Paul put his hands in his pockets and walked down the long stairs.
The setting sun stretched his back very long.
"Paul."
Ash ran out of the door of League, stood at the top of the stairs, looked at Paul who was going down the stairs, held his knees with both hands, and shouted breathlessly.
Paul stopped, turned around, and looked at Ash on the stairs.
Ash took Pikachu and looked at Paul.
The two looked at each other speechlessly.
After a while, Paul spoke, "Infernape, it has become stronger."
Seeing the smile on the corner of Paul's mouth, Ash also laughed.
"Yes, it has become stronger."
Then he reacted and looked at Paul, "Are you ---- going to leave?"
Paul turned around and faced Ash above.
"I lost the game. This is no longer the place for me to stay. There is no point in continuing to stay here.
"Brother is--."
Inside League Conference, Cynthia stood in front of Brock and Dawn, looking at the back of Fang Yan, looking at it quietly for a while, and then said, "Fang Yan and I always believe that when any life meets other life, something new will always come out."
She recalled what happened to Ash and Paul along the way and laughed, "I believe something happened between the two of them."
"That's----bond."
Cynthia said, "I believe that given time, Paul and Ash will win Champion League, and I will look forward to that day and be prepared."
Fang Yan, who was walking in the shadow passage, put his finger on the wall and slid it as he walked.
Gengar They all follow the same pattern.
It's not just you, Cynthia, I'm also looking forward to it.
The moment he held that trophy.
Now, let me, as a teacher, handle the follow-up matters.
"I will launch a new challenge to Mr. Brandon."
Paul looked at Ash above and said.
He didn't feel that losing to Ash would be too uncomfortable. On the contrary, he felt that it would make him more motivated.
Although he does not approve of Ash's method, he respects his approach. There is no conflict between disapproval and respect.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Infernape becomes so powerful.
But he won't lose next time.
"That's it, then you have to work hard, Paul."
Ash smiled like Pokémon Day Care and cheered for Paul.
Paul was stunned for a moment, then hummed.
"Well, you too, be careful if you lose to me next time."
"Don't worry, I definitely won't."
Ash Clenched his fists.
Paul turned around and continued walking down.
"Paul."
Ash shouted behind him.
"Next time, let's fight again!"
(I found a lot of pictures, but the screenshots from the original drama are the best. Although they are very blurry, they are very reminiscent)
Paul raised his lowered head, and then showed a real smile.
The movements of his feet did not stop.
Watching Paul leave, Ash and Pikachu looked at each other, "We finally won, Pikachu."
"Pickup!"
"Not good! Infernape!"
Ash remembered Infernape and hurriedly rushed inside League with Pikachu.
Paul looked at the spiky-headed boy leaning on the big tree in front of him, with a Umbreon following at his feet.
"He always shows incredible strength."
Gary looked at Paul in front of him and said.
Paul nodded.
"I didn't expect you to lose too."
Gary accompanied Paul, and the two of them walked forward toward the sunset together.
"But I wouldn't be surprised at such a result."
Paul didn't answer, Gary was the one talking all the time.
Paul is very strong, which Gary agrees with very much.
Although he felt that Ash's blustery character was unconvincing to lose to him, but after getting along with him for a long time, he found that losing to him was not that difficult to accept.
"I hated him at first."
Paul suddenly said.
Gary stopped talking and listened quietly to Paul.
"He is like my brother. He is obviously a very strong trainer, but he still has to take care of some weak Pokémon----"
Gary couldn't help laughing when he thought of Ash's operations.
"Maybe it's because of this that he can bring out the potential of Pokémon."
Paul said.
Gary put his hands on the back of his head and walked forward.
"Where are you going next?"
"Go challenge Mr. Brandon and see if you can succeed this time."
"Mr. Brandon----"
Gary sighed, "Speaking of which, I also want to challenge you."
Paul turned his head and looked at the young man beside him who was accepted as a student by the store manager Fang Yan. He is also the grandson of the legendary Professor Oak. He is also very strong. He relied on some luck to win. I heard that he is also Ash's friend who grew up together?
"Go together?"
Gary heard Paul's invitation, hesitated for a moment, and then shook his head, "You know, I am a Pokémon scholar now. I like this profession. It was the Fang Yan store manager who told me that scholars and trainers do not conflict that I came to participate in League Conference."
He thought for a while, stopped, and said, "After watching the finals of Ash tomorrow, I will go to other areas to study more Pokémon, then conquer more Pokémon, challenge more Pokémon and trainers, and then make myself stronger."
Paul stopped and looked at Gary, and found that he stretched out his fist, "Paul, when the time comes, shall we fight again?"
Punch to the flesh!"
Thinking of the battle between myself and him, Arcanine and Drapion, Aggron and Blastoise, Electivire and Nidoqueen----
Is it a fist-to-fist fight----?
Paul stretched out his hand and touched Gary.
"Don't worry, I will definitely win next time."
After saying that, Paul turned around and walked forward without looking back.
"You guys are really confident."
Gary laughed, then turned around, "The result is still unknown, right, Umbreon."
"Booth~"
A stick of ice cream appeared in front of Paul, and a familiar voice sounded.
"Want one?"
Paul looked at Fang Yan sitting on the stone bench in the park, took the ice cream handed by Gengar, and said thank you.
Fang Yan looked at him and patted the empty seat next to him, "If you're not in a hurry, why don't you take a seat?"
Paul nodded, came and sat down next to Fang Yan.
Mime Jr., who was sitting on Fang Yan's shoulder, gave a thumbs up to Paul.
"Nini~"
Great~
Fang Yan pinched Mime Jr.'s little face, and then asked, "No fight?"
Paul took a bite of the ice cream and his teeth were frozen.
I don't know why store manager Fang Yan and the others still like to eat ice cream in this weather.
"To me----the third one is no different from the others."
Paul slowed down for a moment and spoke.
"Because you lost to Ash?"
Paul hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
"You really are."
Fang Yan smiled and said, "What are you going to do next?"
Watching Fang Yan eating the ice cream with big mouthfuls, Paul looked at the ice cream in his hand, thought about it, and took another bite.
Wrong? It doesn't seem that cold anymore.
"Go challenge Mr. Brandon and see if you can defeat him."
"What if we lose?"
Paul:----
You think I'm going to lose before we even fight, right?
"Then stay with him, learn and train with him, and then challenge again."
"Good choice."
Fang Yan snapped his fingers, "Don't you want to watch tomorrow's decisive battle?"
"----Yes."
Fang Yan nodded, then concentrated on eating the ice cream.
"Store manager."
Paul looked at Fang Yan and shouted.
"What's wrong?"
Fang Yan turned around and asked.
"Ash Can he---- win?"
Fang Yan smiled when he heard this, "Who knows----"
Fang Yan threw the wooden stick into the trash can, supporting the back of the stone chair with both hands, and raised his head, "According to his character, even if he can't win, he will not give up and challenge new areas, the new League----"
"Maybe one day, he can truly hold the championship trophy and become the League champion, right?"
Sure enough----
Does the Fang Yan store manager also think Ash can't win against Tobias?
"What about you? What are your plans if you defeat Brandon?"
Hearing Fang Yan's inquiry, Paul thought for a while and said, "I will continue my journey and continue to become stronger."
Fang Yan nodded deeply, "In that case, you might as well go to other areas to see more Pokémon."
Paul looked at Fang Yan, and Fang Yan continued, "For example, go to Unova Region, and Kalos Region, by the way, although Mega Evolution appeared in Hoenn Region, but it was Kalos Region who carried it forward. If you want to make your Mega Evolution more proficient, you can go to Kalos Region to learn, and Alola Region, Z-Move are also great for improving strength. Galar Region, you can ask the strongest champion for advice and feel Dynamax, Paldea Region If so, Terastallization is also possible, but I haven't been to Paldea Region yet. Of course, you can also go to Kanto Region, Johto Region and Hoenn Region."
Paul nodded, "I know, I will learn and master them."
"But you still have to remember that sentence. Regardless of any battle system, whether it is Mega Evolution, Z-Move, or Dynamax and Terastallization, the most important thing is the bond between the trainer and Pokémon."
"For example, our Sinnoh Region champion Miss Cynthia, even if she doesn't use Mega Evolution, she can easily defeat you now."
After Fang Yan finished speaking, he stood up and clapped his hands, "It seems like you are still full of fighting spirit, so I'm relieved.
"Don't worry, store manager, I won't lose confidence just because I lose a battle."
"Call the teacher."
Paul was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, wanted to speak, but finally swallowed it back.
Yo ho.
Paul Still shy?
Tsk tsk tsk.
"Go and rest, tomorrow is the finals, and then Lily of the Valley Conference will come to an end."
Fang Yan looked at Reggie running towards them, and said to Paul, "Someone is looking for you, so I will go back first."
After saying that Fang Yan turned and left.
"Paul."
Reggie came to Paul, looked at Paul sitting on the stone chair, and looked at him worriedly, "Are you okay?"
Paul looked at Reggie standing in front of him, holding his knees with his hands, panting.
He came to the scene?
She is also wearing an apron from Pokémon Day Care.
"Shouldn't you be in your own Pokémon Day Care?"
Paul asked.
Reggie touched his nose and said sheepishly, "Didn't I think this was your final? I wanted to come over and watch it live."
Paul stood up and said, "What's there to see? It's not the finals."
"You don't understand. For a brother, this is a game worth remembering, whether it's the finals or not."
Paul is speechless.
Finally, he walked past Reggie with an expressionless face.
"You can go back now to prevent your Pokémon Day Care and Pokémon from being taken care of."
Reggie was about to speak when he was interrupted by a sudden voice.
"Oh, by the way, if you have any problems that can't be solved, or you don't know what you should do, you can come to Pokémon Day Care, I'll be there."
He looked up and saw a young man standing under the streetlight on the opposite side of the road, waving and shouting.
There were also a few Pokémon following him.
Paul nodded.
"He is----"
Reggie looked at the young man who turned away and asked Paul curiously.
"Also the boss of Pokémon Day Care."
Paul thought for a while and said, "Like you, we are both powerful trainers."
Reggie opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but heard Paul continue to speak, "He is also an excellent ---- breeder?"
Reggie eyes widened.
After becoming a breeder himself, Paul has always been unwilling to admit that he is a breeder.
Today----
"I will follow your example and move on, unlike you who will just stay where you are."
After Paul finished speaking, he left without looking back.
The frantic steps under his feet caused him to quickly speed up his pace.
Reggie looked at Paul's back and wiped his slightly moist eyes.
This guy----
It's really----
He looked back at Fang Yan's leaving figure and said, "When the time comes, I will ask the boss of Pokémon Day Care. I must pay him a visit and thank him."
He believed that his brother's change might have been influenced by him.
"I will challenge Mr. Brandon again."
Paul's voice carried along with the wind.
"Hmm."
Reggie responded loudly, "I will go over and watch you defeat Mr. Brandon."
Standing at the door of League, a piece of ice cream suddenly appeared in front of Cynthia, and Fang Yan's smiling face appeared in her sight.
"Hmm~"
Cynthia smiled like a flower, took the ice cream, took a bite, and narrowed his eyes comfortably.
"I brought this specially for you, Gengar still wants to eat it secretly."
Gengar is giving the ice cream to Garchomp:???
It looked at the pile of ice cream flavors in its bag that it bought with money, raised its head and looked at Fang Yan, its chubby cheeks full of doubts.
You mean--I have a big bag of ice cream that I don't want to eat, so I'm going to steal her ice cream to eat?
You want me to take the blame when you have nothing to talk about?
Shivering!
Gengar Burning Jealousy, then tore open the packaging of four ice cream sticks and stuffed them into his mouth together.
Originally I only planned to eat one stick, but it's all because Fang Yan made me angry. I want to eat four sticks, finish them all, and leave him no leftovers, making him cry secretly in the middle of the night, huh!
"You're not afraid of freezing your teeth, kid."
Fang Yan tugged at the corner of Gengar's mouth.
"He obviously has a bag, but you still say he wants to eat mine? Taunt Divorce, Gengar, let's go and ignore this bad guy."
"Kou Jie"
That's it!
"That's right, uncle is the big bad guy."
As soon as Shauna finished speaking, the ice cream in his hand was snatched away by Fang Yan.
"Children are not allowed to eat ice cream."
Shauna:???
Zhishi was hesitating whether to hand over his ice cream to Fang Yan, when he saw Shauna suddenly hugging Fang Yan's thigh.
"Hee hee, Gengar is the big bad guy, and uncle is the best, best, best, good guy in the world and the entire universe."
Zhishi:----
Gengar:???
Cynthia was laughing so hard that tears almost came out.
Fang Yan:----
"You are really flexible and flexible! Little Shauna!"
Fang Yan gritted his teeth and poked Shauna's forehead, then returned the ice cream to her.
"This is what I call smart."
Shauna held the ice cream and started to eat it, and said proudly.
"Let's go home and have dinner."
Fang Yan Stand up straight, and then walk to the top first.
"What do you want to eat tonight? Tell me the menu and I'll do it myself----"
Gothitelle and Mime Jr. open their eyes wide.
"Help Mime Jr. and Gothitelle."
Phew~
Fang Yan was hung on a tree nearby.
"Koujie--"
Hahahahahahahaha.
Phew~
Gengar hangs next to Fang Yan.
??? Why should I hang on?
"Goth."
It hit my eyes.
Gothitelle clapped his hands and said calmly.
Gengar:???
Fang Yan and Gengar's eyes met.
Everyone saw the other side's gloating.
"Is it really okay to ignore them?"
The voice of Cynthia came from the distance.
"Goth."
It's okay, Dali is there.
"Dali?"
Cynthia was a little surprised, "Don't you know how to pull up the tree?"
Gothitelle suddenly remembered something and turned around suddenly.
Dali is following behind them carrying a big tree, with Fang Yan and Gengar hanging on the tree.
Gothitelle:----
A hundred secrets and a sparse, a hundred secrets and a sparse----
It patted its forehead.
It's all Fang Yan and Gengar's fault. I've been so busy lately that my head is not clear now.
Feeling the increasing horror on Gothitelle, Inner Focus, Fang Yan and Gengar all covered their mouths, lowering their heads and not daring to look at Gothitelle.
Fierce----
Bang!
"Goth."
Latias can hear it.
"Latias, you traitor!"
Fang Yan takes off directly.
