Chapter 123 Sunshine, Beach, and Dating

"By the way, is something being built there?" As they walked towards the city, Ash and his group noticed the construction on the sea not far away, which looked like some kind of building.

"Why don't we ask?" Misty was curious about this, so she found a shop by the side of the road and inquired about the situation there while buying iced drinks.

"That's Grandma Yin who wants to build a luxury hotel on the sea..." The waiter answered Misty's question.

Hearing this, Ash raised his brows slightly, remembering the plot in the original book, where he encountered a huge Tentacruel with a special mutation in Rampurqi. The reason... seemed to be because of this luxury hotel on the sea.

It's just that although Ash knows about this, he doesn't know whether this will happen in the real world.

After all, it's just an anime. Here in the real world, the League shouldn't just sit back and watch this happen.

The group of Tentacool and Tentacruel probably migrated to another place, right?

On the way to the Pokémon Center, Ash was a little restless and worried that the situation in the anime would happen. Judging from the situation in the anime, Rampur was submerged in seawater. He didn't know how many people and Pokémon were killed.

"There shouldn't be any problem, trust the League..." Thinking about Santo Anno, Ash gradually felt relieved. Although Santo Anno was also silent in the anime, there wasn't a crossover at that time. So in reality, this matter should also change, and it may not even happen.

After all, the League's purpose is to promote the peaceful coexistence of humans and Pokémon. If the luxury hotel on the sea built by the so-called Granny Silver hurts Tentacool and the others, the League will not allow it.

At the Pokémon Center, after checking into the dormitory, Misty couldn't wait to go to the dormitory to pack her luggage. She wanted to go to the beach in the afternoon, so she changed into her swimsuit in the room.

After putting on a piece of clothing outside, she knocked on the dormitory where Ash and Brock were staying.

"I won't go, I have other things to do!" Brock wisely let the two of them be alone. He also wanted to see a "Big Sister" by himself, mainly because no one could hinder him.

Every time he wanted to talk to a "Big Sister", Ash's Bulbasaur would jump out and kidnap him, which made him develop a psychological shadow on Bulbasaur.

After Misty gave Brock a knowing look, she pulled Ash and left the Pokémon Center, heading for the beach by car.

In fact, the Pokémon Center was not very far from the beach, and it only took ten minutes to walk, but Misty just wanted to experience the feeling of riding with Ash.

After getting off the car, the two did not go directly to the beach but rented some supplies, such as parasols and chairs, from the store on the slope of the beach embankment.

Misty also bought a popsicle and ate it. Ash was not interested, so she took the things and walked down the embankment to the beach, found an open space, put up the umbrella, and laid down the blanket.

Although it was only around 1:30 p.m., there were still many people on the beach. Some played in the sea, and some were on the Water Sport a little farther away.

The two sat under the umbrella, applied sunscreen, and enjoyed the sea breeze for a while, then took Pikachu to play in the sea.

Both Ash and Misty could swim, but of course, the purpose of coming to the beach was not to swim but to play. So they took the rented ball and played in the water.

"Have fun, Pikachu!" After playing for a while, the two returned to the shore with Pikachu and sat under the umbrella to rest.

"Pika-pika!" Pikachu nodded to Misty.

"Then let's go try those water sports later. I want to take that jet ski, and that banana boat!" Although Misty said to Pikachu, she looked at Ash.

"No problem." Ash agreed naturally.

After a short rest, the two took Pikachu to experience the water sports again, played a few sports, and did not return to the beach until the evening, ready to watch the sunset.

The location of the beach faced west, where they could clearly see the scene of the setting sun falling into the sea, which was very beautiful.

Ash and Misty packed up their things and left after the afterglow of the setting sun fell into the sea. They didn't go to the Pokémon Center but ate outside. Today's activities had made Misty very satisfied.

"I'm very happy today, thank you, Ash!" In front of Misty's dormitory door, Misty didn't go in directly, but looked at Ash, thanked him, and before Ash could speak, kissed him lightly on the cheek.

...

Then, Misty rushed into her room with a flushed face and closed the door, making Ash stand there in a daze. After a while, he touched his cheek and returned to his dormitory.

"Pika..." Pikachu shrugged helplessly.

"I'm back..." In the dormitory, Brock sat in front of the window, looked at the moonlight outside, noticed Ash had returned, and said something with a lonely expression as he continued to gaze outside.

"What's the matter?" Seeing Brock's listless look, Ash couldn't help asking.

"Ash... do you think... it's true that... no girl would like me?" Brock didn't look back but looked outside sadly, with tears in his squinting eyes.

He felt so pitiful... After parting ways with Ash, he also went to the beach and tried to talk to those good-looking girls, but unfortunately, none of them paid any attention to him.

He didn't know how he spent the whole afternoon. It wasn't until evening that he returned to the dormitory feeling lost, especially when he thought that Ash and Misty were on a date, he felt even more depressed.

"Pika, Pikachu..." Pikachu thought that Brock was really down and immediately ran to him, patting him to express comfort.

"That's right! There will definitely be someone!" But Brock suddenly stood up as if he were on a stimulant, as if encouraged. "I will definitely find a girl who likes me!"

Ash looked at Brock speechlessly. It seemed that Brock was not truly lost but just wanted to be comforted. No matter whether the comforter was human or Pokémon, he would cheer up.

"Go to bed early, starting tomorrow will be two days of hell-like special training!" Ash glanced at Brock, shook his head, and grabbed Pikachu, heading to the bathroom to take a shower.

"Pikachu! Don't go!" Brock reached out to Pikachu as if parting from life and death.

"Pika..." Pikachu, held by Ash, could only show a helpless expression to Brock and disappeared from Brock's sight as the bathroom door closed.

"Pi-ka-chu!" Brock knelt on the ground, clutching his heart, with a look of pain on his face, feeling as if his confidant had been taken away by Ash.
