Chapter 82 Mewtwo's Invitation
Today is a picnic day with Xiaoxia.
In the beautiful countryside, set up a parasol, take out a table, and lay out delicious food.
Feeling the sea breeze blowing in from the side is also a kind of enjoyment.
If there are no Pokémon nearby that are constantly using moves.
"Ash."
The jet of flames hurtled towards Xiaoxia, turning her hair into an afro.
"Ash!"
"Sorry, sorry." Ash's enthusiasm has been completely ignited by the upcoming tournament, and he has so much energy that he can't seem to release it all.
So she thought of bringing her Pokémon out for training, and Misty just brought her along because she was worried she'd be bored.
Ash currently has six Pokémon with maxed-out stats in both Abilities: Pikachu, Lucario, Clefairy, Beedrill, and...
Mighty and Super Iron Tyrannosaurus.
These Pokémon can all receive the attribute boost from Ash Ketchum, making them even more powerful, stronger, and more formidable!
Ash's main Pokémon, but there are still too few of them, and he has always wanted to add more.
Charizard, Primeape, Bulbasaur, and Squirtle all have Senses scores of 90 or higher.
We can take advantage of these two months of training to see if we can raise their favorability and intimacy levels to the maximum.
That would greatly expand Ash's pool of potential main Pokémon, with Charizard and Bulbasaur currently being the most promising contenders.
With all this in mind, Xiao Zhi just wants to find someone to fight!
Generally speaking, the most convenient place to find Pokémon battles is in Professor Oak's backyard.
Professor Oak threatened to kill himself if Ash dared to cause trouble in his backyard.
There was no other way but to go out and find wild Pokémon and battle with wild trainers.
"Sigh, if only an opponent would come to us willingly."
Just then, a voice came.
"I heard there's someone here who has eight Gym Badges. Ash from Pallet Town, is that you?"
"I challenge you!"
A muscular young man wearing a red headscarf and carrying two strings of Poké Balls arrived at Ash's campsite.
"It really appeared!" Could it be that the God of Muscles responded to me?
The reason is that it's very rare for someone to get all eight badges, and Ash and Gary's reputation has already spread throughout Pallet Town.
Even now, people are actively coming to challenge us.
However, when the other person saw Ash taking off his shirt and forging with a giant barbell similar to the one Zoro used when practicing swordsmanship, his voice grew softer and softer.
"You've come at the perfect time, I accept!"
"No—no, I'll try again next time."
The young man on the other side seems to lack willpower.
"Hmph, trying to escape!"
Seeing that the young man seemed to be backing down, Ash flew up and landed cross-legged on his back, firmly pinning him down to prevent him from escaping.
Anyone who challenges me, Ash, will not escape, not even a Rattata!
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have achieved the achievement: Strongman Locks Up Men: Forcefully changed the thoughts of human males 50 times!]
[Rewards: Alliance Coins +500; Free Attribute Points +3; Orator Trait Bonus (Increased influence on males!)]
"50 times, who were the previous ones?" Ash thought carefully for a moment, "Oh, James."
"Never mind, let's fight!"
"Yes~" Because of Ash's power, the young man had no choice but to obey.
"Charge, Donka!"
"I choose you, Bulbasaur!"
Donphan is rare in the Kanto region, and Ash let his opponent go first to see how good this Pokémon was.
"Use scrolling!"
This Pokémon, which looks like a short-legged elephant, lightly jumped and curled its entire body into a ball, with thick armor extending from its nose to its tail covering the entire surface of the ball.
"Interesting, Bulbasaur dodges Solar Beam."
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"
Donphan's roll was child's play for Bulbasaur, who easily leaped up to dodge the attack.
Its back began to accumulate the power of the sun's rays, and now, under the blazing sun, the energy was quickly fully charged.
The beam of light struck Donphan, and with just one hit, the opponent's Pokémon lost its ability to battle.
"So weak."
[Ding! Bulbasaur: Affection +2; Intimacy +1]
However, as long as Bulbasaur is happy, the opponent's second Pokémon quickly entered the battle and turned out to be a Machamp.
Ash was excited to see the other's monstrous strength and muscular physique.
"That muscle is pretty impressive."
Machamp charged in and used Brick Break, but Bulbasaur nimbly dodged it.
"Bulbasaur uses Leaf Blade!"
Unable to dodge in time, the Mighty Bulbasaur was struck by its Razor Leaf Blade.
The superhuman strength collapsed to the ground.
[Ding! Bulbasaur: Affection +1; Intimacy +1]
"sad!"
"Ah, no, that's not right." Ash suddenly realized that it wasn't his own super strength.
"It's all for show, how can it be so weak?"
Moreover, judging from his emotional state, the opposing trainer wasn't holding back, which shows his true skill level.
No wonder so few people have collected all eight badges.
The repeated defeats enraged the young man on the other side. He forgot his fear of Ash and released all three Poké Balls he had on him.
"What?! They actually want to gang up on me!"
Ash, who spends his days hunting wild monsters with his Pokémon, was one day surrounded and attacked by others.
"Haha, this is really interesting. Bulbasaur, use Solar Beam again."
The energy of the sunlight swept across, and the Golem, Slug, and Moth on the opposite side were quickly and completely defeated.
"Damn, damn, damn!" The continuous winning streak made Bulbasaur very happy.
[Ding! Bulbasaur: Affection +3; Intimacy +3]
"This person is so unskilled, yet he dares to challenge us," Xia, who was drinking tea and enjoying the scenery, couldn't help but complain.
At this moment, Bulbasaur, which had won several consecutive matches, began to change, emitting a dazzling white light.
"It actually evolved." Ash was both happy and a little sad, and he stopped listening to the "Cao Cao Cao" (a type of short story) from then on.
The evolved Venusaur is much larger than its pre-evolution, with blue-green skin and huge flower buds blooming on its back.
My legs have also become thicker than before.
Venusaur: Affection +1; Intimacy +2
[Venusaur: Affection: Friendship has reached maximum!]
[Rewards: Alliance Coins +1200; Attack +2; Skill: Photosynthesis]
"Great, Venusaur!" Ash exclaimed excitedly as he picked up the enormous Venusaur and tossed it into the air repeatedly.
The young man was so frightened by Ash's actions that he didn't dare to move. After recalling his Pokémon, he knelt quietly to one side, waiting for Ash to ask him a question.
But because of his arrival, Bulbasaur not only successfully evolved but also reached the maximum level of both of its senses, Ash considers this person to be his lucky star.
They gave him medicine to cure his Pokémon and 5000 League Coins, and then the young man left with the medicine and money, looking completely bewildered.
However, while Ash was battling an unknown youth, a Finch with a camera captured the entire scene from the sky.
On a new island far from Pallet Town, which was originally an experimental site for creating Mewtwo but was later destroyed,
Now, a sinister-looking castle with a predominantly black color scheme has been rebuilt on the site of the former research institute.
Inside the castle, in a room with multiple rows of monitors, each screen shows a trainer battling another trainer.
Sitting in front of these monitors is a pink and white Pokémon that looks like a standing cat.
The screen it's currently staring at is the screen showing Ash in battle.
Standing next to Mewtwo was a woman whose entire body was completely covered up.
"Why don't we send an invitation to the master as well?"
The big cat waved its paw in agreement.
Soon, a Dragonite wearing a hat sped towards Ash's location from inside the castle.
