The system's Popularity Points has reached 3.4 million.

In other words, just one large-scale live stream brought him 600,000 Popularity Points, which is equivalent to his usual Popularity Points income in the Arena for two months.

Roy's departure from the control panel is a classic example of the "it's actually good" phenomenon.

After finishing his title defense, Roy did not choose to continue playing, but returned to the preparation room to collect his 2 million Poké Dollars reward for achieving 100 consecutive wins.

Although I have Agatha's inexhaustible card, the money in the card is Agatha's retirement money. This 2 million is money I earned myself. When I return to the Mt. Pyre, I can buy some Present for Phoebe.

Roy!!

Erika had already arrived at Roy's preparation room holding a fan light board. Just as Roy was about to touch his head, he felt a chill outside the preparation room.

It turned out that Erika was followed by Second Kiku exuded a strange Black Aura.

Didn't he just go to Unova and learn how to manage the Arena from his older brother for a while?

Why was my home raided as soon as I got back?

Upon seeing Second Kiku looking at him with a scrutinizing gaze, Roy greeted him politely.

Hello, Uncle.

"What uncle? Don't try to claim kinship with me. I don't know you, you brat."

Second Kiku was completely ungrateful; ever since he returned, his little darling only had eyes for Roy.

He even tamed a Misdreavus; he had originally prepared a Drilbur with good talent for Erika.

"Dad! What are you doing? Roy is greeting you, how can you be so rude?"

As the saying goes, every creature has its nemesis. With his waist pinned down, Second Kiku was relentlessly criticized by Erika, and he had no choice but to lower his head and apologize to his daughter.

Still unwilling to give up, he greeted Roy.

When Erika saw beads of sweat on Roy's forehead, she immediately took out a bottle of chilled Moomoo Milk from her Spatial Bracelet and handed it to Roy.

Behind him, Second Kiku's resentment deepened until Erika handed him a bottle, at which point he finally smiled, though it was a smile that looked worse than no smile at all.

The Second Kiku, Clay, really looks alike; the two brothers are practically identical.

But the other person's daughters are nothing like them.

Erika pushed Second Kiku, revealing the pink-haired girl behind her.

"This is my cousin, Ziyu. She's currently studying at the Blueberry Academy in the Unova Region, and she also wants to see your Misdreavus."

Ziyu?

Roy certainly recognized the innocent-looking girl in front of him. She was one of the guides who led him into the Academy in the game. She liked Fairy type but, like Clay, owned an Excadrill.

I remember being wrecked by the opponent's Plusle and Minun before.

Compared to Roy, Ziyu was more curious about Roy's Misdreavus.

Having just finished watching Roy's battle, Ziyu has been Analytic Roy's battle rhythm and found that he was almost entirely following the rhythm of Misdreavus, and the Shelgon had no room to maneuver and was defeated.

Especially the scene where the other party used the Draining Kiss, it almost made her want to use Draining Kiss on the Misdreavus herself.

Roy did not disappoint his two fans, releasing his Misdreavus to play with them. The Misdreavus displayed its unique charm, flitting between Erika and Ziyu.

Watching the two little girls completely captivated by the Misdreavus, Second Kiku felt disdain and muttered under his breath:

"Tch, what good is cuteness alone? I still think Ground type Pokémon are more reliable."

Ziyu heard Second Kiku's mutterings and said in a very serious tone:

"Uncle, I don't think this is good!"

Different types of Pokémon have different strengths; there's no such thing as one being inferior to another.

Ziyu (Hand fork)

Still the classic pose?

Second Kiku thought about the Misdreavus's performance in the battle just now, and it seemed to be true.

"You brat..."

When Erika saw that her father was still going to call Roy "brat," she glared at him, Second Kiku quickly changed his address:

"Roy, was what you said on the field earlier true?"

"A 100-game winning streak in Advanced Division?"

The teacher did indeed tell me to raise my Pokémon to the Beginner King level after achieving a 100-win streak in the Intermediate Division before attempting the Advanced Division.

Roy certainly knew that a hundred-game winning streak in Advanced Division was difficult; he was just saying that to gain Popularity Points.

"Oh?"

Second Kiku thought Roy would be arrogant because of his 100-game winning streak in the Intermediate Division, but now it seems that the opponent is well aware of his own limitations.

As expected of the disciple of the Elite Four of Kanto, he received the news on the very first day that Agatha brought Roy to the Arena.

Given his status as Elite Four, he would certainly be willing to befriend Agatha, but he wouldn't be so happy if it involved his daughter.

"Once you achieve a 100-win streak in the Advanced Division, I'll take you to the Unova Dome Arena. My older brother will arrange for you to have an exhibition match against Unova's champion Alder."

Alder?

Alder's Volcarona has not been severely damaged and remains the top champion in the Unova Region.

Facing a champion would probably generate a lot of Popularity Points, right?

This is Roy's current thinking.

"Good!"

Roy clenched his fist, a glint of Ember in his eyes.

Second Kiku watched as Roy ignited, though he didn't know what Roy was burning with.

But this youthful passion reminded him of the time when he and his older brother started the Dome Arena.

Suddenly Second Kiku felt that Roy wasn't so annoying anymore.

After leaving the Arena, Roy ran into Ryomitsu, whom he had just Liang Guang defeated, on the outskirts of the Arena.

"Congratulations, Roy, you've achieved a 100-game winning streak."

"Thanks"

Roy didn't believe that the other person had come outside to wait for him just to say congratulations, and that he had stopped to wait for what the other person would say next.

As expected, after congratulating him, Liang Guang revealed his purpose:

"Although I lost to you this time, I hope to have another battle with you after my Shelgon grows into Salamence."

Hopefully, your Misdreavus will evolve into Mismagius by then.

Liang Guang discovered that Roy in private was completely different from the slightly arrogant and conceited Roy he displayed in interviews on the field; instead, he gave off a very quiet feeling.

"Evolve into Mismagius? That's not necessarily true."

Roy plans to accumulate enough Popularity Points in the next couple of days to exchange for the Booster Energy. By then, his Misdreavus might be able to Transform into the Flutter Mane.

Liang Guang didn't understand what Roy meant.

However, he knew that some Pokémon Trainer would prevent their Pokémon Evolutions 'Pokémon tankiness, and instead have the other person hold Eviolite.

Is Roy one of them?

Liang Guang was unaware of Roy's thoughts, but he believed that a few years later, when Liang Guang's Salamence Flutter Mane, Roy would certainly hurl a string of profanities.

Because Salamence's Normal type and Dragon type moves will be completely ineffective against Flutter Mane.
