Pokémon: Sinnoh, the beginning of a dream

"why!!!"

Xiaoguang, who was standing on the rooftop at this moment, still had the confidence and optimism of the past few days in her eyes. Her blue eyes were full of tears, and her body was shaking uncontrollably. She just shouted into the air, expressing her emotions. The inner unwillingness and sadness after failure.

"But...I clearly promised Xiaozhi..."

"He worked so hard to help me correct my mistakes in the battle..." At the moment, her mind was filled with Xiaozhi's gentle teaching and trust in her, and the sadness that came like a tide seemed to drain her of her physical strength and make her tremble. Sitting on the ground majestically...

"So...what he said yesterday, is this what he meant..." Xiaoguang sobbed slightly, thinking back to Xiaozhi's inexplicable advice to her yesterday.

"The beauty contest pursues the beauty of Pokémon, not the beauty of skills."

"Why...why didn't I find out earlier..." Xiaoguang buried her head in her knees, her shoulders shaking constantly; at this moment, she only felt sorry for her Pokémon, sorry for her mother's expectations, and even sorry for Xiaozhi's long-standing Care and guidance for her.

"He must be very disappointed in me..." the girl murmured in a low voice. The suffocating feeling in her heart was so overwhelming that she could hardly breathe. Tears were like dropped pearls, falling down her cheeks drop by drop. Slide up and down...

But when she was helpless, she felt the warm touch of a dry towel on her cheek, and at the same time she felt a gentle tap on her shoulder.

"This is not the Xiaoguang I know~" Xiaozhi slowly squatted down and took his own towel to wipe Xiaoguang's tears very considerately. "The Xiaoguang I know is optimistic and hardworking. I am full of energy every day, always saying that there is no problem, and being positive like the sun warms us..."

"..." Looking at the extraordinarily gentle Xiaozhi in front of her, Xiaoguang's long-pressed sadness and despair finally vented out; completely ignoring the current situation, she threw herself into Xiaozhi's arms and cried bitterly, defeated and unwilling. The tears kept flowing down and wet Xiaozhi's clothes...

"..." Regarding this, Xiaozhi just patted her back silently and used his actions to warm her. He didn't understand sweet words, and he couldn't understand emotional issues at all; he only knew that Xiaoguang was so uncomfortable. , he will also unconsciously feel suffocated in his heart...

(Help, forgive me for adding a little bit of Xiaozhi’s emotional intelligence... If it were really the original piece of wood, I can’t imagine how he would comfort Xiaoguang...)

"So...that's why you told me this..." She slowly raised her red eyes and looked at Xiaozhi, "I ignored the most essential characteristics of the gorgeous contest..."

"Yeah... But you can't listen at all..." Xiaozhi chuckled and shook his head, "It's okay to fail. I've been through this too. I also had a fire-breathing dragon lose its fighting consciousness in the league competition because of poor education. Condemned..."

"But what we have to pay attention to is never the pain of failure." Xiaozhi slowly pulled up Xiaoguang, "Those who cannot defeat us will eventually make us stronger. Remember the feeling of failure, and then work harder to correct it. That’s what we should do.”

"Um…"

After venting her emotions, Xiaoguang finally regained her composure. She stretched out her hand to wipe the tears from the corner of her eyes, and then finally cheered up, "Yes! It's no problem! Just win it back in the next competition!"

"Boga!"

The door behind the rooftop was slowly opened by Xiaozhi. Pokmon, Pachiriz and other Pokémon swarmed into Xiaoguang's arms, cheering and encouraging her. They never blamed Xiaoguang, they just failed. I will definitely win back their little light next time!

"That's great..."

"Pika pika (yes, it's great that you are enlightened...)"

Pikachu, who came in from behind the door, also jumped nimbly onto Xiaozhi's shoulders. It nodded happily and praised Xiaozhi's behavior. It can finally coax a girl. It no longer has to worry about whether Xiaozhi will be alone in the future. .

And Xiaozhi looked at Xiaoguang and her Pokémon playing with joy. It seemed that this failure was meaningful; only unforgettable pain would make her grow.

"... "

"... "

"Well, I understand, but there is still nothing we can do about it." Caizi looked at Xiaogang on the other end of the phone and nodded, "After all, there is no failure. This child will never grow up."

Just before Xiaozhi went to comfort Xiaoguang, he gave Aunt Caiko's phone number to Xiaogang so that she didn't have to worry about Xiaoguang's problems. After all, isn't the biggest worry of a parent is that his child will collapse due to difficulties? ?

"How is she doing now?"

"It should be fine, Xiaozhi is with her."

"That's it~" Caizi's worried expression immediately disappeared, and she breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I can rest assured. With Xiaozhi here, there will be no problem. Call me when Xiaoguang recovers. Bar!"

"Okay, sorry to bother you~"

After Xiaogang hung up the phone, he saw Xiao Wang after the finals, and the other party came over with a pityful smile.

"It's a pity, just a little bit close."

"Yes, but it also exposed our weaknesses." Xiao Wang looked at his Charming Meow. Shang Zhi was really a difficult opponent to deal with. "Speaking of which, how are Xiao Guang and Xiao Zhi doing?"

Just when Xiaogang wanted to speak, Xiaoguang's energetic voice came from behind them.

"Of course I have no problem!!" Xiaoguang, who was fully resurrected, hugged her Pokémon and smiled happily. If you didn't look carefully at the red corners of her eyes, you might have believed her, "It's just a failure. I will definitely work hard to summarize!”

"Xiao Wang, I won't lose again next time!"

"Okay, okay~~I'll be waiting for you anytime~"

I should have been worried that she would be unhappy and lose her fighting spirit; but now she has the same excess energy as before. Is this good news?

"It seems that your persuasion is very good~" Xiaogang patted Xiaozhi on the back happily, and was satisfied with Xiaoguang's current state; this is right, if you lose, just wipe away your tears and get up and continue working hard, Xiaozhi This is how wisdom comes along.

"It's up to Xiaoguang to adjust well~" Xiaozhi waved his hand. After all, he only played a supporting role. She was able to come out so quickly because of her own optimistic personality.

"But you are also very similar, aren't you?"

Whether it was his first failure or his youthful debut, Xiaogang saw the shadow of Xiaozhi from the past in Xiaoguang.
