Pokémon, Ash is going to become a perfect man from now on.

"What is it saying?" Xiaoxia was completely confused.

“There’s no need to talk about martial ethics with scoundrels and their trainers. If you’re not happy, come and fight!” Lila repeated Chikorita’s words perfectly.

“You pervert… So Chikorita is a girl, no wonder she reacted so strongly.” Brock suddenly realized, “If someone suddenly leans in like Heracross, they’re definitely likely to be mistaken for a pervert.”

"It's strange that you don't have this awareness," Xiaoxia muttered to herself.

However, soon, an even more surprising situation arose on the field!

"Seriously... I just hit a Chikorita leaf, and it's like I get a Pikachu?!"

Chapter 335 Chrysanthemum Leaves, Warlike and Competitive

Ash only faced a cute Chikorita, yet he completely outclassed Zhang Da Wang, which inevitably draws criticism. Wasn't he being a bit too unfair?

"That's what Chikorita requested," Lila explained quickly. "It made my brother send out his strongest Pokémon, and said it would... beat it to a pulp!"

"This chrysanthemum leaf..." "Those tough words before a battle are so succinct."

Xiaoxia and Xiaogang were both surprised at the same time, realizing that Chrysanthemum Leaf was no pushover either.

"If you want to fight, I can oblige... but if you lose, would you like to consider being subdued by me?"

"Chik, Chik~"

Ash tentatively suggested it, but Chikorita looked disdainful.

"Your strongest weapon is just an electric rat. You're so weak, there's no way you can subdue me~" Lila faithfully translated.

"Wow, quite unique~" Xiao Zhi couldn't help but smile. The proud Leaf was indeed extraordinary.

"Chik!" Chikorita launched the first attack, lashing out with a powerful vine whip!

Faced with such an attack, Pikachu didn't even bother to retaliate, simply dodging it with a slight sidestep.

A flash of anger crossed Chikorita's eyes, followed by another vine whip attack, which Pikachu easily dodged...

"Chikorita!" But this time, Chikorita used a feint. The vine whip suddenly changed direction in mid-air, swirling horizontally towards Pikachu, completely blocking its escape route!

slap~

Pikachu simply stretched out one of its little paws and easily swatted away the whip tip!

"Chik?" Chikorita, not believing in fate, lashed out with her vine whip again, only to be sent flying once more!

"Pika, Pikachu~" Pikachu put its hands on its hips, its expression as sarcastic as could be.

"Chikkchikchikchi!" Chikorita seemed to have lost her temper, whipping her vines at Pikachu repeatedly, but none of her attacks were effective.

"Why is she fighting with the rattan whip?" Xiaoxia looked at Lila in confusion.

"Idiot, I've already seen through your whip pattern~"

"Okay." "I totally understand."

Xiaoxia and Xiaogang both understood at the same time.

Ash's Pikachu is strong, but it's also incredibly mischievous. If they were to put themselves in Chikorita's trap, they would definitely fight to the death with their opponent.

"Pikachu (Watch my ten-volt current!)~"

Pikachu grinned mischievously and suddenly released a wisp of electricity from its hand, which traveled along the vine whip and made Chikorita feel numb all over!

When the next wave of electricity struck, Chicory Leaf quickly released an invisible barrier, mitigating the damage in time.

"It's a Light Screen, it seems to be quite powerful." Lila said happily. She knew that Ash wanted to catch it, and Chikorita would be as strong as possible.

"The wild Pokémon around here told me that this Chikorita is quite famous locally, almost invincible in the forest," Ash nodded in satisfaction. "Its personality is also very strong, so it's definitely worth catching."

"They're really tough. They've been beaten so badly but they still won't give up... Most wild Pokémon would have run away by now."

Chikorita, panting but still determined to get up and attack, was just like Heracross from a while back... but Misty could tell they were different.

Heracross wasn't fighting for his life; he just wanted a taste of the pollen.

Chikorita, on the other hand, focuses all its attention on Pikachu!

It's all about fighting, fighting to the very end no matter what... and it absolutely has to win!!

"Chrysanthemum Leaf, don't stand still! Run! Use Leaf Blade!"

"Chik?" Chikorita, who was about to swing her vine whip, was taken aback.

The human on the other side is actually giving me orders?

"Pikachu~" Pikachu shrugged knowingly, seemingly already aware of Ash's plan.

Commanding wild Pokémon to battle and getting them willingly to join the pirate ship—someone did this quite often on Orange Island.

"We can't win like this anyway, so why not trust me this once? Maybe we'll make a breakthrough~" Ash suggested with a smile.

"Chikorita... Chikorita!" After thinking it over, Chikorita chose to trust Ash and started running around Pikachu, continuously throwing out sharp leaves from all directions!

"Don't stop! Keep using the Leaf Blade!!"

"Chik! Chik!!"

The chrysanthemum leaves swayed tirelessly, and the number of flying leaf blades gradually increased from just two at the beginning, eventually transforming into blades flying in all directions!

"Pikachu?" Pikachu finally showed a serious expression. It raised an electric net around its body, letting the opponent's attacks clang and clatter against it, but did not take any further action.

It also wanted to see just how far chrysanthemum leaves could go.

"Chikorita... Chikorita!!" Finally, Chikorita's fully charged blade shattered the arc of electricity around Pikachu, and it couldn't help but let out an excited cry, actually using its last bit of strength to charge at Pikachu!

"Hey, no way..." Ash was about to stop him, but Chikorita had already bumped into Pikachu!

Then it went to bed...

With Pikachu's current power, using Chikorita to impact it would be tantamount to self-harm; the recoil alone would be enough to stun it!

"Chik..." After an unknown amount of time, Chikorita with round eyes finally woke up.

After a futile and crushing defeat, it felt sore all over... but a warm current was helping it recover.

It instinctively looked up and found the human right beside it, seemingly treating it.

"Chik!" But when it saw Pikachu, it showed a defiant look!

"That's enough. You're not in a good enough condition to fight anymore." Ash immediately restrained the restless Chikorita. "Little guy, you may be considered strong, but you're no match for Pikachu right now."

"Cheek cheek!" Chikorita retorted indignantly upon hearing Ash's words.

How can they not be opponents?

Even if it loses now, it will definitely win in the future!

"Pikachu~" Pikachu yawned lazily, and without any apparent effort to gather its strength, it simply clenched its little fist and slammed it into the ground...

Boom! !

The surrounding ground cracked instantly, and the immense destructive power startled Chikorita!

"Chik..." At this moment, besides being shocked, Chikorita's eyes clearly showed the words 'want to learn'.

"Pikachu (Want to learn? I'll teach you!)~"

"Qi, Qike (Tch, then I'd better not learn it)~"

"I can teach you... If you're willing to be captured by me, I can train you to become stronger, and even master this power!" Ash sincerely invited. "Besides, you love battling, right? How about coming with me to challenge other powerful Pokémon?"

"Chikorita... Chikorita!" Chikorita's eyes suddenly became incredibly determined, and she even reached out her vine whip to search for the Poké Ball hanging on Ash's waist.

It has been targeted by trainers many times, but no one has been able to capture it, even though they are well aware of the trainers' methods.

It's just hitting, then grabbing the ball, then throwing it, right?

The human in front of me has a natural aura about him that I really like.

Moreover, he's quite capable and good-looking, so going with him would be a good idea...

Thinking this, the movements of the vine whip became even more urgent.

"Please, I'll find it myself!" Ash said speechlessly, pulling away the vine whip that was causing trouble.

Sometimes, the problem is when you only have a superficial understanding. If you want to find the ball, look for it on the side of your waist. What's the point of unbuckling my belt?

Chapter 336 Heading to Happy Town, the True Protagonist Makes His Appearance

"Chrysanthemum Leaf, training can stop now."

During their continued journey, at the end of their daily training session, Ash immediately stopped Chikorita, who was still practicing.

However, Chikorita paid no heed to this and continued honing her special technique.

By enhancing his attack power through sword dance, he could slice through rocks with his flying leaf blades; later, with the help of the vine whip, he could jump as high as possible to increase the impact of the crushing force.

"Chik..." Her body fell to the ground almost losing its balance, and Chikorita's face showed obvious resentment.

It's definitely impossible for it to reach Pikachu's earth-shattering power right now...

Then keep training and try to reach it as quickly as possible!

"Chikorita, I just said practice stopped!" Seeing the little guy still trying to show off, Ash immediately called out to stop him. "Or... don't you want a hug?"
