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

In the picture—

After Xiaochun left.

Professor Oak leisurely arrived, and upon seeing Ash, who was completely black, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Ash, if you don't get up soon, you'll miss the opening ceremony."

Professor Oak's words were like a quick-acting heart medicine.

Whoosh, very quickly!

Ash immediately regained his full energy.

The body, blackened by the electric shock, simply twitched a few times before returning to normal.

There's absolutely no indication that this is the same person as the charcoal-faced guy from before!

This scene caused an uproar in the live chat!

[Masted: This child is very talented. Come and learn martial arts from me! The fact that he can recover from such injuries reminds me of an old friend.]

[Leon: Master, this old friend you're talking about wouldn't happen to be Professor Oak, would it?]

[Lt. Surge: Oops, now that you mention it, I remember! We've always had this legend about the ultimate rookie.]

[Denji: Tell me more, I also want to have such strong electric resistance!]

[Cynthia: Tell me about it, I'm interested too.]

Professor Oak: *cough cough*

[Lt. Surge: Haha, I was just kidding. It's just that Ash is too special; he might possess powers we don't know about.]

[Da Ye: That's it? I thought there would be some profound theories. You might as well say that Ash is the reincarnation of Raikou.]

Everyone agreed that this made a lot of sense.

Otherwise, how could a human possibly be hit by an electric-type move and remain unharmed?

Eliminate all the impossibilities, and whatever remains, no matter how outrageous, is the real one!

Ash! It's a Pokémon!

"No! Wait for me!"

The two of them walked into Sakuragi's research lab.

By the time Ash arrived at Sakuragi's lab, the opening ceremony had already begun.

Xiao Zhi finally managed to squeeze to the front of the crowd.

Before him stood Professor Sakuragi, who was speaking eloquently. Ash looked around.

Xiaozhi's eyes met Xiaochun's, and he gave a shy smile.

This made Xiaochun feel embarrassed, as she felt that the person in front of her looked somewhat familiar.

It feels like I've seen it somewhere before!

Ash's gaze didn't linger for long; instead, he focused all his attention on Professor Sakuragi.

There's no way around it, Dr. Sakuragi's performance is just too exciting.

Just as Dr. Sakuragi was about to present one of his research findings.

A huge exclamation mark filled the screen in front of Dr. Sakuragi.

Xiao Zhi looked completely bewildered; he was about to see what it was.

The surrounding crowd stirred, their eyes turning to Dr. Sakuragi.

I want an explanation.

Ahead, Dr. Sakuragi frowned, searching intently for the root of the problem.

Soon, Dr. Sakuragi got the result he wanted.

Dr. Sakuragi licked his lips and said in a somewhat excited voice:

"A mysterious Pokémon has appeared in Vermilion City. It's currently near Vermilion Port, but of course, I can't confirm its identity!"

Before Professor Sakuragi could finish speaking, Ash dashed off in a flash.

The word "reckless" runs through his entire life.

Xiao Zhi knows how to gain the upper hand!

The others reacted immediately after seeing Ash leave and rushed towards the exit.

"Professor Oak, I'm going to check out the port."

Only Xiaozhi's voice still echoed at the scene.

Xiaochun felt instinctively uncomfortable upon seeing this scene.

"This guy is just like that person! He's so annoying!"

Xiaozhi's reckless behavior reminded Xiaochun of some unpleasant memories.

That childhood experience is like a nightmare, constantly reminding Xiaochun to be careful in making friends.

Xiaochun wouldn't be able to stand it if she encountered someone who put others in danger again!

However, watching Ash's figure gradually disappear...

Koharu, however, felt a sense of curiosity about Satoshi, or perhaps a trust in his character.

Would this boy also abandon himself in danger?

Or... he might make a different choice!

The seed will sprout once planted, and driven by curiosity, Xiaochun chose to follow without hesitation.

"Dad, I'm going out for a bit."

With that, Xiaochun chased after him without looking back.

"When did this girl become interested in Pokémon? She was terrified before."

Dr. Sakuragi was very puzzled.

Professor Oak, who was standing nearby, also came over at this moment.

"I'm sorry, Sakuragi. I didn't take good care of Haru back then, which is why that happened."

However, Professor Oak's expression was one of deep regret.

Since its inception, his summer camp has only had one incident involving Xiaochun, which also caused Xiaochun to no longer want to be close to Pokémon.

Even Koharu doesn't want to become a trainer.

Professor Oak felt extremely guilty about this.

In this world, most people choose to receive their starter Pokémon at the age of ten and then go on a journey.

Xiaochun is already fourteen years old, but she has not chosen to become a trainer.

Even when she goes to school, she still can't accept Pokémon.

Professor Sakuragi was really worried about this.

But now, things seem to have taken a turn for the better.

Professor Sakuragi wasn't blind; he naturally noticed the way his daughter looked at the boy Professor Oak had brought.

Childhood wounds need to be healed by peers; perhaps that boy can help Xiaochun overcome her pain.

"Professor Oak, what's that child's name?" Professor Sakuragi asked.

"Him?" Professor Oak remarked, "His name is Ash, and he's an amazing kid."

……

[Serena: Ash! He's the gentlest person I've ever met. We went to Professor Oak's summer camp together, and I accidentally got injured in the forest. Ash carried me back!]

[Xiaoxia: Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect you, a straight man, to actually care about girls?]

[Xiao Zhi: Is there something? I don't remember!]

[Serena: You idiot, Ash! I still have the things you gave me. I'll return them to you in person when you get to Kalos!]

[Hanako: Oh ho ho, I never thought my Ash would have a girl who likes him, this is so exciting!]

[Serena: Aunt Hanako, my name is Serena, I'm...]

[Gary: Excuse me, but I'm Ash's real rival!]

Baiyin Town.

As Xiao Mao stared at the constantly scrolling barrage of comments, an unspeakable rage welled up inside him.

Xiao Zhi, you actually have a girl who likes you!

how can that be!

"Young Master Mao, don't be angry. Here, have some grapes~"
