Pokémon: A Roundup of Ash's Eight Masters' Peak Battles!

Cynthia frowned in thought, her arms crossed over her chest.

He exuded an aura that kept strangers at bay.

Xiaochun had already snapped out of her lovestruck state, while Xiaozhi, who was walking in front, remained oblivious.

But Xiaochun had already noticed the low pressure around her.

She cautiously turned her head to look at Cynthia beside her.

Her already cold and beautiful face became even colder.

Who... made Cynthia unhappy, Champion?

Xiaochun was a little nervous; everything had been fine just a moment ago.

however.

The truth is

Cynthia: I wonder if the cafe is closed at this hour. I haven't had my hands on the specialty cream puffs from Miyamon City yet!

"Eh~ Is Miss Cynthia unhappy?"

At this moment, Ash, who had been at the very front, stopped and turned to look at Cynthia behind him, asking her a question.

But even so.

Cynthia still maintained her aloof demeanor.

Until half a minute later.

"Shōshī, let's go get some cream puffs!"

Seemingly having made up her mind, Cynthia pointed to a coffee shop that was still lit up not far away.

[Cynthia: Are the cream puffs in Palace City really that delicious?]

[Sonia: It's so delicious! I always pack a big box to take home!]

[Lusamine: No! How can we only think about eating right now? We need to take Ash out for some special training! Preferably something with physical contact!]

[Lillie: I'm so sorry everyone, my mom has caused you all so much trouble!]

[Cattleya: Damn it, I'm clearly the one who's a fan of Cynthia and Ash!]

[Cynthia: Don't go too far! I'm still here!]

Guandu, Baiyin Town.

Ash looked at the light screen with some distress.

Miss Cynthia seems to really want to eat cream puffs.

But there are no cream puffs around here.

What to do.

Just then, Xiaozhi caught a glimpse of an ice cream stand not far away.

Sure enough, a sign was displayed above that said "Specialty Cream Puffs for Sale".

“Miss Cynthia, wait a minute!”

Before Cynthia could react, Ash quickly ran to the ice cream stand.

"What would you like, sir?" Musashi asked somewhat nervously.

With such a perfect disguise, surely no one could see through it?

Clearly, Ash didn't notice anything amiss.

After buying cream puffs at the Rockets' booth.

Ash excitedly walked up to Cynthia.

"Miss Cynthia, here's a cream puff for you."

Upon hearing the sound, Cynthia looked down at Ash, who was still somewhat green and inexperienced, and at the cream puff in Ash's hand.

"Thank you, Ash."

Oops, it's a heart-pounding feeling.

……

In the picture—

Tempted by the cream puffs, Cynthia quickly reverted to her original form.

then.

From the perspective of others, the three of them were moving towards the coffee shop at an extremely fast speed.

at last.

Just before closing time at the coffee shop.

Cynthia finally got the cream puffs she had been longing for.

The three sat outside the coffee shop, savoring their coffee and eating cream puffs.

“Indeed, coffee with cream puffs is the most delicious combination,” Cynthia said, squinting her eyes in enjoyment.

For someone with a sweet tooth, the perfect combination is bitter coffee with sweet cream puffs.

"Seriously, Champion Cynthia's expression just now scared me to death." Xiaochun patted her chest with lingering fear.

"You'll get used to it. Miss Cynthia always does this when she thinks about her favorite foods. Before, when buying ice cream, she would spend quite a bit of time choosing between two flavors."

Xiao Zhi said dismissively.

He'd seen this kind of thing many times before.

"Ash~"

Cynthia took a sip of her coffee and drawled out her words.

"Pickup!"

Pikachu immediately realized what was happening and quickly patted Ash's head with its tail.

Xiao Zhi immediately became serious!

The group came to Galar to watch the match between Dante and Chibana.

The match is now over.

Their journey has come to an end.

Ash and Haru originally planned to return to Vermilion City today.

But Cynthia called out to him.

It turns out that she had another purpose besides participating in the competition.

As is widely known, Cynthia is a mythologist.

Meanwhile, Dr. Mulan made new progress in the legend of the sword and shield hero of the Galar region.

Dr. Mulan then entrusted this project to her granddaughter, Sonia.

Cynthia was planning to visit Sonia in Miyamon City.

After all, it's common knowledge that Sonia and Dante are childhood sweethearts.

Sonia couldn't possibly miss watching Dan's match.

The way things unfolded was indeed quite coincidental.

Just as Ash and Haru were listening to Cynthia explain the story about the legend.

A tall figure with orange hair swept past them.

The person who arrived was dressed very elegantly, and her orange hair was styled into a single ponytail twirled behind her head.

The green sunglasses on his head were also particularly eye-catching.

Sonia immediately attracted Ash and his friends' attention as soon as she appeared.

Before Xiaozhi could say anything...

Sonia walked straight to Ash's table.

To Ash's and the others' astonishment, Sonia grabbed Pikachu's ear.

Then Sonia vigorously rubbed Pikachu's ears.

"So soft~ Is this the electric mouse Pikachu from the Kanto region? It's so cute!"

See this scene.

Xiaochun subconsciously moved the stool back a little.

This person seems to be a pervert!

Sonia was completely oblivious, lost in her own world.

She kept rubbing Pikachu's ears.
