Chapter 58

"Hehe." Such straightforward words made Ash a bit shy.

Ash is still very familiar with Ecruteak City.

The area where Ho-Oh was sighted is the Bell Tower.

However, before they reached the area where the Bell Tower is located.

They saw Ho-Oh dancing in the sky.

Compared to the blurry photo, the live photo shocked Ash even more!

No, you're for real!

This is too crude!

"Wow, Ho-Oh, it just feels a bit ugly." Koharu exclaimed.

"Sigh." Ash pointed to the fake Ho-Oh in the sky, "Pikachu, Thunderbolt."

"Pika～chu!"

Pikachu immediately jumped up from Ash's shoulder, and a golden electric light in mid-air directly hit the opponent.

Then... Ho-Oh fell.

Koharu: "!"

Is Pikachu this strong!

【Wattson: Dying of laughter, that expression on Koharu is truly funny, there is a beauty of faith collapsing!】

【Flint: Ash! What are you doing! This is Ho-Oh!】

【Volkner: Behave, don't embarrass yourself, this is not Ho-Oh at all, it is clearly a Fearow.】

【Flint: What! Ho-Oh is actually the evolved form of Fearow!】

A look of horror appeared on Flint's face; he, a Fire-type Elite Four, actually didn't know such a thing!

Must hurry and catch a Fearow!

It must be able to evolve into Ho-Oh!

【Lucian: As expected of you, Flint! I recognize your IQ!】

Lucian in the League office pushed up his glasses.

Being ranked alongside Flint as the Sinnoh Elite Four makes him very ashamed.

This IQ!

I often find it difficult to integrate with you guys because my IQ is too high.

No wonder he was rejected when he invited Volkner to be an Elite Four back then.

It turns out Volkner was the smartest one!

……

In the footage—

After hitting Ho-Oh, Ash and Koharu hurried to the location where Ho-Oh fell.

The location happens to be the Bell Tower where Ho-Oh resides in myths!

Along the way, Koharu was trembling.

In these few short days, she actually saw two legendary Pokémon, Ho-Oh and Lugia, with her own eyes.

And, Ash actually easily defeated Ho-Oh.

What to do, will Ho-Oh be angry!

It's just that Koharu's worry didn't come true.

Because they saw that "Ho-Oh".

A Ho-Oh spliced together with colored cardboard is lying on the ground.

"Cyndaquil? Fearow?" Koharu exclaimed.

"As expected?" For such a result, Ash is not surprised at all.

At this time, a little boy ran out from the side, and he angrily questioned Ash why he did this.

However, he was stopped by his grandfather.

The grandfather scolded his grandson severely and said things like Ho-Oh doesn't exist.

A few words made the child red with anger.

"It exists, Ho-Oh really exists." Just as his grandfather turned to leave, Ash spoke.

He saw Ho-Oh with his own eyes, and Ash slowly recounted the scene when he and Ho-Oh appeared.

Of course, based on Ash's words alone, the grandfather still didn't believe it.

At this time, it also started to drizzle in the sky.

This little boy named Chris also recounted why he wanted his Pokémon to pretend to be Ho-Oh.

In his description, his grandfather had once seen Ho-Oh and obtained a Rainbow Wing.

Since then, his grandfather had been looking forward to the appearance of Ho-Oh.

Until the Rainbow Wing faded in color, Ho-Oh never appeared again.

Koharu listened with tears in her eyes, only Ash was a bit speechless.

Rainbow Wing, that is an existence that can reflect the heart.

You don't even believe in the existence of Ho-Oh yourself, why should Ho-Oh respond to you.

The Rainbow Wing probably gave it to you because you guarded the Bell Tower for so many years.

After understanding everything, Ash stood up from the stairs of the Bell Tower.

He asked Chris, "Do you want to see Ho-Oh? I can help you!"

Then Chris was stunned.

The audience watching the livestream was also stunned.

Who do you think you are, is Ho-Oh something you can see just because you want to?

【Gary: As expected of you, Ash, waiting to be slapped in the face!】

【Lance: Indeed, Ash, you should be more conservative, Ho-Oh is an even more mysterious existence than Lugia, it's too hard to make Ho-Oh appear.】

【Professor Oak: Stop it, Ash, even if you've seen Ho-Oh once, you can't see it all the time, understand?】

【Ash: That, don't enforce the law across time and space! This isn't what I said either!】

【Gary: Don't bark! If you can't see Ho-Oh later, just admit defeat obediently.】

Silver Town.

Seeing this scene, Gary finally felt comfortable.

Ash has finally been caught by me!

Now the winner is me!

……

In the footage—

Chris brought his grandfather and asked his grandfather to believe in him one more time.

The grandfather, who couldn't refuse his grandson, had no choice but to follow Ash and the others up the Bell Tower.

Before climbing to the top of the tower, there was an accident, encountering the obstruction of two Pokémon living in the tower.

However, this little episode was easily solved by Ash and Pikachu, and Misdreavus and Stantler were also caught by Koharu, who is preparing to become a trainer.

When the group climbed to the top of the tower.

The rain just stopped.

"What way do you have to make Ho-Oh appear?" Chris looked at Ash suspiciously.

Just now, he believed his nonsense on impulse and let his grandfather climb the tower together.

If Ho-Oh doesn't appear, I'm afraid his grandfather will really be disappointed.

However, Ash gave him a "look at me" expression.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Ash took out a Rainbow Wing from his arms that was a circle larger than the one in Chris's hand.

This Rainbow Wing can even see jumping flames.

"Actually, to tell you the truth, I have an identity as the Rainbow Hero recognized by Ho-Oh."

Ash said very calmly.

【Cynthia: This one is so big! Even though they are both Rainbow Wings, why is the Rainbow Wing in Ash's hand so big.】

【Gary: No, you really have one!】 ===== CHAPTER 59 =====
