I think this must be a joke.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"How could they come to a small place like ours?

Besides, aren't they traveling here to become stronger?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Some felt this was a gimmick deliberately put out.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Others felt that Ash and his friends were truly here; in any case, everyone had their own thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ash and his friends didn't know what these people were thinking; they only knew that the situation ahead was a bit beyond their expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Are we really going to battle such huge Pokémon? And their names are so long; these are relics left over from ancient times.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>When they went to the collection hall and saw the introductions for those Poké Balls, they were all dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I also think it's very rare, but if we can win this, it will definitely be something to be very proud of.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"After all, there has never been a situation like this before, don't you think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Hearing Ash say this, the few of them nodded quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I also think what he said makes sense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"If I didn't have much confidence before, now this feeling has become very strong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The two spoke with complete seriousness, and while the others felt it was strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>They still nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>On the day of the match, they arrived early in the morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>When they got to the scene, they found it already crowded with many people.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Curator Liu was very happy to see this.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He had originally thought this would only bring in a small amount of income, but he hadn't expected to sell so many tickets.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Everyone, wait patiently. In another half hour, all the competitors will come out.

I've wanted to see them in person for a long time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Never mind you, I want to as well. If I could see them and spar with their Pokémon, what an honor that would be.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Everyone was very happy at the thought of this.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ash and his friends didn't know what was happening here, and they were a bit surprised when they went out and saw the audience.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Why are there so many people this time? I remember when we competed in other places last time, this kind of situation didn't happen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ash stared below and couldn't help but ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Why did you call so many people over?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although they felt this Curator Liu was strange, he could give them a chance to compete.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>That was already quite good.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"What do you mean 'called so many people'? They insisted on coming to support, and you are indeed very remarkable, aren't you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>If he had heard this at any other time, Ash would definitely have retorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But now he also felt that what he said was not bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Fine, then we'll do as you say, but the rules of the match must be set according to standard conventions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Some martial arts gyms have their own rules; Ash and his friends only learned this after traveling for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But now they had already seen quite a few.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Rest assured, I certainly know how to do it, and if I don't follow those regulations, I wouldn't feel at ease either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He finished speaking with complete seriousness, and the other two nodded quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The match officially began; the first to take the stage were Pikachu and another Pokémon.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Huai Te glanced at her sideways and continued: \"Are you still feeling uncomfortable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I am...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ash pouted, saying with a face full of resentment: \"My whole body hurts, especially my butt!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hmm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Huai Te looked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ash continued: \"I think I must have bruised it; ouch, it hurts so much...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Huai Te raised his hand to touch her back, gently kneading it as he said: \"Let me see!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ash winced: \"Sss—it hurts!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Huai Te didn't pull his hand away and continued to knead.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He said: \"If it really hurts that much, let's go to the hospital and get an X-ray!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"No!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ash refused flatly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She said: \"I'm not going.
