"Then let me formally introduce myself."

"I am Ash, a trainer from the Kanto region, and I am currently challenging the Orange League."

"A trainer."

Gurusha recalled that before he came to Neporu Island, the president of the Padia League had come to him and asked if he would be willing to become the gym leader of the League gym.

Because Xiao Nanliang is not only a snowboarder, but also an excellent trainer.

However, Gurusha was more passionate about his skiing career, so he declined President Yaji's offer.

Gurusha, who has not yet been involved in any accidents, is a warm and cheerful boy, and has not yet turned into the ice block on Frost Mountain.

Therefore, Glussa is very talkative. After learning that Ash is a trainer, he took the initiative to chat with him about his experience in raising Ice-type Pokémon.

The two chatted happily for a while and exchanged contact information.

[Ding! Glusha: Affection +2]

When Ash and Grusha returned, they found Misty was still practicing, but she was already skating quite well.

"How about it? As the most beautiful girl in the universe, I can do it if I want to."

"That's fantastic! She's already at Pikachu's level." The two clapped together to cheer her on; they couldn't discourage the child's confidence.

"Ah...compared to Pikachu?" Xiaoxia slipped and fell to the ground after being praised like that; it seems she still needs more practice.

When he parted ways with Gurusha, he made a promise that he would invite Ash to his hometown of Padia if he had the chance in the future.

Ash readily agreed, as he never refuses to travel to different regions.

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

After a pleasant two-day rest, Ash and his friends bid farewell to Adam and Gurusha and embarked on their journey aboard Lapras once again.

Ash has now obtained two Gym Badges, and in the Orange League, he only needs to collect four badges to challenge for the tournament.

This means that the journey to the Orange Islands is already halfway complete.

"The next nearest gym is Yuzu Gym on Yuzu Island."

Xiaoxia sighed as she carefully gestured the distances on the map with her fingers.

"Sigh, it's such a long way again."

Now, Xiaoxia can only pray that they don't get lost again, while Xiaozhi is much more relaxed.

"Don't worry about Xia, we have plenty of supplies this time. Even if we get lost at sea for half a year, we won't be afraid!"

Furthermore, because I had previously bought Joey a speedboat, the system store also updated with new items.

Luxury speedboat; Price: 780 million/boat; Remaining: 13 (Specially modified, solar-powered! Includes the complete equipment from the legendary "Radish-Pulling King" Q, create your own love nest at sea!)

Although the description is strange and expensive, it can improve the lives of trainers and Pokémon when necessary, allowing them to rest.

If I really get lost again, I'll take it out and surprise Xiaoxia.

Furthermore, Xiaozhi has confirmed that as long as he has purchased a product in real life, similar products will automatically appear in the system store.

However, the price will be several times higher.

Xiao Zhi could only curse the system as a profiteer and vowed never to buy daily necessities from the system store again.

But at the same time, useful items are secretly marked so that they can be redeemed immediately when needed.

Hmph, what a two-faced man.

After hearing Ash's discouraging remarks, Misty puffed up her cheeks in anger.

"Several times before, if someone hadn't been in such a hurry to find wild Pokémon to battle, we would have reached our destination much sooner!"

"Miss Xia, you seem to be talking a bit too much."

She's not behaving properly at all. It seems Ash needs to use Water Soak on her Flower Leaf Stem and then give her a Giant Sword Assault to teach her a lesson.

After a warm and friendly interaction, Xiaoxia was utterly defeated and fled.

After being disciplined with a stick, Xiaoxia stopped thinking about getting lost and instead took out the Ugly Fish to dress it up.

Perhaps because of a shared childhood memory, Xiaoxia took good care of the ugly little fish after she captured it.

Every now and then, we'd take it out and dress it up nicely.

Now, Ugly Fish and Xiaoxia have become very close, and Ugly Fish will happily make noises when it is in Xiaoxia's arms.

"It seems Feebas likes having its appearance groomed." Ash also released his own Feebas to wash its body.

[Ding! Ugly Fish: Affection +1]

My favorability rating has really increased.

Since the Pokémon liked it, Ash bought a professional polishing and waxing set from the store and gave Misty a set as well.

Together, they gave Ugly Fish a deep cosmetic procedure.

After all, there's a mission to complete, and Ash hopes that Feebas can evolve soon so that he can have a powerful ally.

It's about how the ugly fish evolves.

Ash vaguely remembered needing an item with scales, but he searched the entire system shop and couldn't find any evolution items related to scales.

At the very bottom, I found a small line of text: "[You've reached the bottom. Reaching a new area will unlock new items. Please look forward to it!]"

"It seems I can't buy it directly from the system." But Ash remembered that making Feebas look pretty could also evolve it.

It's just about "becoming prettier..."

Looking at Feebas's stunning appearance, Ash felt immense pressure.

In short, let's raise the favorability and intimacy level first. Ash gave Feebas a thorough grooming and makeover.

"It still looks shabby, but it's much tidier!" It looks much better now thanks to Xiaozhi's efforts.

The ugly fish also wriggled its body, its mouth opening and closing and its eyes smiling.

[Ding! Ugly Fish: Affection +3; Intimacy +8]

Every ugly fish has a heart that yearns for beauty.

Just then, Ash released the Crystal Onix into the sea to roam freely, and suddenly several Magikarp swung up at it.

"Ah, oh!"

"Are there still many down there? Then please throw them all up!"

This is a task Ash gave to Onix, because it's too difficult to find Pokémon to battle on the high seas.

So Ash chose to take the initiative and send Onix to find prey and bring it back.

Ash is fine with any Pokémon; he's not picky anymore.

He'd be content as long as it made him smile at the sight of Pokémon.

"So great, so selfless, I almost cried!"

Ash immediately released Magikarp and Feebas to form a double-edged sword, and then activated his Fly skill to float to the surface of the sea.

Use the Pokémon that Onix throws up as a baseball to hit.

Bang, bang, bang! With his muscles taut, Xiao Zhi killed one kid at a time, he was already in a killing frenzy.

"The blade is drawn!"

"Salted fish chop!"

"Hahaha! Watch me combine my two swords and become invincible!" Ash hadn't felt this exhilarated in a long time.

Magikarp and Feebas's experience points are also increasing rapidly.

It's not that Ash didn't want to battle normally with Pokémon, it's just that his two Pokémon were incredibly weak.

Feebas has extremely poor attack power, and Magikarp can only use Leap, leaving Ash with no other choice but to accept this situation.

Although he had a lot of fun.

However, during the battle, Ash discovered that the calcium tablets Nurse Joy had been feeding Magikarp for so long were finally showing some initial effects.

Compared to other Magikarp, his was noticeably larger and fought much more powerfully.

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

[Ding! Ugly Fish: Affection +2; Intimacy +2]

After a lot of hard work, Ash's two Pokémon were exhausted, mainly with headaches, so today's training had to be temporarily suspended.

The Crystal Onix poked its large head out from under the sea surface, indicating that the Magikarp below had been mostly defeated.

"Woo, woo?" (There are still some left, should we catch more?)

"Anything else..."

Opportunities to hunt monsters on the Orange Islands are rare, and Onix was very lucky to find a large number of Magikarp this time, so it should cherish the opportunity.

At that moment, Ash suddenly remembered that there was one guy in his current team that he hadn't released to battle yet.

Chapter 137 Snorlax Who Can Do the Butterfly Swim

"Go, Otter! This is your first appearance, so do your best!"

Ash hasn't used it much since he caught it.

The main problem is that there are too few opportunities to farm monsters in the Orange Alliance; they don't get many chances to appear on the high seas every day.

Now is the perfect time to battle Magikarp, a weak opponent.

"Rice wine, rice wine?" The water otter, who had just appeared, was a little confused.

At this moment, Onix throws out several Magikarp.

"Otter, defeat that Magikarp!"

"rice wine!"

The otter, realizing what was happening, immediately patted its little chest to indicate that everything was fine.

Then he leaped off the dragon's back and jumped into the pool. Immediately afterward, he panicked and frantically pounded the water as if he were drowning.

Ash was dumbfounded. "Am I hallucinating? A Water-type Pokémon drowning?"

The water otter, caught in a splash, was swept away by a group of Magikarp's tails and was completely disoriented, suffering a successful defeat.

Xiao Zhi frowned, clearly caught off guard.

Xiaoxia, who had just finished dressing up Feebas, happened to look up and saw this scene. "Ah, just like my Psyduck, it can drown too."

"It's already being compared to Psyduck, how pathetic Oshawott!"

"Hey, Ash, what do you mean by this?!"

Using flight, I flew over the water otter and lifted it up.

The little otter had been knocked unconscious by the blows, but was given some medicine to wake it up.

"Rice wine~ Rice wine~" The otter hugged Ash's arm and cried as soon as it woke up.

Xiao Zhi could only offer some words of comfort, but he still couldn't believe his eyes.

When we put it in the nearby water, the otter really started splashing around as soon as it touched the water.

This time, Ash saw clearly that Oshawott would keep its eyes closed when it went into the water because it was scared.

Is this really a weakness that Water-type Pokémon should have?

"I feel like all my Water-type Pokémon are pretty weird." Ash bent down and gently stroked Oshawott's head.

"Is it because of something that happened in the past that you have a lingering trauma?"

The little otter shook its head. "Rice wine, rice wine." (No, it's just scared.)

Left with no other choice, Ash began to train the otter, the first step of which was to make it open its eyes in the water.

The little guy initially tried to refuse, but couldn't resist Ash's pull and was forcibly taken into the water with him.

With Ash by its side, the otter was less afraid and stopped thrashing around, but its eyes remained tightly closed.

Ash tried to open its eyelids, but as soon as it opened its eyes, the otter immediately nervously used a move.
