Pokémon: A Roundup of Ash's Eight Masters' Peak Battles!

Gengar was completely helpless against the turret combination of Pikachu and Scorbunny.

Finally, after being accidentally hit by a ball of fire, Gengar's body smashed through the lab's door and flew out.

Ash rushed out immediately, only to find that Gengar had already disappeared.

"What a pity, this Gengar is quite strong."

He almost caught a Gastly back then, but it ran off with Sabrina.

Ash really wanted to catch this Gengar, but since it ran away, he decided against it.

[Big Leaf: Wow, that's so cool! Let's try it, Electric Boy! I think my Infernape can do it too!]

[Denji: No, you should forget it, I'm scared.]

[Leon: Ash's ideas are truly genius. Scorbunny's final evolution has the signature move Fireball. I think Ash must have had Pikachu help train Scorbunny to better adapt to it.]

Ash: Really? I'm so amazing!

[Shigeru: Satoshi, you idiot.]

[Ash: You idiot Gary, could you even come up with such a clever idea? How dare you call me an idiot!]

[Hanako: Ah, Gary and Ash are such good friends~]

How did you figure out that these two have a good relationship?

They're practically fighting!

Leon has indeed developed a different opinion of Ash.

Allow Pokémon to get used to the moves they will learn after evolving, so that they can master them after evolving.

That's truly a level of understanding that's ahead of everyone else's.

Sabrina: This Gengar is so cute~

This one is also a heavyweight!

……

In the picture—

Dr. Sakuragi was constantly apologizing to everyone around him.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have bought this haunted house to use as a research institute."

Researcher: "Are you really not afraid of us dying!"

Xiaochun: "Mom gave you enough money. Are you trying to pocket this cheap haunted house?!"

Faced with his daughter's questioning, Dr. Sakuragi was already drenched in sweat.

Dr. Sakuragi clasped his hands together in a pleading gesture: "Please! Please don't tell Mom that I just used this money to buy a new research device, and I definitely didn't intend to save it for myself."

Are you serious?

.......

Chapter 34 Five years later, Mr. Adu is still a superstar?

After Professor Sakuragi's repeated requests.

Xiaochun also promised not to tell her mother.

Dr. Sakuragi then wiped away non-existent cold sweat from his forehead.

"By the way, remember to let me know if Gengar appears next time. I think it probably mistook us for intruders, which is why it attacked us."

"But we've been living here for so long."

"Maybe... Gengar went to eat earlier."

Ash's eyes narrowed. "Gengar is strong, but don't worry too much. It's not a bad person, otherwise it wouldn't just be playing pranks."

"Why don't we ask the Alliance to handle this? After all, the Doctor has already bought the house," one researcher suggested.

Ash refused without hesitation: "I have a feeling that this Gengar is destined for me. I will resolve this matter. If all else fails, I will let it live in my house. My mom is home alone and has no one to keep her company."

Everyone looked at each other, clearly not expecting Ash to give such an answer.

[Hanako: What nonsense is this child talking about?]

(Madam, you don't want Ash to be unable to fulfill his promise, do you?)

"Um, Ash, could you put me down first?" Xiaochun's ears turned slightly red.

Having been hugged by Xiaozhi for so long, she had already felt her body temperature rising.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Xiao Zhi smiled shyly.

As a reward for Ash's help, Professor Sakuragi gave Ash two tickets.

Two tickets to the World Championship Finals!

"Really? Then I'll be able to witness Mr. Dan's championship moment!"

He was presented with a ticket by Dr. Sakuragi.

It was Xiaochun who was excited. Even someone like Xiaochun, who was new to Pokémon battles, had heard of Mr. Leon's title as the strongest champion.

However, Ash remained completely unmoved.

Something's not right, something's very, very wrong.

Xiaochun's eyes were full of suspicion. How could Xiaozhi, who was clearly a battle fanatic, not be interested in the most famous competition in the world?

"Hey Ash, aren't you interested in Leon's matches?"

"what?"

Ash asked Haru a soul-searching question.

"Who is Dan Di? And what is the World Championship?"

Professor Sakuragi and Haru: ? ? ?

researcher:???

audience:? ? ?

You, a regional league champion, don't even know about a competition that trainers all over the world are vying to join?

[Big Leaf: Really? Ash doesn't know about the World Championships? This is the competition to select the strongest trainers; every trainer wants to participate!]

[Denji: That's right! Mr. Leon is the strongest of the strong, the strongest person who has never been defeated since participating in the World Championship!]

[Ash: Huh? There are competitions like this? I've never heard of them before. Aren't there only league tournaments for each league?]

[Xiaoxia: Idiot! You didn't even bother to find out!]

[Master: That's Ash for you, isn't it? He's obsessed with battle and oblivious to worldly matters. Perhaps that's why he keeps getting stronger.]

[Gary: So here's the question: Leon, who has never lost a battle since his debut, and Ash, who traveled through six leagues before finally winning the newly established Alola League Championship, who is more like a legendary trainer?]

hiss~

Xiao Mao's question stumped everyone.

Yes, why didn't they think of that?

Compared to Ash, he gave everything for his League.

Leon, who protected Galar's last vestige of dignity, is more like a legendary trainer.

[Grey: So I have a bold guess: everything so far has been just setup! The real legendary trainer is about to appear!]

[Green: That's right, it's me.]

Wait, who are you?

……

In the picture—

After Xiaochun explained for a while, Xiaozhi finally understood what kind of competition the World Championship was.

"A battle to determine the world's strongest trainer? I'm fired up again! Pikachu!" Ash's eyes shone brightly; this was the first time he had felt his blood boiling since returning from Alola.

It's burning up!

"Pickup!"

Pikachu truly lives up to her reputation as Ash's queen!

They understand each other's thoughts without even needing to look at each other.

"Let's go, the competition starts tomorrow, we need to hurry to Gongmen City."

Xiaochun excitedly grasped Xiaozhi's hand, and the two burst through the door.

Oh... no way, the door has already been smashed down by Gengar.

"Come back soon~" I saw the two figures gradually disappearing into the distance.

Dr. Sakuragi wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. His daughter had grown up and didn't want him as her father anymore.

Wiping away his tears, Dr. Sakuragi immediately became serious.
