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

Xiaoyao clutched her stomach in disappointment, looking around the silent living room, but then Xiaozhi suddenly looked up.

"No, an exceptionally large amount of energy is coming."

Sure enough, a bag of snacks suddenly appeared out of nowhere and hit Xiaoyao on the head.

"potato chips?"

Then another huge pile of snacks rained down from above, more and more, like a relentless downpour, quickly filling the entire room.

"Wow! These are all the latest snacks! Jirachi actually fulfilled his wish for a small victory."

Haruka and her brother immediately plunged into the sea of ​​snacks and began to devour them, their eating speed putting Professor Oak to shame.

These two siblings probably have enough appetites to eat a whole cow in one meal, especially Xiaoyao, whose appetite seems to be almost as big as Xiaozhi's.

"It's true that competitive eaters tend to gather around competitive eaters."

"But now is not the time to talk about this, Jirachi, stop, stop now!"

Seeing that the snacks had flooded the entire living room, Professor Birch had no choice but to quickly "swim" out of the sea of ​​snacks and wave to Jirachi to stop his powers.

The playful little star, upon seeing Professor Birch's disheveled state, landed on Ash's head again and waved happily.

After a while, Jirachi finally stopped using his ability while cheerfully shouting "Dinner, dinner!"

It really does behave like a playful child.

However, unlike the others who were still basking in the joy of discovering that Jirachi could grant wishes, Professor Birch's expression changed drastically after casually picking up a bag of snacks.

"The words on this bag of cookies... why do they look so familiar?"

"Ah! Aren't these all my treasured snacks? I hid them in a secret warehouse in the backyard, far from the research institute. How did they get found?"

Upon hearing this, everyone picked up the snack bags to check, and sure enough, they saw Dr. Birch's name on the packaging.

"It turns out that Jirachi brought over all the snacks that Little Birch had collected nearby. That gave me quite a fright."

Oki almost thought that Jirachi really had the ability to create these snacks out of thin air.

Jirachi, completely unaware of the trouble it had caused, was simply spinning innocently around Professor Birch's head, making Professor Birch unable to bring itself to scold it.

We could only ask Ash and his friends to help move these things aside.

"Seriously, Doctor, you actually have so many snacks hidden away. It's really not like you at all."

"Uh...hehe, it's just a hobby." Dr. Oda Birch gave an embarrassed, awkward laugh.

No wonder he's so well-off despite studying Pokémon in the wild every day; he's actually a hidden, avid snack lover.

"But it seems that the rumor that Jirachi can grant any wish is untrue," Professor Oak noted in his notebook.

But then Ash suddenly spoke up, offering a different perspective.

"Professor Oak, I think that rumor might be true."

He had just clearly captured the energy flow when Jirachi used its power; it was able to connect with the power of the stars high above through the eye on its abdomen.

"The reason Jirachi didn't create directly but instead used spatial teleportation to indirectly fulfill its wish was probably because it lacked sufficient energy."

"If it were during the time when the Millennium Comet descends, it might actually be able to fulfill most of the world's wishes with its enormous energy."

Even though Jirachi was so weak at the moment, Ash was still very shocked by the energy it had generated just now.

Although we don't know Jirachi's limits yet, its ability to teleport for even a moment is already far more powerful than the teleportation device Ash bought from the system shop.

No wonder Butler wanted to seize Jirachi's power to revive Groudon; every Mythical Pokémon should be taken seriously.

"Really? That's amazing."

Professor Oak trusted Ash's words and immediately pulled Professor Birch to Jirachi's side to record it.

After that commotion, the already limited energy of the comet fragments was quickly depleted.

Jirachi suddenly felt sleepy.

It felt that time had flown by too quickly compared to before, and it hadn't had enough fun yet, so it was on the verge of crying.

"Silly thing... Jirachi is so sleepy... I don't want to sleep..."

Unfortunately, Jirachi couldn't resist its instincts, and it immediately slumped onto Ash's head and fell asleep.

Seeing that its body was about to burst into light and turn back into a crystal, Ash quickly lifted Jirachi off his head.

At this moment, the Arceus Plate inside his body rotated almost imperceptibly a few times, and the white light on Jirachi's body instantly dissipated.

Its dormant crystallization was forcibly terminated by another higher-dimensional energy.

Ash looked at Jirachi in his palm with surprise, "I didn't expect the Arceus Tablet to have this kind of ability."

As expected of something from the creator god, Jirachi, though it never woke up again, at least it still has that soft and cute appearance.

"She's asleep, looks so well-behaved, so cute."

Jirachi's dreamy state stirred up May's maternal instincts.

"Ten minutes is that fast? I haven't even become good friends with Jirachi yet."

"There will definitely be other opportunities in the future, Xiaosheng."

Ash thought for a moment, then took out a Poké Ball and pointed it at Jirachi.

Because Ash was nearby, Jirachi, which was fast asleep, did not put up any resistance and was easily captured by the Poké Ball.

"Let's leave it in the Poké Ball for now; that's the best way to protect it in our daily lives."

"I promise you'll be able to come out and play with me again in the future, Jirachi."

Ash made a promise to Jirachi's Poké Ball and put it away safely.

This can be considered Jirachi's little attempt to get some fresh air using the comet fragments before he officially wakes up.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have achieved the achievement "Second Mythical Pokémon!": Successfully captured your second Pokémon (Go become the strongest Mythical Pokémon and show Nintendo that we are the champions!)]

[Rewards: Alliance Coins +40000; All Attributes +1; Golden Crown +1]

"I just tamed another mythical beast, that's all. The dead system isn't even pretending anymore."

This is the world of Pokémon, don't make it so I can't play Pokémon!

"It looks like Ash is all set to take care of Jirachi."

Professor Oak wasn't surprised at all to see Ash so easily capture Jirachi into his Poké Ball.

After all, he's a man universally acknowledged as being favored by legends, so he can't be judged by common sense.

Professor Oak then completely entrusted Jirachi to Ash, and subsequently handled his second mission in the lab.

That was to hold a lecture for the children in the neighborhood. As a die-hard fan of Professor Oak, Baku naturally threw a tantrum to stay and listen to the lecture before he was willing to leave.

Professor Oak did not disappoint Brock; his lecture was excellent, instilling Pokémon knowledge in the children while making learning fun.

These children were subtly influenced by Professor Oak and developed an even greater love for Pokémon.

It must be said that Professor Oak is truly an amazing person, making indelible contributions to the peaceful coexistence of Pokémon and humans in the world.

He also brought out the three starter Pokémon from the Kanto region to show the children how they differed from the starter Pokémon from the Hoenn region.

Sho finally got to touch Squirtle, Charmander, and Bulbasaur, fulfilling a wish he had made when he traveled with Ash.

However, as a fan, Max is just like Professor Oak, and he is especially "loved" by Pokémon.

Every Pokémon he touched attacked him, and Max was fortunate enough to experience the attacks of all three Kanto starter Pokémon.

I believe he will have a deeper understanding of these three Pokémon.

Even Haruka benefited greatly from Oki's lecture.

"Sister, are you really comfortable listening to a lecture with a bunch of kids?"

"What does it matter? There's no shame in learning knowledge with anyone."

Xiaoyao is now incredibly eager to learn the knowledge she once lacked.

After Professor Oak left the next day, Max and May were finally satisfied and set off with Ash.

To reach Yuenwood City, they then headed east along the Orange Blossom Forest.

They happened to pass through the territory of the Lizard King's people and took the opportunity to visit the giant tree that had been rejuvenated.

They also met with the group of tree geckos from before.

Upon seeing his old friends, the Lizard King, though not saying anything and still maintaining a cool and arrogant demeanor, clearly conveyed its joy to the little AI.

Elder Treecko was very pleased to see that Sceptile was not suffering any hardship and was doing so well with Ash.

Before Ash and his friends left, they even forced a seed on Ash.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the item "Miracle Seed": Pokémon holding this item will have their Grass-type moves' power increased by 20%.]

Although this seed is not as powerful as the one on the Lizard King, it is still very useful as a rare item that can enhance Grass-type moves.

Ash readily accepted, and then left a whole year's worth of Pokémon food for the Treecko population before departing.

Unfortunately, none of these Treeckoes wanted to leave Petalburg Woods, otherwise Ash would have really wanted to build another Treecko base next to Squirtle Island.

Thanks to the blessing they received from the giant tree, Ash and his friends did not get lost at all during their journey through Petalburg Woods and made it out smoothly.

Just when Ash and his friends thought their journey to Lilycove City would be as smooth as their journey in Petalburg Woods, an unexpected incident occurred.

A pair of sharp eyes quietly watched Xiaoyao from the shadows.

Chapter 457 The King of the Forbidden Forest

"Ugh, why are you only arresting me?"

"Ash, look! The one that kidnapped my sister is Skarmory! That's rare!"

"Yes, it's quite rare to meet someone here."

"Is this the time to be lamenting? Come save me, you guys!"

In the sky, May, whose waist pouch had been grabbed by Skarmory, shouted loudly to her two unreliable companions below.

This is a completely new forest that Ash and his friends have arrived at since leaving Petalburg Woods.

Then, after leaving the Orange Blossom Tree, they got lost again.

Moreover, this time it was particularly serious. Not only was the navigator unusable, but even Ash's compass was completely broken.

The compass spun wildly like a stopwatch, and now they were completely unable to tell which way to go.

Feeling that he had attracted something evil, Ash immediately took out Jirachi from its sleep and burned incense to pray to it.

After praying that he wouldn't get lost for too long this time, he immediately went off to outwit the navigator.

This dead forest was both gloomy and desolate. With the surrounding tranquil atmosphere, Xiaozhi felt that the trees here were three shades darker than those in other forests.

Even Ash felt a little uneasy after staying there for a while.

The forest here looks quite pristine, with no trace of human activity whatsoever; it feels like a place where you could get lost for quite a while.

This is definitely not a place to stay for long; we must leave immediately.

Just as Ash was getting frustrated and preparing to physically repair the navigator, the forest gave them a pleasant surprise.

Suddenly, a scaly bird darted out from the depths of the forest, grabbed Xiaoyao's waist pouch, and took her into the sky as prey.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Zhi unusually did not rush to the rescue immediately.

"Haruka, this Skarmory isn't very strong. You'll have to handle it yourself. This is a test!"

Given May's current strength, Skarmory can't hurt her.

Ultimately, this situation arose because she was always lax in her defenses, which gave the attackers an opportunity.

We need to teach Haruka a lesson, otherwise she won't know what to do if Ash isn't around and she gets ambushed again.

It's not good to rely on Ash for everything; this is all for May's growth.

What a profound love!

"Ugh, how annoying!"

Hearing Ash say that, Haruka pouted angrily.

She knew that Xiaozhi's decision wouldn't be easily changed, so she had to take it seriously immediately.
