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

[Cadelia: Sweet!]

[Cynthia: I didn't mean to separate Pikachu from you. I meant that if Pikachu is wronged, it can come to me, and I'll help it teach the person who wronged it a lesson.]

What's with this overflowing boyfriend charm?!

Isn't this saying directed at Ash? If you ever dare to upset Pikachu, I'll help Pikachu teach you a lesson!

That’s not right!

Cynthia used to be very attentive to Ash.

and many more!

Could it be that Cynthia has taken a liking to Pikachu?

hiss~

As expected of the champion, he captured Ash's heart in an instant!

……

In the picture—

The journey was exceptionally arduous, even though the destination was right in front of us.

Pikachu didn't hesitate to return to Vermilion City to find Ash.

Everything that happened today made Pikachu realize one thing.

What exactly is Ash's place in its heart?

It is an existence that no one can replace.

Ash and Pikachu are the perfect match!

How worried Xiaozhi must be about his selfish decision to run away from home.

At this moment, Mr. Mime was ready to turn around and walk the same path again.

at this time.

The door, bathed in dim yellow light, was pushed open from the inside.

"Pikachu, is that you back?"

Hear this familiar voice.

Pikachu raised its head and looked at the figures standing at the gate.

And in it.

The person at the very front was extremely familiar to it; it was someone it could easily spot in a crowd.

Mr. Mime hugged the Pikachu on his back and handed it to Ash.

At the same time, Mr. Mime gently patted Ash on the shoulder.

"Pikachu, I'm so sorry! I didn't notice how you felt! It was my fault!"

“The moment I found out you were missing, I called my mom, and she gave me a good scolding! She said we are family, and I shouldn’t have been so selfish and disrespectful of your feelings.”

"Really! Really! I'm so sorry!"

"I swear, I'll never do it again, Pikachu, please forgive me?"

Tears streamed down Xiao Zhi's face.

Pikachu stuck out its tongue and licked away Ash's tears.

Hanako, who was behind Ash, also wiped away tears from the corners of her eyes.

But before Hanako could even step forward to comfort Ash and Pikachu...

Mr. Mime tugged at Hanako's hand.

Hanako was confused, and the Mr. Mime could only gesture with his hands and feet.

"Danger? What danger?"

Just as Hanako was wondering...

Pikachu, who was still feeling down, suddenly sharpened its eyes!

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling golden bolt of lightning illuminated the entire town.

Such a massive current even burned out the streetlights throughout the entire town.

The most powerful 100,000 volts—that's how Pikachu chose to forgive Ash.

After enduring 100,000 volts, we're back to being friends!

This is Pikachu's revenge!

[Tie Xuan: I didn't expect Xiao Zhi's (good Zhao) Pikachu to be so cunning.]

[Ah Liu: This feeling of retaliation feels so familiar; I have a sense of déjà vu.]

[Da Ye: Tch, after following the boss for so long, you still don't understand her style? This is definitely her most familiar retaliatory tactic.]

[Wu Song: Hey, Da Ye, when are you going to shut your mouth? You'll die from it one day.]

[Da Ye: Is there a problem? Am I not telling the truth? Big Sister is so cunning!]

Every time I anger the boss, she challenges me to a match, claiming I want to challenge for the championship. Do you think I want to? I'm being forced!

I get beaten up almost every time we battle, which has made my Infernape instinctively want to cover its face whenever it sees the boss's Garchomp! It's almost giving me PTSD!

[Denji: You'd better think about how you're going to explain this to your Infernape.]

[Cynthia: I heard someone's interested in my championship title. Big Leaf, I'll be waiting for you at the Lily of the Valley venue. Make sure you're on time!]

[Da Ye: !!!]

[Denji: Sigh, I can only mourn for you for one second, that's not enough! You brought this on yourself!]

[Cynthia: If anyone is interested in my championship title, feel free to challenge me to a match. I happen to be in Sinnoh right now. Just so you know, this isn't directed at Cynthia.]

Dare to say I'm similar to Pikachu?

If we're talking about appearance, then so be it.

Pikachu is indeed just as cute as I am.

But how dare you say that Pikachu is as cunning as I am!

How could she, as the Sinnoh Champion, tolerate this!

This time I've caught them red-handed, so I'm sure I'll get a lot of good results!

……

In the picture—

Under Pikachu's loving 100,000 volts.

Ash, his face covered in soot, finally reconciled with Pikachu.

Furthermore, Ash promised that he would never neglect Pikachu again, whether in training or battles!

Only then did Pikachu's face show a smile.

This is right.

Only Ash with Pikachu is the Ash we all know and love.

...

Chapter 119 Gible Wants to Evolve! Ash's Garchomp!

Ash and Pikachu reconcile after Pikachu delivers a powerful 100,000-volt attack of love.

During this time, Ash also realized that he had been too hasty in training Riolu and the others.

While high-intensity battles can help improve skills, they can also be counterproductive.

Over time, this will inevitably harm the growth of Riolu and the others.

Thanks to Pikachu's reminder, Ash noticed this.

And so, Ash's life returned to a harmonious routine.

some days ago.

Ash once challenged Bea, the Fighting Gym Leader from Galar, at the home of a karate master in Saffron City.

At that time, Ash sent out Farfetch'd and Riolu, who had just finished training.

However, Farfetch'd lost to Bea's wrestling eagle.

Riolu, on the other hand, lost to Octopod Samurai.

Because of this incident, Ash's ranking on the Great Ball dropped to 950.

It's because of this incident.

That's what made Ash stop training Riolu.

During that period, Riolu's training was mostly the same type as Octopod Samurai's.
