Not a trainer this time.

Chapter 464 Pikachu: I fight with Bud Crown?
"Everyone, come out!"

Looking at the sumptuous meal on the table, Xiaozhi was very happy. He took out several Poké Balls from his pocket and threw them hard.

With flashes of white light, all of Ash's Pokémon appeared in the living room.

Pikachu, Bumblebee, Ocellaris, and Slither.

Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng have been traveling these days and haven't had such a formal meal for a long time.

They all swallowed their saliva, and Xiaoyao couldn't help but say, "Mr. Naoki's cooking skills are great!"

Xiaogang picked up a piece of Bofen and the energy cube and looked closely at it.

"This kind of mellow fragrance and this kind of crystal clear luster can only be produced by a very powerful Pokémon breeder. Mr. Naoki, are you also a Pokémon breeder?" Xiaogang asked.

"It's not that exaggerated. It's just that practice makes perfect." Naoki smiled and shook his head. "There are so many Pokémon in the ranch. I have to make Pofen and energy cubes for them every day. Over time, I have developed a good skill."

"Pikapi..."

Hearing this, Ash's Pikachu picked up a piece of Pofen and put it in his mouth.

The next second, a happy expression appeared on its face.

"Pika~chu~"

"It seems that Pikachu likes it too!" Xiaozhi smiled.

Naoki smiled: "If you like it, eat more."

He turned around and called his Pokémon back to the pasture to come home for dinner.

Accompanied by a clear whistle that spread throughout the pasture.

Pokémon such as Babot, Dragonite, Frostmilax, SirenX, and Uruk-O that were playing outside immediately came running over from all directions.

Gulden and Motor Lizard were waiting in the living room early, while Eevee and the others went to play on the World Tree.

Even though they had already visited the ranch in the morning, Xiaozhi and the others couldn't help but be attracted by so many Pokémon they had never seen before.

"There are so many types of Pokémon here!" Xiaoyao exclaimed.

Xiao Sheng looked around and suddenly realized something. He asked, "Huh? Where are Jirachi and Mew?"

"Maybe he was taken to their secret base by Dream and Baby Bear!" Naoki explained: "That is a secret place created by Dream using the secret power technique. Even I don't know the exact location!"

Xiaozhi was about to say something, but the next second, a Pokémon with a big head suddenly appeared in the living room.

Pikachu, Bimbisara and other Pokémon who were eating were startled by the newcomers and let out screams.

When Xiaogang saw the Pokémon, he immediately opened his eyes wide in shock.

"What Pokémon is that?!"

Xiaozhi immediately took out the Rotom Phone and pointed it at the Bud Crown.

The next second, Rotom's electronic voice sounded from the phone.

"Bud Crown, the king Pokémon, has the power of healing and blessing, and is a Pokémon with a heart full of love!"

"Bud Crown King?!" Xiaoyao exclaimed: "Could it be..."

She immediately thought of the legend that had been making a lot of noise on the Internet.

Xiaogang had already opened the Pokémon forum and clicked on his follow list. He soon found a netizen named Raphimosa.

"Yes, it's the legendary Pokémon!" Xiaogang nodded in shock.

He looked at Naoki standing beside him, and thinking of what Professor Oak had just said about his previous visit to Naoki's ranch, an incredible idea immediately emerged in Xiaogang's mind.

No wonder Professor Oak published the paper on the Flower Crown King afterwards...

So the trainer who conquered Crown of Buds was Mr. Naoki?
"Don't be so surprised." Naoki chuckled, "Just treat Bud Crown as an ordinary Pokémon."

King Lei Guan also came over to eat after hearing the whistle.

Hearing this, He nodded slightly, looked at the young humans in front of him, and said:
"Don't worry, I'm no longer a king. Now I'm just an ordinary farmer."

Xiaozhi and the others opened their eyes wide, looking so shocked that they were speechless.

"Okay, let's eat!" Naoki said.

Everyone sat around the dining table, and Xiaozhi, Xiaogang, Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng looked at the Bud Crown from time to time.

This was their first time dining with Legendary Pokémon, and it felt incredible!
Xiaozhi's face was full of eagerness to try.

"Mr. Naoki, can I challenge the Bud Crown King later?"

Naoki was slightly startled.

Instead, the Lotus Crown King looked at the young man with interest and asked, "Do you want to fight me?"

Xiaozhi nodded vigorously, with a gleam of longing in his eyes:
"Well, because meeting all the Pokémon in the world and becoming a Pokémon Master has always been my goal!"

"What happens after that?" asked the Rose Crown King again.

"After that..." Xiaozhi thought about it carefully, and then replied: "I will go to every corner of the world with Pikachu and the others to meet Pokémon that I have never seen before!"

"Xiaozhi..." Xiaoyao looked at Xiaozhi in a daze.

Naoki didn't know what to say for a moment.

The Bud Crown seemed to be moved by Xiaozhi's words.

He nodded slightly, and then accepted Xiaozhi's challenge: "Okay, I accept your challenge."

"That's great!" Xiaozhi was very excited.

Naoki looked at Satoshi's Pokémon with an uncertain look.

Pikachu, Boomstick, Swallow, Squirrel...

Except for Pikachu, the other three Pokémon were captured by Ash not long ago, right?
At this time, Xiaozhi's Pikachu's strength has not yet reached its peak.

However, the opponent they have to face is the Flower Crown King who has surpassed his heyday...

Pikachu: I fight Bud Crown?
You can't win no matter how hard you try, okay?
But when he thought about it and realized it was Xiaozhi, Naoki felt that this was normal.

After all, Xiaozhi had just set out on a journey, and after completing the test of the Rainbow Hero, he challenged Ho-Oh.

Because he couldn't wait to fight, Xiaozhi ate his lunch very quickly.

Seeing this scene, Xiaoyao couldn't help but complain: "Xiaozhi is such a jerk..."

Xiaogang, who had traveled with Xiaozhi for many years, crossed his arms and nodded with a smile: "This is Xiaozhi's style!"

After lunch, the group came to the battle site in the ranch.

The Bud Crown floated to the battlefield, while Naoki, Haruka and the other two stood together.

"Huh? Mr. Naoki, aren't you going to give the orders?" Xiaoyao asked.

Naoki shook his head: "The Bud Crown King knows what to do."

On the field, as expected, Xiaozhi sent Pikachu to fight.

"It's decided to be you, go ahead! Pikachu!" Xiaozhi pointed his finger forward.

The Pikachu standing on his shoulder immediately jumped down and rushed to the opposite side of the Bud Crown.

"Pikapi!"

The battle officially begins.

The Bud Crown on the opposite side clearly didn't move, but Pikachu still felt a tangible superpower from him.

This made Pikachu's face show a solemn expression.

But it did not retreat, but bravely faced it.

"Pikachu, use one hundred thousand volts!"

"P-Pikachu!"

As the command was given, a powerful electric current suddenly burst out from Pikachu's body.

The dense electric light transformed into countless bolts of lightning and rushed towards the Flower Crown King in front.

Faced with this scene, the Bell Crown did not dodge. Instead, his mind moved slightly, and a transparent wall of light appeared in front of him, blocking all of Pikachu's 100,000 volts.

"Pikapi?!" Pikachu was shocked.

The opposite side's Crown of Roses also launched an attack.

His super powers took shape and he launched a fierce attack towards Pikachu.

The attack was so fast that Pikachu had no time to react and was blasted backwards.

"Pikachu!" Xiaozhi shouted quickly, "Hold on!"

After hearing this, Pikachu actually persisted.

With wounds all over its body, it gritted its teeth and looked at the Flower Crown King opposite it.

Seeing this, Xiaozhi's brain worked quickly, and he decisively changed his strategy: "Pikachu, use Lightning Flash!"

"Pikapi!"

After the command was given, Pikachu's body began to run rapidly, and finally turned into a white light and rushed towards the Bud Crown.

However, facing this scene, the Bud Crown just raised his hand lightly, and instantly condensed a ball of spiritual energy, flying towards Pikachu. The next second, Pikachu collided with this spiritual power.

Accompanied by a loud explosion, Xiaozhi's Pikachu was knocked away again, fell to the ground and lost its ability to fight.

At this point, the battle is over.

"It's worthy of being a legendary Pokémon!" Looking at this scene, Xiaogang couldn't help but sigh out loud.

Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng were also shocked by the powerful strength of the Bud Crown King.

Judging from the powerful strength that Bud Crown just displayed, Xiaozhi's Pikachu has no chance of winning at all.

However, Xiaozhi was not discouraged by losing. Instead, he sincerely thanked the Bud Crown King.

The Bud Crown nodded slightly, then used a healing wave on Pikachu, then disappeared from the spot and went to the glass greenhouse to play with her phone.

"How do you feel?" Naoki walked forward and asked with a smile.

Xiaozhi nodded vigorously: "Yes, the Bud Crown King is really powerful!"

As he said that, he turned his head and looked at Naoki's other Pokémon, and said with full fighting spirit:

"Mr. Naoki, let's continue the battle! Boomstick and Smurfette can also have Pokémon battles!"

Naoki: "..."

All right! He had promised Xiaozhi this morning, and Naoki couldn't break his promise.

Therefore, Naoki summoned a few Pokémon at random and used them to fight Pokémon battles with Satoshi one after another.

By the time it was over, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

Naoki went to work on the ranch, preparing today's goods and selling them to Zack.

Xiaozhi took Pikachu and the others to help Zoanthropus expend its energy.

Young people are always full of energy. Xiaozhi never seems to feel tired, and Naoki always feels that he has enough energy to compete with Hyperactive Monkey.

Xiaogang and Xiaosheng began to observe the Pokémon ecology in the ranch.

Looking at the many Pokémon in the ranch, Xiaosheng was extremely envious.

He also wants to grow up quickly, have his own Pokémon, and travel with them!

After seeing Zack off, Naoki returned to the ranch and saw Satoshi and Ape lying on the grass together, panting from exhaustion.

Naoki noticed that the hyperactive monkey's eyes seemed to be full of affection for the young man who was willing to go crazy with it.

Seeing this scene, Naoki nodded silently and had a general idea in his mind.

After dinner, Dream, Baby Bear and Jirachi returned to the ranch.

Because today is the second day after the arrival of the Millennium Comet.

Although the grand spectacle of the millennium comet passing through the sky cannot be seen in Ziqin Town, the night sky on the ranch side is also filled with stars.

After dark, Naoki took Satoshi and the others to watch the stars on the ranch.

Jirachi, Mew and the others also sat obediently on the grass, looking up at the summer night sky with everyone else.

"So beautiful!" Xiaoyao couldn't help but murmur.

At this moment, Xiaozhi and Xiaosheng suddenly remembered the rumors about Jirachi that they had heard before.

They looked at the star Pokémon and asked curiously, "I heard before that if you make a wish to Jirachi when it wakes up, Jirachi will be able to fulfill it no matter what the wish is. Is that true?"

Dream and Baby Bear on the side also looked at Jirachi curiously.

Hearing several people talking about him, Jirachi's eyes were filled with confusion: "Wish?"

Naoki leaned on Gulton, stroked its big paws, and watched the scene with a smile on his face, but did not interrupt.

Xiaosheng came forward and nodded vigorously: "Yes, a wish! I want snacks, endless snacks!"

"Snacks, snacks..." Jirachi repeated, then flew up happily.

The wishing note on its head lit up.

Then, bags of snacks suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Seeing this scene, Xiaosheng and Xiaozhi's eyes lit up.

"It can actually be achieved!" Xiaosheng was very excited.

At the same time, in a store in Ziqin Town.

The three members of Team Rocket who were working here were complaining to each other.

"It's all your fault. Those Dragonites heard what you said and destroyed the Meowth Hot Air Balloon!"

"That's our last bit of activity funding! Now we have no choice but to come here to work!"

"Who could have thought of something like that?" Kojiro couldn't help but complain, "And you guys thought that too!"

“Stop talking, meow!” Meow Meow was tidying up the shelves. “Hurry up and make enough money so I can repair the Meow Meow hot air balloon and leave this damn place, meow!”

However, at this moment, the snacks on the shelves they were responsible for disappeared one after another.

Seeing this scene, Meow Meow was startled: "It's haunted, meow!"

There were only three of them in the store warehouse at this time. The sky outside the window had darkened, and with a gust of cold wind blowing, Musashi and Kojiro began to feel scared.

And just at this moment, the door of the warehouse opened.

It turned out that the store owner came to check the work progress of the three new employees.

But when the store owner saw the empty shelves, he was stunned for a moment.

He glared at the three men and yelled, "I've already told you before you start working, you are absolutely not allowed to steal snacks from the shelves!"

"It wasn't us who did it, meow!" Meow Meow quickly shook his head.

However, there were only them here, no one else.

The boss slammed the door shut and said, "Humph, since you have no money, then stay here and work until you pay off your debts! La Jiao, keep an eye on them and make them work hard!"

After saying that, the boss left.

Only a strange-looking Pokémon with two heads was left, staring at them fiercely.

*
"It's true! Jirachi can really help people fulfill their wishes!"

In the pasture, Xiaoyao was very excited looking at the snacks all over the ground.

Just as they were about to make a wish to Kiraqi again, Naoki's voice suddenly came from the side.

"This is a snack from a store in Zhaqin Town. It has the store logo on it."

Xiaozhi and the others turned their heads to look over.

"I'm afraid these snacks were transferred by Jirachi from nearby stores." Naoki pretended to guess.

"Eh?"

Xiaoyao ran over to take a look, and sure enough, he saw the relevant pattern on it.

"Doesn't that mean Jirachi doesn't have the power to fulfill wishes?" Xiaogang noticed this.

"Energy in nature is conserved." Naoki explained: "These snacks can't be conjured out of thin air."

"I see." Xiaozhi looked at the snacks and suddenly realized that they had been moved away. The owner of the store must be troubled, right?
Thinking of this, Xiaozhi said to Jirachi: "Jirachi, please help me restore these snacks to their original state!"

"Don't you want snacks?" Jirachi asked confusedly.

Before Xiaozhi could say anything, the baby bear beside him explained the reason to him.

"One, one, one!"

After hearing this, Jirachi looked enlightened.

It flew into the air again, and the wishing paper above its head lit up again.

The next second, these snacks disappeared one bag after another.

"By the way, what are Jirachi's plans for the future?" Xiaoyao suddenly remembered something.

Now that Jirachi no longer needs to sleep for a thousand years, it can go wherever it wants, right?

Hearing this question, everyone looked towards Jirachi.

Jirachi looked at the two good friends he had made since he woke up, Mew and Baby Bear.

This morning, they took it to the beautiful big tree and visited the secret base of the Hero Expedition Team. Menghuan also shared a lot of toys with it.

Moreover, there are many interesting things on that tree.

Jirachi likes it there very much. It feels like even a thousand years of playing there wouldn’t be enough.

But...Fiennes still needs it.

That land and the Pokémon that live there all need it to absorb energy from the stars and then nourish the land.

Thinking of this, Jirachi's little face showed a conflicted expression.

What should it do?
