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

"Hmph, I'll show you now."

May went out of her way to bring Ash and Pikachu together.

The beautiful girl is about to begin her performance.

She took out her two Poké Balls.

"Ultimately, what Pokémon Contests are all about is the beauty and coolness of Pokémon!"

"Especially when the Pokémon has just come out of the Poké Ball, this is a crucial scoring point in the first review."

"Therefore, I'm currently practicing a graceful entrance..."

After saying that, Xiaoyao took the two Poké Balls and spun around gracefully like a swan, then threw them.

"Look, everyone, come up on stage! Torchicks and Wurmple!"

After being released while being spun around, the two little creatures immediately looked around curiously. The most energetic Torchic was the first to run off on its own, while the Slug stretched and then did nothing more.

"What is this entrance?" Ash and Max asked at the same time, making May extremely embarrassed.

"No, no!" She quickly picked up the two Pokémon and turned their little faces to face her with a serious expression.

"Turkey, Wurmple, didn't I tell you yesterday that when these come out, you should circle around once, and then whoosh..."

May stomped her feet on the ground, cutely demonstrating her moves to the Pokémon.

The two Pokémon immediately started spinning around like her, and this time they did it quite well.

Overall, it was still not impressive; the Torchic even knocked over a nearby Stingray while spinning around.

Xiaoyao is a little embarrassed now.

"Haha, it's not perfect yet, we're still practicing."

"So you still need to keep trying." Xiao Sheng had already guessed that her older sister was unreliable.

"And sister, I won't comment on the creative aspects."

"But you should know that you can't send two Pokémon at a time in the Hoenn League's Grand Contest, right?"

"Oh, is that so?"

Unfortunately, May didn't know that she really had the same style as Ash when he first came out to challenge the gyms, and even their tendency to make amends was very similar.

"Well...maybe it will come in handy someday."

Anyway, May was very satisfied with her idea, but then Ash spoke up.

"May, I think it wouldn't be good for trainers to dance and show off during the first round of auditions."

In Xiaoyao's demonstration just now, her excessively beautiful face completely attracted the attention of the viewers.

"I believe that even if the Pokémon successfully complete their performance according to your plan, Torchic and Wurmple, whose attention has been diverted, will not leave a deep impression on the judges."

"This will prevent you from passing the first round of review."

"Ah, even you say that, Ash."

"Please, big sister, the main character of the Pokémon Contest has to be a Pokémon!"

"Uh……"

May was deeply hurt after being rejected by both Ash and Max.

"How could this happen? I even came up with the dance moves."

Seeing her like that, Xiaozhi felt he couldn't hurt the child's confidence any further, so he quickly signaled to Xiaosheng, who was still about to deliver the final blow, with his eyes.

"Xiaoyao, your dance moves just now were actually very beautiful, and the creativity was excellent."

"All we need to do is adapt it into a dance move that allows Pokémon to showcase their charm."

"really?"

"Of course!"

This is not a compliment from Xiaozhi.

After all, Haruka is known as the Hoenn Dancer, and her dancing is absolutely delightful to watch.

As soon as Ash praised her, May immediately perked up.

[Ding! Xiaoyao: Affection +2]

"Those dances were actually created based on our usual fighting style, with a touch of softness added."

For example, during the scene where Ash is "overbearing trainer's forced love, where can wild Pokémon escape?", he throws out a spinning kick...

Even the way the trainers dance together when they appear is because May's daily battles are all about the trainers and Pokémon performing heart-shaped combo moves.

So she instinctively felt that trainers and Pokémon should be on stage together during a performance!

Perhaps Haruka and Musashi have a lot in common.

After listening to May's explanation of her inspiration, Ash silently wiped away a cold sweat, realizing it was still his fault.

"Xiaoyao, this is a very good idea, to flexibly apply daily experience to the game... You can continue to explore this route."

"Just remember, the premise should always be to showcase Pokémon."

While some regions may not mind having more screen time for trainers, the Hoenn region, the birthplace of Pokémon Contests, does not.

The grand competition here is more rigorous and more fundamentalist.

"In short, no matter what kind of competition it is, there will always be no problem in training your Pokémon well!"

Although Ash's main profession is not a trainer, he is, after all, a senior figure on the path of training, and May is more likely to listen to his words than Max.

"Hmm, I understand, training Pokémon is the key!"

May's Pokémon are doing very well now, after all, Ash usually helps take care of them.

All Pokémon food was formulated by Ash and Brock together, and it's absolutely delicious and healthy.

As a result, each of their Pokémon is big and muscular with glossy fur, making them a pleasing sight to behold.

Are they physically and mentally incredibly healthy...?

"Is something wrong with the serpent beetle?"

Although Haruka's stinging beetle is usually very greedy, it is still quite lively in its daily life once it has eaten its fill.

But today, ever since it stretched, it seems to have been unusually quiet.

Even when Ash lifted it up, it didn't move at all.

"Speaking of which, this child has been listless for the past few days, and has only eaten three bowls of feed, whereas it usually eats eight bowls..."

"She's eating way too much! How come even her Pokémon is such a big eater!"

"I want you to take care of it!"

"Anyway, I'm really worried. Is Ash sick?"

"It shouldn't be."

Ash observed that Wurmple's aura was quite stable, much stronger than when May had first caught it, and it seemed very healthy.

Just as Ash was about to conduct a further inspection, a strange noise suddenly came from behind them.

Then a strange bulge on the beach rushed straight toward their tent, and in an instant, Ash and his friends' well-secured, high-class tent was reduced to rags.

The strange thing rampaged across the beach with the remaining tent wreckage, moving with incredible speed and power, smashing even boulders in its path.

"Wow, this tent is so expensive!"

"We just washed the clothes!"

The tattered tent and the clothesline tied to it were now rolling around on the beach, infuriating Ash and Max.

"What is this strange thing? Is it a Pokémon?"

Xiaoyao immediately became excited, hugged the stinging beetle to her chest, and quickly posed with her snow-white hands for the camera.

"Xiaoyao Expedition Team, today we encountered a strange phenomenon on the beach that defies common sense. Our expensive tents and clothes have all been damaged."

"Is all of this a distortion of human nature, or did Ash go too far by blasting fish on the beach, thus incurring the wrath of the sea spirits?"

"This is the beach for special training!" Ash gave May, who was cosplaying wildly, a chop to the neck.

But he didn't rule out the possibility of being retaliated against by the sea spirits. Feeling guilty, the muscular man quickly sensed something.

"Yes, it's definitely a Pokémon!" Ash was relieved.

If you encounter it at the beach, it should be a Water-type Pokémon.

"Pikachu, use Electric Ball to stop that guy!"

"Pickup!"

The unknown Pokémon moved extremely fast, and Pikachu's still-unskilled Electric Ball failed to hit it.

Several energy balls crackling with intense electricity exploded on the beach, instantly turning the once smooth seashore into a pitted mess, but they just couldn't hit the target.

"The tussock beetle uses silk-spinning!"

At this moment, May quickly brought her Pokémon to help.

The listless Wurmple finally raised its head after hearing its trainer's command.

It seemed to casually spit out a thread from its mouth, yet it precisely hit its target speeding across the vast beach.

"Great job, Stingerfly!"

"A very powerful silk-spinning technique; the worm's body is indeed very healthy."

Moreover, it was a hidden gem; I never expected its accuracy to be so good.

However, that mysterious Pokémon was incredibly strong. Even though Wurmple used all its strength, it still managed to pull May away along with it.

Ash and the others quickly rushed over and grabbed May's waist, pulling her back with all their might.

With Ash joining the effort, even the strongest creatures on the beach were immediately pulled out of the ground.

"It's out! What is that thing?!"

"Hey, hey, hey~!"

"how is this possible?"

The Pokémon that broke out of the ground looked like a lobster magnified ten times, with a grinning look in its eyes, as if destroying Ash and the others' things earlier was just a playful act.

"That's a lobster soldier! That speed and power just now was actually produced by a lobster soldier!" Xiao Sheng was stunned and momentarily speechless.

Ash reacted quickly: "Pikachu, use Volt Ball again!"

"Pickup!"

Now that they're in mid-air, the lobster minions have no way to dodge Pikachu's electric ball attack anymore.

Pikachu, determined to regain its lost face, quickly raised its tail high and launched an electric ball the size of a basketball.

This time, the hit was precise and the effect was outstanding.

But to Ash's surprise, the Garchomp, who was stiff from the electric shock and looked like it was already cooked, recovered quickly after landing.

Completely ignoring the threads still wrapped around its body, the lobster soldier once again rampaged across the beach.

Once on the beach, the lobster soldier seemed to become even more agile, and before Xiaoyao could react, the stinging worm was snatched away by it.

"Ah, my stinging beetle!" Xiaoyao hurriedly chased after it.

But in his haste, he almost fell.

Seeing its trainer in danger, Wurmple finally mustered all its strength, its whole body bursting with dazzling light.

"It has evolved."

Seeing this, Ash finally understood.

"No wonder the spiky worm was so listless before; it was because it was accumulating energy for evolution."

At this moment, the silk-spinning power of the worm suddenly increased, and the lobster soldiers were all stunned in surprise.
