"That's...Nastina's beach house?"
Moe recognized who was attacked immediately, "She is my rival, and also my creditor."
"I owed her some money before, and she wanted to take my boat away to pay off the debt. It can be said that she is the richest person on the entire beach."
So, is that why the Rockets are targeting you?
Ash recognized it as well.
In the original version, his group accidentally drove Moe's ship and collided with the Rocket Team's machine Gyarados that was lurking on the seabed and preparing to land.
Since both were damaged, Ash and his friends worked for Moe to pay off their debts, while the Rocket trio worked for Nastina to save enough money to repair the Gyarados machine.
He was supposed to be the part-time boss of Team Rocket, but now he has become the target of attack because his machine Gyarados was not damaged.
Fate is truly indescribable.
"Want to stop them?"
Xiaogang and Misty originally wanted to help save people, but after hearing this, they realized that Nastina didn't seem like a good person either.
They all turned their eyes to Ash.
"Don't worry about them."
The latter simply spread his hands and said, "Letting bad guys like them fight each other is actually a contribution to society."
"That's right!"
Suddenly, a slightly ostentatious voice came from behind everyone:
"I didn't expect you to have such an understanding, Ash. It's really rare. You are worthy of being regarded as a strong rival by me."
"Gary..."
Without even looking, Ash could tell who the voice belonged to.
"You're here too?"
"and..."
Ash turned around and saw Gary in his sunny beach clothes and a group of girlfriends that he brought with him wherever he went.
"Wow, there are so many beautiful big sisters!"
When Xiaogang, who likes beautiful women, saw her, his passive skill was immediately triggered and his two squinting eyes began to light up.
"Who is this, Ash?"
Misty glanced at Gary, who had a coquettish look on his face, and asked.
"His name is Gary. He is my friend since Arnold, and he is also the new Trainer who started from Pallet Town with me."
Ash briefly introduced himself, and then gave an accurate evaluation: "You still love to show off."
"What do you know? This is called showing off one's personal style and character. Of course, your old-fashioned style is incomprehensible!"
Gary is always harsh with his words.
However, when he heard Ash calling him a friend who grew up with Arnold, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
"I only know that you have used all your skills to seduce girlfriends, and your training in Pokémon is far from enough."
Ash didn't indulge him, and a casual remark almost broke his defense.
"What did you say?!"
Gary's hair was about to explode, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It's just one Nidoking that I tamed, don't be so proud!"
"The Pokémon I've captured in this time are no worse than yours!"
Gary stood there with his neck stiff, saying stubbornly: "If you don't agree, let's have a competition!"
"Let's have a duel with the Pokémon we captured after leaving Pallet Town!"
"Let's see who has better taming and Breeder abilities."
Leaving Pallet Town... doesn't this directly exclude my own Pikachu and Nidoking?
It seems that Gary is not such a fool after all. He even knows how to set screening criteria for himself.
But... do you think you can defeat me like this?
How naive.
"Okay, but..."
Gary was delighted at first, then startled: "But what?"
"But since you have already set the conditions, the winner and loser will be chosen by me."
Although in battle, especially with key characters in the plot like Gary, the chances of items popping out are greater and of higher levels.
But he can't just fight whenever he wants, there still has to be some stakes.
Especially...
The other party drives a luxury car every day and parades around the city with a group of beautiful women. He is very cool.
Ash himself would not let go unless he took advantage of the opportunity to kill the person who had come to his door.
"Is it just a jackpot? That's no problem."
Gary, who thought he was going to do something, heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Normal outdoor Trainer battles also require a staking prize."
"I won't deny this!"
Gary raised his index finger and shook it in assurance.
"That's fine with me."
Ash nodded: "What's the score?"
"Three against three!"
Gary made up his mind immediately, "I feel sorry for you because you haven't collected all six Pokémon yet. It would be embarrassing if you can't get enough Pokémon halfway through."
"Don't worry about that. I have already collected all six Pokémon."
"Really? It seems like you're not far from following in my footsteps... Let's go to the beach, there's a special stadium there."
In this world, there is no shortage of Pokémon battles anywhere.
"Besides, I have already found a professional referee there, and he is waiting there!"
"Professional referee?"
Xiaogang, who originally wanted to act as a referee, stepped back again. Ash couldn't help but be curious:
"Who is it?"
...…
"Of course it's me!"
Next to the Beach Stadium, Professor Oak, wearing slippers and a sunny beach outfit, stood with his hands behind his back.
He looked at the two outstanding young people in front of him who walked out of his small town with a smile.
