Chapter 1050: Open Battle, Su Hao VS Poplar

Arena backstage.

As the time for her to go on stage was approaching, Poplar still used the parasol in her hand as a crutch and stuck it on the ground, giving instructions to the white curly-haired boy who was sitting upright in front of her.

"Watch carefully and learn well. As the future headmaster of the Dance Gym, you must know what 'pink' is."

"Remember, only by searching high and low can you find the answer!"

"I see......"

Peter, who was forced to change into a pink suit and was brainwashed with pink ideas by Poplar for a month, has become numb.

As a trainer favored by Ross and funded by him, he collects wishing stars for President Ross while traveling and challenging gyms, hoping to become a strong trainer who can help President Ross's sanity.

But when challenging the fifth gym, the Dance Gym, Poplar suddenly came up with the idea and said that Peter had "pink" potential. She forcibly detained him and wanted to make Peter an apprentice in the gym and inherit Poplar's position as gym leader in the future.

Peter definitely wouldn't want to do that, as he still has to work hard to repay President Ross.

Peter wanted to run, but the old woman Poplar was too powerful. Peter never succeeded in escaping once. He finally waited for President Ross to come, but the other party actually condoned Poplar's behavior.

Peter had fought and struggled, but now he was numb. Even his clothes were forced by Poplar to change into pink and accept her "pink" education.

Listening to Poplar's nagging in his ear, Peter, with dead eyes, looked at the TV hanging in the lounge, which was broadcasting the scenes in the arena in real time.

Although I am a little unwilling, I have to admit that Poplar, this old lady with a weird personality, is really strong.

If she had never actively matched up for battles, her current ranking would definitely not be only 98th, and she might even have a chance to compete for the position of the Eight Grand Masters.

During this month, Peter saw many trainers who challenged Poplar and lost miserably, and those were only gym challenges that limited Poplar's strength.

Now there are no restrictions on gym leaders, and trainers can fight as they please in ranked matches. Peter really feels sorry for the trainer named Su Hao who will definitely be destroyed and defeated by this old woman today.

Peter observed a minute's silence, then took great pleasure in the misfortune.

......

In the bustling dance arena, the dazzling lights made the place as bright as day. The rather brainwashing background music was played through the large speakers surrounding the entire venue. I'm afraid it could even be heard in the Lost Light Forest. I don't know how the other residents of the Dance Town fell asleep.

It is said that this song was specially designed by Rose for gym owners and Dynamax by a professional music producer.

But the audience didn't care about the song at this time, and all turned their eyes to the center of the arena.

Today's two protagonists have already appeared there.

"My opponent today is you... Hmm, I'm really not interested."

Poplar was holding her parasol, which she never left behind, and looked rather uninterested.

She didn't see any trace of the "pink" she was looking for on Su Hao. Just by taking a glance at him, Poplar knew that he didn't fit her philosophy.

Fortunately, she has found Peter, her successor, and she accepted today's battle in order to personally demonstrate to Peter what "pink" is.

Su Hao, who was suddenly disliked, had several question marks on his head and looked confused.

At this time, the commentator also began to liven up the atmosphere.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the dance arena!"

"Tonight's match is a little special. It is an open match between different ranks. The two sides are the owner of this dance arena, Ms. Poplar, and Mr. Su Hao, a trainer who came all the way from Deep Gray City in the Kanto region!"

"Ms. Poplar's strength is well known, but Mr. Su Hao's experience is even more legendary. He achieved a ranking of more than 199 in just one day, jumping to th in the Super Ball Class. It can be predicted that his strength is extremely strong."

"One is a senior with unfathomable strength, and the other is a rising star... Between the two, who will win!?"

As soon as the commentator finished speaking, warm cheers rang out in the dance arena.

Perhaps it was because this was Poplar's home ground, and compared to Su Hao, a relatively unknown person, almost everyone chose to support Poplar.

Looking down, Dan Di, who did not reveal his identity but disguised himself to blend into the audience, raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

Let me witness your strength, Su Hao.

Because it was an open tournament, the referee of the competition was changed from an aerial Rotom to a real person.

The referee, dressed in the uniform of a Marrokomon member, held two flags, one red and one green, and uttered a powerful voice. The sound was accurately transmitted through the speakers to the entire dance arena, even covering the corners.

"This battle is a three-on-three singles battle. There is no limit on rotation. You can only choose to use one of the Mega Evolution, Z Move, Gigantamax, and Grand Crystallization."

"Please both parties release the Pokémon at the same time!"

As the referee finished speaking, Su Hao and Poplar, who had already arrived at the edge of the battlefield, threw their Poké Balls at the same time.

"Come on stage, Big Mouth."

"Go ahead, Zeraora."

On Poplar's side, there is a Pokémon that is as cute as a doll, but has a big mouth like a ponytail on its back. It is a Pokémon with steel and fairy attributes, called Big Mouth.

On Su Hao's side, as soon as Zeraora appeared on the stage, its handsome appearance immediately captured the hearts of many audiences who were obsessed with looks and wealth, and they all turned to support Zeraora.

"Yeah, it's just as I expected."

Poplar's face was filled with smiles. Although this was the first time she saw the Pokémon named Zeraora, she could roughly guess based on its characteristics that this Pokémon should be an electric-type, and its strength was about the same as she expected.

It's probably close to the king level, and Big Mouth is enough to handle it.

Su Hao and Poplar looked at each other, and without any nonsense, the battle began.

"Sword Dance!"

Poplar leisurely chose to let Big Mouth take advantage of the distance between it and Zeraora to strengthen it.

Before Zeraora arrives, Big Mouth has enough time to strengthen himself.

An illusory sword suddenly appeared on Big Mouth Baby's body, and he was about to start a sword dance.

At this moment, Su Hao's faint voice suddenly sounded.

"Fire Fist."

The moment Su Hao finished speaking.

boom!

There was a deafening thunderstorm, and the next moment, a straight lightning track crossed the huge battlefield of the Dance Arena and instantly rushed in front of the big-mouthed boy who was about to dance with a sword.

Big Mouth's pupils shrank, and before he could react, the flaming fist, which was a huge threat to him, hit him in the face!
