Pokémon: The Zen Trainer

Vigus looked on curiously, lost in thought.

"My secret?"

Bian Xiang smiled slightly.

He pointed to his own shadow.

"This is my secret."

Vigus looked up at Bianxiang's shadow, curiously observing him.

Vigus then noticed that Bian Xiang's shadow seemed to be a size larger than that of an average person.

"This is??"

He was about to speak when he thought about it.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of a familiar red-haired person and subconsciously frowned.

Really? That can't be a coincidence, can it?

A familiar system notification came to my ears.

A person with a deep-seated obsession has been discovered!

By relieving this person's obsession, you gain 5000 points of Buddhahood.

So it really is this guy?

Yin strolled along the streets of the cypress town.

Suddenly he felt a strange gaze upon him.

This sense of déjà vu is unmistakable!

Ash!

Yin immediately raised her head and looked in the direction she felt, meeting Bian Xiang's gaze.

His fighting spirit surged up instantly. He put aside investigating Team Rocket for now; all he wanted was a good fight!

What is your secret?

Vigus looked on curiously, lost in thought.

"My secret...you'll find out soon enough."

Bian Xiang looked at Yin across from him, saw the fighting spirit in Yin's eyes, and sighed.

Seeing the look in Yin's eyes, I knew he wanted to have a fight, but in this place...

Looking at the crowd around him, he no longer wanted to fight in the street; he didn't want to be invited for questioning by the police again.

So he turned around and headed towards Chonglan School.

Yin smiled as she looked at Bian's expression as he tried to leave.

Without hesitation, he followed.

.....

Bian Xiang brought Vigus to the arena.

"Why did you bring me here?"

"Didn't you want to know my secret?"

"I am..."

"Ash!"

"I never expected to run into you here."

Yin walked onto the public arena and looked around, lost in thought.

"Xiaozhi?"

"He called you Xiaozhi?"

"En~"

Bian Xiang looked at Vigus and nodded.

"The one you encountered in the game is me; that Gastly is my Pokémon!"

"You're lying! Your spirit is Snow Child! You're saying this on purpose because you hate me, aren't you?"

He didn't speak, but simply tapped his own shadow lightly with his foot.

Bianxiang's shadow suddenly twisted.

"Nana!!"

Gardevoir instinctively stepped in front of Vigus to shield her.

There's something dangerous lurking in his shadow! Gardevoir finally sensed it after evolving!

When I was at the welfare home, I thought it was just my imagination!

Vigus stared in shock as she thought about what was happening, her mind going completely blank.

Bian Xiang looked up at Yin.

"Why are you still here?"

If things had progressed according to Bian Xiang's memory, Yin should have already passed through Manjin City by now.

The storyline of the Hinoki Town Rockets cutting off their tail had already happened a month earlier.

I wanted to confirm that the scene of cutting off the tail had indeed happened!

I've seen the news, so why did Yin come here?

"Why am I here?"

Silver smiled.

"Beat me and I'll tell you!"

"Come out, Gastly!"

"Hiss!!"

A Gastly with a deep purple color appeared on the arena.

"Come on, let me see just how good you really are now."

"Don't let me down, Ash!"

He pointed to the ground while thinking.

As I thought about it, the shadow began to distort violently.

A huge claw emerged from Bianxiang's shadow.

Then the other paw.

A huge blue Gastly emerged from the shadows of the side.

"Chirp~"

Looking at the blue Gastly in front of her, Vigus finally realized that it was Ash.

It's the one I encountered in the game.

Xiao Zhi! ? While thinking! ?

Looking at the boy in front of her, Vigus was stunned. At this moment, she suddenly didn't know what to do.

Should I go up and beat him up? Or should I turn around and leave? What should I do?

Bian Xiang turned to look at Vigus and nodded apologetically.

Then he looked up at the silver.

"Ghostly should finish this quickly."

"Chirp."

Gastly waved its hand.

Yin listened to Bianxiang's words and instead of being annoyed, she laughed.

"You're still as confident as you were back then."

"But you have to understand that I'm not the same person I was back then!"

"Haunter Shadow Claw!!"

"Hiss!!"

The silver Gastly claws, wreathed in black light, reached out to grab the Gastly that was on the side.

"So fast!!"

Vigus looked at the silver Gastly with some surprise.

It's incredibly fast! Far exceeding the speed of a typical Gastly.
