Gourmet master of the Pokemon world

Chapter 260: A Gift for a Friend

"Sana ~ Sana ~" Are we really just waiting to see Kirlia again?

Gardevoir asked Ms. Wisteria with a hopeful face.

Ms. Wisteria nodded, "According to my prediction, that's how it is.

Kirlia is in a place you can't reach no matter what. If it wants to return, it can only rely on its own efforts, and no one can help it."

Ange asked in confusion, "A place that no one can reach? What kind of place is that?"

Ms. Wisteria shook her head gently, indicating that she didn't know either.

"I see…" Ange lowered his head and pondered for a long time, then raised his head and said, "Ms. Wisteria, thank you!"

No matter what, it's good as long as Kirlia is still alive. As long as it's alive, there's hope.

He had patience and time. No matter when Kirlia returned, he was willing to wait, and he could afford to wait.

Thinking like this, he took Gardevoir and Gallade's hands and said solemnly, "We will wait for Kirlia to come back together!"

Gardevoir could feel the emotions in people's hearts. It felt Ange's strong emotions, so it squeezed Ange's hand and nodded vigorously.

Gallade put his other hand on Ange's hand as well, nodding just as vigorously.

Because of overexertion, Ms. Wisteria looked very tired, so Ange didn't bother her anymore. Instead, a dojo apprentice led them to stay temporarily at the Couriway Dojo.

Learning that Ange and his party hadn't had dinner yet, the dojo apprentice enthusiastically prepared a sumptuous table for Ange and the Pokémon.

After dinner, Ange took the Pokémon back to the room to rest.

After arriving in the room, Doublade skillfully hung itself on the wall, while Bronzong, feeling bored, began to meditate.

It wanted to become stronger; it couldn't always be getting the short end of the stick in Ange's hands!

Latias and Latios were energetic and didn't want to rest too early, so after humming softly, they flew out of the window one after the other.

Seeing this, Ange quickly said, "Don't fly too far!"

"Woo ~" We know!

"Woo ~" We know!

The siblings' responses to Ange came from the night sky.

Ange shook his head helplessly and put the Komala in his arms on the bed.

Komala adjusted its posture and continued to hug the tree trunk, sleeping soundly.

"You're the comfortable one, without any worries."

Ange touched its head and turned to sit by the window, then looked up at the night sky and sighed deeply.

Although Ms. Wisteria said that Kirlia would definitely come back, she also said that Kirlia would definitely have to endure some hardships.

Thinking that he couldn't help Kirlia at all and could only wait, he felt a sense of helplessness in his heart.

The weather tonight seemed particularly good. Even though the Couriway Dojo was located in the city center, Ange could still clearly see the twinkling stars in the sky.

So he just stared at the night sky in a daze.

At this moment, Gardevoir and Gallade walked over and sat opposite Ange.

They were just as worried as Ange.

Just then, a streak of light flashed across the sky.

It's a shooting star! Ange quickly put his hands together and made a wish on the shooting star.

"Gall…" Ange, what are you doing?

Gallade asked.

Ange opened his eyes after finishing his wish and then replied to Gallade, "I'm making a wish on a shooting star. Legend has it that if you make a wish on a shooting star, your wish will come true."

Gardevoir and Gallade's eyes lit up when they heard this, and they both looked up at the night sky at the same time.

"Gall…" Really?

Gallade asked.

Ange smiled wryly, "It's just a legend."

But even if it was just a legend at this time, Gardevoir and Gallade were willing to believe it.

Unfortunately, there wasn't a single shooting star at this moment.

The couple looked at each other, their eyes filled with disappointment.

Seeing this, Ange said, "Let's wait a little longer. Maybe there will be another shooting star later!"

"Sana…"

"Gall…"

Gardevoir and Gallade nodded when they heard this.

Just like that, Ange and the couple looked at the night sky together, waiting quietly.

I don't know how long passed, but a very bright streak of light suddenly appeared in the sky, a long tail streaking across the sky.

Ange quickly said, "A shooting star is here, quickly make a wish!"

As he spoke, he put his hands together again and wished for Kirlia's safety and well-being.

Seeing this, Gardevoir and Gallade imitated Ange's actions, silently chanting in their hearts at the same time: We hope Kirlia will return safely!

The shooting star flashed and disappeared, and after Ange and the couple finished making their wishes, they felt a sense of loss in their hearts.

They knew this was just a psychological comfort.

If wishes could really come true, that would be great!

After continuing to sit there blankly for a while, Latias and Latios had had enough fun outside and flew into the house one after the other.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ange said to everyone, "Let's go to sleep."

Just like that, Ange and the Pokémon entered dreamland together.

Perhaps it was because he had been thinking too much, but Ange didn't sleep well at night and kept dreaming about Kirlia, so he woke up early the next morning.

However, after waking up, he couldn't remember what he had dreamed about, only remembering that it was all related to Kirlia.

Seeing that the Pokémon were still sleeping, Ange quietly washed up and planned to go out for exercise.

Now that the system missions no longer rewarded physique points, Ange could only continue to become stronger by persevering in his training.

Before going out, Ange asked a dojo apprentice who was already awake where was a good place for morning exercise, so the dojo master introduced Ange to the park next to the dojo.

After arriving at the park, Ange began to run around the park lap after lap.

He was carrying weighted equipment on his body, because with his current physical fitness, simply running was no longer enough to make him stronger.

There were many people in the park exercising early in the morning, so Ange wasn't alone.

After about an hour, Ange sat down on a park bench to rest, his face already covered in sweat.

Ange wiped away the sweat while watching the old men and women exercising not far away, planning to rest for a while before returning to the dojo.

Just then, two figures ran past him.

Ange shouted in surprise, "Mr. Aaron?"

The two figures stopped running, turned around, and looked at Ange in surprise. Who else could it be but Aaron and his Lucario?

"Ange, what are you doing here?" Aaron happily walked to Ange's side and asked.

Ange replied, "I'm staying at the Couriway Dojo next door, so I came here for morning exercise."

Aaron chuckled, "What a coincidence, I'm staying at the Pokémon Center next door, also here for morning exercise!"

It turned out that the Pokémon Center and the Couriway Dojo were located on the left and right sides of the park, not far apart.

Aaron asked, "Are you about to leave?"

Ange nodded, "Yes, just finished exercising."

Ya Xuan said, "In that case, let's talk again later. How about meeting at this park?"

Anjay readily agreed, "Okay, see you later then."

And just like that, the two agreed on a time and place to meet and then parted ways.

When Anjay returned to the Baekkok Gym, he discovered that the Pokémon were no longer in their rooms.

He first took a shower and then learned from a gym apprentice that his Pokémon were all in the gym's cafeteria eating breakfast, so he went to find them.

When he arrived at the cafeteria, he saw Gardevoir and the others having breakfast with Madame Gorgeana.

Also present were Madame Gorgeana's Pokémon: a male and female Meowstic, Slowking, Sigilyph, Espeon, and Natu.

Seeing Anjay, Madame Gorgeana smiled and said, "You're back? Come sit down and eat with us."

Anjay nodded and quickly walked to the table. Gardevoir saw him and brought him a chair, while Gallade helped fetch utensils and breakfast.

Anjay was indeed hungry, so he eagerly began to eat.

Madame Gorgeana asked, "What are your plans now? Are you going back to Azoth, or...?"

Anjay replied, "I have a meeting with a friend. After that, I'll probably go check out Terminus Cave!"

Terminus Cave is Zygarde's home and is located near Baekkok City. Anjay and Z2 separated near Terminus Cave when returning from the Desert City.

Judging by the frequent appearances of the Tentacool, there's a high probability that something has happened to Z2. Since he's come to Baekkok City, he wants to take the opportunity to check Terminus Cave to see if he can find any clues.

"I see..." Madame Gorgeana nodded. "If you need my help with anything, don't hesitate to ask. Don't be shy."

Anjay said gratefully, "Thank you, Madame Gorgeana."

Anjay quickly finished his breakfast, and a Jynx came over to clear the table.

At this time, Anjay took out something and handed it to Madame Gorgeana.

It was a bent silver spoon.

Don't underestimate this spoon; it's a collection of Mew.

It originally belonged to a powerful Alakazam. After Alakazam passed away, Mew took it away as a toy and kept it in its nest, using it as a cushion to sleep on.

Because it had been soaked in Mew's power for a long time, this spoon became a powerful tool that could not only amplify the user's psychic abilities but also aid in meditation.

One time when Mew came to Anjay's place to eat, it brought this thing along and gave it to Anjay as compensation for eating and drinking for free at Anjay's place for a long time.

There was a pair of these spoons. One of them was given to Golurk by Anjay, and the other is the one he has now.

Madame Gorgeana had helped him a lot, so Anjay wanted to give her this spoon.

"Madame Gorgeana, this is for you!" Anjay said.

The moment she saw the spoon, Madame Gorgeana knew its special and precious nature.

Madame Gorgeana had seen bent spoons before; she even had one herself, but it couldn't compare to the one in front of her.

The powerful psychic energy it emitted even resonated with her own psychic abilities.

However, Madame Gorgeana didn't take the spoon. She asked Anjay with a smile, "Is this my reward?"

Anjay immediately realized that if he answered "yes," Madame Gorgeana would definitely not accept it, so he jokingly replied:

"How could it be? I'm very stingy. I wouldn't pay a reward even if you helped me. This is a gift. Is there a problem with bringing a gift when visiting a friend?"

Madame Gorgeana was amused by Anjay. "No problem, then I'll accept it!"

With that, she reached out and took the spoon from Anjay's hand.

The moment she touched the spoon, Madame Gorgeana was once again convinced of its extraordinary nature.

After carefully putting the spoon away, Madame Gorgeana chatted with Anjay for a while. Then, seeing that it was getting late, Anjay planned to go out and meet Ya Xuan.

At this time, Madame Gorgeana said, "Anjay, why don't you leave Golurk here with me for the time being!"

Anjay was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, but he quickly guessed Madame Gorgeana's intentions. She wanted to help train Golurk.

Anjay was of course overjoyed and happily said, "Okay, then I'll leave Golurk in your care!"

Madame Gorgeana smiled and nodded.

Then, Anjay looked at Golurk and instructed, "Golurk, you stay with Madame Gorgeana and train hard. Be obedient, or you'll suffer when you get back!"

"Yajii~ Yajii~" Golurk couldn't wait to train with Madame Gorgeana!

On the one hand, it really wanted to become stronger and strive to restore its former strength as soon as possible.

On the other hand, Anjay was always picking on it. It wanted to leave Anjay for a few days to let him know its importance.

Anjay: You're dreaming! Your importance is about equal to zero!

And so, Golurk stayed at the Baekkok Gym, while Anjay went to the park to meet Mr. Ya Xuan.

When Anjay arrived at the park, he saw that Ya Xuan and Lucario had already arrived. He was chatting with a group of old men, and it was unclear what he had said, but the old men all had smiles on their faces and were talking incessantly.

When he saw Anjay, Mr. Ya Xuan apologized to the old men and quickly walked towards Anjay with Lucario.

"Mr. Ya Xuan, have you been here long?" Anjay asked.

Ya Xuan shook his head. "I just arrived a little while ago. Let's find a place to sit down and talk!"

Then, the two found a gazebo to sit down.

"Anjay, have any Wave Guiders come from the Azoth royal family before?" Ya Xuan asked after sitting down.

Anjay shook his head: "As far as I know, no. My awakening was just an accident."

Ya Xuan nodded and said, "This kind of situation has happened before. I know someone who had a very strong natural Wave Guide, but unfortunately, his Wave Guide didn't awaken."

Anjay said in surprise, "What a coincidence, I know one too."

Ya Xuan was stunned. There aren't many people with strong natural Wave Guides. Could it be...

At the same time, Anjay also thought of this.

So the two said in unison, "Ash!"

Sure enough, the person they were both talking about was Ash.

"Does Mr. Ya Xuan know Ash?" Anjay asked.

Ya Xuan nodded and said, "That's right. Ash traveled with me for a while when he was traveling in the Sinnoh region."

Ya Xuan is the owner of Iron Island in the Sinnoh region.

Back then, Team Galactic caused trouble on Iron Island, using black technology to make the Steel-type Pokémon on Iron Island fall into chaos. Even Lucario was affected. He and Ash and his friends worked together to crush Team Galactic's conspiracy.

After listening to Ya Xuan's account, Anjay said, "So that's how it is."

Anjay remembered that in the game, Ya Xuan was one of the five partner trainers in the Sinnoh region and made his first appearance on Iron Island.

Ash is truly the protagonist! He met Ya Xuan just like the game protagonist.
