"What a cute Pikachu! As expected, you're the perfect one for me!"
In an open clearing, Sister Biribiri was enthusiastically cuddling a cute, lovable Pikachu in her arms. Her hands occasionally sparked with electricity, crackling softly, while Pikachu lay obediently in her embrace, accepting the attention without resistance.
It might sound unbelievable, but Mikoto had simply stumbled upon this Pikachu, released a little thunder, and just like that, the Pikachu decided to follow her everywhere.
Regarding this peculiar situation, Mikoto could only conclude one thing: "This must be fate."
"Wow, your tail is heart-shaped too—so adorable!"
Sister Biribiri found herself liking the Pikachu even more. Of course, she was unaware of the fact that Pikachu's gender could be determined by their tails: a heart-shaped tail meant this Pikachu was a girl.
Not far away, Kurama observed the scene helplessly.
"I say, Miss Biri—"
"Mikoto! Not 'Miss Biribiri.' It doesn't sound good!" Mikoto interjected before Kurama could finish.
"Millions of people already calling me 'Biribiri' online is one thing, but must you also call me that?"
"Alright, alright. Shouldn't we go look for Ninetails now?"
"Sure, sure. I know, I know." Mikoto shrugged and picked up Pikachu as she stood. However, just as she began walking, she noticed three figures—two men and one woman—not far away.
At that moment, the three were sitting together, enjoying a meal.
"Brock, your sandwiches are amazing!" said a boy wearing a hat as he savored the food in his hands.
"As expected of future Pokémon Breeders," said the girl.
"Hahaha~ Thank you. Eat as much as you like. I still need to prepare food for the Pokémon." As he spoke, Brock distributed the specially prepared Pokémon food to their companions.
Watching this scene, Mikoto suddenly realized, "Ash, Brock, and Misty? These are the main characters of this world, aren't they?"
However, after taking a closer look at the trio, Mikoto quickly lost interest. She had encountered plenty of protagonists in her travels and wasn't particularly impressed.
"Let's go, Kurama— Kurama? Kurama?! Kurama! What are you staring at?"
Mikoto turned to Kurama and was instantly exasperated. The fox was intently watching Vulpix, who was happily munching on Pokémon food nearby. Kurama's gaze was so focused that Mikoto almost started steaming with frustration.
"Kurama! Are you kidding me? Don't you see that Vulpix already has a trainer?"
"A trainer? So what? Can't I negotiate?" Kurama retorted with a sly grin before trotting excitedly toward Vulpix.
Mikoto stomped her foot in frustration but begrudgingly followed, still holding Pikachu in her arms.
Vulpix, sensing the intense gaze, paused mid-bite and looked up. When she saw Kurama—a striking red fox—staring at her, she let out a startled yelp and quickly hid behind Brock.
The trio's attention was now fully on Kurama.
"What kind of Pokémon is this? It looks really strong," Ash remarked, pulling out his Pokédex. However, the device offered no information.
"This... This looks like a Ninetails, but why is it red? Could it be a shiny Pokémon?" Brock mused, puzzled.
Kurama, unfazed by their curiosity, leaped forward toward Vulpix, exuding an intimidating aura. In the world of animals, strength often determined attraction, and Kurama was determined to demonstrate his prowess.
However, before Kurama could do more, a small fist landed squarely on his head.
"Kurama, stop it! If you want a Ninetails or Vulpix, I'll help you find one. Don't act like a hooligan—girls won't like that!" Mikoto scolded.
Kurama's ears drooped in defeat. "Alright, alright. You're the boss."
With Kurama subdued, Mikoto turned to the trio and offered an apologetic smile. "Sorry for the trouble our Kurama caused you."
