Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

then.

Then they all left, leaving Xia Yan at Nanami's doorstep.

"How about... I try it for you?" Cynthia asked hesitantly before leaving.

However, after thinking about it, Xia Yan still refused.

"No, I'll go first. If I can't do it, then you can go."

"it is good."

Cynthia left too, leaving only Xia Yan behind.

Take a deep breath.

After politely knocking on the door, I placed my hand on the doorknob and used my superpower slightly, and the locked door opened naturally.

Using superpowers to enter a girl's room?

The thought of it makes me a little excited.

I shook my head, banishing that unrealistic thought.

Xia Yan also brought Pokkiku with him.

With Togekiss's lively nature, cheerful personality, and status as a lucky fairy, it should be able to play a role.

Moreover, Nanami got along best with Natsuhiko's Pokémon during this period.

After entering.

I saw Nanami huddled in the corner of the balcony, her head buried in her knees.

Xia Yan sighed silently.

Just like Gary and Professor Oak both thought, Nanami really wasn't suited to be a Trainer.

However, just as Xia Yan walked in, and was about to say something to comfort him...

But then I heard...

The sound of steady breathing, with a touch of cute little snoring.

Xia Yan and Pokki exchanged a strange look.

They were anxiously waiting outside, while the person involved remained calmly inside...

Are you asleep?

Chapter 129 I Just Like Elves

"Well......"

Nanami seemed to sense someone approaching, and slowly raised her head, opening her blurry eyes.

When I saw the figure, I was startled and jumped in fright.

Xia Yan's bent-over back and outstretched hand froze in place.

Thankfully, Nanami didn't scream. After seeing what Xia Yan looked like, she breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Xia Yan?"

"Uh... um."

"How did you get in? Didn't I lock the door?" Nanami asked, somewhat puzzled.

This is a rather awkward problem.

Xia Yan touched his nose, unsure how to answer.

I could only change the subject, "They said...you withdrew?"

Upon hearing this, Nanami nodded somewhat dejectedly and responded in a barely audible voice.

"Ah."

Xia Yan sighed silently, sat down on the ground next to Nanami, and hugged Pokkigu in his arms.

He didn't ask why, because it was pointless.

After a long silence, Nanami suddenly asked, "Xia Yan, what is your goal?"

"Target?"

"Hmm." Nanami nodded, looking at the beautiful sunset outside the window, and said, as if talking to herself, "I don't know where my goal is."

"I thought I would pursue a career in Pokémon research, but after reading and reviewing a large number of papers, I realized that what I actually enjoyed was the results, not the process. Later, I thought I might be better suited to be a trainer, so I participated in this competition with my Pokémon."

But just now, I suddenly realized that being a trainer isn't what I want either, so I'm a little lost.

Is it a goal?

Xia Yan gently patted Tokigu's head, looked up at the sunset, and slowly smiled.

"To be honest, I don't really know what my goal is. I only know that at the beginning, I just wanted to live a life where I could have enough to eat and wear, and become a trainer who, while not very strong, could protect myself and my Pokémon."

Later, I gradually realized that I actually preferred the days I spent with the elves, growing stronger together, working hard together, laughing together, and feeling down together.

I want to take them to see the world and create memories they won't regret when they're old.

perhaps......

I just like elves.

These were words Xia Yan had never said to anyone before, but they were his true feelings from the bottom of his heart.

Target?

Let's take a step by step.

For someone like him who climbed up from the bottom, goals are too distant; too high and it seems unrealistic, too low and it seems unambitious.

Living well in the present moment is the most important thing.

Of course, who doesn't have a little bit of ambition?

Nanami stared blankly at Xia Yan as he slowly began to tell his story. She felt that Xia Yan must be a person with a lot of stories to tell.

Similar to her was the Pokkigu in Xia Yan's arms.

His small eyes blinked as he looked at Xia Yan.

This was also the first time Pokkigu had heard Natsuhiko say these words, and its feelings were naturally much deeper than Nanami's.

“Chakoi…” Pokkigu murmured.

A hint of confusion appeared on his face.

Xia Yan's goal, Nanami's goal, then what is Tokkiku's goal?

Do you sleep until you naturally wake up every day?

Is there an endless supply of ice cream every day?

Do they play pranks and joke around with other elves every day?

No.

Pokkiku shook his head instinctively.

Those days were comfortable and peaceful, but they weren't what it truly wanted.

What it wants...

Looking up again, she saw Xia Yan's resolute jawline from her chest, a familiar feature that had become a habit, an indispensable part of her life.

Pokkiku's gaze gradually hardened.

Its goal.

It's Xia Yan.

Just like Xia Yan said, he might just like elves.

Actually, it's just...

She just likes Xia Yan.

Having figured this out, Pokkigu gently rested his head on Xia Yan's chest.

As a happy spirit, it felt very happy at this moment.

This is enough.

Suddenly, a faint halo appeared on Pokjigu's body, and its body temperature gradually rose.

Xia Yan noticed Pokkigu's unusual behavior immediately.

His expression changed slightly.

After saying something to Nanami, he got up and hurriedly left.

"How will you know what you truly like if you don't try? So don't hesitate, use your heart to feel what you want."

Watching Xia Yan's departing figure, Nanami murmured, "I have never felt such a high degree of compatibility between a Pokémon and its trainer before, and just now, that was... an aura of happiness so strong it was visible to the naked eye?"

Xia Yan ran out of the room and headed straight for the villa's entrance, unaware that Du and the others emerged from around the corner after he left.

"What's wrong with Xia Yan?" Du couldn't help but ask.

Everyone looked completely bewildered.

“Chocolate…”

Only Togepi, nestled in Cynthia's arms, looked utterly shocked.

As a fellow happiness spirit, it could clearly sense the changes in Togekiss.

The overwhelming feeling of happiness almost made it choke with sweetness.

Cynthia glanced at Togepi in her arms, then at Xia Yan who had run out of the villa area. Her almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly, as if she had realized something.
