Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 316 Ash: Mammon is such a good person!

"This is... a croaking frog?"

Xiaoxia looked at the light blue Pokémon with curiosity.

It resembles a frog in shape, with large yellow eyes and white foam on its mouth, nose, back, and neck.

Misty, who loves water-type Pokémon, recognized it immediately as Froakie, a water-type Pokémon.

"Froakie?" Ash looked at the small and cute-looking Froakie with great interest and picked up the Pokédex.

'Ding~ Froakie, Water-type, Froakie Pokémon'

Bubbles erupt from the chest and back, using bouncy bubbles to deflect attacks and reduce damage.

"Froakie, is that the Water-type Pokémon that Kalos gives to new trainers?"

Xiao Gang recalled for a moment.

“That’s right. I think this is a good match for you, Ash. Its final evolution is Greninja, a Water/Dark type.”

Mammon said with a smile.

"I quite like it! It can even blow bubbles?"

Ash bent down slightly and poked the foam on Froakie's back with his finger; it was very bouncy.

He liked the frog the moment he saw it.

The concept of "first impression" is hard to explain. Some people just fall in love with a Pokémon at first sight, even if that Pokémon isn't considered aesthetically pleasing by the average person.

But that's what I call first impressions.

Sensing Ash's movement, Froakie tilted its head slightly, its eyes fixed on Mammon.

"Yes, I hope you like it. And Ash, there's something very interesting I have to tell you."

Mammon looked at the Froggy Frog.

"In the Carlos region, there is a village called Ninja Village. It is said that in the history of this Ninja Village, a hero named Greninja once saved the village, and since then, the village has been associated with a heroic legend."

Mammon began his narration slowly.

"Wow~ That's amazing~!" Ash was very interested.

"When your bond with your Pokémon is strong enough, your Greninja might become your 'hero,' Ash. If you're willing to accept this Froakie, I hope you'll treat it well."

Mammon hesitated for a moment, but still didn't deliberately tell Ash about Greninja's Bond Pose.

The bond phenomenon refers to the special bond between Ash and his Greninja in the anime.

After the Bond Pact transformation, Greninja can 'evolve' into Ash's Greninja.

This form of Greninja was also officially incorporated into the game, with its base stats increased by 110 points, 10 points more than Mega Evolution.

Normally, there is no legitimate way to obtain Ash's Greninja in the game, because to transform it, you can only get Greninja with the 'Bond Transformation' ability.

Greninja frogs, under normal circumstances, only possess the characteristics of turbulent waters and the ability to change direction freely.

Greninja with the Bond Phenomenon ability is only available as a story reward in Sun/Moon Deluxe Edition.

In this world, when Froakie eventually evolves into Greninja, will it be able to form a strong bond with Ash and transform into Greninja?

Mammon thinks it's acceptable if this person is Ash Ketchum.

After all, when it comes to loving and believing in Pokémon, Ash, who is naturally the one who can most easily form a bond with Pokémon, has a natural advantage.

"Please rest assured and leave it to me! I will definitely take good care of it!"

Ash was taken aback for a moment, then broke into a big smile and gave Mammon a firm assurance.

He actually gleaned some special meaning from Mammon's words, but Ash didn't understand what it was. Was this Froakie special?

Regardless of what Mammon says, Ash will treat Froakie with care as long as he is willing to accept it.

Because he truly loves all Pokémon, especially the Pokémon he caught.

"That's good. I look forward to the day when you shine with it."

Mammon smiled and nodded. Yes, he was indeed looking forward to seeing Ash and his Greninja battle against their opponents.

But speaking of it...

Mammon suddenly realized something: Mega Evolution, Z-Moves, Dynamax, and Crystallize—everyone has four ways to enhance themselves.

Ash can also form a bond with Greninja, which means he has five systems against someone else's four systems.

Yes, that makes sense, since in the anime Ash Ketchum, he uses multiple systems to fight against those with fewer systems.

Moreover, the anime has clearly stated the drawbacks of Bond Pact: if Greninja in Bond Pact is injured, Ash will also experience some pain.

The Bond Transformation takes a huge toll on Ash's stamina.

Compared to the Bond Transformation, other enhancement methods do not have such serious drawbacks.

After handing Froakie over to Ash, Mammon took Cattleya and Plantina back to the hotel.

"Froakie is so cute, but it looks a bit silly." Ash picked up Froakie and liked it more and more, and couldn't help but smile.

"He is indeed a bit adorable, but since it was given to him by Mammon, there's no need to worry about his talent and aptitude," Xiao Gang said with a smile.

"That's right, Mammon wouldn't give you a flawed Pokémon, and Ash, Mammon is really good to you."

Xiaoxia agreed wholeheartedly, and even expressed envy for Xiaozhi as she spoke.

Honestly, she felt that Mammon was really too good to Ash.

Not only did they give him an Ultra Beast, but knowing that Ash's Squirtle was now considered Ash's 'flaw,' they immediately gave him a Froakie that could be trained as a Water-type champion. This was undoubtedly a Pokémon they specifically found for Ash.

What an amazing boss!
That's so thoughtful!
"Ha~" Xiao Zhi scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

"I misunderstood Mammon before, but it's okay, I'll help Mammon from now on!"

Xiao Zhi said so firmly, and that's right, his impression of Mammon has completely reversed!

As long as Mammon doesn't do anything bad, it won't matter who comes, as Ash said!
Mammon is such a good person!

the other side.

"You've put a lot of thought into Ash, Mammon."

Inside the hotel suite, Cattleya tilted her head and said to Mammon.

Prantina didn't rush into her room either, but sat to the side holding a cup of Moo Moo Milk and watching the two of them curiously.

Yes, this is a habit I learned from Cattleya.

It is said that drinking milk is good for health and also helps with development.

"Xiao Zhi has the potential, and his network of connections is also extraordinary."

Mammon poured himself a glass of juice, took a sip, and smiled.

"Oh?"

Cattleya was curious; if we're just talking about potential, Mei and Touko also have extremely high potential.

However, it is clear that Mammon has not yet devoted that much attention to them.

"Ash is from Pallet Town, Catalonia. Pallet Town is no ordinary place."

Mammon relaxed and leaned back on the sofa, glancing at the sofa on the other side.

Kapoor Finkey, Jirachi, and Victini, the three 'veterans,' were curiously observing the newcomer, Marshadow.

Marcia had tried her best to shrink herself in; well, she felt like she was melting.

The pressure is immense!
“Pallet Town, is that the town where Dr. Yukinari Ohki lives now?” Prantina remembered.

She had heard Dr. Yamanashi mention this because she had worked as an assistant at his research institute.

"That's right. Ash and Professor Oak have a very close relationship. Ash is practically a child that Professor Oak watched grow up. Ash's mother also has a very good relationship with Professor Oak."

"Of course, this percentage is not very high; the main reason is Ash's older brother."

Mammon nodded.

"Oh?" Gadriya realized that the key point was coming.

"This generation of Pallet Town is really amazing. Ash and his twin brother Red are both incredibly talented trainers, especially Red. I met him once in Celadon City."

"That guy is the most talented trainer I've ever seen in battle. There are very few trainers in the whole world who can compare to him."

Mammon marveled.

Upon hearing this, both Cattleya and Prandina were quite surprised, as they did not believe Mammon would make such a joke.

So that means the crimson color is really that exaggerated!
"What kind of mother is this? Did she give birth to twins who are both so gifted?" Prantina exclaimed in adorable amazement.

This can truly be described as a family with two prodigies.

"Not only that, as far as I know, besides Red and Ash, Oak's grandson, Green, is also a monster. His talent for raising Pokémon is extremely outstanding, and his battle strength is also very strong. He is a formidable rival to Red."

Mammon gently moved his right palm and said with interest.

The only regrettable thing is that, so far, he has not met Qinglu.

The true first champion, Ooki Aomine, is undoubtedly a 'monster'.

As a formidable rival to Crimson's childhood friend, Green's talent as a trainer is undeniable, even before the final championship battle.

His numerous battles with Crimson during their travels were evenly matched, with each side winning and losing, and he could even be said to have slightly dominated Crimson.

However, in the most important championship match, Crimson defeated Green, taking the championship he had just taken, and it was a Pyrrhic victory.

However, after this championship battle, perhaps because the defeat was too unforgettable, the proud and arrogant Blue Green restrained his arrogance and became the Gym Leader of Viridian City. It can be said that his spirit was crushed by Red.

Crimson's growth as the Kanto champion did not stop. He eventually entered the Silver Mountain Dugu Qiubai and became the Silver Mountain Legend.

While Azure was also known as a 'battle legend,' it was clear that it didn't catch up with Crimson's strength.

"what?"

Prantina tilted her head, quite surprised.

No, three 'monsters'? And from the same generation, from the same town?
"It's incredible, isn't it? Yet this era is truly magnificent."

Mammon couldn't help but sigh, realizing that 'monsters' who used to appear only once every few decades were now emerging one after another in this era.

What Mammon didn't actually say was that, in addition to the three Crimsons, Pallet Town also has Azure.

Although Azure's trainer talent wasn't as outstanding as Red's or the other two, it was still absolutely 'monster' level.

In other words, four 'monsters' appeared in Pallet Town at once!
Damn it, this is the Kanto region!!

"There will definitely be a World Championship in the future. Gatria, Hikari, you two must not slack off. Let others see the strength of our Rockets team."

Mammon smiled and, with his legs crossed, spoke calmly to the two women.

The World Championship, a world-class tournament to determine the world's strongest trainers, is something Mammon believes the League will definitely hold in the future.

Hmm, the Eight Masters?
He directly led the Rockets' super team to dominate the rankings!
