Chapter 1194: I'll Teach You a Couple of Moves

2024-05-15 Author: Samsung Charmander

As he got closer, Ash realized it was the local Ash, whom he had just met during the day.

"Pikachu, next time, use a more powerful Thunderbolt!!"

"Pika...!!"

He and his Pikachu were encouraging each other, doing some extra training.

This scene made Ash's expression relax.

*When I train, it must look like this from a third-person perspective, right?*

Thinking of this, Ash suddenly walked over slowly.

This remote place had few people, and the lighting wasn't very good. The sudden approach made the local Ash tense up.

When he saw it was Tobias, the one who had thrashed him during the day, he let his guard down.

Before he could ask anything, "Tobias" spoke first.

"How about it, Ash from Pallet Town? Need me to teach you a couple of moves?"

"Teach me a couple of moves?"

The local Ash was stunned, unable to react for a moment.

"That's right. Just two moves that a Pikachu can master."

As he spoke, the corners of Ash's mouth turned up, and he glanced at the Pikachu on his shoulder.

Although it had been in a listless state, upon encountering a scene where it could show off in front of a junior, Pikachu finally jumped down, landing in front of the local Pikachu.

The two had different fur colors, and in terms of physique, Ash's Pikachu was slightly larger. Especially in body proportions; the other Pikachu was clearly a size smaller around the belly than his own.

"Pika, pika."

Seemingly sensing its trainer's gaze, Pikachu suddenly turned its head, trying to correct Ash's thoughts.

*Dark colors are slimming, light colors make you look bigger, don't you get it?!*

Ash: "..."

No longer bantering with his Pikachu, he raised a hand and pointed.

"Watch closely. This is the first move, and it's the ultimate move of the Pikachu family... Pikachu, use Volt Tackle!!"

Even after giving its all in the battle earlier, the local Pikachu apparently didn't know this move.

This gave Ash the idea to teach it.

"Pika!"

Today, Pikachu also showed the demeanor of a great senior. It landed on all fours, took a dashing stance, and didn't forget to remind the other Pikachu to watch its movements carefully.

*BZZT-BOOM...!!*

Immediately after, a fierce electric glow erupted from Pikachu's body. When it built up to its peak, it transformed into a shockwave of thunder and lightning. The dazzling light even completely obscured the Pikachu at its center.

"This is...?!"

"Pika...?!"

The local Ash and his Pikachu both stared with wide eyes. They felt an extremely strong pressure from the Volt Tackle.

*What kind of move is this?!*

Finally, Pikachu dashed forward, carrying the force of immense lightning, and the electric glow lit up the entire dim plaza.

*BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!*

Leaving a trail of sparks and lightning, its berserk power carved a long gully into the ground, its might visible to the naked eye.

It ended by crashing heavily into a tree at the edge.

*CRASH!*

A thick tree, wide enough for several people to link arms around, was instantly snapped in half by the Volt Tackle's impact, a thunderous and impressive display.

"Is this a move that Pikachu can learn?!"

"Pika...?!"

After the initial shock, the local—both human and mouse—showed fanatical expressions, eager to try it themselves.

The local Pikachu's expression was filled with immense admiration. It ran up and started chattering away in its mouse-like language.

"Pika, pika!"

Pikachu just rubbed its nose, ignoring the small bump that had formed on its head, indicating that it was just an effortless strike.

This gave it a strange sense of déjà vu.

*Back then, Brother Red's round-faced Pikachu taught me a secret technique in just this way, didn't it?*

*This must be the passing of the torch for the electric mouse family!*

"Volt Tackle has an extremely powerful impact, but you'll also suffer from significant recoil damage, so the timing of your choice is very important..."

Ash continued to explain seriously. This was completely unlike when he was teaching Sawyer bond mastery, which was full of onomatopoeias like "boom" and "hon!"

"Next is the second move. This one isn't really a standard move, only Pokémon with super-high speed have the ability to perform it..."

Ash didn't care whether the other could accept it all; he just dumped all the information out.

*If he's like me... he should be able to copy it successfully.*

"Pikachu, use Extreme Speed!"

Pikachu kicked off, its feet a blur as it dashed forward.

*SWOOSH!*

In the next instant, its form completely vanished from the spot.

On the empty plaza, only a faint, azure afterimage remained.

Combined with the dim surrounding light, the faintly drifting shadow looked incredibly ghostly.

"This is...?!"

The local Ash was completely dumbfounded.

He had seen the move Extreme Speed before on a passerby's Arcanine, but he never expected a Pikachu could master it too.

But what was this speed?! It was countless times faster than his own Pikachu's Quick Attack!

During the day, when Ash had said his Pikachu was his ace, he had been a little doubtful. Now, he was completely won over.

*This person... he must be an Elite Four member from some region, or maybe even a champion, right?!*

"Pika, pika!!"

And when the Extreme Speed ended, the local Pikachu ran up, not hiding its admiration in the slightest.

"Pika..."

Pikachu, however, was panting slightly, letting the other support its weary back.

Its body still hadn't fully recovered from the turbulent flight with the rampaging Mega Rayquaza.

Now it could understand the desire for retirement that Brother Red's senior Pikachu must have felt...

"Well then, keep up the good work."

Having taught him Volt Tackle and Extreme Speed, Ash left with his Pikachu, hiding his deeds and identity.

In the remote plaza, only the local Ash remained.

Although he didn't understand why the other person had suddenly been so friendly, teaching him two ultimate moves.

"In any case, he's not a bad person."

The sense of familiarity coming from Ash made him feel like he was looking at another version of himself, so he quickly accepted the other's goodwill as a matter of course.

"Pikachu, let's hurry up and completely master these two moves... The next time we meet Tobias, we'll definitely overwhelm him!"

"Pika!!"

The human and mouse both clenched their fists, their gazes fiery, feeling that the future was full of infinite promise!

In the distance, watching the local Ash get back to his training, Ash just smiled in gratification.

"When Brother Red was teaching me, he probably felt this way too, huh...?"

Meanwhile, a thousand meters high in the air above LaRousse City.

In a gap in the cloud layer, a red and white hat floated out of thin air, with two eyes protruding above the brim.

Beside it stood a white, humanoid Pokémon with a long, purple tail behind it.

It was none other than Red and Mewtwo.

"..."

Mewtwo raised an arm. Its three-fingered hand clenched slightly as its eyes closed tightly.

*Vmmm!*

The space before it was covered in a faint blue light of psychic power, as if it were trying to sense something.

After a long moment, it opened its eyes.

"It's unstable. I cannot sense our world."

Mewtwo shook its head at Red.

Tearing space apart to forcibly create a path home was something it could do. However, there was nothing in that world to provide it with a direction to travel.

Goodness knows what kind of strange place they would end up transmigrating to.
