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

[Ash: I'm sorry.]

[Cynthia: Don't blame yourself. If you feel indebted, make amends through your actions. After all, this happened in the future and has nothing to do with you now.]

Ash: Thank you, Cynthia. I promise I'll treat every Pokémon with the utmost care from now on!

Kanto, backyard of Oki's Research Lab.

Looking at the Pokémon that were always active in the backyard.

Xiao Zhi smiled from the bottom of his heart.

At the same time, he secretly made a vow in his heart.

We will definitely take their needs seriously!

We will absolutely not let the Infernape incident happen again!

……

In the picture—

Watching Ash suddenly run away.

Xiao Mao sighed.

He then said to Cynthia beside him, "I'm sorry for the poor hospitality."

He then turned to chase after the figure that was almost disappearing from sight.

"You reckless fool, do you even know where the Moltres is?!"

While chasing, Gary tried to persuade Ash, who was directly in front of him, to slow down.

After all, there are many creatures in Pallet Town that can be called monsters, but Ash is the only one who can be called a humanoid Pokémon.

This speed is comparable to high-speed movement.

He really can't catch up!

It's always been like this; whenever we go out to play, he runs away incredibly fast, and he can never find us!

Xiao Mao harbored deep resentment about this.

That's why Xiao Mao developed an iron lung from a young age.

The sound was successfully transmitted to Ash's ears.

When he saw Ash stop walking.

Gary finally ran up to Ash, panting.

"Hey, can this guy please not be so reckless next time? You could at least wait for me!"

"Shigeru, do you know where Moltres is?"

Ash asked anxiously, as this concerned Infernape's safety.

Xiao Zhi couldn't help but worry.

"Fine, just come with me."

Shigeru naturally knew the location of Moltres, as it was related to the assessment, and he had investigated it in advance.

But then I thought about Ash's comprehension ability.

Xiao Mao decided to personally take him to the destination.

If Ash gets lost again, that would be a real problem.

He wasn't worried about Ash at all!

[Karuno: Gary seems sharp-tongued, but is he actually kind-hearted?]

[Yu Long Ferry: Cold on the outside but warm on the inside, I get it!]

[Xiao Gang: That's true. Although Xiao Mao and Xiao Zhi always fight whenever they meet, they get along very well.]

[Xiaoxia: You call it a good relationship if you fight every time you meet? Then there's no such thing as a bad relationship.]

[Shiba: It's just a love-hate relationship, like Lorelei and Wataru's.]

Yulongdu: Please don't drag me into this, thank you!

Especially don't associate me with Kona!

I don't like women who are almost forty!

……

In the picture—

Moltres is located near Pallet Town.

However, the actual distance also requires traversing mountains and rivers.

The two traversed an entire forest and climbed the highest peak within it.

Only then did we see the valley where the flamingo lived.

just.

Before they could even get close to the valley.

Countless flames have already erupted in the valley.

Interspersed with the calls of Moltres and the roars of Infernape.

Xiao Zhi's eyes suddenly became very serious.

It seems they were a little late.

Moltres and Infernape have already clashed!

"Xiao Zhi, don't be impulsive. Let's go together."

But just as Shigeru turned to look at Satoshi...

But then he discovered that Ash had already disappeared from his side.

But then I looked up.

Ash's figure appeared in the very center of the valley.

He meows!

Tired, destroy it, quickly!

Xiao Mao was speechless. He had emphasized so many times along the way not to be impulsive, why wouldn't he listen?

That's a Moltres! It's one of the legendary three mythical birds!

Even without divine authority, it's not something an ordinary Pokémon can defeat.

of course.

He had seen the legendary birds before.

Red Brother once successfully collected all three legendary birds.

He had also witnessed the power of the Three Holy Birds firsthand.

This Moltres is incredibly powerful!

At first, Shigeru thought it was the firebird with divine powers from the Orange Islands.

But the Orange Islands remained peaceful, proving his guess wrong.

And now, seeing Ash's reckless behavior...

Xiao Mao suddenly realized something was wrong!

This looks like something bad is about to happen!

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow.

now.

In the Flamebird Valley.

A Pokémon with raging flames burning on its head and white fur all over its body stood on the earth.

Its limbs are long, but its body is not upright.

Instead, he appeared somewhat hunched over.

Directly in front of it was a large golden bird engulfed in flames.

They were the very people Ash had come to find.

Infernape and Moltres.

At this point, neither of them was aware of the intruder's arrival.

They are still attacking each other.

Infernape spews forth a torrent of flames whenever it opens its mouth.

Crimson flames spiraled towards the firebird in the sky.
