Fish Frying Tournament, Start

After finishing the live broadcast, Aisha gathered the material he had recorded before the computer and started editing the video.

It had to be said that Iono could become a gym leader in Levincia, one of the most prosperous cities in the Paldea region, and in addition to her charisma and talent as an anchor, she was also at a very high level as a Pokémon trainer.

Aisha had only used one Gengar at the time of the broadcast.

Iono utilized her talents to the fullest within the battle, and at one point, she desperately fought back and tried to sabotage Aisha's tactics.

Of course... Who was Instructor Ai?

Even though Iono's level was not low, Aisha still won a grand slam over her without mercy.

After all... Misty had miserably lost to Aisha a long time ago.

Was Iono better than Misty?

However, because of this, the video footage of the matchup that was used as video material was also very exciting, and within the course of the matchup, it was filled with the game of both trainers that was full of wisdom and courage.

The effect of the program and the viewability was excellent.

Aisha was very grateful to Iono.

Instructor Ai decided that he would definitely use more powerful tactics in the next joint battle to repay this enthusiastic colleague.

Aisha was a person who knew very well how to return favors.

Iono must be very happy to know that...

"Ha~"

Aisha stretched on top of his chair and yawned.

The production of the video required a lot of effort.

Aisha needed to carefully select the appropriate material within the recorded video, focusing on editing out the core content surrounding the tactic of 'Toxic-Protect-Substitute', paired with the voice-over explanation, week after week, several times, to produce a professional explanation-oriented video.

"Me-ta-!!!"

After the live broadcast ended, shiny Beldum also ended up holding up the camera and filming Aisha.

This well-behaved child quietly floated towards his master's room after seeing Aisha's exhaustion from the heavy task of video editing and production.

A few moments later, shiny Beldum's sharp golden claws lightly squeezed a blanket, and it looked around the living room before floating towards Aisha.

Shiny Beldum put the blanket on top of Aisha's body.

"Huh?"

Feeling a hint of warmth, Aisha turned his head and saw shiny Beldum who seemed to be smiling with narrowed eyes.

"Good boy."

Aisha's heart warmed as he rubbed his fingers over shiny Beldum's polished and cold body.

The body of steel was cold and hard though.

The heart of a Pokémon was warm and soft enough.

Pokémon were indeed magical and spiritual creatures.

Although they possess intelligence not weaker than that of humans, their hearts are pure to an enviable degree.

If you treat them gently for a moment, they will be loyal to you for the rest of their lives.

Pokémon have such a high level of charisma.

In this world, even if they don't want to become trainers, most people like to adopt some Pokémon to accompany them.

Pokémon were the most compatible companions for humans.

"Hey..."

Aisha also smiled helplessly and shook his head a little.

Shiny Beldum was so sweet, he had to work on it himself.

"Okay, I must have edited the finished video tonight!"

Draped in a blanket, Aisha threw himself between the editing and production of the video with a clap of his hands, firing on all cylinders.

...

The next morning, Aisha opened his eyes from on top of the soft bed.

"Ha..."

As always, the familiar sensation of chest tightness traveled into Aisha's mind from all parts of his body.

"Get up, everyone."

Aisha skillfully lifted the covers, throwing away Caterpie, who was sleeping on top of his chest, dragging out Azurill, who was curled up under his arm and rubbing his waist, and grasping Charmander, who was hugging his calves and wagging its flaming tail outside of the covers, making people feel numb for fear that it would start a fire.

The three of them seemed to have found a place exclusively for themselves...

"This is not good, when you are young you can stick to me, what about when you grow up?"

Sitting on top of the bed, Aisha also fantasized about the image of his Pokémon still clinging to him all day long after evolving into their final stance.

Azumarill rubbing against his waist...

Well, Azumarill wasn't much bigger in total, so this was acceptable.

Charizard hugging his thigh...

Hiss, Charizard's size is then too big, he is afraid that the length of such an arm has already exceeded his legs, this is not allowed, too dangerous.

Rayquaza coiled on his chest...

Send, nothing to say, must not be this look.

"Tsk."

Aisha rubbed his forehead.

"Finding a new house to live in must be on the agenda."

Although it was said that Pokémon were very cute when they were young, sooner or later they needed to grow up...

His own Pokémon were all militants and would certainly not resist evolving.

Right now they were still petite and cute looking.

In the future, they will surely evolve into a handsome and mighty stance...

"Aye, lamentable."

Aisha now in turn felt what it was like for some parents to be despondent after watching their children grow up.

"Where is Beldum?"

Aisha looked around within the room, searching for the silver-white figure of shiny Beldum.

"Me-ta-!!!"

As if it had heard Aisha calling out to him, shiny Beldum's voice that was filled with a mechanical texture also reached Aisha's ears.

"Huh?"

Aisha looked at his pillow with a confused expression.

"Me-ta-!!!"

Shiny Beldum came out from under the pillow and squinted at Aisha.

Aisha's eyes twitched wildly at once.

"This is not allowed, Beldum, there's no need for this in the future, I appreciate your feelings, but we really don't have a shortage of pillows inside our house!"

Aisha held down shiny Beldum with one hand, explaining that it didn't need to replace his pillow.

"Hiss..."

Looking at shiny Beldum's sharp, golden-colored claws, Aisha sucked in a breath of cool air.

If this child continued to pretend to be a pillow for himself, maybe he would be accounted for under shiny Beldum's sharp claws at some point.

It was too dangerous.

"Me-ta-!!!"

Shiny Beldum was very understanding, and after hearing Aisha's words, it burrowed out of the pillow and drifted to the side in a well-behaved manner.

"Why don't I feel anything while I'm sleeping?"

Looking at the back of shiny Beldum, Aisha also touched the back of his head in doubt and fear.

According to reason, after sleeping with such an iron block on his pillow for a night, without a headache he should almost be dizzy for a while, but as a result, he didn't feel anything at all in the present.

It was too strange.

"My body has evolved to the extent that I don't feel anything even if I sleep with an iron block on my pillow?"

Looking at his palms, Aisha was dumbfounded.

Instructor Ai's purity has always been this high...

Afterward, Aisha got dressed under the attentive care of shiny Beldum - feeling the strange supernatural power fluctuations sweeping over his body, Instructor Ai's covetousness for psychic type Pokémon grew by the day, lamenting the fact that Pokémon with this attribute were indeed very intelligent and gentle.

"I like Gardevoir."

Instructor Ai began to fantasize.

"Mega Gardevior is awesome and usually eye candy, the idea of Gardevoir as a maid is genius."

Aisha felt like a genius.

Too bad shiny Beldum were lumps of iron.

Of course, not to mention the matter of maids, psychic type Pokémon have never been an extraordinarily important need for trainers either...

Whether it's for battle or field exploration, or for daily life, the existence of supernatural attribute Pokémon can provide great convenience for trainers and their companions.

However, the acquisition of this type of Pokémon belonged to the category of the unattainable.

"Forget it, it's better to continue to work steadily for now and talk about future dreams later."

Aisha didn't dwell on anything too much.

He opened the B station and discovered that the 'Toxic-Protect-Substitute' instructional video he uploaded last night had already created a huge stir in the Matchmaking Division, and now it had rushed to the top of the popularity list, and the heat was still rising, and the number of people who watched it was soaring rapidly, so much so that Aisha's number of followers had gotten just as much of a leap.

"Fantastic, this trend is great."

Watching his video acquire success, Aisha's mood was naturally good.

However, he also knew the key to the success he had acquired.

Iono had provided himself with a wave of heat as a link-up object, and after that, the dry content within the video really came into play, triggering the audience's enthusiasm.

On top of that, the recording of Aisha talking to Steven in the live broadcast room last night had also been flying around.

Everyone also knew that Aisha was close friends with the former Hoenn Champion - Steven Stone, and his status immediately soared to the level of Wallace.

"The playback volume has reached 1, and the account has been raised. I have been a fan of Instructor Ai for ten years."

"Awesome, the anchor is too dirty, the tactics are great."

"'Toxic-Protect-Substitute' has been learned, the party has faced off against gym leader, now I'm in the hospital."

Aisha looked at the group's comments rather happily.

The tactic 'Toxic-Protect-Substitute' wasn't a high-end and complicated operation, although the real-life matchups still tested the trainer's own qualities and reactions, however, the Pokémon that could use this operation were common enough and widespread enough that it could be considered a tactic that civilians were able to learn, which is why everyone's enthusiasm was said to be very high.

Red: "'Toxic-Protect-Substitute' uses Pokémon that have mastered the three skills of Toxic, Protect, and Substitute as the core of the tactic, and it's not too difficult for the trainer to get started, but the reality of the battle still needs to test the trainer's own operation and reaction speed, and they must have a keen awareness of the battle situation and a great reaction speed before the trainer can learn the tactic. Great reaction speed can be skillfully mastered, thank you for sharing, anchor."

Blue: "The simple combination of skills achieves ingenious effects. This is a reflection of the anchor's understanding of Pokémon cultivation and tactics. Grass, poison, and ghost-type Pokémon have natural advantages in mastering this tactic. At the end of the video, the anchor has also promoted many regular, common, and easy-to-breed Pokémon as users of the 'Toxic-Protect-Substitute' tactic. You can use them for reference."

Red and Green, who were closely following Aisha, were also the first to make their own comments.

The duo, who were well-known idols, were given the top of the comment section by their fans, and Aisha's gold was fully proven.

"Instructor Ai talked and laughed about Steven in the live broadcast last night, and today he was recognized by Red and Blue in the comment section, what background does he have?"

"The anchor seems to have traveled to the Hoenn region some time ago, his friend is Steven... Instructor Ai followed Steven to fight Groudon and Kyogre?"

"Instructor Ai might become an Elite Four trainer and Misty as a basic box, who's in favor and who's against?"

"An Elite trainer frying fish in the 'Rookie Tournament'?"

Everyone was quite vocal about Aisha blowing up fish in the 'Rookie Tournament'.

However... The viewers who felt pleasure at this were in the majority.

"Bombing, crazy bombing!"

"Instructor Ai don't worry about the fly, you'll take the blame if anything goes wrong!"

"People are frying fish, Instructor Ai is bombing fish eggs, too ruthless, but I like it!"

Aisha took a look at these pop-ups and indeed thought about 'Rookie Competition'.

The rules of this 'Rookie Tournament' were different from the past, and things weren't quite right.

The competition started a week later.

Now was the time for the contestants to prepare for the competition in a hurry.

Aisha looked up some information and found out that there were quite a few characters with superior family backgrounds or exceptional talent within the contestants.

"The genius girl who came from a mediocre background but worked hard to be admitted to the top trainer university, the weirdo who learned superpowers and was good at psychic-type Pokémon, the young master who gave up the family tradition of being a breeder and devoted himself to the path of a trainer... Hiss, it's really a gathering of heroes."

Aisha took a look and realized that the internet had even come up with "favorites" for this 'Rookie Tournament'.

"Weird, how can a fish pond publicize so much, those who don't know may think that they are participating in some 'Masters Tournament'."

Looking at the website's description of these contestants, Aisha revealed a bizarre expression.

There was no record of his own information above this website.

Normal.

There was definitely no one who would look favorably on a new trainer whose initial Pokémon was Caterpie becoming the champion.

Aisha didn't care either.

At that time letting Caterpie kill their Pokémon one after another with bumping seconds, this level of program effect was more powerful than anything else...

"Hah, boring tournament."

Aisha had also lost interest in such a thunderous rookie tournament.

Of course.

The body strengthening reward given by the system quest was attractive enough for him.

This reward was carried out a few more times, and by the time 'Hoopa and the Clash of Ages' started, Aisha might be able to tough a First-level Legendary Pokémon head on with Treasure of Ruins!

So that's why for the sake of his future, Instructor Ai would mercilessly blow up this fish pond.

...

A week was actually very short for a Pokémon trainer.

Aisha had done quite a few things in a week.

First of all, probably due to the fact that defeating Groudon and Primal Kyogre had invariably raised Aisha's stature, he had not only improved his Pokémon breeding and battle skills, but also his level of crafting Pokéblock had also rapidly risen under his clear mind.

The quality of the finished products arrived at a new level.

So much so that Caterpie, Charmander, and Azurill also praised it and turned into glutons.

Even shiny Beldum gave out as much praise after eating it.

After that, the rewards from Dayan League and Hoenn League were also put into Aisha's pocket, and the cultivation of shiny Beldum was naturally arranged under Steven's arrangement as well as there was no need to be distressed - he had gone from being a poor student to a rich man with a sizable deposit in one go.

Aisha naturally went on a buying spree of breeding resources for the other three Pokémon.

The quality of life produced a leap...

He also perfected the training program for the four Pokémons, and with the resources he had acquired, he began to exercise reasonably.

Aisha himself also seized the opportunity of the 'Toxic-Protect-Substitute' instructional video fire, frequently broadcasting his own battles, his popularity and fans were rapidly increasing, becoming a popular anchor with a good reputation and extremely good reviews.

Time passed so quickly.

A week later, Aisha installed five Pokémon balls on his special belt, walked out of his house, and headed to the arena of the 'Rookie Tournament'.

...

The place where the 'Rookie Tournament' was taking place was a famous Pokémon Battle Arena in the city.

Today, the outside of the arena was already crowded with participants and onlookers.

There was no need to mention the onlookers, mainly because the 'Rookie Tournament' did not sell tickets, so many people thought it would be a good idea to watch, so they attracted a lot of spectators.

The contestants were recent high school graduates, that is, prospective college students.

These people had graduated from their original schools with excellent grades, entered a university that specialized in Pokémon, and now that they had acquired their first Pokémon, it was the time for them to be proud of themselves.

Well, it's mostly about leaving the hell of the senior year inner volume...

They viewed the 'Rookie Tournament' as their whetstone.

This 'Rookie Tournament' was their first stage to shine high as trainers.

Whether they were preparing to win a good ranking in this tournament in order to obtain their trainer certificates, or were preparing to shine in the battles and show their talents, or were simply looking for trustworthy trainers whose strengths were comparable to their own in order to refine the results of the training they had been doing for a while, they had gathered in this arena.

"It's hilarious."

Aisha had no companions.

So that being said he sat in the corner of the hall after simply collecting his number at the front desk.

Countless new trainers with their initial Pokémon walked past within the bustling hall.

A hundred flowers blossomed.

Aisha also saw a ruthless person whose initial Pokémon used Magikarp to make up the numbers.

He and himself were comparable to Crouching Dragon and Phoenix.

"Contestant number 114, Aisha, head to field number 5 to compete!"

"Contestant number 50, Hall Lee, head to field number 5 to compete!"

Finally, the announcement called out the names of Aisha and his opponent.

"Caterpie, the first match is all yours."

Squeezing Caterpie's Poké ball, Aisha smiled a little and walked to field number 5.
