What is a heavy girl? I want to be a Pokémon master!

The smile was as warm as sunshine, shining on Zygarde's heart and bringing it a long-lost sense of peace.

waveguide?!

"Do you understand my words?"

"Ah."

Zygarde's uncertain question elicited only a nod of agreement from Ash.

Seeing this, Zygarde felt relieved.

In this way, it can ask Ash for help to rescue Z2... another Zygarde companion from Team Flare.

But... can Ash really do it on his own? It... might be pushing Ash into a trap. In Rock Town, not far from the road, Zygarde smelled the aura of a god.

That was the scent of 'Y' Yveltal.

Even at 50% strength, Zygarde couldn't defeat Yveltal. Only by fusing with another Core to become the complete form could he succeed. If Zygarde's guess is correct, 'X' Xerneas is being chased by Team Flare.

I really shouldn't have dragged this boy into this.

What to do?

Zygarde was confused; things wouldn't be so bad if it could be in its 50% or complete state every day.

Simply put...

Zygard: Arceus, how did you design this?!

Zygard's worry seeped through, and the little AI vaguely sensed his thoughts.

It's not because of the aura, but because of my feelings for Pokémon.

Satoshi, the male protagonist, start!

[She's probably worried about Team Flare, afraid that Ash won't be able to beat them.]

With the addition of Frigg's emotional intelligence, Ash is like a tiger with wings.

"It's okay, I'll stay by your side. We'll take down those bad guys from Team Flare! And then we'll rescue your comrades."

Ash exuded an aura that ordinary people could not match as he touched Zygarde's soft, core-state body.

Kidd became completely absorbed in it.

Hands that are both warm and reassuring.

A completely different temperament from ordinary people... Confidence, sincerity, optimism, and love for Pokémon all flow into Zygarde's body.

"cloth..."

Ash's resolute gaze and warm hand reassured Zygarde, stirring a strange impulse within him.

With this boy around... I might actually be able to protect Carlos.

"Boy...no, what's your name?"

At this moment, Zygarde completely trusted Ash. Despite the pain in its body, it jumped up and stood up straight.

Xiao Zhi's handsome and resolute face shone brightly in the moonlight.

"My name is Ash!"

414. Zygarde has been captured!

Now that he had partnered with Zygarde, Ash took out the Zygarde Polyhedron. During his journey, he had collected a large number of cells, enough to bring Zygarde to 10% of its maximum potential.

However, to maintain it at 50% of its normal state, more cells are needed, a goal that is currently beyond Ash's capabilities.

As for Kidd's thoughts...

Could it have been stolen from Team Flare?!

Ash Ketchum is that powerful?!

Looking at his Doberman-like body, Zygarde felt even more admiration for Ash.

The 10% persistence level is much more flexible than the core state, at least giving it the ability to protect itself. Moreover, Zygarde is certain that if he is hit by the Flare Team's Cell Disintegration Ray again, it will not work like it did last time.

"Thank you, Ash."

Zygard shifted his body, adjusting the flow of energy within him, and confirmed his current strength.

"Don't mention it. I just don't want to see Zygarde get captured by those guys. Let's use our strength to protect Carlos."

Ash turned his head and focused his gaze on his Pokémon, who immediately came to Zygarde's side.

"Pikachu~" "Kouga~" "Boom~" "Basha~" "Gabu!" "Haba!"

Pikachu happily rubbed its cheek against Zygarde's face.

Greninja and Blaziken, standing nearby, stared intently at Zygarde, contemplating a battle.

Rillaboom wanted to fight, but it decided to hold off for the time being. Garchomp and Winged Beast extended their little hands and wings to shake hands with Zygarde.

Looking at the gentle and kind appearance of these Pokémon, plus Ash's sunny disposition, even Zygarde's heart couldn't help but be touched.

He could tell from the Pokémon's eyes that Ash's Pokémon truly followed him and were very compatible with him.

The fighting spirit in their eyes was exactly the same as Ash's.

There are trainers like this...

Then I have to trust Xiaozhi too!

"Ash, catch me. Right now, if I stay outside, Team Flare's technology will find me. In the meantime, I'll stay in your Poké Ball and calm myself down."

Now that they had become comrades, Zygarde gave him 100% trust.

Zygarde believes in Ash and in the bond between Ash and his Pokémon.

Unlike his companion Z2, he believes in the bonds that develop between people and Pokémon.

Seeing this, Ash's lips curled up slightly, and he took a Poké Ball out of his pocket.

"I understand. Please guide me from now on, Zygarde."

"Nice to meet you, Ash!" Zygarde's head touched the Poké Ball, drawn to it. The Poké Ball flashed red in an instant, capturing Zygarde securely within.

Ash was in a good mood and lifted the Poké Ball up, shouting loudly.

"I have subdued Zygarde!"

Unlike Team Flare's approach, Ash's goal is not to manipulate Pokémon to capture them, but to treat them with genuine affection.

Team Flare and Ash, with their two completely different approaches, both successfully attracted Zygarde to join them, which is truly an incredible outcome.

that is...

I've already captured 7, so why hasn't the ball teleported away yet?

Is it because the Carlos region is too far from the Kanto region?

Xiao Zhi was puzzled by this.

[Chiba, I've blocked the energy transfer from the Poké Ball~ so the Poké Ball won't be transferred for a short time, hehehe~ Friko, aren't I amazing~~]

Frico, you useful fellow!

[Waaah~ Zhibao, you don't need to praise me like that~ Freya's going to get shy~ I like... I like you, please date me with marriage in mind!]

Stop acting crazy here!

After hearing the explanation, Ash felt relieved.

Although Frico's power may not be overwhelming, her abilities are still remarkable at certain crucial moments.

It can temporarily intercept the energy transmitted by the Poké Ball. Although this ability may have a time limit, it is undoubtedly sufficient to deal with various emergencies in a short period of time.

"By the way, Zygarde, how about a battle? Before we deal with the other Zygarde, let's get to know each other's strength. A little training... shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Ash focused his gaze on Zygarde, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit.

However, considering Zygarde's physical strength, he wanted to let Him rest.

"Hmm-!"

Zygard immediately unleashed a powerful burst of energy, causing the wind to speed up and escalate into a gale.

This reaction undoubtedly means that they agree to it.

"Bashar! (Leave it to me!)"

Faced with the energy released by Zygarde, Blaziken walked in front of Ash without hesitation and accepted the battle.

Since they've come to Rockstreet to confront Team Flare, they're bound to encounter victims. Blaziken wants to protect them, as well as Ash and his important possessions.

Speed ​​Boost is an ability that exists to save people and Pokémon!

The closer they got to Stone Town, the more pronounced Blaziken's heroic spirit of helping others became.

"I understand! Blaziken, it's you I choose!"

Ash could sense Blaziken's burning soul and agreed without any hesitation.

Even if it's a type disadvantage, Ash will respect Blaziken's choice.

"Ugh—!" Zygarde in its canine form, its eyes gleaming with a vibrant green light, released energy from its body that coalesced into arrows, raining down on Blaziken like a storm.

It's a Ground-type Barrage of Arrows; if Blaziken gets hit, it'll probably collapse on the spot.

Thousand Arrows Barrage: Can hit Pokémon floating in the air. Once an airborne opponent is knocked down, it will fall to the ground.

"see through!"

Ash carefully observed the incoming arrows and gave commands to Blaziken.

"Bashar!" Blaziken remained calm, its eyes resolute, and it dodged the attack like a whirlwind.

"Use the Flame Kick!"

"Bashar!" Blaziken immediately rushed forward, its powerful thighs pushing off with a fiery kick.

Based on observations, Zygarde did not use its full strength, and Ash also had Blaziken use moves that were not very effective in order to train it for a long time.

However... this training did not last very long.

Because my henpecked husband behavior has started to kick in!

"Ash...it's getting late, go home and get some sleep."

"Nymph~~"

Aine naturally walked to Ash's side and took his hand. Even Sylveon stretched out its antennae and grabbed Pikachu tightly.

"Huh?! Can't we play another match?"

"no!"

"Pikachu?! Pikachu~~! (What does this have to do with me? If you want to catch someone, catch Ash!)"

"Nymph!"

Without any chance to resist, Ash was easily dragged into the tent by Aine.

Aine: You're itching to fight, aren't you! If you don't listen to me, I'll humiliate you!

415 Vladali's Plan

"I lost... I can't believe I lost to that boy so easily."

Pachela gently stroked her stomach, enduring the pain, and followed Espley back to Stone Town.

Thanks to the enormous creature that can circle the Earth in 16 hours, Pachira and Esprit returned safely.

Just now, the entire Flame Team was wiped out. The four scientists... without a doubt, they were captured. The core member of the Flame Team, Kutherosch, is currently in a state of depression.

This was a major defeat for Team Flare!

Not only did they fail to capture Z1, but they also lost four important scientists.

Although they usually act as thugs, they are still better than the random thugs you see on the street!

"Report, this is what happened to us."

Back in Stone Town, Espley reported everything that had happened to Prisoner-Vladali via her device.

"So that boy really has become my greatest rival?"
