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

Soon, the two Cosmogs yawned and, in their sleep, both formed oval-shaped star cocoons.

“Cosmom…” Ash stared blankly at the two eggs floating beside him. He thought they would have to wait a while before evolving, but Ho-Oh had brought about this.

"That way, you can go back and verify it quickly." Phoenix King chuckled, seemingly wanting to take credit, and asked, "How was it? Wasn't I amazing?"

"Yes..." Xiao Zhi said with a forced smile.

In short, he's in a pretty awkward situation right now...

(I knew it! I'm the best. So what if Lugia can have babies? I can hatch two legendary eggs for him!)

(Dear hero, hurry up and find another sun in Alola, and try to free me as soon as possible!)

(Then I'll use magic to transform and stay by your side as long as I want, and that guy will have to be your servant for the rest of his life, hahaha...)

"Hey, Ho-Oh..." Ash had no choice but to stop the phoenix's daydreaming, "Do you remember our telepathic connection just now?"

"What's wrong?" Phoenix King was clearly unaware of the problem.

"I forgot to turn off the Superpower..."

"Gah?!" The phoenix was so frightened that it let out a cry like a big-mouthed sparrow, and in shame and anger, it flapped its wings and soared into the sky, leaving behind only a mess of rainbow feathers in its wake.

Ash casually caught the falling feather, looked at the rainbow hanging in the sky, and a sense of relief gradually rose in his heart.

He must be very lucky to receive such favor…

Chapter 745 I heard the Ibu family is the standard for girlfriends?

A minor incident occurred on Mount Azusa, and Ash realized he wouldn't be able to see Ho-Oh anytime soon.

But... what form will that magical transformation it mentioned take?

It should be similar to Xiao Gang's Nine-Tailed Fox...

I'm getting a little excited just thinking about it!

Since Korne wanted to continue her training with Lucario and also build a bond with her new partner Marshadow, she decided to stay on Mount Azuma.

After saying goodbye, Ash left with Lillie.

On the way back, Lillie held the two Star Cocoons in her hands, taking great care of them the whole time.

"They're sleeping so comfortably. When they wake up, they'll have completely evolved, right..." Lillie stroked the hard shells of the two Kosmos, feeling a mix of anticipation and uncertainty.

Ash previously stated that after Cosmog evolves again, it will truly become Aldebaran and Umbreon, beings of equal status to Ho-Oh!

Will they still be as close to me as before...?

"It's alright." Ash saw through the girl's worry and comforted her gently. "Even when they're asleep, they're still aware of the outside world and know everything you've done for them. Besides, the fact that you picked them up already shows that you've earned their approval."

The standard weight of a Kosmos is 999.9 kg, but that's just game data. In reality, their mass is equivalent to infinity.

They can float using superpowers, but only those who are truly recognized can lift them up.

Furthermore, beings whose power surpasses that of a first-level god can also forcibly lift them up.

This is actually quite similar to the Meow Meow Hammer... a terrifyingly heavy Star Cocoon that can also be easily carried in a bag~

"Does she approve..." Lillie murmured to herself, even feeling a little flattered.

Someone as clueless as her is being validated by that legendary existence…

"Ash, what do you think I should do?" Lillie asked with utmost seriousness.

She suddenly wanted to do something to change her current situation and to earn Xiaoxingyun's approval.

"Just follow your own ideas, and the most important thing is to be brave enough to try," Xiao Zhi encouraged. "Once you take the first step, you will definitely gradually find your own path."

"In that case... what do you think about me participating in the Island Tour?" Lillie asked tentatively. "Besides the League Tournament, I'd like to try a challenge like this."

"Of course, no problem!" Ash readily agreed. "Once we get back to Alola, I'll personally conduct your grand test!"

"Huh? If Ash is hosting..." Lillie visibly trembled.

Xiao Zhi's big test... she probably won't even be able to get past the threshold...

Kiawe also said he would give Ash a big test, but it hasn't started yet... To put it bluntly, he's too cowardly to take on the challenge.

"Your big test... I might as well tell you now." Ash thought for a moment and said, "Complete what you're working on. When you can completely eliminate the shadows and freely interact with all Pokémon, you'll have passed the test."

"Is that... all?" Lillie was stunned.

This kind of test is practically an open-air challenge...

"Don't compare yourself to others. Everyone's situation is different, and the tests are different too." Xiao Zhi finally made the decision. "Anyway, it's decided like this. After you pass, I will give you the Z-Bracelet."

"Really... I will definitely try my best!" Lillie cheered, her fair face turning rosy.

Ash will definitely give Lillie's bracelet in person, but Moen should keep the old bracelet from the anime.

As for the content of the test, so what if Ash released the sea?

If it were Serena and her friends participating in the island trek, the test might have been changed to sleeping with the island king of Pony Island!

The island king can decide the content of the great challenge at will, and someone like Ash, who is very close to the guardian spirit, has the full right to interpret it.

...

After returning to Pallet Town, Ash spent two days cuddling with the girls before preparing to set off again.

All the female companions had their own work to do, and they were only able to get together temporarily because Xiaozhi was back, but they couldn't relax forever.

After some discussion, the group decided to travel to Kuroba City together.

This idea came from Nanami. She mysteriously told everyone that there was a place in Konoha City that was worth visiting and that everyone would definitely like it.

Xiaoxia was the first to agree, having found a luxury liner of comparable size to the Saint Anne's that would be docking at Kuye Port soon.

Since she had such a rare opportunity, she was determined to go on the ship for a sightseeing tour.

Just then, Ash agreed to visit Chloe's house, so everyone hit it off and quickly finalized the itinerary.

But just before they set off, they began to struggle with another matter.

"We can't possibly only be able to get to Vermilion City via the Ring Road, can we? There are so many people..." Misty said this with a hint of reluctance. The Ring Road is fast, but they would have less time to spend with Ash on the way.

"Don't worry, Nanami-neechan will definitely have a way," Xiaolan said confidently with a smile.

Nanami had just hung up the phone when she said, "Don't worry, I've already contacted the Yuhong City company, and they'll send a twelve-seater van over right away."

A twelve-seater van... This solution made everyone break out in a cold sweat.

"What's the big deal? It's only twelve seats," Little Blue said with a grin. "With our Little Ash's abilities, he might even need a bigger bus someday!"

Everyone agreed with what Xiao Lan said.

After all… twelve seats is just the limit for this car, not Ash's limit~

Thus the trip officially began. A professional driver drove a luxury van, carrying Ash and a total of nine girls, heading to Vermilion City like a tour group.

When they arrived, they discovered that the place Nanami had described as a favorite of everyone was actually a research institute, and it wasn't far from Sakuragi's research institute.

“Eevee Evolution Research Institute…I think I’ve heard of this place before.” Xiaochun thought for a moment and said, “It specializes in researching Eevee branch evolutions, and it seems to have only been open for a short time.”

“The director here, Matsubara, emailed my grandfather, saying he’s encountered some difficulties. But my grandfather happens to be preparing for an academic seminar, so he asked me to come and take a look,” Nanami explained. “We can visit together. It’s said that this place has all the Eevee evolutions that have been discovered so far.”

"Agreed!" *N

Nanami is right. Even worldwide, Eevee is an absolutely super popular Pokémon, and its popularity is so great that it appeals to both men and women!

Everyone in the tour group was thrilled to be able to see the largest family portrait ever taken.

"Welcome, Ms. Nanami... Uh, what's going on here?" After everyone arrived, Director Matsubara, whose hairstyle resembled that of a frozen cloth, immediately came out to greet them, only to be taken aback by the scene.

"The situation is a bit special... he came back unexpectedly," Nanami explained briefly.

Upon seeing Ash surrounded by a group of girls, Director Matsubara immediately understood: "Is that Mr. Ash... I get it."

Xiao Zhi secretly scoffed upon hearing this, thinking to himself, "How come you guys know everything..."

After the brief welcoming incident, Director Matsubara led everyone directly to the breeding area. She clearly knew exactly what Ash and the others wanted to do by coming with Nanami.

Like Sakuragi Park, the cultivation area here is a specially designed ecological environment, complete with forests, lakes, and even an iceberg maintained by artificial refrigeration.

Everyone did see the Eevee family photo, from the regular Eevee to all eight evolutions, all nine forms were here!

"Wow, that's amazing! You can see the entire Eevee family at once!" "Yeah, they're all so cute!"

A whole host of girls, young and old, quickly fell for him; that's the charm of Eevee.

The entire family made a collective appearance, instantly captivating everyone.

When they lazily snuggle together and fall asleep, everyone's face will be filled with the desire to pet them.

"My darling, go say hello to your friends too." Upon seeing the water sprite leap out of the water, Xiaoxia immediately released her newly acquired special ability.

Two water sprites frolicked in the water, splashing up joyful ripples.

"The sun is shining brightly here, why don't you come out too?" Rika suddenly threw out a Poké Ball; she actually had Leafeon with her!

"When did Miss Rika catch Leafeon?" Ash asked curiously.

“The research project that Yuhong University recently conducted showed that Eevee can also evolve using Leaf Stone and Ice Stone,” Rika explained. “This child was entrusted to me by the school to be cared for. Its leaves have a unique fragrance, which greatly helped me in making perfume.”

"Two Eevee evolutions..." Little Blue's eyes darted around, then suddenly seemed to have discovered something new. "Hey, have you guys noticed that the Eevee family is practically a standard feature of Ash's girlfriends?"
