Pokémon: Ash's Rebirth World Line Concludes

The wind stopped and the rain stopped. The morning after the rain was particularly cool. Xiaozhi slowly opened his eyes under the licking of Pikachu.

"Pika!" Seeing that Xiaozhi was awake, Pikachu immediately smiled widely.

"Hmm~ Pikachu, is it dawn already?" Xiaozhi rubbed his eyes dazedly.

"Pinch~" There was a soft movement in his arms. Xiaozhi lowered his head and saw Charmander's sparkling eyes.

"Charmander, are you feeling better?" Xiaozhi chuckled, and Charmander immediately jumped out of Xiaozhi's arms, revealing a burning tail flame.

Ash's Pokémon happily high-fived Charmander to celebrate.

Xiaozhi looked at the affection between Pikachu and Charmander and smiled knowingly.

I said that there was no need for 100,000 volts to wake me up today, it turns out it was just to give face to Charmander.

"Good morning, Satoshi." Souji and Seiko had also woken up and greeted Satoshi with full energy.

"Charmander, please let me see your tail." Souji came forward to check it attentively, and nodded to Xiaozhi: "It's fine now, it's back to normal."

"Thank you for your trouble." Xiaozhi sat up straight and looked at Charmander seriously: "Charmander, although I made you experience a bad memory before, are you still willing to trust humans?"

"Ni?" Charmander tilted his head and looked at Xiaozhi in confusion.

"Would you like to come with me?" Xiaozhi asked sincerely, "Become a partner and family member of me and Pikachu!"

"Pika!" Pikachu also nodded with a smile.

"Ni..." A smile just broke out on Charmander's lips when he suddenly remembered what Cross said.

"It's better for a useless little Charmander like this to die..."

"Ni~" Looking at Charmander's conflicted expression, Xiaozhi also understood what it was thinking.

The warm palm gently rubbed the head of the little dragon, Xiaozhi smiled and said: "I know what you are thinking, little dragon, don't worry about what others say. I believe in you, you must be the strongest little dragon!

How about it, do you want to work with me to become stronger?

Sooner or later we will give that bastard a good beating to prove how bad his vision is!"

Looking at Xiaozhi's expectant eyes, Charmander's face finally turned from cloudy to sunny.

The little guy nodded seriously and accepted Xiaozhi's invitation.

"Then~" Xiaozhi took out the Poké Ball, switched it to a big ball form, and placed it in front of Charmander.

"Ni~" Charmander murmured softly, lowered his head devoutly, and touched the switch of the Poké Ball.

The Poké Ball opens and closes. Excellent! Perfect capture.

"Come on, Charmander." Xiaozhi also touched the Poké Ball with his forehead and put it back to his waist.

"The weather has cleared up, and we've spotted Yan Di, so it's time for us to go down the mountain," Zongci suggested.

"That's right, I still have to challenge the Cerulean Gym!" Xiaozhi's eyes lit up.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go!" Chengzi raised his hands happily and cheered.

The three of them walked out of the cave shoulder to shoulder and headed down the mountain.

……

After returning to Cerulean City, at Souji's suggestion, Ash sent Charmander to the Pokémon Center for a physical check-up.

After confirming that everything was fine, the three of them went to the Hualan Gym together!

The largest swimming pool in the center of Cerulean City, this is where the Cerulean Gym is located.

"Let me see, please go through the side door to challenge the gym...what are the rules?" Chengzi put his hands on his hips in confusion.

"I think we should leave the gate open for the audience to enter." Xiaozhi glanced at his phone. The tickets for the morning session of the water ballet were sold out...

So annoying, I can't watch the swimsuit show...

"Water ballet is the specialty performance of Cerulean City. It is said that the three leading actors are all beautiful girls and stars in the world..." Souji explained.

Xiaozhi and Chengzi looked sideways: (￢_￢)...

"Souji~ Your research projects are quite extensive~" Seiko said Yin-Yang.

"Ahem~ That's what it says on this poster." Souji blushed.

"Well~ Anyway, let's go challenge the gym quickly." Xiaozhi shook his head: "Makoto, do you want to challenge together? Isn't your goal to become a powerful fighting trainer?"

"I don't have the courage yet." Makoto backed off a bit and said, "I'll wait until I capture more Pokémon and become more confident."

"Well, okay then." Xiaozhi shrugged. Every family has its own problems. As for Chengzi's problem, only she can decide it.

The three of them came to the side door and saw the Challenger entrance as expected.

After pushing open the glass door and walking through a corridor with locker rooms, Xiaozhi and the other two arrived at the main venue of the Cerulean Gym.

A huge swimming pool with its own diving platform and three large floating boards on top. This is the dedicated water venue.

"Welcome to the Hualan Gym!" Above the diving platform, a girl with a ponytail and a blue swimsuit stepped forward, revealing her beautiful figure.

Souji and Seiko automatically stepped back, leaving the home court to Satoshi.

Xiaozhi stood there with a bright smile: "Well~ more mature, the washboard has also changed, heroic and dashing, that's great~"

"Eh? What?" Misty on the diving platform didn't hear what Xiaozhi said and looked down curiously.

Xiaozhi pressed down the brim of his hat, calmed down his emotions, and took a step forward: "I am Xiaozhi from Pallet Town! I want to challenge the Cerulean Gym!"

"Good!" The girl jumped down from the platform and dived into the water. When she came out, she was lifted up by two bikini sisters.

"Oh~ awesome, awesome." Xiaozhi and the other two applauded together.

The disciples of Nibi Gym are only guarding the gate, while the disciples of Hualan Gym have to learn fancy swimming...

Xiaoxia smiled confidently and stood by the last swimming pool.

The two bikini sisters stood on the front and back floating boards.

The distance between the floating boards just divides the swimming pool into three areas.

"According to the rules of the Cerulean Gym, you must first defeat the two swimsuit beauties before you can challenge me. Come on~" Misty blinked at Satoshi.

Xiaozhi's face suddenly turned red... What? This Xiaoxia... is too good!

Seeing Xiaozhi's blushing face, Chengzi was speechless. She grabbed Xiaozhi's shoulders and shook him: "Xiaozhi! Wake up, don't be stupid in the game!"

"Xiaozhi~It's really hard for you." Souji shook his head, and the sketch pen in his hand was eager to try.

"Ahem!" Xiaozhi was almost choked to death by Chengzi's shaking, and quickly came to his senses: "Don't worry, Chengzi, I only have victory in my eyes, not white legs... Women will only affect the speed of my sword drawing..."

“Pfft~” Xiaoxia was amused by Xiaozhi’s appearance and shook her head and chuckled: “Kawaii~ Don’t worry, the sisters will take good care of you.”

Xiaozhi's mouth twitched: "Stop talking nonsense and let's fight."

With a flick of his coat, the sleeves fluttered behind him, Xiaozhi tightened his gloves, and walked to the first battle position.

Xiaoxia was suddenly stunned. After taking a closer look, she found that this challenger looked too much like a certain man.

Whether it's appearance or temperament...

"Yoshi! Be prepared, you straight man Red!" Xiaoxia clenched her fists in anticipation.

Xiaozhi looked at Xiaoxia's changes and couldn't help rolling his eyes: My intuition tells me that this girl thinks I am someone else.

My Lord, I am innocent...
