Not Being a Trainer This Time

Chapter 968: Chapter 462: Pikachu: Me Fight Calyrex? (Part 3)

"So beautiful!" May couldn’t help but murmur.

At this time, Ash and Max suddenly remembered the legend they heard about Jirachi.

They looked at the Star Pokemon with curiosity and asked, "I heard that if you make a wish to Jirachi when it wakes up, Jirachi can fulfill any wish, is that true?"

Mew and Teddiursa also looked at Jirachi curiously.

Hearing the talk about itself, Jirachi had a confused look in its eyes: "Wish?"

Naoki leaned on Koraidon, stroking its big paw, smiling as he watched the scene but did not interject.

Max leaned forward, nodding vigorously: "Yes, wish! I want snacks, endless snacks!"

"Snacks, snacks..." Jirachi repeated, then happily flew up.

The Wish Paper on its head lit up.

Suddenly, bags of snacks appeared out of thin air.

Seeing this, Max and Ash’s eyes lit up instantly.

"It really can be fulfilled!" Max was very excited.

Meanwhile, in a store in Porto Marinada Town.

Team Rocket’s trio, who were working there, were complaining to each other.

"It’s all your fault for saying those things where the Dragonite could hear, which led to the destruction of the Meowth Hot Air Balloon!"

"That was our last activity budget! Now we have no choice but to work here!"

"Who could have thought of such a thing?" James couldn’t help but complain: "Besides, you were thinking the same thing!"

"Stop talking meow!" Meowth was tidying up the shelves: "Quickly earn enough money, then I can repair the Meowth Hot Air Balloon, and we can leave this lousy place meow!"

But at that moment, the snacks on the shelves they were responsible for started disappearing one by one.

Seeing this, Meowth was startled: "Haunted meow!"

The store was empty except for the three of them, as night fell, an eerie wind blew, making Jessie and James start feeling scared.

Just then, the warehouse door opened.

It was the store owner coming to check the work progress of these three new employees.

But when the store owner saw the empty shelves, he froze on the spot.

He glared at the three people, shouting: "Before you started working, I clearly said no stealing snacks from the shelves!"

"It wasn’t us meow!" Meowth shook its head quickly.

But there were only them here, no one else.

The owner slammed the door shut: "Hmph, since you have no money, you’ll stay here working until you pay off what you owe! Scovillain, keep an eye on them and make them work hard!"

After speaking, the owner left.

Leaving a strange-looking Pokemon with two heads glaring at them fiercely.

"It really is true! Jirachi can really grant wishes!"

In the ranch, May looked at the snacks scattered around, feeling very excited.

Just as the group prepared to make another wish to Jirachi, Naoki’s voice suddenly came from the side.

"This is the store’s snacks from Porto Marinada Town; they have the shop’s logo on them."

Ash and others turned their heads.

"These snacks were probably transferred by Jirachi from nearby shops." Naoki pretended to speculate.

"Huh?"

May ran over to have a look, and indeed saw the related pattern on them.

"Doesn’t that mean Jirachi doesn’t have the power to create wishes?" Brock noted this point.

"Natural energy is conserved," Naoki explained: "These snacks couldn’t have appeared out of nowhere."

"I see." Ash looked at the snacks, suddenly realizing they had been moved, making the store owner probably very troubled?

Thinking of this, Ash said to Jirachi: "Jirachi, could you help restore these snacks to their original place?"

"Don’t you want the snacks anymore?" Jirachi asked confused.

Before Ash could respond, Teddiursa explained the reason to it.

"Imma imma!"

After hearing, Jirachi showed a realization.

It flew into the sky again, the Wish Paper on its head lit up once more.

In the next second, the snacks disappeared one by one.

"By the way, does Jirachi have plans for the future?" May suddenly recalled something.

Since Jirachi doesn’t need to sleep for a thousand years anymore, it can go anywhere it wants, right?

Hearing the question, everyone turned their eyes to Jirachi.

Jirachi looked at its two good friends it made since waking up, Mew and Teddiursa.

This morning, they took it to the beautiful big tree and visited the Heroic Expedition Team’s secret base. Mew even shared many toys with it.

Moreover, the tree has lots of fun things.

Jirachi really liked it there, thinking it could play for a thousand years and never have enough.

But... Forina still needs it.

That land and the Pokemon living there need it to absorb energy from the stars and then nourish the land.

Thinking of this, a conflicting expression showed on Jirachi’s little face.

What should it do?
