Bruno was shirtless, with only a pair of white trousers on his lower body, and no shoes on.
"Besides this blank Pokémon ball for catching the giant Onix, there's nothing else...
Bruno took out a Pokémon ball and waved it towards Ash.
"Unless I'm going out on a necessary mission, I normally won't carry Pokémon with me."
Bruno said confidently, "In my opinion, humans can become more powerful just like Pokémon."
"As long as I keep training, I can fight against any powerful Pokémon myself.
Well, Bruno means what he says, and he really means it.
Not only is he training his Pokémon, but even his own physique is constantly being honed there.
This can be seen from his sturdy body and powerful muscles.
"Really? That's such a pity~"
Seeing this, Ash had no choice but to give up the plan of fighting, feeling quite regretful.
"I hope that next time, I will have another chance to learn from you, Mr. Bruno."
"Of course I'm always welcome!"
Bruno crossed his arms and smiled, "I'm waiting for you and your bear apprentice to challenge me."
"If everything goes well for you next time...
Bruno said directly: "If you can win the Indigo Plateau Conference this time, you will have a chance to challenge the four of us."
"When that time comes, I will do my best to deal with it..."
As he spoke, Bruno also looked towards the shadow under Ash's feet:
"Whether you send out a Fighting-type bear apprentice, or a Ghost-type Gengar or other Pokémon."
"I will welcome any challenge you may bring!!"
Apparently, he also noticed that there were other hidden Pokémon under Ash's feet.
"..."
Gengar's head also slowly emerged and looked at Bruno from a distance.
"I can tell that this Gengar of yours is particularly outstanding."
"You are a very good and outstanding Pokémon Trainer..."
Bruno finally smiled at Ash and the others and said:
"I look forward to seeing you bring out other equally excellent Pokémon during the battle~~~"
The giant Onix was captured by Ash, and there was no purpose for coming here.
Bruno left this sentence and went away to other places to train himself.
This was the first meeting between Ash and the Elite Four members.
"Although I was unable to conduct 357 Pokémon battles, but..."
Ash looked at Bruno's receding back and smiled as he turned his gaze away:
"It's just a matter of time."
"I am actually looking forward to the scene when I officially fight with them."
"You are also looking forward to it, right?"
"Pika Pika~!!"
"Hey~!!"
Both Gengar and Pikachu Pokémon nodded repeatedly.
After training with Ash for such a long time, my strength has improved significantly.
Now they are at their most confident and peak moments.
Even if you have to face the Elite Four of the Pokémon Alliance, let alone the Elite Four, even if it is the champion.
They don't have any scruples or fears, they just do it no matter who it is!!
It is often said that Pokémon become more and more like their Trainers.
There is some truth to this statement.
At least in that episode, he wasn't afraid of anyone who played Rival, and his attitude of doing it all at once was quite similar to Ash.
"Anyway, there's still some time until the Pokémon Alliance Conference...
Xiaogang on the side was also infected and took out his Pokémon ball.
"My Onix and Vulpix can also be used as sparring partners!"
Well, it's just a sparring partner.
Xiaogang knew that if a fight really broke out, all the Pokémon he had might not be enough to defeat Pikachu, an electric mouse.
If it's just to test the power of the moves and the effectiveness of the skills, he can be of some help.
That's it...
Boom~!!
When Vulpix's Flamethrower and Pikachu's Thunderbolt collided, an explosion occurred instantly.
This is nothing, the key point is that a huge cave appeared in the area where the explosion occurred.
In other words, it should be some kind of ruins hidden behind this cave.
"This should be where the ancient Pokémon Gengar and the ancient Alakazam are hidden, right?"
At the entrance of the ruins, a golden fragment fell out and caught Ash's eye.
He knew what was going to happen next.
In the original version, Ash and his team hid a relic fragment item called the Golden Eye in the fragments of Rock.
It was this item that attracted a group of Pokémon archaeology teams.
They are mainly archaeologists of ancient Pokémon civilizations.
The leader of them was an Archeologist named Professor White.
Ash and the others noticed the movement of the Golden Eye, which attracted the whole group of people over.
By the way, ACDC also transferred the entire archaeological camp here.
After arriving at the archaeological team's camp, Professor White gave Ash and others a special introduction to Pokémon civilization.
He also showed Ash and others the cultural relics that were unearthed later, and told them the meaning of the words engraved on the stone slabs found in the ruins.
Late at night, the Rocket trio sent Arbok to retrieve a treasure from underground.
Shortly after the Golden Eye was discovered, a golden spoon was also discovered behind the bronze vessel.
There is a subtle relationship between the two objects, and when the two objects meet, an incredible reaction will occur.
In addition to the two artifacts, clay figurines of the Pokémon bear and Psyduck were also found.
Late at night, the three members of Team Rocket, who also discovered this, secretly sent Arbok to the underground to retrieve a treasure.
Those are three connected black spheres, and along with them comes a huge super ancient Gengar.
The black sphere took them in, and the next morning, even the archaeologists were sucked in.
At this time, the huge super ancient Gengar was about to go down the mountain. Ash fought back vigorously because he was afraid that the Pallet Town at the foot of the mountain would be destroyed.
At this time, the golden eye and the golden spoon in the room also reacted, and the two objects merged into one.
At this time, a ruin appeared from another rock wall nearby, and the huge super ancient Pokémon Alakazam also appeared from it.
Two giant ancient Pokémon begin to fight.
It turns out that in ancient times, it was these two Pokémon that destroyed the ancient Pokémon civilization.
At this time, Jigglypuff arrived with Matt Wind in his hand.
I thought I could successfully hypnotize the two giant Pokémon with Jigglypuff's singing, but it didn't work.
However, its singing caused a reaction in the bronze vessel, and a giant Jigglypuff came out of it.
The giant Jigglypuff's singing successfully put all the giant Pokémon to sleep, including Ash and his friends.
When they woke up, the giant Pokémon had disappeared.
They turned into balls again and returned to the ground.
According to White, this sphere is likely the origin of the Pokémon ball.
The legendary Pokémon civilization was a city that disappeared overnight due to a natural disaster.
They regard Pokémon as supernatural forces and worship them.
The objects found on the mountain and a series of events also confirmed this legend.
"Now, the three members of Team Rocket have gone to the direction of scientific research and never returned. The archaeological team has not arrived here yet...
At this moment, Ash weighed the Golden Eye in his hand.
If nothing unexpected happens, that super ancient giant Alakazam will be imprisoned in this golden eye.
He thought about it, then picked up the Rotom Pokédex and dialed a phone number.
"Hello, Ash, why did you think of calling me?"
From the other side of the Pokédex, someone slurping instant noodles came:
"Aren't you supposed to be training? I have something important to do here, so I'm very busy...
"That's right, Professor Oak~"
Ash glanced at the Pokédex screen, where Professor Oak was holding a ramen fork in one hand and concentrating on writing a poem by Senryu with the other.
"I have a study on super ancient Pokémon. Are you interested?"
"Um?!"
Professor Oak paused as he was about to write Senryu.
He looked up in astonishment, the instant noodles hanging at the corner of his mouth, not yet swallowed.
Ultimately, these three super ancient Pokémon are primarily their Imprison counterparts.
Ash handed them all to Professor Oak.
Well, he didn't have much interest in these three Pokémon.
It's amazing! Pikachu can easily electrocute them by releasing Thunderbolt into the water.
It's really amazing, the collision of the power released by the super ancient Alakazam and Gengar can also open the so-called door to another world.
All in all, it looks pretty weird.
The weirder something is, the better it is to avoid touching it.
Give it to Professor Oak to research or give it to the Pokémon Alliance.
You will also receive some rewards from the Pokémon Alliance.
After Professor Oak received Ash's report, he immediately started investigating this matter.
Anyway, he promised Ash that there would be something valuable in it.
The Pokémon Alliance will definitely not treat him unfairly.
Ash had no doubt about this.
He has already obtained a lot of good things from the Pokémon Alliance.
The funds for this period of travel adventure alone, as well as various expenses along the way, were all rewards given to Ash by the Pokémon Alliance.
Including but not limited to the various resources Ash needs to cultivate Pokémon.
For example, special Pokémon food, some training props, etc.
By the way, speaking of resources, Ash is currently staying at home for such a long time.
The previous accumulations were gradually consumed, and some of them were gone.
BB...
"Before the conference officially starts, you can go to Indigo Plateau.
Professor Oak, who was investigating, gave a good suggestion:
"With the Pokémon Alliance Conference about to be held, many businesses have come to Indigo Plateau."
"After all, this kind of Pokémon battle event will attract many Pokémon Trainers to gather here.
"Those Pokémon Trainers who have obtained eight gym badges and are officially eligible to participate in the competition need no further explanation."
"There are also many people who come to watch the fun, and those who want to watch the game in person. There are also many fanatics and dignitaries who are very interested in this game. They will all gather here."
"These people are all very impressive customers with strong spending power."
"Those merchants are just waiting to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune!"
"Of course, there are many Pokémon Trainers who also want to do pre-game supplies and consider the large number of vendors.
"There is also a high probability that some of the props or evolution stones they want will appear there, so they go there in advance.
"Just like my grandson Gary, he has already passed by~~~"
Even Gary has already gone to that place, so Ash will naturally be no exception.
"Mom, we're leaving early."
At the gate of Pallet Town, Ash said goodbye to Delia.
"Don't forget to eat on time on the road, remember to brush your teeth before resting, and..."
Delia is like a normal mother, nagging Ash about some daily life matters.
Ash also listened patiently and responded from time to time.
"While I'm away, I'll leave my mother to you, Suction Cup Doll."
"Barri Barri~!!"
The suction cup puppet patted its chest, indicating that everything was up to it.
"Ah, don't worry about that..."
When Delia heard this, she immediately changed her attitude.
She clapped her hands and smiled:
"Recently, our community has been planning a trip.
"This time we are going to the Orange Islands to enjoy an island-style seaside vacation."
"I haven't been to the island for a long time. Let me think about what clothes I should wear when the time comes..."
Ash:"~~~"
Sure enough, Pallet Town's resident service community is as awesome as ever.
It's time to start organizing trips.
How come he didn't realize before that the welfare benefits here are so good~
But since Delia had her own fun things to do to relax and have fun, Ash no longer had any extra worries.
After packing our bags, we prepared to set off again.
But this time, it's no longer about collecting gym badges.
Instead, we officially headed to the venue of the Pokémon Alliance Conference, Indigo Plateau!
He wants to get the first Alliance Conference trophy in his life!!
But before officially setting off.
"Wait for me for a moment."
At the entrance of Pallet Town, Ash asked Misty and Xiaogang to wait for him for a while.
He went alone into the depths of the nearby dense forest.
This time, the reason why Ash wanted to leave Pallet Town as soon as possible was not only to reach Indigo Plateau in advance.
Another most important reason is...
"It seems that I am not too late."
Looking at the silver-gray figure in the jungle, emitting rich dark blue Psychic energy.
A hint of smile appeared in Ash's eyes.
"I just arrived too."
Mewtwo's calm words echoed in his mind as well.
At the Tokiwa Gym, both parties had already agreed to meet in Pallet Town.
And now, it is time to meet again!!
"I have already deleted the memories of those who created me and those who knew about this.
Mewtwo reported back this message.
It can be heard that his tone is somewhat complicated:
"The only trace of my existence that is still remembered in this world is you..."
"Well, whenever you want to leave me, you can always erase my memory."
Ash nodded slightly, giving Mewtwo the greatest respect.
"I don't have to do that for you."
Mewtwo's eyes flickered with blue light, and his head shook slightly.
His Psychic could sense whether Ash's words were sincere or false.
This is naturally what Ash considered from the bottom of his heart.
Mewtwo was also quite moved.
Since Ash gave it the greatest respect, why wouldn't it give him the greatest trust?
"According to you humans and this world...
The entire super energy was shrouded in a hazy purple glow, and then gradually shrank.
"Then, from today on, you are my Trainer."
"I will follow you through these adventures...
After Mewtwo finished speaking, the purple light covering his body shrank into a small sphere.
