Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

.......

In the arena, Ahong took out a Poké Ball and recalled Butterfree.

He looked at the Poké Ball and said softly.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Then he looked up and gazed at Ash across half the field.

"You're really strong, Ash!"

Ash was also putting his sleeping Pidgeotto back into its Poké Ball when he heard this and looked up.

"You too! That hypnotic powder trick worked really well! I almost thought Pidgey wasn't going to make it!"

Ah Hong chuckled but didn't say anything more.

He put Butterfree's Poké Ball back on his waist, then unfastened another Poké Ball from the buckle on his lower back.

"Well then... I'll leave the rest to you, Renn!"

Ahong threw out the Poké Ball.

The red light bounced off.

A yellow mouse with short limbs and a lightning bolt-shaped tail landed on the grass.

Round, black eyes, rosy cheeks, and two tufts of messy hair on its head swaying in the wind.

It's a Pikachu!

Ash's gaze fell down to the Pikachu that had been squatting at his feet since the beginning of the game.

Xiao Zhi asked a question.

"...Do you want to go?"

"Pikachu".

Pikachu glanced at the field and shook its head with unusual determination.

Although they are all mice... there are differences between mice.

As a top-tier player, it disdains to bully the weak!

The rat from Northeast China won't make things difficult for the rat from Northeast China!

So let's replace them with a different batch!

Xiao Zhi: "........."

His lips twitched, but he didn't say anything more.

After all, the main reason for asking was that he was afraid Pikachu, who hadn't been able to participate in the competition, would cause him trouble again.

Now that A has been stacked, Xiao Zhi reaches for his waist.

"Then it's you!"

With a powerful throw, the Poké Ball spun and flew towards the field.

“Jenny—!”

The turtle's cry was heard before it even arrived!

Before the red light had fully dissipated, a loud voice rang out.

The visitor was none other than the captain of the Squirtle team, who had recently come here with his family while on a mission!

"It's...it's Squirtle!"

Ahong was a little surprised; he didn't even know that Ash had this Pokémon.

He quickly adjusted his thinking and pointed to the center of the field.

"In that case, Renn! We'll use ten... um?"

"Jenny!"

Before he could finish speaking, Squirtle simply stretched out a claw and made a clean stop gesture.

Ah Hong instinctively shut his mouth.

All eyes of the audience were focused on the turtle.

Squirtle calmly retracted its claws and rummaged around in its shell for a while, as if searching for something it carried with it.

A few seconds later, it hooked its paw and pulled out a pair of extremely stylish sunglasses from the crack in its shell.

The lenses are gradient black, the frames have a frosted metallic texture, and each side is decorated with a small rivet that sparkles in the sunlight.

Squirtle flicked its wrist upwards, and the sunglasses landed securely on its nose.

He put his hands on his hips.

Immediately afterwards, a water gun sprayed right into Pikachu's face!

"Jenny!"

All right!

Let's begin! I, the captain, now give you permission to make your move!

259. Leave professional tasks to professionals!

With Captain Squirtle's rallying cry, the Squirtle minions on the sidelines went completely wild.

"Jenny!"

"Jenny, Jenny—!"

Seven or eight turtles with shiny heads were huddled together by the railing of the stands, their claws gripping the railing and their heads craning out one on top of the other.

The slightly larger Squirtle in the lead even pulled out a small flag from somewhere.

A pair of sunglasses was drawn crookedly on the flag, which was held above its head and waved wildly.

Captain Squirtle caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye, and his eyes behind his sunglasses narrowed slightly.

Not bad!

No wonder he's the vice-captain I personally promoted! He's so sensible!

It subtly puffed out its chest, making even the curve of its shell appear more upright.

Seeing this, the audience in the stands also started a heated discussion.

"What a cool turtle! It even fights against its own type!"

"And look at that guy's pose with those sunglasses, he's even more cocky than Crocodile!"

"These sunglasses are really stylish. By the way, where can I buy the same pair?"

"You got the same ones? If I'm not mistaken... those sunglasses are a limited edition collaboration with the champion from the Carlos region this year, and they've been sold out for ages!"

"What?! This powerful turtle also has such good taste!"

In the VIP seats.

Kona bit her lower lip hard.

If it weren't for Cloyster helping its trainer maintain a good image, she probably would have been grinning from ear to ear in public.

After all, Ash has two Water-type Pokémon!

Two!

And add one more... well, a half-water-type teammate.

With such a passion for water-based elements, such keen tactical awareness, and such a flexible personality... it's no wonder that Ash Ketchum is my student!

Ryan finally recovered from the shock of being splattered in the face with water.

In a corner where no one cares.

After all, they are the three starter Pokémon native to the Kanto region. Compared to Pikachu that can be found on the roadside, everyone will definitely have a stronger affection for Squirtle.

Raine shook his head, his ears flapping to shake off the water droplets, then raised his front paws and vigorously wiped his face.

The electric sacs on his cheeks began to crackle, and golden sparks exploded all over his body.

A mere bald turtle dares to bark at Pikachu?!

Where does the elemental advantage lie?

Unable to tolerate it any longer, Renn immediately exploded.

"Pikachu!!"

An electric current surged from its cheek pouches, enveloping the entire mouse in a crackling, electric light.

A bolt of lightning shot straight towards Squirtle!

But who is Squirtle?

He is the most proud turtle among all turtles, and the captain of the entire Squirtle team!

It's someone who has led turtles into battle and fought their way out of countless fights!

As the leader, it had already been distracted and noticed the Pikachu across from it that was about to get angry!

How could I possibly be hit by such a straightforward sneak attack!

Squirtle held up his sunglasses with one hand, and with a clean and crisp backbend, lightning grazed his belly and blasted a patch of grass behind him into a charred mess.

"Wow! That was such a cool dodge!"

"As expected of our turtle from Kanto!"

With a quick flip, Squirtle didn't forget to bow to the surrounding audience.

"Jenny! Jenny!"

Please excuse my poor performance, everyone!

Then, he casually spat out a mouthful of saliva...
