Pokémon Legends Ash

Chapter 2 A New Member of Xiaozhi's Family

What appeared in front of Xiaozhi and others was a small and cute Pokémon with a mainly yellow body and a pair of pointed ears.

"What is this? It's so cute~ It looks like Pikachu~"

Xiaolan looked at the Pokémon with a lot of love in her eyes. If this wasn't hatched from Xiaozhi's Pokémon egg, she would have already taken action.

"This is Pichu, the pre-evolution form of Pikachu. It was first discovered in the Chengdu area. Don't be fooled by its cuteness, but the electric shock it releases can paralyze even an adult."

Professor Oak walked over, looked at the tiny Pokémon in front of Ash and said, and touched its little head, but was met with a hostile look from the latter.

"Skin!!"

As if it didn't like Professor Oak touching its head, Pichu jumped onto his arm and immediately released a counterattack. The crackling sound spread throughout the institute, and a tingling sensation swept through Professor Oak's body.

"Zizzizi!"

"Numb, numb..."

Hit by Pichu's electric shock, Professor Oak instantly turned into an afro, fell to the ground and spewed black smoke from his mouth. Although it looked miserable, Xiaozhi and the others focused their attention on Pichu and not on Professor Oak.

"So its name is Pichu. Isn't this a great Pokémon~"

After hearing Professor Oak's explanation, Xiaozhi didn't show any disdain for Pichu. He held it high in his hands and seemed to like it very much.

"Skin~~"

Pichu seemed very happy to be held by Xiaozhi, with a bright smile on his face, making the little electric bags on both sides of his cheeks even more adorable.

"Tsk, it's just a Pichu. Even if it evolves, it's just a cute pet. It's not suitable for fighting at all~"

"What are you talking about, Xiaomao? The strength of Pokémon comes from the strength of its trainer. I believe Xiaozhi will definitely make Pichu the best Pichu in the world!!"

When Xiaolan heard Xiaomao's ridicule of Xiaozhi, he was the first to respond unhappily, emitting a vicious aura and pressing towards the other party.

"Hmph... Hmph, can Xiaozhi really do it? Pichu's upper limit is there, even if it evolves into Pikachu. Pikachu can never become the best in the world!"

Feeling the momentum coming from Xiaolan, Xiaomao was afraid, but he still responded stubbornly. Every word hit Xiaozhi's heart.

Let’s leave young people’s affairs to young people. It’s time for Xiaozhi to grow up.

Professor Oak quietly watched his grandson quarreling with Xiaolan, and he didn't want to get involved in such things. Although he also thought that Xiaomao was wrong first, it should be Xiaozhi who responded, both as the object of ridicule and as a trainer.

"I will! As long as Pichu is here, we will definitely reach the top!"

"Huh? Words are not enough, show me the evidence~~"

Seeing that Xiaozhi finally responded, Xiaomao also took the opportunity to immediately fight back and get rid of the quarrel with Xiaolan. He was afraid that if he continued to quarrel with Xiaolan, his face would be bruised.

"There's no evidence... but I will! I will become a Pokémon Master!"

"Tsk, I hope you'll keep your word."

Xiaozhi burst out with an astonishing momentum, and his eyes showed great confidence, which shocked Xiaomao.

Through each other's eyes, Xiaomao seemed to be able to see that in the distant future, Xiaozhi and Pikachu were standing on an empty peak, waiting for the challenger to arrive.

"That's great, Pichu~ Xiaomao is also supporting us~"

"Skin~~"

Seeing his master happy, Pichu also felt extremely happy, and the smile on his little cheeks had been there since a while ago.

"Hey! Poor Satoshi! I didn't mean that!"

"Hahaha! Xiao Mao, you're actually blushing. Are you shy?"

"No way! Asshole!!"

Looking at the three people who had started fighting after their previous argument, Professor Oak's mouth curled up slightly, and he liked this scene very much.

This is the power of Pokémon. Xiaozhi, have you taken the first step?

The three of them played for an unknown amount of time, turning the institute upside down, with even the materials and books on the bookshelves falling all over the floor.

After enjoying the fun of playing, Xiaozhi and others fell exhausted on the sofa in the research institute.

In Ash's arms, perhaps because it was just born, Pichu fell into a deep sleep just as it started playing.

Professor Oak looked at the research institute that seemed to be under attack, then looked at the three children who were already sleeping, and shook his head helplessly. He took out a big blanket from somewhere and covered Xiaozhi and the other two with it to prevent them from catching a cold.

Then he pulled out a red and white Poké Ball from his trouser pocket and slowly walked towards Xiaozhi.

It was probably around afternoon time, Xiaozhi and his friends had already woken up and were watching the live broadcast of the latest Quartz Conference finals together.

The Pokémon sent out by both sides were Gengar and Nidorino. Staring at the strong figures of the two Pokémon on the screen, Xiaozhi couldn't help but reveal a longing look.

Xiaozhi's mind gradually sank into the screen, imagining that it was himself and Pichu on the battlefield.

"Pichu, we'll be standing there one day!"

"Pichu, Pichu-pi!"

Pichu stayed in Xiaozhi's arms obediently. After hearing him calling him, he raised his head and looked at Xiaozhi. Those smart eyes seemed to say "I will!"

"Humph, poor Xiaozhi will never stand in the finals of the tournament, because I will take action!"

"Then how can you guarantee that you won't lose to Xiaozhi?"

Hearing Xiaomao's voice, Xiaolan responded very unhappily. It seemed that helping Xiaozhi to fight back against Xiaomao had become her habit, and she would be the first to speak up whenever this happened.

"I am Master Xiaomao, how could I possibly lose to Xiaozhi? And with his pet Pokémon, there is no way it can defeat mine~"

Xiaomao smiled disdainfully, his eyes revealing his disdain for Xiaozhi and Pikachu.

"Then why doesn't Master Xiaomao have a Pokémon yet?"

Xiaolan pinched his throat and said sarcastically, as if this sentence was not enough to relieve his anger, and quickly added: "Is it because pet Pokémon is not pleasing to your eyes?"

"Humph, what's it got to do with you?!"

After saying that, Xiao Mao turned his head away and didn't intend to continue answering Xiao Lan. After all, he really didn't have a Pokémon of his own.

It’s not that Xiaomao can’t afford it, but Professor Oak won’t buy it for him. He has to wait until he can embark on his journey before he can choose his first Pokémon from the Big Three.

As for the first one, Xiaomao, like Xiaozhi, had already decided what to choose. He was also looking forward to the day when he could get his own Pokémon and embark on a journey to become a Pokémon Master before Xiaozhi.

"You two stop arguing. Sooner or later, Blue and Mao will have their own Pokémon, right? Then you must have a Pokémon battle with me, just like on TV."

"Pichu~"

Xiaozhi smiled and lifted Pichu up and placed it in front of the people.

"It's getting dark, Ash. Your mom just called and asked you to come home for dinner. By the way, take this Poké Ball. It's Pichu's Poké Ball. Please take good care of it."

Professor Oak suddenly appeared behind everyone, pointed at the clock hanging on the wall and took out a red and white Poké Ball.

"Eh? Pichu's? When did Professor Oak put it in the ball?"

"Of course it was when you were asleep, but this little guy didn't seem to like staying in the Poké Ball. He jumped out on his own as soon as I put him in."

Professor Oak said this, and held the Poké Ball in front of Pichu. As a result, Pichu bared his teeth and threatened the Poké Ball as if he had seen an enemy.

"Is that so? Thank you, Professor Oak~"

Seeing Pichu's stressful reaction, Xiaozhi also understood how much Pichu disliked the Poké Ball. So he took the ball from Professor Oak and put it in his pocket to prevent Pichu from seeing it.

"As for Xiaolan, you have to stay with us for dinner tonight. Your mother called and said she had something to deal with today. So I asked you to stay with me for one night."

"Okay, thank you, Doctor. I'm sorry that my mother is always like this."

"Hahaha, no no, as long as you are willing to stay here. Xiaomao, you must get along well with Xiaolan and don't bully her."

"Bullying her... She bullies me, right?"

After hearing what his grandfather said, Xiao Mao couldn't help but mutter in a low voice. However, his voice reached Xiao Lan's ears and he got a vicious look from her.

Noticing that Xiaolan heard his voice, Xiaomao stiffened, turned his head to the side with embarrassment, and whistled as if nothing had happened.

In addition to Professor Oak, Xiaozhi also noticed the little interaction between the two. His pupils were shaking, and it was unknown what he was thinking, but the smile on the corner of his mouth looked a little lonely.

"Then I'm leaving first, Professor Oak."

"Okay, Xiaozhi, be careful on your way."

Xiaozhi said goodbye to Professor Oak and walked out of the door of the institute. Xiaomao and Xiaolan were still looking at each other, and their eyes seemed to be communicating something, and they did not notice Xiaozhi's departure.

Before the door of the institute closed, Xiaozhi looked inside and saw Xiaomao playing with Xiaolan. The two were laughing happily, but he felt that something was missing, but he didn't know what it was.

"Come home, Pichu. Mom will definitely like you."

The door closed, and Xiaozhi lowered his head and just happened to look Pichu in the eye. Not wanting it to see anything in his eyes, he immediately smiled and spoke to it.

Xiaozhi set out on the road home, and when he looked back again, the Oak Research Institute had become a small black dot. However, he seemed to sense that two people appeared at the door of the institute.

"Mom, I'm back~ I have good news for you."

"Xiaozhi is back, wash your hands and get ready for dinner, and help mom put the dishes on the table. As for the good news, it won't be too late to tell you after you finish eating~"

Xiaozhi's mother was busy in the kitchen. When she heard her son's familiar voice, the heavy weight in her heart finally fell. She responded to Xiaozhi gently, speeding up the stir-frying with the spatula in her hand.

"Hmm? Did Xiaozhi get confused during play? Why did he take an extra bowl?"

Hanako came to the dining table with the stew that had just come out of the pot, and saw that there was one more bowl on the table that should have been for two people. When she was about to put it away, Xiaozhi suddenly appeared and quickly interrupted her actions.

"Wait wait, Mom! Don't put it away yet, this is Pichu's bowl."

"Pichu? Is that the little guy?"

"Yes, it's the Pichu that hatched from the Pokémon egg that Professor Oak gave me."

Hanako looked at the Pichu in Xiaozhi's hand, and continued with a gleam in her eyes: "It's so cute, it suits you very well, Xiaozhi~"

Hanako said as she hugged Satoshi and Pichu, burying the two little guys in her chest and hugging them tightly.

"Mom! Mom! Let go, I can't breathe..."

"Pichu, Pichu, chu~~"

"Hahaha, sorry, mom is too excited. Xiaozhi also has his own Pokémon, so our family has a new member."

Hanako's face was filled with a happy smile, but for some reason, even though she was smiling, tears were welling up in her eyes.

"Mom, let's eat. Let's eat together as a family."

Xiaozhi hugged Hanako, and the voice entered her ears. He took the initiative to wipe away the tears that were about to flow from her eyes. A pair of small and tender hands could make Hanako feel extremely warm.

Hanako nodded and said "yeah", then stood up and sat at the dining table with Xiaozhi. Xiaozhi placed Pichu on the dining table, next to its bowl, so that it would be easier to eat.

"I'm gonna start now!"

"Picchupi~"

Pichu watched Hanako and Satoshi perform the pre-dinner etiquette of putting their hands together, and pretended to follow suit, mumbling cute words.

"Come on, Pichu, I don't know if this is to your taste."

Hanako scooped a spoonful of the soft stew and poured it into the small bowl in front of Pichu. The sweet aroma instantly rushed to Pichu's face.

"Skin~~"

Pichu stuck out his tongue and licked the soup in the bowl, and the hot stew entered his body. He could feel his body getting warm in an instant, and energy began to replenish his small body.

Seeing Pikachu's intoxicated expression, Hanako's smile never stopped. As a cook, their happiness lies in seeing their diners enjoy their food.

"Come on, Xiaozhi, eat more, and Pichu should eat more~"

"Mom, there's so much food that we can't finish, why don't you try some too..."

"Pichu Pichu burp~~"

Looking at Pikachu's bloated belly and his bowl filled with meat, Xiaozhi seemed helpless.

"Here, Mom, these are for you."

As Xiaozhi said this, he took some of the meat from his bowl and put it into Hanako's bowl, and then exchanged the other person's vegetarian dish for his own.

After doing all this, he seemed to be afraid that his mother would change it back, so he quickly added: "You have to eat the vegetarian dishes too, and you have to have a balanced diet. Isn't that what mom said?"

"Ah~ Tomato salad is delicious, mom is amazing, please teach me how to make it next time~"

"Okay, if you want, Mommy will give it all to you."

"Then it's agreed."

"Yes, it's a deal~"

"Pichu!!!"

At this moment, Pikachu screamed, and Xiaozhi and Hanako turned around and were immediately at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Pichu was so full that his body became round and somehow got stuck in the bowl. The cute way his little arms fluttered around was quite funny, and Xiaozhi and Hanako couldn't help but laugh.

Dinner ended with laughter and joy, and the time of night was naturally to prepare for sleep. Xiaozhi, who had just finished bathing, changed into pajamas, walked out of the bathroom with Pichu who fell asleep in the middle of the bath, and walked towards his room on the second floor.

Lying on a big bed, Xiaozhi recalled everything that happened today. The birth of Pichu and the day when he joined this family will surely be unforgettable for him.

Just before he fell asleep, he was thinking about whether the figure slept well and had a good meal. With such questions, he gradually fell into a deep sleep.

[Satoshi's journey has not yet begun, but his destined partner has already appeared, and the addition of a new member to the family seems to make Hanako very happy! What will happen next? Let's wait and see, to be continued...]
