Pokémon Heart Journey

In Viridian City, inside the Pokémon Center, Ash was sitting on a chair with an anxious look on his face, next to him sat a purple-haired boy with a relaxed look on his face.

His name is Ming Ye. He is an Alliance investigator and a disciple of Aju, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Chengdu. It was he who recently commanded Gengar to defeat the Hunter Leader and bring them to justice.

"Okay, stop looking. With Miss Joy's ability, curing them is not a problem," Ming Ye suddenly said to Xiaozhi.

After hearing Ming Ye's words, Xiao Zhi's eyes still revealed worry, and at the same time a hint of self-blame.

"Heh, you're really stupid to go up against the Pokémon Hunters in that situation. If it were me, I would just hand Charmander over to them."

"What did you say!"

Ming Ye's words directly angered Xiao Zhi. He glared at Ming Ye and said, "How could you..."

"Shouldn't it be like this?" Before Xiaozhi could finish his words, Ming Ye spoke up first: "You are just a rookie, but you didn't even think about it and went straight to confront a group of hunters who are obviously stronger than you. Are you stupid?"

"I……"

"Do you know how many trainers were injured or even killed due to various accidents at the beginning of their journey?"

"I..." Xiaozhi's voice became noticeably weaker.

"I think you have relatives. What would they do if something happened to you? When you did this, did you ever consider that if you failed, not only would you not be able to save Charmander, but your Pikachu and yourself would also be killed."

After hearing Mingye's words, Xiaozhi fell into deep thought. Yes, if something happened to me, my mother would definitely be sad, and it would also harm Pikachu.

"Ding~"

The treatment just ended at this time, and Miss Joy pushed Pikachu and Charmander out of the treatment room.

"Great, Pikachu, Charmander, are you okay?" When Xiaozhi saw them come out, he couldn't help but stand up and walked over to check on them.

"Pikachu"

"Ni~"

Pikachu and Charmander waved their hands to indicate that they were fine.

"Okay, now that everything is fine, come with me, Charmander. I will be responsible for sending you back to where you originally lived," Ming Ye stood up and said to Charmander.

"Ni!"

After hearing Ming Ye's words, Charmander seemed a little hesitant, and his eyes couldn't help but look at Xiaozhi and Pikachu.

"That's great, Charmander. Don't worry, Mingye and Miss Junsha are both good people. They will definitely send you back," Xiaozhi said to Charmander happily. Although Xiaozhi felt a little regretful to part so soon, he was still very happy for Charmander to see that he could return safely.

"Ni"

Charmander became even more hesitant when he saw this, and Ming Ye, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but smile.

He squatted down and said to Charmander, "Charmander, you have two choices now." Ming Ye raised his hand and drew a "2", then bent his middle finger and said, "First, you come with us, we will be responsible for protecting your safety and sending you back to your hometown." Then he raised his middle finger again and said, "Second, follow this person and become his Pokémon." As he spoke, Ming Ye pointed his finger at Satoshi.

"well!?"

"Pika!?"

"Which one do you want to choose?"

"Ni"

Charmander turned around and looked at Ash, pointing at him.

Xiaozhi was stunned for a moment before reacting, then asked with a look of surprise: "Really, Charmander? Would you like to be my Pokémon and travel with me?"

"Ni~"

Charmander nodded, then clenched his fists and waved them forward a few times, looking at Xiaozhi with a fighting look on his face.

"Want to fight first? Okay, I accept your challenge."

"Pica~"

……

Xiaozhi was standing on the field, with Pikachu and Charmander confronting each other in front of him, while Mingye was sitting on a bench nearby watching the game.

"Ni!"

Charmander took the first step, a flame spurted out of its mouth, and the orange-red column of fire quickly approached Pikachu.

Ming Ye: "Oh! Not bad, we can use jet flames in this period."

"Pikachu, use lightning to dodge!"

"Pickup!"

Pikachu turned into a streak of white light, dodging the jets of flames while quickly approaching Charmander, but Charmander immediately stopped spraying flames and instead emitted a green light from its tail, which it swung towards Pikachu fiercely. In the split second, Pikachu had no time to brake and was directly knocked away by the tail.

"Pika," Pikachu wailed.

"You can even use Dragon Tail? In that case, Pikachu, use 100,000 volts."

"Pi~ka~qiu~"

Sparks burst out from the electric sac on Pikachu's cheek, and then a strong lightning bolt came out from Pikachu, with a force of one hundred thousand volts. Charmander couldn't dodge and was hit directly, but he spit out Dragon's Fury with his backhand, and a blue ball of light exploded directly on Pikachu who was still outputting. Both of them suffered serious injuries, but in comparison, Charmander was more seriously injured, which shows how powerful Pikachu's electricity is.

"The final blow decides the outcome! Pikachu uses 100,000 volts!"

"Pi~ka~qiu~"

One hundred thousand volts was emitted again, and Charmander was not to be outdone. It spit out a powerful jet of flame from its mouth again. The flame and lightning collided in the air. After a stalemate, the lightning overwhelmed the flame and hit Charmander. When the lightning dissipated, Charmander's eyes became whirlpool-shaped, and it fell to the ground, obviously having lost its ability to fight.

"Go Pokéball," Xiaozhi threw the Pokéball and hit Charmander, and a red light sucked Charmander into the Pokéball.

"Ding~", the Pokéball stopped after shaking slightly, and it was obvious that Charmander recognized Satoshi.

"I got Charmander," Xiaozhi said excitedly as he picked up Charmander's Poké Ball.

"Pikachu," Pikachu also raised his right hand and jumped up to echo.

"Not bad, but I still don't think you have the ability to protect Charmander," Ming Ye walked over and said.

"What did you say……"

"So I will test you next." Before Xiaozhi could finish, Ming Ye continued, "Come here again tomorrow morning to fight me. I will judge whether you are capable of protecting Charmander. This is also my job. You are not allowed to refuse."
