"What's going on with the training camp? Didn't you two get beaten enough by me..."

After a day of classes, Miss Ina went to the drama club's room to revise the script and characters. Filio originally wanted to sneak away, sneaking home under the pretext of going to the drama club to train with Korni, but he was

Antoine and Abe intercepted him on the spot, one on the left and the other on the right, and forcibly carried him to the playground.

There, a muscular man who could be called Antoine Pro Plus looked at the three of them with a livid face.

He is the head of the school's battle department and one of the best battle teachers, Thornton. He is also the leading teacher for this year's Salo Academy to participate in the Carlos Academy Youth Championship. He has two quasi-King Pokémon, and his ace is

The powerful fire trainer of King Yanwu is only 33 years old and can be regarded as a young talent.

With sharp ears, he heard Philio's complaints, and the bronze skin forged by the scorching sun seemed to be a bit darker.

Behind him were a dozen students who had good grades in school and performed particularly well in combat classes.

At this moment, they also have different expressions.

The fact that Filio and Nazi were equally matched in the exhibition match did not spread too much because Filio himself was relatively low-key and it was just a performance competition.

But in this small town, especially among these students whose parents are generally in their thirties and forties, this news has long been known to everyone.

Since entering the advanced class, Philio has hardly done anything himself. In the first year and the first semester of the second year, the little dream demon was still in a psychological shadow and could not fight at all. In the following year, he was addicted to

Training at night and strengthening in the evening, there is basically no waking time during the day.

Therefore, in the school, Philio didn't have his own partner Pokémon, and only used a few Pokémon bred by the school to fight. Although he always killed his classmates until they lost their armor, there was not much real feeling in the end.

Now, they already admired Philio very much and were convinced. After knowing that Philio is not only powerful in theory and battle simulation, but also a good player in battle, they no longer have the idea of ​​competing with Philio.
p>

In fact, they didn't even think about competing with Antoine and Abbey, the two powerful factions. They just aimed at the final fourth and fifth seats.

But Teacher Thornton, who leaves school and Sara during every vacation and travels around the world, has only been back to the college for three or four days and still knows nothing about it.

In this year's championship, Salo Academy got 5 of the 128 seats for the individual competition, which is neither too much nor too little. It is in line with the middle level of the academy in the Carlos region. The principal's goal is actually not too high: eight in the individual competition.

Strong, top four in the team.

Teacher Thornton, who has high hopes for Antoine and Abe, also attaches great importance to this year's competition. Therefore, Philio is good at everything. It is obvious to the naked eye that he has excellent talent, but he is not very good at fighting class.

The chief student Shang Xin hates that iron cannot become steel.

Coming from a combat team, he attaches great importance to training and attitude.

The organization of today's first training camp, as well as the comprehensive tryout within the team, is also to a certain extent to attract Philio's attention.

"Okay, everyone is here, line up. Today we will organize a selection within the team to determine the candidates for the individual competition and the order of the team competition. However, the quota is not fixed, you can come in and out. The first is the battle simulation."

Seeing that Antoine and Abe used force to bring Filio over as expected, he didn't say anything. He just had no expression on his face, silently crossed his arms, looked at the students with subtle expressions, and gave the order.

command.

"Ma~qi..."

Philio was a little tired after reading a book for a day, and the little dream monster above his head had overslept, and felt even more tired. He yawned lazily, and Teacher Thornton's head was covered with black lines.

He admired Philio's talent and ability very much, but he still hoped that he could be more diligent and not be so lazy.

It's just that he more or less wronged Philio and the little dream monster.

------------------

The battle simulator is a device developed by the Pokémon League and followed by various regional alliances that integrates training, entertainment, and competition. Its original intention is to allow many accurate players who have not left school or even have Pokémon partners.

Trainers can also become familiar with battles, as well as instruments and procedures that allow trainers to experiment and hone tactics when Pokémon are tired.

However, in the process of production, the gap between it and actual combat became wider and wider, so it gradually evolved into one of the competitive and entertainment sports. The real training significance has weakened a lot, although it is still very important.

important, but there are also many "loopholes".

From the first time he put on the helmet-shaped information receiver, Philio knew that his many years of gaming experience in his previous life had found its true and greatest use.

Even, because of the balance settings of the game, the applicability of those experiences may be stronger.

"Then let me go first, teacher. Can we rest for a while after beating them? My little dream demon trained a bit hard yesterday, I'm sorry."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit stiff, Philio raised his hand first. With Thornton's slight nod, he sat next to the special instrument and put on the information receiver.

"Who wants to challenge Filio?"

Looking around, Thornton only saw the students' evasive eyes.

Memories of daily combat simulation classes flooded into my mind.

Scenes emerged of Philio using a series of fancy skills such as poison, parasitic seeds, electromagnetic waves, avatars, guards, invisible rocks, magic stones, songs of death, etc. to "bully" his classmates and teachers.

The battle simulation with only four skill combinations allowed him to play countless tricks.

"Where did this kid get all these fantastic ideas..." He mumbled softly. Seeing that no one was participating, Thornton could only point, "Antoine, come on."

......

......

"Nut dumbbell, shoot it down!"

"Tropical dragon, hold on!"

A small puppet stood in front, and the light green light curtain blocked the "black hands" being photographed.

[The tropical dragon harvested the Star Peach Fruit, and its physical attack increased significantly.]

......

......

"Brikalon, gavel!"

[Tropical Dragon uses "Fly", and the effect is outstanding.]

While wailing, Brikaron, who was ready to attack, was knocked to the ground by the Tropical Dragon, whose attack was increased to the extreme under the influence of Dragon Dance and Star Peach Fruit.

The red energy tank, which symbolizes physical strength, instantly dropped from its full state.

[Brickaron loses the ability to fight, and the winner is Tropical Dragon. Player No. 2 lost all Pokémon, and Player No. 1 won.]

However, in five or six minutes, while everyone was stunned, Philio came up with a new set of tactics that had no effect but were indeed effective in the show.

Under sunny conditions, the Tropical Dragon, which possesses the hidden characteristics of Harvest and the Star Peach Fruit, which is the most "profitable" tree fruit, seems to have turned into the ultimate dragon that devours the sky and the earth, and stands in the way of Antoine's Pokémon.

The former substitute and "Flying", which cannot be hit by most attacks under the system's fairness principle, have become a wall of sighs.

In the clear sunshine on the screen, Antoine could only watch helplessly as the tropical dragon gradually gained the power to destroy the world, and then completely destroyed all his resistance.

"In the face of a fair mechanism, no matter how powerful it is, it is still fake. Some skills are fairer than others. Don't take it seriously. That's why I say this is meaningless, just for fun."

Patting Antoine on the head, Filio also felt a little sympathetic to his friend who had lost the most 52 games in a row at his hands, with repeated defeats and repeated defeats.

"It's just fun, why are you thinking so hard about it?"

Antoine opened Filio's hand, which was meant to comfort but was actually taking advantage of his seniority, and said angrily.

"I'm not thinking hard about it, I'm just thinking about it."

Philio spread his hands with an innocent look on his face, but secretly added a few words in his mind: If you just think about it casually by looking for some acrobatic routines from your memory.

"It is indeed a very good use of the mechanism. It seems that you have a deep understanding of sunny weather, Filio. However, these things are not so easy to use in actual combat. You have to remember this. Antoine, take the

Let everyone watch together, I will fight against Philio."

Thornton, who was equally dirty and was actually building a weather system, didn't know what to say, so he could only remind him dryly.

Then, he looked at the students who clearly didn't want to appear again, and decided to do it himself.

"Okay, Teacher Thornton, I would also like to ask you for advice."

Philio's smile is very sincere. He has indeed designed a very interesting lineup for Thornton, who specializes in the fire system and is one of the rare people who has built a prototype of his own system, especially a lineup that he is very good at.
p>

......

......

Put on your helmets and a new round of battle begins after the two choose their lineup.

[The battle format is "6 vs. 6", and the number of Pokémon present at the same time is "1". The winner is determined by the loss of combat ability of "all" Pokémon on one side. The number of skills each Pokémon can choose is set to

"4"]

After setting the four settings, the screen began to flash, and the twelve elf balls of the two people were arranged on both sides.

Facing the microphone, the two sent out their Pokémon at the same time and shouted the order:

"Go, rogue crocodile! Provoke!"

"Go, Coal Turtle! Saling!"

Then, looking at the rogue crocodile vividly making a provocative pose on the screen, Thornton, who had read the tactics first, darkened his face, and his bronze skin became a little darker.

"Rogue crocodile, black gaze."

"Coal Turtle, breathe fire!"

Immediately afterwards, a black grimace appeared behind the coal turtle, and the fire breath that was ready to go hit the rogue crocodile, but it had no final effect.

And then...

"Go ahead, big-billed gull! Fair wind!"

......

......

"Stinging Dragon King, water cannon!... You are such an actor, come back here!"

......

......

"The last one, Mr. Thornton. Swampert, mega evolution! Climb the waterfall!"

Although there were still four Pokémon present, and Philio rarely chose to fight head-on, Teacher Thornton, who had always advocated confrontation, saw that this set was very classic and targeted in Philio's previous life.

But after using the quick attack method on rainy days, which is still not well-known in this world, I froze in place.

Seeing the mega swamp monster, which is as eye-catching as a small mountain and showing off its muscles without scruples, and the Yanwu King who looks a bit petite standing in front of it, Thornton has understood everything.

He growled: "Fuck...fuck..."

......

......

"It turns out that Mr. Thornton will also be beaten into a baby by Philio. It's okay Antoine, be happy. Rounding off, you are almost the same as Mr. Thornton. And look, wasn't Mega Swampert defeated by you?"

After struggling to stand up on tiptoes and gently patting the shoulder of Antoine, who was nearly a head taller than him, Abe said teasingly.

"I say that, but I still feel... so cruel."

Antoine murmured to himself, looking at the battle situation projected on the big screen with a look of unbearability.

There, the Mega Swamp Monster, like a demon king, was showing its unrivaled invincibility and defeated Thornton's three Pokémon in one fell swoop before the rainy day ended.

------------------

"Ahem, Philio, your tactical skills are indeed very good."

After the defeat, Thornton's black face actually served as a good cover. At least, he didn't look so embarrassed.

After clearing his throat, he took off the information receiver, stood up quietly, walked to the students, and said loudly:

"Have you learned everything? Philio's tactics are the efficient use of weather. If you are in the wild, you will sometimes find that many Pokémon with the ability to change the weather can last longer than those in similar games.

The battle simulator is much longer, and in real actual combat, there will be no limit on the number of skills, and the combat methods will be more diverse. Therefore, combat cannot be judged entirely based on this simulated mechanism. Do you understand?"

"I understand, Mr. Thornton!"

Everyone said in unison, but it was inevitable that a few people had a bit of teasing in their eyes.

Philio himself nodded in agreement.

If victory or defeat is determined by a simulated battle, even if the league champion is present, he will still have the confidence to fight for 300 rounds. But when it comes to actual combat, at this moment, he actually still has a lot to improve, not just hard power.

Thornton, who knew that his words were not very convincing, did not say anything more. He just emphasized the precautions and arranged for everyone to conduct several rounds of group confrontation.

------------------

Philio, who simply beat the experienced teacher Thornton into a baby, took the little dream demon who was not interested in this kind of combat simulation that was not a real sword and gun, and confidently ran to a corner of the training ground.

.

There, there is one of his "good brothers".

The heavyweight non-evolved player in the Academy Breeding House who once acted as a temporary partner for the little dream monster when he didn't want to or couldn't fight: Bogaman.

Today, it and some Pokémon in the breeding house were also brought over by Thornton to serve as training partners.

However, their biggest job at the moment is to rest with Philio, who is reasonably fishing.

"Bojia!"

He saw Filio coming, stood at the front of the Pokémon group, and waved to Pogaman, whom he was most familiar with.

"Machi~"

The little dream demon happily came forward and collided with Pogaman gently in the air, looking very affectionate.

"Good afternoon, Pogaman, have you grown up a bit?"

Not wanting to be dirty, Philio sat directly on the ground, picked up Bogaman in his arms, and gently massaged his body.

Other Pokémon came over one after another and sat in a circle around Filion.

"Bojia~"

Seeing it squinting its eyes in enjoyment, Philio asked softly an old question again: "Speaking of which, Pogaman, you are so strong now, why don't you consider evolution?"

As a Pokémon with two stages of evolution, it is indeed a rare thing for it to not evolve when its energy reaches level 35.

"Bojia!"

Bogaman still shook his head firmly.

This little guy still feels that he is not strong enough at the moment and needs to continue to refine and become stronger before he can evolve with confidence.

"...Maybe we have different definitions of powerful." Filio scratched his head, but he didn't hesitate. He turned around and took out a general-purpose intermediate energy cube, "Well, today's addition

Meal, did the energy cubes that Teacher Milia and I prepared for you last time taste good to you? They should be better than those in the breeding house?"

"Bojia! Bojia!"

With the delicious food in front of him, Pogaman was so happy that he clapped his hands and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

After more than two years of getting along with each other, it has long lost the arrogance of its kind in front of Philio, and it is also an alternative among Bogaman, focusing on carving itself, treating its companions and the breeding house.

It seems that the Pokémon who are not strong enough are taken care of. Although they are not very old, they act like a big brother.

"Don't worry, there will definitely be enough to eat, and there will be plenty left for you to take back to the little guys in the breeding house, don't worry."

After gently touching Pogaman's head, Philio already knew what he wanted to ask and gave him a reassuring answer.

In the past two years, they have worked together countless times in combat classes, which has given them a deep understanding.

"Bojia~"

After rubbing Felio's chest with satisfaction, Bogaman felt relieved and began to eat happily.

"Machi~"

The little dream demon gently landed on Filio's head, found a comfortable position, and continued to take a nap.

There will be a fight soon, so you must take the time to have a good rest, otherwise you will not be able to play with Kerni at night.

Thinking like this, the little dream demon once again entered a hazy state of half-dream and half-awake.

------------------

Time passes by. For these students from Yeluzi, the battle simulation is basically a battle of cooking skills. In addition to the Pokémon you own, they are those powerful Pokémon that are considered to have higher racial talents. As soon as you

Punch me and kick me, and it will be over quickly.

Mr. Thornton, who knew his shame but then became brave, took matters into his own hands and taught the students more than one lesson. He proved his strength as an outstanding young trainer with a sunny system that has only been formed in battle simulations for the time being.

Such a battle also made many students realize that there is no inevitable connection between Philio's ability to beat Thornton into a baby and Thornton himself being a baby.

"Filio! Come and line up! The next item is the actual combat test!"

The hands were formed into a trumpet shape, and this time the caller became Abe.
Chapter completed!
