"The match is over! Meowth and Gallade are unable to continue battling! Therefore, the winner is Dawn!"
Bai An's voice resounded throughout the venue.
Only at this moment did Xiaoguang, who had been in a state of high tension, finally realize this fact.
I.
Did you win?
All the spotlights in the venue were now focused on Xiaoguang. She stared blankly at the entire venue, surrounded by the enthusiastic shouts and applause of the audience. It wasn't until Togekiss and Curly-eared came to Xiaoguang's side that a smile finally appeared on her face.
"We won! Togekiss! Curly-ear! We won!"
"Tog~!"
“MI~!”
Dawn excitedly hugged Curly-ear to her chest, and Togekiss also spread its wings and embraced Dawn and Curly-ear together.
Countless flashes and the clicking of cameras captured this moment of victory unique to the champion.
I imagine it won't be long before news of the finals of this grand celebration is published in magazines and newspapers from major publishing houses.
"so good."
"what?"
When Ash saw Dawn surrounded by flowers and applause in the audience, he couldn't help but sigh.
Xiao Gang turned his head to look at Xiao Zhi with a hint of doubt.
"I really envy Hikaru."
Xiao Zhi simply said that.
"Ah—" Xiao Gang smiled, seemingly understanding. "Yes, it's true. He just debuted and already won the highest honor in the region. It's certainly enviable."
My goal is to become the world's number one coordination trainer.
In his very first year as a contestant, he became the strongest competitor in the entire Sinnoh region.
For dream chasers all over the world, Xiaoguang's achievements are clearly admirable and enviable.
"Ash, when you first debuted, you participated in the Indigo League competition, and your results were—"
"Round of 16"
Xiao Zhi said quietly, he would never forget this number.
"Round of 16 and the champion, indeed..."
Xiao Gang stopped speaking, but both of them understood what the other meant.
"Now that Dawn has won, it's just you left," Brock reminded Ash, gazing at the figure on the stage from afar.
"Of course!" Ash took a deep breath and stood up. Pikachu, who had been standing by the armrest, jumped onto Ash's shoulder. "I'll win this time no matter what. I can't let Dawn's efforts go to waste!"
After saying these words, Xiao Zhi walked towards the exit.
The awards ceremony has now ended, and Ash should go back to his training.
"Oh, right."
Just as he turned around, Ash suddenly seemed to remember something, turned back to Brock and waved, saying, "I'm not the only one left. There are three of us together, Brock, you're one of the remaining ones too."
After saying that, without giving Xiaogang any chance to answer, Xiaozhi silently left.
Xiao Gang, sitting in his seat, pondered Xiao Zhi's words and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Seriously, the kid who challenged my Onix with Pikachu back then has become such a smooth talker now."
Xiao Gang placed his backpack on his lap and pulled out a notebook from it.
On the latest page, his final decision on his goal is clearly recorded.
Goal: To become the world's number one Pokémon breeder
—Method: Help others train world-class Pokémon
—Someone else? (crossed out)
—Hmm, perhaps... to become the world's number one Pokémon breeder, one should stay by the side of the world's number one Pokémon trainer? If I could work hard to allow him to devote as much energy as possible to Pokémon training, and I could handle all other issues related to the healthy breeding of Pokémon, that would be great.
—After all, I'm going to help take care of the Pokémon of the world's number one Pokémon trainer, so... I should be able to do what doctors can do, and do it very well, right?
Closing his notebook, Brock gazed in the direction Ash had gone, as if conversing with Ash face to face, and murmured, "Of course not, my wish is not just to become a microcosm of what you all are like."
After tidying up the messy items one by one, Xiao Gang followed Xiao Zhi and left the venue together.
This Sinnoh journey.
As the grand celebration comes to a close, it's almost over.
......
Night fell quietly, and the heavy snow that had swept through the entire city of Cherfench in the morning had gradually subsided.
At night, the streetlights twinkle in the city of Chefven, illuminating this northern snow city.
On the afternoon of the day after the grand celebration ended, Xiao Guang was incredibly busy.
After coming off the stage, Xiao Guang spent the evening dealing with interviews from various media outlets and congratulatory phone calls from his hometown.
Xiao Guang finally had some time to rest around 9 p.m.
On the balcony of the Pokémon Center, Dawn, who had just returned, slumped weakly in a chair, muttering repeatedly, "I'm so tired."
Bogarman stood on the table and gently patted Hikaru's head, as if comforting him.
Although she was very tired, Xiao Guang did not put down the trophy in her hand. From the end of the competition until now, Xiao Guang has been holding her championship trophy, and it is clear that she cherishes it very much.
Just then, Ash walked out of the room and, seeing Dawn looking utterly dejected, couldn't help but tease her, "You're already exhausted? And this is just a small battle."
"A small battle—?" Dawn's weak voice drifted over. "Satoshi, have you ever experienced anything big?"
Hikari, who had been lying face down on the table, raised her head slightly, only showing her eyes as she communicated with Satoshi.
"Hmm..." Ash was thinking carefully. "I haven't encountered a bigger event than this in terms of interviews, but I have encountered bigger events in other areas."
"I have a feeling there's some sad story behind it..."
"It should be described as an exciting and thrilling story!" Ash corrected. "Right? Pikachu?"
"Skin......"
Pikachu turned its head away, indicating that it didn't want to communicate with you.
"Speaking of which, the Grand Festival is over, so what about the League Tournament on your side, Ash?" Dawn asked a question she already knew the answer to.
"It will be held in a week on Lily of the Valley."
Ash pulled out a chair and sat down next to Dawn. Pikachu jumped onto the table and sat beside Piplup, looking at the moon hanging in the sky.
