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

Ash has so many amazing qualities now.

In just one morning, Xiaoyao was surprised as many times as Xiaoxia was surprised in a week.

"Hey, even if I tense all my muscles to the maximum, they won't be as thick as the elephant legs you're gesturing about."

"Okay, okay, to be honest, this is just an ordinary skill that I comprehended after I mastered my physical body to an extraordinary level."

"Let me tell you, Haruka, it's perfectly normal for a seasoned trainer to have perfect control over every single muscle!"

"Right, Pikachu?"

"Pickup!"

Is this normal?

"Of course!" That's how Ash felt.

In the magical world of Pokémon, it's perfectly normal for a muscular monster over two meters tall to instantly transform into a well-proportioned teenager.

Anyway, it's much more normal than things like a broken fishing net trapping a Suicune or a small fishing rod catching a Kyogre.

"This new girl isn't good enough."

She doesn't have a big heart at all, even though she's supposed to be an athletic girl.

(Xiaoyao: Do ​​you have some prejudice against athletic girls?)

"really?"

"Of course, not only that, I can also do that."

Seeing that the other party still looked suspicious, Xiaozhi decided to let Xiaoyao see everything at once, so that she wouldn't be surprised again later.

By subtly adjusting his muscle structure, Xiaozhi made his facial lines appear smoother while keeping his features unchanged, and his overall demeanor changed instantly.

His originally masculine and strong face was transformed into a delicate and handsome appearance.

He still looks like Ash, but you can tell he's become even more handsome.

"So handsome!"

[Ding! Xiaoyao: Affection +1]

"So, this is the power of muscles, isn't it amazing!"

"Wow, that's amazing! I want to learn too. Please teach me, Teacher Xiaozhi!"

"Then let's do some frog jumps together!"

"I refuse."

"Hey!"

"Haha~"

Seeing Ash's exasperated expression, Haruka suddenly raised her snow-white hand to cover her mouth and let out a silvery laugh.

[Ding! Xiaoyao: Affection +1]

Although Ash's attempt to recruit a new workout partner failed, May has finally stopped asking Ash all sorts of questions about his unusual behavior.

Instead, she started staring intently at Xiaozhi's face, even though it was the same sunny smile as yesterday...

Ash in his fierce form only makes May feel that he is approachable, while Ash in his handsome form makes May suddenly blush and her heart race.

"Sigh, it seems that this style is still more popular with girls."

"Muscles... lost!" Ash cried sadly.

It is mainly because Ash's charm and personality can be best displayed in his handsome form.

Thanks to his exceptional control over his muscles, Ash's every transformation perfectly embodies the beauty of nature.

This is the ultimate form that is absolutely suitable for survival and caters to the aesthetic preferences of the vast majority of people.

However, after watching Xiaoyao for a while, she immediately shifted her gaze and continued to admire the surrounding scenery.

"What a strange girl."

But she even triggered a legendary quest, so there must be something unique about Xiaoyao that I haven't discovered yet.

But Xiao Zhi looked left and right, and apart from that pretty face and eye-catching big toe, he still couldn't figure it out.

"She's definitely very pretty, a 99 out of 100, on par with Xiaoxia. But it's not like just being pretty guarantees you'll trigger a legendary quest..."

"Could it really be because it's a big dumpling!" (That's right!)

Whether a task is triggered or not actually depends on Ash's "heartbeat index," but unfortunately, he's someone whose brain is invaded by his muscles.

Xiao Zhi, who is oblivious to matters of the heart, will probably never realize this in his entire life.

Without the stark numerical data presented to him, Xiao Zhi wouldn't even realize which girl liked him.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Zhi decided to give up.

"Ah, the system stuff is too complicated, whatever."

The super brain has already told Ash that whatever problem he encounters, he can solve it with super power; thinking too much is not suitable for him.

They immediately pulled Xiao Yao along and continued on their way, as they had to reach Guchen Town before dark.

But before they could travel for long, Xiaoyao was already exhausted again.

"Slow down, Ash."

"No, Xiaoyao, if you keep moving so slowly, we won't reach our destination by dark!"

"Ah, I wish I still had my bicycle at this moment."

"Uh." Ash and Pikachu paused in their steps.

"Oh, you're right. We should really slow down our journey."

"Pikachu".

"Hehe, that's right~" Xiaoyao skipped and hopped ahead again.

Ash then began to notice something unique about May.

This girl is quite independent and very self-centered.

Even if Ash activates his handsome form, using his charm and orator abilities to tempt her to hurry up, May will never easily change her mind.

"She was clearly a girl with very ordinary, even somewhat vulgar, hobbies, but surprisingly, her charm was completely ineffective against her."

If I say I'm going for a walk, I'll go for a walk, without wavering.

However, Ash doesn't dislike May.

After all, although she is self-centered, she is not domineering. She is very kind, optimistic and cute, and can get along well with Pikachu. She is much gentler than Misty.

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhi quickly stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder.

"Xiaoyao, since we've met by chance, I, as your senior, will give you some guidance."

"Since we'll have to take it slow anyway, let's do something meaningful."

"Oh, what is it?"

"That's of course catching Pokémon! The most important thing for a trainer is to capture new partners!"

This is what Ash was most looking forward to when he came to the Hoenn region; he still doesn't know where his new partner is.

After looking around, Ash successfully found a Pokémon that was perfect for a novice trainer.

"Take that Lulili for example."

"Ah, so cute!"

Following Ash's pointing finger, May saw an adorable blue water rat with a round, plump tail.

Faced with such adorable creatures, Xiaoyao, whose mentality was not quite right, finally began to have the will to fight.

"Alright, I must subdue it!"

Then Xiaoyao failed.

She first made Ash's vision go black, causing him to pull out a Poké Ball and throw it at Azur Lane, and unsurprisingly, he failed to catch it.

It was only after Ash reminded her that May remembered she needed to weaken the opponent's HP through Pokémon battles before she could catch it.

After that, Torchic was completely overwhelmed by Azul.

May, being a novice and lacking an advantage in Pokémon types, also had questionable command skills.

"No, May, we can't use Ember now, it won't be effective. Let Torchic use Peck!"

"No, no, no, we can't attack now. We need to make Torchic hide..."

"Oops, I made a mistake again. Torchic shouldn't act on its own; it should follow May's orders..."

May's first battle made Pikachu shake its head in disbelief.

"Pikachu~"

Ash felt that this was much more difficult than battling himself.

In the end, May still couldn't catch Azulli. Torchic ignored her commands and chased after Azulli all the way through the forest, unexpectedly ending up at Azulli's nest.

It was instantly killed by a water gun from its parent Marill, and only managed to escape safely thanks to Pikachu's help.

"Don't be discouraged. Remember how this battle felt. Everyone starts out in a mess like this."

"You've done a great job. Your teamwork with Torchic will only get better and better. Keep it up, May."

"Yes~"

Ash comforted May as he led her out of the forest and back onto the main road.

At this time, Ash always seems incredibly reliable, not only coming to the rescue in time but also helping May and the others analyze the shortcomings in the previous battle.

[Ding! Xiaoyao: Affection +1]

However, at this moment, the Torchic suddenly collapsed with a "Chama!" and Haruka quickly picked it up in concern.

"Turkey, are you alright?"

Seeing the flustered Haruka, Ash immediately comforted her and told her to calm down.

"If the trainer gets anxious at this time, the Pokémon's situation will only get worse."

"Don't worry, as long as you use a healing item on Torchic or take it to a Pokémon Center for treatment, it will be fine."

"Ah."

Under these circumstances, May finally agreed to take the plunge and ran alongside Ash all the way to the Pokémon Center in Old Town, where she handed Torchic over to Nurse Joy.

"Don't worry, there's no problem. Just let the Torchic rest here for the night."

"I'm counting on you for everything, Miss Joey."

After learning that Torchic was really alright, May finally felt relieved.

Then she tugged at Xiaozhi's sleeve.

"This is my first time at a Pokémon Center, Ash, you lead the way."

"You really know how to order people around."

However, since Ash decided to help May, he would see it through to the end. He personally showed May around the layout of the Pokémon Center.

Ash showed May around everything, from the free rooms for trainers to the all-you-can-eat restaurants and the lobby lounge where trainers could exchange information.

Ash used the Pokédex to open the glass door to the hall, and led May inside.

"A lounge for exchanging information... Will someone here tell you about nearby shopping spots, hot springs, restaurants, and the like?"

"Oh no, it's information limited to Pokémon!" Ash was immediately embarrassed and poked the little head of the person next to him with his finger.

This girl always seems to have such strange interests.
