Chapter 198 The Eve of the Conference
Just one week was spent playing cards, fishing, and bird racing. Early in the morning on the last day before the registration deadline, Zhou You rode the leftovers across the Champion Road to the Quartz Plateau on the east side of the Silver Mountains. After registration, he The Pokémon Center that enters the player village will no longer come out.
During the competition, the contestants' village will provide free food and accommodation to the contestants. Many trainers have arrived in advance to feel the warm atmosphere of the approaching competition and make final adjustments with their elves in the specially provided venue.
As for traveling around, you can rest in your room without any worries.
"Qiaoqiao, do you plan to stay in the room during the conference?"
Eden sat upright on the bed doing nothing and complained: "After the flame runners arrive at the contestant village with their lives this afternoon, the opening ceremony will be tomorrow. It would be great to go out more and maybe meet the Four Heavenly Kings."
"You are not a child who is so excited about receiving the beginner elves that you stay up late and oversleep. Even if the official competition is tomorrow, you still have to stay calm." Zhou You squinted his eyes and explained in a low voice.
Not only does he not plan to pass the torch, but he also does not plan to participate in tomorrow's optional opening ceremony (although there will be a contestant entry stage), and he does not want to wander around the contestants' village during the competition.
Don't forget Xiaozhi's past experience. He doesn't want to end up in such a bizarre plot just because of chance.
Zhou You quickly added: "And don't look at me like this, I'm actually preparing for the battle seriously?"
"Can you prepare for war to the point where you almost lose your temper?" Eden didn't believe it.
"Ahem, okay, let me talk to you."
After a long yawn, Zhou You wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
He stood up, took out a pen and paper from his backpack, leaned on the desk, and drew the flow of the game on it.
"There are 256 people participating in this Quartz Conference. First, they have to be eliminated in the four venues of water, grass, ice, and rock until only 16 people are left. Then they have to compete in the main venue to determine the top eight. During this period, all the battles are 3v3. .
"Starting from the quarterfinals, it will be a 6v6 all-out battle."
“The players’ elves, props, and four types of moves must be registered in advance after confirming the venue and opponents the night before. As for the battle venue and opponents, the contestants will be notified through the computer in the room.
“Considering that the previous battles are all 3v3 battles, in order to maximize the winning rate, it is easiest to win by sending three main players.
"But those intelligence dealers are not just for free. If the main force is exposed before the top 8, there is a high chance that they will be targeted at 6v6."
In this situation, it is a wiser choice to send out weaker elves to win the top 8 while hiding your main elves.
If you have room, sending a lineup that can mislead your opponent into choosing a lineup that will be restrained by your main lineup in 3v3 is also a way to win.
In this kind of important conference, the real battle begins long before the trainers from both sides enter the battle field.
"So you are really thinking about the conference?" Looking at what Zhou You wrote on the paper, Eden looked in disbelief, "But Qiao Qiao, you don't have many elves to choose from, right?"
Eden (Zoroa), Arthur (Charizard), Leftover (Wind Speed Dog), Fairy Milk-007, Caracalla, Ye Yibu, Dutiful Son, and Frozen Bird.
These are all the elves that travel around.
According to the data scanned by professional instruments in Dr. Ohki’s research institute:
Eden lv49, Arthur lv35, Leftover lv36, Fairy Milk lv13, Caracara lv15, Yeib lv30, Bringing Dutiful Son lv22, Frozen Bird lv50.
Not to mention that Frozen Bird is still being treated by Dr. Yamanashi for Yutama Syndrome.
Apart from the trump card of Eden, the only ones who can really take the lead are Arthur, Shengfan, and Ye Yibu.
How do you choose 3 out of 6?
There was no choice at all.
"Unfortunately, that's the case, but it's not entirely true."
Zhou You circled the restricted 4 skills on the paper: "So for us, the most effective way is to hide moves and guess moves."
The same lineup also has different playing styles.
At first glance, the fire elemental spirit seems to be restrained by water, earth, and rock. In the next second, it may use solar beams and crazy volts to defeat its natural enemies and hammer them to the ground.
Zhou You has always paid attention to filling the blind spots of the elves.
By the way, the limit of 4 in the Quartz Convention does not refer to "4" but "4 types".
No matter how many offensive moves there are in this series, they are all considered to be of the same type.
In addition, different variations of moves and non-attack moves are each counted as one type.
Take the fire-breathing dragon with fire and flying attributes as an example. It can use any number of fire/flying attribute skills in a game and only occupies 1 skill slot. In addition, it can also use 3 non-native attack skills ( Such as Dragon Wave, Original Power, Solar Beam) or 3 change skills (such as Tailwind, Sunny Day, Dragon Dance).
But if it's Eden, even if it can transform into a normal/ghost due to some special reasons, only its initial evil attribute will count as its original move.
"Fortunately, at present, the only opponent worthy of my early analysis is Qinglu, and his lineup is already clear to a certain extent."
Qinglu will definitely choose to restrain the lineup and tactics of the Sunny Team under the premise of the Rainy Team.
"What's the conclusion?" Eden, who was dizzy from reading human text, simply skipped the analysis step and listened to the conclusion.
"The conclusion is to ignore Green for now. Before the quarterfinals, I will try to use only Leafeon, Tai Xiaozi, Leftovers and you for 3v3 battles. As long as your body is not exposed, the illusion feature is always an unsolvable first sight kill."
As he spoke, Zhou You wrote down the team configuration including Pokémon, carry-ons, and movesets in the previous games, as well as strategies when encountering different venues or difficult enemies.
He obviously planned to hide Charizard until the end to avoid people thinking that he was a trainer specializing in fire attributes (after all, there are two fire).
After taking a look at Zhou You's team configuration, Eden asked in surprise: "Tai Jing burst? Qiao Qiao, are you going to expose Tai Jing so early?"
"You also know that except for Xiao Xiannai, no one in our team has awakened the Tai Jing attribute of the original system. It can't get the 2x adaptability bonus and it can't completely change the attribute like in the game. Tai Jing is destined not to be my trump card. The sooner it is used, the sooner the CD will be."
At this point, Zhou You has more or less discovered the basis for the elves to awaken the Tai Jing attribute:
Eden was once on the verge of death, so he is Tai Jing Ghost;
Charizard and Windy Dog have a certain amount of dragon attribute factors in their bodies, so they are Tai Jing Dragon;
Leaflete said that he hoped to become Ice Eevee when he was still in the Eevee period, so he is Tai Jing Ice;
The single sword sheath was once a sacrificial sword for praying for rain, so it is Tai Jing Water;
Tailing Xiaozi is Tai Jing Super, maybe because... it is super powerful?
"How could it be, Tai Jing Ghost is obviously my original attribute."
...
In the evening of the same day, the torch runners arrived and the registration of the contestants was closed.
Zhou You's first opponent was also displayed on the computer - Water Field, Magician Duowu.
"?" Zhou You had an impression of this person.
Wasn't this the rubbish that Xiaozhi used a hairy crab to kill three people in the original series?
How did he get Xiaozhi's opponent?
