Littleroot Town, a town said to be untouched by any color! Although small, it is as famous in the Hoenn Region as Pallet Town because Dr. Odamaki's Researcher is located here!
----Littleroot Town Port----
Several Wingull flew in the air!
After sailing at sea for several days, Ash finally got off the ship at the port of Littleroot Town!
"Finally here, Hoenn Region! The air here is so fresh!" Ash said to Pikachu on his shoulder.
"Pikachu~" Pikachu nodded.
Excellent, the goal is to win the Cai You Conference! Ash's heart was extremely excited now!
"Let's go, Pikachu! We'll visit Dr. Odamaki first!" "Pika~"
Subsequently, Ash looked at the road sign and followed the path through the Forest to Dr. Odamaki's Researcher.
"Hello! I am Ash from Pallet Town! Is anyone in?" "Pikapi~" Ash knocked on the door!
Creak~ The one who came out was not Dr. Odamaki but his assistant.
"Oh! Welcome Ash to the Hoenn Region, Dr. Odamaki has already informed me about your arrival! I'm really sorry, Dr. Odamaki just went to the back mountain for field research! Why don't you wait here until the Dr. returns!" The assistant welcomed him.
"No need! I'll go find the Dr., and I can also see some Hoenn Pokémon!" Ash said and ran towards the back mountain.
"Young people nowadays are really impatient." The assistant shook his head.
Ash took Pikachu and wandered around the back mountain.
At this moment, a voice came, "Either one is fine, in any case, take out a Pokémon!"
"That must be Dr. Odamaki's voice! Let's go! Pikachu!" After saying that, he ran towards the direction of the sound.
"Ah?! Okay, come out!" Another girl's voice came.
"And then? What should I do next?"
"Quickly use a move!"
"What move?"
"Please say Water Gun!"
"Water Gun."
Mudkip sprayed a stream of water onto the girl's face.
Ash just arrived and saw this scene. If there were no surprises, this girl was Haruka.
Ash, Pikachu, and Dr. Odamaki were all speechless watching this. (ᇂ_ᇂ|||）
"Ah?! How could this happen!!" Haruka shouted.
"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt on the Poochyena!" Ash said, looking at Dr. Odamaki who was hanging on a tree because of the three Poochyena.
"Pika~chu~" Golden electricity flashed, directly scattering the Poochyena.
"Phew! Saved!" Dr. Odamaki breathed a sigh of relief, he was truly exhausted!
"Huh?! You are?" Dr. Odamaki got down from the tree and looked at Ash in confusion.
"I am Ash from Pallet Town, and this is my partner Pikachu!" "Pikachu~"
"Oh! You are Ash! Thank you so much! I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly! Let's go, let's go back to the Researcher first!" Dr. Odamaki laughed, then looked at Haruka, "And you Haruka, thank you for your trouble, it hasn't been long since we last met, you've become as beautiful as your mother!"
"No, I didn't help much either!" Haruka quickly waved her hand.
"You're here to choose your first Pokémon, right? Have you decided which one?"
"Ah?! That... not yet!" Haruka lowered her head, her two fingers constantly tapping. (◞‸◟ ）
The three walked towards the Researcher together!
"Hello! I am Haruka from Petalburg City!" Haruka came to Ash's side and introduced herself.
"Ah! Hello..." Ash hadn't finished speaking.
"Wahahaha!" At this moment, a burst of laughter came, interrupting Ash, a mechanical arm shot out, and at the same time, a giant robot like a battery appeared in front of them!
"Who are you?!" Dr. Odamaki and Haruka asked at the same time.
"Since you asked so sincerely."
"Then I will tell you with great compassion."
"It's you Team Rockets again, you're really persistent! Come out! Pidgeot, use Brave Bird! Pikachu, use Iron Tail to break the mechanical arm, then use Volt Tackle!"
"Pika~" After Pikachu broke the mechanical arm with Iron Tail, he used Volt Tackle and charged forward with Pidgeot!
Boom! The robot exploded, and accidentally hit Haruka's bicycle, thus completing the second bicycle killer mission!
"Hey wait! Satoshi, you're not playing fair, we haven't finished our lines yet!" "That's right! Meowth hasn't said a word yet!" "Wobbuffet (˃ʍ˂)~" "What a nasty feeling~"
Dr. Odamaki and Haruka hadn't even reacted before the battle was over!
"Ah! My bicycle! T^T" Haruka began to cry heartbrokenly.
"Ah! I'm sorry! I'll compensate you." "Pikapi~" Ash and Pikachu quickly apologized after recalling Pidgeot.
"Never mind, you didn't do it on purpose. But who are Team Rockets? And did that Meowth just speak?" Haruka was sad for a while, then waved her hand and asked curiously.
Dr. Odamaki also came over, very curious. He knew Team Rockets were a dark organization from the Kanto region, but a Meowth speaking was truly intriguing!
"Team Rockets are bad guys who steal other people's Pokémon! As for why Meowth can speak, it seems Meowth taught himself!" Ash explained.
"That's too much! They actually steal other people's Pokémon."
"Alright! Haruka, it's time for you to choose your first Pokémon!" After hearing about the Meowth incident, Dr. Odamaki said.
Then, he led the two into the Researcher!
"Okay! Haruka, start choosing your first Pokémon!" Dr. Odamaki took out three Poké Balls from his bag.
"Okay!"
"Alright! These contain beginner Pokémon - the first one is Treecko!"
What appeared was a green lizard with big yellow eyes!
But when Treecko looked at Haruka, it immediately made her shiver, and she kept backing away, "It's glaring at me!"
Uh! Is there a possibility it's just looking at you? Ash thought to himself.
"Then the second one - Mudkip!"
"But, Mudkip doesn't really listen to me!" Haruka took another step back, shaking her head quickly.
It's clearly a problem with your commands (￢_￢）
"Then, this is the last one - Torchic!"
It was the initial form of Blaziken, which defeated Old Spray - Torchic!!
The Torchic with three cowlicks on its head seemed to like Haruka very much, and ran directly to Haruka's feet, rubbing against her legs!
"So cute! Okay! You're the one, Torchic!" Haruka picked up Torchic and said happily.
"Chamo~ Chamo~" (=^▽^=)
"Here, this is a pokémon encyclopedia and six empty Poké Balls, do your best! You can definitely become a Pokémon Trainer who surpasses your father!" Dr. Odamaki saw that Haruka had made her choice, handed over the items and encouraged her.
"Then let's cheer each other on!" Ash said with a smile.
Haruka said reluctantly, "Yes!"
"That being said, I actually don't really want to be a Trainer!" Haruka muttered softly.
"Huh, what did you just say?"
"Ah! Nothing, haha, I'll work hard!"
Just as Ash was about to get up to say goodbye, Dr. Odamaki spoke, "You two need to register at the Pokémon Center to participate in the Hoenn League! And the nearest Pokémon Center is in Guchen Town, if you leave now, you should be able to get there by evening!"
"I understand, thank you Dr.!" Ash thanked him.
"Ah~ Thinking about walking there by myself makes me a little uneasy, I wish I had a bicycle!" Haruka sighed.
Hearing this, Ash's mouth twitched, and he quickly said, "How about we go together! We can look out for each other!"
"Yay!" Haruka jumped up happily!
"Pikapi~" Pikachu scratched the back of his head awkwardly.
Ash also knew it wasn't Pikachu's fault, it was destiny! Ash still liked the female lead of this generation very much, and traveling with such a cute girl would be lively, right!
"Alright! You two can look out for each other, do your best! Have a pleasant journey, and be careful on the way!"
"Got it! Thank you Dr. Odamaki! Then we're leaving!"
The two waved their hands and turned to leave!
