Fuchsia Stadium 

Boom !

Creeee!

The sky above the stadium was covered with fireworks on a certain morning.

All the people around the stadium were in high spirits as this was the day when the Youth Cup began which only happens once in a few years.

There was a large number of cameras all over the place to record the crowd and other things for a live telecast.

The Police force was deployed all over the place to maintain order and safety of the crowd.

"I have never seen so many people in one place, " Misty said looking through the glass wall of a spacious hall that showed the inside of the stadium.

"It's a special event after all. People are hyped up for action that they don't get to see often " Aoki said standing beside Misty.

All the seats in the stadium were filled with people who were there from all over Kanto to watch the preliminaries of the Youth Cup.

The fights that will be happening in the event are not simple fights but fights in the level of Pokemon league so the excitement was high.

The event will take place over two days selecting 3 among the top 80 participants.

The area where the Pokemon will be fighting was large too.

Generally, a match in such a big stadium occurs in two formats, either full stadium grass format or standard field size battle which had a specified area.

In this stadium, that specified area was special as it was a type-changing field.

Rock field, Grass field, water field, ice field, etc. were the fields that could be chosen.

"Aoki, do you know who will be the chief guests? "

"Yes, the elite four and Professor Oak will be coming"

"Eh!! The elite four !?" Misty exclaimed attracting some attention from the people around her.

"The event is significant after all.

They will be seeing a potential candidate that might one day join their ranks" Aoki said.

"Did that make you nervous Misty?" said an unknown familiar voice behind them making both of them snap their head in that direction.

It was Sabrina who teleported behind them. She wore a black full-sleeve dress that made her look very beautiful.

Her appearance immediately attracted a lot of attention from all the people present there for her beauty and status.

"We were just waiting for you Sabrina, " Misty said with excitement. She was meeting her after a while after all.

"As for your question, I am fired up more than ever! Can't wait to show you how much I am improved since our last battle"

It's been more than two weeks since Aoki last contacted Sabrina so he was kind of happy to see a familiar face too.

Aoki extended his hand for a handshake but contrary to his expectations, Sabrina leaned on and kissed him on the lips making him shocked.

Everyone watching them was shocked to see Sabrina kiss someone too.

Misty covered her mouth but had a smirk hidden underneath.

"People who had grudge against me have started to cause trouble…

You said you will support me as per our deal" Sabrina whispered in his ear as she toucher his chest.

"I said I would support you but not like this" Aoki whispered back.

"Doesn't matter, I will act as your lover from now on.

Who knows we might really fall in love someday~" Sabrina whispered.

"You know, hearing that line in your monotonous voice doesn't excite me a bit.

Where did you even learn to speak like that?" Aoki asked almost face palming.

"It should have worked, I even followed all the steps" Sabrina replied.

"Huh? what are you even talking about ?"

"I read a book titled 'How to seduce to man in simple steps ', seems like it didn't work as intended"

Aoki's eyebrows twitch upon hearing that.

"Ahem~I think that's enough for now, people are staring… " Misty said drawing their attention.

With another kiss, Sabrina separated from him.

Although Misty had a huge grin on her face, Aoki was in a bit of a dilemma.

'Whatever, why should I reject a beautiful woman? Who knows I might start liking her romantically one day'.

************

Slowly the participants in the tournament started arriving in the hall Aoki and the others were standing.

There were various people Aoki was familiar with like Ash, Gary, Jill, etc. while there were some gym leaders like the bug-type leader Fonsi and fire-type leader Alex.

Every participant present there was given a number ranging from 1 to 80. Aoki didn't know how these numbers were assigned but it was not hard to guess.

Since these numbers would decide the matchups, the league will make sure to evenly distribute the strong trainers to avoid them clashing too early.

With all the participants present, it was time for the guests to arrive.

With a short announcement, the representatives from the leagues started to enter followed by the elite four.

First was ice-type elite four Lorelei.

She was a red-haired gorgeous lady with glasses. She wore a tight dress that showcased her curves and skin making the male audience especially cheer loudly.

Next was Poison-type elite four Koga.

He had black spiky-hair along with sharp eyes. He wore attire similar to a shinobi and a mask that covered his face to his nose.

Next was Fighting type elite four Bruno.

A tall man with big muscles and a serious face that made him very scary. He wore attire similar to that of a fighting-type dojo master.

Next was Ghost-type elite four Agatha, the woman Aoki met in Lavender town and a stage zero Psychic. She didn't dress up too extravagantly and looked just like any other woman.

Out of all the elite four, Lorelei got the most cheers because of her beauty and curves making Bruno pissed.

"See…people value my beauty more than your muscles ~" Lorelei taunted.

"People are just delusional. Hmph !

Sooner they realize that these temptations will ruin them, the better" Bruno replied.

Finally came the Champion of the Kanto region Dragon Master Lance along with the most renowned Professor Oak.

Lance had red spike hair which was a deeper shade than that of Lorelei. He wore a blue suit and his signature Red cape while Professor Oak was in his usual attire in which he appears before the public.

The audience went crazy over the appearance of all these people in one place especially Lance as he was the champion after all.

All of them sat in the VIP area which had a clear view of the battle area.

With the speech of a senior league member, the event finally started.
