As soon as the cards were drawn, to Roy's surprise, a pink energy emanated from Alakazam on the nearby card table and entered the deck.

He actually wants to use Psychic type to cheat?

This was explicitly prohibited when Nurse Joy announced the rules just now.

A Ghostly Purple energy appeared in Roy's hand without him saying a word.

Before Roy could use his Ghost Power to intercept Alakazam's Psychic type, an alarm suddenly sounded in the arena.

A referee approached Alakazam and immediately issued Alakazam a red card.

Alakazam was detected by the game's Psychic type detector in the first round for illegally using his Psychic type to peek at other players' hands.

He was then taken away by Officer Jenny Liya Arcanine, who were responsible for maintaining order at the venue, and was banned from participating in the [Egg Cup] for the next three years.

Roy was speechless as he watched the Alakazam and the Psychic type Pokémon Trainer being carried out. They were about to play cards, and they still had to cheat?

The Chandelure located in Roy's shoulder recalled how Roy had first met Chansey and even tried to get him to cheat through Mind Communication.

However, he dared not say anything, fearing that Roy would abuse him.

Just as Roy, the landlord, was about to draw a card, Little Absol patted Roy's hand, telling Roy not to take this card, but to take another one.

Although he didn't know why Little Absol wouldn't let him take that card, Roy still listened to Little Absol and took the other card.

The same applies to the following cards.

When Roy took back his cards and turned them over, he was surprised to find that Little Absol had picked out two Kings, three consecutive bombs, and a seven-of-a-kind for him.

Is this... this what Super Luck looks like?

That's incredibly effective!

You can play your cards openly now.

This isn't Calamity Beast, it's an auspicious omen!!

Roy asked Little Absol hadn't taken the cards from earlier, Little Absol simply said that he thought the cards were a bit wrinkled and didn't look good.

Indeed, luck is something that cannot be explained.

I never imagined that Little Absol's Super Luck Ability would have this kind of function.

"Sweetie, let me touch you again."

Roy now touches Little Absol's head every time he draws a card, trying to turn his bad hand into a godlike one, but Little Absol always reminds him not to take the cards he wants.

Thanks to Little Absol's incredible luck and Roy's skill as the creator of the card game, Roy made it all the way to the finals.

At the final poker table, I encountered the five-time champion of the [Egg Cup], the uncrowned king, Chansey.

This is a battle between Serene Grace and Super Luck.

Roy and Chansey had almost the same score. In the last round, Roy won the landlord position and had a very good hand.

In the end, Roy won the sixth [Egg Cup] by one point, ahead of Chansey.

Roy thought Chansey, who was ranked second in the standings, would be very disappointed, but when the awards ceremony was held Chansey, the previous champion, actually hung a medal around Little Absol's neck.

She was also happy that someone else could win the championship. Although she lost this time, she will definitely win the medal that belongs to her next time!

Little Absol didn't recognize any medals at all, and started chewing on them. Roy had to replace the medal in Little Absol's mouth with a quarter of Dark type / Ghost type- type Pokéblock.

Looking at the medal covered in Little Absol's saliva and a tooth mark, Roy disgustedly cleaned it from his hand and then put it into his Spatial Bracelet for safekeeping.

Before leaving Lilycove City, Roy found Chansey and taught it all the other card games he knew, including Guandan, Tractor, and Chansey.

How well Chansey and Nurse Joy develop the [Egg Cup] next depends on each other's efforts.

Chansey's eyes were full of surprise. She was worried that the [Egg Cup] game might be too boring, but Roy handed her so many card games.

Two hours before Roy was about to leave, Chansey learned the rules and gameplay of these card games after playing just two rounds with Roy.

The only slight pity was that Roy's boat was in the evening, otherwise she would have definitely dragged Roy along for a couple more rounds.

On a deserted island in the vast ocean

A huge pirate ship and a hundred or so small boats are quietly docked in a man-made harbor on the island.

Upon closer inspection, many of the small boats showed signs of burning.

Inside a cave on the island, more than ten bottles of Antidote were discarded at Archie's feet. He had used all the antidote on the Crawdaunt, but the Crawdaunt's condition did not improve; its face remained purple.

Generally, even the toxins from Poison-type Pokémon Pokémon the Pseudo-Elite Four rank can be overcome by Crawdaunt without Antidotes.

However, Roy's Gengar's venom was too potent, leaving the Crawdaunt still in a state of Poison.

The crucial issue is that he can't go to the Pokémon Center yet. His image is still on the Hoenn League's wanted list, and he won't even need to go ashore; his identity will be exposed as soon as he arrives at the port.

Finally, after using ten more cans of Antidote, the toxins in the Crawdaunt were neutralized. The Crawdaunt spent the rest of the time struggling to withstand the damage caused by the Poison.

After being cured of the Poison, the Crawdaunt's two large claws drooped limply on the ground, and it seemed that it was not far from being completely unable to fight.

Today's plan was perfect, at least until Roy's Dragapult suddenly turned around to dodge the Sharpedo's Hydro Pump.

It's a pity; they underestimated Roy's strength and the two people who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Fortunately, the man didn't send his Pokémon to attack, otherwise Team Aqua would have been badly injured, if not killed.

Now that Phoebe has probably returned to Mt. Pyre, the difficulty of capturing Phoebe from Mt. Pyre is no less than ascending to heaven.

As Archie pondered how she should Snatch the Blue Orb in the future, Matt, who had been sent to intercept the young Prosecutor, came to Archie's side, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Boss, I... I've shaken off that Prosecutor who was chasing us."

"Well done. Have you calculated our casualties this time?"

"The calculation is complete."
