Pokémon: Pikachu Bonds

"Oh? I didn't expect him to come. But I'm glad you could pass the message to me. The situation outside is not optimistic, right?" Banmu looked at Manori with a smile.

"Well~ After all, a league trainer suddenly asked to see you, the boss, so of course we wouldn't just pass on the message honestly." Manato's heart trembled, but he still answered with gritted teeth.

"Then you fought with him and suffered a great loss?" Banmu said.

"Well~ The four major cadres were all defeated, and then Apollo, one of the four major cadres, asked me to convey the message to you in the shortest time possible." Manato told the truth.

"It's understandable that you can't beat him. After all, Red is not someone you can deal with." Itaki expected this result. After all, Red broke into the Rocket Team headquarters alone that year and not only defeated Itaki, but also almost caused the Rocket Team to disband on the spot.

"Manatori, come with me to meet an old friend!" Banmu turned and left.

"Yes!" Manatori followed Boss Itaki's footsteps.

........

The next morning...

"Apart from Ursagi and the others, Xiaozhi, you should only have Charizard and Pikachu left, right?" asked Professor Oak.

"Hmm~" Xiaozhi was not in good spirits at this moment. After all, after dinner yesterday, he was dragged by the excited Professor Oak to chat all night long, which made him a little drowsy now.

"I came here in a hurry and didn't bring your Pokémon with me. When you have time, go to the Pokémon Center and contact me. I will use the teleportation device to send you a few Pokémon." Professor Oak instructed.

"Okay~ But I'm still recuperating and don't need Pokémon for the time being. Let them practice well in the backyard." Xiaozhi shook his head and said.

"Having said that...but given your current condition, you should still let the Pokémon accompany you. Although time is tight, a few days won't make a difference." Professor Oak said.

"I understand~" Xiaozhi immediately understood Professor Oak's intention.

"I'm glad you understand. Xiaojian and I will go back to the research institute first." After saying goodbye to Xiaozhi, Professor Oak drove away in his Ferrari.

"Ha~" Xiaozhi yawned, then turned around and went to the room to catch up on his sleep while holding Pikachu.

Misty, on the other hand, was hesitant, considering whether to replace Pikachu. After all, this was the best time to increase her intimacy with Satoshi.

Xiaogang was holding his notes and thinking whether he should take this opportunity to go to the battle frontier to look for Xiaoji. After all, she is his future wife, and he has to find a way to improve his relationship with Xiaoji.

.........

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye a month has passed. The source of light has recovered a lot, and Xiaozhi's body has also returned to its original state...

"After a month of training and honing my rapport with the power of light, I won't become physically weak again due to overuse of the power of light." Xiaozhi said, stretching lazily.

"When will Xiaogang come back?" Xiaoxia asked. Xiaogang left the Bad Frog behind a month ago and went to the battle frontier alone to find Xiaoji. It was said that Xiaogang had gained a lot of favor from Xiaoji thanks to his efforts.

Without Brock, Misty and Satoshi lived a honeymoon-like life, and their relationship made great progress. Of course, this was Misty's one-sided idea. Apart from occasionally talking to Misty during this month, Satoshi basically spent the rest of his time trying to hone the power of light and accompany Pikachu. After all, it is not so easy to make Satoshi's wood bloom.

"Gon sent a text message half an hour ago, so he's flying to the Sinnoh region regularly, so he should be here soon," Satoshi replied.

"Ash, Misty, long time no see!" As soon as Ash finished speaking, Brock, with a blush on his face, waved his hand and ran towards the cabin.

"Hey~ Isn't this Xiaogang? It seems like you have had a very good time this month." Xiaoxia said with a smile.

"Of course I'm doing well. After all, I've been getting along very well with Miss Xiaoji this month, although we haven't become boyfriend and girlfriend yet." Xiaogang said with a smile on his face. Then Xiaogang sneaked up to Xiaoxia and asked in a low voice: "Xiaoxia, during the month when I was away, have you and Xiaozhi made it a done deal?"

Xiaoxia's face darkened when she heard this, and she said unhappily, "Xiaogang, you should think of a way to apologize to the bad frog. After all, you secretly abandoned it in the first place."

Xiaogang fell silent immediately after hearing that. Just by looking at Xiaoxia's face, he knew that there had been no progress between him and Xiaozhi during this period. However, this was normal. After all, if Xiaozhi had such a good strategy, people would not privately call him a blockhead.

As for how to apologize to Bad Frog? Just kidding! I have already prepared a gift. The worst that can happen is that I will be poisoned by him.

But in fact...Frog did not attack Brock, but chose to forgive him. As Brock's Pokémon, he would not destroy Brock's relationship without knowing what's good for him. The reason why he used Poison Shot to stab Brock's waist was just for fun, and at the same time it also eased the embarrassment of the girl. After all, it was so embarrassing to be confessed to by a stranger for no reason.

Xiao Ji is Xiao Gang's destined marriage. Xiao Gang is afraid that what happened in the past will happen again, so it is understandable that he abandons her. Therefore, Bad Frog is not angry with Xiao Gang's behavior.

The Bad Frog didn't attack him like before, which surprised Xiaogang. After all, he had been prepared to be poisoned, but the Bad Frog easily forgave him, which made Xiaogang unable to get used to it for a while...

Xiaogang certainly didn't want to be stabbed in the waist by the poisonous attack of the bad frog, he just wasn't used to it for the time being. Then he turned around and said, "I got a lot of food this time. To celebrate Xiaozhi's recovery, I'll prepare a seafood feast for you."

"Great! Finally I don't have to eat the food cooked by Xiaoxia!" Xiaozhi said excitedly.

"Pica~"

"Yo! Xiaozhi, you seem to have something against the food I cooked?" Xiaoxia looked at Xiaozhi with an angry face.

Xiaozhi's heart immediately sank, and he quickly explained: "That's not what I meant. Xiaoxia, you learned to cook just for me, how could I dislike the food you cook? I really like the food you cook for me."

"I just haven't had the seafood feast made by Xiaogang for a long time, so I was too excited and said the wrong thing."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoxia's face instantly turned red, and she kept muttering, "Xiaozhi likes the food I cook...Xiaozhi likes the food I cook...Xiaozhi likes me..."

Seeing this, Xiao Gang couldn't help but sigh: "It's over, Xiao Xia has fallen in love."
