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

He originally wanted to stop Zapdos from wreaking havoc in the city.

Unexpectedly, Zapdos only wanted to absorb the electrical energy from the power plant to feed the Electric-type Pokémon living in the vicinity.

Zapdos' greatness needs no further explanation!

Ash is also a person with a great personality!

A mistake is a mistake, and Ash never tries to justify it.

Unlike that scoundrel who actually said something like, "I never thought about helping Ash achieve his dream!"

To make up for his mistake, Ash is going all out this time.

It poured all the aura power it could extract from its body into Zapdos.

This is so that Zapdos can recover its stamina as quickly as possible.

After exhausting himself, Ash took out Zapdos's Poké Ball and placed it in front of Zapdos.

"Our meeting might just be fate. If we meet again someday, I'll challenge you again! Let's be partners then!"

Although he was a little reluctant, Xiao Zhi said with a sense of relief.

now.

Ash lay flat on the grass, quietly enjoying the sunlight streaming down from the sky.

'Young man, when did I ever say I was leaving?'

Looking at Ash lying on the ground, and Ash's resolute demeanor.

A hint of resentment crept into Zapdos's tone.

A newlywed bride arrives at her husband's home, only to be sent back to her parents' home by her in-laws, filled with resentment.

"Goodbye...wait! You said you didn't want to leave?"

Just as Xiaozhi was about to say goodbye, having already prepared to leave, he realized he had made a decision.

But then his eyes widened suddenly.

He thought he just heard Zapdos say that he didn't want to leave.

Xiao Zhi stood up from the ground in a flash.

A hint of expectation instantly appeared in 340's previously somewhat dejected eyes.

Fortunately, things did not turn out as Ash had predicted.

The moment he stood up.

Zapdos had already picked up its Poké Ball and held it up in front of Ash.

"Pica~"

Pikachu was very pleased with Zapdos's actions; this little brother is very sensible!

Ash reached out and took the Poké Ball from Zapdos's beak.

Then, Zapdos gently touched the switch on the Poké Ball with its beak.

The next second, Zapdos turned into a white light and was captured by the Poké Ball.

from now on.

Ash and Zapdos' bond was officially formed then.

[Dalmatian: To be honest, Ash's friendliness is really exaggerated. Even a legendary Pokémon like Zapdos is willing to follow Ash, even when Ash wanted to release it.]

[McClure: Don't you even remember the look in Zapdos's eyes when Ash poured all his Aura into it? It was practically dripping with saccharine energy!]

[Aya: Stop! That's not how you use Aura! Ash, that's heresy!]

[Lance: Speaking of which, Ash's capture of Zapdos this time was quite a feat, wasn't it? After all, no one has ever recounted their experience of capturing a legendary Pokémon.]

[Lorelei: Even if you know the method, so what? Do you think an ordinary person's strength can compare to Ash's Pikachu or Red's? If you can't reach that level, how can you possibly subdue a god?]

[Shinjiro: That's true. Most people don't even have the chance to see a legendary Pokémon, let alone catch one. Besides, Ash didn't just conquer them with his strength; what truly made Zapdos accept Ash was his final words.]

[Cattleya: Seriously, it feels like Ash is some kind of succubus. All sorts of gods are always captivated by him. Even Cynthia is one of them~]

[Cynthia: ?]

[Cadelia: Waaah~ I was wrong, be gentle~]

?

Something's not right with you guys!

……

Kanto, backyard of Oki's Research Lab.

Watching the scene playing on the light screen.

Crimson felt this scene was very familiar.

Yes, didn't he also subdue the three legendary birds?

No wonder it looked so familiar.

Looking back now, I realize that his younger brother's behavior, whether intentional or unintentional, bears his shadow.

From Pikachu and Charizard to the current Zapdos.

That won't do.

You can't reach that position if you can't forge your own path.

It seems he should give Xiaozhi some pointers when he has time, so he can avoid some detours.

perhaps.

This will significantly shorten the time it takes for Xiaozhi to reach the top (aiag).

Five years?

No, a year is enough time for Red to train Ash into a true top-tier fighter.

It's time to let the world feel the oppressive power of crimson once again!

……

In the picture—

Ash gripped the Poké Ball tightly.

Seeing this, Pikachu, perched on the shoulder, helplessly raised its hand.

It was already used to releasing animals.

To some extent, Ash has already chosen to release Butterfree and Primeape into the wild.

(Of course, Pidgeot is an exception; it's been completely forgotten, since it's right on our doorstep.)

However, it is very rare to see someone refuse to release the animals.

Pikachu vaguely remembers that the last one that refused to be released was itself!

From this perspective, Zapdos really does seem like a suitable little brother.

They belong to the same electrical system and have similar experiences.

Pikachu's affection for Zapdos increased rapidly.

After capturing Zapdos, Ash called Professor Sakuragi and then returned to Pallet Town.

The backyard of Sakuragi Research Institute is quite comfortable.

However, the space is not big enough.

It's impossible to let Zapdos move freely.

But the backyard of Oak's lab is a different story.

Those are two or three hilltops in total.

There's more than enough room to place a Zapdos.

Moreover, there was already a Zapdos that Red had caught in Oak's lab.

That way, they can get to get along.

Upon returning to Pallet Town, Ash immediately headed to Professor Oak's lab.

After telling Professor Oak about his experience, Ash took out the Poké Ball containing Zapdos.

Ash asked to keep Zapdos in his backyard.

Professor Oak readily agreed without hesitation.

A single Zapdos can provide a great deal of research value, but if two are together, then data on related populations can be studied.

This is also of great value to him as a PhD.

Talk about it.

The backyard of Oak's laboratory is a gathering place for masters, with both the hidden dragon and the phoenix among them.
