Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: Starting the Victory Road

[Script Main Quest Triggered: The Indigo Pinnacle!]

[Quest Content: Grow together with your partner Pikachu, participate in this year's Kanto League Indigo League Conference, and ultimately win the championship. Pikachu must be used in the final match!]

[Quest Reward: Golden Lightning Badge (Pikachu-exclusive bound item) — Upon use, all of Pikachu's abilities will undergo an unknown positive mutation!]

[3x high-grade rare candy — When used by a Pokémon below Lv.70, its level will increase by 1!]

[1x Mid-Grade Potential Enhancement Berry — When used by a Pokémon with potential below the Champion level, its potential level will permanently increase by 1!]

Roy quickly scanned the quest details, his pupils contracting slightly.

The main quest was here.

And right from the start, the goal was set directly on becoming the League Champion!

A slight curve formed at the corner of Roy's mouth.

Interesting.

Rewriting the original script's frustrating atmosphere of constant regrets and repeated failures, heading straight for the championship from the start.

This was very much to his taste.

What excited him even more were the quest rewards.

high-grade rare candy, which could quickly raise levels, was a top-tier item for saving training time.

The Mid-Grade Potential Enhancement Berry was an even rarer item that could break the upper limit of a Pokémon's potential!

But what Roy cared about most was that 'Golden Lightning Badge.'

Exclusive to Pikachu... positive mutation of abilities... He glanced at the Pikachu on his shoulder, which was currently rubbing its small face against his neck and letting out comfortable purring sounds.

The description of that [Rare Ability: Movie Star] on the panel was still fresh in his mind.

A chance to trigger during battle; once triggered, it ignores levels and types, allowing it to go toe-to-toe with any opponent... This ability was truly strong, but it was also a major trap.

It could potentially slay gods and Buddhas, or it could be knocked over by a Caterpie on the side of the road.

The uncertainty was too high.

If this 'positive mutation' could turn that 'chance to trigger' into a 'controlled trigger,' or even a 'permanent partial effect'... Roy's eyes grew burning hot.

Then Pikachu's future would be limitless!

Champion?

That was just the starting point!

This championship had to be won!

Roy made his decision in an instant.

"Roy? What are you spacing out for?"

Professor Oak's voice pulled him back to reality.

The old man had leaned in, looking at the Pikachu on his shoulder with lingering fear, then couldn't help but look Roy up and down.

"You kid... are you really okay?"

"I'm fine."

Roy stood up and casually stroked Pikachu's small head.

"Pika~"

Pikachu squinted its eyes comfortably, its ears twitching.

Professor Oak watched this harmonious scene with an expression as if he'd seen a ghost.

A few minutes ago, this little tyrant was flashing lightning and thunder, vowing to shock everything in sight, but now it was as well-behaved as a house cat?

How on earth did this kid do it?

"Professor, my pokédex and poké balls."

Roy reminded him.

"Oh! Right, right!"

Professor Oak finally remembered the business at hand and hurriedly took two items from a nearby cabinet.

A red folding pokédex.

Five empty red-and-white poké balls.

"This is your Trainer pokédex; it's already registered. The poké balls are the standard allotment. If you don't have enough, you can buy more at shops everywhere."

Professor Oak handed the items to Roy, then couldn't help but look at Pikachu again.

"Though... it seems you might not have a use for poké balls?"

"Not for the time being."

Roy took the pokédex and poké balls, stowing them in his backpack.

"Pikachu prefers to stay outside."

"Pika pika!"

Pikachu immediately chirped in agreement, even curling its lip at Professor Oak in a show of defiance.

The Professor gave a bitter laugh and shook his head.

"Alright then... since it's your partner now, you can arrange things however you like."

He paused, his expression becoming slightly more serious.

"Roy, you've chosen an unusual path. This Pikachu has great potential, but it's also very special. Treat it well."

"I will."

After bidding farewell to Professor Oak, Roy began his Pokémon training journey... at the exit of Pallet Town.

At the fork leading to the wild roads, a beautiful figure was waiting expectantly.

Delia had indeed changed out of that figure-hugging black silk outfit and put on a set of light gray sportswear.

But some things couldn't be hidden by loose clothing.

Her pert fullness stretched the sports top into soul-stirring curves, and beneath her slender waist, the sports pants wrapped around the rounded, firm lines of her hips, her long legs straight and powerful.

The ripe charm of a mature woman, mixed with the excitement of an impending journey, created an exceptionally alluring Aura.

"Roy!"

Seeing the approaching figure, Delia's eyes lit up, and she waved vigorously.

The ears of the Pikachu on Roy's shoulder twitched, and it looked over curiously.

Delia jogged to meet him, her face flushed with excitement.

But soon, she noticed the little yellow fellow on Roy's shoulder.

"Eh? A Pikachu?"

Delia blinked, a bit confused.

"Roy, for a rookie's starter Pokémon... was Pikachu an option? I remember Professor Oak prepared Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle."

"A small accident."

Roy explained simply.

"Pikachu is also very strong, and it suits me perfectly."

"Pikachu!"

Pikachu gave a supportive cry, a few sparks of electricity popping from its cheeks.

Delia looked at the rapport between the human and Pokémon; although she still didn't quite understand, she quickly put her questions aside.

She excitedly took off the large backpack from her back and pulled a small jar out of a side pocket.

"Here! The Ketchup you asked me to prepare!"

It was a small red jar with a very familiar label.

Roy took it and unscrewed the lid.

A rich, sweet and sour aroma of tomatoes drifted out.

"If you like eating Ketchup, you're in for a treat from now on!"

Delia puffed out her chest, looking a bit proud.

"My skill at making Ketchup is top-notch! I can make all sorts of flavors!"

"I'm looking forward to it."

Roy smiled and crouched down.

He held the open Ketchup jar in front of Pikachu.

"Come, try this."

"Pika?"

Pikachu tilted its head, its dark, beady eyes looking at the bright red sauce in the jar, then at Roy.

It reached out a small paw, cautiously dabbed a bit, and brought it to its mouth.

Its pink little tongue gave it a lick.

The next second, Pikachu's eyes lit up like light bulbs with a'shua'!

"Pika—!!!"

It let out a cry of extreme surprise, its whole little body shivering with excitement.

Its two small paws impatiently hugged the jar as it buried its head inside and began to lap it up in large gulps.

"Pika~ Pikachu~ Pika pi~~"

While eating, it made sounds of ultimate satisfaction, its little tail wagging happily from side to side.

It looked as if it had discovered the most precious treasure in the world.

Roy watched, smiling inwardly.

Just as he thought. He remembered that Pikachu had an almost obsessive love for Ketchup.

Using this to build rapport was absolutely first-rate.

"It likes eating it that much?"

Delia also crouched down, watching the devouring Pikachu with curiosity.

The Eevee at her feet leaned in, elegantly sniffed the Ketchup jar, and licked a tiny bit.

"Bui~"

Eevee blinked, savoring the taste.

The taste was okay, sweet and sour.

But... it wasn't worth going this crazy over, was it?

It looked up at the yellow-skinned rodent that seemed ready to crawl into the jar, elegantly flicked its tail, and expressed its lack of understanding.

The jar of Ketchup was soon empty.

Pikachu licked its paws unsatisfied, then licked the rim of the jar.

Then it looked up, its large, watery, sparkling eyes full of longing as it looked at Roy.

"Pika... Pikachu?"

Is there more? I want more!

Roy smiled and rubbed its small head.

"There will be some every day from now on, but you can't eat too much at once."

"Pika~"

Pikachu nodded contentedly, affectionately rubbing against Roy's palm.

At this moment, the last trace of wariness and detachment in its heart from its long isolation completely vanished.

This human understands me!

He gave me freedom and gave me such delicious food!

Going with him is definitely the right choice!

"Alright, time to head out."

Roy stood up and took another backpack handed to him by Delia.

Delia also put on her own backpack.

She stood before Roy, looking up at him, her body trembling slightly with excitement.

Even her breathing was a bit hurried.

Her fullness rose and fell with her breath, and beneath the collar of her tracksuit, a glimpse of an alluring snowy-white cleavage was faintly visible.

"Roy..."

Delia's voice trembled slightly, her eyes appearing as if covered by a mist.

"I'm finally... finally going to become a Trainer."

"I... I'm so excited, my whole body is so excited..."

As she spoke, her cheeks grew redder and redder.

Her hands unconsciously twisted together, and her legs also moved together, rubbing against each other.

A longing and passion accumulated over many years, mixed with her dependence and admiration for the man before her, left her in a state of feverish heat.

She needed something to release, to confirm, to soothe, to suppress.

Delia raised her moist eyes, looking at Roy both shyly and boldly.

Her voice was so soft it was almost inaudible, yet it carried a seductive tremor.

"Roy... can... can we kiss?"

"Just once... I need..."

She didn't finish her sentence.

Roy had already reached out, encircling her slender and soft waist.

With a slight pull, he brought her entire person into his arms.

"Mm~!"

Delia let out a short, soft cry.

Roy lowered his head and kissed her soft, moist lips.

"Mmm...!"

Delia's eyes instantly widened, her body stiffening for a moment.

But the next second, she completely softened.

Her arms involuntarily wrapped around Roy's neck, and she stood on her tiptoes, responding passionately.

This kiss began with a hint of testing and gentleness.

But soon, it became intense.

Sweet moans escaped from Delia's nose, her body becoming softer and softer until she was practically hanging onto Roy.

So good~ So comfortable~

Delia's mind went blank, leaving only her most primal sensations.

Nearby, Eevee once again tilted its head in confusion.

"Bui?"

Weren't they discussing Ketchup and the trip?

Why was her master's mouth locked with this man's again?

And they were biting so vigorously... Humans are truly difficult creatures to understand.

Eevee decided to stop watching, elegantly walking to the side to groom its fur.

As for Pikachu... it was hugging the empty Ketchup jar, its little tongue working hard to scrape the last residue from the walls.

It was eating with total abandon.

It paid no attention at all to the passionate kissing scene happening beside it.

After a long time, their lips parted.

Delia's cheeks were flushed, her eyes dreamy, as she leaned against Roy's chest, panting slightly.

"Haah... haah..."

Her whole body was weak, as if her bones had been removed.

But her spirit was unusually excited.

"That's... that's enough..."

Delia's voice was hoarse and charming.

"If we keep kissing... I'm afraid I won't be able to stop myself... wanting to do it right here in the wild..."

She didn't finish, but her bright red ears and moist eyes said it all.

Roy patted her back.

"Let's go, it's a long road."

"Mm..."

Delia left his embrace reluctantly, tidying her messy clothes and hair.

The spring-like desire in her eyes hadn't faded, but it was replaced by a bit more steadiness and determination...

The city closest to Pallet Town was Viridian City, and it would take a few days at a leisurely pace. Between the two places lay a vast forest, home to many low-level Pokémon. It was essentially a starting zone, excellent for grinding levels.

Not long after Roy and Delia entered the forest, the benefits of Roy's Aura Power became apparent. The Aura of a Pokémon appeared within Roy's perception...
