I, the first trainer of the new world

On the other side, in the Pokémon Center, Miss Joy took five Poké Balls and the injured Pikachu, and pushed them into the recovery device. While debugging the device, she said, "They are seriously injured, and it may take some time for them to recover."

"I understand. Thank you Miss Joy." Xiaozhi thanked with a smile.

"This is what I should do." Miss Joy smiled.

Xiaozhi scratched his head.

Serena stood silently beside him, looking at Xiaozhi with worried eyes.

Even if others couldn't see it, she could see a look of confusion in Xiaozhi's eyes that was different from usual.

He is doubting himself.

"Xiaozhi..." Serena subconsciously opened her mouth to say something, but the moment she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say.

Xiaozhi heard Serena calling him and turned to look at her, "What's wrong Serena?"

Serena pursed her lips and remained silent. After a while, she just shook her head.

She didn't know what to say.

Ash pretended to be himself as before, and went to the restaurant while waiting for the Pokémon to recover, eating with his usual big smile.

Serena followed silently.

Xiaozhi sat silently at the dining table, looking at the curry rice in front of him, holding a spoon in his hand, but without any intention of eating. He just looked at it silently.

Serena sat across from Xiaozhi, her expression full of worry.

After dinner, Miss Joy said that she needed some time to recover. Xiaozhi agreed and left the Pokémon Center. Serena still followed him silently.

Xiaozhi and Serena were sitting on a bench next to the lake in the center of the town. Perhaps because the news of the appearance of legendary Pokémon in the Pokémon Center was too attractive, there were only two people by the lake where people would occasionally pass by.

They sat quietly on the bench, one looking at the lake and the other looking at each other.

Serena felt like she should say something, but the words just wouldn't come out no matter what she did, as if something was blocking her from explaining herself.

Just when Serena was struggling, Xiaozhi suddenly looked at her with an apologetic smile on his face: "Sorry Serena, I may not be able to stand on the stage of Kalos Queen with you."

Serena's pupils shrank: "W-why?"

Xiaozhi grabbed a handful of hair in annoyance, "Because I think what Qianlin said is right, I seem to have nothing. If Pikachu and Greninja were trained by Qianlin, they would definitely win the Kalos League championship, but I seem to..."

He felt as if he couldn't do it.

"No!" Serena said almost subconsciously.

She stood up and looked at Xiaozhi very seriously: "You are the trainer of Pikachu and the others, not Qianlin. You are also the one who wants to win the Kalos League Championship! I want to stand on the Kalos Queen's stage with you, not Qianlin!"

Xiaozhi was stunned.

The moment these words were spoken, Serena was stunned for a moment, and then her whole face turned red.

She waved her hands in panic: "What I mean is that you can definitely stand at the top of the Kalos League and become a Pokémon Master. The Kalos League is just a starting point. I also want to stand with you like that... um~"

Serena's face turned even redder.

Perhaps Qianlin's previous metaphor had some effect, Xiaozhi's face also blushed for the first time, and a faint red appeared on his face, making him scratch his head a little embarrassed: "Is it because... Serena wants to become... a 'Pokémon'?"

Serena's breath hitched.

At this moment, her brain froze for a moment.

"S-Sorry, I don't know what to say!" Xiaozhi stood up, a hint of panic in his tone.

He scratched his head, his tone hesitant: "I still don't understand it now... but I know that capturing a Pokémon is a very serious matter, which means that the trainer and the Pokémon will be together forever. All I can think of is that Serena wants to be with me... right?"

Serena's face turned red, very red, as red as a ripe apple.

Xiaozhi looked at Serena with a serious expression: "I like Pokémon, and I also like Serena. If Serena is willing, I also want to be with Serena forever and accompany you on the stage of Kalos Queen."

These words were no different from a confession, but looking at Xiaozhi's serious expression, Serena tasted something different.

With her cheeks flushed, she spoke softly, "Together forever... like a trainer and Pokémon?"

"Yes!" Xiaozhi nodded firmly.

"Companions?" Serena asked again.

"Companions!" Xiaozhi nodded again.

Serena let out a long sigh, the blush on her face gradually fading.

She smiled bitterly with some regret and helplessness: "This is Xiaozhi."

Xiaozhi tilted his head: "Did I say something wrong?"

"You should wait until you understand what 'together forever' means before you tell me that!" Serena puffed up her cheeks and yelled at Xiaozhi in annoyance, "Baga Xiaozhi!"

"Huh?" Xiaozhi was dumbfounded.

Serena cursed! Serena cursed Hey... No! Why did you curse me!!!

"Why are you scolding me?" Xiaozhi looked at her in confusion.

Isn't that what it means?

Serena sat on the bench angrily, turning her head away and not looking at Xiaozhi.

Xiaozhi stared blankly at Serena's angry expression, and for a moment he didn't know how to start talking, so he could only scratch his head like a fool.

“I can’t stand it anymore!!!”

A roar came from behind, and Musashi, with long burgundy hair and wearing a white Team Rocket uniform, walked out from behind the bushes with a dark face.

Kojiro held Musashi's waist and was dragged on the ground with a horrified look on his face: "Musashi calm down! You little brat is always like this! Calm down!"

Meowth was trembling as he hugged the tree next to him: "Musashi's love heart has exploded, meowth!"

How scary!

"Ss ...

Sure enough, Weng agreed.

"Team Rocket!" Xiaozhi's eyes widened immediately, and he subconsciously reached for his waist, but he didn't feel any Poké Balls. "Oh no, my Pokémon are all in the Poké Center!"

Serena also stood up subconsciously, threw a Poké Ball, and the elegant Sylveon appeared in front of her.

She looked at Musashi, who had a murderous look on his face, and looked a little nervous: "Team Rocket, what do you want to do now?"

"Ha~" Musashi sneered, "Little girl, I can't stand watching you from behind. If you like him, why don't you just say it out loud! You might as well expect the little brat to figure it out on his own. You might as well expect us to capture Pikachu!"

Musashi almost shouted these words.

Serena and Xiaozhi were stunned for a moment.

Musashi pointed at Xiaozhi and said arrogantly: "Little brat! We in Team Rocket have followed you for so long, from Kanto to Johto to Hoenn to Sinnoh to Unova to Kalos. I saw it from the very beginning when you were a little girl in the first generation! You are destined to live a lonely life!"

Xiaozhi's face turned dark.

No, what's wrong with you Team Rocket? You're here to scold me when my Pokémon isn't around, right?

"Besides, isn't it too much to say that I'll die alone?" Xiaozhi gritted his teeth and said, "I have Pikachu and the others! And so many companions from different regions! Don't you know them all? How can I die alone?"

Serena: "..."

Kojiro: “…”

Meow meow:"……"

"Did you see that, little girl? This is the little brat..." Musashi covered his face, "The little brat who is destined to live out his life in loneliness!"
