Lying on the hotel bed, I unconsciously relaxed and sighed, thinking about the experience. While I don't regret my choice to compete, that doesn't mean I'm ready to face the audience.
The only thing I can do now is to think a little bit about what I can and cannot do.
I began to organize my belongings and smiled as Mimikyu dozed off after being exhausted.

After a stretch, I stepped out of the elevator, and I saw Hep practicing throwing the Poké Ball.
"Good morning."
Hop, who heard the voice, immediately replied "Good Morning, (Y/n)!"
Soon the elevator beeped again, and the elevator door in the middle opened to reveal Gloria, who greeted us cheerfully.
As soon as Hop finished warming up, he shouted expectantly, "Okay~ My legend is finally about to begin! Let's go! Let's race together to the Engine Arena!"

We ran to the Motostoke Stadium, I was amazed by the large number of contestants, everyone was wearing challenger uniforms, and we were surprised at the same time, we went to the counter and received our own challenger uniforms. I dusted off the hat and put it on again.

Reluctantly, I kept Mimikyu in the dusk ball until the end of the grand opening.
I put on my challenger uniform with the number 0 printed on my back.
Yeah, starting from 0, that's why I chose this number.

Plop, plop sounded, I swallowed the non-existent saliva and began to get nervous.
Chairman Rose is giving a speech. It is the duty of our challengers to defeat 8 gym masters and obtain 8 medals. Challengers with 8 badges are eligible to advance to the Champions Cup and compete for the championship.
Chairman Rose welcomes and introduces 8...there are 7 gym masters, namely Grass, Water, Fire, Ghost, Fairy, Ice, Dragon..., and the last one who is no longer present is a gym The Lord did not introduce the attribute, but judging from the color and pattern of the flag outside, it is Dark.

Soon it will be our challenger's turn to take the first step.


At the end of the opening game, all three of us changed back to our original costumes, and I also called out Mimikyu and hugged it. Hop was very excited, so was I, and so was Gloria, but I felt a little stressed.
Chairman Rose and the champion Leon walked towards us together, and the champion said, "It's finally time to start, Hop, Gloria. Then (Y/n), I saw that you accepted to participate."
Then President Rose came forward, said a few words to us, left us a gift, and left.
After saying goodbye to Chairman Rose, we left the arena.
The crowd was cheering, cheering on us challengers and seeing us off.

We walked for a while and stopped on the bridge. Gloria and I wondered why Hop stopped. Hop proposed to fight, but I refused, but Gloria agreed.
Gloria and Hop started a battle, and Gloria sent Butterfree... After that, I didn't take a second look at it, and after saying goodbye to them, I left the scene and went to the Wild Area.

Me and a stranger who is willing to help me challenge the Dynamax Pokémon...
"Shadow Claw!" I issued an attack command to Mimikyu, and it was also the last blow. Soon, Sinistea collapsed.
No, I immediately took out the dusk ball, the Dynamax Band made the dusk ball bigger, and I threw it out vigorously.

I waited nervously for the result, the huge ball started to shake..., for the first time...
the second time......,
the third time.........,

Ding!
I watched the ball change back to a dusk ball and ran forward to pick it up.
"Great! Mimikyu!"
"Un!"
I immediately called out Sinistea and greeted him, "Hello, come to Sinistea. I am (Y/n), let's work hard together."

After my training was done, I started preparing to head out to the Grass Gym, with Rotom navigating the route, floating ahead of me.
I was thinking about the new partner I got, thinking about what Pokémon to send to defeat the Gym Leader, and when I had no restraint attribute, the moment I looked at Rotom, I remembered something.
"Hm, Rotom."
"What's wrong, Roto?"
"Rotom, you can fight too, right?"
"Of course, Roto."
"Then...how about you and we fight together?"
"...Really, Roto?"
"Is me...always you help me, and forget you can fight, sorry."
Rotom looked at me a little moved, and I smiled a little, maybe very few people really want to let Rotom beside us join the battle.
"By the way, Rotom can go in some electrical appliances, right?"
"That's right, Roto!"
"Depending on the electrical appliance, it has different attributes... and will replace a skill. Now..." I took out the small electric fan I carried with me from my bag and smiled confidently. "We will need this."
