Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master

The bottom of the ice boat is smooth, but the surface of the skiing track is not smooth, making it difficult to control the direction.

"In that case, just make the track smooth, since it doesn't say you can't use skills."

In a flash of inspiration, Ash immediately picked up the Dragonair behind him and carried it to the bow of his ship, giving the order.

"Hakron uses Freeze Ray on the ground!"

This move successfully created a smooth ice city track in front of Ash, and his boat finally stopped slipping and continued to move forward at full speed.

"Oh, that's a good idea, but can Hakron last until the end of the match?"

Of course... yes, but Ash also cheated a little.

As the race progressed into the mountainside, the ground transformed into a completely rocky track with no snow accumulation, and Ash and Dan each slid off two different tracks.

At this time, Ash will secretly release his own Ice Beam when Dragonair releases it.

"The rules don't say it's not allowed!"

Who would have thought that humans could use skills!

Using the ice created by the Freeze Ray to ignore the terrain, Ash's hands swung wildly at an accelerated pace.

Finally, they successfully crossed the finish line ahead of Adam.

"Okay, thank you all for your hard work!" Ash jumped off the ice ship, picked up his Pokémon one by one, and celebrated.

[Ding! Hakron: Affection +2; Intimacy +2]

[Ding! Bat Niki: Affection +2]

[Bat Niche: Affection and intimacy levels have reached maximum!]

[Rewards: Alliance Coins +1200; Speed ​​+2; Skill: Air Blade]

After crossing the finish line, Adam looked at the track behind Ash with great surprise, "They actually used the Ice Beam to create such a long ice tunnel."

"Hakron's mastery of the freezing ray is unimaginable!"

He already suspected that Ash was throwing the game by sending Lapras into the first match.

Actually, it's mainly because Xiao Zhi is good.

“Well, in this round, you won and I lost fair and square. Here, this is the Wave Chaser Badge.” Adan took out a beautiful white seashell badge from his pocket.

It seems that gym badges in the Orange League are all made of seashells, which is quite unique to the region.

Ash took the badge from him and said, "Okay, I got the Surfing Badge!"

[Ding! Congratulations on completing the main quest: Surfer Badge!: Defeat Neporu Gym Leader Adam]

[Rewards: Alliance Coins +500; Special Attack +2; Free Attribute Points +3]

[When you have the Surfing Badge: Evasion rate increases by 5%; Skill duration increases by 5%]

"Evasion rate! Dodge quickly, my amazing move is getting a boost!" Ash was very satisfied with the badge bonus.

------------

After the match, in the gym's training area, Ash took out the secret calcium tablets he got from Nurse Joy of the Southern Island.

Now it's time to feed the two fish calcium supplements again.

While Nurse Joy's calcium supplements can be helpful when given to other Pokémon, they are most effective when given to Magikarp.

After all, it was specially made for Magikarp.

Moreover, Ash only took one can from Nurse Joy when he left, even though he now has a calcium supplement formula.

But the materials mentioned above are too difficult to collect, such as coral powder from some unknown reef or herbs from a mountain in Joey's hometown.

"What, what, what is all this?!"

After seeing the recipe, Ash understood that it was faster to just get it from Nurse Joy than to collect the ingredients himself.

However, because the materials are hard to find, Nurse Joy doesn't have many calcium tablets, and these are usually the medicine for Pokémon that are deficient in calcium.

So Xiaozhi only took a can of 100 tablets.

[Nurse Joy's Mysterious Calcium Tablets: Five tablets a day for ten courses of treatment. After consumption, there is a chance to increase the size of Pokémon by 30% to 300% (not for human use; requires continuous use without interruption; Magikarp is most effective)]

However, it's enough. Some other Pokémon don't want to grow bigger, like Pikachu, which doesn't want to get bigger.

Some creatures take a flexible approach, like Batliki, which is not suited to growing large.

So Ash decided to give the calcium tablets to Magikarp and Lapras.

Even if they weren't as gifted as the Magikarp that Joy raised from a young age, they should still be a size bigger than their peers.

At first, Ash's Magikarp didn't want to eat when he was fed it.

Finally, Ash, if you don't eat, I'll have to personally use my water gun to feed you!

Under such threats, Magikarp obediently submitted and swallowed the devil's gift.

Ash was about to leave the gym after feeding his Pokémon calcium tablets, but Dan called them back.

"We've finally arrived at a ski resort, why not give it a try? All the places on the island are my property, you can enjoy them for free."

Adan admired Xiaozhi, so he generously provided them with a two-day, one-night luxury trip.

"Let me take advantage of you" Xiao Zhi's favorability increased by 5. How could he refuse someone's kindness? He agreed on the spot.

I've never skied in my life, so of course I had to try it!

Moreover, thanks to Adan's hospitality, they can enjoy the ski resort here for free.

After changing into the ski suits provided by the dojo, Xiaoxia and I went to the back slope of Mount Neporu.

This is the most famous ski resort in the Orange League.

"Xiao Zhi, can you ski?"

Although they arrived full of excitement, Xiaoxia asked a question that struck at the heart of the matter.

"will not."

"I don't know either."

The two were stuck there awkwardly, with only a few tourists in the venue and nowhere to find a coach.

They could only try by supporting each other, and then two large snowballs appeared on the ski slope.

"Ha, ha, ha~"

A clear, melodious laugh rang out, and a person dressed entirely in professional attire arrived at the bottom of the slope to help Ash and his friends, who had transformed into round, chubby figures, stop.

"Do you need any help?"

They peeked out from the snowball and nodded quickly.

The stranger then very kindly began to teach Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia how to ski.

It must be said that the kind-hearted professor was very skilled; the knowledge was easy to understand and the teaching was hands-on.

At this moment, Ash's strong muscle control came into play again, even though it was his first time skiing.

But Xiao Zhi quickly mastered the knack and balance, and skated quite well on the track, occasionally even performing a few difficult tricks.

Xiaoxia would still fall down from time to time, and then keep rolling her body into a snowball and hitting the tree.

"Like Psyduck."

Xiaozhi helped Xiaoxia up, and couldn't help but laugh at her "cute" appearance.

"How is it similar?"

At that moment, her Psyduck automatically jumped out of its Poké Ball when it heard someone calling it.

As soon as she stepped onto the snow, she tilted her head in confusion and suddenly her foot slipped, just like Xia, and she tumbled down the ski slope.

It rolled and rolled until it became a big snowball, and only stopped after it crashed into a tree.

"Aren't they exactly the same?"

"Damn it, there's no way to argue with that!"

"Pikachu~!"

Just then, Pikachu, riding a smaller snowboard with Togepi, swaggered past Misty.

"Ah, even Pikachu can do it~" Xiaoxia was deeply shocked. Was she really useless? She was clearly very strong.

Seeing this, the kind coach gracefully glided over to Xiaoxia's side to comfort her.

"Don't be so disappointed. It's normal for a beginner to not get discouraged. Just practice more."

Then she looked at Ash.

"And you are a genius. No matter what technique I call it, you can master it so quickly. Are you interested in becoming a skater together?"

Of course, the coach said it in a joking tone.

"Want to have a match with me?" Seeing Xiao Zhi's current level of proficiency, she felt the urge to compete.

"A match? Great! I won't refuse any kind of battle!" Battles between humans are battles too.

The two then began a chase on the ski slopes.

Xiaoxia and Pikachu were left behind. Xiaoxia continued to practice the basics while Pikachu taught her.

Although the kind coach was extremely skilled, Ash kept up the chase and eventually used a rock as a springboard to overtake her from the air.

Most people wouldn't be able to do this unless they have a terrifying ability like Ash's, which allows him to maintain balance in mid-air.

The kind coach lost, but she wasn't angry at all. "It's really interesting. I didn't expect to meet someone as talented as you here."

She deftly removed her glasses and mask, revealing her face hidden beneath a thick scarf.

It was a truly exquisite and beautiful face, with soft, flowing light blue hair and long eyelashes that accentuated her equally blue eyes, which seemed to sparkle.

"For a beginner to be able to do this well is a good thing. It's a good thing you don't plan to participate in professional snowboarding competitions, or I would be in real trouble."

Ash was stunned by that face, which immediately reminded him of the first time he met Misty.

The kind coach reached out his hand to Xiaozhi.

"Hello, my name is Gurusha, and I am a skier from the Padiya region."

"I just finished a season and am here on vacation."

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have triggered a new side quest, "Let him awaken the femininity within him!": Please raise Glucha's favorability to 20.]

[Rewards: Alliance Coins +3000; Speed ​​+2; Attack +2; Special Item "True Seeker's Juice" (Drinking it will cause a magical event; the effect is permanent)]

"Hmm! What's with this mission name?" Xiao Zhi was shocked. "Could it be... Nanliang?!"

"Are you kidding me! This body type, this face..."

Ash now understands how other Pokémon feel when they see his Gardevoir.

However, he controlled his facial expression exceptionally well, showing no sign of anything amiss, and calmly extended his hand to shake hers... no, to shake his hand.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Gurusha. Thank you for your previous help."

Xiao Zhi's actions instantly increased Guru's goodwill towards him. "This man is extraordinary!"

Surprisingly, I didn't call him "Miss" the first time I saw his face.

[Ding! Gurusha: Favorability +10 (Little Nanliang is almost moved to tears)]

Chapter 136 Ugly Fish Wants to Make a Comeback

"Don't you have any questions about my appearance?"

"Of course not, this is normal, I've seen many like this."

For example, Gardevoir, Gardevoir, and Gardevoir.

"Really? I really hope I can meet him."

Gurusha was overjoyed to find that there were others in the world who could empathize with him.

"Yes, if there's a chance next time, I'll definitely let you meet."

After all, I don't have it with me right now.
