Inside Professor Oak's Laboratory.
"Gary, what is he doing!!"
"Won't Gary offend Kanto's gyms if he behaves like this?"
The people of Pallet Town gathered in Professor Oak's Laboratory to watch the Indigo Plateau Conference.
Because they knew that two trainers in the town had made it to the fourth round, more and more people came to watch. They also saw Gary defeat Melissa, but they didn't expect Gary to say such a thing in the interview.
"Professor Oak, is it really okay for Gary to behave like this?" Delia asked.
"Although I also think that what Gary said is wrong, the fact that he can say it shows that the level of gyms in Kanto Region is really not good." Professor Oak said.
Although Gary is frivolous, he will not let go for no reason. He must have encountered something during his travels.
"Haha, thank you for the interview, Gary. You should take a rest." The female reporter didn't dare to let Gary continue to talk. After all, she is the reporter of Kanto TV Station and is also a member of Kanto Alliance.
The interview was broadcast live throughout the entire process. If Gary continues to speak, Kanto Alliance will have no face left.
...!
After four rounds of competition, the fifth round will be held at the Stadium, which is the main venue.
After the fifth round, starting from the sixth round, all players will compete, 6V6.
Before the fifth round, all players will have a day to rest.
Professor Oak and Aunt Delia also came to Indigo Plateau the next day to watch Gary and Ash's game.
Everyone agreed to meet at noon.
At the entrance of the player village.
"Ash! Gary!"
"Oh, you all look very good ."
Gary and Ash came together, and Delia and Professor Oak came up to greet them warmly.
"Ash, Gary, to congratulate you for reaching the fifth round, Auntie will make you a hearty lunch." Delia said.
Ash, Professor Oak and others were very confused.
When Delia came here, she didn't tell Professor Oak that she would cook by herself, and it was almost noon, so there was no time to prepare the ingredients.
"Don't worry, the ingredients are ready." Delia took everyone to the restaurant in the player village.
When everyone was wondering how Aunt Delia was going to cook, they were taken to the restaurant kitchen. Then, Delia assisted the ingredients in the kitchen and made a big meal for everyone, regardless of the restaurant staff's dissuasion.
Gary and others felt very embarrassed, but the players' expenses in the player village were free, so Aunt Delia's doing this was not a violation.
It must be said that Delia's cooking skills are still good. Although they are just some simple home-cooked dishes, they are all delicious and can be regarded as the ceiling level of home-cooked dishes.
"If you win the fifth round, you will have a 6-on-6 Full Battle. Are you mentally prepared?" Professor Oak said.
Full Battle Normal only appears at the Alliance Conference. Normal Pokémon battles are at most 3-3, and even gym battles are at most 3-on-3.
Because the 6 vs 6 battle takes too long, and the Trainer can only bring 6 Pokémon in total, if all Pokémon are defeated, there will be no Pokémon to use, so Normal battles will not be full-time battles.
Professor Oak is worried that Gary and Ash will not be able to adapt to full-time battles after entering the sixth round.
"Don't worry, Grandpa, I plan to train my pokemon during the full-time battle." Gary said.
"Ah? Training?" Ash was confused and didn't quite understand what Gary meant.
"In short, it means training my other Pokémon. After all, only three Pokémon can be used in the first five rounds of the game. In order to ensure promotion, I can only train one Pokémon at most. " Gary said.
Ash was silent immediately. It was not that he did not want to train, but he only had 10 Pokémon available. It was enough to deal with these four rounds. If he really entered the sixth round, Ash would have no Pokémon to train.
In Professor Oak's Laboratory before, Gary told Ash that he had captured too few Pokémon and could not support the subsequent battles of the Alliance Conference. Ash also gradually felt a little exhausted.
"The players who can advance to the sixth round are all very strong. Gary, is it really okay for you to train?" Misty felt that Gary was a little too aggressive.
"The Pokémon of those players are not that strong. It is said that all players can fight, and there are only three Pokémon at most. The other three Pokémon are basically to fill the numbers. "Gary said.
Although the Pokémon Center can heal Pokémon, fatigue still needs time to recover, especially the later the preliminary round is, the more you don't want to be eliminated.
Since the third round, the players dare not train anymore. After all, it is not easy to get here. They dare not train randomly. However, if they enter the sixth round, the main Pokémon in their hands will be exhausted and their combat power will decline greatly.
After all, this is not a race. In a running competition, you can run with less effort in the early stage, and then gradually use your full strength after slowly advancing to the competition.
In a Pokémon battle, if you lose a game, you will be eliminated directly. Therefore, the rules of the Indigo Plateau Conference are slightly unfair. The selection should be based on a points system.
" Gary, what you said makes sense, but what you said in the interview yesterday was too arrogant. You should be more restrained next time. " Professor Oak reminded.
"I'm telling the truth, Grandpa, you don't know how chaotic the management of famous gyms in Kanto Region. Even the Cinnabar gym closed the gym without authorization, treating the gym as a joke." Gary said.
Brock, Misty, and Sabrina all looked at Gary. They were all gym trainers.
" Gary, you make sense. My gym is indeed very chaotic in terms of management."
"Me too. My gym is also known as the weakest gym. "
Both Brock and Misty knew that Gary was telling the truth, and they both took the initiative to admit the problems of their own gyms.
Brock is only a temporary gym leader. Even if the gym leader trainer wants to find a temporary replacement, he needs to apply to the Alliance, and he can't just let his offspring take over.
The trainer of the Pewter gym recorded by the Alliance is Flint. If Brock wants to be the gym leader, he also needs to pass the assessment of the Alliance investigator.
As for Misty's gym, it's needless to say that Misty's three sisters are not qualified to be gym trainers. If the Alliance suddenly assesses the Cerulean gym, it is very likely that they will fail and be disqualified from the Alliance gym.
Sabrina's gym is now normal, but Sabrina used to be a gym leader illegally, and even imprisoned challengers, which is illegal.
As for other gyms, most of them are not qualified, and some gym owners even use the gym to do business.
