Pokemon: Release? Nonexistent

Chapter 554 Return to Joban City

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

If you want to see more Pokémon, it means you are on a different path than Ash and the others.

If they were on the way, they would have a reason to be together, but Ash and the others had to separate because they were going to Joban City. After all, they had just set off from Joban City.

I'm a little disappointed that I didn't meet Ash and the others earlier, but after going through this, I don't feel too disappointed anymore.

"That's right! Then you have to be more careful on your own." Ash nodded slightly after hearing this, but he didn't feel too reluctant.

Although they only knew each other for a day, they were still considered friends. Ash felt that although the world was very big, it was because Trainer sometimes had similar goals.

So in fact, the circle is very small. Everyone is a "620" Trainer, so there is still a chance to meet again.

Just like Gary and Xiaolan, although they travel separately, they still have the opportunity to meet again.

"Well! Don't worry! As long as Qiuqiu and the others are here, I will be fine. I'll see you next time! Take care of yourself, Ash, Misty, and Xiaogang!"

Xiao Huang also nodded confidently, and then said goodbye to the three of them sincerely. Although they had not known each other for a long time, the master was the first friend she met after leaving Joban City.

Especially Ash, not only saved her, but also taught her a lot, so she cherishes this friendship.

"You too!" Misty responded.

"Here! This is the lunch box! Please accept it!"

Xiaogang said, and took out a lunch box wrapped in cloth and handed it to Xiao Huang. Because he thought of separation, he prepared this lunch box.

"May I?"

"You are welcome!!"

"Thank you!" Seeing Xiaogang take out the lunch box, Xiao Huang was even more moved. He thanked him and took it.

Qiuqiu also reluctantly said goodbye to Pikachu, but Pikachu didn't feel Qiuqiu's different emotions and thought it was just a normal goodbye.

"Then let's go first!"

After saying goodbye, Ash said something, and then the three of them turned and left, while Xiao Huang waved to the three of them on the spot, although the three of them turned around and couldn't see them.

Pickup~~~

Qiuqiu was next to Xiao Huang, watching the three people and Pikachu disappear, and lowered his ears slightly.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Huang knelt down, hugged Qiuqiu, and said comfortingly.

"You can't bear to leave Pikachu, right? It doesn't matter! We will definitely meet again, and Ash will be surprised when the time comes.

Xiao Huang also knew that Qiuqiu was reluctant to let go, and could even feel that Qiuqiu felt the same as herself, but now she was not disappointed.

Pickup!!

Qiuqiu cheered up and nodded seriously after listening to Xiao Huang's words, and jumped on Xiao Huang's shoulders. Xiao Huang also turned around and faced the opposite direction of Ash and others.

"Let's go! We have to work hard too!"

"I heard that Ash is going to attend the Kanto Alliance Conference. Let's go and cheer for Ash and Pikachu then!"

Pickup!!

While walking, Xiao Huang chatted with Qiuqiu, but they mostly talked about things related to Ash.

On the other side, the three of Ash continued to set off, not far from the Viridian Forest. In about one morning, the three finally returned to the Viridian Forest.

"I'm back here again, and it's still the same as before!"

As soon as she entered Joban City, Misty hugged Togepi and ran to the front excitedly. Because a lot of things happened in Joban City, she still has a deep memory of this place.

Joban City is not a big city like Rainbow City or Saffron City, but it has a different atmosphere compared to these big cities.

It is also the place where many Kanto Trainers start, because many Trainers, even if they are not Trainers in Pallet Town, have to go to Pallet Town to collect Pokémon at the beginning.

Most Trainers will pass through this city at the beginning. It is a city full of business.

"Where are you going next?" Xiaogang asked as he walked on the road.

"Let's go to the Pokémon Center first!" Ash smiled after hearing the sound, and then responded.

Although the Contest Condition of the Pokémon is not bad, Ash still wants to be cautious and determine the Contest Condition of the Pokémon before challenging the Viridian Gym.

"good!"

After confirming their destination, the three of them quickly arrived at the Pokémon Center. As soon as they reached the entrance of the center, they saw a figure walking out. They were also slightly startled when they saw Ash.

"Gary?" Ash subconsciously spoke after seeing clearly.

"So it's Ash! He's very fast! You've already challenged the Viridian Gym, right?"

The person who came was none other than Gary. Surprisingly, Gary was alone this time. He left Rainbow City so quickly that he didn't even notice.

"Not yet. Have you ever challenged it?"

Ash also responded frankly. At this time, he was not like in the animation, arguing with Gary about meaningless things.

“Not yet, but it doesn’t matter to me whether I challenge it or not, I have already collected ten Badges.

Gary smiled proudly after hearing the sound, and when he saw Ash, he deliberately showed off.

"Ten?!" Misty and Xiaogang were also surprised. Eight Badges were enough to challenge Alliance, but Gary had already collected ten.

Although ten Badges will not receive any special treatment at Alliance Conference, being able to collect more Badges actually illustrates the strength of Trainer.

"As long as you're not tired!" After hearing this, Ash spread his hands indifferently.

Collecting so many Badges is indeed a sign of strength, but the most important goal is to win the 3.7 Alliance competition.

Even if you can collect a hundred Badges, it's meaningless if you can't win the competition. It's just a waste of time.

For Ash, if he has so many Badges in that time, he might as well spend more time practicing.

Seeing Ash's indifferent expression, Gary was choked up again and simply stopped arguing with Ash.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you more, I have to continue to expand my Badge collection record! Farewell!"

With that said, Gary walked past the three of them, waved coolly and left.

Watching Gary leave, Ash suddenly thought of something after a moment. When he wanted to speak, Gary was gone. Seeing this, Ash frowned and looked at the direction he left, secretly hoping that he was okay. .
