After the match, the group recalled their respective Pokémon and left the battlefield together.
And on the way back to the Pokémon Center, they couldn't help but exchange a few complints. Erika and Lisa, in particular, who were seeing Misty's Psyduck for the first ti, gave it extrely high praise.
Compared to an ordinary Psyduck, Misty's was undoubtedly more special and more morable.
And when Misty told them with a smile that although her Psyduck was a Water-type Pokémon, it couldn't swim at all, it made the two of them marvel even more.
"Psyduck can't swim!?" Lisa was extrely surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Is it just this one? Or does the entire species not know how to swim? Huh… that's not right. I've clearly seen many evolved Golduck, and they're all very good at swimming."
"Well…" Misty scratched her cheek in embarrassnt. "It… it should just be that my Psyduck is a bit strange…"
Listening to them chat, Natsui, who hadn't been commanding during the battle, had a panoramic view of the whole situation. And after watching the entire battle, he had also made an assessnt of everyone's performance in his mind.
It could be said that it wasn't just him and Ash who were constantly improving. Even Misty and Brock, after traveling for so long, had also grown a lot.
Everyone had shed their inexperience and was striding forward in the direction of their dreams.
It seems I have to work even harder… I can't slack off for a mont, or else these guys will surpass without even realizing it.
Entering the Pokémon Center, they went to the restaurant to rest and ordered a few drinks. But before they could even warm their seats, they heard several cars approaching from outside.
Officer Jenny, Nurse Joy, and the assistant, John, all went outside. When they reached the front of the Pokémon Center, they saw a small bus, escorted by a police car, coming up the mountain.
And when the bus ca to a stop, a very familiar man was the first to get off.
A familiar white lab coat, familiar silver-gray short hair, a familiar face—wasn't it Professor Oak?
"Professor Oak!?"
Ash and his friends exclaid in surprise. They never expected that the so-called expert would be Professor Oak.
Originally, they had thought it would be Professor Elm from New Bark Town or soone else who would co to investigate this matter. They never thought it would be him.
But on second thought, it wasn't hard to guess. After all, in the entire world, there were few people more authoritative than Professor Oak. And since Pallet Town wasn't very far from Johto, it wasn't strange that he had been invited.
Towards this titan of the academic world, John's tone was extrely respectful. "Professor Oak, we've been waiting for you for a long ti."
First nodding at John, Professor Oak then turned his gaze to Natsui and the others.
He had already been a bit surprised that Ash had also happened to be in Greenfield. And then, seeing the strange combination of Natsui and Erika, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise.
"So you guys are here too. Honestly, if I had known, I would have just left this matter to you. Then I wouldn't have had to travel all this way here."
"Huh? Why leave it to us?"
Before Ash could realize the aning of Professor Oak's words, Pikachu at this mont seed to have discovered sothing. It suddenly cried out and then ran directly towards the minibus.
"Pikachu, what's wrong?"
Before Ash could wonder, he saw his mother, Delia, also get off the bus behind Professor Oak.
"Huh? Mom? Why did you co with Professor Oak?"
Compared to the still-surprised Ash, Natsui was already used to seeing Oak and Delia together. It could even be said that if the two of them didn't appear together one day, that would be what would truly surprise him.
Delia first knelt down to pet Pikachu, then walked up to Ash. The mother and son shared a tender mont of concern for each other, and this heartwarming scene was also broadcast by the reporters on the side through their caras.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Officer Jenny, eager to solve the case, directly took Professor Oak to the crystallized area for a close-up investigation.
As for the others, they took Delia to a parasol nearby. It was only then that they learned why she had co here with Professor Oak.
Delia took a sip of juice and said slowly, "Professor Hale used to often go to Professor Oak's place to study. That's when we t."
As she spoke, she took a photo out of her bag and placed it on the table.
Natsui leaned in to look and saw that in the photo, Delia and Ash were standing on Professor Oak's right. Ash was making a 'peace' sign with his hand and smiling very happily.
And on the other side of Professor Oak was a family of three. The couple looked to be middle-aged, but their daughter was a few years younger than Ash.
Delia pointed to the photo and said, "This photo was taken a few years ago in Pallet Town with Professor Oak and Professor Hale's family. They are all very nice people."
Although she said that, after seeing the photo, no matter how hard Ash tried to rember, because he was still young at the ti, he had no mory of it at all.
Delia continued, "I saw the report on this incident on the news last night, and especially after learning that Professor Hale was also missing, I was really worried about his daughter, so I ca here with Professor Oak to see."
"I see."
Just then, Pikachu suddenly sensed sothing and looked into the distance warily. Even Gengar popped out of Natsui's shadow and stood protectively in front of him.
This on-guard feeling, as if a powerful enemy was approaching.
"Hmm? What's wrong with you two?"
Attracted by the two Pokémon's actions, everyone, including Natsui, quickly turned to look. And after a few breaths, they saw a figure suddenly descend from the sky, and a beast-like Pokémon appeared before their eyes.
With just one look, Natsui imdiately recognized its identity.
It was Entei.
At the sa ti, a gasp of surprise ca from Erika beside him. She covered her mouth in surprise, clearly having also recognized this Pokémon.
Just like the Suicune they had seen before, Entei was also one of the Legendary Beasts.
At this mont, it stood there majestically, its presence overwhelming. And when stared at by its eyes, everyone felt a powerful sense of pressure.
In terms of appearance, Entei had orange-red fur, with iron shackles on its strong limbs. It had a red, six-pointed star-shaped structure on its cheeks, and a three-leaf-clover-like golden shell embedded on its forehead.
Although many people said it looked like a lion, to Natsui, it looked more like a large Tibetan Mastiff.
