"To win Pursuit, use Bone Rush!"
Xiaoyun Seize this fleeting opportunity and follow the instructions.
Lucario stepped on the ground and approached again. Aura quickly condensed a piece of energy Bone Club in his hand, and swung it towards Mega Mawile who had not yet stabilized his body with a storm-like momentum.
Mega Mawile hurriedly closed his jaw and retreated, but was still hit by Bone Club, who staggered back a few steps.
Granny Maple's eyes froze, obviously he didn't expect Lucario's reaction speed to be so fast. His original relaxed demeanor completely subsided, and his voice became calm:
"It seems we can't do it without showing some real skills! Mawile, use Play Rough!"
Mega Mawile's eyes flashed with fierceness, and his jaws were instantly covered with a layer of pink energy.
It shook its head violently, its huge jaws like flexible whips, swinging Bone Club with precision Bite Lucario, and then used its force to pick, and the energy Bone Club was directly carried away.
"Fairy Wind!"
Immediately afterwards, Mega Mawile swung his jaws, and the pink energy instantly turned into a violent whirlwind.
Bang!
Caught off guard, Lucario was blown away by the strong wind pressure.
Xiaoyun felt the pressure coming towards him, but he didn't panic at all. He closed his eyes, completely Synchronize with Aura's Bond Lucario, and said softly, "Lucario, it's time for us to use that trick too."
Bond Lucario understood, a hint of determination flashed in the golden pupils, the Aura around him surged crazily, and once again a blue Bone Club condensed in front of him.
Granny Maple's pupils shrank slightly. "Do you still want to repeat the same trick? That's too naive! Mawile, continue to interrupt it with Play Rough!"
Mega Mawile roared, his jaws were once again covered with pink energy, and his body spun like a pink top, rushing towards Lucario again.
Lucario held Bone Club tightly with both hands. The moment Mega Mawile spun towards him, he exerted force and swept away towards Mega Mawile.
Boom boom boom!
The energy Bone Club collided with the Play Rough of Mega Mawile, and the huge Tackle force caused the ground to crack into Spider Web-like lines.
At this moment of stalemate, Lucario exerted force, pushed Bone Club forward, and then released his hands.
Bone Club dissolves instantly, turning into pure Aura and blending into its fist.
"This is..." Granny Maple's pupils shrank suddenly, as if he realized something.
Xiaoyun opened his eyes, which seemed to be shining with the same light as Bond Lucario, and shouted loudly:
"Lucario, use our full strength."
"Fist of Heaven!"
"Luca!!"
Lucario raised his fist high, and the rich Aura hit Mega Mawile with a power that shook the world.
Mega Mawile tried to dodge, but was Aura Lock-On unable to move at all.
Boom--!
There was no shocking explosion as imagined, the fist turned into a bright beam of light, directly Infiltrator Mega Mawile's body.
The dazzling light spread instantly, covering the entire open space. The light was soft but full of power, making everyone present subconsciously close their eyes.
When the light dissipated, Mega Mawile fell softly to the ground, the evolutionary light on his body faded, and Normal Forme was restored.
Lucario slowly put away its power, and Aura gradually dissipated. It turned around and showed a smiling expression to Xiaoyun.
Xiaoyun raised his thumb to him and said with a smile, "Well done."
On the other side, Granny Maple took back Mawile and walked forward with admiration in his eyes:
"What a boy, what a Lucario, this bond and strength really opened my eyes to my mother-in-law, and I am so convinced that I lost!"
"You're welcome."
Xiaoyun scratched his head, with a polite smile on his face, and exchanged a few polite words with Granny Maple, as a way of retaining respect for his senior.
Granny Maple nodded, then turned to look at Korrina aside, his eyes became solemn:
"Girl, I have nothing to teach you. There is still a long way to go. I hope you will not let down your own efforts or let down the bond between Lucario and continue to walk on."
Korrina nodded vigorously and bowed to Granny Maple: "Thank you, mother-in-law. I will definitely remember your teachings and work hard to become stronger!"
A few days later.
The warm sea breeze carried the salty and humid breath, and the group officially stepped into Shalour City.
The blue water and the skyline are seamlessly connected, and the arched classical stone buildings on both sides of the street are scattered in an orderly manner.
Whether it is the fashionable Hustle or the classic and heavy, it shows that this is a city worth traveling to.
"Look, that's our Shalour City's Tower of Mastery. Isn't it spectacular?"
Back at home, Korrina excitedly introduced the beautiful scenery of his hometown.
Several people stood by the railing of Huanhai Avenue and looked in the direction of Korrina's finger. On the other side of the coastline, they saw a small island standing quietly, with a magnificent and solemn stone tower standing on it.
The tower body composed of bluestone has been washed repeatedly by the waves, hiding and appearing again between the ebb and flow of the tide.
Dawn asked curiously, "It looks like a lonely tower standing on the sea. Can this one be accessed only by boat?"
Korrina shook Metronome: "No, after the tide goes out every day, a road will emerge on the seabed. We can walk directly to the tower along the road."
"Moreover, that is the sacred place that symbolizes the origin of Mega Evolution."
"Our ancestors built Tower of Mastery here and passed on the power of Mega Lucario to this day."
A steady voice suddenly sounded.
This voice sounds so familiar.
Korrina turned around quickly and saw his old man Gurkinn standing behind him at some point, with his hands behind his back and looking deeply at the ancient pagoda in the distance.
She stuck out her tongue subconsciously. "Grandpa, why did you suddenly appear? You scared me!"
Gurkinn A gentle smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Welcome back. It's much faster than I expected. How was the training during this period? Did you suffer a lot?"
He knows Maple's training method, which may be adaptable to others, but it is quite torturous for Korrina's temperament.
Korrina's chest straightened out, he raised his chin and said proudly, "Humph, thanks to your concern, I have successfully mastered Mega Evolution!"
Whoever you look down on is not the same as Mega Evolution.
"Not bad, it really didn't disappoint me."
Gurkinn nodded happily, it seems that people still need more training.
How long can we wait for him to be happy? Korrina stretched out his hand to him.
Gurkinn raised his long eyebrows. "What for?"
"Give me back my roller skates."
Gurkinn rolled her eyes angrily and said helplessly, "Leave it alone at home. Besides, who would put roller skates on them?"
"Let's go, Xiaoyun, Dawn, I'll take you to my house!"
Korrina immediately ran forward. It was obvious from his appearance that he really wanted to play.
On the way to Shalour Gym, there were crowds of people on both sides of the street, and people gathered in front of various stalls. The air was filled with the aroma of food and the chatter of trainers.
Dawn asked in confusion, "Is there any event going to be held in the city? Why is it so lively? It feels like there are people everywhere."
Korrina thought about it and said, "Well, it is said that Pokémon Showcase will be held here tomorrow. I guess people are either here to compete or to watch the show."
"Pokémon Showcase? Tomorrow?"
Dawn eyes widened.
It's over, I haven't participated in the competition for a long time and I forgot to pay attention to the competition information. No wonder it was quiet all the way. I thought Pokémon Showcase was not popular.
Korrina looked at Dawn and asked curiously, "Yes, Dawn, do you want to watch the game? We happen to be together, and I also want to join in the fun."
Gym competitions and other competitions can be postponed if the competition fails.
Xiaoyun on the side saw this and said, "It's not that I want to watch, but Dawn wants to participate."
To be honest, after staying in the gym competition for so long, he forgot that Dawn was still Coordinator.
Korrina looked at Dawn and said in surprise, "Ah? Dawn Why are you participating in that? They are all exhibition matches. You are not a gym player."
What are these trainers doing here? Is it possible to play PK?
Dawn scratched his face in embarrassment. "Actually... I am essentially a Coordinator, and being a trainer is my side job."
???
You? Coordinator?
Korrina said she didn't understand. It was Dawn who had been sparring with her in the past two days.
That guy, the fight was so fierce, but you said you were studying acting?
Although I don't understand it, I respect it.
"Although it's a bit incredible, I support you! Come on, I'll take you to the registration office."
Korrina quickly suppressed his surprise, picked up Dawn and set off.
Although the best time to register has passed at this time, Korrina, as the current Gym Leader of Shalour City, still has some respect in the local area.
She brought Dawn to the registration point and briefly communicated with the staff. For that matter, it was better to just stuff someone in.
The next day, Dawn officially participated in the first Pokémon Showcase.
Eighty-five-seven, eighty-five-seven...
As the exciting music played, Spotlight suddenly focused on the center of the stage. Pokémon Showcase's exclusive host Pierre appeared gorgeously in a suit covered with sequins and holding a golden microphone.
He opened his arms exaggeratedly and his voice was infectious:
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Mew festival for girls, the Pokémon Showcase rookie preliminary competition-Shalour Showcase, is about to begin!"
"Let the cheers be louder!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience suddenly burst into violent sounds.
At the same time, a Klefki also floated over.
Pierre looked at Klefki and continued:
"Considering that there are many newcomers participating for the first time this time, I will introduce the rules in detail here."
He raised his hand to signal, and a diagram of the event process immediately appeared on the stage background screen:
"The competition is divided into two major stages. The first stage is the theme performance. Participants will compete in groups of three. Only one person from each group can advance to the next round;"
"The second stage is free performance. Everyone needs to cooperate tacitly with Pokémon to fully demonstrate Pokémon's unique abilities and performance creativity. The one with the highest score will be the winner and will receive Princess Key, which symbolizes glory!"
"If you collect three Princess Keys, you will be able to join the Master Tier senior competition. The player who wins the Master Tier senior competition will wear the bright crown of the Kalos performance world and become the current Kalos Queen!"
Wow wow wow!
Pierre's voice became more and more passionate. He raised his hand and three crystal clear giant key images were instantly projected above the stage.
Immediately afterwards, the key transformed into a gorgeous crown inlaid with gems, shining under the light.
Pierre bowed in greeting with a bright smile:
"Then, let me, Pierre, lead you into this performance world full of surprises and touches!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire audience was instantly excited, cheers and whistles intertwined, and the glow sticks in their hands seemed to merge into a twinkling galaxy.
In the candidate room, Dawn, dressed in gorgeous clothes, was adjusting her skirt in front of the mirror, with Lopunny accompanying her docilely.
She was wearing a long white dress with fine silver thread patterns embroidered on the hem. The simple Pearl necklace around her neck made her skin even whiter.
This is the outfit she once won the name Sinnoh Princess.
"This scene is really worth remembering."
Dawn murmured softly, but suddenly felt a little nervous in his heart.
I've played a lot of gym games, and I'm still a little uncomfortable suddenly stepping onto a performance stage.
Alas, I don't know where Korrina and Xiaoyun are now.
"Miss, you are so beautiful. Are you here to compete too?"
Behind him, a clear voice suddenly sounded, with a bit of curiosity.
Dawn turned around following the sound and saw a girl with long dark brown braids standing behind her. Her pink and black dress made her full of energy. Bulbasaur at her feet was looking at Lopunny curiously.
Dawn didn't know that her appearance was like bringing Spotlight with her. Even though she was standing alone in the corner, her exquisite dress and calm demeanor still made the girls in the waiting room breathless.
Oh my god, where did this beautiful sister come from?
Dawn smiled softly, "Yes, this is my first time participating in Pokémon Showcase. I didn't quite understand the rules of the competition that the host just said."
This is true. Although Pokémon Showcase and Pokémon Contest are similar, they are similar after all.
This is indeed our first time competing, and we are still newcomers.
"Really? This is my second time competing. My name is Shauna, from Vaniville Town. So, we are rivals!"
Shauna raised his face and said with a smile.
In fact, she was attracted by Dawn's temperament the moment she saw him, and she didn't know what his personality was like. It took a lot of courage for her to dare to talk to him.
Listening to Shauna's tone of voice being friendly even though he was talking about his opponent, Dawn immediately fell in love with this lively girl and began to introduce himself:
"I am Dawn, from Sinnoh Twinleaf Town, please give me your advice."
Dawn introduced herself, and her first impression of Shauna was also very good.
Shauna opened his eyes in surprise. "Sinnoh Region? It's so far! Did you come alone?"
Dawn shook his head slightly. "That's not true. My boyfriend came with me. We traveled together."
"Eh--!"
