Pokemon - A Mystical Journey 243 Chapter 32 Tournament starts

Professor Oak has told him about Professor Westwood V. He is the current president of the Pokemon professor association and has done much research in the field of different Pokemon evolution as well as their habits. He also helps Professor oak in his Pokedex study.

He learns through the brochure that today he will be giving his lecture on the Pokemon slowpoke and Psyduck.

The lecture on the two psychic water-type Pokemon would help Alex and also his siblings, for he remembers that both of siblings, Ben and Clara got themselves a pair of Psyduck who seem to follow them around along with their shinx.

Sometime later,

In an auditorium,

The auditorium was large but it only has about fifty people who came to listen to Professor Westwood V. Most didn't seem to bother about Professor research and others who didn't think Psyduck and slowpoke were worth the time, just like Bill.

On the scheduled time, the seminar began and the professor started to spoke about their habits, habitats as well as their activities. He mentions about their food as well as their mating times. He even mentioned some cases when the two Pokemons show great powers.

Alex is completely focused on this. Just so he isn't interrupted he even left all his pokemon with Bill except his hidden guard, Gengar.

After the lecture ended, Alex was pretty disappointed as professor Westwood didn't stay to answer some of the doubts neither did the mention the reason for their lazy or confused behavior.

He didn't mention what makes them possess such great amount of raw psychic powers which eclipse most psychic Pokemons except for the final forms.

He returned to his room disappointed but he never mentioned how boring it really was, for he didn't want to be teased by Bill for his enthusiasm at going to the seminar.

Two days later,

Alex, Julius, Elsa and thirteen other participants under the age of twenty has taken part in this tournament.

The match is taking place in the four pools built inside the sea cruise. Four matches will take place at the same time.

Alex and the other participants wait for the tournament to start officially and they didn't have to wait long for the captain of the ship arrives and started the Tournament.

The captain who stood at the high platform so everyone could see him started speaking in the mic," Good morning to all passengers. I am Captain Bark, the captain of this ship. The tournament is organized by the Silph corporation so I thank them for their support.

Moving on, this tournament is a knockout match. We have a total of 16 participants under the age of Twenty taking part in the tournament.

And finally, in the field with rocks completely devoid of water, we will have our finals. The final round will be special for it will be a double match. Until four pokemon of the opposing side is down, the match continues.

All the matches except the finals will happen today while we will have the finals tomorrow so that our finalists can rest and give their all tomorrow morning. " He shouted out and the audience cheered in joy and enthusiasm for the matches which will unfold in front of them.

He waits for the shouts of enthusiasm to subside and then continues," I am sure every person here knows what is the rich reward the Silph corporation gas set for the winners but let me once again say it out loud so that the participants can fight in even more vigor and can entertain you greatly.

The prizes for the winner is based on their performance. For example,

Winner: 10000 dollars, two ultra balls

2nd rank: 3000 dollars, three great balls

3rd rank: 1000 dollars, five pokeballs

But that's not all, if they won in quick succession then the reward will be even more wonderful.

1st rank: 25000 dollars, three evolutionary stone(fire, thunder, water)

2nd rank: 18000 dollars, one evolutionary stone of choice

3rd rank: 15000 dollars, one ultra ball

If it is 2nd rank before, then

1st rank: 100000 dollars, evolutionary stone set( fire, water, thunder, grass, moon stone, sunstone), a Pokemon and also a mystery Pokemon egg. "

The shouts were, even more, louder than earlier ones.

The Captain wasn't done and he continued," The rewards are rich but let me inform you that this Pokemon egg is special. Any trainer will love to have someone like this pokemon in your team, for he or she will increase the team's strength greatly. You will like this reward. I can assure you.

And now without wasting any more of your time, I hereby start the tournament." He declared and he headed inside the glass room which can help view the matches from the higher position.

In the room he entered, Bill was seated. And by his side was the dratini who is still not qualified for the fight and electabuzz who won't be fighting in this match.

To prevent Dratini from getting hurt, Alex has passed on Dratini to Bill along with his electabuzz for their protection.

The captain who entered the room looks at the powerful electabuzz at Bill side and is surprised but didn't inquire anything about it from his boss.

He knows his boss will tell him if he needs to know it, and he isn't privy about matters he shouldn't be aware of. That's what has made sure he was able to become a captain except for his strength.

He greeted and spoke out," Sir, the fixture of the tournament has been set as per your request. Do you want me to do anything else?"

" No. It will be all. So aren't you curious why I did that?" Bill asked the captain.

Captain Bark looked at his new boss for some time and then spoke out frankly," Sir, I know that something need not be asked. If I have to know, I will be told. Over curiosity isn't so good for salarymen like us."

Bill nodded at his words," indeed. Being overly curious isn't good for one's health. Though it isn't something hidden. That girl there is a princess and the Pokemon League wishes to teach her manners by showing how low in the food chain she really is.

That's why they asked my dear friend Alex to do the job. It is all politics. You know, showing off the strength so that the rebellious intentions of the people under the league remains subdued. "

Captain Bark just nodded and didn't interrupt but when he stopped, he inquired his boss," but sir she seems too stubborn. I don't think that only one victory can bring her spirit down."

Bill wasn't surprised by this question since Captain Bark was a smart man and he can easily see what type of woman she really was. And Bill answered, "That's why he angered her earlier. She has set Alex as her target and for stubborn people like her, they won't do anything too outrageous until they overcome their opponents. So Alex has to make sure that she always remain in his shadow.

Anyways the match will be beginning soon."

Upon hearing it Captain Bark turns his attention to the battlefield while dratini whines at not getting to fight with others.

Bill just chuckled and gave him the Pokemon food and berry that Alex handed him to calm down Dratini.

In the battleground,

Alex and another trainer who is nearly twenty stands on the opposing side.
