Chapter 325: The First Pokemon
In the following two or three days, Jessie became May's exclusive sparring partner.
Under Jessie's urging, May's progress was rapid, but by focusing solely on training Beautifly, she had somewhat neglected the feelings of her other Pokemon.
On this day, as usual, May hurriedly took Beautifly out for special training after finishing breakfast.
Her other Pokemon were all left in the care of Ash and Brock.
Suddenly, Nurse Nurse Joy walked by, and Brock, as if triggering a passive ability, instantly stuck to her.
"Nurse Nurse Joy, you've become even more beautiful today!"
"Ah! Thank you."
Nurse Nurse Joy was taken aback by Brock's sudden enthusiasm.
However, when Nurse Joy saw the Hoenn starter Pokemon that Ash and the others were eating, she immediately became interested and asked: "Mr. Ash, are Grovyle, Treecko, Mudkip, and Combusken all your Pokemon?"
"Yes, that's right." Ash nodded in response.
"That's great, you've raised them very well!" Nurse Joy praised.
"To receive praise from Nurse Nurse Joy, I am truly honored," Brock flattered.
Facing Brock's approach, Nurse Nurse Joy was clearly a bit scared, so she quickly changed the subject: "Mr. Ash, the thing is, some children who are about to become Pokemon Trainers are coming to receive their initial Pokemon today. So, I would like to ask for your help, Mr. Ash, to have them cooperate with me for some check-ups to compare data. Would that be possible?"
Before Ash could react, Brock spoke up: "Nurse Nurse Joy, there is no problem with this, please, by all means, let us help!"
"Hehe~ Then I'll leave it to you!" Nurse Nurse Joy said with a laugh.
Seeing this, Ash could only helplessly agree to the matter.
Meanwhile.
May arrived at a beach with Beautifly.
"Beautifly, now we will start our warm-up exercises with the simplest moves."
Beautifly nodded.
"Very good, then let's start with Hurricane!"
Beautifly flapped its wings towards the waves to create a strong wind.
"That's it, keep it up, Beautifly."
But after flapping a few times, Beautifly's attention was drawn to a stranded Wailmer nearby.
May followed Beautifly's gaze and immediately felt that something was wrong.
She ran quickly to the Wailmer's side and used the knowledge Ash and Brock had taught her to perform a check.
But soon, she discovered that the Wailmer's problem was not something she could solve, so she took out her phone to contact the Pokémon Center.
At this time, Ash and Brock, led by Nurse Nurse Joy, arrived at a room with examination equipment.
Looking at the various advanced equipment, Brock exclaimed: "The equipment here is truly amazing!"
"Indeed, this is almost on par with Professor Birch's laboratory," Ash also chimed in.
"Actually, there is no Pokemon laboratory in Slateport City, so new Trainers all start from here," Nurse Nurse Joy explained.
Just as she finished explaining, the machine produced results. "Ah, they are all very healthy! Mr. Ash, could I ask your Pokemon to accompany the new Trainers' Pokemon for some exercise?"
"No problem."
Ash and Brock let out their Pokemon.
Nurse Nurse Joy instructed their Pokemon: "You are all seniors, so please guide them well!"
"Chamo / Chamo / Grovyle~"
Grovyle and the others nodded one after another.
Subsequently, Nurse Nurse Joy released the three beginner-level Hoenn starter Pokemon.
The three Pokemon each had their own personalities: Mudkip was a crybaby, Treecko was a female that looked a bit reserved, and Torchic was active with a hint of mischief.
However, Ash frowned slightly after seeing these three Pokemon. He looked at Nurse Nurse Joy and asked: "Nurse Nurse Joy, isn't this Torchic's level too high?"
[ Pokémon: Torchic ]
[ Type: Fire ]
[ Gender: Male ]
[ Level: 16 (Elite Intermediate) ]
[ Ability: Speed Boost (Speed increases every turn) ]
[ Potential: Elite ]
[ Moves: Scratch, Growl, Ember, Quick Attack, Night Slash (Egg Move) ]
Ash could clearly see that this Torchic was on the verge of evolving; it was clearly one of those stock items that had been kept for a long time without being sent out.
This type of Pokemon clearly no longer met the standards for being given to new Trainers.
Once sent out, there was a possibility that it would not obey the new Trainer's commands before they even caught their first Pokemon.
While people in this world have good physiques, not everyone is a Super Pallet Town Trainer. If they encountered a situation like when Ash went out in the original work, severe injury would be inevitable.
Nurse Nurse Joy explained helplessly: "There's no help for it. This Torchic hasn't found a new Trainer it clicks with yet. And since the starter Pokemon here are all distributed by the League, they won't send new ones until these are sent out or evolved."
Beep beep beep~
At this moment, a rapid ringing sound rang out.
Nurse Nurse Joy pressed the button on the machine, and May's video call appeared on the screen.
May: "Nurse Nurse Joy, something terrible has happened!"
"What exactly happened?" Nurse Nurse Joy asked confusedly.
"A Wailord is stranded on the beach, and it looks very weak."
After understanding the situation, Nurse Nurse Joy handed the three beginner Pokemon to Ash to look after, and then hurried to the scene.
Seeing this, Brock also intended to follow, and Ash could only lend Milotic to Brock to help out.
Milotic has a certain healing ability, and since they are both Water-type Pokemon, it might be able to help.
Once Nurse Nurse Joy left, that Torchic started acting up, putting all its effort into trying to run away, and even Ash's Corphish couldn't stop it.
Seeing this situation, Ash had to step in himself and let Torchic experience what the cruelty of the world is like.
Initially captured by Ash with one hand, Torchic still looked extremely unconvinced, and was even so angry that it evolved.
Whether it was the courage brought by evolution or simply the refusal to be defeated by a human, Combusken used Double Kick on Ash. But as soon as it lifted its leg, Ash hit it in the face with an Aura Sphere, knocking Combusken dizzy.
Then followed a miserable beating. Ash grabbed a chicken leg and swung it over his shoulder, while also healing Combusken several times during the process.
The other Pokemon saw this scene and couldn't help but shrink back, especially the crybaby Mudkip, who was so scared by Ash's actions that it forgot to cry.
The badly beaten Combusken, whether due to admiration for the strong or Stockholm syndrome, came to Ash pitifully after being healed, using Charm and begging to be captured.
Nurse Nurse Joy and the others were quick; not long after Ash finished disciplining Combusken, they returned.
With Milotic's help, they treated the Wailord and sent it back to the sea.
Seeing that Torchic had evolved into Combusken, Nurse Nurse Joy breathed a sigh of relief. She was actually quite afraid that a new Trainer would choose this little guy.
Now that it had evolved into Combusken, it no longer met the requirements for a new Trainer, so she didn't have to worry about these problems anymore.
Learning that Combusken was clinging to Ash, Nurse Nurse Joy was generous and directly gifted Combusken to Ash.
After obtaining Combusken's Poké Ball, Ash also received the corresponding reward from the system—a Blaziken mega stone.
The new Trainer from Slateport City was a little girl who came to the Pokémon Center with her father to choose her initial Pokemon. Nurse Nurse Joy first explained the situation with the Torchic, and the girl's father expressed his understanding.
In the end, the little girl chose Mudkip. The unchosen female Treecko, because it gave a pitiful look, was also successfully spotted and chosen by the girl's father.
