"It's amazing, it's absolutely amazing!!"
The Pinsir Trainer who was knocked down on the opposite side also walked forward with an excited look on his face.
"I didn't expect to see Pidgeot's evolution. It really feels like a dream!"
He looked at Ash with admiration: "You must be a very good Trainer to be able to make Pidgeot Breeder so powerful."
"Then if it's you, you'll definitely be able to defeat AJ!!"
AJ? Is that the AJ that people nicknamed Beast Master?
Ash did remember this person, who had set up his own private gym and built a Pokémon arena.
Determined to win 100 games, he set out on a journey to challenge the Gym Badge.
But he is also a very determined and hardworking guy.
Even though he only had four Pokémon: Sandshrew, Beedrill, Butterfree, and Rattata, he still managed to win all the games.
And training Pokémon is extremely harsh, but his Pokémon respect and recognize him very much.
This was in stark contrast to Ash, who at the time only knew how to use love to make friends with Pokémon.
It can be seen as a less extreme Paul.
It's just that the talent and vision in catching Pokémon are a little lacking.
Later at the Indigo Plateau Conference Ash was not seen either. It seemed that he was destined not to go far with just these few Pokémon.
Ash didn't think about communicating with him any more. After sending Rival away, he planned to continue walking towards Vermilion City.
But just at this moment, the Rotom Pokédex suddenly rang.
"Ahem, this is Professor Oak. I heard earlier that Ash, you have left Cerulean City and are now heading towards Vermilion City."
"So it's closer to the Pokémon Research School, right?"
"I have said hello to Principal Yuto there. You can go there and take a rest."
"Also, the reward from the Devon Company for the last harvest from Mt. Moon has arrived and has been sent there."
"There's a really cool Pokémon in there. I think you'll like it."
"Message from Professor Oak."
Rotom Pokédex clearly reproduces Professor Oak's voice perfectly.
"Pokémon research school?"
Ash stroked his chin, "Then it seems necessary to go there."
Well, the most important thing is that he is quite interested in the Pokémon provided by the German company.
"For such a big company, if it doesn't provide a rare Pokémon, then it would be nothing special, right?"
After making up his mind, Ash set out on the road to the Pokémon Research School with some anticipation.
However, at the same time.
In a deep mountain shrouded in mist.
"Run, run!!"
A group of teenagers in uniform were surrounding a treadmill.
They held candles and looked grimly at a cowardly-looking boy running on the machine.
"You can't even answer such a simple question. You are a disgrace to us Pokémon Research students!"
"That's right, if you're so stupid, you might as well drop out of school and go home!"
Although they were both teenagers, their words were extremely impolite.
This kind of academic bullying exists in every school, but it is even more blatant in some prestigious schools.
"Is this the Pokémon Research School in Kanto Region?"
Suddenly, a slightly cold voice came from the side.
There were also sounds of footsteps coming out from the mist.
"Who is it?"
The group of students in uniform holding candles all looked over there and pointed their candles that way.
Then, a young man with a stern face and wearing a purple, dark green and long-sleeved jacket walked out of the mist.
"I heard that this is a school for Pokémon Trainers. Once you graduate from this school, you don't need to take a practical exam and you can directly qualify to participate in the Pokémon Alliance competition."
"That is to say, students who graduate from this school do not need to go to various gyms to challenge other gyms and obtain badges."
The young man who arrived spoke in a slightly low voice and looked around.
Then he turned his attention to the students in front of him holding candles.
He looked him up and down, and then gave his intuitive evaluation:
"It seems that it is not that great."
"You guy?!"
Suddenly, the students holding candles became enraged, and they stepped forward with unfriendly faces and surrounded the young man in the purple coat.
The atmosphere at the scene gradually became tense.
...…
The other side.
"Pokémon Research School? I've heard of that place before."
As the trio walked down the road, Xiao Gang pondered for a moment, "That seems to be a full boarding school."
"But because of this, the tuition and teaching fees are definitely not cheap."
"That's right~"
Misty also nodded. "Legend has it that this is a prestigious school that only the richest kids in the country can attend."
Well, it is true that only in Kanto Region there is such a place.
"That's a good opportunity to see it."
Ash also raised the brim of his hat, and then saw the situation in the distance:
"So, are they carrying out some kind of activity over there? It looks quite lively."
Xiaogang and Misty also looked over and saw that the direction Ash was pointing was the school building built in the mountains.
I guess that's the Pokémon research school, but now, there are bursts of noise coming from there from time to time.
