What is a heavy girl? I want to be a Pokémon master!

Goto Ichiri also wanted to contribute to the team, improve their match points, and then qualify for the high school league challenge, plus a better training facility.

She has social anxiety and rarely sends messages to others; she usually messages her teammates.

Unfortunately, her two companions, both senior high school students, had already left Alora for Carlos, while another companion from the next class, a girl named Kita Ikuyo, was already dead, lying in a hospital bed with no will to live.

Even now, Goto Ichiri can still vividly recall the scene of Kita falling down.

"Wow~ Goto-kun, look! The fireworks that Pokémon released are so beautiful~ Let's go see them!"

Kita's eyes sparkled with excitement as he pulled Ichiri, who was still in a daze and had no time to react.

When Ichiri saw the Pokémon Kita mentioned, his eyes widened, and he was completely unable to appreciate the beauty of the fireworks.

Its head is unique, with yellow eyes at both ends, surrounded by two pink and blue six-pointed star patterns. Pink and blue dots covering the head connect the two eyes.

You're telling me this clown-like, bizarre creature is a Pokémon?

Kita-kun, that thing doesn't look like a Pokémon at all!

To be honest, Iri has never seen anything like this before since she was born.

However, the little AI told Ichiri that this was an ultimate monster called 'Banghead Clown'.

Meanwhile, Kita Ikuyo, the super-positive angler, took out his phone and kept taking pictures, while Ichiri, the negative angler, was powerless to resist.

until...

"Hey~ This Pokémon looks really interesting... Hmm? Woohoo~~~"

Kita Ikuyo's vision went blank for a moment. She tripped over a rock and fell to the ground with a groan. She tried to get up, but found that one of her legs could not support her weight.

"Kita-san?!"

Ichiri looked at Kita, who had tripped and fallen to the ground, in a panic. Kita's body was trembling, and Ichiri didn't know what to do.

They had no choice but to send Kita to the hospital so that the doctors could take care of him.

Doctor: "It's a fracture. With our medical expertise, it should fully recover in about a week!"

With Chansey, Almost Doll, and Flower Therapy Ring in hand, and with the doctor's skill, it would take about a week. Meanwhile, Kita lay in his hospital bed, utterly despondent.

"To trip and break a bone, how embarrassing..."

Perhaps it's a matter of spirit, because Yamada Ryo, another teammate, has been placing a portrait of Kita in his hotel room in the Carlos region and praying to it every day.

In order for the team to develop better, Ichiri had no choice but to invite Ash, whom he cared about, to participate in the Articuno battle.

Even the seemingly deceased Kita entrusted some information to Ichiri: 'He saw the Vulcan moth deep within Mount Nijiba.'

Mustering her courage, Ichiri's fingers trembled as she touched the screen and clicked the send button.

As someone from a yin-yang family, she had already prepared herself for rejection and chose to wait anxiously for a reply.

that is...

This wait didn't last long before Ash's message arrived.

Xiao Zhi: No problem!

Without any hesitation, he replied immediately, adding that he would be participating with his companions.

It doesn't matter how many people there are, as long as Xiaozhi is there, I am invincible!

"Ash, this is so special... Do you like it?... Hehe... Hehehe..."

The vain Yili excitedly started typing on her phone, this time sending a message of hundreds of words to express her gratitude.

Perhaps Aine, with her pink hair and yang-angled features, and Ichiri, with her pink hair and yin-angled features, have quite a few similarities. The biggest difference is probably that one is a world-class flat-chested woman, while the other has a huge heart that rivals the world!

Aine sacrificed her breasts in exchange for her ability to communicate!

Aine: My body, is there something wrong with how you played this round?!

On the chat app, Ichiri sent a message of several hundred words to express his gratitude, and after Ash responded, he focused his attention on the Pokémon.

Pikachu, Froakie, Rillaboom, Blaziken, Garchomp, Egg!

Get ready to start training, learn new moves, and think about strategies against Volcarona and Articuno.

The Pokémon are currently talking to each other to foster camaraderie within the team.

"Boom! (Am I saying that the only way to get Gigantamax is in the Galar region?)"

"Basha~! (In the future, I will have the Maga evolution that Ash talked about~)"

“gabu~ (Isn’t it mega?)”

"Koga~! (I can bond with Ash and transform into a weird Z-Move!)"

"Pikachu~ (I have my own Z-Move and 3 other Z-Moves!)"

Actually, going to the Padina region has the ability to crystallize, which can change the type of all Pokémon. So crystallization is actually quite good.

It's much better than just having fun in the Galar region with Dynamaxed gear. You can take the Crystal Orbs out, but the only downside is that they need to be charged, and charging can usually only be done in the Padilla region or Blueberry Academy.

Crystal Orb: A precious orb containing the power of crystallization. After being charged, it can crystallize a Pokémon (change its type).

Ash wanted to prepare a Crystallizer for his Pokémon, but unfortunately, charging it was too troublesome, and he simply didn't have the time.

I heard that it's possible to use Crystallize in high school leagues. There have been students who used Crystallize and even used Z-Moves in combination.

Is this...is this legal?!

Shouldn't the school investigate this thoroughly?!

Student: Don't worry about whether it's legal or not, I've already made arrangements with the principal!

Since such an operation is possible, it is probably legal in high school leagues.

Unlike real tournaments, where Z-Moves, Dynamax, and Crystallize can only be used once, students are also tested on their collecting abilities.

This rule might be convenient for wealthy people, but according to Xiaozhi's investigation, the high school league can only use Taijinghua once, so having money without strength is useless.

It was basically a fairly fair competition, so Ash didn't care.

No matter who the opponent is, it's impossible for them to beat him and his group of companions.

"Alright, let's work hard to reach Mt. Rainbow and see Volcarona! And then there's the battle against Articuno!"

Xiao Zhi, his blood boiling, stepped forward and clenched his fist.

"Pee~!" "Koga~" "Gabu~" "Boom~" "Bashar~"

What followed was the positive voices and energetic motivation of his companions.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhi couldn't help but smile.

"Garuda, use Dragon Claw on me! Let's test our speed!"

The first step, naturally, is to judge Garchomp's movements by its physical presence, allowing it to hit its opponent more consistently.

“gabu!”

"Not fast enough!"

Ash's heart burned even brighter as he easily dodged Garchomp's claws.

Wait for me, Xiangzi, Su Shi!

I will definitely not let you down!

220 Ai-yin is considering confessing her feelings. Ash: Target - Articuno!

The school was unusually deserted. As Xiaozhi arrived at the school and looked around at his surroundings, he couldn't help but have this thought.

It was completely empty; there weren't many people around.

[Zhibao, there are practically no students in class anymore.]

"It's probably because Articuno and some other people have a reason to stay home and rest or go out and play during this time of major events."

Ash understands this feeling. After spending so much time at school, battling and playing are definitely more fun than long, theoretical lectures.

Add to that the Articuno incident, a legendary Pokémon that no trainer wouldn't want to encounter.

Most people will probably just relax and enjoy themselves, but that doesn't stop them from having a legitimate reason to ask for leave.

The schools in the Pokémon world are ultimately different, and they encourage students to actively go on adventures and travel, which makes perfect sense.

"Ash?~" At this moment, Aine approached Ash, slowly stretched out her arms, wrapped her hands around Ash's waist, and hugged Ash from behind, her soft, flat body pressed against Ash's body.

"Aiyin... Good morning."

"Pikachu~"

Ash felt the warmth from Ai's voice, and his body involuntarily relaxed. At the same time, Pikachu on his shoulder waved hello.

"Hmm, good morning~" Aine tiptoed slightly, her lips gently touching Satoshi's neck.

As for Pikachu? We don't need to worry about it; it won't say anything anyway!

Aine and Satoshi spread out of their way and walked side by side on the way to the auditorium.

Due to the small number of students attending the school, the course was changed to "Understanding the characteristics of Pokémon," and students from all subjects gathered together.

Rainbow Feather: Since we're all here, let's learn something before we leave!

Xiao Zhi: Now that things have come to this, is it too late for me to ask for leave?

Having learned about the characteristics of Pokémon, Ash is aware that this is knowledge that every student, regardless of their major, must master. Ash doesn't care much about this kind of knowledge, but he does need to make sure that the knowledge keeps up with his own!

With all the accumulated knowledge, this kind of class really didn't interest Xiaozhi.

"Su Shi isn't here?... That's rare."

Aine's gaze swept over her surroundings, and she felt relieved.

Sensing no hostility, Aine was able to confirm that Tou Suze was not there.

Since she's never seen anyone below, wouldn't that mean she could take things a step further with Xiaozhi?

That is to say...

Me, alone with Ash? ...Huh? Really?!

Aine's cheeks flushed slightly. She 'accidentally' reached out and touched Satoshi. Then, realizing that he didn't refuse, she simply took his hand.

The two walked hand in hand to the auditorium, and Pikachu couldn't help but feel like a third wheel.

"Pikachu pika (Ash) Pikachu pika (Ai-ne) Pikachu pika (Together, can I leave?)"

"Xiao Zhi, I bought a big tent yesterday. We should be able to use it to sleep tonight. Let's use that tent to sleep when we go to Rainbow Feather Mountain."

Ai Yin moved closer to Xiao Zhi, slowed her pace, and casually mentioned her plans for the next few days.

To participate in collecting the scales of the fire moth, you must make the necessary preparations. The entire Rainbow Feather Mountain is quite large, and it may take several days of travel to even see the fire moth.

The extremely rare Pokémon Volcarona, Aine is really not guaranteed to see it.

The key is still spending time alone with someone you like!

We have to beat that funny girl who so easily kneels down to her knees and thoroughly humiliate Xiaozhi in front of her.

Su Shi: Please, Aine, give Xiao Zhi back to me!

Aine: I...don't I need it?

Su Shi: We need it! We need Aine!

Ash~LOVE?~

Lost in her fantasy, Chihaya Aine's eyes filled with large hearts. In her imagination, her hands were clasped together, simulating the feeling of two people holding hands, and she felt a deep sense of happiness.

It's just that... this time, the scale collection wasn't a two-person trip to Rainbow Feather Mountain, but a four-person trip, which made me unhappy.

Her central position was in jeopardy, as other women might steal the spotlight.

In particular, according to Aine's understanding, there is a pink-haired girl who looks very similar to her in the group.

They met during the 'Afro Buffalo Cup' event, but Aine didn't have much of an impression of the pink-haired girl.

What impressed me most was his immense magnanimity, comparable to that of Su Shi... To be honest, I'm a little envious.

Aine began to feel uneasy.

"No problem, I also bought the Wild Area Control Gold Spray yesterday, so the Pokémon won't come near."

For the sake of the team, Ash also prepared the corresponding items.
