The opening ceremony of the Sinnoh tournament was quite grand.

A huge hall with seats full of people around it, divided into five zones, each of which is filled with people from one area.

Because this was the first time that the five regions had jointly held the tournament, it attracted too many spectators, and in addition to the large number of spectators in Sinnoh itself, there were people from all regions who came by plane to watch.

And those who didn't grab tickets could only sit at home and watch the live broadcast.

In the middle of the entire field is a large open space, according to the size of this open space, there should be more than a dozen different battle arenas on it at the same time, and each field is automatically raised and lowered, and the type of field is randomly selected by the competition party.

Because of the large number of participants this time, there were trainers from five regions who collected eight badges.

Therefore, the rules of the game are relatively simple, it is directly a knockout round, the winner advances, and the loser is eliminated.

Originally, the format customized by those in the game part of the league headquarters was before 128, and each game used an elf, and one game was decided.

But in the end, I don't know which high-level of the alliance directly vetoed it, on the grounds that it was not stable enough.

Therefore, the final announced result is a match before the round of 128, each person uses two elves, and the battle is one-on-one, with the winner advancing and the losing side eliminating.

Then starting from the top 128, with the three elves as the upper limit, there will be a one-on-one battle, and the winner will advance.

Starting from the top 32, with four elves as the upper limit, there will be one-on-one battles.

After entering the round of 16, they will play a one-on-one battle with six elves of the league standard.

Finally, unlike other tournaments, when the semi-finals are played, the all-hands battle will be held.

When Aoki knew the latest rules of the game, he had to admit that the rules were indeed much better now, although it may take a little longer, but at least no one would complain that they accidentally lost the game, in fact, the strength is stronger and so on...

If both elves lose, there's no reason to look for them.

And in the final all-hands battle, it can also be seen that in fact, what the alliance really wants to look for is trainers who can conduct actual combat, not those who can only fight between trainers.

Some people are very good at fighting, but when they are fighting to the death, they are very humiliating, just because they can't fight like this.

The shrinkage of the Rockets has given the league an opportunity, and the goal of this kind of game is to find some good seedlings to cultivate and become one of the main forces to compete with the Rockets in the future.

Fighting Team Rocket, of course, requires the ability to fight to the death.

In addition, of course, there are rewards for competitions, otherwise how to attract others.

Starting from the top 64, there will be different prizes according to the rankings, as for the specific reward details, the alliance did not announce it, but said that it would not be announced until the top 64 came out.

Increases the suspense.

But in fact, everyone who understands knows that this Sinnoh tournament should be related to the future allocation of resources within the entire alliance.

And the rewards of these so-called contestants are simply negligible compared to those resource allocations.

I believe that no one in this world can calculate how many resources the alliance has, even if it is sitting on the top of the Silver Mountain, the general president of the Elf Alliance can't tell.

In short, if the league says that it will not treat the contestants badly, then it should really not be disadvantaged.

Aoki, as a representative of the Hoenn region, stood stupidly on the podium in the middle of the arena during the opening ceremony.

In addition to them, the people of the other five regions are just like them.

From these people, Aoki was vaguely able to find a few more familiar people.

For example, Kazuki one of the Four Heavenly Kings in the Johto region, Kona in the Kanto region, Wanlong in the United region, Karuna in the Kalos region, and Sinnoh in the Sinnoh region are the leaders of Aoki's acquaintance Shirona.

In fact, Aoki was quite surprised that Kona from the Kanto region came to participate in this tournament as the team leader.

Is Wataru a little bigger than Kona?

Aoki doesn't remember a little.

But now that Kona is here to participate in the competition, the dragon elf specialists are about to start to tremble.

From this group of people standing on the stage, it can be seen how fierce the competition is in this competition, and Aoki is really worried about Daigo whether he can mix in the top three.

But as the leader of the Hoenn team, Daigo, who has an extraordinary temperament, doesn't think so.

In his thoughts, even if he can't get the top three, they still have Aoki and have double insurance, so it should be relatively stable to get the top three this time.

As for the result... Who knows.

The host chatted about a lot of things, and everyone on and off the stage began to fall asleep before officially announcing the official start of this Sinnoh competition.

Aoki they are so bright, there is no benefit for them to participate in this competition, and there are even disadvantages everywhere, and those who meet them in the future will use one hundred and twenty points of effort to try to defeat them, if there is no extraordinary strength, the battle behind will be troublesome.

In the end, the number of participants was counted, and there were nearly 4,000 people, which means that more than 800 people from each region participated in the competition.

Of course, it can't be counted in this way, the two regions that are still counted together are definitely the most populous, accounting for almost one-third, while the Carlos region, which has just joined the alliance, has the smallest number of people, less than one-tenth.

As a local, the Sinnoh region has the second largest number of people.

The Hoenn region is the third most populous.

However, since there are more than 4,000 people participating in the competition, even if it is a knockout round, Aoki will need to fight at least five times before he can officially enter the round of 128.

Five matches are quite fast, but it is obvious that the entire arena can only be played a dozen at the same time, and the first round from more than 4,000 to more than 2,000 people will need to be played nearly 2,000 battles, so it will take a long time to wait.

Aoki felt that he was a little anxious before, so it seemed that after the first round of the competition, he should have many days to rest.

Many of the elves' states can also be repaired again.

There was a lot of talk at the opening ceremony, and the competition started quite timely.

As an internal referral contestant in each region, of course, the first few of the first round started the competition.

The opponents of the tournament are randomly selected by the computer of the contest.

It is said that absolute fairness and justice have been achieved.

Others may believe it, but Aoki definitely doesn't believe it.

Joke?

If nothing else, if you hold a tournament in the Sinnoh region, the Sinnoh Alliance won't do a little trickery?

Aoki didn't believe it.

You can tell who the players are in the first race.

In the first game, Shirona of Shinwa Town in the Sinnoh region played against Xiaofang in Hualan City in the Kanto region.
