Pokémon: Ash the New Generation, Starting from Sinnoh

"Mimi~"

However, Curly-Ears' attention was not on Long-Eared Rabbit at all. Instead, it ran over to Pikachu and winked at the yellow-skinned mouse.

This left Ash and Dawn somewhat speechless, both amused and exasperated.

"Excuse me, everyone!"

The woman patiently watched Curly-ear's "love confession," then walked up to the three of them and said, "You are Mr. Ash and Ms. Dawn, the doubles champions, right?"

"Yes!" Xiao Guang nodded shyly after being recognized.

"Ok!"

Ash calmly replied.

"This beautiful lady, my name is Xiao Gang, and I once achieved a top-four finish in the Yuanzhi Doubles Tournament..."

Xiao Gang also entered a state of madness at this moment, putting on his familiar perverted face and kneeling on one knee.

"Sorry, are you participating in the competition?" However, Baris looked blank, but her words deeply hurt Xiao Gang's heart.

The unruly frogs that had been gathering their strength silently lowered their claws, knowing that they were no longer needed this time.

Chapter 165 Fashion Show, The Origin of the "Hall of Light"

"My name is Paris, and it's nice to meet you all here!"

"It really is Miss Paris, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Xiao Guang looked at her excitedly, as if he recognized her.

This left Xiaozhi and Xiaogang, who were standing nearby, completely confused.

"Miss Paris is a famous elf fashion designer in Yuanzhi City. She's very well-known in fashion magazines!" Xiao Guang took out a magazine and explained to the two of them.

"Now that you mention it, I think I vaguely remember her!" Xiao Zhi suddenly realized and recalled the woman.

It's normal to forget people when too much time has passed.

"You remember Ash? I think I do too!" Despite his confusion, Brock mimicked Ash's expression, feigning sudden realization.

Just tell him directly, whether it's true or not, just play dumb with Xiaozhi.

Paris didn't care about such details. Instead, she looked at the Destiny Gym behind the three of them and asked with a smile, "Are you planning to challenge the Destiny Gym?"

"Yes, the last time I passed through Yosuga City, Gym Leader Melissa wasn't there. More than a month has passed, but I didn't expect it to be the same!"

"Sigh... really!"

Taking this opportunity, Xiao Zhi vented his frustration and sighed helplessly.

"Um... because Master Melissa is a fan of grand competitions, she's probably a judge at some competition right now!"

As a resident of Yukino City, Paris knew Melissa's personality to some extent and felt embarrassed to take on the task.

He would offer a casual explanation and then steer the conversation to other topics.

“If you don’t mind, the three of you can come to the fashion convention to change your mood!” Paris said earnestly.

"Oh, really?" Xiao Guang was taken aback, then overjoyed.

"What kind of competition is this?" Xiao Gang asked, puzzled.

"This is a competition where contestants showcase the charm of Pokémon through their own designed decorations!" Baris explained.

"Fashion Contest, I think it's similar to a grand contest, the focus is on showcasing the charm of Pokémon, right!"

He was deeply impressed by this match.

It was in this very match that Hikaru completely established the right attitude towards the Grand Contest.

"Really? Then I want to participate!" Upon hearing that it was similar to the Grand Contest, Dawn raised her hand and volunteered, "What about you, Ash? Want to come along too!"

“Yes, this kind of competition has no entry requirements, everyone can participate!” Paris suggested with a smile.

"Sure, I don't have anything else to do!" After thinking for a moment, and seeing Hikari's expectant gaze, Ash agreed.

"Then I'll participate too. It'll be a perfect opportunity to showcase my clothing-making skills!"

Xiao Gang was very confident, and seemed to be eager to show himself in front of Paris, so he became quite enthusiastic.

Next, the three of them got into Paris's luxury car and headed to the competition venue to register.

However, when they were registering, they encountered a noble young lady who was dressed in a flamboyant manner and was extremely arrogant, leaving Xiao Zhi and his two friends speechless.

However, they didn't focus on each other, because they also needed to prepare the outfits for their respective Pokémon.

This really tests whether an individual's aesthetic sense can fully bring out the charm of Pokémon!

It shares a similar concept with the Grand Contest.

Ash and Brock were fine; they were just having fun and designing outfits for their respective Eggs, preparing to send them out in battle.

The design focused on cuteness, and they quickly designed clothes that the two little ones would like.

However, Xiao Guang's situation is not so simple.

The other party seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding again, and by evening, they still hadn't designed any clothes that met their expectations.

"What, isn't it ready yet?" Xiao Zhi couldn't help but move closer to the girl, looking at the design in her hand.

"It's almost there, but something feels off. Can you take a look?" Xiao Guang pouted pitifully and placed the blueprints in front of Xiao Zhi.

"Then let me take a look!"

Ash glanced at Dawn's design sketches and commented meaningfully, "Dawn, don't be influenced by anyone. The essence of this fashion convention is the same as the Grand Contest: the main characters are Pokémon!"

Flipping through Xiaoguang's design sketches, I discovered that the other party had unknowingly developed a trend towards glamorous clothing, which I suppose was due to the influence of that rich girl.

"Oh right, Pokémon are the main characters!" After Ash's reminder, she suddenly realized, "Then I know what to do!"

After hastily leaving a "thank you," Xiao Guang, bursting with inspiration, immediately began to write.

Under Xiaozhi's watchful eye, a satisfactory answer sheet was gradually drawn up.

……

The competition began on time the next day, presided over by the obese mayor of Yosuga City.

The fashion convention officially opened after a brief speech.

After a series of contestants took turns on stage, it was soon Xiaogang and Xiaozhi's turn.

With the help of their cute outfits and lucky eggs, both of them achieved impressive scores.

Before Hikari, the famous young lady of Yosuga City took to the stage with her dream monster.

Both women, dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked onto the stage amidst cheers and jubilation. Judging from the surrounding flags and shouts, the woman in front of them was very popular.

She even coordinated with the dream demon to drag her skirt, showcasing a luxurious style.

Despite the loud cheers, Ash was not satisfied.

"Hello, Dawn, it's your turn!" Ash encouraged the girl next to him.

"Don't worry, with your guidance, Xiaozhi, the decision will be fine!" Xiaoguang replied confidently.

"Then good luck!"

Under the mayor's broadcast, Xiao Guang and Juan Juan Er appeared on stage.

A simple white dress catches the eye, and a pale yellow bow serves as an embellishment, highlighting Xiaoguang's long blue hair hanging down her back.

"This outfit is really nice!"

"Pica~"

Ash and Pikachu then shared their thoughts.

On stage, Juanjuan Er, also dressed in a white dress, simply used freezing light to create icebergs that formed a ski resort.

Skating like on a slide, she resembled a graceful snow sprite, her unique performance immediately captivating the audience.

"No wonder he's the winner of the Mikkuri Cup!" Paris exclaimed in admiration. Even her usually demanding teacher was rarely satisfied with Hikaru's performance on stage.

After the fashion show ends, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Hikari, Satoshi, Brock, and Miss will all make it to the finals.

"The champions of this competition are Miss Xiaoguang and the duo Juanjuan'er!"

"Why?" the young lady roared immediately. "Why am I worse than her?"

"Because all you see are gorgeous costumes, Pokémon are just a prop to make you look good!" Baris's teacher bluntly commented.

Despite the young lady's final resentment, at the awards ceremony, Paris placed a silver crown on Hikaru's head as a reward for winning the championship.

"No wonder this place is called the 'Hall of Light'!" Ash muttered to himself as he looked at Dawn on the stage.

At this moment, Xiao Guang, wearing a silver crown and a pure white dress, looked as beautiful as a real princess!

Chapter 166 The Evolution of Scorpion, The Scorpion King Appears

Because Melissa, the Gym Leader, was not at the Gym, Ash and his friends had to leave Eden City after attending the Fashion Show and head to their next destination—Mt. Coronet.

Along the way, Ash encountered many trainers who were quite strong.

Just like the Rhyperior sent by a trainer who is not young, it is obviously a seasoned traveler.
