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

Suddenly, Riolu leaped high into the air, its head slamming directly into the Poliwag swimmer's body. Riolu's body shuddered from the impact before plunging into the water.

"Hoo!" Riolu shook its head in the water, shaking off the water droplets, and then quickly jumped up. Its hands gathered in the air, creating a vortex of energy.

Under Riolu's control, this energy quickly surged towards the Mosquito Swimmer.

How could a newborn creature possibly harm a fully evolved mosquito coil swimmer?

"Twist!" Mosquito Coil Swimmer reacted quickly, throwing a punch forward that created a powerful jet of water that shot straight at Riolu.

"Twist!!"

At the same time, Poliwag and Poliwag, who were beside Poliwag Swimmer, also launched an attack, heading straight for Riolu. The three coordinated perfectly and attacked swiftly, giving Riolu almost no chance to catch its breath.

"Awooo~~" Riolu was hit by the powerful impact and its body could not withstand it, so it collapsed to the ground some distance away. Its body rolled a few times on the ground, raising dust everywhere.

Riolu struggled to stand up, but it was clear that the impact had left it somewhat disheveled.

"Waveguide! Stay with me!"

Ash activated his Aura, sensed his surroundings, and quickly located Riolu's position.

“Ouch!!”

Meanwhile, Riolu wreaked havoc throughout the forest, its figure weaving through the trees, causing chaos wherever it went.

Butterfree, Rattata, Diglett, and other Pokémon attack Riolu, unleashing a barrage of moves.

Failure, failure, failure. After battling so many Pokémon, I still couldn't find that aura.

"Aww..." Riolu struggled to its feet, its body still bearing the fatigue and pain of the battle. However, it did not stop, but continued running through the woods.

They even climbed onto the rock face.

This is Dark Grey City, the city with the most rock-type rocks.

"Rio~~" Just as Riolu climbed up, a huge Onix suddenly appeared. Riolu was knocked away in the collision, its body arcing through the air before landing more than ten meters away.

Riolu rolled several times after hitting the ground, kicking up dust. It struggled painfully, stood up, and leaped up again, unleashing a vacuum wave at Onix.

The cyclone struck the Onix's head, but unfortunately, it had no effect.

"Roar!!" A dozen sharp rocks rapidly rose up around Onix, began to spin and accelerate, forming a rain of stones that shot towards Riolu.

Faced with the incoming rain of stones, Riolu did not choose to dodge, but instead sped forward, weaving through the stone rain.

"Awooo!!" Riolu leaped up, using its strength and speed to launch an elbow strike. The blow landed squarely on Onix's head, causing Onix's body to involuntarily bounce backward.

As for what kind of move is elbow strike?

Elbow strikes aren't a technique, so they don't do any damage!

"Roar!!" Onix's tail emitted a green light, and the attack struck Riolu directly.

Dragon tail!

"Awooo..." The powerful force knocked Riolu to the ground, where it rolled several times, unable to get up.

Immediately afterwards, Onix shot a beam of blue energy from its mouth, heading straight for Riolu.

Dragon Breath!

The dragon's breath shattered the earth and attacked towards Riolu.

Seeing this scene, Riolu knew he couldn't escape, so he could only close his eyes.

"Riolu!" At that moment, Ash quickly picked up Riolu and flipped over to shield it from the danger.

"Aww?!"

The powerful attack failed to harm Riolu, who opened its eyes in confusion.

Ash's gaze was gentle, conveying tenderness to the other person.

"It's alright, Riolu! We'll protect you!"

"Aww..." Just like a mother, it attracted Riolu, leaving it speechless.

There was only one thought in my mind.

Riolu: Ash, you are the man who can be my mother!

The unusual warmth prevented Riolu from escaping it for a long time.

"Pikachu, use Iron Tail!"

Ash gently put Riolu down, then turned around and focused his attention on Onix, unleashing a powerful aura.

"Aww?!"

Sensing this wave, Riolu's eyes widened in disbelief.

So what I've been searching for all along has been right beside me?!

"Pikachu!" Pikachu flashed like gold, its figure disappearing from its original spot in an instant, rushing towards Onix.

Using its supple yet powerful limbs, Pikachu leaped into the air, swinging its incredibly strong Iron Tail. The Iron Tail gleamed coldly, aiming at Onix's body.

"Pickup!"

Pikachu's Iron Tail attack crashed down, striking Onix's body and instantly erupting in sparks.

"Rock~~" The Onix was struck by Iron Tail and let out a painful cry, its body trembling as it could not withstand the powerful force.

In its agony, its eyes turned into circles, and with a single blow, the giant onyx collapsed to the ground, unable to move.

699 I caught Riolu!

"You did a great job, Pikachu!" "Pika pika~"

"Awoo~" Riolu's attention was completely drawn to Ash, who was the person it had been searching for all along.

Rumble!

"Roar!" At this moment, a strong tremor resounded from the ground, and another giant rock snake poked its head out from the ground. It had just been awakened by the battle and was extremely annoyed.

It seems unlikely that it will listen to anyone.

In this tense moment, Ash secretly considered two strategies: one was to use a physical attack that could put the opponent into a peaceful sleep, and the other was to find a suitable opportunity to make Riolu retreat quickly.

But Onix can approach Ash from underground and relentlessly pursue him, so... physical attacks are still more effective!

"Pikachu, use Iron Tail again!"

"Pikachu...Pikachu~~~"

Just as Pikachu was about to use Iron Tail to attack Onix again, Riolu forcefully knocked Pikachu down.

"Riolu?"

"Aww~ Aww!"

Ash looked at the other person with a puzzled expression, and suddenly noticed that Riolu raised its hand, trying its best to express its thoughts.

Ash, who was familiar with Pokémon, immediately understood that this Riolu longed to become stronger and wanted to defeat Onix with its own hands.

This Riolu has unique abilities; its waveguide is being fully unleashed, and it has also mastered vacuum waves, which are only available in high-level situations, demonstrating Riolu's special nature.

Since that's the case... Ash has to believe in it too!

"Alright, Riolu, I choose you!"

Ash clenched his fist, his tone firm and powerful, and Riolu immediately responded.

"Awooo!" Immediately afterwards, Riolu unleashed a powerful aura, and a storm erupted from its body, engulfing a large area.

Riolu charged forward, leaping up and its paws flashing with dazzling light.

"Hoo-hoo~~~"

A punch landed squarely on Onix's head. The force of the blow was immense, and Onix's head was severely impacted, causing its body to sway involuntarily.

Bullet punch!

This Riolu is indeed quite unique!

"Roar!!" However, Onix was not defeated. Its tail emitted a silver light as it attacked Riolu.

"Avoid it!"

"Awooo!" Riolu quickly dodged, its agile movements constantly avoiding Onix's tail attacks. Anticipating Onix's movements, it successfully avoided each attack.

At this moment, Ash and Riolu's Aura merged, and he predicted the location of Onix's attack in advance, informing Riolu through the Aura. With this power, Riolu was able to easily dodge Iron Tail.

"Riolus, unleash Vacuum Wave!"

"Awooo... Awooo!"

Riolu leaped high into the air, gathered its hands together, and created a vortex of energy in its palms.

This energy spun, its speed increasing, forming a powerful force.

The giant onix was directly struck by the vortex-like energy, and its body involuntarily collapsed to the ground.

"Well done, Riolu! Let me heal you first, don't move."

At that moment, Ash quickly ran to Riolu's side and took out a healing potion from his pocket.

He gently crouched down and, with a caring gesture, sprayed a spray of medicine onto Riolu's injured areas.

The injury is starting to heal...

"Awoooooo~~~"

At this moment, Riolu's eyes revealed immense gratitude. It slowly closed its eyes, savoring Ash's affection.

Unable to control his emotions, he couldn't help but hug Xiaozhi tightly.

This is what it wants.

Xiaozhi... is the woman who can become my mother.

"Your body is covered in injuries. How many Pokémon did you battle while I was chasing you?"

Ash gently stroked Riolu's head, both of them feeling extremely content.

"Awoo~ Awoo~ Hwoo~~!"

Then Riolu slowly began to explain his journey in his own words.

They start battling right after birth, but gain a certain sense of satisfaction from the battles.

Riolu brings to life a variety of Pokémon, including Poliwag, Butterfree, Rattata, and Diglett.

"You really enjoy battling, huh? In that case, would you like to join us?"

"Oh?"

Xiao Zhi spoke his mind sincerely and without reservation.

Ash won't force Riolu to refuse.

When he catches Pokémon, his primary consideration is not their combat strength, but whether he can create a spiritual connection with them.

Only when both sides can understand and cooperate with each other can even Pokémon with slightly inferior strength unleash amazing power through tacit cooperation.

Conversely, if the Pokémon and its trainer cannot connect on a spiritual level, even if the Pokémon is powerful, it will not be able to fully realize its potential.

I'm talking to you! Doggo! And your Suicune!

Pikachu, Greninja, Rillaboom, Blaziken, Garchomp, and Winged Beast—these are all Pokémon that have bonded with Ash, which is why Ash was able to defeat Xiangzi in the high school league.

What sets Ash apart from others is that he always captures animals from the heart and never forces them.

This kind of thing is simply not suitable for Xiaozhi.

"Let's become my companions with Pikachu, Ursaring, Gengar, and Charmander, and grow stronger together!"

Ash took the Poké Ball out of his pocket, looked directly at Riolu, and smiled slightly.

"Ouch..."

The smile was as warm as sunshine, shining on Riolu's heart, making it feel at peace, and bringing it closer to Ash.

In that instant, time seemed to freeze, and everything around became so quiet, with only the emotions between these two lives surging forth.

"Awoo!!" Riolu's lips curled up slightly as he touched the button on the Poké Ball with his palm.

Riolu was attracted by the Poké Ball, which flashed red light in an instant and captured Riolu securely.
