The soul penetrates Xiaozhi and destroys Gou Hao at the beginning

Places like Kurogane City, Baidai City, and Shuimai City are the locations of gyms, while Zhuqing City, the central area in the west, is the most technologically advanced city in the entire region and the central city of the Sinnoh region.

The eastern region of Sinnoh is full of life and has a variety of facilities.

Unlike the eastern and western regions that were divided vertically by the Cheonguan Mountain, the northern region was sparsely populated, with the only major area being Xuefeng City.

Perhaps because of the snow blowing down from the top of Cheongwan Mountain, the northern region was not only cold, but also the journey to the north was extremely difficult.

The Sinnoh region is not like the warmer Hoenn region in the south, it is located in the northern part of the Pokémon world.

This makes the climate of the Sinnoh region cold, with snow all year round in the northern regions and rain in some southern regions.

Coniferous-like trees grow to the west of Tianguan Mountain, and broad-leaved trees grow to the east of Tianguan Mountain.

At night, Hanako stayed up late to sew a new dress with a sewing machine, but she still hadn't finished it until almost dawn.

"I thought he would stay for two or three days, but I didn't expect him to leave tomorrow. Maybe it's too late." Hanako said.

Early the next morning.

Hanako, Professor Oak and Xiaojian saw Xiaozhi off at the door of Xiaozhi's house.

"Well, goodbye, Professor Oak. I'll leave the Pokémon I left at the research institute in your care," said Xiaozhi.

"Well, after arriving in the Sinnoh region, you will go find Professor Yamanashi who lives in Masaga Town. He is my predecessor and an expert in the field of Pokémon evolution research." said Professor Oak.

"I see."

"Now the research institute will become more lively again." Xiao Jian said.

"Yes. Oh, by the way, this is my farewell gift to you, the Pokémon Guide of the Sinnoh region."

Professor Oak said, handing Ash a new Pokémon Pokedex.

"Thank you, Dr. Oak."

"That's it, Satoshi, keep going." said Professor Oak.

"Remember to keep in touch with us." Xiao Jian said.

"Be careful on the road." Hanako said.

"Yes, I will. Bye then."

Xiaozhi took only one Pokémon, Pikachu, to the port near Pallet Town, where he was going to take a boat to the Sinnoh region.

"That kid has gone away again." said Professor Oak.

"Yeah, but traveling frequently in pursuit of new adventures is kind of Satoshi," Hanako said.

On the other side, Xiaozhi boarded a ship at the port near Pallet Town and headed for the Sinnoh region.

"Okay, Sinnoh region, wait for me. Satoshi from Pallet Town is here. Pikachu, please give me your guidance from now on."

"Pikachu."

Soon, Xiaozhi's flight arrived at the port of Masaga Town in the Sinnoh region.

Suddenly, Xiaozhi seemed to have thought of something and hurried towards somewhere.

On the other side, Shuangye Town.

In the morning, accompanied by the sound of an alarm clock,

A blue-haired girl in a pink nightgown stretched out a hand lazily from under the quilt and turned off the Muckle-shaped alarm clock.

Then he covered his head with the quilt and continued to sleep to block out the sunlight coming in from the window.

Suddenly, the girl thought of something, so she lifted the quilt, opened the window and breathed in fresh air.

A few minutes later.

"Xiao Guang, are you awake?"

Mother Ayako's voice came from outside the door. After knocking on the door, Ayako pushed open the door of Xiaoguang's room.

"I woke up a long time ago."

At this time, Xiaoguang had changed her clothes and put on her familiar black and pink miniskirt, with a red scarf around her neck.

My hair is braided and I'm ready to go out.

Pogaman uses bubble light to help Xiaoguang tidy up his messy hair every day.

"Morning."

"Good morning, Mom."

"It's rare that you get up so early today."

"I got up early today too."

After Xiaoguang finished speaking, he squatted down again and greeted Charming Cat who came in with Ayako.

"Good morning, Charming."

Charm meowed, then ran over to Xiaoguang's bed and lay there.

Xiaoguang followed Ayako downstairs. Ayako had already prepared breakfast, and the two sat at the table to eat breakfast.

"Have you packed your luggage?" Ayako asked.

"Well, it was all done yesterday."

"There is one more important thing. Do you remember the way to the Yamanashi Research Institute?"

After graduating from school, Xiaoguang stayed at home in Futaba Town, but he had never been to Masaga Town, where the Yamanashi Research Institute was located in the neighboring town, even once.

"Of course, you see, I even brought a map.

And I am confident that I can get along well with any Pokémon, because I want to be a top coordinated trainer like my mother in the future." Xiao Guang said.

Hikaru's mother, Ayako, is a retired top Pokémon coordination trainer who had a great influence on Hikaru's growth.

Because of her mother, Xiaoguang decided at a young age that she also wanted to become a top Pokémon coordination trainer as powerful as her mother.

The house is filled with ribbon medals that Ayako received when she was young with her Pokémon Charming, photos of her performing with Charming, and ribbon trophies she won for winning at grand celebrations.

In the original animation, Ayako has been silently watching her daughter Hikaru's journey.

But she is reluctant to interfere too much with her daughter, and she tells Xiaoguang that it is better for her to rely on her friends instead of her mother, and to use her failure as an opportunity to learn.

"First of all, you must become an excellent Pokémon trainer.

Whether you are a Pokémon Coordinator, Pokémon Observer, or Pokémon Breeder, everyone starts out as a trainer." Said Ayako.

"I know this. One day I will stand on the stage of a gorgeous competition and give everyone a wonderful performance."

Xiaoguang said this and stood aside, imagining himself and Pogaman performing on the stage.

So much so that even when Ayako called her to eat twice, she didn't listen.

"Okay, okay, just continue to fantasize over there, if you're not afraid of not being able to see Xiaozhi." Ayako said unhappily.

"Yeah, I almost forgot."

After saying that, Xiaoguang immediately sat down and quickly finished his breakfast.

Seeing this, Ayako helplessly looked at her daughter who was bewitched by Xiaozhi.

I called her so many times but she didn't listen. But once I mentioned Xiaozhi's name, it worked better than any other words.

Moreover, the reason why Xiaoguang decided to travel today was because he heard that Xiaozhi was going to travel to the Sinnoh region.

Xiaoguang saw Xiaoyao's circle of friends posting that she and Xiaozhi won the ribbon medal of the Ash Wood Conference together. Previously, he had seen the photos that Xiaochun posted of her traveling with Xiaozhi, which made Xiaoguang very envious.
