Although it was only a small competition it was held very formally and there was a ring specially used for fighting.
For this small town the annual p1 Fighting competition is a rare event.
After successfully entering the venue with his gang ash and brock successfully obtained their number plates with their registration vouchers on the backstage.
Then he and Brock was waiting for their numbers to be called in the player rest area backstage.
Anthony who had a conflict with ash a few days ago is also here.
At this time he was sitting silently explaining something to his Hitmonchan.
It seems that there are special preparations for this p1 Fighting competition.
When he looked at ash and his gang he had a frown on his face.
Of course Ash doesn't care about the person who wasted his decade of life and not even won a fighting championship with a single Pokemon.
It is worth mentioning that Anthony's daughter Rebecca also came over trying to persuade her father to return to their family.
But she seemed to have been frustrated by her father.
At this time she was two positions away from Anthony.
She plucked up the courage to speak several times but failed in the end.
After sizing up Anthony ash started to look at the other players in the rest area.
Because it is a rare event in a small town there are relatively many contestants participating.
Most of them are young people in their 20s. Although there are some uncles like Anthony they are very few and they are basically just for fun.
Anthony who devoted all his energy to the p1 Fighting competition failed to win a championship in more than ten years.
who was a self proclaimed specialist of fighting type Pokémon is a clown.
When ash observes other people others also observe ash.
Compared to Anthony who has never won a championship other players are more wary of ash and brock a new face Trainers that has never been seen in this town.
Looking at ash's overly young face the other players who guessed that he was a Rookie Trainer who just started traveling this year they snickered.
They thought that he had just started traveling and even though that Primeape looked like a good fighting type Pokemon he was very energetic.
But the gap at the Trainer level cannot be bridged.
Although the P1 Fighting Competition is the most entry-level fighting event it is not that easy to win it successfully.
These people have more or less special training and understanding.
A Rookie Trainer from out of town has a low chance of beating them.
so the people silently excluded Anthony and ash from the championship race among themselves.
contestants began to glare at each other trying to overwhelm opponents with their momentum.
During the boring wait ash held Misty's and Sabrina hands and started to play with their hair while the family of three playing and laughing Brock who saw this was depressed and had a dark clouds over his head.
"Next game No. 65 versus No. 32."
Ash who was so bored that he hit Yawn looked at the number 65 in his hand and stood up excitedly.
In the first battle of the P1 Fighting Competition ash and primeape faced a opponent with a tall and sturdy look who looked to be about 20 years old.
This man looked a bit vulgar with his squinting eyes and there was also a hint of hostility in his eyes when he looked at ash.
He has been single since he was born and he can't even get laid now he see a teenager who was younger than him with not one but two cute girls hugging him.
He hates every couple's with a burning passion.
Isn't this is like a knife stabbing him in the heart?
All lovers should be burned on crosses!
Helmeppo narrowed his eyes and shouted in his heart with enraged mind and then sent out his Pokémon with an expressionless face.
It was a Grass type pokemon Bellsprout.
Although Bellsprout is not of a high level with its flexible body it is quite capable of fighting larger Fighting-type Pokémon.
In the original plot of Kanto at the Indigo Plateau Conference a girl named jannet who was the final opponent of ash In the prelims used a Bellsprout that left a very deep impression on people.
Knowing that from the original plot ash did not underestimate this Bellsprout.
Commanding Primeape to go up and with a powerful focus punch.
As a result bellsprout couldn't even sustain the first blow of Primeape and immediately lost his ability to fight.
"That's it?"
Ash looked at helmeppo whose face turned a little darker and took Bellsprout back with narrowed eyes and couldn't help but complain in his heart.
To be honest if it were not for the mission reward.
If all these opponent's are of this level, then this kind of p1 Fighting competition will be pretty boring for him.
But think about it it's just an entry-level fighting event in a small town.
Primeape who had basically no training and no tacit understanding of cooperation was able to win the championship because of the bond he forged with ash now his bond with him is at full level.
With this ash and brock continuously advancing towards the semi finals the people who thought ash was not even worth to be warry become dumbfounded and cursed in their hearts.
"first semifinals No. 64 versus No. 65."
now it was the time of the battle between ash and brock both stood facing each other as both graveler and primeape were both egar to fight against each other.
ash saw their fighting sprit so he gave the command.
"primeape give him a welcome present use low sweep"
"graveler use defense curl to with stand the kick"
after that primeape used a powerful low sweep attack which was quite powerful for graveler's defense to take it took a good amount of damage.
"primeape use thrash and took a hold of graveler and finish him with a sesmic toss"
"oh no graveler use rock tomb to stop primeape to catch you "
graveler used rock tomb but primeape's thrash move was powerful enough to destroy the incoming rocks and after that he took hold off graveler and used a powerful summersl**sesmic toss attack and making graveler to loos the match,
after that ash and brock shook their hands to show they enjoyed the match and went to see next rounds.
The opponent in the finals was surprisingly Anthony.
Ash thought that this old guy would be eliminated by others before he could make it to the finals.
At this time Anthony who had already reached the highest stage of his life felt that his dream was about to come true.
Win the p1 Fighting Competition Championship and start the road to Fighting Competition starting with that Pikachu boy!
At this time Anthony felt that he had been helped by a god all the way through the game.
Looking at ash and Primeape as opponent he smiled confidently.
he decided to win this championship to show his wife and daughter that he is talented!
What is a Rookie compared to a talented fighter like him?
