Pokemon: This Ash Is Too Versatile-Chapter 675 - 362: Warrior and Nurturer!_2

It’s okay if you don’t want to say it, just ask and you’ll find out.

While Gary was describing how he encountered a fortuitous event and vividly narrating the appearance of that black hole, Ash quietly closed his eyes and entered the chat group.

...

[Advanced Ash: Hey, guys, is there someone called Green on your side? Became a Champion in two years, the youngest Champion in history.]

[Ash the Aura Guardian: Green? Never heard of him, but why does the name feel strangely familiar? What’s his relationship with Gary?]

Although Green’s name is completely different from Gary’s, seeing this name somehow made Ash the Aura Guardian immediately think of Gary; there must be some connection between them.

[Advanced Ash: So, it’s like this...]

Ash shared Gary’s experiences and improvements during this period in the group. Such core secrets, Ash wouldn’t casually share if it were someone else, but since the subject is himself, it doesn’t matter.

Since Gary was willing to tell him about it, telling the parallel world version of himself could be considered an implicit approval, right?

[Ash the Aura Guardian: I see, there’s a Gary in a parallel time-space called Green? But it should not be on my side, here we only have Gary.]

[Champion Ash: It’s from my side.]

[Advanced Ash: Huh? Is it from the Champion’s side? Are you saying the Gary in your world became Champion faster than you? No way!]

The group is filled with big shots, but if we talk about genuinely recognized top players, there are only two: one is Legendary Beast Ash, who holds many divine beings, has challenged Arceus, and probably has a complete team of Divine Domain-level Pokemon.

The other is Champion Ash.

If Legendary Beast Ash became the strongest in the group due to the Legendary Beasts, then Champion Ash achieved one of the strongest positions purely on his own merits, having an entire team of Divine Domain-level Pokemon through hard work!

In terms of talent, Champion Ash is also top-tier in the chat group.

Yet even with the most superior talent, Champion Ash is being overshadowed by Gary in his world?

[Champion Ash: Uh, Gary indeed became Champion faster than me, but he stayed as Champion for only about an hour.]

[Advanced Ash: ?]

[Champion Ash: Because as soon as he became Champion, I challenged the Elite Four, defeated them all, and eventually faced him. Then, I won.]

666, there’s still a master!

No wonder Gary was reluctant to reveal his situation in another world; it turns out in Champion Ash’s world, Gary was that embarrassing?

Being Champion for an hour isn’t too bad, but if the Elite Four didn’t need time to recover their Pokemon, Gary might not even have been Champion for an entire hour!

[Champion Ash: In my world, Gary has two names: his original name and another called Green.]

[Advanced Ash: Two names? Why does he have two names? Did Gary’s parents think the name Gary wasn’t good, so they gave him a new name when he grew up?]

[Champion Ash: Haha, that’s not it; in our world, Gary has had his fair share of experiences, and I was no exception.]

[Champion Ash: Newbie, you must’ve felt it after getting the chat group, right? The enhancement it brings you, with such a cheat-like assistance, even you, will need about a year to reach Champion level. So why did both of us in my world become Champions in just two years?]

Champion Ash’s words made Ash fall into deep thought; he’s right. With the chat group’s assistance, winning prizes gave him many good things, and in the real world, the support of various Legendary Beasts, plus teachings from countless versions of himself from other parallel worlds, it still took him over seven months to barely have three Elite-level Pokemon.

Among them, Pikachu had only recently returned to Elite level.

Then how did Champion Ash manage to become a Champion Trainer in just two years?

[Champion Ash: Actually, when I first started my journey, a memory suddenly appeared in my mind—a way of battling Pokemon, nurturing methods, battle experiences... All kinds of things appeared in my mind as if they belonged to me.]

[Champion Ash: Besides that memory, I discovered I have a special ability. When battling with Pokemon, the more my Pokemon are in adversity, the faster their improvement is, and the quicker they grow. This ability was explained in the memory I received, its name is — Warrior.]

Warrior... Able to rely on battles for rapid enhancement; that name fits well, and it’s the reason Champion Ash managed to become Champion in just two years.

However, the situation Champion Ash described is quite similar to Gary’s, isn’t it? Both received a portion of memory, then made rapid progress relying on that memory. Though it can’t compare to the chat group in power, it’s definitely a rare treasure for any Trainer.

[Advanced Ash: So Champion, did you receive memories from a parallel world version of yourself and become Champion in two years, then gain the chat group?]

[Champion Ash: Kind of, but something differs from what you said. What I received wasn’t from a parallel version of myself, but from another person, that person is called... Red. Though his appearance and mannerisms resemble mine, he isn’t me, perhaps he’s a similar existence in another world.]

[Champion Ash: It’s the same for Gary in our world; he had the same experience as me, and the memory he received was from someone named Green, which is why he has two names. But strictly speaking, Green should only be considered a nickname, really.]

Now it makes sense. The two names Gary has in Champion Ash’s world came from this situation, and both Champion Ash and Gary had the same encounter, looking at the names Red and Green, they might have a rival relationship much like Ash and Gary.

And according to Champion Ash, Red and Green, although resembling them, aren’t parallel world counterparts, so the memories Gary received either belong to Green or to a parallel world’s Gary who gained Green’s memory?

It’s probably the latter; judging by Gary’s unpleasant expression, in the memories he received, he likely became the youngest Champion only to be swiftly defeated by Champion Ash.

He might be the youngest Champion, but add one more title—Fastest Champion!

[Advanced Ash: Got it, Champion, I’ll head out now.]

[Champion Ash: By the way, since Gary received that memory, he should also have gained Green’s ability, which is called ’Cultivator.’]

[Champion Ash: This ability is focused on nurturing, and when conducting identical nurturing training, it can increase nurturing speed by at least five times. It’s a power comparable to Warrior and allows for rapid cultivation of multiple powerful Pokemon teams.]

[Champion Ash: However, it isn’t without its downsides. Although cultivating speed is faster than Warrior, its upper limit is somewhat lower than Warrior’s, which is why Gary became Champion faster than me, but I am stronger.]

[Champion Ash: But you’re different, newbie. You don’t have the talent of Warrior, and although you have the chat group’s help and occasional prize assistance, in the upcoming Silver Conference, you’ll need to be extra cautious of Gary. By then, he will have definitely grown into your rival.]

[Advanced Ash: Hey! If that’s the case, that’s perfect! I’m eagerly looking forward to it!]

Isn’t this just right? Previously he thought Gary didn’t give enough pressure and intensity, but now this full-pressure confrontation is precisely what he’s aiming for!
