At Ash's words, Shaymin raised its head.
"I never asked you to do that. You decided that yourselves."
"What did you say?!" Ash's eyes widened. He had never imagined that after they brought it here, not only would they get no thanks, but they would even be accused of meddling!
Even after traveling for so long, he had never met such an ungrateful Pokémon!
Ignoring Ash's shock, Dawn took a cookie out of her waist pouch and offered it to Shaymin.
"You must not have had enough to eat earlier. Want something now? I made this myself. It's really tasty!"
Sure enough, Shaymin sniffed it from its hospital bed. After checking that the food was safe and taking in its aroma, it swallowed the cookie in one bite. But no sooner had it gone down than it tipped its head back again.
"It tasted so-so."
Now everyone could tell that this fellow had a rather awkward personality.
After all, it had just looked as though it found the cookie delicious, yet such thankless words had come out of its mouth. Even now, after being treated, it showed no intention of thanking anyone.
This was no longer just a question of gratitude. It really didn't know what was good for it!
Still, Ash and the others were kindhearted and didn't dwell on it. They simply asked, "Where did you come from?"
Shaymin shook its head. "Getting knocked around was awful. Shaymin doesn't want to remember. Take Shaymin to the flower field."
Before anyone could speak, Shaymin continued in a half-commanding tone, "Shaymin has to get to the flower field!"
Honestly, it was being rather unreasonable. They had only just helped it, yet it spoke to them in that tone, as though it were perfectly entitled to.
This made Xia You frown,
