Pokemon: Release? Nonexistent

Chapter 597: Departure to Indigo Plateau

(Second update! Please collect and send flowers!!)

Looking at the huge figure in front of him, no wonder Ash replied that it was a bit troublesome to take care of him. It would be difficult for anyone to take care of this big guy.

But it's not too serious for Professor Oak. There are so many Pokémon here, and it's not that easy to take care of Ash's 15 Tauros.

In fact, it doesn’t take much experience here, because the Laboratory itself was built based on natural ecology when it was established.

The Pokémon living here are actually not much different from living in the wild, and they can completely fend for themselves.

So after Professor Oak was surprised, he was actually amazed that Ash could conquer such a big guy.

And not long after, I also saw a strange figure, that was Haxorus.

Professor Oak naturally recognizes that Haxorus is the evolved form of Ash's Fraxure.

It's just that the color of the body is different from the normal Haxorus. The original color of Haxorus's body scales should be military green.

And this Fraxure, which has a special color, has black scales all over its body after it evolves. This is the first time Professor has seen it because of his sleepiness.

Although Fraxure has been here for a while and the research is basically completed, he is still very interested in the evolved Black Haxorus and wants to find an opportunity to study it.

Ash, not knowing what Professor Oak was thinking, returned home immediately.

I said hello to Delia, then took a shower and put on clean clothes. After packing my luggage, I said goodbye to Delia.

Starting again from Pallet Town, the Pokémon Ash carries are still Pikachu, Pidegeotto, Charizard, Jiechenjiao, Venusaur and Self-Clamping Mantis.

It doesn't make much sense what Pokémon to bring at this time, because after arriving at Indigo Plateau, the Pokémon used can be replaced with those from Laboratory at any time, and Ash still brings the final lineup from the previous trip.

Kanto Alliance, located at the highest point of Indigo Plateau, is the official alliance of Kanto Region Pokémon Trainer, and it is also where every Indigo Plateau Conference is held.

Indigo Plateau is located in the west of Joban City. This road is originally deserted, but at this time of year, Trainers from all over the world gather together like carps crossing the river. Normal

Regardless of whether they are qualified to participate in the Indigo Plateau Conference or not, people who are not qualified will come here.

Trainers who have not received enough Badges naturally want to see how they compare with these qualified Trainers.

And there are many people who will rush to the scene to watch the game, so this desolate wilderness will become very lively at this time of year.

Route 23, the only road leading to the Kanto Alliance location, is a road full of history.

Trainers pass through here every year, some jump to the top and become champions, while others lose and start over again.

Even today, trainers who are elites and champions have walked this road before, so this road 23 is also called Victory Road.

Ash and the other three set out and arrived at Joban City first. They stayed at the Joban City Pokémon Center, rested for a day, and set out again the next day, embarking on this road that all Trainers dream of.

"Ash what's wrong with you?"

After checking in, Ash sat on a bench outside the Pokémon Center and looked at the buildings in the distance.

Misty hugged Togepi and Xiaogang and walked out. She saw Ash sitting outside alone, walked up and sat next to him.

"Nothing!" Ash shook his head slightly and withdrew his gaze.

"Are you nervous because you are going to attend the Indigo Plateau Conference?" Misty looked at Ash's worried expression and said deliberately.

"Even if I have to be nervous, it's not now!" Ash smiled slightly after hearing this, leaning on the bench, holding his head in his hands and watching Soaring in the sky's calm response.

When I met Bruno, I heard that Joban Gym seemed to have been locked up by the police. It has been a few weeks now, and I don’t know what the situation is now.

The news reported the disbandment of Team Rocket, but there was no news on whether Banmu, the culprit, was captured.

0Please ask for flowers......

Ash didn't know what he was thinking now. Logically speaking, Banmu's arrest had nothing to do with him.

But he thought to himself that if there really was someone who could compete with Banmu, he wouldn't want him to be captured. It would be a pity if there was no such Rival in the future.

After gathering some emotions, he was about to get up. Suddenly, the pedestrians on the road seemed to be in a hurry, and everyone ran to a street not far away.

At this time, the three of them noticed that on the street in front, people were already gathering on both sides of the road, as if they were waiting for something.

"What's going on there?" Looking over there, Misty asked with confusion.

0

"It looks like he's waiting for something!" Xiaogang also responded.

"Let's go over and have a look!" It's a woman's nature to like to join in the fun. When Misty saw this, she didn't wait for Ash and Xiaogang to respond and ran over with Togepi in her arms.

Ash and Xiaogang looked at each other and had no choice but to follow them and came to the roadside. At this time, there was no one on the road and everyone was standing on both sides of the road.

And there were not only passers-by, but also no vehicles. The entire street was empty. Some uniformed police officers could be seen on both sides of the road, maintaining order at this time.

"What happened?" Xiaogang looked for a passerby and asked.

"Don't you know? The sacred flame used by the Indigo Plateau Conference will be delivered here soon. Everyone is here to see the sacred flame." A passerby heard the sound and responded.

"Holy fire?" Misty looked confused after hearing this.

“This is a ceremony at the opening ceremony of the Indigo Plateau Conference. Every year before the start of the Conference, the torch will be relayed from Indigo Plateau.

"Starting from Indigo Plateau, it will tour every city in the Kanto Region, and then it will be sent back to Kanto Alliance to light the flame during the opening ceremony."

This ceremony is not unfamiliar to Ash. It is just like the Olympic Games in his previous life. In fact, the Alliance Conference can also be understood as the Olympic Games in his previous life. Ash thinks it is still very meaningful. .
