Pokémon: Newborn Ash Ketchum, starting from Hoenn

"Little Shishi, now is the time! Use Jet Fire!"

After bidding farewell to Miss Karunori, Xiaozhi and his friends walked through the woods and found a Pokémon Center to rest for a while.

Now that the Triple Crown Satellite Masters Advanced Tournament has ended, I believe that the Kalos League Conference will be held soon. There is not much time left for Xiaozhi. Fortunately, he is not far from Yingxue City now.

As soon as he arrived at the Pokémon Center, Ash received a challenge from a passerby, who was using a Gigantic.

The little lion let out a childish roar, and hot flames gushed out and instantly devoured the giant mantis. With four times the restraint, it directly beat the opponent and made it lose its combat ability.

After the other party quickly took back the Claw Mantis, he bowed slightly to Xiaozhi, and ran into the Pokémon Center to treat his Pokémon.

Xiaozhi smiled and touched the little lion's head. After giving it some encouragement, he took it back.

"that is not?"

The familiar voice sounded again, and Shota appeared in front of them, "Long time no see, how are you all doing?"

"Isn't this Shota?" Xiaozhi still recognized this hardworking and down-to-earth junior. He didn't expect to meet him again before they arrived in Yingxue City.

After asking, it turned out that Shota had just come from Yingxue City. He had already challenged the Yingxue Gym and got the gym badge! This shows how fast he progressed. Of course, if Xiaozhi had not been delayed by various things during the journey, he would have successfully obtained the Yingxue Gym badge a long time ago.

He opened the gym collection box, and sure enough, he had even obtained the Fairy Badge of the Aromatherapy Gym. Now he had collected eight badges and qualified to participate in the Kalos League Conference before Xiaozhi.

"The last time Xiaozhi showed me your badge, I made up my mind to try my best to catch up with you!" Shota also learned that Xiaozhi had not challenged any gyms recently, so there were only seven so far.

Xiaozhi looked into his eyes and felt that he was becoming more stable. "You seem to have become much stronger!"

"That's right!" Shota was very excited to get Xiaozhi's approval, "Xiaozhi, can you please play against me again? Let's play three-on-three!"

Xiaozhi would not refuse the invitation to a battle, and now they were standing on the battle field.

"First, the double scabbards, please!" Standing at the battle seat, Shota was the first to send out Pokémon, but he didn't expect that his single scabbard had already evolved.

Now all you need to do is use the Dark Stone again to complete the final evolution, Aegisblade!

Xiaozhi smiled at this and waved his hand, "It's decided to be you, Shieldblade!"

As soon as the words fell, Hoopa's halo appeared on the field, and a cold ghostly aura emanated from it. With a whoosh, Xiaozhi's Shining Shieldblade appeared on the field! The terrifying ghostly aura was frightening, as if it was an evil ghost from the netherworld, making people shudder!

"This is a Shiny Aegis. Xiaozhi really has a lot of rare Pokémon!" Seeing the appearance of Shiny Aegis, Shota couldn't help but exclaimed, "Double Scabbards, let's go! Use all your strength from the beginning and use Cleave!"

The two swords were unsheathed, and it actually put the hilts together, spinning and slashing towards the shield sword monster.

Xiaozhi and Aegislash quietly waited for the attack to come. The rotating sword blade slashed on the King's Shield in front of Aegislash, but did not repel it at all.

Xiaozhi's eyes were sharp, and he said calmly, "Shota, watch out! This is how you use the sword, split it!"

Before he finished speaking, the sharp sword of the Shining Shield Sword Monster was instantly unsheathed. The sword light froze the fourteen continents, and the sharp sword light immediately chopped the double scabbards to the ground, making them lose their combat ability.

"Double scabbards, thank you!" Shota quickly put the double scabbards back into the Poké Ball, and took out a notebook to write something on it. "I accept this experience!"

Xiaozhi also casually let the Shining Shieldsword return to the spirit world, quietly waiting for him to finish recording his insights from the sword just now.

"It's your turn!" Shota didn't let Satoshi wait too long. After taking notes, he sent out the second Pokémon, a big blue lobster - Scorpionfish!

Xiaozhi also took out a Poké Ball and threw it out, "It's decided to be you, Shrimp!"

Satoshi also sent out a Steelix, but the one Satoshi sent out was obviously much bigger than Shota's, and its strength was at the top of the gym, and it was only one step away from being a quasi-king.

Shota was not one to be careless, he raised his hand and shouted, "Steel Cannon Shrimp, use the crab claws to hammer!"

Seeing Shota's Shrimp Cannon Arms rushing over, Xiaozhi smiled and shook his head, "We also use the Crab Claw Hammer!"

The strength of Xiaozhi's Cannonball Shrimp is much higher than that of Shota. A blue stream of water condensed on the dragon's cannon arm, which knocked the Cannonball Shrimp that rushed towards him directly into the sky.

"Oh no, Cannon Shrimp!"

Shota exclaimed, a trace of nervousness and worry on his face. However, he did not give up easily, with a determined light flashing in his eyes, and shouted to the steel cannon arm shrimp in the sky: "Calm down, use Dragon Wave!"

Xiaozhi raised the corner of his mouth slightly and snorted coldly: "Water Dragon Attack!"

As Xiaozhi gave the order, Xiaozhi's Cannon Shrimp immediately used the combination skill - Water Dragon Attack. A huge stream of water gushed out from the dragon head cannon arm, instantly forming a giant dragon composed of water, rushing towards Shota's Cannon Shrimp at an astonishing speed.

At the same time, Shota's Steel Cannon Shrimp was not to be outdone. He gathered all his strength and released a powerful dragon wave.

However, when the two energy dragons collided, the energy dragon released by Shota's Steel Cannon Arm Shrimp was easily swallowed by the water dragon!

The water dragon's attack was unstoppable, breaking through the defense of the steel cannon shrimp and slamming into it fiercely. The steel cannon shrimp let out a painful cry, lost its balance, fell from the air, and hit the ground in front of Shota heavily, splashing a cloud of dust.

Shota hurried over to check on the Steel Cannon Shrimp, only to see that its eyes were closed and it had lost its ability to fight.

"The combination of skills and the super launcher is really terrifying. This is a good experience!" Shota quickly recorded it, and then took the Cannon Shrimp back. "Cannon Shrimp, thank you for your hard work. Leave the next battle to us!"

Then he threw out the last Poké Ball, "It's your turn, Lizard King!"

"I want to use this battle to let Xiaozhi see our growth!" Shota knew that he would lose, but the appearance of the Lizard King was the real highlight.

He is very aware of his shortcomings. Although he has collected eight badges, he will not be proud and complacent. His opponent is his admired goal, Satoshi, and he hopes to prove to Satoshi that he can stand on his own.

He wants to gain Xiaozhi's recognition and then defeat Xiaozhi!

"You seem to be having random thoughts! But you can only play a good game if you focus on the battle and enjoy it!" Xiaozhi smiled and threw out the third Poké Ball, "Flamebird, it's definitely you!"

This time, Xiaozhi sent out the native bird of the Kalos region - Flamewing. With the training of Moltres, its strength has reached the top of the gym.
