It, Crimson, and Pikachu were enveloped within it, and then the three figures gradually turned into phantoms, disappearing from the spot with a "whoosh!"

183. Trainers from Kanto gather for the Indigo League's rewards! (Please subscribe to the full list)

Deep within Big Fool Valley!

"Xiaozhi, are you okay?"

"Pikachu, how's it going?"

"Jay!!!"

At the cave entrance, Misty, Brock, and Squirtle, who had been watching the cave, saw Ash, Pikachu, and the Team Rocket trio gradually floating up with the help of purple psychic powers. They immediately surrounded Ash and Pikachu, asking them with concern.

"I'm fine. It was Brother Chi who saved me and Pikachu."

Looking at Xiaoxia, Xiaogang, and Squirtle who were concerned about him, Xiaozhi felt a little touched. He scratched the back of his head and chuckled in response.

"Pikachu! Pikachu!"

Pikachu nodded and responded with a call.

As for the Rockets trio, they vanished the moment they appeared, leaving the area.

It was at this time.

Boom! ...

The ground shook, and the pile of stones beside the cave entrance collapsed again, rushing towards the entrance. In no time, the entrance was completely covered by rocks, and the entire cave collapsed completely!

"What? Ash, where's Red?"

As the tremors subsided, Misty stood up and looked at the collapsed cave entrance, now covered by rocks and clods of earth, and called out to Ash.

"Brother Red, didn't Brother Red come out with me?" Upon hearing this, Ash was immediately stunned, then rushed towards the collapsed cave entrance:

"Brother Chi, he hasn't come out yet, has he?"

"How could this happen?"

"Brother Chi, please don't let anything happen."

Upon hearing Xiaozhi's words, Xiaogang and Xiaoxia became anxious and rushed towards the original cave entrance.

Unfortunately, the cave had collapsed, and the entrance was completely covered by rocks and soil, so they were unable to find the original cave.

Just as the three of them were getting anxious.

Whoosh—!

Three purple phantoms suddenly appeared, followed by Crimson, Pikachu, and Espeon.

"what happened?"

With the help of Espeon's Teleport, Red emerged from the cave and glanced around. Seeing the three people staring at him with anxious expressions, he asked them a question.

"Brother Chi, are you alright?"

"That's great, Brother Chi."

"It's alright, it's alright, Chi."

"Pika~chu!"

Upon hearing Red's question, Ash, Pikachu, and the others breathed a sigh of relief and expressed their concern to Red.

"..."

Seeing this, Chi Hong was slightly taken aback, but felt a warmth in her heart. A smile appeared on her lips, and she nodded gently in response.

...

...

After exchanging pleasantries with Ash and his two friends for a while...

Finally, after Ash repeatedly challenged Red to defeat him at the Indigo League, Red said goodbye.

After saying goodbye to Ash and his friends, he turned around cleanly and left with Pikachu.

Ash and his friends continued their journey, heading towards their path and their destination!

...

...

Fuchsia City, Pokémon Center!

After saying goodbye to Ash and leaving Big Fool Valley, Red returned to Fuchsia City to prepare to send Aerodactyl back to the lab.

"...?"

As he walked to the entrance of the Pokémon Center, looking at the almost entirely filled Pokémon Trainers inside, and considering the situation he had encountered on the way there, Red couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

He was only gone for half a day, and now there are so many trainers in Fuchsia City?

With questions in mind, I entered the Pokémon Center, went to the communications area, found an empty computer, sat down, and skillfully dialed Professor Oak's lab number.

“Ding~dong!”

"Hello, this is Professor Oak's lab. Who are you? What can I do for you?"

"Huh? It's Xiao Chi. What's up calling me at this hour?"

After a brief screen flash, the call was connected, and Professor Oak's familiar face appeared on the screen.

"Um, Professor Oak, I've caught a... well... rather rare Pokémon, and I'd like to ask you for help with it..."

"What? A rare Pokémon? What Pokémon? Quick, send it to me so I can see it!"

Upon hearing this, Professor Oak immediately pressed his face against the screen, leaving Red speechless for a moment. He then ignored the other party and began to state his requirements.

Then, with Professor Oak's agreeable expression, the fossil aeroda was placed on the teleportation slot, and Professor Oak prepared everything.

I pressed the power button, and a white light flashed.

The Poké Ball containing Aerodactyl was then teleported to Professor Oak.

"Alright, I understand. I know your request. If I remember correctly, that girl will be coming today, and I will pass on the message to her."

"Goodbye! If you find any rare Pokémon next time, remember to contact me!"

Professor Oak hung up the phone immediately after saying that, and the screen went black.

"..."

Red sat in front of the computer, staring at the black screen, shook his head slightly speechlessly, then got up and walked towards Miss Joey, who had already finished her work.

"Hello, Miss Joy, I'd like to ask you something. Do you know why there are suddenly so many more trainers at the Fuchsia Gym?"

Red approached the counter and, seeing Nurse Joy, who seemed exhausted from working with so many trainers and hadn't bothered with maintaining a ladylike image as she casually sat down to rest, asked...

"Ah? Don't you know?"

Upon hearing this, Miss Joey was slightly taken aback, gazing at the handsome face of the man in crimson, especially his striking crimson eyes.

Then, under the other party's questioning gaze, he explained, "This morning, the Kanto Alliance released 'Rewards for the Quartz Conference'."

"The current Quartz Convention has added extra rewards in addition to trophies and medals, and has set up rare rewards for the champion, runner-up and third place, as well as rewards for the top four and top eight."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Crimson nodded slightly in understanding, then spoke thoughtfully:

"It has attracted so many trainers, and even trainers from other regions, to the Kanto region."

"The fact that this phenomenon has occurred means that the prize money for first, second, and third place must be quite attractive, right?"

Miss Joey nodded with an expression that said, "You're very good," and continued:

"Very clever! Indeed, the key to attracting so many trainers from other regions to the Kanto region is the reward for the first, second, and third place winners!"

"This is a reward that's impossible to refuse!"

"Initiated by the Kanto League, with Lance, the Dragon King, Steven, the Hoenn Champion, and Cynthia, the Sinnoh Champion, providing the descendants of Champion-level Pokémon!"

"This is the offspring of a Champion-level Pokémon. I believe no one could refuse it, right?"

"Fortunately, this Indigo League has age restrictions for participants, otherwise, there would probably be countless more trainers participating in the 1.6 Indigo League."

"..."

After listening, Chi Hong nodded knowingly, his eyes filled with excitement.

Of course, the excitement wasn't because I was able to obtain the offspring of three champion-level Pokémon, but because of the trainers who participated in the Indigo League!

Although the large number of participants may lead to a mixed bag of individuals, the age restrictions ensure that those who successfully participate in the Quartz Conference are at least capable.

The thought of battling so many trainers made Crimson's heart, which couldn't resist the urge to fight, burn with excitement.

Hopefully, this Quartz convention will feature more interesting opponents!

184. Professor Oak and the Aerodactyl: Yellow's Decision! (Please Subscribe!)

Pallet Town, Professor Oak's laboratory.

"Professor Oak, excuse me."

A young girl slowly pushed open the door of the research institute, walked in, and politely greeted the visitors.

Looking around, he noticed that Professor Oak, who usually conducted research at the lab, wasn't there, and immediately asked in confusion, "Huh? Isn't Professor Oak here?"

"Is it... still in the backyard?"

The girl pondered for a moment with some confusion, then headed towards the backyard of the research institute, intending to find Professor Oak, who was researching Pokémon somewhere.

...

...

Meanwhile, in the research institute's backyard!
