Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

Ash's Pikachu was also staring at the old man, as if trying to discern something different.

But Xiao Gang was even more excited than the other two.

Upon hearing this, he had just regained his balance when his narrowed eyes suddenly widened into a slit.

It burst forth with an unprecedented brilliance, comparable to the discovery of an unparalleled erotic painting!

His strong will enabled him to slide forward.

"master!"

Xiao Gang clasped his hands together abruptly, his tone more fervent than ever before.

"Please teach me superpowers! Please!"

"I've wanted to learn this since I was a child!"

Xiaoxia and Xiaozhi were both taken aback by Xiaogang's sudden change.

"Teacher Gang, didn't you say before that you wanted to be the world's number one Pokémon breeder since you were a child?"

Xiao Zhi asked instinctively.

"Breeder? What breeder? I don't understand what you're talking about!"

Xiao Gang turned his head, his face filled with a pure, almost devout longing.

"Superpowers are the destiny of us!"

What surfaced in his mind were certain unspeakable images.

As a superpowered individual, time-stopping, hypnosis, and clairvoyance are standard abilities.

This is simply... simply, the doujinshi has come to life!

Oh no, it's his childhood dream!

"Master, please accept my bow!"

He was about to bow when he said that.

"Wait, wait!"

The tense atmosphere between the two sides was immediately dispelled.

The uncle was a little confused by his sudden decision to become an apprentice.

He quickly stopped Xiao Gang.

"Master! What advice do you have for me?"

"Don't call me master. Superpowers are basically something you're born with!"

"If you're not born with that talent, it's almost impossible to learn it later in life!"

"It can't be forced!"

Xiao Gang was struck dumb, instantly petrified.

"What? You can't force it."

"Then what about my time stop, hypnosis, clairvoyance...?"

The uncle's mouth twitched.

"Putting aside the fact that I can't do any of what you're saying, young man, you need to know that your ideas are very dangerous!"

He paused for a moment, then looked at Xiaozhi.

"I'm so sorry, I used a little trick in my haste to try and keep you here."

Xiao Zhi waved his hand, looking cheerful.

"It's okay, it's good that we talked it out. At first, we thought you were a pervert."

"But that move you made just now was quite interesting, uncle."

Uncle: "......"

This way of speaking.

It always reminded him of a certain red-haired superstar.

"So, is there something wrong with the gym in Saffron City?"

Xiaoxia keenly sensed that something was wrong.

She felt that Cerulean Gym was about to crush Goldenrod Gym, and perhaps today it would be!

Upon hearing this...

The middle-aged man sighed.

"I hate to say it, but that's really the case."

He pointed to the entrance of the Pokémon Center.

Psychic-type Gym Direction.

"The Goldenrod Gym... no, to be precise, Sabrina. She's actually not a very suitable opponent for an ordinary trainer."

"why is that?"

Miss Joey, who had been listening intently and had already caught a juicy scoop, was nearby.

Even though his legs were weak, he still leaned closer and pressed for more information.

"You guys must have all just arrived in Saffron City recently," the older man said, looking at Ash and the others' youthful faces. "Saria... she's a powerful psychic..."

"We do know that."

Xiao Zhi nodded, showing no fear whatsoever, but rather revealing an eager expression, his fists unconsciously clenching.

He enjoys fighting strong opponents!

The older man gave Xiaozhi an approving look.

I can't believe I wasn't scared when I heard that.

Not bad, not bad.

"However, the strength I'm talking about might be different from what you think."

The older man offered a reminder.

That kind of power was... terrifying even to his own father.

Come to think of it, this whole thing is his fault.

Since discovering that Sabrina not only inherited but far surpassed his own superpowers, he has devoted himself to nurturing her power.

They completely neglected their daughter's mental and emotional development and well-being.

Superpowers are closely linked to a person's mind; the stronger the superpower, the more likely it is to become unstable.

By the time he discovered the problem...

Naz's condition is already quite serious.

"Can she stop time?"

Xiao Gang still wouldn't give up and kept interrupting.

The uncle almost choked on his saliva.

"Uh...no."

"What about X-ray vision?"

"Well... as far as I know, it shouldn't be possible, right?"

The man was somewhat uncertain, after all, he couldn't say he fully understood the extent of his daughter's development.

"What about hypnosis? You should know how to do that, right?"

"Well... she is indeed skilled at psychological influence."

The uncle said helplessly.

"But that's not the point! The point is that her power is dangerous!"

"The three things are the same... Then it seems you have some strength, but not much."

Xiao Gang stroked his chin as he commented, clearly still struggling with his "old three things".

"not much?!"

Upon hearing this, the uncle became unhappy.

"Young man, what do you know! Telekinesis, instant teleportation, psychic abilities... Sabrina can even vaguely see fragments of the future sometimes! Isn't that powerful enough?!"

"Can she stop time when she sees her future self?"

Xiao Gang asked persistently.

The uncle was so angry his beard almost stood on end. "You can't get past these three things, can you?"

"Anyway!" The man took a deep breath, deciding to get straight to the point, "What I want to say is that the challenge rules for the Goldenrod Gym... are quite unique."

"If she gets bored during a match, or if the challenger fails, she'll turn you into toys!"

"Turn into a doll?!"

The three of them spoke almost in unison.

I immediately recalled Miss Joey's words, "I haven't seen the challenger return."

All eyes immediately turned to the doll on the table.

The uncle nodded heavily.

“That’s right, they…were all trainers.”

"Pikachu?!"

Pikachu was so startled that its fur stood on end, and it jumped onto Ash's head, staring warily at the toys.

"But don't worry, they'll turn back on their own in a couple of days."
