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

[Cynthia: I remember there's a legend in Unova about a True Hero and an Ideal Hero. Judging from what he just did, Ash is very likely one of those two heroes.]

Professor Birch: Ash really is a hero collector.

[Adeke: Not sure, let me check it again!]

But no matter how he sees it.

Those two figures were clearly the legendary Black and White Dragons.

The Dragon of Ideals and Reality!

So, Ash's journey in the Unova region might not be as simple as they imagined!

Adek touched his stubble.

If it follows the development of Galar...

Ash may have saved the Unova region by using the power of Laceram and Zekrom.

0 ·······Requesting flowers 0 ······

Thinking about it that way, it seems very likely!

"Could Ash really be a walking hero?!"

(Luckily, he's a walking hero; if it were some unknown elementary school student, he'd be a walking Grim Reaper!)

……

In the picture—

Boarding a plane bound for Kanto.

Ash returned to Vermilion City once again.

Breathing the long-lost fresh air.

Xiao Zhi stretched comfortably.

"Kanto is still the most comfortable place! Don't you agree, Pikachu!"

"Pika pika!"

Regarding what Xiaozhi said.

Pikachu nodded in complete agreement!

At least here, you won't encounter anything strange!

After all, in Kanto, Ash was protected by Ho-Oh and Lugia.

It's that invincible state where even if you die, someone will resurrect you!

Return to Sakuragi Research Institute.

Xiao Zhi was about to go and share his experiences with Xiao Chun.

Who knew that Ash would suddenly leave without saying goodbye?

Xiaochun surprisingly chose to take a temporary trip.

This left Xiao Zhi feeling somewhat uneasy.

Unable to find anyone to share with, Xiao Zhi could only keep those words to himself.

I really have to get this off my chest!

After asking "When will Xiaochun come back?", Dr. Sakuragi shook his head helplessly.

He was also unsure how long Xiaochun's trip would take.

However, according to her, Xiaochun is preparing to challenge the Quartz Conference this time.

Upon hearing this.

Xiao Zhi was completely deflated.

After all, it took him almost half a year to prepare for the Quartz Conference. (Episode 75)

It seems that Xiaochun won't be able to come back for a while.

But let's count the days.

Xiaochun's return should coincide with the start of this year's World Championship Masters Tournament.

... ..... 0

I was able to participate in the Masters Tournament.

Xiao Zhi's anxiety subsided.

I spent the whole day on a plane.

Xiao Zhi was exhausted. He went back to his room and lay down to sleep.

The next day.

As the first rays of morning sunlight stream into the room.

Ash, trying to avoid the sunlight, turned around and ended up landing right on top of Pikachu.

Wait a moment.

"Pikachu!"

Lightning flashed everywhere!

"Ugh! Pikachu, stop waking me up like that!"

Xiao Zhi, feeling a tingling sensation from the electric shock, collapsed weakly to the ground.

As for Pikachu, it rubbed its eyes in confusion.

"Pikapi!"

Is there any possibility that you almost crushed me to death just now?

This is just my instinctive protective mechanism!

Faced with Pikachu's reasoned argument.

Xiao Zhi simply pretended not to understand.

"Oh dear, time to get up!"

As he spoke, Xiao Zhi stood up, shook off the black ash from his clothes, grabbed his clothes, and headed towards the bathroom.

See this scene.

Pikachu's cheeks were puffed up in a huff.

There's nothing we can do; after all, this is our own trainer.

Come to the bathroom.

The thoughtful Gengar butler had already prepared toiletries for Ash.

After a quick wash and brushing my teeth.

Ash changed into his usual clothes.

Come downstairs.

As usual, Ash finished his breakfast and went to the backyard to give his Pokémon special training.

After all, the battle with Iris not only helped Ash advance to the Ultra Ball level.

This also served as a reminder to Ash that his next opponent might not be so easy.

We must give it our all!

Time flies.

Until the afternoon.

Xiao Zhi finally got a break from his busy schedule!

Just as Ash was about to take a break.

But then Rotom's phone rang in his pocket.

"Beep beep, Lotto, you have an email from Professor Oak."

The sudden sound startled Ash.

Xiao Zhi, who had just sat down, quickly took out his phone.

Sure enough, a message was displayed on the phone.

"Ash, I'm Professor Oak. Would you be interested in participating in Project Mew?"

The short line of text instantly snapped Xiaozhi out of his daze, and his previous fatigue vanished completely.

"The Dream Project! Could it be a project to find the Dream?!"

"That's awesome! I haven't seen Dream in so long, I've missed it!"

Excited, Ash looked around and immediately hugged Pikachu next to him.
