Pokémon: Dreams Come True Starting in Sinnoh

A leisurely afternoon in a small house on a wide-open plain.

Ash and his friends were sitting in a garden full of flowers, and standing among them was a beautiful woman with long purple hair named Chizuru.

"I'm sorry you had to see this." Xiao Guang lowered his head, feeling slightly ashamed. "Xiao Gang has always been like this, please don't mind him."

Hikaru recalled Koga's earlier actions of flirting with Chizuru, and apologized on Koga's behalf.

Although Hikaru never really paid attention to Tsuyoshi's flirting before, he was now being treated well, and Chizuru did seem very gentle, with a light and airy demeanor.

Faced with a woman like this, Xiaoguang always felt that he would feel bad if he didn't apologize.

"No, it's okay, I was just a little surprised."

Chizuru smiled gently, not caring at all.

Standing next to Chizuru, Gardevoir simply bowed gracefully and gave a gentle greeting to Ash and the others.

It's often said that Pokémon personalities are similar to their trainers', and now, looking at Chizuru and Gardevoir's personalities, Hikari can't help but think that it seems to be true.

Their encounter with Chizuru was indeed just a chance meeting on their journey. The day after they subdued Patchlitz, they arrived in the central part of the plains, where Chizuru's home was located.

As usual, Brock tried to strike up a conversation with Chizuru the moment they met. Although he ended up getting a beating from Delinquent, Chizuru seemed to be frightened by it. However, she was relieved after Ash and Dawn explained things to her and then invited them to her house.

"Hey Xiaogang, can't you change your behavior? ...At least be mindful of the occasion."

Although Chizuru said she wouldn't pursue the matter with Kogo's actions, Hikaru couldn't help but complain.

"Forget it." Ash simply waved his hand dismissively. "Rather than expecting Brock to change his flirting behavior, I'm more inclined to believe that Team Rocket will stop bothering us from now on."

Of course, in Xiaozhi's opinion, neither of these two scenarios is very likely to occur.

"Sigh." Xiao Guang covered his face and couldn't help but sigh.

“But speaking of which…” Ash said, glancing at Gardevoir who was standing by the table pouring tea for them. “Miss Chizuru, your Gardevoir is very well trained. It seems perfect for participating in a Grand Contest.”

Ash is ultimately more concerned with the direction of Pokémon.

Moreover, what he said wasn't flattery. Chizuru's Gardevoir was indeed carefully nurtured by her. However, during the nurturing process, Chizuru focused more on its beauty than its strength.

From this perspective, Ash is indeed right. After all, in Pokémon Contests, beauty is more important than the Pokémon's strength.

Especially in the first round of selection.

"Thank you. Because I don't usually have too much to do, I have a lot of energy in my spare time..."

"Pikachu?!"

Just as Chizuru was about to express her gratitude, Pikachu's ears suddenly perked up, and it made a surprised and puzzled sound.

Having spent so much time with Pikachu, Ash naturally understood that this was Pikachu's usual behavior when it sensed danger.

"Watch out! Get out of here!"

Ash had no doubts and quickly chose to believe Pikachu's judgment.

Although Chizuru and the others didn't understand what had happened, Ash's quick actions and panicked words made them leave their location immediately.

"boom!"

An explosion rang out, and the shockwave spread out from where they had been sitting.

When the group who had evacuated quickly looked back at their previous location, they found that the stools, tables, cups, food, and other items on the tables had all been blown to pieces.

"What? Is it the Rockets?"

Hikari hadn't even seen what the enemy looked like yet, but she had already subconsciously attributed everything to Team Rocket.

However, this time the action does not seem to be the work of the Rockets, since the attack was not launched by a machine.

"A destructive death ray with that kind of power?"

Ash muttered to himself, then looked up at the sky as if he had just remembered something.

Just as he had expected, a short-haired woman with blue hair, wearing a black trench coat and sunglasses, was looking down at them from the sky, while the Flying Dragon beneath her stared with wide eyes as if it were about to launch another attack at any moment.

Hunter J.

Ash's eyes were serious.

If the other party hadn't shown up, he would have almost forgotten that Team Rocket and Team Galactic are not the only villainous organizations or characters in the Sinnoh region.

In terms of sheer difficulty, Hunter J far surpasses the other two, since her combat skills are not only effective against Pokémon but also against trainers.

"Oh? You actually dodged it?"

Although his sneak attack failed, Hunter J showed no remorse. Even though Ash couldn't see her eyes through her sunglasses, he could clearly sense that she seemed to regard him as a hunter, while they were prey trapped in a corner and at her mercy.

Who are you? What do you want?

Hikari sensed the hostility of the other party, so he took out Piplup's Poké Ball to confront them.

"Flame jet".

However, Hunter J doesn't take Hikari seriously at all, and she doesn't reveal her own preferences either.

Although she was somewhat intrigued by Pikachu's timely alertness, she did not forget that her real purpose for coming here today was for Gardevoir.

"100,000 volts!"

Just as Hunter J was too lazy to waste words with Ash and Dawn, Ash also had no interest in saying anything to Hunter J. Faced with Salamence's Flamethrower, Ash simply had Pikachu retaliate quickly.

boom!

Thunderbolt and Flamethrower collided in mid-air, creating a massive surge of heat that dragged Chizuru and the others backward. At the same time, Gardevoir reacted and used its psychic powers to stabilize everyone.

The shockwave stopped, but Hunter J's eyes revealed an unexpected surprise.

"This level of Pikachu is really rare. There should be a lot of people who want to buy it, right?"

Hunter J here clearly had her eye on Pikachu too. She waved her hand and made Salamence fly towards Pikachu, while she herself jumped to the ground.
