Pokémon Legends Ash

"How could this happen? I had already helped it overcome its fear of water, but how come it was defeated by the electric mouse?

What on earth is going on? ! "

Xiao Ming couldn't figure it out. He clearly had an advantage in attributes, but why? Could it be that he was too proud recently?

Xiao Ming began to reflect on himself and the mistakes he had made recently.

Xiaozhi looked at him pitifully and sighed helplessly.

"It seems like you still don't understand. You only care about why you lost. Have you ever thought about whether Sandshrew is happy doing this?

Didn't you notice just now? Its movements obviously slowed down once, it has been fighting for a whole day. But you don't care what happens to its body, you only care about your win or loss!

In my opinion, you are no different from the guy you are talking about! "

Xiaozhi left this sentence angrily and left with Xiaoxia. Xiaozhi was very angry now, even though the other party said that he was disappointed with the current Cerulean Gym.

But now he has become no different from the other person, a guy who doesn't care about his own Pokémon. This kind of person is not liked by Xiaozhi.

After leaving Xiao Ming's outdoor gym, Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia set out again towards Cerulean City.

"Xiaozhi, don't you have anything you want to ask?"

As they got closer to Cerulean City, Misty became more and more panicked. She thought about what Satoshi would think if he knew that she was the irresponsible successor of the Cerulean Gym.

"Hmm? What does Senior Xiaoxia mean by this?

Is there anything I should ask?”

Xiaozhi was confused by Xiaoxia's sudden question and didn't know what she meant.

"You should have guessed it. I am the heir of the Hualan Gym."

Xiaoxia finished speaking with a nervous mood, closed her eyes, and imagined Xiaozhi's disappointed look at her in her mind, not daring to look at him at all.

But after waiting for a while, Xiaoxia didn't hear Xiaozhi talking about her, and couldn't help but open her eyes. What she saw was Xiaozhi's shocked expression with his mouth open.

I bet you haven’t guessed it yet!!

Xiaoxia felt helpless. She didn't expect Xiaozhi to be such a slow-witted person. She thought he knew it a long time ago and was wondering why he didn't ask her.

Unexpectedly, the other party had never thought about this issue at all.

"Hahaha~ Xiaozhi is such an idiot! A huge idiot!"

"What's wrong? Senior Xiaoxia, why are you scolding me all of a sudden?"

"Nothing, I just don't like you."

"Hmm~"

Xiaoxia began to walk forward, jumping and humming a little tune, just like a little child, cute and energetic, and she seemed to be in a very good mood.

Girls are so hard to understand...

Xiaozhi didn't know why Xiaoxia's mood changed so quickly. She was clearly scolding him just now, but now she became very happy. For things he couldn't understand, Xiaozhi could only attribute it to the unique strangeness of girls.

Following Xiaoxia, they arrived at Hualan City soon.

The entrance to Cerulean City is next to a river, and fountains can be seen everywhere. With the naked eye, one can feel that this is a city surrounded by water.

"Alas, this guy Benbi refuses to accept the gym challenge. Sooner or later, the Hualan Gym will be closed because of him!"

"Who knows what he was thinking? He is clearly a half-baked person, but he actually dared to take over the Cerulean Gym."

"It's Xiaoxia. She has a strong fighting talent, but..."

As soon as he entered Cerulean City, Xiaozhi heard the conversation of passers-by. He glanced at Xiaoxia, who was lowering her head, like a child who had done something wrong, and looked very lost.

"Let's go to the Pokémon Center first, Misty-senpai. Pikachu is very tired from the battle with Xiao Ming just now."

Pikachu, hurry up and prepare.

Xiaozhi used his wave guide to have an inner conversation with Pikachu.

He knew that in her current state, it was not suitable for Misty to go to the Cerulean Gym. Therefore, Xiaozhi did not go to the local gym as soon as he arrived in a new city as usual.

“P…Pika…”

Pikachu, which was originally on Xiaozhi's shoulder, immediately pretended to be exhausted, as if a thousand-pound stone was pressing on it, and the whole Pokémon looked very tired.

"Xiao Zhi..."

Xiaoxia could guess why Xiaozhi did what he did, and she felt warm inside. She didn't expect that this cheap junior could be so warm-hearted.

"Senior Xiaoxia, stop talking and let's go."

Xiaozhi passed Xiaoxia and walked in front of her. At this moment, the roles between the two seemed to be reversed. Xiaoxia, who was originally the senior, was now like a child being led forward by Xiaozhi.

Following behind Xiaozhi, Xiaoxia felt that his back was very familiar, as if... she and her father were like this in the past...

"Welcome to the Pokémon Center, do you want treatment or something?"

This familiar feeling made Xiaozhi couldn't help but take a closer look at Joey in front of him. The familiar feeling surged into his heart. The heavy dark circles and lifeless eyes made him feel familiar.

"I need to regain my strength, Miss Joy."

Miss Joy nodded, took the Pikachu from Xiaozhi's hand, and kept her hand in the other's palm for a few seconds.

Xiaozhi was stunned for a moment, looked at the other person, then pretended nothing happened and put his hands in his trouser pockets.

After Pikachu's strength was restored, Xiaozhi asked Miss Joy for two rooms. Although Xiaoxia was from Cerulean and her home was also in Cerulean City, she didn't seem to want to go home in the current situation.

"Senior Xiaoxia, take a good rest and don't worry too much."

Hearing Xiaozhi's voice, Xiaoxia's door, which was about to close, suddenly stopped and remained like that for a long time.

Then, Xiaoxia poked her head out, her eyes red, stared at Xiaozhi and said: "Yeah, I know, thank you, Xiaozhi."

Looking at Xiaoxia, Xiaozhi was stunned. It wasn't because she looked too pretty or too pitiful just now.

But... he looked at Xiaoxia and thought of the figure who was far away in a foreign land and whom he had always missed.

When they returned to the room, Pikachu was lying on the bed bored. When he saw Xiaozhi, he just raised his hand and called out "Pikachu".

Xiaozhi just glanced at Pikachu, then fumbled in his trouser pocket and took out a ball of paper.

"Pica?" (What is this?)

"She put you in my hands just now when I gave you to Miss Joy.

Well, let me open it and see what Miss Joy wrote."

Xiaozhi said this as he slowly pulled the paper ball apart. A piece of paper about the size of his two palms appeared in his hand with a line of words written in the middle.

At twelve o'clock midnight, come to the lobby downstairs and find Pang Keding. He will bring you to see me and we will figure out the rest later.

Looking at this, Xiaozhi didn't know what the other party meant. However, he could only do as the other party said. After all, she was Miss Joy, and maybe there was something important.

Xiaozhi thought so, looked at the small TV in the room, and thought to himself:

It seems that this is the only way to kill time.

----------

At twelve o'clock midnight, the time Miss Joy wrote on the paper had arrived. Xiaozhi got dressed and cleaned up the Pokémon food left over by Monkey, Eevee, and Pikachu.

I took the Poké Ball and Pikachu, put on my clothes, and went downstairs.

The lobby downstairs was empty, with only Miss Joy's partner, Jigglypuff, waiting here. Because it was midnight, few people came to the Pokémon Center at this time.

"Fatty~"

Watching Xiaozhi walking down the stairs, Jigglypuff waved his hands happily at him. It seemed that he had been waiting here for a long time.

"Where are you taking me?"

"Pang Ke, Pang Ke~" (Don't worry about it, just follow me~)

"Okay, okay."

Xiaozhi had his hand held by Pancake, and it seemed like he was being dragged away by the other party.

Walking through the corridors of Miss Joy's area of ​​the Pokémon Center, there were some Pokémon lying on the beds with serious injuries and bandages in some of the lounges with the lights off.

Xiaozhi didn't have time to take a closer look. He just glanced at it quickly before being dragged away by Pancake to the deepest room at the end of the corridor.

A light from inside was still visible through the crack in the door; it seemed that Miss Joy was waiting inside.

"Is this it?"

After Pancake's affirmative answer, Xiaozhi no longer hesitated and turned the doorknob of the room.

Creak————

The door of the room opened...

[Everyone in Cerulean City seems to be discussing how declining the Cerulean Gym is today.

What does Xiaozhi think of his successor Xiaoxia? It seems to be positive.

Next, at midnight, he followed Fat Keding to a room as instructed by Miss Joy.

What exactly is waiting for him? What will he encounter in Cerulean City?

Please look forward to the next chapter... To be continued...]
