Pokémon: Dreams Come True Starting in Sinnoh

Chapter 338 Encounter in Qiefeng City, Princess Salubia!

Xiao Zhi was certain that he had indeed forgotten something.

But what exactly is being forgotten? If we knew, it wouldn't be called forgetting.

I only remember one thing that happened recently, and another thing that happened a long time ago.

.......

Qiefeng Dojo.

The seventh gym in the Sinnoh region.

Located in the north of Sinnoh, in the exact opposite direction from the starting point.

This already established that the difficulty of the Cutting Edge Gym was very high, and most of the trainers who were blocked from the League Tournament almost all fell at the Cutting Edge Gym.

As for why he didn't fall at the seaside dojo?

Of course, the museum owner is still in a state of self-isolation. You can get badges just by going there, so there's no challenge at all.

If it weren't for Daiya helping Denji in the league and speaking up for him, Denji would probably have lost his qualification to continue as a gym leader from the moment he started doing this.

"Hello! Is anyone there?! I want to book a gym challenge!"

Ash stood at the entrance of the Critical Eye Gym and shouted.

The gym's door wasn't locked, so there shouldn't be anyone inside, but no matter how many times Ash called out from the doorway, there was still no response from inside the gym.

"That's strange, could he really not be here?"

“Pikachu…”

After receiving no response, Ash turned to leave, but as he did so, he noticed something not far away—

"Huh? What's going on?"

"Pikachu?"

Ash and Pikachu exchanged a glance, both seeing the confusion in each other's eyes.

So Ash quickly headed towards the location of that figure.

.......

"Well?! Have you changed your mind?! As long as you say yes now, I'll grant you whatever you ask for!"

"Um, this..."

As Ash approached, he saw Yuka, who had been rejected from participating in the program in Canal City, now appearing here alone again.

At this moment, Xiaozhi suddenly remembered one of the things he had forgotten: Yuka had said that she would come to ask the two of them for help again after they arrived in Kirito City.

But that's not the key point.

The key question is, why is Dawn here? Wasn't she just incredibly sleepy and went back to the Pokémon Center to sleep? And she even changed her clothes...

......

What should I do?

Princess Salubia looked at Yuka, who kept bowing and scraping before her, and showed an extremely troubled expression.

This was a rare vacation for her, and at her request, her personal maid, Frigg, finally agreed to let her come to Chefon City to rest for a few days.

Her goal was actually quite simple: she wanted to take a picture with Ash and Dawn, who were very popular in the Sinnoh region recently, and then have afternoon tea with them and listen to them tell her about the interesting things they encountered on their trip.

If there's anything else Salubia wants to do, it's probably to watch them film their show live.

After all, before coming to Celeste City, she had already found out about Sinnoh NOW's filming plans. The TV station was planning to invite Ash and Dawn to film another scene in Celeste City.

But to her surprise, it seemed that Ash and Dawn had already declined the invitation to film.

What surprised her even more was that she was mistaken for Hikari by a reporter from Sinnoh TV.

Salvia, who is usually bad at saying no, looked at Yuka's expression, which seemed like she would immediately commit suicide if she refused her, and she really couldn't bring herself to say it.

"What's wrong? Hikari, didn't you just go back to the Pokémon Center? Why are you here?"

"?!"

A wave of waves has risen again.

Ash's sudden appearance momentarily interrupted Princess Salvia's thoughts.

Before she could figure out how to reject Xiaozhi, Yuka changed her target.

"So!? Have you changed your mind?"

"you......"

Unexpectedly, after only a week apart, Yu Xiang has become much more respectful in how she addresses me.

When I and Hikaru rejected her, Yuka only seemed a little regretful. Why does she look like she's about to die now?

"Didn't I already say... Since Hikaru has already refused, there's definitely no need for me to participate, right? I can't just say that I'm the only one on the show... Hmm?"

As Ash looked at Dawn, he repeated to Yuuka what he had already explained before.

But as they were talking, Ash suddenly sensed something was off about the other person, so he stared at Dawn even more intently.

Sabrina: "..."

Being stared at so closely by Ash, Salvia couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

However, now didn't seem like the right time to introduce herself, so Salubia could only lower her head and remain silent, just in case something went wrong.

But Ash stopped paying attention to her and looked at Yuka again, saying, "Let's talk about this later. I'll give you my final answer at the Pokémon Center in an hour, okay?"

"Of course! I'm really counting on you to do this!"

Xiao Zhi's initial strong refusal has turned into a "let's talk about it later" attitude.

While it doesn't offer a definitive answer, hopefully it's a little better than it was at the beginning.

Yu Xiang, thinking about the reward she would receive after accomplishing this, happily skipped away.

In the freezing cold, only Ash and Salvia remain.

After confirming that there was no one else around, Sharubia relaxed and placed her hands lightly on her chest, then let out a long sigh.

"You're not Xiao Guang, are you?"

"Eh?"

"Skin?"

However, before Salvia could completely calm down, Ash's assertion surprised her again.

It wasn't just Salvia who was surprised; Pikachu was too.

Salvia knows that she and Dawn look almost identical, and from Pikachu's perspective, Salvia's scent is even very similar to Dawn's.

From any perspective, Pikachu doesn't believe that the girl standing in front of it could be anything other than Dawn.

Why do you say that?

After regaining her composure, Salubia asked with a gentle smile.

Actually, introducing herself to Ash was the most difficult thing, but now that Ash can recognize that she is not Dawn, it has actually helped her a lot.

"Hmm... I can't quite put my finger on it, but there's a subtle difference in your demeanor. You seem a bit smarter than Hikaru?"

Pikachu: "......"

Pikachu looked at Ash with a speechless expression.

What kind of reason is that?

Thankfully, Dawn isn't here right now, otherwise Pikachu can imagine how much trouble Ash would suffer afterwards.

.......

P.S.: I'm asking for a gift every day~ QAQ~!
