"First, we get to know each other through Pokémon battles. After I understand Saya's Pokémon, I can then devise a strategy to defeat the enemy. Also, if there is a significant difference in our strength, we can use this time to improve our strength to make up for it."

"The success rate of rescuing Hina is higher when two people work together."

Xiao Zhi gave a casual explanation.

Actually, all he wanted was to battle Pokémon.

Has this man already considered this?!

I was so foolish to look at him with the eyes of an ordinary person.

This person is actually even more innocent than Minato-kun. He has no ill intentions towards me and has a broader vision of Pokémon.

Saya's eyes widened, a look of shock flashing in them as she gazed at Satoshi with utmost reverence.

She couldn't help but think of her team's captain, Minato Yukina.

In her memory, Minato Yuuki was also the kind of person who wasn't interested in romance and focused entirely on Pokémon battles.

Yukina:?

Currently, Saya is absolutely smitten with Ash.

"That's right, Mr. Ash, please have a proper battle with me!"

Then, she slowly bent down and bowed deeply to Xiaozhi in a solemn manner.

Great! Now we have a new formidable rival!

By this time, Ash had already popped the champagne, while the girl in front of him was completely unaware that she was being entangled by the Pokémon "Shinso".

The two arrived at the battle arena together, while Ash's other Pokémon watched with great anticipation.

Saya took a Poké Ball out of her pocket and threw it.

"Go! Sniper Tree Owl!"

"Naba!" The Decidueye flapped its wings and soared into the air. A fierce fighting spirit ignited in its sharp eyes as it stared intently at Ash ahead.

"Gengar, I choose you!"

Ash swung his hand forward, signaling to the Pokémon that was about to make a move.

"Genga!"

Gengar instantly flew across and landed steadily in front of Ash, raising its head and staring intently at the Decidueye in the air.

Their eyes clashed silently, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.

Gengar...a Ghost/Poison type Pokémon?

In that case, we have to use Ghost-type moves to attack!

"Sniper Tree Owl, use Shadow Thread!"

With this thought in mind, Saya issued the order with great momentum.

Shadow Stitch [Ghost]: While attacking, stitches together the opponent's shadow, preventing them from escaping.

"Naba!" The sniper tree owl pulled the ribbon next to its bow tie, shaping it into the shape of a bow, and instantly took out the feathers hidden in its wings and placed them on the bow ribbon.

"Raid!"

"Gengengenga!" Just as Decidueye fired its feathers, Gengar swiftly moved in front of Decidueye, its right fist glowing with Dark-type energy.

Gengar gave Decidueye no chance, landing a powerful punch on its body.

"Naba~~"

This shot knocked the sniper owl to the ground.

boom!

Its body made a loud thud when it hit the ground.

Surprise Attack [Evil]: Allows you to attack before your opponent. If your opponent's move is not an attack, the attack will fail.

With its speed of surprise attack combined with its own speed, Gengar hit Decidueye before Decidueye could even use its move.

"So fast!"

At this moment, Saya couldn't help but feel a little startled.

The two Pokémon already have a speed difference, plus a difference in strength and moves.

Saya had already lost at the very first point.

At the same time, Ash didn't intend for the other party to go easy on him because of a lapse in concentration. Since Saya was going to be on his team, Ash would train her based on the standards of Shoko and Yukina.

What are women?! I'm going to beat them up in Pokémon!

"It's not over yet! Saya, don't get distracted!" Ash gently touched the brim of his hat and chose to continue his attack.

"Shadow ball!"

"Genga!" Gengar suddenly appeared in front of Ash.

Without the slightest hesitation, it swiftly released the Shadow Orb.

"Use Guard now!"

Seeing this, Saya hurriedly tried to make amends, but because she was distracted, she was a step too late.

"Naiba...Nai~~~!"

Before the Sniper Tree Owl could cast Protect, it was already severely damaged by Shadow Ball.

The immense force completely shattered the sniper tree owl, which let out a scream and was slammed to the ground, where it remained motionless.

“genga~~~”

"Great job, you did a very good job."

After the battle, Gengar flew over lightly and snuggled close to Ash, hugging him like a child and rubbing against him happily.

824 Saya wants to repay Satoshi

To be honest, it was too easy to win.

Ash's inner fire remained unignited; it seems he raised Gengar to be too strong.

But Little Intelligence understands that this level of skill is insufficient to fight against Nihilego.

It seems like it will!

Not to mention that there are even more dangerous Ultra Beasts among them.

For example, when Satoshi meets Guzzlord, he thinks that Saya will be eaten if she fights it.

In other words... intense special training is needed!

"So strong..."

Saya was still unable to react.

She felt a sense of lingering satisfaction. She had just wanted to have a Pokémon battle, but it was already over. She hadn't been able to see the difference between the two at all. Ash had raised that Gengar to a level she couldn't even comprehend. Was it a Gym Leader? Or even one of the Elite Four?

"If it's just this level, I won't take you to find Hina. Ultra Beasts aren't simple creatures."

At this point, Xiaozhi's attitude turned cold.

Rather than involving this girl, he might as well go himself with the Pokémon.

At least Saya's life is not in danger. He not only needs to save Hina, but also protect Saya.

This battle carries special significance. Ash's passion for Pokémon battles remains undiminished, but he has deeper considerations in mind. He wants to truly test his opponent's strength through this battle before considering his journey.

In other words, Ash is the Gym Leader today, helping challengers grow.

Upon hearing this, Saya's expression gradually turned serious. She stared intently at Satoshi, unconsciously clenching her fists.

"No, Mr. Ash, this level is perfectly acceptable! Please give me some proper training."

Fortunately, Saya wasn't the type to run away; she had no intention of giving up.

"no problem!"

I've been waiting for you to say that!

Training with Saya and engaging in intense Pokémon battles with her created a deep emotional connection that I will cherish for years to come.

Just thinking about it makes Ash's blood boil. He's definitely going to train Saya hard so she'll battle with him all day long, until she's so tired she can't get out of bed!

At the same time, being with Satoshi rekindled Saya's confidence in winning Hina back, giving her the will to fight.

"Mr. Ash, I promise you'll train with me all day today!"

then...

"Haa~ Haa~ Mr. Ash, ...Do I still need to train? I feel... like I'm going to break down."

Hours later, Saya's cheeks were flushed, her long blue hair was casually tied into a single ponytail, and she looked somewhat tired. She sat weakly on the ground, beads of sweat sliding down her delicate skin and glistening on her fair chest.

His eyes revealed a hint of confusion, and his expression seemed lost.

Wait... wait a minute! Didn't I come here to train my Pokémon for battles?

Why do we need to train our bodies now?

Because she would encounter situations that weren't Pokémon battles, Saya realized she needed to train.

But she wanted to complain even more.

What the hell is this man?!

"Growlithe, use Extreme Speed ​​on me!"

"Roar!!" Arcanine was enveloped in a strong silver light, reaching its maximum speed as it charged towards Ash.

"Too slow!" Ash swayed his body and easily dodged Arcanine's attack.

After dodging the attack, Ash gave Arcanine no chance to catch its breath. He quickly swung his hand, striking Arcanine's neck.

"Roar~~~" Ash's attack was quite weak. Arcanine was hit so hard that it fell to the ground instantly, its body twisting in pain and unable to move.

They're actually fighting Pokémon!

Was there any mistake? !

My dog ​​was beaten up!

At that moment, Saya completely understood why Ash's Pokémon were so strong.

With such a powerful trainer as a sparring partner, how could he not become stronger?!

"Awoo awoo!" Lucario followed Ash's movements and exchanged punches with him.

boom! boom! boom!

An unusual sound of punching came from the box, and Saya began to doubt whether the boy in front of her was even human.

"Take a rest first, but you still need to train! Don't worry, Saya, I've arranged for Miss Joey to be there for you. She'll be waiting for you at my doorstep anytime!"

Ash was also very thoughtful in considering Saya's needs, and specially invited Nurse Joy to train Saya with Pokémon-level power.

"No way... Miss Joey too..."

Saya's icy beauty was completely defeated by this amount of training, leaving her looking extremely disheveled.

It was then that she realized something: Xiao Zhi truly had no feelings for her whatsoever.

Ash was more excited when petting Arcanine than when he was looking at her.

"Is this a break time? Or should we ask the team members how they get along with their male friends first?"

Thinking this, Saya gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, slowly took out her phone from her pocket, and began her questioning.

She was filled with gratitude for Xiaozhi, but due to her lack of experience with men, she seemed somewhat at a loss.

To repay Xiaozhi, it's best to approach it from a romantic perspective; for a boy, this would be the best reward...

Saya, who didn't fully understand Satoshi, started sending messages on her phone on her own.

Saya: How do you get along with your boyfriend?

Lisa: No boyfriend. Rinko: Someone I have a crush on...I have...hard to say. Ako: I am the Great Demoness of Darkness...

Unfortunately, none of his teammates seem to have ever been in a relationship.
