Greatest Pokémon Trainer

```

Transform the Mega Stone into the energy core of Destructive Bug?

"You really are a little genius," Fang Yuan said, looking at Rotom scratching its head.

Phone Rotom: (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ Heh heh.

Rotom's suggestion indeed struck a chord in Fang Yuan's heart.

In the original work, the Destructive Bug, Genesect, being a technologically modified Pokémon, could be equipped with cassettes containing different attribute information, altering the attribute of its signature move Flash Cannon to match that of the data stored in the cassette.

Moreover, Genesect would also change forms while carrying different cassettes... This was Genesect's species trait.

Now, the reason Fang Yuan and the others could not revive Destructive Bug was due to immature Fossil Revival Techniques; even if one day the techniques were mature enough, Fang Yuan and his team would not be able to replicate the Destructive Bug from the original work.

The technologies of Earth and the Pokémon World differ greatly in their paths, and no matter how hard Fang Yuan and Rotom worked, they would not be able to replicate Plasma Team's exact revival and transformation of Destructive Bug. Therefore, there's no need to adhere to using cassettes as one of the energy cores as in the original work.

Mega Stones are definitely cooler.

Fang Yuan had previously considered reviving and transforming Destructive Bug with mysterious science and technology, and now, with Rotom's suggestion to incorporate Mega Stones, the idea became even more enriched.

Alter the Mega Stone after the Soul Heart model to become the energy core of Destructive Bug... combined with the original work's feature of Destructive Bug changing forms...

If they use the Beedrill Mega-Stone, would it create a MEGA Beedrill-like, Steel and Bug-type Legendary Pokémon Destructive Bug?

If it weren't for attending the World Championship soon, Fang Yuan would surely not be so concerned with reviving and transforming Destructive Bug, but after learning of Zi Wan's prophecy, Fang Yuan suddenly became very eager to explore these possibilities.

Having another Pokémon with great potential at his side would mean an extra sliver of hope in the face of calamity. If an opportunity presented itself, Fang Yuan even hoped to bring out Mewtwo, although he knew that this was purely wishful thinking.

"Good suggestion. You'll be in charge of overseeing this project," Fang Yuan encouraged.

Rotom: ((*・∀・）ゞ

"No rush, just mean to put it down as a note..."

Fang Yuan glanced at Rotom, put the thought aside for now, as it was useless to think too much about it at present; they couldn't even complete the basic steps of reviving Destructive Bug, so it was more reliable to figure out how to train Eevee and the others to Guardian God Level.

.........

May 25th.

Fang Yuan and his group finally returned to their homeland.

Just after leaving Magic City Pearl Airport, Fang Yuan turned to Kong Hai and Fu Hei and said:

"Gentlemen, thank you for your help during this time. Well... till we meet again?"

Now that he had returned to his homeland, and with the Nightmare God by his side, there was no need for bodyguards anymore. The main reason was Fang Yuan felt he was more free to move on his own.

"Sure," Kong Hai waved his hand as he was also tired of tagging along with Fang Yuan and had long wanted to roam around.

Their task was indeed just to ensure Fang Yuan's safe return to the country.

On the other hand, Fu Hei remained silent. Having been stimulated too much by Fang Yuan recently, he didn't really want to see Fang Yuan anymore...

"Then... goodbye," Fang Yuan said with a smile, "Let's meet again in the battle of the gods of the nations."

After saying farewell to the two, Fang Yuan left in high spirits and called out Rotom to head towards the Day-Moon Forest.

However, what Fang Yuan didn't expect was that just as he thought he could be a bit more free after returning home, Rotom suddenly exploded with a deluge of messages... The return of the World Champion and the discoverer of Mega Evolution was no trivial matter. Currently, a bunch of Trainer Association officials and national leaders wanted to visit Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan, Eevee: (⊙﹏⊙)

"Damn it," Fang Yuan said, dazed as he looked at the array of names projected by Rotom. It was finished; the next few days were going to be busy.

......

June 1st, 2020, Children's Day.

Half a month had passed since the end of the World Championship. Besides the talk of the town topics like "We are the champions" and "Mega Evolution," there were some changes that people were very concerned about.

Firstly, many renowned battle arenas in 19 first-tier cities nationwide started to shut down for major renovations.

It was clear that they were gearing up for a big project.

```

And the project proposal was not kept secret by the officials but rather was directly announced.

The Trainer Association decided to cooperate with the Glamour Contest Company to establish a batch of "Gorgeous Contest Venues," and the 19 battle arenas in these 19 cities are the locations for the first batch of Gorgeous Contest Venues.

Gorgeous Contests and the Glamour Contest Company are familiar to every Hua Nation viewer who pays attention to the world competitions.

Pokémon Gorgeous Contests and Coordinating Trainers are concepts that, through a massive advertising campaign during this period, have become widely recognized, if not universally known, especially among those with a Trainer's identity aspiring to become Trainers.

......

Pokémon Gorgeous Contests are a type of Pokémon competition, generally divided into two stages.

In the first stage, the "Beauty Performance," contestants need their Pokémon to showcase beautiful combination moves and the Pokémon's own charm. The judges will score based on combination skills, the Trainer's cultivation level of the Pokémon, and the Pokémon's growth status to determine who advances to the next stage.

This stage tests not the strength of the Pokémon but rather the nurturing approach and training direction. Of course, on this stage, the requirements for the Pokémon's Coordination Ability are very high, as are the professional requirements for the judging panel. Without sufficient expertise, it will be difficult to score correctly.

The second stage is the Beauty Battle.

In this stage, competitors must battle while ensuring skillfulness within a time limit. The battle screen will display the "Gorgeous value" points for both sides.

When a Pokémon is attacked, makes a mistake with its move, or when the opponent's Pokémon displays a particularly stunning skill or strategically uses the player's move against them, players will lose Gorgeous value points.

There are three ways to determine victory: one is to defeat the opponent, two is to compare Gorgeous values at the end of the time limit, and three is to deplete the opponent's Gorgeous value within the match time.

Because this rule exists, in cases where the power discrepancy is not extreme, with the restriction of Gorgeous value, some players and Pokémon can more easily achieve "victory against the strong by the weak."

When the Gorgeous Contest official website published the initial version of the competition format, some knowledgeable Trainers immediately understood the intent behind the Gorgeous Contests and felt immense admiration.

This kind of competition can definitely attract a group of audience members who are not keen on battles, especially when Pokémon battles dominate the main stage today.

The Beauty Performance, just like a beauty contest, allows passersby to better appreciate the Pokémon's inherent charm, leading them to fall in love with Pokémon. The existence of this stage also lowers the entry threshold for the Gorgeous Contest, even allowing New Trainers to compete on the same stage as Elite Trainers.

On a deeper level, this stage trains the Pokémon's Coordination Ability.

Training a Pokémon's coordination quality is a very important task for an Ordinary Trainer on the path to professionalism. Many Trainers neglect it due to its difficulty, and this competition could subtly change the status quo.

As for the Beauty Battle, it ensures the quality of the competitors. Even though it's a "beauty" contest, it requires Pokémon to have certain combat abilities, thereby preventing Coordinating Trainers from being just "pretty faces."

And the "Gorgeous value" is designed to be the key for weaker trainers with superior coordination ability to overcome stronger opponents, a core element of the Gorgeous Contest.

............

"Everything is on track."

"This is a brand-new beginning for the Trainer Domain!"

In Magic City, at the Day-Moon Forest Research Institute, Fang Yuan smiles as he regularly receives the latest information on the Gorgeous Contests.

At this point, nearly a week has passed since he returned from Japan.

The Fossil Reserve at Day-Moon Forest is still under construction, so Darkrai and the others are temporarily staying at the Research Institute. Over the past few days, Fang Yuan was exhausted from meeting with association leaders and other important figures, establishing many agreements.

For instance, the development model for the Gorgeous Contest.

Once Fang Yuan had finalized the initial rules for the Gorgeous Contest and explained its far-reaching implications, he immediately received strong support from the Trainer Association. Now, the first Gorgeous Contest has been scheduled for August 1st of this year.

Thanks to proper promotion, the level of interest in the Gorgeous Contest is quite high, surpassing that of the King's Match and the National Competitions. The name Fang Yuan, as the "Father of the Gorgeous Contest," has also become well-known to some in a new capacity.

Currently, with two months until the debut of the Gorgeous Contest, registration has begun in various places. Fang Yuan can hardly wait to see the abilities of Earth's first batch of Coordinating Trainers.

For those who became Trainers in 2020, especially girls, the most attractive competition is no longer newcomer tournaments like the Little Phoenix King Cup but the Gorgeous Contest!

During this time, Fang Yuan also took the opportunity to apply for all the patents related to the production of Energy Blocks, as both Gorgeous Contests and Energy Blocks are integral parts of the third wave of Trainers.

Merely relying on Self-detonating Magnetic Monsters would be insufficient to popularize Energy Blocks.

Therefore, those large machines capable of mass-producing Energy Blocks, as described in the source material, are indispensable.

Having done all this, although Energy Blocks have not yet been introduced to the market, Fang Yuan is already anticipating how fast the Trainer Domain will develop over the next few years.

However, after smiling for a while, Fang Yuan's expression turned bitter again because for him, the Gorgeous Contest getting on the right track was far from his time to relax. Coming up, he still had many things to keep him busy.
