Chapter 115 Departure for the Orange Islands
"What kind of Pokémon is this?" Ash had crammed on information about Pokémon from the Kanto and Johto regions, but he still had no recollection of it.
This is a Pokémon with a white head and blue body that looks like a small otter.
Even showing the Pokédex doesn't show any information.
"It doesn't seem to be a Hoenn or Sinnoh Pokémon." Ash quickly took advantage of the little guy's curiosity as he looked around, and had Pikachu make his move.
"Pikachu, Thunderbolt!"
"Water~ Water~"
Before the little guy could react, he was electrocuted and turned into charcoal, but he was still quite energetic and immediately picked up the shell on his belly and shouted at Ash.
He just doesn't seem very smart.
"Sigh, one Suicune is enough for an energetic water-type idiot, but here comes another one."
Although he said that, Ash didn't hesitate at all and smashed three balls in a row.
It knocked the little otter's head off and successfully captured it into a Poké Ball.
Ash picked up the Poké Ball from the ground and saw the Pokémon's information on the system.
[Pokémon Name: Oshawott (Favored Partner)]
【种族值：体力：55；攻击：55；防御：45；特攻：63；特防：45；速度：45；总和308】
【Ability: Torrent (When HP is less than 1/3, the power of Water-type moves increases by 1.5 times)】
[Skills: Impact; Water Gun]
[Favorability Rating: 30% (You possess qualities it likes)]
【Intimacy Level: 20% (You're still relatively unfamiliar with me)】
[Description: Lively and impulsive, this is one of the starter Pokémon of the Unova region. The scallops that grow on its abdomen are not only used in battle, but also to cut open hard berries.]
"If it's one of the starter Pokémon, then it should be pretty good." Actually, Ash still wanted a Pokémon that could be used as a means of transportation on water.
"But that's not bad either. You can cut through hard tree fruits, so from now on you'll be my Minister of Vegetable Cutting."
The Minister of Fire is Charizard, while the Oshawott, still unconscious in its Poké Ball, is unaware that its fate has been casually decided by Ash.
He immediately used up more Dark-type Pokémon Battle Tickets.
Battle tickets with specific attributes like these allow you to choose a Pokémon randomly or manually.
However, the selection is limited to a given range, and legendary Pokémon will not be included.
"Should we try our luck with randomness?" Ash released Machamp, Forsaken, Clefairy, and Beedrill.
"I remember Darkrai is a legendary Dark-type Pokémon, so come on, my Darkrai!"
The Dark-type Battle Ticket in his hand turned into light and dissipated, and a blinding white light appeared on the field once again.
Unfortunately, it wasn't Darkrai that appeared, but a Pokémon with white fur, red eyes, and a bow-like horn on the right side of its head.
"Absol." This time, it's a Pokémon that Ash knows.
"Well, white hair and red eyes, it's not a bad choice to attack the Chinese."
Absol, who had inexplicably arrived in an unfamiliar place, immediately showed a wary expression.
Absol is quite a tragic Pokémon.
Because it can sense impending disasters with its horns, this kind-hearted creature will appear to warn humans of the danger.
But this led people to mistakenly believe that it brought disaster, and thus it was hated.
"What a pitiful child, I'll take care of him then." Ash waved his hand, and the ferocious Pokémon around him immediately launched a collective attack.
"Go ahead and treat it well!"
"Pikachu?" (Does she love him that much?)
This Absol also appears to have a history of being attacked over a long period of time.
Despite being surrounded by so many skills, he was able to skillfully dodge them.
With a nimble shake of its head, a red and black energy wave flashed from the large horn on its head and shot towards the ground in front of Ash and his friends.
A large amount of dust was raised, obscuring everyone's view.
Immediately afterwards, another energy wave composed of many black circles was emitted from the dust.
And the target of the attack was none other than Ash.
"A wave of evil, but unfortunately, it chose the wrong target!"
Combat tactics that disrupt vision are useless against Ash, who possesses waveguide perception.
Letting the evil energy surge hit him, Ash walked directly into the smoke and casually grabbed something with his large hand.
They easily clamped down on Absol's neck as he moved rapidly.
As it stared in shock, Ash revealed a devilish smile and pressed the Poké Ball against its forehead.
"Please continue to guide me from now on, Absol!"
As the Poké Ball drew ever closer, it tried to struggle with a flurry of attacks, but it was all in vain.
"Ab, Ab~"
Thump! Absol transformed into a streak of red light and was successfully subdued.
"Alright, I've tamed the white-haired, red-eyed one!"
"Pikachu!"
Ash and Pikachu hold up Absol's Poké Ball and strike their standard poses together.
It had been a long time since he'd struck a pose, and this made Ash extremely happy.
[Ding! New side quest triggered "Calamity and Nightmare God": Please raise Absol's affinity and intimacy to the maximum value]
[Rewards: 4000 League Coins; Special Attack +2; Free Attribute Points +3; Absol Mega Evolution Stone +1; A message about Darkrai]
"Darkrai?!" Ash thought Darkrai was out of the question, but he didn't expect there was still a chance.
After using up his battle tickets, Ash gave his subordinates a few final words at the gym before returning to Pallet Town via the Teleporter.
But as soon as she got home, she had to face Xia's low mood.
"You've already decided to come back, why not stay a few more days in your sister Lijia's wonderful embrace?"
"Rika was only there for two days. I was really doing something important." Unfortunately, no matter how Ash explained, Misty was still a little angry.
But it's alright, Xiaoxia is an energetic girl.
That evening, Xiaozhi mercilessly poured a full amount of energy into her.
She immediately understood the benefits of having Rika, and returned to her normal self the next day.
They happily took Ash to Professor Oak's lab, where the celebration party the professor had promised would be held.
Because it was something to be proud of that Ash won the League Championship, Hanako's mother invited everyone in town to attend.
Only Professor Oak's research facility can accommodate so many people.
Of course, the wealthy Professor Oak also covered all the expenses for hosting the banquet.
"Let me take advantage!" Ash's affection for Professor Oak increased by 5.
After the banquet, Professor Oak took Ash and his friends to the research lab.
"The thing Ash told you before was that I wanted to ask you to go to Daikan Island in the Orange Islands for me."
"I need your help to retrieve the Mysterious Poké Ball that Professor Ulrich, the Pokémon scholar on the island, obtained."
Upon hearing that it was a Poké Ball, Misty asked, puzzled.
"Professor, since it's a Poké Ball, why don't you just ask her to teleport you?"
Professor Oak waved his hand helplessly.
"The problem is, there's nothing I can do. As soon as Shigeru returned to Pallet Town, he immediately set off on another trip. I can only ask you for help."
"No problem, leave it to me, Doctor."
Ash wasn't planning to refuse anyway; he figured he could go on a trainer's trip to the Orange Islands while helping out.
[Ding! A new side quest "Rainbow Feather and Silver Feather" has been triggered: Please go to Dr. Uchiki's lab to obtain the 'GS Ball'.]
[Rewards: Alliance Coins +2000; Free Attribute Points +2; Special Secret: GS Ball Crafting Method]
"What's the GS Ball for?" The question flashed through Ash's mind, but he quickly put it out of his mind.
Then, with their mother's instruction to buy local specialties and send them home, Ash and Misty officially set off for the Orange Islands.
