"When I think about it carefully, it seems to be closely related to this little brat~ meow."
"It was like this at Mt. Moon, and then it was like this at Pokémon Village, and then it was like this at the Sant'Anno, and then it was like this at the Rumpelstiltskin..."
The more I talked, the more I felt something was wrong.
Why does it seem like... this little brat is everywhere ruining their good deeds?
They couldn't help but look at each other, feeling quite miserable.
"All in all, I have discovered...
Jessie's eyes were firm, "Never confront that brat again!!"
"That's right!!"
James nodded vigorously. "Every time I run into this brat, nothing good ever happens!!"
"And the Pokémon he has are all very strong, and it's hard to deal with them at all~ meow!"
Meowth also crossed his arms and agreed with this.
"It's a thankless task to fight against such a guy!!"
The three of them spoke at the same time, thinking so in tacit agreement.
"So, I'll try to avoid this little devil as much as possible in the future!!"
"Yes, this little brat is very evil!!"
"But what if, by chance, we run into him again during our next move? Meow?"
After Meowth said this, the scene fell silent for a few seconds.
"He won't keep pestering us like a dog-skin plaster, will he?"
James said weakly, lacking confidence.
"That shouldn't be the case…"
Jessie was also a little hesitant. "But if it really comes to that, can't we just retreat?"
"Well, this is a solution..."
Meowth thought about it and it seemed that there was really no other solution.
After all, the opponent's Nidoking is too scary and unstoppable, not to mention the other Pokémon.
"This is called cutting losses in time~ meow!"
"That's it!!"
The trio uttered Meowth's classic lines in unison.
They decided not to have any more involvement with Ash and left quietly.
Well, originally in the TV series, they had to follow Ash no matter what, and the indestructible cockroach kept following them.
Now, he seemed rather uninterested in Ash and was avoiding him from a distance.
But this is a good thing for Ash.
Although the Rocket trio are not bad people by nature, they are like flies, jumping out from time to time to annoy you and thinking about you, which is annoying enough.
This size is just right now!
Thus, Ash and his group continued their journey without noticing the changes and existence of Team Rocket.
Soon, we arrived at Rainbow City.
~~~~~~~170~~
Rainbow City, also known as Celadon City.
The color of the beetle's body turns golden green and golden purple due to the different angles of light, which is like a dreamlike rainbow, hence the name.
This is also one of the largest cities in Kanto Region.
The Battle Dome in Battle Frontier is also located near here, and is also closer to Lavender Town.
Here, there is a huge department store, which is the tallest building in Celadon City and the largest shopping mall in the entire Kanto.
There is also an electric playground, which is the best place to play.
The prosperity is almost visible to the naked eye. Even Lijia, the leader of the Rainbow Gym, has a side job in this city.
"It has a very fragrant smell!"
As soon as they entered the city, they smelled the scent of perfume in the air.
She runs a perfume shop in Celadon City. She speaks politely, but cannot stand insults about the perfumes in the shop.
In the original version, Ash was kicked out of the store because he turned his nose up at the perfume and was not allowed to challenge the gym.
From Ash's perspective now, the stupid things in the original version were indeed self-inflicted.
He said some very bad things in someone else's perfume shop.
The proprietress Lijia simply kicked him out of the store, which was very tactful and polite.
If he were the boss and gym leader, he would have given him a good beating long ago.
Fortunately, Ash would not do such a stupid thing now.
After giving Pikachu, who loved the smell of perfume, to Xiaogang and Misty, the two of them, as a Pokémon, started to go shopping in the perfume store.
Ash also went to the Pokémon Center in Rainbow City to pick up the things delivered by Professor Oak.
"You are Mr. Ash, right?"
Nurse Joy from the Rainbow City Pokémon Center very gently took out the things that Tian Kun had given her.
"This is the [Life Orb] and the [Thunder Stone]. Please check them."
Ash received all the gifts sent by the Pokémon Alliance and Devon Company.
From the quality point of view, it can be seen that it is not an ordinary Normal product, but a very good one.
With the huge bonus from Alliance and the prize for winning against Gary, he is now quite wealthy.
"You can't wait any longer, right, King Duo?"
Ash smiled and patted the Nidoking's Pokémon ball on his waist.
As early as when he got the [Life Orb], Nidoking's Pokémon ball shook.
Obviously, Nidoking also noticed that this thing was very useful to it.
"Right away, I'll put it on you and try out the effects..."
Ash said as he walked towards the Pokémon field in the back.
"Please stay, Mr. Ash."
Nurse Joy suddenly called him, "There are some things here."
Seeing Ash looking at her with a puzzled look, Nurse Joy explained gently:
"When Professor Oak delivered the stuff, he left us a message asking you to call him back."
"Is that so? That's as it should be."
Ash had no objection. Since he got something from the Professor, he had to say thank you to him.
This is a matter of basic etiquette.
"besides..."
Nurse Joy saw Ash nod and smiled again, but this time, she was much more capable:
"Professor Oak should have told you before that the Pokémon Alliance will do an interview with you, Mr. Ash, right?"
"Well, it seems to be the case."
"Since you know about this, Mr. Ash, that's great~"
Nurse Joy smiled and took out a pile of supplies from under her counter:
"It just so happens that Mr. Ash will be the interviewee for the next episode of [Pokémon: Trainer's Path], right?"
Notebook, recorder, microphone...
Looking at so many professional equipment, Ash looked at Nurse Joy in front of him in some astonishment.
"XLIV..."
"As you can see, Mr. Ash, I am Joy, the reporter for this interview."
Nurse Joy showed a sweet smile on her face.
"In addition to our duties at the Pokémon Center, we can also take on other jobs.
As she said this, she winked at Ash.
Ash:
That's right, he still remembered that Nurse Joy also had the duty of serving as a prosecutor.
For example, in the later Dark City, the Yas Gym and the Kaz Gym in the city fought each other in order to compete for the qualification quota of the gym recognized by the Alliance.
They also hired traveling trainers as thugs, causing chaos.
Nurse Joy will be the prosecutor.
Later, Nurse Joy, who served as the investigator, was responsible for determining whether the Rock gym at Xiaogang's home was qualified.
Also, if Ash remembered correctly, Nurse Joy seemed to have a Latias with her.
It looks like Nurse Joy is very busy~~~
But fortunately, their professional level is undoubtedly strong.
The interview with Ash about his journey as a Pokémon Trainer went smoothly.
At least, there were no weird interviews with questions like "Really? I don't believe it~"
Nurse Joy politely told Ash to make sure to buy the next issue of the Pokémon Alliance official magazine and ended the interview.
Ash then contacted Professor Oak.
"It seems that you have successfully arrived in Rainbow City and got the things I gave you.
In the picture, Professor Oak was not cooking instant noodles this time.
He was practicing calligraphy, splashing ink on a white piece of paper.
And the content of the writing...
"I just had a burst of inspiration and created a good piece of Senryu. I'll read it to you..."
Professor Oak was excited and tried to clear his throat.
"No thanks, Professor Oak."
Ash interrupted him and said, "You know I don't like Kaname."
"Thank you very much for your help this time. I have received the reward."
Professor Oak's face fell when he was interrupted.
Ash is good at everything except appreciating poetry. Sigh, it turns out that people have different hobbies after all~~~
"That's right."
Professor Oak shook his head and got down to business: "The Gyarados you sent here has been a bit unruly lately."
Crash.
As soon as Professor Oak finished speaking, he heard the sound of water splashing and roaring coming from the yard behind.
And the sound seems to be...
"Gyarados和Krabby?"
Ash did hear it.
"Yes, those are the only two Pokémon you put here."
Professor Oak was a little helpless, "Gary has already collected 45 of them, but Ash only gave me two.
"Excluding the Pidgeot who is currently protecting his Pokémon in the Evergreen Forest, and Squirtle who is working hard in the fire department, there are only your two Pokémon in my huge yard."
"I'm pursuing excellence, and there will be more Pokémon sent to me later."
Ash changed the subject: "Did Gyarados and Krabby fight?"
"Well, Krabby is fine. He is an obedient child. He knew how to make tea and fetch things for me before."
Professor Oak first praised Krabby, and then started to criticize Gyarados:
"But your Gyarados is not easy to deal with. Not only did he occupy the backyard pool when he came here, but he also often fought with Krabby."
"Although, it didn't do much good...
After Professor Oak's explanation, Ash also understood.
After being teleported here, the Gyarados that evolved from [Final Kick] felt that it was no longer beside Ash, and it stood up again!!
His hot-tempered nature began to show.
And Krabby doesn't tolerate it at all!
Under the training suggestions given by Ash's system, the original malnutrition was gradually improved.
In addition, he was well treated by Breeder here at Professor Oak, so his own strength cannot be underestimated.
Even though Gyarados is evolved, but it has not obtained Breeder,
Compared with Krabby, it is actually slightly inferior.
Therefore, he is often beaten by Krabby using his two large claws and crab fists.
But Gyarados is a novice who loves to play.
Plus, they are all Water Type Pokémon, so it likes to Taunt Krabby quite often.
This also makes Professor Oak's backyard very lively.
"It seems that we need a calm person to discipline the child and improve Gyarados' character."
Ash rubbed his chin, then smiled and said, "That's right, I have a suitable candidate here."
"Nidoking, I'll leave Gyarados to you. Is that ok?"
"Nido~~~"
Don't worry, it's easy to discipline a disobedient little brother!
Nidoking obtained the [Life Orb], and its strength rose to a higher level.
As for the use of props such as [Life Orb], Professor Oak, an excellent researcher and former trainer, will definitely give great coaching advice.
In addition, Nidoking has practiced enough at present, and it takes some time to digest and consolidate the results of practice.
And along the way, Ash didn't seem to be in much danger.
So let's leave the opportunities for adventure and training to the younger generation.
Anyway, the Gengar that was training in Lavender Town was strong enough to protect Ash.
"Nidoking?"
When Professor Oak saw the Pokémon information sent back, interest immediately appeared on his face.
"I just said you didn't send back many Pokémon, and yet you gave me such a big surprise in the blink of an eye."
"Don't worry Ash, leave this big guy to me!"
Professor Oak was very interested in studying Nidoking, and of course he did not forget Ash's request for the use of [Life Orb].
He is a professional in this area!!
In this way, with Nidoking in charge, the rear area can be said to be completely safe and secure.
After getting the reward he deserved, Ash went straight to the Rainbow Gym.
And coincidentally, Misty, Xiaogang and the others were also here, hosted by Lijia, the owner and curator of the perfume shop.
Then, Ash took the opportunity to challenge directly.
Lika, who had no conflict over the perfume, accepted the challenge naturally and treated it as a normal gym match.
"I can only use three Pokémon. Is that ok?"
At the battle site of the Rainbow Gym, Erika, who had changed into a battle uniform, was very quick and decisive.
"Of course there is no problem with that!"
The Pokémon on Ash's body have already been ready to go.
When both sides are standing on the battlefield~
"Wait, that little devil looks like he's carrying a Pikachu!?"
In the corner of the gym, three guys sneaked in stealthily.
When I heard the noise and saw this scene, I almost screamed out.
"Why is it him again? I can't get rid of him. He's haunting me like a plague god!!"
Jessie was chirping in frustration.
"I'm a Trainer, isn't it normal for me to challenge a gym?"
James said weakly: "It was us who sneaked into the gym to steal things, as if we were chasing after him..."
"That's not important~ meow!!"
Meowth retorted:
"If we steal the legendary perfume hidden somewhere in this gym and sell it, we'll definitely make a fortune!!"
"That's right, then we can pay off all our debts in one go!!"
"And with that perfume, all men in the world will be crazy about me!!"
"I have delicious cat food~ meow!!"
The trio imagined a bright future and quickly began their infiltration plan.
However, while sneaking in, the trio also made up their minds:
"We must not alarm that little devil~!!"
"No good will come of it if he finds out!!"
"I don't want to feel that bad anymore!!"
"Just sneak in, get the things, and then sneak out.
"Make a fortune without anyone noticing~ meow!!"
The trio started their theft stealthily.
The Rainbow Gym focuses on Grass-type Pokémon.
Therefore, the Pokémon that Erika has are mainly grass-type.
The first Pokémon she took out was...
"Tangela, it's up to you to take the stage!!"
Bang!
Tangela, her body covered with blue vines and only one big eye visible in the darkness, appeared in the venue.
"Ting~ Tangela is a vine-like Pokémon. Its body is covered with blue vines. Its true appearance is unknown. It is said that its vines will continue to grow.
