Chapter 302 Actions that could not be accomplished in a year
Is this a unique skill created by the two of them, the only one of its kind in the world?
Seeing Ash walk up to his Primeape and squat down to gently stroke its head, Darkrai seemed to be touched.
Is it true that one person cannot accomplish something?
"How about it?"
Xiao Zhi smiled and stood up.
His tone was calm, but if you listened carefully, you could hear a slight hint of anticipation.
"Want to come along?"
"..."
Together with humans?
Darkrai had considered this possibility before, as everyone who came into contact with it carried various distracting thoughts, which it could clearly sense.
It hated that feeling, like being used as a tool by someone.
That's not pure. Rather than being bound by something you don't even want to be, it's better to wander the world alone and feel more at ease.
And what about Ash?
It would be impossible to do it without any ulterior motive.
However, Darkrai is not entirely pure in Ash's eyes either.
Perhaps both of them were guided by fate, which led to their meeting and battle on Crescent Island. After the battle, they discovered something new that Darkrai gained a great deal from.
At least in the past, it never felt that ordinary Pokémon could pose any threat to it, but after this battle, its views changed.
"..."
Darkrai didn't answer immediately, but instead lowered its head and silently looked at its hands, then raised its head to meet Ash's gaze.
"Don't worry about that."
Xiao Zhi waved his hand dismissively and said.
"Your ability to give people nightmares is mostly blocked by Poké Balls. Once you're put into a Poké Ball, your ability will only affect me."
Upon hearing this, Darkrai's eyes flashed with disappointment for a moment. Just as it was about to get up and leave, Ash, as if suddenly remembering something, added in a tone of sudden realization:
"Oh! I almost forgot! This only applies to regular Poké Balls. Higher-level Poké Balls can completely seal your abilities, so even if I keep them with me, it won't have any effect on me."
"..."
Darkrai stopped and turned around, as if to confirm whether Ash was lying or not.
But no matter how it looks at it, all it can see is Ash's unwavering determination to become its companion.
With that thought in mind, Darkrai no longer hesitated and came to Ash's side, extending his hand to him.
Xiao Zhi simply smiled slightly upon seeing this.
"Nice to meet you, Darkrai..."
Ash took Darkrai's hand.
Such a simple action is something Darkrai couldn't accomplish even after a century; it's an action he couldn't even dream of.
Just today.
On the very day he first met Ash.
Darkrai finally made this move, finally finding someone to travel with in this vast land.
From this day forward, it will no longer be alone. Its life, which may never end, will motivate it to accompany its companion to the very end, protecting and helping him throughout its life.
The moon quietly peeked out from behind the dark clouds, casting its gentle moonlight, which fell in scattered spots on this neglected wasteland.
Silver-white became the dominant color of the night.
Ash took out his Poké Ball and let it lie quietly in his palm.
Without any hesitation, Darkrai tapped the Baby Ball lightly with the back of his hand.
The red light flashed, but the Poké Ball didn't shake at all; it remained lying in Ash's palm like a calm lake.
"O~"
The moment Darkrai was recalled, Primeape finally collapsed to the ground, unable to hold on any longer.
This battle has taken a huge toll on it.
Its stamina was already exhausted, but with its immense drive, indomitable spirit, and backbone, Infernape managed to withstand the impact of Shadow Ball explosions time and time again.
And he was able to endure the stiffness and pain in his body, and still manage to throw a jab that was in no way inferior to his peak performance.
However, the reason it was able to do this was because it was unwilling to fall in front of Darkrai for the time being.
To fall before such a gifted opponent is like telling someone that all their past efforts have been in vain, that no matter how hard they try, they can't defeat those well-born and gifted opponents.
That feeling was the worst.
"You've had a tough time. How was the battle against Darkrai?"
“O…”
The fiery monkey's cries carried a hint of helplessness.
No matter how much it disagreed with Darkrai, it couldn't deny that Darkrai's strength was simply too great. In fact, what it had shown today was probably not even its full power, because its aura had been surging ever since.
If it chooses to avoid a direct confrontation the first time, it will not return to its calm state; its power will continue to increase.
"You must remember the feeling of today's battle, especially the feeling of throwing a punch in the Absolute Defense Domain. If you can master this feeling, even without the help of the wave guide, I believe you can achieve this directly."
"O!"
The fiery monkey nodded solemnly.
Primeape will unconditionally believe everything Ash says.
Xiao Zhi gently patted its slightly prickly head again.
The next second, the Poké Ball in my hand turned red and began to sway gently.
I almost forgot that I already have six Pokémon with me.
When Ash took out his Pokédex to choose which Poké Ball to send back to Professor Oak's lab, he simply smiled and sent Darkrai's Poké Ball back without any hesitation.
There's nothing I can do; he hasn't had a proper night's sleep tonight.
A regular Poké Ball can't completely seal Darkrai's abilities, so even though the bond has just been established, he can only send Darkrai back tonight and ask Professor Oak to help him get a better Poké Ball tomorrow.
……
at the same time.
Kanto region.
Zhenxin Town.
At Dr. Oki's research institute.
Professor Oak, who had finally finished working on the data after pulling an all-nighter until the early hours of the morning, could finally relax and get a good night's sleep at his desk.
He was grinning foolishly and drooling, seemingly lost in a beautiful dream.
The next second, a flash of white light appeared.
A Poké Ball appeared on the teleportation device less than a meter away from Professor Oak.
In less than a second.
Professor Oak's expression began to contort, accompanied by muffled groans of pain.
The night is still long.
