Pokémon: Dreams Come True Starting in Sinnoh

Chapter 387 The Unique "Sour and Smelly" Smell

"Here, try this~ Ah, that one's nice too, it's just a shame it's not available for sale yet—"

"Hmm, isn't this a bit too much? We could save some room for later tonight, right?"

"Skin?"

Xiao Zhi was carrying a large pile of snacks and treats that Xiao Xia had just bought from various vendors.

Although Ash loves eating just as much as he loves Pokémon battles, he prefers to save his stomach for the evening in order to experience the true fun of the festival.

Furthermore, judging from Xiaoxia's posture, she doesn't seem to be stopping anytime soon, as if she intends to empty the entire place.

Pikachu, on the other hand, didn't understand Ash's willingness to back down when it came to food. It then took a bite of the candied apple it had just bought and secretly slipped it into Ash's bag of street snacks.

"I saw what you were doing! Don't just take one bite! If you're going to eat it, finish it all!"

"Pikachu! (I can't eat anymore!)"

Even when you're in the wrong, you can still be arrogant.

Anyway, Pikachu knows that Misty is definitely on its side, and as Ash's best partner, what's wrong with her testing Ash's food for poison before he eats it? That's so typical of her!

Along the way, Pikachu used this trick—taking a bite of each food item and giving the rest to Ash—to basically try all the food there. All that's left is to wait until nightfall when all the shops open, and then you can achieve the feat of eating your way through the festival.

"Really..."

Xiao Zhi sighed helplessly.

Although that's what he said, Xiao Zhi didn't complain at all. Anyway, he could eat it all after exercising and digesting it.

Compared to myself.

"Does Xiaoguang want to eat?"

Xiao Zhi subconsciously handed over the apple candy he had just taken a bite of and asked.

For some reason, even though it was his hometown holding such a grand festival, Xiao Guang was initially very excited and said he would have a good time. But when he actually arrived at the venue, Xiao Guang's mood seemed a little strange.

I wouldn't say I'm happy, but I'm not exactly annoyed either.

It's more of a feeling of having something to say but being unable to express it.

"want!"

Xiao Guang answered this question almost without hesitation.

Xiaoxia walked beside Xiaozhi, turning her head slightly to look at Xiaoguang with great interest.

"Why is it suddenly so loud? That's strange..."

Ash had no idea how Dawn could experience such extreme emotional swings.

But it's also nice that Xiaoguang's mood improved so easily. Maybe sugar can bring happiness?

Xiao Zhi didn't understand, but he still took out another string of candied apples from the bag he was carrying.

The sugar was also thoughtfully wrapped up by the vendor so that they could eat it later.

"Oh--"

Xiao Guang's face immediately darkened again. He simply gave a reluctant reply and accepted the candied apple that Xiao Zhi handed him.

If asked whether it's okay to give someone else food that you've already eaten, Xiao Zhi's answer is definitely no.

After all, this is a basic hygiene issue. Ash wouldn't do something like this if he were dizzy or careless.

Hmm? You mean eating what Pikachu ate?

Please.

Those were my dearest friends and family, my soulmates.

They don't care about whether it's dirty or not!

Watching Xiao Guang change his appearance multiple times in just half a minute, he scratched the back of his head in confusion, but still couldn't figure it out.

Moreover, he was more concerned about Xiaoxia than Xiaoguang, who was watching the scene with a smug smile. He knew that Xiaoxia was probably thinking about something bad when she made that expression, so he quickly shifted his attention to the stall next to him and made a hasty escape.

.......

"You look really down, Hikaru~"

"Huh?"

Xiao Guang, who was slumped over and eating an apple candy with a resentful expression, suddenly heard Xiao Xia's words and his body instinctively straightened up.

She quickly looked up, her face showing embarrassment, and forced a smile, saying, "What... what are you talking about?"

His tone was hesitant and he looked guilty. Even if Ash were here, it would be clear that Dawn was trying to change the subject.

"Don't even mention it. You know perfectly well what you're doing."

Xiaoxia shrugged and ultimately didn't continue the conversation.

However, although the topic of "hygiene" had ended, Xiaoxia began to seriously look at Xiaoguang.

This was their first official meeting, so Xiaoxia was also a little curious about this girl who had been mentioned many times.

Even though Xiaoxia has now taken over the Cerulean Dojo and spends most of her time there, it doesn't mean that she's completely indifferent to outside news.

Misty has never missed any news about Ash, especially not about him, all this time.

She bought and read every newspaper and magazine in the Sinnoh region that was related to Ash.

So Misty was probably the first one to know about the news about Ash and Dawn.

Even though Xiaoxia knew about Xiaoguang's situation from the very beginning, she didn't care, since no one knew Xiaozhi's situation better than her.

Let alone elm wood.

Even calling it "rotten wood" is an overstatement.

Ash has absolutely no interest in things like romance; his mind is almost entirely focused on his Pokémon.

Xiaoxia even wondered if Ash might not have had any such thoughts before becoming a Pokémon Master.

Although she didn't know the answer, at least for now, Ash was definitely still the Ash she knew.

but.

Xiaoxia didn't believe the media reports, but she had to believe Xiaoyao's account to some extent.

"You might not believe it, but Ash is incredibly kind to that girl named Dawn! And Dawn clearly has feelings for Ash..."

I remember calling her that very night when May arrived in the Sinnoh region for the Wallace Cup.

If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't leave the gym, Xiaoxia had actually thought about coming during the few days of the Mikkuri Cup. But after calming down, Xiaoxia decided to come at another time, otherwise it would feel a little strange to go with Xiaoyao.

Fortunately, she eventually found such an opportunity.

This is an opportunity to come to the Sinnoh region with Hanako and Professor Oak.

It turns out that Ash was actually quite excited to see me arrive!

And the girl who traveled with Ash was just as May had described.

They're completely obsessed with Ash.

Even just a fleeting glance from Hikari towards Satoshi always gave Misty that "sour smell" often described in TV dramas.

.......
