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

Xiao Zhi chuckled softly, then gently touched the brim of his hat, straightening it, his eyes radiating intense fighting spirit.

I'm Ash from Pallet Town, and I'm going to be a Pokémon Master!

Feeling lost? Not at all!

He's just a Pokémon-brained idiot.

Since that's the case... we should start with what's around us and heal Maruyama Aya's injuries first.

"Don't move around. If you spray the wound medicine in your current state, it will crack. Let me spray it first."

"Yeah...I know."

Ash touched Maruyama Aya's soft thigh, his movements cautious and gentle, trying his best to avoid causing any discomfort. He sprayed medicine on the wound on her thigh, hoping to relieve her pain and disinfect it as soon as possible.

Although he avoided most of the damage, he still failed to prevent a small portion.

"Huh?~~ It's okay, just go ahead." When Maruyama Aya felt Satoshi's hand, her body trembled slightly instinctively, and a faint blush quickly spread across her cheeks.

Xiao Zhi's hands are so skilled.

Why is he so skilled...? My body feels like it has become his.

Maruyama Aya felt a tingling and warm sensation spreading from her thighs throughout her body, causing her to breathe softly, her alluring breath filling the air.

"Ugh~~" At that moment, her body unconsciously twisted slightly, and her thighs unconsciously tightened, expressing a kind of shyness and nervousness.

Until Maruyama Aya realized something: she wasn't the only one who was hurt.

"Xiao Zhi, your finger is injured."

At that moment, Maruyama Aya's pink pupils widened.

"Hmm? This is nothing to worry about! More important than this, let's get the color..."

"No, it can't be nothing! Don't move around. Disinfect it first, or you'll get infected!"

Before Ash could finish speaking, Aya Maruyama interrupted, her sharp eyes catching the wound on Ash's finger. Her reaction was swift and concerned. She quickly reached out and took Ash's hand.

"Hoo~" Maruyama Aya's lips parted slightly, gently taking Ash's injured finger into her mouth. Her tongue lightly and slowly licked the skin around the wound. Her tongue slid gently over the wound, licking away the blood.

At the same time, Maruyama Aya's warm saliva covered the wound, exerting a natural bactericidal and disinfecting effect.

The distance between the two closed instantly, and Maruyama Aya, who had never been so close to a boy before, was caught off guard.

"How about it?"

"Why lick it? Can't we just use medicine?"

Ash tilted his head, puzzled.

"Right? Why?"

Maruyama Aya tilted her head, puzzled, and then a strong sense of shame welled up inside her.

Wait a minute?! What have I done?!

Isn't doing something like that just being a pervert?

Why not just use wound medicine?!

But... Xiao Zhi smells so good, and he's really generous!

"Ugh... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to attack you!" Maruyama Aya lowered her head, her delicate cheeks flushed with embarrassment, making her seem somewhat at a loss in front of Satoshi.

I'm so...so shy!

Meanwhile, another thought lingered in my mind: Ash's blood tastes so delicious... I want to try it.

"It's alright, I don't mind at all. You should say thank you!"

As he spoke, Xiaozhi's handsome and resolute face shone brightly in the sunlight.

Maruyama Aya: He's really sunny!

"Really?! You don't mind? Then... I'll... do it to Ash again, okay?"

"Chabu!!"

Just as Maruyama Aya's face flushed and she was about to do something, the voices of Pokémon they had never heard before rang out around them.

"A tree gecko?!" ×2

The two turned around curiously, only to find a Treecko rushing towards Ash with a twig in its mouth.

"Pikachu?" "Gengar?"

"Wait! Pikachu, Gengar, don't attack yet! Let them battle! Lucario, I choose you!"

“Ouch!!”

Ash watched Treecko rush towards him, then threw a Poké Ball from his pocket, and Lucario appeared on the ground.

"Chabu!!"

Treecko was enveloped in a dazzling silver light. Suddenly, it leaped up, poised to strike. In an instant, it spewed out more than a dozen seeds from its mouth, swiftly attacking Lucario.

"Get out of the way, Lucario!"

"Awooo." Lucario remained remarkably calm in the face of this sudden attack. It deftly swayed its body, dodging the seeds with astonishing agility and coordination. The seeds grazed Lucario's body without causing any harm.

"A normal punch!"

"Huh?" "A regular punch?"

Lucario and Maruyama Aya were both stunned upon hearing this.

As for what kind of move a normal punch is? A normal punch isn't a move, so it doesn't do any damage!

"Roar!" Lucario swiftly swung its right fist, the force of the blow carrying a powerful momentum. Its fist lightly touched Treecko's body.

"Cha?! Chabu..." Kikyo was sent flying by the punch and crashed to the ground several meters away.

The tree gecko made a dull thud when its body hit the ground, as it had withstood a tremendous impact.

"Cha...Chabu..." The Treecko lay on the ground, struggling to get up, but each attempt ended in failure. Its body seemed unable to withstand the impact of the attack, and the pain made it difficult for it to recover immediately.

911 Competitive Wood Gecko and Old Wood Gecko

"Chab!!...Cha~~~" Then, Treecko swung his fist forward and was knocked to the ground by Lucario again.

The difference in strength between the two is too great, there is no room for them to fight.

Unfortunately... the other party doesn't seem to understand this principle.

"Chabu!! Chabu~~! Chabu!! Chabu!!"

Countless times, countless times he got up, countless times he was knocked to the ground, Lucario was basically going all out.

It can only say that the opponent is so weak that they don't even have half the fighting power of a newborn version of itself.

"Chabu!!"

The tree spirit stood up again, its body already covered in wounds, its eyes gleaming with unyielding spirit.

Little Intelligence saw a fighting spirit in Treecko's eyes.

She's just like him, with an indomitable fighting spirit.

"Stand up, Treecko! Don't lose to Lucario!" "Pikachu!!" "Genga!"

Seeing this scene, the hot-blooded Ash could not hold back any longer and immediately encouraged Treecko.

"Whoa?! (Which side are you on?!)"

"Ash? Why are you cheering for Treecko?"

Even Maruyama Aya was completely bewildered.

"Because that guy hasn't given up yet! Go, Treecko! Come on, get back up!"

Although he didn't know why it was attacked, Ash was quite fond of this Treecko.

"Chab!!" Despite this, the Treecko did not give up. Enduring the pain in its body, it struggled and used all its strength to stand up.

Hearing the sounds around it, the Treecko struggled against its pain and slowly, with difficulty, stood up. Though its movements were slow, each step was filled with perseverance. Finally, after numerous attempts, the Treecko successfully stood up.

Even Lucario couldn't help but take another look at the other party; it now understood why Ash was cheering for Treecko.

Like Ash and Pokémon, they fight with all their might, refusing to give up.

Ash fell in love with Treecko at first sight because of their similar personalities.

His values ​​in training Pokémon are to build trust, friendship, and bonds with them. Therefore, he respects the Pokémon's thoughts, and this Treecko is responding to Ash's thoughts, once again unleashing its will.

"Chab!!!" Treecko charged towards Lucario. Its fist clenched, it struck Lucario's abdomen with all its might. The attack left only a slight dent.

"Ouch!" Immediately afterward, Lucario punched Treecko hard. The force of the punch was immense, and Treecko was instantly sent flying, finally crashing heavily to the ground.

This time, the tree spirit did not have the strength to stand up again, lost consciousness, and collapsed to the ground.

"Cha...Chabu~"

Time seemed to stand still at that moment. After a long while, Treecko slowly opened its eyes. The first thing it saw was Ash's face. Ash was sitting beside it, supporting its head with his knees, giving it a warm lap pillow. Treecko felt Ash's warmth and care, which filled its heart with a sense of comfort.

"Chabuchabu!"

"Is there anything else? Let's not talk about that now. Treekia, I've got my eye on you. Do you want to come with me?"

Ash reached out his hand to the Pokémon, and he understood that the Pokémon wanted to come with him.

The series of actions just now were all to prove my strength and demonstrate my determination.

"Chabu..." Treecko stared intently at Ash's hand, its eyes filled with excitement and longing. It instinctively reached out its hand, wanting to touch Ash's.

But just as it was about to touch it, it suddenly stopped. This moment of hesitation seemed to be some kind of internal struggle within it.

"Chab!!" Then, Treecko stood up, shook its head vigorously, and after a brief pause, turned and ran eastward.

"Treetree, what's wrong? Weren't you very interested in Ash just now?"

As the figure receded into the afterglow of the setting sun, Maruyama Aya watched Kikami's departing figure, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.

"He must have something to do. I'll go check on him. Cai, you stay here for now."

"Eh?! I want to go too! Please let me go, Ash!"

Ash and Aya Maruyama decided to follow the direction Treecko had gone.

"Chabuchabu!" "Chabu!"

They traversed the jungle, stepping over fallen leaves, until they finally arrived at a tree hollow hidden by dense foliage. Deep within the hollow, they saw an old gecko, its body slightly hunched. It was the same gecko they had seen before, holding a twig in its mouth, conversing with the old gecko.

Although Ash wasn't entirely sure what exactly happened, he could roughly deduce it.

"Chabubu!! (Grandpa, you're my only family. I won't leave you here alone!)"

"Chachabu~~! (You idiot, I'm not leaving! This is my hometown, and I'll be in trouble if you stay here! I've lived here for decades, and it's no problem at all! Get out of here!)"

The two geckos kept communicating, seemingly trying to persuade each other.

The old gecko's words revealed a deep attachment and nostalgia for the past; its simple yet firm thought was to remain in its homeland. This land had witnessed its growth, its memories, its history, and therefore, it wished to spend the rest of its life here, until its last day.

The gecko's thoughts are much more complex. Its care and respect for the old gecko make it want to stay, take care of its relative, and accompany it through its old age.

However, deep down it harbors a broader desire: to leave this familiar environment and pursue its dreams and challenges.

In this forest, Treecko encountered countless trainers who wanted to capture their species.

The three starter Pokémon of Hoenn are quite powerful, no matter what, compared to that lowly Johto.

Countless trainers have walked through this forest, and Treecko has been observing their behavior for years, wanting to follow a trainer away, but has never been able to find the trainer he wants.

Until Ash arrived.

Kanto Heroes... Ash from Pallet Town.

Treecko had heard rumors about Ash from other trainers.

The more it heard about Xiao Zhi, the more interested it became.

Strong! Invincible! The strongest!

His future was so promising that it was hard to imagine, and Treecko witnessed firsthand the battle of this trainer he admired.

An indescribable shock.
