Chapter 3: Dark History Exposed!

[Ash: This person, why does he look so much like me?]

[Professor Oak: He doesn't just look like you, he is you. I recall you didn't attend this year's Summer Camp, Ash.]

After Professor Oak said this.

The live stream's comments froze for an instant.

Ash?

Who is that?

Why did this person appear in the live stream?

Could this five or six-year-old child be the strongest Champion the light screen mentioned?

That's nonsense!

[Long Du: Don't joke around. I know Ash too; he's just a child with decent potential.]

[Brock: I don't think so. Ash, like me, possesses a spirit as unyielding as rock!]

[Delia: Pervert! Who installed a camera in my house!]

[Everyone: ???]

Some Hao gazed at the poster held in Ash's hand, and a familiar feeling arose within him.

He seemed to have participated in that Pokémon Summer Camp.

In the scene—

The original scene suddenly shifted.

A cute Pichu appeared in the light screen.

Its adorable appearance and dazed, cute personality instantly drew everyone's attention.

Many girls even cried out how cute it was!

However, as the scene continued to play.

Everyone's hearts suddenly tightened again.

Pichu, this Pokémon, usually lives in groups.

Yet, the one in the light screen was never seen with its companions from start to finish; gradually, even it itself began to feel the emotion known as loneliness.

No family, no companions.

All the other Pokémon were in pairs, while it was the only Pokémon alone.

Fortunately, the lonely Pichu met a soft-hearted god.

A Kangaskhan mother took it in and placed it in her pouch alongside her own son.

The lonely Pichu gained its own family.

At the same time, the scene in the light screen changed.

When the summer camp began, Ash was still fast asleep.

He successfully missed Professor Oak's Pokémon summer camp.

White Town.

Misty, holding Togepi, squatted on the ground, and her laughter drew the attention of those around her.

Brock also walked up behind Ash at that moment and patted Ash's shoulder hard.

"Truly, it's just like you, Ash."

"Hehe, I'm not that amazing," Ash said, somewhat embarrassed, scratching the back of his head.

Pikachu, who had been perched on Ash's shoulder, looked utterly speechless.

That wasn't a compliment! Why are you blushing like a bubble teapot!

In the scene—

Ash's love of sleep made him miss this summer camp.

But the camp continued anyway.

Professor Oak had already led a group of children about Ash's age to begin their journey of Pokémon exploration.

Among the children, a dark-skinned child stood out particularly.

Taking advantage of a moment when the others weren't paying attention, he secretly led a little girl out of everyone's sight.

Goh, seeing this scene, was so excited he almost stood up.

His lifelong dream was to catch Mew, but if he could truly become the strongest Champion, that would be pretty good too!

Oak Research Institute.

Chloe gazed at the scene in the light screen, and unpleasant memories instantly rose in her heart!

In the scene—

Chloe followed Goh with a tense expression.

Meanwhile, Goh recklessly chased wild Pokémon all over the forest.

In the blink of an eye.

The two had already run out of the safe zone; Chloe tried several times to stop Goh.

But all she got in return was Goh's even more excited eyes.

However, upon seeing a fierce Nidoking, Goh was instantly terrified and lost all composure.

After Chloe, panting heavily, finally reached Goh's side.

Goh actually turned and ran without hesitation.

Confused, Chloe looked up and happened to run right into the Nidoking, which was exhaling white mist with sharp eyes.

Chloe opened her mouth to ask for help, but the moment she turned her head, Goh's figure had already vanished.

Chloe burst into tears!

She ran while trying to reach out and grab the figure that was gradually disappearing before her.

[Cynthia: Abandoning one's own companion when facing wild Pokémon is truly the act of a coward.]

[Leon: If you lack the courage to face wild Pokémon, do not wander recklessly in the forest. Professor Oak, you should keep a better watch on these students.]

[Professor Oak: I am truly sorry, everyone. In all the years I have held this summer camp, only this one incident has occurred. Since then, I have long since strengthened the management of my camp!]

[Goh: It was clearly Chloe's own fault for running too slowly! How can you blame me!]

[Long Du: You are that dark-skinned child? I see you lack the aptitude to become a Trainer. Even your own companions would abandon you; with you like this, how could any Pokémon be willing to become your companion!]

[Goh: It was clearly her own problem!]

Instead of blaming oneself, it is better to blame others!

This has always been Goh's belief, so he is still being stubborn!

In the scene—

Xiaochun was, after all, a girl.

Her stamina was far inferior to Xiaohao's.

After running tightly for a distance, Xiaochun was already out of breath.

Behind her, the Nidoking pursued relentlessly.

Xiaochun, glancing back without paying attention, tripped over a stone on the ground.

Despair enveloped Xiaochun at that moment.

The Nidoking prepared to deliver a fatal blow to this intruder in its territory.

"Xiaochun, get out of the way quickly."

In the corner of the screen, Xiaohao glanced back once, then turned and left without looking again.

???

Rows of question marks filled the entire light screen at that moment.

Could a human really do such a thing?

Xiaochun had already fallen into despair.

Facing the Nidoking's impending attack, Xiaochun terrifiedly covered her eyes.

However, just as everyone prepared to mourn for this little girl.

A pink figure flashed by in an instant.

Xiaochun, who had been within the Nidoking's attack range, flashed and appeared in a safe place.

That pink figure gradually became clear to the crowd.

……

Pallet Town Gym.

Giovanni, hidden in the shadows, stared at the pink figure, somewhat lost in thought.

The hand stroking the Nidoking's head unconsciously tightened its grip.

Mew!

He had actually seen Mew!

The Mew cells obtained from a fossil had allowed him to create the perfect weapon known as Mewtwo.

Even though the final result ended with Mewtwo going out of control.

But Mewtwo's power was unquestionable.

A living Mew possessed value far beyond what a fossil could compare to.

Besides Giovanni of Team Rocket.

Many others also recognized Mew's identity.
