Pokémon the Movie: Pallet Town Rookie

When Asu saw Xiaoyuan accept the flying wing badge, he smiled and said, "By the way, Xiaoyuan, there is a place I suggest you go and take a look."

Xiao Yuan heard what Ah Su said and asked curiously, "Oh? Where? Is it near here?"

Asu thought for a while and said, "It's a little far from our Kikyo City, but it will take at most a week to get there."

"Oh, really? Then approximately where is it?" Xiao Yuan asked again.

Ah Su heard Xiao Yuan's question and smiled, then threw a map over and said, "Xiao Yuan, don't worry, I've already prepared everything. Follow the map and you'll be there in no time."

Xiao Yuan took the map and slowly opened it with doubt. Looking at the path on the map, she asked in surprise, "Is this the Charizard Valley?"

Ah Su said: "Yes, Xiao Yuan, I think you should go to this place. Besides, there is someone who has been waiting for you there for a long time."

"There is a person?" Xiao Yuan was a little confused when she heard what Asu said, but she figured it out after a while and said, "Oh, really, if Mr. Du wants to see me, just come directly! Why make it so complicated? Mr. Asu, don't worry, I will definitely go to this Charizard Valley!"

After saying that, Xiao Yuan rolled up the map, took back the Pidgeot, rushed out the door, and walked towards the Pokémon Center.

Nana was a little at a loss when she saw Xiaoyuan leaving, because, logistically speaking, after arriving in Kikyo City, Dr. Kongmu's commission would be over, and naturally there was no need to take Nana with him anymore. However, after spending nearly half a month together, most of the things on the road were taken care of by Xiaoyuan. If she really had to travel alone, she really didn't know what to do.

Nana had no choice but to follow Xiaoyuan out of the gym. Looking at Xiaoyuan's back, she finally mustered up the courage to say, "Wait, Xiaoyuan-senpai, wait for me, Xiaoyuan-senpai, can you please..."

At this point, Nana's face became redder and she lowered her head, holding the corner of her clothes tightly with both hands, stirring her fingers constantly, as if the corner of her clothes had become her only support at the moment. Her body trembled slightly, as if she was trying to restrain her inner shyness and uneasiness, but the more she did so, the more embarrassed and entangled she seemed.

Finally, Nana took a deep breath and raised her head as if she had made up her mind. However, when her eyes met the other person's, she was defeated in an instant, her eyes flickered, and she didn't dare to look directly at the other person. Her lips trembled slightly, and she seemed to have thousands of words to say, but she didn't know where to start. For a moment, the street fell into silence, and only Nana's nervous breathing could be clearly heard.

Xiao Yuan looked at Nana's expression and probably understood, so she asked, "Nana, do you want to continue traveling with me?"

When Nana heard Xiaoyuan's words, her eyes instantly came back to life and she nodded slightly.

Xiao Yuan looked at Nana's dependent look, sighed slightly, and said: "Nana, since your goal is the same as mine, you should know that if you want to be a trainer who focuses on the League Tournament, you can't always hide behind others. Nana, let me ask you, do you know why no matter how many competition systems the local leagues create, the League Tournament is still the most important one?"

Nana heard this and shook her head.

Seeing that Nana couldn't answer, Xiaoyuan continued, "That's because the key task of the League Tournament is selection, selecting gym trainers, selecting the Four Heavenly Kings, and even the champions of a district. These people are all there to protect peace and tranquility. They have no barriers, because they are the biggest barrier for the people of the world. If they lose, what will happen to the people? Therefore, every trainer who participates in the League Tournament must pass the test of the eight badges to truly qualify, because if the world is really in danger, they must be the saviors standing at the forefront of the charge! So, Nana, the road ahead depends on you, you can't hide behind me anymore!"

Nana was sad when she heard this and said, "So that's how it is, Senior Xiaoyuan. No wonder you asked me if I wanted to go to the gorgeous competition. But if I really agreed at that time, Senior, would you be willing to continue to take me with you?"

Xiao Yuan nodded when she heard this and said, "I will! Nana, if you really want to go to the gorgeous competition, I can take you on a trip, but is this really what you want in your heart?"

After they finished talking, the two of them fell into a long silence as they watched the sunset. When Nana heard Xiaoyuan's words, she lowered her head in frustration, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

Finally, Nana said silently: "Senior, I understand. The moment we choose to become trainers, we must shoulder the responsibility of trainers. As trainers in the league competition, the burden on their shoulders is even heavier, because their future may very well be the protector of a land. Senior, don't worry, I will definitely make you look at me with new eyes the next time we meet."

After she finished speaking, Nana immediately turned around and ran away madly. Xiao Yuan looked at Nana's lonely back and couldn't help but shouted, "Nana, wait... Hey, I'm sorry!"

When Nana heard Xiaoyuan's words, she stopped and felt even more distressed. She said, "Senior, you don't have to say sorry. I know you are doing this for my own good. Please take care of yourself in the future!"

At this moment, Xiaoyuan suddenly found a few crystal clear tears sliding down Nana's pale cheeks. They were like bright pearls, shining charmingly under the golden afterglow of the setting sun. These tears gently fell on the ground, as if blending into this warm and generous land. With the sound of Nana's footsteps gradually fading away, they turned into the most dazzling colorful clouds in the sky, beautiful and heartbreaking.

Xiao Yuan watched Nana leave, and could only sigh helplessly, muttering to herself: "Nana, don't blame me for being cruel, it's just that this Pokémon world has never been peaceful. If you really have this opportunity in the future, you must be responsible for the creatures here and keep them safe. Therefore, this road of experience can only be walked by you alone."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yuan looked at the colorful clouds in the distance and said with emotion: "I have established my heart for the world and my life for the people. Now that I have embarked on this path of protection, I can no longer turn back. After all, this world is not at peace!"

At this time, Xiaoyuan looked up at the sky and vaguely saw a green figure passing by and breaking through the sky, as if responding to Xiaoyuan's heart. Suddenly, Xiaoyuan immediately recovered and walked towards the Pokémon Center to heal Pidgeot and the others.
