I opened a restaurant in the Pokémon world.

Chapter 937 There are many ways to make money

Heath certainly didn't intend to go in and ask why the lunchboxes were being provided for free. Seven lunchboxes were nothing compared to the prime location next to the gym.

It's like in your past life, someone told you that you could open a restaurant next to the Forbidden City in Beijing, but the only requirement was that you provide seventy boxed meals to the staff of the Forbidden City every day. Would you do that business? Of course you could, and people would even fight to do it. If you went too far, they would even send pearls as boxed meals. I'm not kidding. Some people would even grit their teeth and do seven hundred. So Heath wasn't that stupid. He naturally knew what the benefits of doing it were.

The area next to the dojo is always prime real estate. Challengers, dojo apprentices, and trainers all need to eat; they're not gods who can live without food. So, opening a restaurant in this location is always profitable. However, Heath has some concerns. He doesn't really care much about his location. While opening a shop next to the dojo is very profitable, it also brings some trouble. Too much business can be quite tiring.

However, Heath was filled with anticipation at the chance to meet Senri, the Gym Leader of Petalburg City.

This time, Heath planned to first learn about the Petalburg City Gym Leader, Senri, and his child. Heath was quite curious about Senri's child and whether it was a boy or a girl. If it was a girl, then it should be May. But if it was a boy, then Heath really didn't know who it was, since Heath only remembered May.

May is one of the few main characters that Heath remembers with a decent presence. Another one he remembers is Misty, but Misty also benefits from Ash's fame; otherwise, the average viewer wouldn't be so familiar with them. As for Misty, Heath's strongest memory is of a Pokémon anime he seemed to have watched before, where Misty caught a legendary Pokémon? Which one was it? Heath forgot, but he was certain that Misty caught a legendary Pokémon from the Hoenn region, but he couldn't recall which one it was.

As soon as they arrived at the gym's entrance, Charizard excitedly bumped around in its Poké Ball. Hiss's lips twitched. He hadn't immediately thought of this. Charizard had a very deep obsession with becoming stronger, so he couldn't possibly think that Charizard was planning to challenge the gym here, could he? That would be too absurd. But looking at Charizard's excited state, Hiss thought that Charizard probably really was thinking that.

This put Heath in a bit of a predicament. He had initially planned to just come and take a look around, but he hadn't expected Charizard to be interested in challenging the gym...

"Big brother, are you here to challenge the gym?" A strange voice called out. Heath paused for a moment, then turned around and saw a girl looking at him expectantly. Heath wondered if he was just lucky to run into Haruka. However, looking at the girl's clothes, Heath dismissed the idea. After all, the girl was wearing patched clothes, which didn't look like Haruka at all. Haruka was Chisato's daughter; she wouldn't wear clothes like that.

She should be a girl from an ordinary family, or a girl from a family that is not well-off.

However, patched clothes... Heath admitted that he hadn't seen such clothing in a long time. Patching seemed like something from the past to Heath, which is why he looked so surprised when he saw the patches on this girl's clothes.

"Ah...no." Hiss shook his head. He didn't really want to challenge the gym. Although he now had battle experience and knew how to utilize the abilities of his Pokémon, Hiss really wasn't interested in battles. However, considering how excited Charizard was, Hiss thought that a forced battle might not be out of the question.

However, when the girl in front of her heard that Heath wasn't fighting, her eyes dimmed a little, but she still perked up, clutching her clothes, and looked at Heath to ask a question.

"So, big brother, would you like to know about the Petalburg City Gym? I know a lot of things!" the girl said earnestly. Heath paused for a moment after hearing this, then looked at the girl with a strange expression. Could this girl be an information broker? After all, her current actions seemed to be those of an information broker.

"Yes, there is some... Do you know why the Petalburg City Gym requires the nearby vendors to deliver boxed lunches?" Heath did have something he wanted to know, which was the answer to this question. After all, Heath really couldn't understand why the Petalburg City Gym would require the nearby stalls to provide boxed lunches, and seven boxed lunches at that. It wasn't many, but Heath was very curious.

"I know that! It's because there are seven dojo trainees from poor families at the Orange Blossom Dojo, that's why they made this request." The girl said with a smile. Heath nodded after hearing this, as it was similar to his own thoughts. He also thought that delivering lunch boxes was probably for the people inside, and who they were for? Naturally, those who needed to be provided with free lunch boxes were the ones from poor families.

Although Heath didn't know why Orange City had such a strange rule, he didn't care. It was just seven boxed meals; he could give them away. There were always some strange people in this world, and Heath was well aware of that. He had even encountered customers who ate at his restaurant for a long time and then thought that since his restaurant was being demolished, he should get a share of the profits. It just goes to show that the world is full of wonders, and not encountering those oddballs was just good luck.

The girl happily introduced some information about Petalburg City to Heath, including the Gym Leader, Mr. Senri, and his daughter, May. Heath listened with a smile. This girl was clearly an information provider; she knew the lineup of some Gym Apprentices and could even offer suggestions, so she was at least quite good.

Finally, facing the girl's hopeful gaze, Heath smiled and gave her the money. It was just a little money, nothing to worry about. Besides, he had solved the problem without going in, so Heath was quite happy. However, feeling the fire-breathing dragon on his waist shaking, Heath was still a little worried. Did he really have to go in and challenge it?

Chapter 938 Charizard Wants to Battle

"...Sir, are you a trainer from the Kanto region?" The girl in front of him asked, looking at Heath. Heath touched his nose and nodded. To be honest, he didn't really want to challenge the gym, since he had no interest in that area. But looking at Charizard's expectant eyes and listening to its pleading, Heath couldn't bring himself to refuse, so he had no choice but to agree. However, after agreeing, Heath regretted it a little. But since he had already agreed, he naturally wouldn't just do nothing. So he went to the Petalburg City Gym and prepared to challenge it.

"Okay, since you don't have any previous gym battle records, we've arranged a beginner battle for you. Please take this number to battle room number one to participate in the battle." The girl said politely. Heath wasn't surprised, after all, the League's gym battles are supposed to have flexible difficulty, which is arranged according to the number of gym badges a battler has. It's not strange that someone like him, who has no gym badges or battle records, would be assigned to a beginner battle.

Even back in Viridian City, the arrangement was the same. To challenge a Viridian City gym, you had to determine your opponent based on your progress in collecting gym badges.

However, Hiss shook his head. He showed his trainer card. Although it was indeed a beginner level, the problem was that Hiss wasn't a true beginner. Hiss himself was very strong. Putting aside Hiss' Pokémon, Hiss's Champion-level battle experience alone was enough for him to be proud of these gyms. Plus, with his well-trained Charizard, Hiss felt that he had a chance of winning even against the gym leader, Mr. Senri.

"Well, my Pokémon are Charizard and Zoroark, so the difficulty of beginner opponents might not be suitable for me." Hiss smiled and said to the staff in front of him. The main reason was that Charizard craves worthy opponents, and beginner opponents are basically just mediocre gym apprentices, which are not challenging for Hiss. Zoroark alone can easily defeat those beginner gym apprentices.

The staff member looked at the Pokémon Trainer cards provided by Hiss, then made a phone call. Hiss's opponent changed from a beginner to an elite Gym Leader. Hiss was quite satisfied with this, after all, elite-level Gym Leaders were quite powerful. Although he felt a little regretful that he couldn't meet Senri, he also knew that it was not an easy thing to battle a Gym Leader unless he collected enough badges.

Heath calmly walked into the battle room. Inside was a man, and another person wearing an alliance uniform was standing there. Heath knew this must be the referee. However, there were still some people sitting in the battle room. Elite-level battles already had spectators, but for ordinary or beginner battles, unless the player was very popular, there were generally not many people watching. Heath looked at the player in front of him and sighed helplessly, but still went up to start the battle.

When the battle began, Hiss noticed that the elite trainer's face was dark because Hiss's Charizard was just too massive. The match ended without any doubt, with Hiss emerging victorious. This made Hiss feel a little bored; he had simply let Charizard use Flamethrower, and the battle was over once the opponent was hit. However, Hiss thought this was normal, since Charizard was still quite strong, and after eating so many candies, it would be absurd if it couldn't even defeat an opponent like this.

"Congratulations on obtaining the Petalburg City Normal-type Gym Badge!" The referee politely handed the badge to Heath, who accepted it with a smile. He then glanced at Charizard, whose face was full of frustration. It was clear that Charizard was very excited, extremely excited, but there was nothing Heath could do. The opponent's strength was what it was, and there was nothing Heath could do about it.

"You're very strong. I think you can challenge our Gym Leader, Mr. Senri." The elite trainer walked up enthusiastically, shook hands with Hiss, and then looked at the extraordinary Charizard beside Hiss with envy.

"You flatter me, you flatter me." Hiss was very polite. He didn't really intend to collect badges. He came in to challenge Charizard purely to satisfy Charizard's desire to battle. Speaking of Charizard, Hiss's expression became strange. He remembered that Charizard seemed to want to challenge him before, and he even took him there. But Hiss couldn't quite remember what the challenge was, and even if he did, it was a Kanto badge, not a Hoenn badge, so they weren't interchangeable.

Heath defeated the elite gym leader, but that was about it; it didn't cause much of a stir. At most, some of the onlookers became curious about Heath. If Heath continues to challenge other gyms, he will gain some fans, though not many. However, as Heath collects more and more badges, his fan base will gradually grow, and eventually, he might even have a huge following. If he can challenge the Elite Four, even if he fails, Heath can still live a comfortable life thanks to these fans.

The world of Pokémon is so pure; people have an innate, fervent pursuit of powerful trainers. After all, humans are creatures that crave strength.

"How are you feeling?" Hiss asked Charizard. Charizard seemed a little dejected. It felt that this battle was not what it had imagined. After all, it longed for a battle of equal strength, but this was a complete stomp. This made Charizard somewhat disappointed. It started thinking about Garchomp. The opponent was very strong, and it couldn't beat him yet. But it was precisely because of this that it could discover its own weaknesses and find ways to continue to grow stronger.

"That's normal. You're already quite strong." Hiss patted Charizard on the shoulder. Right now, the most reasonable opponent for Charizard would be the Elite Four, but the Elite Four aren't easy to encounter.

Once back on the food truck, Heath tidied up his things and prepared to start business. He also had to provide seven bento boxes for the Orange Blossom Dojo. The bento boxes were simple; Heath had made them before. Two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes were usually enough, so it wasn't too complicated.

Chapter 939 Thousands of Miles

"Gym Leader, Officer Misaki said that someone has already set up a stall near our gym. Would you like to go and take a look?" In the Petalburg City Gym, a boy looked respectfully at the man in front of him. The man was not very old, dressed in very simple clothes, and had short hair, but he looked very energetic. This man was Senri, the Gym Leader of the Petalburg City Gym.

As the Gym Leader of Petalburg City, Senri's strength is quite good. However, Senri is currently facing a problem: he can't beat a Gym Leader, Wallace, the Water-type Gym Leader. That young man is very strong. Senri's ace, Slaking, has swept through so many Gyms, but he was defeated by Wallace. This has troubled him, so he has been training recently.

"No need, anyway, Miss Mimasaka must have already told us about our dojo's requirements." Senri opened his eyes. He was in the middle of training and didn't care much about such trivial matters. After all, there was always competition for the stalls next to the dojo. Although the lady had gone back home yesterday because of some family matters, Miss Mimasaka had promised to try her best to reserve the stall for her. Even if someone set up a stall there, it wouldn't last long. They would probably leave in a few days.

The boy scratched his head and then agreed. Anyway, it was just a casual remark. He and his fellow students just missed Aunt He Nai's cooking. However, Aunt He Nai had left because of family matters, so they could only wait for a while. They hoped that the new vendor could make some delicious food.

Watching the boy skip away, a smile appeared on Chisato's lips. These children were all orphans he had adopted, exactly seven. Originally, Chisato hadn't planned to rent out the stall next to the dojo, but considering that the person who took care of these children, Kazuna, was also quite poor, he simply rented the stall to Kazuna. The only thing he had to do was provide boxed lunches for these seven children, but that was something Kazuna had always been doing, so there wasn't much to say about it.

However, she didn't expect that there were some things to do at home with Nai, so she would occasionally need to leave for a while. Then someone came to inquire whether she could rent that place. Senri thought that it could also bring in extra income for the dojo, so he agreed, but the only requirement was that they continue to provide boxed lunches.

"Hmm? Officer Jenny? That name sounds rather strange... I remember now, isn't he the boyfriend of Champion Ran?" Chisato picked up the information sent by Officer Jenny and glanced at it, then suddenly remembered this. The chef in front of her named Officer Jenny who rented her stall, wasn't he the male lead who was popular for a while before?

Although this is Hoenn, not Sinnoh or Kanto, Cynthia, the champion, is a hot topic. The fact that her boyfriend is not a trainer makes it even more interesting. His identity as a chef has also caused the topic to rise wildly. So even people in the Hoenn region know a little about Cynthia and Cynthia.

Thinking about this, Chisato became somewhat interested. After all, he was the champion's boyfriend. Although Cynthia had said that her boyfriend wasn't a trainer, many people thought that someone who could defeat a champion must be a trainer with considerable skill. Chisato had previously heard his daughter, May, talk about this champion boyfriend. The adorable little girl's excited expression made Chisato, as a father, a little jealous.

Then Chisato saw the record of this person challenging his dojo, defeating the elite students in his dojo in a crushing victory, which made Chisato even more certain that this man must be very strong.

"Never mind." Qianli stood up. He decided to go next door and check out the other person's cooking skills. If their cooking was really good...

Thinking of this, Qianli went out. The Normal-type Gym has many training rooms. Some teach how to improve a Pokémon's defense, while others teach how to improve critical hits. However, all students learn from him how to train and raise Pokémon. This is what gym apprentices do every day. After all, trainers like Qianli are very skilled at training and raising their Pokémon. Ordinary people really can't compare to their potential.

As soon as Senri stepped out of the dojo, he saw a food truck next door. This wasn't unusual. Ever since Heath's information was leaked and made public, many restaurants have started to have their own food trucks. However, these trucks don't meet the standards of the space trucks designed by the Shiruff Company, but most people still have them.

On one hand, they want to ride the wave of popularity, and on the other hand, they hope to be noticed by a champion. Miss Zhu Lan has the looks, the figure, and the strength. It can be said that once she becomes the champion's partner, she will be set for life. So many people have such thoughts. However, unfortunately, there has been no new good news so far.

Qianli calmly walked in. As soon as she pushed open the door, the sound of wind chimes came from the door. Qianli looked up and saw a string of wind chimes made up of small Pokémon. It was quite pretty.

"Welcome, esteemed guest~" A gentle voice reached his heart. Chiri looked up in surprise and saw a Kirlia smiling at him. Behind her, many plates were flying around. There were quite a few guests sitting inside. However, what surprised Chiri the most was that the Kirlia in front of him was a different color. This really surprised him.

It's worth noting that even in the Hoenn region, Shiny Kirlia isn't very common. In fact, I know that the twin Gym Leaders in Mossdeep City are searching for Shiny Kirlia, but they haven't found one yet.

"Please have a seat, sir." Kirlian politely guided Chiri to a place to sit, then smiled and handed him a menu. The first thing Chiri saw was the words "As long as we have the ingredients, we can make anything." This made Chiri smile. He had heard his daughter say that Heath, the owner, was a very unique boss, and it seemed that was indeed the case.

"Really, anything is possible?" Qianli asked with some curiosity.

Chapter 940 The Secret to Slacking Off

"Of course, sir. What would you like to eat?" Kirlian glanced at Qianli with a curious look. She could sense the man's emotions; he was full of curiosity, not looking for trouble. So Kirlian's tone was very polite. After all, sometimes guests would ask such questions, which wasn't surprising. The only thing that intrigued Kirlian was that this guest seemed quite strong; he must be a very capable trainer.

Pokémon can sense the strength of their trainers; this seems to be a talent that almost all Pokémon possess. This is why powerful Pokémon sometimes disobey weaker trainers. Kirlia can sense that the man in front of her is very strong, but since he is a guest, she won't say anything.

Qianli fell into deep thought. Although he had indeed asked the question, he couldn't give a clear answer. After all, he ate very common foods and didn't eat anything strange. However, speaking of strange things, Qianli remembered a type of food he used to eat at home when he was young and his family wasn't well-off. That kind of food is not commonly seen nowadays, and Qianli was curious whether Xisi could make it.

So Chiri shared his thoughts with Kirlia. After he finished speaking, Kirlia asked him to wait a moment, as she needed to consult Hiss about this matter, since she had never seen such food before.

As Chillian went to report, Chiri's eyes were somewhat dazed. That kind of food was very delicious to him back then, but now he eats very good ingredients every day, and he doesn't know if he still has the appetite to eat that kind of food. After all, that kind of food is basically used as Pokémon feed now.

"Heath! A guest said they'd like to eat something... food made with cow offal, do we have any?" Kirullian's voice echoed in Heath's mind. Heath was stunned. Good heavens, in this day and age, to actually find someone who likes offal in this place? This is truly a rare find. You know, not many people eat offal; most people don't eat it much, especially here. People have very little interest in offal. When Heath went to the market, offal was mostly used as animal feed; very few people bought it to eat.

The people in this world are a bit strange; they don't eat offal or pig's trotters much, which makes these ingredients very cheap. However, because not many people eat them, Heath himself doesn't buy them much unless he's craving them. Most of the time, Heath buys things that his guests like to eat so he can use them to entertain them.

"I can make it, but you'll have to wait a bit." Heath glanced at the man's head; his request for food was clearly visible above his head—it was indeed beef offal. It seemed he wasn't just there for the ride. However, Heath didn't actually have any beef offal on hand, since practically no one would order it. So, naturally, Heath didn't have any in stock. But Heath didn't care; he could go buy some. Although it was too late to buy it now, Heath could use the Psyduck Merchant Guild's shopping app to order it and choose an instant delivery service.

Although this would lead to higher prices for offal, given the cost, Heath decided to bear the cost himself. He had plenty of money to spare, and entertaining guests was a legitimate business. He didn't mind spending some money; it was better than spending money to tip female streamers.

Under Heath's inhumane purchasing spree, the offal was quickly delivered by Alakazam, and Heath received it. The offal was very fresh, but Heath had already decided what to make. He planned to make a spicy offal soup, which the customer should like. However, Heath felt that the customer in front of him looked somewhat familiar, but most middle-aged men actually looked pretty much the same, so Heath didn't pay much attention to it.

"Can you make it?" Qianli was pleasantly surprised. In this day and age, there were still people who knew how to make beef offal? You know, nobody eats that stuff, so Qianli originally thought that Heath wouldn't be able to make it. But who knew that Kirullian came over and told him that she could make it, but it would take a while. Waiting a while didn't matter to Qianli. What he was looking forward to now was that bowl of beef offal soup that he hadn't eaten yet. That stuff tasted amazing. Thinking of the taste from his childhood, Qianli couldn't help but swallow.

When Qianli was young, his family was not well-off. Eating meat was a luxury back then. Although the Alliance provided good welfare for the people, it was impossible to expect the Alliance to provide them with sufficient material enjoyment. So, since few people in Qianli's family ate cheap animal offal, it became a good choice. In Qianli's memory, a bowl of steaming hot beef offal was the most delicious food in the world.

Qianli's gaze was somewhat unfocused as he thought of some past events. However, before he could recall the taste of his childhood memories, a steaming bowl of soup was placed in front of him. Qianli was stunned for a moment upon seeing it, and his nose twitched subconsciously as he inhaled the aroma. It was somewhat familiar, yet also somewhat different. Hesitantly, he picked up his chopsticks and took a bite. It was indeed beef offal, though somewhat unfamiliar, yet also somewhat familiar.

Heath watched from the kitchen, quite curious about the customer who had ordered offal. After all, not many people order offal, so it was a good thing that someone was doing it. Heath hadn't made offal in a long time and didn't know if his skills had deteriorated. However, seeing the satisfied look in the customer's eyes after finishing his meal, Heath was relieved. It seemed that although he hadn't made offal in a long time, his skills were still up to par.

You've entertained guests from afar, and in return, you've learned the secret to slacking off.

[The secret to slacking off: When you're slacking off, you're less likely to attract attention and your presence is greatly reduced.]

Heath was stunned. Good heavens, the customer who ordered the beef offal was Qianli? It was fine if he was Qianli, but why would he give her some kind of "secret to slacking off" after she served him? How could she slack off when she was the boss? Slacking off her own fish?

Chapter 941 Qianli likes to eat beef offal

Heath's expression was a bit strange. In his previous life, he was also a slacker when he worked. After all, slackers were born to slack off, and slacking off was a privilege among the elite. Plus, his terrible boss liked to play dirty tricks, like manipulating performance evaluations, creating conflict, and making empty promises. So, Heath was incredibly good at slacking off, never wasting a single opportunity. But the problem was, now Heath was working for himself, he was his own boss. If he slacked off now, wouldn't that be like slacking off on his own, creating trouble for himself?

As the saying goes, if employees work hard from 9 am to 9 pm, the boss will soon be able to buy a Rolls-Royce. But now that Heath is the boss himself, he doesn't need to slack off anymore.

So Heath felt that the reward was somewhat useless, unless Heath would take a job when he was bored, in which case the skill might come in handy. But before that, Heath felt that the skill had no special use, and he wouldn't go out to experience life when he was bored, unless Heath really couldn't stay idle. But if he really couldn't stay idle, why didn't he continue to entertain guests himself? That would be in line with his interests.

But since the reward had already been given, Heath couldn't really refuse it, so he accepted it. Who knows what use it might be in the future?

"So it was Chisato." Heath clicked his tongue. He really hadn't expected that the person eating offal over there was Chisato. But now that it was mentioned, Heath felt he understood why the person looked familiar. After all, it was Chisato. Heath had watched the anime and played the game, so he had a good impression of Chisato. Moreover, Chisato was also Haruka's father. Although Haruka wasn't particularly beautiful, she was still a beauty in the making. However, Heath vaguely remembered that Haruka later went to participate in the Grand Contest, and he wondered if it was because of Mikoli's influence.

If Lance is the most popular figure in the Kanto region, then Wallace is the most popular in the Hoenn region. This master of the Contests is also a very strong Gym Leader. Heath knows that Wallace will eventually become the Hoenn Champion because his friend Steven doesn't want to continue. Although Steven does not want to continue, Wallace's future as Champion will not be entirely due to his friend stepping down. Even if Steven steps down, Wallace will still need to defeat the Elite Four and fight his friend once more before he can become the Champion.

After all, this is the Pokémon Champion title, which is not something that can be given to just anyone. You need to have the strength to earn this honor.

Even though Wallace isn't a Pokémon Champion, he's incredibly popular because he's also a Pokémon Coordinator, and a Master Coordinator at that. While Pokémon Contests may not seem particularly famous in the games, they're actually a major, recognized event within the Pokémon League, and Coordinators are highly regarded. A Master Coordinator like Wallace is practically no different from a Champion.

Senri's daughter, May, was probably influenced by Wallace, or perhaps she found her future path during her travels. However, Heath himself didn't have any special feelings about the Pokémon Contests. He didn't intend to become a Pokémon Trainer, nor did he intend to become a Coordinator.

Meanwhile, Qianli had finished eating and was wiping his mouth with satisfaction. It had been a long time since he had tasted such a familiar flavor. However, the offal that Heath made was even tastier than he had imagined. Qianli licked his lips and suddenly understood why Heath had won the heart of the beauty. His cooking skills alone could be said to have firmly captured people's stomachs. Moreover, he could even make something as unappetizing as offal taste so good. Qianli was very curious whether Heath was just as good at making other dishes.

"Mr. Heath, the food you made tastes really good." Qianli had just finished eating when he saw Heath coming over with a bag containing seven boxed lunches. He immediately knew that Heath must know his identity, so Qianli smiled and said to Heath.

The other diners in the restaurant also recognized Chiri's identity. Some impatient trainers were even eager to jump out and fight Chiri. After all, this was Chiri. If Chiri's Normal-type Gym Badge was collected last, then Chiri would show his strongest side and often beat those trainers to the point of wishing for death. Many people put Chiri and Wallace together, but everyone thought that Wallace was still a bit stronger than Chiri.

"Mr. Qianli, you flatter me. This is today's lunchbox." Heath handed over the bag. He had been making lunchboxes earlier, but since it wasn't mealtime, he hadn't delivered them immediately. But now that Qianli was here, he could just deliver them to him and let him take them back. That way, there wouldn't be any problems, and it would save him some trouble.

"Mr. Heath, I'd like to ask if you're interested in challenging the Gym Leaders and becoming a Trainer? The Hoenn League is about to start this year, and with your strength, collecting all the badges shouldn't be a problem." Senri asked Heath. He had watched Heath's battle replays, and that Charizard was incredible. When he saw that Charizard, Senri thought of the Salamence he had seen when challenging Elite Four member Genji before. It was just as muscular and powerful. It just goes to show that even among Trainers, there is a huge difference.

"Forget it, I'm not interested in the competition. I only came to challenge the gym this time to fulfill Charizard's wish. It's very interested in battling." Heath shrugged. He really wasn't interested in the competition. After all, battling didn't have any special meaning. He was only here to fulfill Charizard's wish. If Charizard didn't want to go, Heath wouldn't go either.

Qianli felt a little regretful. He really wanted to battle Heath once, since Heath's Pokémon seemed quite strong. However, Heath only registered five Pokémon, including relatively weak ones like Kirlia and Farfetch'd. He estimated that their battle strength was indeed insufficient to support a battle with six Pokémon.

"By the way, Mr. Heath, could you please make hot pot tomorrow? My daughter, Xiaoyao, is very curious about you." Mr. Qianli suddenly remembered something, then turned to ask Heath. Heath paused for a moment after hearing this, then nodded.

Chapter 942 How big is the brain of the Farfetch'd duck?

“Xiaoyao… I really didn’t expect Xiaoyao to know me.” Heath stroked his chin and then casually washed the plate in his hand. Heath was indeed quite surprised that Xiaoyao knew him. However, Heath was also curious about what Qianli meant by Xiaoyao being curious about him. Heath wasn’t a pervert; he was just genuinely puzzled. After all, he was just a chef, not some kind of big shot, so Heath couldn’t quite understand why Xiaoyao would be curious about him.
