the actual situation. Although he can't plan everything perfectly because he didn't know all the information about Misty Pokemon.

He already saw the information of the 3 strongest Pokemon from Misty Pokemon but, that was more than half a year ago and therefore is no longer really up-to-date.

As Alex was looking relaxed at the TV, a staff member walked in his direction. Behind the staff member was Misty, who followed him.

"Participant 20, right? Your fight is about to start. Please follow me."

Alex and Misty walked out of the participant room as they followed this staff member.

The staff member said that Alex should enter the arena first and that Misty should wait here briefly.

'A dramatic entrance? haha, I like it. ' Alex felt a bit like a boxer getting an intro before his fight.

When Alex entered the arena first, he heard applause and scream from the audience who recognized him.

Alex couldn't hear what the commentators were saying but he was sure they were listing his successes, as he had seen that they do so many times on TV at such important fights.

Misty made an entrance almost immediately afterward and she also got many cheers from the spectators.

Alex even noticed that her cheering was a little louder and more intense than his.

But he didn't feel that it was unusual. The fact that he was almost as popular as a Gym leader is quite surprising in his opinion.

The referee also appears in the arena and he looked at both participants as he explained the rules again.

When the fight was only a few moments away from the start, the spectators began to cheer louder and louder.

Alex, who experienced such an intense atmosphere for the first time, felt a bit excited himself.
