After capturing Bulbasaur, Ash began to contact his employees, and soon, a group of workers arrived. The leader saluted Ash and said, "Boss, everyone is here. Shall we begin?"

"Very well, let's begin. Install the rehabilitation equipment, then notify the planting staff that they will be working with Miss Melanie to plant these purple flowers. If successful, inform the Joy family to collect the medicinal herbs regularly. Also, remember to protect Miss Melanie and ensure she is not disturbed when treating wild Pokémon!"

"Yes! Then let's get started!"

Watching Ash at this moment, Misty couldn't help but say, "Ash is completely different when he's serious..."

Giselle, however, was used to it and said, "That money-grubber may love making money, but he is very serious about making medicine. It's one of his rare virtues."

While the two were talking, Brock, blushing, approached Melanie and said, "Miss Melanie, do you need me to stay here to protect everyone?"

Hearing Brock's words, Melanie smiled and said, "No need. If they are Ash's people, they will definitely be able to protect this place."

Click!

The group seemed to hear the sound of a broken heart, and Ash patted Brock's shoulder, saying, "Take it easy." Pikachu also held back a smile and patted Brock's shoulder.

After bidding farewell to Melanie, Ash and his companions continued their journey. However, Ash was about to transfer his Beedrill to Giovanni.

"Dad, I'm going to transfer my Beedrill over. Please prepare the medicinal bath for it."

"Oh? Your Beedrill is ready already?"

"Yes, it's ready for the medicinal bath now. It will benefit its future growth."

"Alright, transfer it over when you reach Vermilion City. I'll have my Beedrill teach it a thing or two." Hearing that Ash's Beedrill had been well-trained, a faint smile appeared on Giovanni's lips.

"By the way, Dad, if it's possible, could your Beedrill teach my Beedrill that move?"

"Sure, it's a move you developed after all. There's no problem letting your Pokémon learn it."

After ending the call, Serena looked at Ash with some confusion and asked, "Ash, when did you have a dad?"

"Can you talk? But he's not my biological father. My real dad probably doesn't even know where he's dead. The one I contacted is my godfather, and my mom has known about it for a long time."

"Godfather?" *3

"Yeah, when we first met, I didn't know how he got injured, so I could only treat him first and then take him to the hospital. After that, we kept in touch, and eventually, we became godfather and godson."

"..." *3

"Meow, the boss was famously nosy when he was a kid," Meowth seemed to recall his encounter with Ash and teased with a smile. Ash, on the other hand, picked up Meowth and said with a laugh, "If I weren't nosy, how could I have met you all?" (Kirlia? Since it's not a child anymore, it's back in the Luxury Ball.)

As the group was walking, Ash suddenly stopped. Seeing this, Misty, Melody, and Brock also stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"

"There's a trap. Meowth, use Shadow Ball."

"Got it, meow!"

With a flick of Meowth's hand, a small Shadow Ball exploded on the ground, revealing a large hole in the middle of the road. Ash then looked towards the nearby bushes and said, "Come out, your blue color is way too easy to spot."

"Squirtle?! Squirtle"

"Squirtle! Squirtle"

Following Ash's words, a group of sunglasses-wearing Squirtles emerged from the bushes, glaring at Ash and his three companions. Ash looked at these Squirtles and suddenly smiled, saying, "What's this? Just a bunch of kids."

Without caring whether he would be attacked or not, Ash walked forward, squatted down, and looked directly into Squirtle's eyes.

"Only an idiot would abandon you. Can you tell me your story? Meowth can translate your words, and I have food here."

As he spoke, Ash took out the cake he had made earlier using Chansey's eggs and Miltank's milk.

Squirtle looked at Ash, then exchanged glances with its comrades, and finally nodded.

—— Dividing Line ——

"Squirtle, Squirtle! Squirtle Squirtle!"

"My goodness, Meowth, was your former trainer really that stupid? He actually made you fight against Electabuzz?!"

At this moment, Ash and his companions were sitting in a circle with the Squirtle squad. The Squirtles were eating cake while recounting their experiences of being abandoned. Some Squirtles even started crying as they told their stories, and Ash would comfort them like a child, holding them in his arms.

"Alright, alright, don't cry, don't cry. That kind of person doesn't deserve to be a trainer. Be good now."

"Squirtle! Squirtle!"

While Ash and the others were comforting the emotionally hurt Squirtle, Officer Jenny arrived. However, she felt much more at ease upon seeing Ash, understanding that the situation must have already been resolved.

"Ash."

"Officer Jenny, you're here. Would you like to have some cake I made and then a cup of hot chocolate?"

"Sure."

Subsequently, Officer Jenny joined the small gathering and learned about the tragic experiences of the Squirtle.

"I see, your original owner is really... But since you've caused mischief, you should properly apologize."

"Squirtle! Squirtle!"

The Squirtle, now much better psychologically thanks to Ash's comfort, agreed to apologize. Ash, looking at the Squirtle, couldn't help but say, "How about it, Squirtle, would you like to become our Pokémon?"

"Squirtle?"

"Don't worry, everyone here is very kind. Besides, Officer Jenny probably needs Squirtle's help to prevent forest fires, right?"

Hearing Ash's words, Officer Jenny couldn't help but say, "That's right! This area of the mountains is indeed prone to fires. If the Squirtle are willing to help, that would be great."

"So, Squirtle, what's your decision?"

The Squirtle looked at Ash, thinking about the sense of security it felt in Ash's arms, and finally nodded, extending its small hand to Ash.
