Chapter 519: Pokemon master of tactics: Chapter 519
Here's an improved version that keeps your format, adds a bit more dialogue, improves the grammar, and makes the interaction feel more natural:
Steven sat down next to Alex and asked casually, "So, what's your plan this time before the tournament?"
Alex looked at Steven and said, "What are you talking about?"
Steven explained, "As I recall, you always set your plans in motion before the match even starts. In the Rookie Tournament, you gave an interview to make yourself look weaker than you really were. In the Kanto Champion Tournament, you intentionally provoked a specific participant during an interview so that you could face him and avoid stronger opponents."
Steven looked at Alex suspiciously and said, "Don't tell me you don't have a plan this time?"
Alex wore a deadpan expression as he replied, "I really don't have a plan..."
Steven immediately mirrored that same expression.
The two stared at each other for a few seconds.
Finally, Steven said, "I don't believe you."
