Ash's Pokémon Travel Has Big Problems

"Woo..."

Suijun: Very energetic.

Emperor Yan and the Water God had approached each other without anyone noticing.

They looked at the evolved Pidgeot and Charizard and let out a low growl of approval.

Ho-Oh's grand will descended once more, carrying gentleness and recognition: "Chosen hero and your soulmates, you have proven each other's worth through your actions and growth."

"As a testament to and a gift of passing the trial."

"My Rainbow Hero".

"I give you my mark."

"At the time of death, that mark will bring your soul before me."

"You will not die until you die of old age, as long as your soul remains."

No matter how he is destroyed, as long as his soul remains, Ho-Oh can revive him.

This is the passive ability of the Rainbow Warrior.

And there is no cost involved; the cost of resurrection is borne by Ho-Oh.

This reward is indeed worthy of the difficulty of the Rainbow Warrior's Trial.

Besides this clear benefit.

When needed, Ash can also seek out Ho-Oh to help revive his other friends and family.

In short.

There's a reason this trial is so harsh.

Although Ho-Oh doesn't really care about the distortion of life and death caused by resurrection.

But just like Professor Oak struggles with whether or not he should live forever.

Many people actually feel that this shouldn't be done.

Therefore, this ability should indeed be limited.

As Ho-Oh spoke, Ash felt a slight warmth between his shoulder blades.

It was as if a warm, gentle flame had left an eternal mark there.

He can't see it, but the Pokémon next to him can:

A simple golden outline of Ho-Oh spreading its wings appeared behind Ash.

First, it emitted a faint iridescent light.

Then it slowly disappeared.

This is not only a symbol of honor, but also represents that Ash has officially gained Ho-Oh's recognition and become a true "Rainbow Warrior", establishing a connection with Ho-Oh that transcends ordinary people.

"Of course, your efforts also deserve recognition."

Ho-Oh's will swept over Pikachu, Pidgeot, Charizard, Misdreavus, and Golden Gyarados.

A few strands of the rainbow-colored divine fire surrounding Him separated and merged into the bodies of each Pokémon.

The electric arcs on Pikachu's cheeks became even more solid and golden.

The eagle's feathers seemed to have been carefully refined, shimmering with a faint luster.

The flames on the Charizard's tail burned more steadily and intensely.

The dream demon felt its ghostly energy becoming purer and more condensed.

Even the Golden Gyarados seems to be in better shape.

It's fair to say that everyone gained a lot.

The intense battles and joyful evolution have come to an end.

The sky was completely shrouded in night, and the stars began to twinkle.

On this land that has just been purified, no one feels darkness or cold; the air is filled with peace and a sense of new life.

“Screech—” Phoenix King let out a long cry, as if inviting.

Ash, suddenly inspired, laughed and shouted, "Everyone, let's go for a ride in the sky with Ho-Oh!"

"Pikachu!"

"Bi Diao!"

"Roar!"

"Mah-mah!"

"Hooo!"

The other members responded excitedly.

Even the largest Gyarados is only a tiny bit to Ho-Oh.

Ho-Oh gracefully lowered its head, and Ash easily leaped onto Ho-Oh's head.

Pidgeot and Charizard, one on each side, accompanied Ho-Oh as they flapped their wings, riding the night breeze and leisurely flying towards the brilliant starry sky.

Only Gyarados followed behind.

...Flying is indeed Gyarados's weakness.

As for Pikachu and Misdreavus?

Of course, Ash held her in his arms, and they sat together on Ho-Oh's head.

at the same time.

Within Black Cloud City.

Xiaoxia, Xiaogang, Miss Officer Jenny, and Miss Joey were standing together, gazing up at the sky that had once been a battlefield.

Although they were far away, the dazzling golden light that had illuminated the night sky and the constant energy fluctuations still made them tremble with fear.

Unfortunately, we don't know what was fighting Ho-Oh, but thankfully it seems the battle is over.

And it was Ho-Oh that won.

"Is the battle... over? Did Ho-Oh win?" Misty murmured, holding Goldeen, who had regained some of her strength.

"It must be true, that sacred radiance can't be faked." Xiao Gang nodded, his eyes still filled with shock.

"Ho-Oh is the greatest auspicious creature and symbol of faith in our Kanto and Johto regions. With His intervention, everything will be fine," Officer Jenny said with deep respect.

In the past, Kanto and Kanto were combined and called Kanto.

However, the place became too big and difficult to manage, and some minor issues arose, so they separated.

Kanto was divided into Kanto and Joto.

Miss Joy gently chimed in, "Yes, with Ho-Oh around, all disasters will be averted."

at this time.

Xiaoxia suddenly realized something and anxiously looked around: "Wait! Where's Xiaozhi? Why haven't I seen Xiaozhi yet?"

Xiao Gang frowned as well: "Indeed... we haven't heard from him since just now. But with Xiao Zhi's quick wit and strength, he'll definitely be alright. Let's search carefully..."

Logically speaking, now that everything is over, Ash should be coming to find them.

Even Joey and Officer Jenny came to meet them.

It doesn't make sense that Xiaozhi isn't coming.

Just when everyone was worried.

A figure appeared silently beside them, like a ghost.

The newcomer was dressed in standard ninja attire, with a sharp and capable appearance; he was none other than Akari, the Gym Leader of Fuchsia City.

“There’s no need to worry about that boy.” A-Ju’s voice was calm and composed.

“Mr. Aju!” Officer Jenny and Joey greeted him quickly.

Xiaoxia and Xiaogang also looked at him in surprise.

Aju waved her phone and took a picture of Ho-Oh in the sky: "He's fine... If you want to know why..."

He paused, as if organizing his thoughts, "I saw him heading towards Ho-Oh earlier."

This is both a lie and a lie.

Although A-Ju didn't see it with her own eyes, she did have sources to know.

Because he saw it in a mobile group chat.

The group that A-Ju was looking at was not Team Rocket's secret channel, but a small circle of gym leaders with special relationships, consisting only of Giovanni, Sabrina, Blaine, Lt. Surge, and A-Ju.

——Group: Black Justice · 5 people online——

Just recently, Sakaki sent a concise message in the group:

Sakaki @ All Members:

"Today's matter is quite important, so please pay close attention."

Sakaki had been observing the battle from afar, and he had access to extremely advanced technology... He even flew there in a large aircraft.

Taking a photo from a distance is still possible.

Giovanni: (Uploaded image: Ash standing on top of the golden Gyarados head, his profile reflected in the golden light of Ho-Oh)

Sakaki: The Rainbow Hero has been decided.

Giovanni: (Sent a text message containing basic information such as Ash's name and hometown, Pallet Town)

Lt. Surge: Holy crap?! It's this kid?! @Sakaki, are you sure you're not mistaken?!

Lt. Surge: Damn! He became the Rainbow Hero?!

M. S. S.: (Expression: Thunder Fist/Shocked)

Sabrina: ...

Naz: It's him.

Naz: ...That's really interesting.

Sabrina: (After a brief silence)

Naza: ...Looks like I made the right choice by stopping my precognitions...No wonder I chose you...Hehehehe...

Blaine: Oh? Newcomers from Pallet Town… Anyone from that old man Oak’s territory is bound to be something. (Expression: Flame/Thinking)

A-Ju: Message received.

Aju: I am in Black Cloud City, and I have witnessed Ho-Oh's miracle.

A-Ju: (Uploaded image: A golden Ho-Oh flying across the night sky)

A-Ju: This kid... is definitely extraordinary. @Sakagi, what's the next step?

Sakaki: So far, everything is proceeding according to plan.

Sakaki: The league has its own rules of operation.

Sakaki: We... just need to do our own thing.

Sakaki: The subsequent actions may change.

(System notification: Sakaki has logged off)

Sakaki still had many things to do, such as investigating the ice-type powerhouses in the capital city.

Although there was suspicion surrounding the target, Liu Bo.

However, Uncle Liu's reputation is a bit too good.

Therefore, Giovanni felt that more research was needed.

After Sakaki logged off, the entire group fell silent.

Although it seems a bit beneath the dignity of the dojo leaders to exchange confidential information in this way.
