Chapter 3 Why Does a Good Kid Like Satoshi Have a Mouth?
Legendary Pokémon?!
Any Trainer, or anyone with even a little knowledge about Pokémon.
All have a deep understanding of this term.
Legendary Pokémon and Mythical Pokémon are collectively called Legendary Pokémon.
They all possess a strength far exceeding that of ordinary Pokémon.
And they are extremely rare.
In some legends and myths.
Some of them exist, being worshipped as gods or divine messengers.
Some are believed to be the creators or managers of certain things in the world.
Others caused great disasters in the past.
Their strength is unquestionable.
If you must say that ordinary humans can defeat these Legendary Pokémon...
It could only be those Champion Trainers, right!
For example, Damos.
The first thing he thought of was the main Pokémon of several Champions.
Lance's Dragonite and his Flying Corps.
Steven's Shiny Metagross.
Wallace's Milotic.
Diantha's Gardevoir.
Cynthia's Garchomp.
Alain's Mega Charizard X.
Leon's Charizard.
Among these Pokémon, a considerable number are comparable to pseudo-legendary Pokémon.
Under the intensive training of these Champion Trainers, it seems that defeating a Legendary Pokémon is not impossible...
The other people in the chatroom also had the same first thought.
【Lance: So tell me, without me knowing, did any of you guys secretly go challenge a Legendary Pokémon?】
【Diantha: I didn't, I didn't, don't talk nonsense, Kalos has always been peaceful and tranquil, there's no need for my Gardevoir to fight Legendary Pokémon.】
【Wallace: Hoenn is a bit chaotic, but no Legendary Pokémon have emerged, it shouldn't be Hoenn.】
【Cynthia: Yes, not Sinnoh.】
【Alain: Ahahaha, old man, I'm not sure, let me go ask.】
Everyone denied that there were Legendary Pokémon in their regions.
Instantly, everyone's eyes turned to the champion who hadn't spoken yet.
【Lance: Leon, amazing, challenging a Legendary Pokémon? As expected of you! I can't compare to you!】
As the Champion of Kanto and Johto regions.
Lance had absolute confidence in his own strength.
But to challenge a Legendary Pokémon...
Sorry.
Lance felt he couldn't do it.
Why seek punishment unless necessary?
Whether he could win or not is uncertain.
Even if he did win, he wouldn't gain anything.
If it's really a very powerful Legendary Pokémon.
He might even lose his life.
Not worthwhile.
It's really not worthwhile.
【Steven: ...A bit strong, Wallace, learn from him.】
【Wallace: ??? What's wrong with you?】
Hoenn region.
As a judge, Wallace was participating in the Contest Spectacular.
He rolled his eyes, which wasn't graceful at all, at the barrage in the chatroom.
Learn?
Learn what?
If he wants to learn, he might as well learn from Steven, this mining maniac, who just throws the champion's responsibility to the next unlucky soul!
Just as it seemed that the two consecutive champions of Hoenn were about to spark in the chatroom.
Leon popped up.
【Leon: Ah? Not true? I was giving a speech at an event, and didn't have time to check the chatroom.】
【Leon: I didn't challenge a Legendary Pokémon, Galar is very peaceful and harmonious, I only need to deal with some small things.】
【Leon: No Legendary Pokémon, really, no Legendary Pokémon.】
As if afraid that everyone wouldn't believe him.
Leon sent three barrages in a row.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't send pictures.
Leon would have wanted to send three consecutive 'reject' emojis.
Don't spread rumors.
There isn't one, there really isn't one!
He doesn't want to be put on the grill!
Seeing Leon say this.
The other few people just teased Leon a bit before shifting their attention.
Not Leon?
Then who else could it be?
Ordinary Pokémon that are capable of rivaling and defeating Legendary Pokémon...?
Is that real?
Not one?
But multiple?
No matter how you think about it, it feels... incredible.
...
Viridian Gym.
After hearing that mechanical voice.
A gleam flashed in Giovanni's eyes, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the armrest.
"Ordinary Pokémon that can rival Legendary Pokémon?"
"Tch... Interesting."
"I can keep an eye on them, maybe... catch them..."
Giovanni was an ambitious man.
He had accepted that there was a force beyond reason and imagination controlling this screen.
It had nothing to do with the people of the Pokémon League.
Once he was certain of that.
Giovanni's first thought was.
What benefits could he gain from this screen?
Giovanni's mind raced.
He quickly analyzed one, two, three, four... benefits.
He looked up at the screen that flickered on and off, and murmured:
"Hurry up and play."
"I hope the content that comes out doesn't disappoint me."
...
Amidst everyone's anticipation and attention.
The screen lit up —
A small, yellow and black, mouse-like creature with electric sacs on both cheeks appeared in everyone's sight.
Everyone: ???
Everyone: !!!
...
Satoshi tilted his head, looking at the small, somewhat familiar creature on the screen, then turned to his Pikachu.
He stroked his chin, his voice uncertain.
"Hmm... Pikachu, that guy on the screen kinda looks like you, right?"
Pikachu's expression also had a bit of confusion and uncertainty.
Similar?
Of course, it's similar!
Because that's how it looked when it was a kid!
Being a Pichu, before it evolved into a Pikachu, it looked like that!
Before Pikachu could fantasize about it, perhaps that's it.
He heard Satoshi continue.
"But it doesn't really look like you, right?"
"You're clearly much fatter than it, Pikachu!"
"You could never be that cute, Pikachu!"
Satoshi said with a chuckle, scratching his head.
Pikachu: "..."
"Pika... Pika Pi!"
Angry Pikachu unleashed its Thunderbolt attack.
The light flashed and then extinguished.
Satoshi fell to the ground, his whole body turned charcoal black, his limbs still twitching.
Kasumi and Takeshi shook their heads as they watched.
Such a good kid.
Why does he have a mouth?
If he spoke less, wouldn't there be no problem?
The two of them sighed and shook their heads, lamenting.
"Let's continue watching the screen."
"Yes, let's continue watching, this little guy should be Pikachu's baby form, right?"
"Don't say, the little guy is pretty cute."
"Yeah, yeah."
Kasumi and Takeshi unanimously ignored Satoshi who was lying on the ground.
What?
Worried about Satoshi?
No need!
This level of electric shock.
It's nothing to Satoshi!
