"Beep~~~"
This is the newly added pink glittery Butterfree!
There are ten Pokémon in total!
Not much, but nothing less.
They are all top-notch in terms of strength.
Aside from the new additions, there's only Butterfree from the early days of the Gym and Dragonair, which has only recently evolved.
The remaining eight Pokémon have all reached the Elite Four level, and are the strongest. Charizard, at the peak of the Elite Four, has also reached the threshold of becoming a Champion!
Furthermore, Crimson himself has successfully comprehended and fully condensed the "momentum" that represents stepping into the ranks of the "strong"!
Starting in spring and now approaching autumn and winter, nearly six months have passed, and Crimson has already achieved what most trainers in the world, even those Elite Four trainers, have accomplished in most of their lives.
In fact, it is even more excessive than insufficient.
Furthermore, Crimson still has plenty of room for growth!
...
...
Back in Pallet Town, after resting for a day or two, Red and his Pokémon resumed their training.
Due to the overwhelming number of participants at this Quartz convention, the venue needed to be expanded, resulting in a two-week delay in the start of the convention.
Therefore, Crimson still has a month and a half to train with the main force, so that he can improve his strength to the next level.
Meanwhile, since Red's training location is in the backyard of Professor Oak's lab, she naturally can't avoid being bothered by Professor Oak.
After Professor Oak's persistent pleas, Red finally agreed to the so-called "full body examination."
Professor Oak: You've been traveling for so long, and your Pokémon have fought so many battles with you. You must have suffered quite a few injuries, right? Training is training, but it can also leave behind hidden ailments. Let me give you a thorough full-body checkup. What's wrong?
Besides that, there's Ash, who seems to train his Pokémon diligently, but he's always distracted by various things, big and small.
Although Red reminded Ash a few times because of Hanako, he gave up when he saw that Ash didn't take it to heart.
Then there are Blue and Gary. Blue has only seen Red once since he returned to Pallet Town, and Gary has never seen him since. Gary is seen occasionally, but he is not in Pallet Town most of the time.
They were all outside, making various preparations for the Quartz Conference.
As for Azure, it naturally stays by Red's side, training its Pokémon alongside Red.
And so time moved on little by little in this way, and it was thought that things would continue in this routine until the Quartz Conference.
·· ···Requesting flowers· ······
But who knew?
Two weeks later, with less than a month left until the Quartz Conference, an event disrupted this routine.
...
...
The back mountain of Dr. Oak's research institute!
An open space.
At this moment, the red Pokémon stopped their training, as did the blue ones, and everyone watched intently.
In the center of the open space, a fire-breathing dragon, its entire body enveloped in flames, was rising in power!
Previously, after successfully using Mega Evolution to enter the Champion rank, Charizard seized the opportunity to become a Champion and spent a week getting close to the Champion threshold.
...... ... ...
And now, after spending more than half a month, I am finally about to take that step and enter the champion class!
Now, we are at the crucial moment of Charizard's breakthrough.
Crimson and Azure, along with their Pokémon, all watched expectantly as Charizard broke through its limits in the arena.
"Roar~!!!!!"
With a dragon's roar that resounded throughout the valley, the enveloping flames suddenly exploded, plunging the entire valley into ablaze.
Immediately afterwards, an oppressive force that made everyone and Pokémon breathless spread out, and Charizard's figure slowly descended from the sky.
Charizard has successfully broken through from the peak of Elite Four to the early stage of Champion, officially entering the Champion class!
"Roar~~~"
However, Charizard, which had just broken through to the Champion rank, hadn't even had time to celebrate with its brothers when it suddenly sensed an aura rapidly approaching.
With a somewhat serious expression, he raised his head and looked into the distance at the sky shrouded in layers of white clouds.
Deep within that sky.
A bright orange figure, flapping its tiny wings, sped through the sky at an imperceptible speed!

Pikachu!
"Click-clack!"
"Crack!"
"Bu~yi~~"
"La~woo~~"
"Roar!"
"Goo~ Ooh~~"
"Hey~!"
"Beep!"
"..."
Upon seeing Charizard successfully break through, the Pokémon all gathered around, gazing at Charizard with longing and chattering excitedly.
"Charizard has successfully broken through to the Champion rank! Congratulations, Red!"
Azure looked on with delight at the Charizard that had successfully broken through, and congratulated Crimson beside her.
At only sixteen years old and just six months into his career, he already possesses a Champion-level Pokémon, something most trainers in the world dream of!
If things continue this way, Crimson "933" will have a real chance to reach that legendary level that no one has ever reached... Master level!
"..."
Hearing Azure's words, Crimson also looked excitedly at the Charizard surrounded by Pokémon and nodded slightly.
Charizard's breakthrough to the Champion rank means that it now has the strength to compete with top trainers.
However, we should wait until things stabilize. Charizard has just broken through and hasn't adapted to the surge in power yet. It needs time and training to stabilize.
After all, the difference between the King class and the Champion class is not just a change in title. Even at the peak of the King class, one is very close to becoming a Champion.
But the gap between them and the true champions remains as wide as a chasm!
"...!!!"
After calming her mind and clearing her thoughts, Crimson walked over to Charizard's side, just as she was about to say something.
"Roar~!"
The Charizard roared, its dragon eyes fixed on the sky, on the black figure that had suddenly appeared.
"...?!!"
Seeing this, Crimson was somewhat puzzled and was about to look up at the sky when...
Whoosh—!
The black figure in the air was incredibly fast, even exceeding Mach, almost instantaneously.
It had already pierced the sky, bringing with it gusts of wind and air currents, and fell from the sky in front of Chi Hong and the others.
The figure that appeared was not the ferocious creature everyone had imagined; instead, it was a large, orange-colored creature with a憨憨 (simple and honest) expression.
"This is... a Dragonite?"
Azure had also reacted. Looking at the suddenly arriving, large creature, she frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled.
Why would a pseudo-legendary Dragonite come here?
Moreover, judging from its attire, it seems to be working as a deliveryman?
"Woo..."
Dragonite, having landed on the ground, glanced at Red, then took out a letter from a small pouch at its waist and handed it to Red.
"..."
Upon seeing this somewhat familiar scene, Chi Hong raised an eyebrow, took the letter, opened it, and glanced at it casually. He immediately understood what was going on.
This invitation came from an unknown individual who claimed to be the "world's strongest trainer," inviting him to attend some trainer's banquet.
"The strongest Pokémon Trainer? What a boastful statement!"
Azure took the letter from Dragonite and raised an eyebrow as she looked at its contents.
Her man's Charizard, the powerful dragon in his hand, had just broken through to the Champion rank, placing him among the world's top combatants.
Then, out of nowhere, a guy who would become the "strongest Pokémon Trainer" sent me an invitation.
The strongest Pokémon trainer—not to mention Red, even the world's most famous top trainers, champions and elites, wouldn't dare call themselves the "strongest Pokémon trainer."
What makes this person so special? Does he really think that with just one Dragonite, he can become the "strongest Pokémon trainer"?
"And the location of this banquet is actually a new island... I remember that island was only discovered in recent years, and it's an uninhabited island that hasn't been developed yet, right?"
"Aka, what do you think?"
After saying that, Azure waved the envelope in her hand, looked at Crimson who was deep in thought, and asked.
