The time he mentioned was exactly the time when Misty came to Hoenn to find Ash and go to the Mirazu Kingdom together.

"That's quite a coincidence."

A gym badge is a symbol of a gym trainer's recognition of a challenger; it's essentially the gym endorsing the challenger's strength with its own reputation.

I didn't expect Sakura to be so unreliable; she just gave away the gym badge without warning.

Ash could already imagine Misty's furious reaction when she returned, but he knew he would be fooled by Sakura's pitiful fake tears and forgive her.

This has become a regular feature of the Cerulean Dojo.

At this point, Ash was even more surprised than when he had heard about Ash's lucky deeds.

To lose like this, even with Wartortle, Bulbasaur, and Charmeleon, Jimmy is truly a talent.

"Then why did you come here to study?"

Jimmy lowered his head even further when the topic came up.

"Well, I came to Lilyo City for tourism after I lost all confidence while traveling in the Kanto region."

"Because I wanted to think carefully about where I wanted to go in the future, I rented a small wooden boat that was moored in the harbor."

"I just hoped that the sea breeze would calm me down, but I accidentally fell asleep, and the oar rope that was securing the small boat suddenly came loose at some point."

"While I was asleep, my companions and I were swept away by the current and drifted to this remote place."

"And then you joined the referee training academy?"

Ash held Jirachi, who was trying to fly out and hit Jimmy on the head, and asked, "..."

"That's right, that's how it happened."

"When I first came here, I also thought it was fate, so I planned to give up the path of a Pokémon trainer and focus on becoming a professional referee."

"But now, even if I try my best, I still fail."

"In the end, whether I'm a Pokémon Trainer or a referee, I can't pass the test. It's so tragic, sob sob..."

When he got to the sad part, Jimmy immediately lay down on the ground and cried. The turtles quickly came over to comfort him, which calmed him down a little.

But then, Jimmy suddenly looked up and stared intently at Ash.

"Ash, that little star-headed Pokémon next to you, that must be Jirachi, right? There are legends about it in my hometown."

"As a wish-granting Pokémon, Jirachi naturally likes to stay with lucky people. It's so clingy to you, so you must be a lucky person like me."

"Please, could you teach me how to get my life back on track?"

"I possess extraordinary luck?"

Ash was completely bewildered by this sudden request; he didn't feel like he was usually so lucky.

"I get lost every day, and I have a lot of bad luck."

"But you are a powerful trainer. I remembered that after I showed you around the school this afternoon."

"Ash from Pallet Town has been undefeated since his debut with Pikachu. He won the League Championship in his first year. Your legend is spreading throughout Kanto. You are much stronger than me in any way."

“My elders said that a coward like me has the luck of great fortune, but not the fate of great fortune.”

"A gift that is not commensurate with my position will cause me to experience greater misfortune with every small stroke of good fortune."

"So please, since we're from the same region, teach me how to change myself, Ash-senpai!"

As Jimmy knelt down, weeping and begging, his three little friends also looked at Ash with their big, watery eyes.

It made Xiao Zhi dizzy.

"I just can't do anything with you."

Doraemon couldn't stand being begged, so he had no choice but to agree to Jimmy Nobita's request, since Nobita had given him money that day.

"But since you suddenly said that to me, I don't know what to do."

"Please think of a way!"

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have triggered a new legendary quest, "To Be Luck or Not, That Is the Question": Please help Jimmy become a truly lucky person!]

[Rewards: Alliance Coins + Random; Free Attribute Points + Random; Silver Crown + Random; New Trait: Super High School Level Luck]

"...Alright, I have no choice but to help Jimmy now, but to be honest, how exactly should I help him?"

Looking at the pathetic man in front of him, who was begging for his attention with a standard saddle, Xiao Zhi felt a headache coming on.

But overthinking wasn't in the muscle man's style. He strode up to Jimmy and lifted him off the ground.

"You're usually like a sports idiot, you'll fall down on flat ground and fall into the river when you walk along the riverbank... In the end, it's probably because your physical strength isn't good enough."

Even when Ash encounters misfortune, he can easily handle it all with his powerful strength.

For him, there was no such thing as good fortune; he simply crushed misfortune.

He's now projecting Jimmy onto Nobita.

A loser who stumbles and falls while walking, someone who looks like he's destined for misery, how could he possibly be truly happy?

So let's start by improving our physical fitness.

"Come here, let me check if your body is developing normally."

Xiao Zhi immediately got to work; he was going to use his expert hands, which were well-versed in human anatomy, to give Jimmy a proper diagnosis that night.

"Hmm, this isn't a good idea."

A terrifying gaze swept over him, and Jimmy was so frightened that he retreated repeatedly.

But when Ash snapped his fingers, May and Max immediately lifted him up from both sides.

"Hmph, this is all for your own good!"

Jimmy, whose tendons were suddenly squeezed tightly, screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

"Ah, Brother Zhi, no!"

"Sweetie, let me see!"

Chapter 485 Make a Wish, Young Man

After a thorough examination, Jimmy collapsed to his knees, utterly exhausted.

His test results surprised Xiaozhi greatly.

How could that be?

"What's wrong, Ash?"

May and Max quickly gathered around, and only then did Ash say something in a daze.

"Jimmy's body is surprisingly strong and healthy."

"What? Unbelievable!"

"This is so unexpected."

"Hey, it's just health, why are you all so surprised!"

Jimmy thought he had some amazing physical talent, but it turns out he was just at the level of an ordinary person.

"It's your fault for always tripping and falling on flat ground. It's normal for people who trip and fall on flat ground to have several serious illnesses."

"What exactly is your problem with people who fall flat on their faces?"

"This is one of the most important signs of a ditzy and cute girl. Apologize to all the lovely girls."

"Shut up, you're not a cute girl!" Ash punched Jimmy back to the ground.

"But if that's the case, then where does Jimmy's problem lie..."

At that moment, Xiaoyao suddenly thought of something.

"Ash, could it be that Jimmy's aura is too weak, which is why he can't carry off his good luck?"

"After all, as the saying goes, people with the wrong mindset can't handle good luck even if it comes their way."

"He just kept believing he was unlucky, so even though he was originally lucky, he actually became unlucky."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi nodded.

"Indeed, he always had a cowardly and insecure demeanor."

"Don't say that."

Jimmy stood up, feeling limp all over.

"I've never succeeded at anything since I was a child, so it's too much to ask me to suddenly show confidence now."

"Perhaps it would be much better if Mr. Jimmy won his match once."

Xiao Sheng had long noticed that Jimmy's expression was most dejected when he talked about never having won a single match.

"Great idea! Jimmy, it's not even 8 p.m. yet, we still have plenty of time, let's go to the school and find someone to play against!"

The people at the referee academy are not professional trainers, and their Pokémon battle skills are quite average.

"We should be able to win." Ash pulled Jimmy up to leave, but Jimmy shook his head frantically.

"I can't do it! From the moment I started my journey until now, I've inexplicably lost even when battling bug-catching boys on the roadside. It's impossible!"

"How can you say it won't work before you've even tried? Your foundation is quite good, and you've raised those three Pokémon very well."

"They all trust and like you so much, so why don't you trust your companions just this once?"

"Kami!"

"Grass!"

At this moment, Wartortle and the others, who were originally playing with Pikachu and Jirachi, also came to cheer for Jimmy along with Ash.

Seeing the encouraging looks in the eyes of these Pokémon, Jimmy made up his mind.

"No, I still can't do it."

He has developed a phobia of Pokémon battles.

Ash sighed at this, wondering how Jimmy and Nobita could fly like that.
