Chapter 100 Opening
"That guy is a complete jinx; anyone associated with him will be plagued by bad luck..."
It turned out that ever since Ash gave Goh a six-month bad luck buff, his reputation had completely exploded. Anyone associated with him didn’t fare well either, which also caused the school Goh attended to suffer greatly.
After all, it was a school in the forest, and Goh was not a quiet person. As soon as he returned to the academy from the hospital, he would run into the forest, then anger wild Pokémon, and end up back in the hospital.
This cycle repeated, and in just over half a month, he attracted the hatred of all wild Pokémon in the entire forest, which then triggered a beast tide. Half of Giselle’s academy’s teaching building collapsed, all dormitories were destroyed, and the experintal building’s foundation was completely ripped out, not to ntion the experintal equipnt that had just been purchased at great cost.
Although only Goh himself was injured throughout, everyone else’s study and daily life were thrown into chaos, and mistakes occurred one after another in the final assessnts.
After Giselle’s grandfather understood the full story, he left no lingering problems. While Goh was recovering in the hospital, he was kicked out of school with a dismissal notice.
Goh once again beca famous because of this. All major leagues blacklisted him, and all places with Pokémon in Vermilion City and its vicinity, such as Gyms, research institutes, and Pokémon Centers, put up signs overnight prohibiting Goh from entering.
Upon learning of this situation, his parents completely placed their hopes on their newly trained second child, leaving Goh to fend for himself.
In the Pokémon world, not being able to own Pokémon or approach Pokémon is essentially no different from being isolated by the world.
Upon learning this news, Goh himself couldn’t accept the huge blow and chose to run away from ho on a dark night.
"Such people actually exist!"
After listening to Giselle’s explanation, Misty was extrely shocked.
"Exactly! If I had known that kid was like that, we should have expelled him when you, Ash, passed by our academy. What bad luck."
Giselle grew angrier as she spoke, and even her classmates behind her showed angry expressions upon hearing her words.
This clearly showed that Goh was indeed unpopular.
After chatting for a while, Giselle, after registering, casually asked Ms. Nurse Joy. Her luck was very good; the houses around where Ash and the others were staying were still empty. So Giselle directly chose the house closest to Ash and settled down.
Ti quickly arrived at the opening day of the Indigo Plateau Conference.
The opening ceremony, naturally, was the lighting of the sacred fla.
Before nine in the morning, Ash and the others were woken up by Giselle knocking on their door to go watch the final sacred fla relay ceremony.
On the road leading directly to the main venue, countless people gathered on both sides, cheering continuously.
Looking at the road sides, which were packed tightly, Giselle regretfully said, "We’re late, there are so many people!"
"The sacred fla isn’t that great to look at anyway. Won’t we still see it when the opening ceremony starts tonight?" Ash said casually.
"Please, that’s a fla taken from the legendary Moltres! I heard my grandfather say that the Kanto League once ford a contract with Moltres as a symbol of friendship between Pokémon and humans.
That’s a legendary Pokémon! That fla is strictly protected by the League. Besides the sacred fla bearer, it can only be observed up close during the relay process." Giselle’s eyes were filled with longing.
Indeed, as a representative of the academic faction, what she learned and ca into contact with were cold words in books. It was not surprising for her to be a little excited to observe sothing from a legendary Pokémon up close.
As Ash and the others listened to Giselle’s words, their expressions were a bit strange, especially Ash. He only felt that Giselle’s face at the mont was screaming three big words—country bumpkin. A fla from Moltres could make her show such an expression. What if he told her that he had caught a Moltres? Wouldn’t she be so excited that she’d faint on the spot?
Similar to Giselle, the people on both sides of the road let out sharp gasps of excitent when they saw the sacred fla about to pass by.
"Ash, why aren’t you guys excited at all?"
Giselle looked at the calm expressions of Ash and the other two, feeling very confused.
The three legendary birds are very famous in Kanto and the Orange Islands, but Ash and the others’ current performance was very indifferent. They looked at the sacred fla as if it were a Rock by the roadside.
Ash scratched his head, pretending to be excited, "Excited, actually, we’re very excited, it’s just that a few days ago, I was a sacred fla bearer for a section of the road, so..."
"Wow! Ash, you’re really amazing, you actually got to be in close contact with the sacred fla!"
Giselle’s face showed surprise and envy. Imdiately, she turned into a curious baby and asked, "Ash, is the sacred fla very hot? Is its color crimson? And..."
"..."
Listening to Giselle’s words, Ash and the other two suddenly felt a headache. Then Ash found an excuse to feed Togepi and slipped away.
"People from the academic faction are really troubleso!" Misty complained.
Brock, on the other hand, said thankfully, "Good thing Ash doesn’t have that habit."
Having experienced Giselle’s relentless questioning, Misty and Brock finally understood why Ash sotis acted so ’heartlessly’ towards Professor Oak.
"In any case, it’s better not to ntion anything about Zapdos and Moltres to her," Ash warned.
He was a little afraid that Misty and the others might accidentally reveal that he had caught Zapdos and Moltres.
"Don’t worry, Ash, we’ll keep it a secret," Misty said.
Night fell.
At exactly seven in the evening, Ash walked into the venue along with the other contestants. Ultimately, this was a regional Contest, and the necessary ceremonies had to be held.
Ash stood in the arena, listening to a series of speeches from League executives. Finally, after the sacred fla was lit, the main event of the opening ceremony, the match draw, began.
The field Ash drew for his first match was the Water Field, and his opponent was Dou Wu from Janggle. The match ti was 2 PM the next day.
After the opening ceremony dispersed, Ash saw Giselle coming over.
"Ash, when is your match?" Giselle asked curiously.
"Water Field, 2 PM. What about you?"
"The Rock Field is in the morning."
"Oh, Rock Field, that’s quite suitable for your Marowak to perform," Ash said with a smile.
"Marowak is my ace. This is only the elimination round; I won’t easily let it participate."
As soon as Giselle finished speaking, a voice very familiar to Ash ca.
"Oh, isn’t this Ash? Why do you have another female companion?"
"Gary, I thought you were going to drop out. I didn’t expect you to still co."
Ash had been asking around about Gary’s arrival these past few days, but there was no news. He had even thought this guy had used the excuse of special training to skip out.
"I’m the one who’s going to defeat you and win the championship, how could I drop out!" Gary said.
"Tch, you’re still twenty thousand years away from beating !" Ash said disdainfully.
