Chapter 198 The Eve of the Conference
In just one week, he spent time playing cards, fishing, and racing birds. Early in the morning on the last day before the registration deadline, Zhou You rode Leftovers across the Champion Road and arrived at the Quartz Plateau on the east side of the Silver Mountains. After registering, he plunged into the Pokémon Center in the Athletes Village and did not come out.
During the conference, the Athletes Village will provide free food and accommodation to the contestants. Many trainers have arrived in advance, feeling the warm atmosphere of the upcoming competition, and making final adjustments with their Pokémons in the specially provided venue.
As for Zhou You, he rested in the room without worries.
"Qiao Qiao, do you plan to stay in the room all the time during the conference?"
Eden sat on the bed and complained idly: "After the Olympic Torch Runners come to the Athletes Village with their lives this afternoon, tomorrow will be the opening ceremony. It would be great to go out more. Maybe you can meet the Four Heavenly Kings."
"I'm not a child who is so excited about receiving a beginner Pokémon that he stays up late and oversleeps. Even if tomorrow is the official competition, I still have to keep a normal mind." Zhou You narrowed his eyes and explained in a low voice.
Not only did he not plan to pass the torch, he also did not plan to attend the non-mandatory opening ceremony tomorrow (although there would be a segment for the players to enter), and he did not want to run around in the players' village during the competition.
Don't forget Xiaozhi's previous experience, he did not want to be killed by such a bizarre plot just because of chance.
Zhou You quickly added: "And don't look at me like this, I am actually preparing seriously?"
"Preparing for the competition to the point of almost drooling?" Eden did not believe it.
"Ahem, okay, let me talk to you."
After a long yawn, Zhou You wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
He stood up and took out a pen and paper from his backpack and leaned over the table to draw the process of the competition on it.
"There are 256 participants in this Quartz Conference. First, they will be eliminated in the four venues of water, grass, ice, and rock until only 16 people remain. Then they will fight in the main venue to determine the top eight. All the battles during this period are 3v3.
"From the quarterfinals, it will be a full-scale 6v6 battle."
"The elves, props, and four combinations of moves that the players will use need to be registered in advance after confirming the venue and opponents the night before. As for the battle venue and opponents, they will be informed to the participants through the computer in the room.
"Considering that the previous battles are 3v3, in order to maximize the winning rate, sending out 3 main forces is the easiest to win.
"But those information dealers are not just for show. If the main force is exposed before the quarterfinals, there is a high probability that they will be targeted in the 6v6. "
In this situation, it is a wise choice to send out weaker Pokémon to win the quarterfinals while hiding your main Pokémon.
If you have enough time, sending out a lineup that can mislead the opponent to choose to be restrained by your main lineup in 3v3 is also a way to win.
In such a high-importance tournament, the real battle has already begun before the trainers of both sides enter the battle field.
"So you are really thinking about the tournament?" Looking at what Zhou You wrote on the paper, Eden showed an incredible look, "But Qiao Qiao, you don't have many Pokémon to choose from, right? ”
Eden (Zorua), Arthur (Charizard), Leftovers (Arcane), 007, Caracalla, Leafeon, Tai Xiaozi, and Articuno.
These are all the Pokémon Zhou You has.
According to the data obtained by the professional instruments in Dr. Oak's laboratory:
Eden lv49, Arthur lv35, Leftovers lv36, Little Fairy lv13, Caracalla lv15, Leafeon lv30, Tai Xiaozi lv22, Articuno lv50.
Articuno is still being treated for Jade Disease by Dr. Yamanashi.
In addition to Eden, the trump card, the only ones who can really take the lead are Arthur, Leftovers, and Leafeon.
How can you choose 3 from 6?
There is no choice at all.
"Unfortunately, that's the case, but it's not entirely true." Zhou You circled the point on the paper that limits the 4 skills: "So for us, the most effective way is to hide and guess. ”
The same lineup can also have different ways of playing.
At first glance, a fire-type Pokémon that seems to be restrained by water, ground, and rock may use solar beams and crazy volts to beat the natural enemy to the ground in the next second.
Zhouyou has always been careful to fill in the blind spots of the Pokémons.
By the way, the limit of 4 in the Quartz Conference does not refer to "4" but "4 types".
No matter how many attack-type moves there are, they are counted as the same type.
In addition, different changes and non-type attack-type moves are counted as one type each.
Take the fire-flying attribute Charizard as an example. It In a match, you can use any number of Fire/Flying attribute skills and only use 1 skill slot. In addition, you can use 3 non-type attack skills (such as Dragon Wave, Primal Power, Solar Beam) or 3 transformation skills (such as Tailwind, Sunny Day, Dragon Dance).
But if it is Eden, even if it can transform into a normal/demon for some special reasons, only the initial evil attribute counts as its own type of moves.
"Fortunately, at present, the only opponent worth analyzing in advance is Green, and his lineup is already clear to a certain extent."
Green will definitely choose the lineup and combination of the Sunny Day Team under the premise of the Rainy Day Team.
"What's the conclusion?" Eden, who was dizzy after reading human words, simply bypassed the analysis steps and listened to the conclusion.
"The conclusion is, don't worry about Green and Green. Before the top 8, I will try to only use Ye Yibu, Duozi, Zhanfan and you for 3v3 battles. As long as your true body is not exposed, the hallucination characteristic will always be an unsolvable first sight kill."
As he spoke, Zhou You wrote down on paper the team configuration for the previous games, including elves, carrying items, and matching moves, as well as strategies for encountering different venues or difficult enemies.
He obviously planned to hide Charizard until the end to avoid people thinking that he was a trainer specializing in fire attributes (2 fires after all).
After taking a look at Zhou You's team configuration, Eden asked in surprise: "Tai Jing's explosion? Qiaoqiao, are you planning to expose Tai Jing's transformation so early?"
"You also know that except for the fairy milk, no one in our team has awakened the Taijing attribute of this system. If you can't get the 2x adaptability bonus and can't completely change the attribute like in the game, Taijinghua is destined not to be me. His trump card has been used long ago.”
Now that things have happened, Zhou You has more or less discovered the basis for the elf's awakening of Taijing's attributes:
Eden was on the verge of death and became a Tai Jinggui;
Charizard and Wind Dog have a certain amount of dragon attribute factors in their bodies, so they are Tai Jinglong;
Ye Ibrahimovic said that he wanted to be Ice Eevee when he was still in Ibrahimovic, so it was Tai Jingbing;
The single scabbard was once a sacrificial sword for praying for rain, so it is Tai Jing Shui;
The reason why the filial son is Tai Jing Chao may be because...it is super capable of fighting?
"How could it be possible? Tai Jing Gui is obviously my true attribute."
…
In the evening of the same day, the torch runners were in place and the registration deadline for contestants was closed.
The opponent of Yuyou's first battle was also displayed on the computer - the water field, the magician Dowu.
"?" Zhou You had an impression of this person.
Isn't this person the same trash fish that Xiaozhi used to skewer three hairy crabs during the Muyin period?
Why did he still win against Xiaozhi?
