The latest issue of the [Pokémon Street] column event invites Trainers who have obtained Badges to be interviewed.
The name of this column activity also has a title:
"Goldenrod Radio Tower Interview: Champion Ash's Passionate Journey to the Johto Region!"
As the studio lights of Goldenrod Radio Station came on, the lively Pokémon theme music played in the background.
Inside the studio, Walnut and Ash were already seated.
Celebrity announcer Hu Tao wore headphones and spoke to the audience in a very professional manner:
"Dear listeners, welcome to our special event of today's [Pokémon Street] column"
"Today we invited a Trainer who received a Badge. He is a very special and amazing Trainer!!"
Even though this was just inside the studio, there were only Ash and her, some staff, Ash's two companions Misty and Brock, and the Goldenrod gym leader Whitney who came to join in the fun.
Besides, even if there were no other spectators, Walnut still smiled sweetly:
"This Trainer just defeated Whitney at the Goldenrod Gym and got a regular Badge!!"
"Moreover, he is also the champion of this year's Kanto Region Pokémon Official Alliance Indigo Plateau Conference!! The champion of the Pokémon P1Fighting Contest!! The champion and honorary trainer of the Pokémon Orange Islands Orange Alliance Winner's Cup..."
After hearing so many titles, even Hu Tao herself, who already knew some of them in advance, showed a look of surprise on her face.
These are just the championships of the more well-known competitions, especially the championships of the two Alliance regions, which are sufficient enough to be the most sufficient achievements and resumes for guests.
Not to mention that Ash also won the Pokémon Chase Conference, the Tauros Festival Conference, the Pokémon Fire Fighting Competition, etc.~~~
Normally, the invited guests are not important enough to introduce in a grand manner as "Six Countries".
Only then will we introduce some of his flashy achievements, such as his outstanding results in some small competitions.
Even so, winning a championship is already an event worth writing about.
Not to mention some slightly well-known events, there are many small regional events that some listeners have never heard of.
But here in Ash~~~
On the contrary, those other well-known tournament champions are not worth introducing.
It's not that it doesn't have any weight, but it's totally unnecessary!!
There is no championship that is more valuable than the championship of the official Alliance competitions in the two major regions!!!
Ash can be said to be the most high-profile and influential interview trainer that Hu Tao has come into contact with in recent times.
Even, she invited Ash here, which could be said to be Ash giving her face and helping her!!
Therefore, Hu Tao, who knew this in his heart, was also very serious.
Let us welcome the champion Trainer from Pallet Town... Xiao————Zhi——!"*
A studio dub of the audience cheering, plus Ash's Pikachu's iconic "Pikapi!" voiceover.
Well, now everyone knows that Ash's standard companion is the Pikachu that always follows him around.
"Hello, Host, and hello, everyone~"
Ash was smiling and greeting everyone there. He also didn't see the audience, but he managed his expression very well.
"Pikapi!"
Pikachu responded at the appropriate time.
Celebrity announcer Walnut: "First of all, Ash, congratulations on winning the Goldenrod Gym! Gym leader Whitney's Miltank is a Rival that gives many challengers headaches. How did you formulate your strategy?"
Ash's tone was very relaxed: "The main thing is to carefully discover the rhythm and inertia of its rollout, observe calmly, formulate corresponding countermeasures in your mind, and then believe in the strength of your Pokémon, so that you can fight calmly and win the game!"
It is very standard and official, and no one can find any fault with it.
If it was the original Ash, he might have said something like "Haha, actually Pikachu's Thunder Shock didn't have much effect on Miltank at the beginning!", "We were able to win the game because of the special training between Pikachu and I!", "This is our unique rhythm" and so on.
Kurumi followed with a look of admiration: "As expected of a champion trainer, Ash, you are able to improvise and perform on the spot, which is an ability that many trainers lack. No wonder you can become a champion."
These remarks are blatant flattery and hype.
Fortunately, Ash had experienced such occasions many times before in Kanto Region, so he accepted all the compliments without hesitation.
Walnut continued: "As the Conference Champion of the two official Alliance events, what are your thoughts and experiences, Ash?"
Ash thought for a moment and said, "As for my feelings, winning the competition is the best reward for the Trainer's travel, hard work and training.
It is also a recognition of the Pokémon's training results.
I believe that every Pokémon Trainer who embarks on a journey should have a dream of becoming a champion."
Walnut nodded repeatedly: "That's right! The Conference Champion of the Regional Alliance is a great achievement for Trainers... "
At this point, Kurumi's eyes rolled. "And Ash, you've already won two regional conference championships. Your strength is undoubtedly amazing!!"
"So besides your strength, what other reasons do you think played an important role in helping you win the championship?!"
"The reason why it plays an important role~~~"
Ash thought for a moment, well, I can't say that I have a cheat, right?
"There must be something that I regard as a trainer's code that drives me to move forward."
Ash said seriously.
"Trainer's Guidelines?!"
Walnut's eyes suddenly lit up: "Can you elaborate on this?"
"First, always believe in your Pokémon and fight alongside them."
Ash whispered, "The trust between a Trainer and Pokémon is a force that transcends victory! No matter the odds or the enemy, never give up on your partners!"
"Secondly, never underestimate any Rival, even the weakest wild Pokémon. Even Magikarp has the potential to evolve into Gyarados. Respect every battle, stay humble, and learn from the battles."
"Then, uphold justice and protect weak Pokémon and humans! A truly strong person swings his fist to protect."
"Then, always pursue a higher realm, but never lose your original intention! Becoming stronger is not for conquest, but for a common dream! Refuse to rush for quick success and instant benefits "Believe in each other's bond and growth!!"
"Finally, leave your smile to your friends and devote your passion to the battlefield! Regardless of victory or defeat, cherish the journey with Pokémon and friends! If you lose, we train together, and if you win, we celebrate together - this is our path!"
Ash finished speaking in a resounding voice, and the entire studio fell silent.
The other staff members all raised their heads and looked at Ash, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts:
"As expected of the Pokémon Alliance Conference champion trainer."
Misty and Xiaogang, Ash's two companions, also showed happy smiles on their faces.
This is the Ash they know, who can have such cognition, say such words, and have such thoughts~~~
It is this kind of Ash that makes them trust, admire and firmly follow him on the journey!!
"So this is what Ash thinks..."
Whitney next to him also had bright eyes, full of stars, as she looked at Ash who was sitting there talking with a smile on his face.
Is Ash the one who can say such truth and has such cognition?
It is undeniable that after Whitney saw Ash's interview, she had a better impression of Ash.
I had a very good impression of him to begin with, and after witnessing his interview in person this time, I got to know him even better.
It also makes the viewing experience better and more profound!!
"..."
Walnut also chewed on these five sentences silently, and then said:
"Mr. Ash, these principles of yours as a Trainer have played such a crucial role in your career as a Trainer!!"
She grasped this point very keenly.
The most important thing for every interview broadcast is to find a hot spot in the program.
Only with explosive points can more listeners be attracted to listen, and only then can the listening rate be higher!!
Immediately, Kurumi started chatting with Ash according to the Trainer's principles.
They conducted a lot of questions and answers around this topic.
Hu Tao had a feeling that if this [Trainer Guidelines] was released, it would definitely attract a lot of attention.
As it turns out, the staff who monitored the listening rate also noticed the fluctuation and increase in the listening rate during this period.
Walnut's guess was correct, the effect is very gratifying!!
And maybe even the official Pokémon Alliance will get involved to support and promote this ┫[Trainer Guidelines Work!!
Walnut asked questions very enthusiastically and Ash answered them fluently. The whole Q&A process was very smooth.
In the blink of an eye, we have come to the end of this Q&A column, and have also entered the last few questions.
Kurumi put away the last page of the interview paper and winked at Ash:
"We mentioned partners before. Ash, you have captured many Pokémon during your travels, but why did you always choose Pikachu as your first partner?"
Ash answered without hesitation: "Because Pikachu is my first and most important friend! When we first met near Pallet Town, it was wary of me...
Ash laughed when he said this: "But now, we are partners who can trust each other with our lives!"
At this time, Pikachu also jumped onto Ash's shoulder and rubbed his face: "Pikachu!"
"It seems like you and Pikachu have become very close."
Walnut teased: "So, what's the next target? I heard that you have officially challenged the Johto Region Alliance."
Ash nodded directly: "Of course! After Kanto Region and Orange Islands, Johto Region Alliance, Silver Conference stage, my friends and I also stood on it.
Ash paused: "This time the goal is still the championship!!"
The background music also became instantly high at this moment.
"It's so exciting!"
Kurumi clapped softly and said with a smile, "Let's cheer for Ash and Pikachu's dream!"
"Finally, as a new trainer who debuted this year, you have achieved such great success. So Ash, do you have anything to say to the trainers in the audience?"
"And do you have any advice for Rookie Trainers who are about to start traveling or have already started traveling?"
"For Normal Trainers~"
Ash gave a thumbs up: "Whether we win or lose, we will do our best with Pokémon.
The best thing is to fight with all your heart! I will definitely be even stronger when we meet next time!!"
"And advice to Rookie Trainer~"
Ash smiled slightly: "Exactly, the same five suggestions."
"oh?!"
Under Kurumi's bright eyes, Ash said slowly:
"First, Bukong Qiong took over the gym (Snorlax liked it):
Second, special training with fire-type Pokémon on sunny days;
Third, be careful of collisions with groups of wild Tauros;
Fourth, grow with Pokémon instead of relying on catching evolutions;
Fifth... Rush into the waves with Pikachu!!"
"Pikachu!!!"
Amid Pikachu's cheers, the interview officially ended with Veilstone.
For the last five pieces of advice for Rookie Trainer, Ash actually referred to Ultraman's five vows.
In the final episode of Ultraman Jack, before Ultraman Jack's human form Hideki Go leaves, he asks Forrest Sakata to recite the Five Oaths of Ultraman.
Forrest refuses, and Hideki transforms into Ultraman Jack and flies to Soaring in the sky.
Forrest ran along the river while shouting out the Ultraman Oath, and promised to become a man when he grows up.
The first one: Don't go to school on an empty stomach, corresponding to: Don't challenge the gym on an empty stomach (thumbs-up by Snorlax).
The second rule: Dry your blankets in the sun when the weather is nice, which corresponds to: Do special training with Fire-type Pokémon on sunny days.
Rule 3: Watch out for vehicles when crossing the road, which corresponds to: Be careful of wild Tauros.
Article 4: Don't rely on the power of others, which corresponds to: Grow together with Pokémon instead of relying on catching evolutions.
Article 5: Have fun barefoot, corresponding to: Rush into the waves with Pikachu.
These five pieces of knowledge are, on the surface, common sense, such as paying attention to traffic safety and maintaining healthy habits. On a deeper level, they are metaphors for life philosophies, such as being independent and self-reliant, cherishing nature and friendship.
In particular, the fourth point, "do not rely on the power of others" especially reflects the core value of the Ultraman series - human beings must learn to grow themselves.
In the Pokémon world, Trainers are also warned not to rely too much on the power of Pokémon.
Trainers are also required to grow themselves.
I have to say that this revamped version of the [Five Great Pokémon Oaths] does contain a lot of philosophical meaning.
After this broadcast began to spread, it must be said that Ash's [Trainer Code] and [Pokémon Five Oaths] really attracted a lot of attention.
Less Trainer's attention.
5.8 Even the representative Trainers of the official Pokémon Alliance in each region, as well as the professors who distribute Pokémon to Rookie Trainers, were all amazed by this.
"This has a profound meaning for Pokémon Trainers who have just started traveling."
"These five oaths can help many novice Trainers avoid many detours on the road of Breeder Pokémon."
"It can also let them know what they need to pay attention to when they travel."
"I think it can help many families learn this before their children go on a trip!!"
Trainers and professors came out one after another, of course the most important one was Professor Oak's Laboratory in Pallet Town.
Professor Oak made no secret of his admiration for the [Trainer Code] and the [Five Pokémon Oaths].
As a result, the official Pokémon Alliance has begun preparing to promote these contents and meanings.
He even encouraged many Trainers to start figuring out the ins and outs of these five vows.
Everyone can understand the meaning they want from it.
For a time, the contents of these two clauses began to spread wildly and became popular within the Trainer group.
But these are all subsequent matters, and it happened on the day the broadcast ended.
"Today's interview was a great success!!"
Celebrity announcer Miss Nutella looked at Ash in front of her with sparkling eyes:
"Although I have heard a lot of legends about Mr. Ash before, I didn't expect that after actually meeting him, he would still exceed my imagination."
She chuckled and said, "But then I thought about it and I understood."
"If Mr. Ash didn't have such excellent ideas and connotations, how could he have achieved such great success?"
"Or rather, it is because you, Mr. Ash, are so good that you can say such thought-provoking words! This is a matter of course!!"
