After Zhi returned to the tent, Xia had already cleaned up all the bowls.
“Oh? You’ve already cleaned up? Thanks.”
“It’s what I should do. By the way, are you done with your stuff?”
“Yeah, the proposal was successful.”
“Come on, don’t joke like that.”
Xia really didn't believe Zhi's proposal. After all, she wasn't familiar with Zhi and didn't know his background. Afterwards, Zhi and Xia packed up and went to bed. Since Charmander's tail was always on fire, Zhi had to put him in a luxury ball. Ralts, being clingy, needed to be held by Zhi to sleep. The other Pokémon found their own places to sleep. Meowth even prepared a small sleeping bag for himself, and Pikachu was right beside Zhi.
Xia, being a girl, couldn't help but feel a little uneasy sleeping next to Zhi, a handsome guy. However, soon after seeing Zhi holding Ralts and Pikachu, she smiled and fell fast asleep.
The next day, when Xia woke up, Zhi had already started training his Pokémon. Meowth was constantly sharpening its claws, Jigglypuff was practicing its arm strength by throwing stones, the egg in her pocket was being watched by Zhi, Growlithe and Charmander were spewing flames while dodging the stones, and their flames were aimed at Pikachu. Ralts was practicing its telekinesis.
“Oh? You’re awake? Just wait a little bit, I’ll prepare breakfast.”
“Okay.” Xia saw that Zhi had already prepared breakfast and started to help set the table.
After finishing their training, Zhi and Xia finished breakfast and set off again. Zhi looked at the rainbow in the sky after the rain cleared and saw a colorful Pokémon flying by. Then his face changed.
“Huh? Huh! Wow! Meowth! Everyone! Quick! Take a picture with that! Quick! Xia, you too! Hurry and come take a picture!”
Then, with Xia looking confused, Zhi released all his Pokémon and took Xia with him to have Meowth remotely control the machine to take pictures.
“Quick quick quick! Meowth, start taking pictures! Make sure they’re clear!”
“Got it, Meow!”
Then, Zhi, Xia, and a bunch of Pokémon took several photos with the flying Pokémon heading towards the rainbow.
As Xia saw that the Pokémon was about to fly away, she asked: “Hey, Zhi, what kind of Pokémon is that?”
“Ho-Oh, the legendary Pokémon from the Johto region. Some people never get to see it in their lifetime! Quickly strike a pose!”
Hearing that it was Ho-Oh, Xia was also surprised. It did look like the legendary Pokémon she knew. She said anxiously: “Ho-Oh! I didn't put on any makeup!”
“No time for makeup! Take pictures quickly, or it'll fly away!”
“I know!”
Finally, under Meowth's remote control, Zhi, Xia, and all their Pokémon took a big group picture.
Looking at the pile of photos, Zhi said with satisfaction: “Great! We saw a legendary Pokémon right after we set out. It couldn't be better! I wonder if Professor Oak would be envious to death. This is a photo with a legendary Pokémon!”
“Meow, I look very photogenic, Meow!”
“Pika-pika!”
“Lucky!”
Xia looked at Zhi and asked, “I thought you'd say you'd surpass Ho-Oh with your Pokémon.”
Hearing Xia's words, Zhi was speechless and said: “That’s so childish. Forget it. We’re good like this. I'm not a hot-blooded idiot. Instead of saying those words, it’s better for everyone to take a picture together. These are truly precious things. This wonderful memory.”
With that, Zhi sent Xia her photo and said: “Keep it well. I plan to print these out. My journey is off to a perfect start!”
Looking at Zhi, Xia suddenly had an idea. Maybe travelling with Zhi would be a good journey? So she asked Zhi: “Hey, Zhi, can I travel with you?”
Zhi looked at Xia and seeing her nervous expression, he couldn't help but smile and say: “Of course, no problem.”
