There was a crisp sound when the stone collided with the table, and a stone inlaid with a lightning bolt pattern was slammed on the table by Xiaoxia.

"Since you don't care about Pikachu so much, you might as well give me Pikachu and I'll raise him!"

Xiao Gang hurriedly grabbed Xiao Xia, who raised his hand and wanted to hit Xiao Xia, while Sika was sitting on the other side of the table looking at Pikachu in the arms of Dr. Quercus. Sika noticed that Pikachu's state was a little wrong this morning, and after informing Dr. Quercus, he found out that Pikachu had exercised vigorously without rest after many battles, causing his own dark injuries to erupt again.

If it weren't for Sika's discovery, Pikachu would have even been in danger of his life.

And Ash... Now he sat in his seat expressionlessly, took his eyes off the book blankly, and glanced at Xiaoxia.

"Did something happen?"

"What's going on!? Ash, you still have the face to tell me this!? ”

Hearing Ash's seemingly innocent question, Xiao Xia, who had just calmed down, almost didn't come up in one breath, and almost threw out the baby ball. Xiao Gang almost didn't stop it.

"Hehe, that's all I can do."

Quercus gently stroked the sleeping Pikachu and glanced at Ash with disdain.

"Playing trainer play game of waste. Idiots who can't even fulfill their responsibilities as trainers don't understand why the league would admit that you bunch of wastes are qualified, and release you bunches of pigs and dogs out of the cage at the age of ten. ”

"It's better to go back to the days when your parents messed with you like babies."

He sneered, shook his head, and headed out the door.

"The reserve gym trainer in Hualan City is just an idiot."

"What did you say?"

Xiaoxia only felt that she couldn't even think today, she was not less despised by this doctor in the past, and she was on the verge of an outburst and pointed to the door that was about to walk out of the door and yelled.

“... Hmph, just someone like you who only knows how to use foreign items like evolution stones to increase the strength of Pokémon is actually a prepative-level trainer in the gym... Is the standard of the Quartz Alliance so low? ”

Oak wood didn't stop and walked out of the door of the ward.

“... You wait for me. ”

Xiao Xia waved Xiao Gang's hand away and chased after him.

"Hey, Xiaoxia... Wait a minute. ”

Xiao Gang glanced at Xiao Xia, who pushed the door and left, then looked back at Xiao Zhi, who was stuck there, sighed and chased after him.

“...”

Ash stood up with his hands propped up. Looking at the direction in which everyone was leaving, he breathed in his throat. But he stretched out his hand and froze in the air for a long time, but he still couldn't spit out a word in his throat.

At last he smiled self-deprecatingly and sat down in his chair decadently.

[Why don't you go and see it?] Go check out Pikachu. 】

Sika leaned against the window, looked at Ash who had just been slapped in the face by Xiaoxia, slowly closed his eyes and sighed.

“... No. ”

He looked at the ceiling, his mind confused.

"I... An incompetent trainer indeed... Also a bastard, a scrap wood that can't do anything. Nothing can be done, nothing can be done..."

Ash said silently, the book he was reading had fallen to the bottom of the table, but he was in no mood to pick it up again.

"Pikachu... I'm sorry. ”

He muttered, looking at the Thunder Stone left by Xiaoxia on the table, his hand clenched tightly.

"Dr. Quercus is right, waste wood like me... Maybe it would be better if I really went back to Zhenxin Town and never touched the Pokémon Trainer profession again for the rest of my life..."

"As a trainer, I didn't even notice that something was wrong with my Pokémon... Am I still a trainer..."

Ash's muttering made Sika shake his head involuntarily.

didn't say anything, just glanced at the egg of the little fire dragon next to him, jumped off the table and stool, and walked out the door.

[I don't know what you're thinking, and I don't want to. But I know that if you want to be so decadent, I suggest you consider handing over Pikachu to Xiaoxia to raise... Of course, I'll leave you too. 】

Sika glanced back at Ash's direction one last time, and finally snorted coldly.

[Pikachu trains desperately because he feels his weakness, and you feel your weakness but runs away. 】

It walked up slightly.

"It's not like you, Ash. At least... Cheer up for Pikachu, too, don't you? 】

Sika left the room.

[And... Since you are a trainer and have subdued Pokémon, shouldn't you take your own responsibility? 】

“...”

What Pikachu's situation is all about, Sika also has a general understanding of a lot. Mainly in the past few days, Sika and Pikachu have had a sporadic conversation, and they probably know what Pikachu is thinking.

Don't look at the doctor's abuse of Ash, it's hard to hear, but in fact, this outlet is vicious, but the doctor who unexpectedly cares about Pokémon is not wrong at all.

Sika herself is Ash's Pokémon, and it is naturally clear about Ash's training style. In other words, except for some special moments, Ash has never really trained Pokémon at all. This style...

You know, as a trainer, you are not a tourist who travels around with Pokémon, but a profession that takes training, improving Pokémon strength, fighting skills, and taking care of Pokémon as your own responsibility. When their Pokémon shows a thirst for power, Pokémon trainers should have an obligation and responsibility to help their Pokémon increase their strength.

However, Ash has recently... But because of his own situation, he has been ignoring Pikachu's abnormality and has been silent in his own world...

In the hallway, Sika's footsteps paused, because Xiaoxia had already fought with the doctor Quercus in the backyard. But Sika was not interested, and walked towards the edge of the forest.

"Jewel starfish, water guns."

Dr. Quercus and Kasumi stood on opposite sides of the training ground, and Dr. Saki's Casey did not wait for Dr. Quercus to give an order, and the mind disappeared after a movement, appearing not far behind the jewel starfish.

"Jewel starfish!"

"Hypnosis."

The corners of Dr. Quercus's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he had lost interest in Xiaoxia. But the next moment, he was frowned upon. Because the jeweled starfish is not used for mirror reflection, but instead emits blue light all over its body, Casey seems to have grasped his neck with an invisible hand all along, and is lifted into the air.

"Although I'm just a reserve gym trainer, I'm definitely not something like you who doesn't even know how to respect others can underestimate."

Xiaoxia pointed at Casey and shouted:

"Water cannon!"
