Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master...

Because Xia did indeed buy all the daily necessities and supplies recently.

Calling Ash a gigolo isn't entirely unfair.

"Sister, may I say a few words?"

"Why are you calling me 'young man' so affectionately? Let me tell you, if Xiaoxia doesn't grow during her travels, I'll make her go back to Hualan City and get married."

Is it really okay to just give away your own sister?

"It's for giving away."

"Then give it to me!"

"Sure, as long as you can help Xiaoxia become an excellent trainer, I'll give it to you!"

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Xia was completely dumbfounded when she saw the two people in front of her working together to sell her out.

"What's my opinion?"

But Ash quickly hung up the phone and dragged Misty to the training ground for a battle.

"Ash, why are you taking Sakura's words so seriously? She was just trying to scare you, could it be that you..."

Seeing Xiaozhi's energetic demeanor, Xiaoxia asked the question that had been bothering her.

"That's right, because I can't lose you."

[Ding! Xiaoxia: Affection +1]

"Who will bathe my Pokémon now that you're gone?"

After hearing this, Xiaoxia punched Xiaozhi on the head. She was also born with superhuman strength and was able to give Xiaozhi a small bump.

"I shouldn't have had any illusions about someone as muscle-bound as you."

After saying that, Xiaoxia turned and walked away towards the Pokémon Center without looking back.

Xiao Zhi quickly shouted with a smile, "It's true that I don't want you to get married!"

"I know, I won't marry anyone else."

------------

After training your Pokémon, it's time to happily allocate attribute points again.

Ash has now accumulated a lot of free attribute points.

He likes to reflect on his trip after it's over, considering his shortcomings and areas for improvement.

Then, based on this, a more reasonable point allocation arrangement can be reached.

"My stamina was still insufficient when fighting Sabrina, and my defense also needs to be strengthened..."

After some thought, Xiao Zhi finished allocating his skill points.

Xiao Zhi is actually very dissatisfied with the current panel data. The fact that the numbers are not rounded or even makes his obsessive-compulsive disorder very uncomfortable.

Even the few unfinished tasks in the task list looked irritating to him.

"This red dot setting is really annoying."

Unfortunately, tasks like the Dragon King's Son-in-Law or the Peerless Little Nanniang cannot be completed immediately.

"The only way to distract myself is through exercise."

Take out the Poké Ball of the training target.

"I choose you, Gible!"

A small gray shark appeared on the field, and as always, it turned around gracefully and bit Ash's head again.

"Ouch, it hurts! It hurts so much!"

Ash quickly took it off his head.

[Ding! Gible: Affection +1; Intimacy +2]

Even though it couldn't harm Ash's body, it still caused him pain.

The teeth of this gible shark are also considered to be of a god-like conceptual level.

The Gible arrived at the field, circled around for a while, and then ran to Ash's feet, tugging at his pant leg.

"Hmm, what are you looking for, Ralts?"

Upon hearing the name Ralts, Gible nodded excitedly and frantically.

"I'm telling you, Ralts is male, so give up on that idea!"

Seeing its sycophantic behavior, Xiao Zhi couldn't help but tell it the truth about Nan Niang.

"..."

Upon hearing this shocking news, Gible was so terrified that its entire Pokémon turned grayish-white.

His mouth gaped open, and he fell straight down as if struck by lightning.

Tears streamed down his previously blank eyes; he must have been questioning the meaning of life.

"Oh, how pitiful they are."

Helpless, Xiao Zhi quickly squatted down and stroked its dorsal fin to comfort it.

"There are plenty of fish in the sea, why be hung up on Xiao Nan? I'll find you a few more female sharks later, so don't be sad, you loser."

Suddenly, the Gible's body emitted light.

"This white light is the light of evolution."

No Pokémon evolves because of a breakup!

Even after its evolution, Garchomp still walks on two legs and has a shape that closely resembles a shark.

He was still the same useless guy, lying on the ground crying and refusing to get up.

"Ugh, this is such a headache."

If the soft approach doesn't work, then we'll have to resort to the hard one. Xiao Zhi took a deep breath, focused his energy in his dantian, and raised his hand to gather strength.

"The Iron Fist of Love!"

…………

With Ash's patient and gentle encouragement, Garchomp quickly cheered up.

He channeled his grief and anger into strength and began training.

Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Dream-Inducing Baku and Psyduck (Please continue reading, please vote with monthly tickets)

After challenging the Rainbow Gym, Ash and his friends rested for a few days before continuing their journey to the next gym.

However, Rainbow City is a mega-city cluster surrounded by multiple satellite cities.

So they probably won't get lost in the woods again on this trip.

However, the lack of opportunities to battle wild Pokémon in big cities made Ash miss Team Rocket for a while.

"Those idiots, though annoying, provide real, hard-earned experience."

"Xiao Zhi, look! Why is that aunt over there staring at you?"

Following Xiaoxia's words, they saw a pretty young woman staring at Xiaozhi.

"Xiao Yi, I've finally found you."

The aunt stared at him for a while, then ran over and pulled Xiaozhi into her arms.

[Congratulations, host, you have achieved the milestone: First time using face wash!]

[Rewards: Alliance Coins +200; Stamina +1]

"Wait a minute, I'm not Xiao Yi, let go..."

I actually wanted to enjoy it a little longer, but it was really covered up too tightly.

Moreover, this aunt didn't seem to be in good spirits. Xiao Zhi is a gentleman and would never take advantage of someone in distress.

After Auntie calmed down, Xiaozhi and the others finally understood what was going on.

It turns out that something strange has been happening in this town lately: adorable children have been going missing one after another.

The aunt's son, Xiao Yi, was also one of the victims.

After searching for many days, the aunt was so disoriented that she mistook Xiaozhi for Xiaoyi.
