Pokémon: Ash the New Generation, Starting from Sinnoh

The group waved goodbye to the elf with deep affection.

Although they had only spent a short time together, they had already gotten used to this quirky little hedgehog.

"May we meet again someday!"

Looking at the Gracidian Flower in his hand, Ash silently prayed.

……

That night, the three of them went to their pre-booked Pokémon Center dormitory to rest and prepare for their trip the next day.

But before entering the room, Ash called out to Brock and Dawn and handed Brock a bouquet of Gracidian flowers.

"Ash, what's this?" X2

Not only was Xiaogang puzzled, but Xiaoguang was even more baffled.

"Gracidia represents gratitude, and I want to use this flower to express my gratitude to Brock for taking care of me over the years!" Ash explained, rubbing his nose, somewhat embarrassed.

But deep down, he really did have this idea.

After all, countless years have passed since the Kanto region was transformed into Sinnoh.

"I see, then I'll accept it!" Xiao Gang said with relief, reminiscing about his past trip.

"What about me?" Xiao Guang crossed his arms, turned his head away, and said with a dissatisfied tone.

Although she knew that Ash gave Brock the gift as a token of gratitude over the years, for some reason, she suddenly wanted a gift herself.

"Of course, everyone who sees it gets a share!" Seeing Hikari pouting, Ash smiled slightly and then magically produced another share and handed it to the girl.

"This is to thank us for our dream-like encounter!"

"……Thanks!"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Guang actually received the flower. He was stunned at first, then blushed and accepted it.

"Alright, now that we've received the gifts, it's time to get ready for bed!"

Xiao Gang smiled as he looked at the two of them, but considering the time, he offered a timely reminder.

The three of them then took their places, took the flowers, and returned to their rooms to rest.

"Oh right, Pikachu, this is yours!"

While sleeping, Ash conjured up a Gracidian Flower and handed it to his first partner.

"Pikachu~ (Ash, I have one too?)"

Pikachu, who had just lain down, suddenly jumped up and pointed at itself in surprise.

"Of course, we're teammates!" Ash replied matter-of-factly.

"Pica~"

Pikachu was overjoyed, jumped onto Ash's shoulder, and nuzzled him.

Pikachu~

Yes, a companion forever.

Chapter 194 Arrival in Yosuga City, Ah-Xun's Challenge

After leaving Mount Tianguan, the three of them were not far from Yuanzhi City.

They had only been traveling for two days when they arrived in Yosuga City. This was the third time that Ash and his friends had come to this city.

"I can finally challenge the gym this time!" Ash couldn't help but exclaim with excitement at the thought of finally getting the badge.

"Pica~"

Xiao Guang and Xiao Gang watched the behavior of the person and the pet, their faces showing smiles.

After all, the two could understand Ash. The gym was right there, but the gym leader had been nowhere to be seen time and time again. Anyone would get annoyed.

"Let's go, let's go to the Pokémon Center to rest!" Ash said, turning around.

Although he wanted to challenge the gym right now, reason told him that he should go to the Pokémon Center first.

After all, Charizard and Pidgeot are still with me, so I need to switch to the right Pokémon before I can take on the challenge.

"Okay!" X2

The two echoed each other and walked side by side with Ash toward the Pokémon Center.

"boom!"

However, an unexpected incident occurred on their way forward: a blond boy suddenly appeared and bumped into Ash's spot.

"Ok!"

With quick reflexes, Ash rushed towards Dawn's location, narrowly avoiding being bumped into.

However, Xiao Gang wasn't so lucky!

He took a solid hit from the blond kid.

"Brock, are you alright?" Seeing Brock fall to the ground, kind-hearted Dawn couldn't help but ask, and then she and Ash went over to help Brock up.

"It's nothing, it's not a big problem!" Xiao Gang shook his head, indicating that he was fine.

"No, this is a big problem!" Ash thought to himself as he saw the familiar faces.

As if to verify Xiao Zhi's idea, the boy stood up from the ground, angrily pointed at his watch and shouted.

"It hurts so much! Pay the fine!" the blond boy yelled. "10, 9, 8..."

And the countdown began while the three of them were completely bewildered.

"As expected..." Ash covered his forehead.

As expected, the rather comical boy in front of me is Ah Xun from the story, a passionate young man.

"What?" Xiao Guang looked puzzled, not understanding what was going on.

"Wait a minute, I've changed my mind!"

Just as the countdown was about to finish, Ash noticed Ash with Pikachu, his face lit up with joy, and he spoke again.

"I remember you, you're the guy who defeated Shinji in the tag team tournament! I've changed my mind, come and fight me! Otherwise, you'll continue to be fined!"

Ignoring the looks that Xiaozhi and his friends were giving Ruizhi, the other party continued the countdown on their own.

"10, 9, 8, 7..."

"Okay, I agree!"

Seeing Hikari's surprised expression, Ash agreed to her request.

Although the other person had a very eccentric personality, he didn't care.

He never refuses a challenge, as long as it's a battle.

So, everyone rushed to the Pokémon Center and prepared for a Pokémon battle at a nearby battle arena.

"The rules of the game are three-on-three..." Xiao Gang stood in the referee area as the two read out the rules of the game.

Still a bit confused, Hikari stood by watching the battle, but still cheered for Ash.

"Go, Laurel Leaf!"

Ash sent out Bayleaf, who had been training him for a long time.

"Beli~"

The little guy was just too clingy; he even ran to his side and acted spoiled when the game started.

Ash could only laugh and cry as he touched Bayleek, who then ran back to the field satisfied and assumed a battle stance.

The Pokémon Ash sent out was Sinnoh's starter bird, Staraptor, which has a huge advantage against the Grass-type Bayleef.

"Muk Eagle, Swallow Return!"

The dominant Axen's side launched the first attack. The Mk Eagle approached Laurel Leaf with lightning speed, its speed was incredibly fast, and the opponent, being less agile, had no way to avoid it.

"touch~"

The next second, the Hawk slammed into Laurel Leaf with a thud.

"Got it!" Ah Xun happily pumped his fist, confident of victory, and shouted again, "Muk Eagle, one more Swallow Return!"

"Use the laurel leaf to grab it with the vine whip, then strike with a slap!"

To Ah Xun's astonishment, he was unharmed after consuming a bay leaf from a Swallow Return attack.

"It's a reflective wall!"

Only then did Ah Xun notice the golden energy shield on Laurel Leaf's body.

Ash must have realized he couldn't avoid the attack, so he simply took it head-on, turning the tables and regaining control of the offensive.

"Ah, that's too cunning! I'll be fined!" Ah Xun shouted angrily, stamping his foot after finally understanding the situation.

But that couldn't stop the failure.

It could only watch helplessly as Laurel Leaf seized the Hawk, pinned it to the ground, repeatedly slammed it down, and then ingested a deadly poison, ultimately rendering it unable to fight.
