Chapter 2

Shitron looked toward his sister and the dongdong mouse, his eyes carrying a hint of confusion.

She is an elite trainer?

Youli Jia is only six years old, and the dongdong mouse was captured with his help; he doesn't have much strength, so he shouldn't count as an elite trainer.

Could it be the chosen one?

Ash and Salina also share the same thought.

Youli Jia beamed with delight, the dongdong mouse nibbling on tree fruit in a silly manner, not looking like an elite trainer's Poké Ball.

【Doctor Da Mu: Light screens all say that those who can fire bullet chats are basically elite trainers.】

【Ai Lan: Doctor Da Mu, do you know what this Light Screen is? Above Mialeishi there are two huge transparent Light Screens, and I also have a small Light Screen in front of me displaying your messages.】

【Doctor Da Mu: I don't know, uh, Pallet Town here also has two big Light Screens; I know nothing about the appearance of this Light Screen.】

【Fu La Da Li: The two huge Light Screens that appeared out of nowhere above are not ordinary; I will study them first.】

Fu La Da Li wore a solemn expression; the appearance of two Light Screens above the Mialeishi venue greatly affected his plan, and he must first investigate clearly before speaking; if he rashly launches the plan, the chance of failure is very high.

【Yulongdu: Could it be Team Rocket again?】

【Da Wu: Not clear, the Light Screen just said it would broadcast a teenager's legendary journey; I don't know who that teenager is.】

【Ash: Mr. Da Wu, could the teenager's legendary journey the Light Screen mentioned be you?】

【Shitron: It's possible; Mr. Da Wu is the Champion of the Hoenn region, so it's normal to be broadcast.】

【Da Wu: No, I probably isn't; every region has strong Champions, although I am the Hoenn Champion, other regions' Champions are not weaker than me, I still don't qualify.】

【Qibana: Cough cough, speaking of legendary journeys, I want to interject and tell you about a trainer who has a legendary journey!】

【Ash: Speak, hurry up!!!】

【Qibana: Actually, I am that legendary...... rival!】

【Da Wu: Mr. Dani, right? Mr. Dani certainly counts as legendary.】

【Qibana: Dani is the current Champion of the Galar region, truly the strongest Pokémon trainer in Galar; if his journey isn't considered legendary, I really can't think of anyone else who could be called legendary.】

Ash saw Qibana talking about Dani on the bullet chat, and Shitron beside him also looked up Dani's information.

First time participating in a Gym challenge he won the Champion Cup; achieving this feat at only 10 years old. Since then, he and his good partner Charizard have maintained a winning streak in all competitions, including official tournaments. He is hailed as an invincible Champion, the object of admiration for all trainers.

"Let Galar's trainers be invincible under heaven!"

To realize this dream of a Champion era, Dani transformed Lotos Tower into a battle tower exclusively for Poké Ball battles.

"What a formidable trainer!" Youli Jia exclaimed emotionally.

Undefeated Champion...

Hearing Shitron mention Dani's information, Ash's eyes showed extreme excitement, even more than when he earlier wanted to participate in the Mialeishi conference.

【Dani: No, my journey still doesn't count as legendary; there are many strong trainers in other regions too.】

【Ju Zi: I agree with that statement of Dani's; indeed each major region still has many strong trainers—for example, in our Kanto region there is a trainer; although I don't really want to say it, his journey can completely be called legendary.】

【Ash: Is it Mr. Yulongdu!!!】

【Yulongdu: Ash, you think too highly of me......】

【Ju Zi: Not him, it's Old Man Oak!!!】

【Ash: Huh?】

【Xiaomao: Huh?】

【Doctor Da Mu: Huh?】

Doctor Da Mu, who had just been boiling instant noodles over an alcohol lamp, sneezed, and then saw on the bullet chat someone saying he was, and that he was legendary.

Originally he just wanted to eat his instant noodles and quietly watch them chat, but he never expected the conversation to turn to himself.

【Ash: Doctor Da Mu, turns out you're so amazing; the legendary is actually right beside me!!!】

【Xiaomao: The legendary is actually my grandfather!!!】

【Doctor Da Mu: Don't talk nonsense; I don't deserve to be called legendary, I'm just an ordinary researcher!】

【Ju Zi: Don't look at him now being an old man; back then he was a powerful trainer and even the champion of the first Poké Ball League! Now he's really out of line, giving up his trainer identity to go research Pokémon and make a Pokédex!】

【Ash: Turns out Doctor Da Mu is so strong!】

【Da Wu: Indeed, I've heard of Doctor Da Mu's prestige—not only renowned in the research world, but his deeds also circulate in the trainer world; a genuine legend!】

【Doctor Da Mu: That's all in the past; although my journey was somewhat extraordinary, it definitely doesn't count as legendary.】

At that moment, the system's voice suddenly echoed again in everyone's minds.

【Ding! Viewing comparison content loaded!】

【Ding! Countdown starts......】

【10......】

【9........】

As the countdown sound rang, the edges of the huge screen kept flashing.

Soon, the black‑bordered Light Screen dimmed temporarily, while the white‑bordered Light Screen grew brighter!!!

【3........】

【2........】

【1........】

【Viewing comparison officially begins, first playing the white world, which is the past of this world.】

At the moment the countdown ended, the White Light Curtain instantly displayed a clear picture~~~

In the sunny forest, various sprites frolicked about; the Budew sneaked stealthily into the grass, the Karrablast was scared away by the Green Caterpillar, and from time to time a few Magikarp leapt out of the pond.

The Doctor Da Mu they had just been discussing walked out, leading many children to play at the amusement facilities; several kids climbed onto Snorlax's bodies and jumped up and down.

【Ju Zi: Really is Old Man Oak, huh!】

【Ash：When I look at it, I feel it's somewhat familiar?】

【Xiaomao：Idiot, this is the summer camp activity my grandfather held in Pallet Town, you also participated in it.】

Xiaomao had just finished speaking when he saw a dark-skinned boy appear on the screen, playing with a mosquito incense tadpole, right?

This little boy was Ash when he was young.

Suddenly the mosquito incense tadpole ran off elsewhere, and Ash chased after it.

Chasing and chasing, Ash followed the mosquito incense tadpole through the bushes; the tadpole didn't notice, but instead he saw a little girl who had fallen to the ground and was softly sobbing.

The little girl wore a dress, had a straw hat on her head, still had wet tear marks on her face, and had a scrape on her knee.

She had thought that what came out of the bushes was a Poké Ball, but didn't expect it to be a boy her own size; sniffling, she stopped crying when she saw Ash.

Upon learning the little girl's situation, Ash warmly bandaged her wound, helped her overcome her fear, held her hand, and took her back to the camp.

【Xiaomao：What the heck? What is Ash doing? What on earth is he doing!!!】

Xiaomao saw Ash hitting on girls earlier than him, and frantically asked questions.

【Saqi：Shalinna, you used to cry so much as a kid; sending you to summer camp was meant for you to get along well with Poké Balls, but I didn't expect you to first get along with this little boy, and it seems you're getting along quite well.】

【Huazi：Ash, Mom, why haven't I heard you say you met such a cute girl at summer camp? When you were little, you were not at all braindead; how did you grow up to be as wooden as a wooden head?】

【Ash：This...... I forgot, back then I only remembered Poké Balls.】

【Saqi：Oh my, no wonder Shalinna wants to travel with Ash; turns out they already knew each other, they had planned to travel together! Shalinna, right?】

【Shalinna：Mom, you...... you don't speak.】

At this moment, Shalinna's face turned red; the fact that her childhood first encounter with Ash was publicly exposed was already embarrassing enough, and her own mother still had to tease her in front of so many people.

Can't we let her lose less face in front of the person she likes!!!
