Pokemon: Release? Nonexistent

Chapter 1824 Reasons for not wanting to go home

(Third update!! Please collect and send flowers!!)

"How... how is that possible! I... I just want to say, there are so many gyms anyway, why do we have to go to Petalburg City, right?"

After hearing what Ash said, May quickly shook her head and retorted, trying to get Ash to change course.

As for this, Ash already knew it. It was still the same formula. He seemed to have heard this when he was in the Kanto Region.

“I heard that the Gym Trainer at the Petalburg Gym is very powerful, so of course I want to try it out.

Ash heard the sound and responded at the same time. This was no joke.

In Ash's understanding, Petalburg Gym Trainer is May's father.

He is undoubtedly a top-level Trainer, and his strength is quite impressive. To say that he is a Gym Trainer is a bit humiliating.

Although he is the Gym Trainer of the Petalburg Gym, he is praised by the Hoenn Alliance as someone who has the ability to become an Elite Four Trainer at any time.

"But if you want to challenge a gym, shouldn't you find something simpler?"

When May heard this, she didn't refute Ash. She had to know that he was her father. Even if he wasn't that powerful, she couldn't speak ill of her father.

"Who told you this?"

After listening to May's words, I couldn't help but respond.

"Ah! Isn't it common sense to choose simple challenges?"

May listened to Ash's question and responded a little awkwardly.

In fact, she said this out of character.

Since she was a child, it was easy to give up or subconsciously escape when encountering any setbacks, so she didn't feel that anyone would specifically challenge a powerful gym.

"For most trainers, it may be, but for me, it makes no sense if we don't challenge the powerful Rival."

Ash responded lightly, and May was stunned unconsciously after hearing the sound.

Ever since she was a child, she has always liked to take advantage of opportunities. She has never met anyone who rises to difficulties like Ash. She feels a little special.

"No...but there are still many powerful gyms! We can go to other places to look"!

May still wanted to have a final struggle, Ash looked at May.

I remember that in the past, Misty didn’t want to go home because of her three older sisters. But on May’s side, her parents are so gentle and her younger brother is also afraid of her. I don’t know what she is afraid of.

"May I remember your home is in Petalburg City?"

Ash stopped teasing her and turned to look at her and asked.

"Ah! You...how do you know?"

When May heard this, she suddenly panicked.

"Professor Birch said, you don't want to go to Petalburg City so much, maybe you ran away from home, right?"

Ash made up a random reason. After all, Professor Birch was good friends with May's father, so this reason made perfect sense.

"Of course not."

May quickly retorted after asking, saying that she came out after making an agreement with her family.

"Then why don't you want to go back?"

Ash continued to ask after hearing the sound.

"That... that's because...

May shook her eyes, as if thinking of any reason to get away with it.

But she saw Ash looking at her, giving her the feeling that she couldn't lie.

"Oops! Okay, I admit it, my home is in Petalburg City, and Petalburg Gym Trainer is my dad!"

Finally being looked at by Ash and unable to think of any reason, May finally had no choice but to admit it in despair.

"In that case, why don't you want to go home?"

Ash already knew this, but the reason why May didn't want to go home "Ash didn't know.

"Because...even though I said I was going to collect Pokémon from Professor Birch, I just wanted to have a reason to travel. I didn't want to be a Trainer at all!"

"To be honest, I haven't decided what to do yet!"

"And my dad is a gym trainer. After he knew that I became a trainer, he didn't know that he would ask me to compete with him."

"Besides, dad is a very famous trainer. If he found out that I don't want to be a trainer at all, I don't know if he would be angry."

Seeing that she could no longer hide it, May had to tell her all the reasons why she didn't want to go back.

Although he had watched the anime, Ash only now knew the real reason why May didn't want to go back.

"That's it! In fact, you don't have to worry at all. I think your parents will support you if you express your thoughts."

Ash listened and couldn't help but respond. As long as they weren't cheating on their father or son like Xiaogang, Ash felt that the elders in this world were still very open-minded.

"But, dad is a Gym Trainer, and a Trainer that Hoenn Alliance is very optimistic about."

"If others knew that his daughter didn't want to be a Trainer at all, it would bring shame to him!"

After hearing Ash's words, May felt a little relieved, but in fact, what she was most worried about was something else.

"...I have a good friend who is also the grandson of Professor Oak. We used to be the best competitor in Rival, but now he has given up as a Trainer and is working towards becoming a Pokémon researcher."

"However, whether he chooses to be a Trainer or a Pokémon researcher, Professor Oak is still proud of him.

Hearing this, Ash unconsciously thought of Gary. Based on Gary's incident, he hoped that May could untie her knot.

"But I don't even know what to do."

Listening to Ash's words, May gradually felt relieved, but now she was completely confused about the future.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know. No one knows what they want to do at the beginning. Maybe during the journey, you will slowly find what you want to do."

Ash chuckled, and as a senior (Wang Li's), he patiently explained May's problems.

"I understand, thank you Ash."

With Ash's help, May untied her knot and decided to muster up the courage to tell her parents clearly when she got home.

Although I haven't thought of what to do yet, I must at least tell them firmly that I am not interested in Trainer.

This way, at least I won’t be hesitant about how to respond when asked about Trainer by others in the future.

"So, can we go to Petalburg City?"

Ash smiled and asked after hearing the sound.

"Of course, I'll lead the way. Let's go quickly! Jun!"

After untying her knot, May seemed very happy and regained her usual cheerfulness. She ran in front of Ash. She didn't want to go back before, but now she couldn't wait to go back. She turned around and said.

"Ash is going to be thrown away by me if he doesn't hurry up."

"coming!".
