I'm gonna be a Pokémon master

"Back, click, click! . . . "

Bean-sized raindrops fell from the dark and lightless night, and were carried by the strong wind to mercilessly hit everything that appeared in their field of vision.Accompanied by the howling of a gust of wind and ghosts, it shakes people's hearts.

On the rugged forest road, the potholed ground has formed a mirror that is constantly broken, then restored, and then broken again.The next moment, several hurried footsteps stomped heavily on the mirror surface, smashing the mirror into countless flying fragments, but it was only a moment before the mirror was broken and reassembled...

——Two silhouettes running hard in the rainy night are particularly conspicuous under the pale light of a flash of lightning that suddenly appeared. They are Xiaozhi and Sundae who are looking for shelter from the rain.

"According to the location indicated on the map, as long as you climb over the hillside not far ahead, you can see the Pokémon Center not far below, let's go there quickly!"

Running in front to block most of the oncoming raindrops and strong wind, so that Sundae, who is a girl, can run more easily. Dai yelled a reminder.

The ferocious raindrops hit his face desperately, making Xiaozhi's vision even more blurred in the dark night, and the howling wind was also desperately blocking their progress, making them It is very difficult to take a step.

The two finally climbed up the hillside despite the difficulties and obstacles, but at this moment, they only heard Sundae's sudden scream, Xiaozhi's heart was shocked suddenly, and he turned around quickly, only to see his feet slipping accidentally and his body leaning back , the sundae about to roll down the hill.

In the nick of time, Xiaozhi rushed forward and tightly grasped the arm that she stretched forward——

"Hurry up!"

After the sudden panic, Xiaozhi reacted and hurriedly grabbed her hand with both hands, gritted his teeth and pulled her back to him.

"It's okay, it will be here soon, hold on!"

Couldn't help touching the head of the girl in front of him who hadn't recovered from the thrill just now, and Xiaozhi showed a forced smile after being in no danger. Although he didn't feel anything because he was wearing a plastic raincoat, Xiaozhi still Give full play to what a boy should do at this moment.

"...Well, thank you."

After being relieved, Sundae, who finally calmed down his beating heart, nodded gratefully towards him, and involuntarily grasped the hand that was pulling back to him. Xiaozhi just smiled knowingly at this, and pulled Holding her wrist, they ran to the center of the Pokémon hidden in the depths of the forest not far away——

But you never know which will come first, tomorrow or the accident.

The two who had just run out not far away were quickly stopped by the scene in front of them...

In the forest where the storm is constantly raging, a thin figure is lying on a stone in the middle of the road at this moment. The faint flame at the end of the tail is like the leaflet on his head to keep out the rain, crumbling in the raging storm , as if it would collapse and extinguish at any time.

Facing this ferocious storm that could tear him apart, he was weak and could only curl up his body as much as possible, trembling under the roar of the evil spirit.

Suddenly, he felt that the raindrops and hurricanes beating on his body were reduced a lot, and an inexplicable sense of peace arose spontaneously.He raised his head in confusion, and looked at the two tall figures in front of him who did not know when, his tired eyes met the clear and energetic gaze of this young man in a second. Together.

"Are you a little charmander? It's raining so much outside, why are you lying here?"

It's hard to imagine any Pokémon left alone outside in this stormy weather.Bending down——Looking at the little Charmander in front of him, Xiaozhi asked with concern.But at this time, he just opened his mouth hard, but he was unable to make any sound anymore, and his head drooped weakly. The flickering flame at the end of the tail seemed to indicate that his life was about to disappear.

"Don't ask so much, hurry up and protect the flame on his tail, don't let it go out, or his life will be in danger!"

At the critical moment, Sundae made a judgment and quickly asked Xiaozhi to guard the tiny ray of flame.After hearing Sundae's words, Xiaozhi didn't hesitate at all, and directly untied the raincoat he was wearing, and put it on Little Charmander in the next second, and hugged the weak him in his arms.

"Xiaozhi, you..."

Seeing his behavior like this, Sundae was surprised and speechless for a moment.

"Regardless of whether he has a trainer, or whether he is waiting for his trainer, he should be taken to the Pokémon Center for treatment now!"

He only listened to Xiaozhi's serious tone.Then Xiaozhi took off his backpack, handed it to Sundae who was in a daze, and solemnly entrusted her:

"Next, Pikachu and the others will ask you, Sundae, and make sure to get to the Pokémon Center safely!"

"?!——What are you talking about? How can you do it alone? Don't be brave at a time like this!"

Seeing the decisive look on his face, Sundae, who wanted to understand what he was going to do, yelled at him regardless of the critical situation.But Xiaozhi shook his head seriously, and explained under her worried gaze:

"It's not trying to be brave, it's just that I can't move fast with Charmander, and Pikachu and the others haven't recovered their physical strength, so I can only ask Sundae to rush to the Pokémon Center first, don't worry about me, my luck has always been very good , will definitely bring the little Charmander back safely."

As he spoke, he smiled encouragingly at her, and after hearing what he said, Sundae bowed his head and fell silent.After a while, she took the backpack that Xiaozhi handed over with a blank face. It was bulging inside, and Pikachu and other Pokémon balls were lying quietly in it.Staring at Xiaozhi seriously, Sundae could only say "come back safely" and rushed into the dark rain alone with his backpack tightly, and disappeared in the blink of an eye...

Watching Sundae's figure being swallowed by the night and disappearing, Xiaozhi exhaled foul breath, looked down at the little charmander in his arms, and let the raindrops crazily hit him, wrapping his frail body tightly with the raincoat, the ball was in the rainy night. The flame that was still moving in his heart was shining like his endless life.

"Next is our battle (journey)!"

Wearing the hat on top of his head tightly, with a look of "firmness" in his eyes, facing the storm, Xiaozhi embarked on their journey without hesitation.
