For children who are still studying the basics of their language, mathematics and Pokémon knowledge, everything related to Pokémon is novel. However, due to their age, children under 10 rarely delve into these matters. [TN: Author has used Mandarin in place of language here.]
Samuel Oak, a renowned researcher from the Kanto region, organizes Pokémon summer camps that are widely loved worldwide. However, only a few children have the chance to participate. Some families even send their children to Pallet Town from distant places to secure a spot in the camp.
Currently, Professor Oak was holding a summer camp with the aim of fostering a new generation of children’s understanding of the relationship between them and Pokémon.
This aligns with Professor Oak’s expertise, which focuses on researching the relationship between Pokémon and humans.
The location of the summer camp is the rear mountain of Pallet Town.
A little girl wearing a straw hat was walking nervously through the jungle, shouting, “Everyone…”
It seems like she was lost.
Suddenly, the bushes in front of her trembled, causing her to step back in panic. In the process, she inadvertently fell to the ground, her eyes tearing up in pain as she looked in that direction.
Then, a Poliwag jumped out, took a glance at the screaming little girl, and then….ran away.
“That’s why I didn’t want to come to the summer camp!” The little girl, with tear stains on her face, looks aggrieved. “Mommy—”
Perhaps because of her shout, rustling sounds came from both sides of the bushes, making the little girl’s expression instantly freeze and she tightly closed her eyes.
“Poliwag…uhh, what are you doing here?” The first to emerge was a boy with deep green hair. After noticing the little girl, he looked over with curiosity, “I’m Ash, and what happened to you?”
“My… my foot got hurt,” the little girl said.
“Are you okay? Well, in situations , you should do this.” Ash took out a handkerchief, wrapped the girl’s injured knee, and said, “There you go!”
“Ugh… it hurts.” The little girl showed a pained expression.
At this moment, another person came out of the bushes on the other side, a guy with brown-colored hair. Attracted by the scream, he had rushed over, but upon arriving, he found a little boy grinning foolishly and raising his hands, “Pain, pain, fly away!!”
Then… the little girl, who was crying out, “I can’t stand up because of the pain,” was pulled to her feet and hugged by him.
“Wow!!!” Terrance looked utterly dumbfounded.
“Stand up…” The little boy, who was originally smiling and facing the girl, suddenly noticed Terrance’s presence, and both of their attention shifted.
“Um… what’s happening here?” Terrance looked at the two kids and asked.
Following Master Victor’s instructions, Terrance came to Pallet Town to visit Professor Oak. However, upon asking the people in town, he learned that Professor Oak was holding a “summer camp” for children in the rear mountain. So, Terrance had no choice but to come to the rear mountain of Pallet Town.
Upon reaching the rear mountain, Terrance also got lost in a typical fashion. Then he heard screams, rushed over, and witnessed this scene.
“Who are you?” The two kids looked at Terrance with confusion. This big brother probably isn’t a member of the camp attending the summer camp.
“I’m Terrance, I came here to look for Professor Oak in the rear mountain. Do you know where he is?” Terrance showed a gentle smile.
“Professor Oak—” Ash nodded, “Yeah, I know!”
The little girl was shyly hiding behind Ash, her blushing face making Terrance look at her oddly.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll take you there,” Ash said, taking the little girl’s hand. “Be careful, okay? Let’s go back to the camp.”
Next, Terrance followed the two kids, who were walking hand-in-hand, with a strange expression, but fortunately, it didn’t take long before he was brought in front of Professor Oak.
“Ash, did you bring Serena back…oh, who’s the person behind you?” At this moment, Professor Oak was surrounded by a group of children, happily explaining something while holding a Caterpie.
“What’s with the person behind you?” Professor Oak looked at Terrance, who was standing there dumbfounded, and asked.
“This big brother is called Terrance. It seems like he’s here for you,” Ash innocently said.
However, when he turned back, he noticed that the big brother was staring at him. “Uh…”
“Your name is Ash?” Terrance came to his senses.
“Yeah.” Ash nodded vigorously.
“How should I say it… good name and thanks for leading the way,” Terrance said and then he realized something, “Professor Oak, hello, I should have been introduced by Master Victor.”
“Oh? Victor, right. I remember now. Terrance, isn’t it? Thank you for coming all this way,” Professor Oak said.
“It’s nothing,” Terrance said.
Today was the last day of the summer camp. After it ended, Professor Oak brought Terrance to his laboratory in the southeast corner of the town.
Seeing Professor Oak’s Laboratory, Terrance was amazed at its size. Goodness, the size of the backyard was the most astonishing.
After Professor Oak served the refreshments, he formally began the conversation with Terrance.
“Sorry to bother you, Professor Oak.”
“It’s okay. I’m also concerned about that peculiar illness of Ralts mentioned by Victor. Can you let me take a look at it first?” Professor Oak said.
“Of course.” Terrance nodded, and took out Ralts’s Poké Ball, before calling it out.
Seeing the unfamiliar environment, Ralts did not show any unusual emotions. Its past experiences had nurtured a calm demeanor.
“Little one, don’t be afraid. Can you come closer?” Professor Oak smiled at Ralts.
“Ralttts…?” Ralts turned its head, and seeing Terrance’s encouraging smile, slowly walked over. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⚫𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⚫𝘯𝘦𝘵
Professor Oak observed Ralts seriously for a long time, then shook his head helplessly. “Indeed, nothing can be discerned from outside. Have you tried using instruments in your experiments?”
“Yes…” Seeing Professor Oak also at a loss, though expected, Terrance still couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed.
“If you want to change its condition, it seems that only that method will work,” Professor Oak said.
“Yeah, with the help of external forces. The purpose of coming this time is to ask for your help. Master Victor said you should have a way…” Terrance said.
External forces refer to stimuli such as evolutionary stones, evolution items, and other factors that cause a Pokemon to undergo mutation, thereby allowing the Pokemon to evolve from one form to another.
