Chapter 73
Saizo: "Slander, pure slander, I'm not stupid, I'm a very shrewd Trainer, no one can cheat badges from my hands!"]
Lance: "Is this something that hasn't happened yet? In other words, the viewing system is now playing future videos?"]
Bruno: "It's really amazing, it can even play future scenes. 0"]
Lorelei: "Hey, what's there to be surprised about, didn't the system play future images before?"]
[Ash fighting Raihan, Team Rocket and Bewear, these are all images from the future.]
Saizo: "Hey, are you guys listening to me at all?!"]
Lorelei: "Sorry, we really don't have the mood to listen to someone who can't even keep their badges well."]
Saizo: "..."]
["The day before the Indigo Plateau Conference, Ash and the others finally arrived at Indigo Plateau Town. Coincidentally, the sacred flame is being passed on in Indigo Plateau Town at this moment."]
["After learning that the flame of the sacred flame is the flame of the legendary Pokémon Moltres, Ash became interested. He stopped the sacred flame runner and asked to run a section of the road for him."]
Gary: "Ash, you really deserve to be you, you can even do things like stopping the sacred flame runner on the street."]
Brock: "Sigh, this is indeed something Ash can do."]
Misty: "Feels so embarrassing."]
Chairman Goodshow: "Hahaha, very interesting, isn't it? This is the first time I've seen such an interesting situation."]
[Maybe the future Chairman Goodshow also thought so after seeing Ash stop the sacred flame runner.]
[In the video, Goodshow not only didn't scold Ash, but agreed to Ash's request, letting Ash also become a sacred flame runner.]
["No accident, Team Rocket appeared again. They grabbed the sacred flame, but it's a pity that Chairman Goodshow was one step ahead. What they grabbed was just a fake sacred flame, and the real sacred flame was hidden in his clothes."]
["The next day, at the opening ceremony of the Indigo Plateau Conference, Team Rocket appeared again. In order to stop Team Rocket, Ash stood up again. Ash, who was ignited by the sacred flame used by Team Rocket, not only suffered no harm, but also saw the phantom of Moltres. Even if it's just Moltres's flame, it won't cause harm to kind people."]
["The opening ceremony was successfully held, and the next step is the tense and exciting Indigo Plateau Conference."]
Ash: "So nervous, I don't know what kind of results I will achieve at the Indigo Plateau Conference."]
Gary: "Don't be nervous, Ash, without the rewards provided by the viewing system, I guess you won't even pass the preliminary round."]
Ash: "Humph, the one who won't pass the preliminary round is you, Gary."]
Gary: "Hahahaha, impossible, impossible, Master Gary's strength is obvious to all, passing a preliminary round is not easy."]
Misty: "Gary's words are not very pleasant, but this is a fact. Without the help of the viewing system, it is difficult for Ash to enter the top 16 of the Indigo Plateau Conference."]
Brock: "Hmm, Ash's strength is still a big gap from the truly powerful contestants."]
Ash: "Woo woo woo, Misty, Brock, even you guys say so."]
Professor Oak: "Gary, you should keep a low profile."]
[I don't know why, I always have a bad premonition.]
Gary: "Grandpa, what are you talking about? Low profile? How to keep a low profile? My strength doesn't allow me to keep a low profile!"]
Chairman Goodshow: "Haha, good, it's a good thing for young people to have confidence and vigor, so I look forward to your performance at the Indigo Plateau Conference."]
Gary: "Don't worry, Chairman, I dare not say Champion, but my strength is stable enough to enter the top 4, everyone just wait and see my performance, it's OK."]
3.3"]
Professor Oak: "..."]
[In Gary's crazy showing off, the white-bordered screen slowly went out, and the black-bordered screen lit up.]
[The picture started.]
["After leaving New Island, Ash kept his promise and put the giant Dragonite back to Dragonite Island."]
["When parting with Dragonite, Ash asked for a dragon scale from the giant Dragonite for Misty. Under the witness of the giant Dragonite, Misty's Seadra successfully evolved into Kingdra."]
["Because the dragon scale of the giant Dragonite was used during evolution, the evolved Kingdra was a circle larger than ordinary Kingdra."]
["On the other side, Ash also saw Bill and his Pidgeot on Dragonite Island."]
["At this time, Pidgeot had undergone huge changes since Ash last met it. At that time, Pidgeot was only 2 meters tall from head to toe, not counting the tail feathers. Now it has completely changed. Now it has grown to 3.5 meters, and the wingspan is an exaggerated 6 meters."]
["What makes Ash even more happy is that the increase in body size did not lower Pidgeot's speed, but made Pidgeot's strength even more terrifying."]
["Bill really didn't lie to him, gigantism has no disadvantages for Pidgeot, only advantages."]
["I heard from Professor Oak that in the distant Alola region, there is a type of Pokémon called Totem Pokémon. They have a huge body size far exceeding ordinary Pokémon, and their whole body is covered with a special aura. This aura can give opponents intimidation in battle." Bill drank some water and continued, "If you are not in a hurry, you can leave Pidgeot with me for a while, I will try to see if it can also master the Totem Aura."]
["Not in a hurry, not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry at all." Ash said hurriedly.]
["He has enough Pokémon in his hands, he doesn't lack this Pidgeot, it's better to let Pidgeot stay here with Bill, maybe Bill can give him a bigger surprise."]
Lance: "Totem Pokémon? Does Alola really have such Pokémon?"]
89: Dark Ash wants to create his own skill! Advanced version of Surf: Raging Waves!"]
Professor Kukui: "Yes. Alola has no Gyms, our tradition is to let new Trainers participate in the Island Challenge. At the end of the test, new Trainers need to challenge powerful Pokémon called 'Totem Pokémon'."]
Bruno: "That..."]
Professor Kukui: "I know what you want to say. But Totem Pokémon are not my research direction, so I don't quite understand how they are formed."]
Lance: "It's a pity, if possible, I also want my Dragonite's body size to be bigger."]
Clair: "I see, cousin, you are crazy about the giant Dragonite. Is it because you don't have the chance to get the giant Dragonite, so you want to settle for the next best thing and make your Dragonite's body size bigger? You scumbag! You actually want your current girlfriend to have plastic surgery to look like someone else."]
Lance: "Don't slander me, my Dragonite and I are pure love, I just want it to become stronger."]
Clair: "Cut."]
["After saying goodbye to the giant Dragonite and Bill, Ash finally returned to Pallet Town this time."]
["Delia was also very happy to see Ash return safely from his trip, and made a table full of dishes to reward him."]
["Of course, Delia was most happy that Ash brought Misty home."]
["She said it early, her Ash is sensible, she doesn't have to worry about anything, look, he's only 9 years old, and he has already found a girlfriend."]
["After resting at home for a few hours, Ash immediately rushed to Professor Oak's laboratory."]
["Professor Oak is still very reliable. The Krabby, Grimer, and Aerodactyl that Ash sent to the laboratory were all raised fat and white by the professor."]
["Especially Krabby, there is no sign of malnutrition as before. It can't be said to be reborn, but it is already a normally developed Krabby."]
["Then Professor, I'll leave Lucario, Blastoise, Venusaur, and Charizard to you." The level improvement of these four Pokémon has reached a bottleneck. What they need now is not to practice hard, but time to integrate everything they have learned.]
["So Ash assigned daily tasks to the four Pokémon and handed them over to Professor Oak."]
["Nido."]
["Kuki."]
["After learning that Ash was going to take them away, Grimer and Krabby rushed to Ash excitedly. Ash didn't dislike them, hugging Grimer and Krabby one by one. 'Long time no see, Grimer, Krabby.'"]
Bruno: "Dark Ash is a real man, he can hug Grimer without changing his face."]
10 Koga: "What's this? Isn't Grimer very cute? Besides, as long as you get used to Grimer's smell, you will find it's not that smelly."]
Karen: "Koga, have you been with Poison-type Pokémon for too long, and your aesthetics and nose have problems?"]
Lorelei: "I don't know about the nose, Koga's aesthetics have always been problematic, just look at his Pokémon."]
[This is not Lorelei complaining, the fact is that all of Koga's Pokémon are ugly, none of them are good-looking.]
Lance: "Can't blame Koga, Poison-type Pokémon are not cute types to begin with."]
["Besides Grimer and Krabby, Ash also took Aerodactyl, but unlike Grimer and Krabby, Aerodactyl's feelings for Ash are not liking, but fear and awe."]
["Think about it, it's normal. The Trainer is a fierce man who can tear it apart by hand. It would be strange if Aerodactyl didn't fear him."]
["Taking three Pokémon, Ash just prepared to leave Professor Oak's laboratory, when the Pokémon egg in his backpack suddenly began to shake violently."]
["Is Caterpie about to hatch?"]
["It's not just Caterpie that's about to hatch, Misty's Togepi is also about to hatch. The two are like an appointment, hatching from the egg at the same time."]
["Please take care of me in the future, Caterpie (Togepi)."]
["Ash placed the first location for special training at the seaside only 20 kilometers away from Pallet Town."]
["On the beach, Ash arranged training tasks for each Pokémon."]
["Krabby was arranged by Ash to practice sand-digging on the beach. When it is familiar with Ground-type energy, it can learn Mud Shot."]
["Grimer practices Sludge Attack, which is Grimer's core skill, and it can evolve into Gunk Shot in the later stage, absolutely a god-level skill."]
["Aerodactyl is undergoing intensive training for Rock Slide. As the old saying goes, there is nothing that a Rock Slide cannot solve, and if there is, then do it again."]
["Li?"]
["Caterpie stared with big eyes, looking at Ash, as if asking, what about it, what should it do?"]
["You? The most important thing for you now is to eat." Caterpie's evolution period is very short, and there is no need for any training. It's not too late to arrange a training plan after it evolves into Butterfree.]
[The Pokémon that were assigned tasks each chose an empty space on the beach and started their day's special training.]
["Then, we have to start special training too, Pikachu." Ash said solemnly, holding a surfboard.]
