Ash is now 16 years old, 15 when he started his journey.
————————————————
Fog Badge, so far, this is the fourth Gym Badge Ash got in the Johto Region.
Before they know it, their journey is already halfway over.
Ash has completed the Bond Evolutions with several of his Pokémon's, including Pikachu, and he also managed to catch a Raikou!
After getting his Badge, Ash was not in a hurry to leave Ecruteak City. Misty and Brock also had places they wanted to visit. After all, they had not been to such a big city for a long time, they were all in and out of forests.
The four of them acted separately, and Ash took Molly to the Bell Tower.
"Brother Ash, is this the Bell Tower? It's so beautiful!"
On each floor of the Bell Tower, there are bells hanging at the four corners. These are the bells that summon Suicune and other three divine beasts. In the room at the top of the tower, four Clear Bells hang.
With Ho-Oh gone, these bells will no longer ring.
Ash don't know where the Clear Bell Suicune gave him came from, and he also doesn't know its true intentions.
But he knew that he must reach the top of the Bell Tower to even get a chance to know his answer.
Then, he took out his Clear Bell.
One second. . .
Two seconds. . .
"Ding dong!"
Ash's Clear Bell made a crisp and sweet sound, and then started to burn!
"Brother, look at the fire! There is fire!" Molly exclaimed.
However, despite holding a ball of fire, Ash did not feel any burning heat, just very warm and comfortable.
The flame grew stronger and stronger until it left Ash's palm and turned into a phantom of Ho-Oh.
"Ho-Oh!" Ash couldn't help but murmured.
He still remembered that when his predecessor had just left Pallet Town, he had seen Ho-Oh flying over in the sky.
Ash threw out his Ultra Ball, "Come out, Raikou!"
Raikou has fully recovered from his injuries at the Pokémon Center. Although Nurse Joy was extremely shocked, she always only gave her blessings and did not ask any questions and promised not to tell a soul.
"Roar!"
Raikou came out of the Ultra Ball and roared with excitement when he saw the phantom of Ho-Oh. Even he had not seen Ho-Oh for a long time!
"Is it Entei?" Molly's eyes were full of stars, but she soon discovered that this was not Entei!
"Molly, this is Raikou, but I will definitely catch an Entei in the !" Ash put his hand on Molly's head.
The phantom of Ho-Oh did not last long before it fell again and returned to Ash's hands.
I saw that besides the Clear Bell, something else appeared in Ash's hand!
Rainbow Wing!
Feathers in rainbow-colored colors.
Like Clear Bell, it has the ability to summon Ho-Oh.
Now these two things are in Ash's hands, and he is also on the top of Bell Tower, but Ho-Oh only appears as a phantom…
What does this even mean?
Do you want to give me a souvenir after watching a show?
Ash pursed his lips and put Clear Bell and his 2nd Rainbow Wing into his backpack.
"Raikou, what does your boss mean~"?" Ash looked at Raikou, the cold Thunder Beast, who was now purring like a big cat.
He also let Pikachu and Molly lie on his back.
Hearing Ash's question, Raikou also rolled his eyes and ignored Ash.
Suddenly, both Raikou and Pikachu seemed to notice something, and quickly signaled Ash to pay attention to his backpacks!
There, his Pokémon Egg is releasing light!
When this Pokémon Egg was on Mt. Quena, Ash had this soaking it in the clear spring on the island spring. The clear spring has the effect of restoring Pokémon's physical damage, which is also good for this unborn Pokémon Egg!
After arriving at Ecruteak City, Ash also asked Nurse Joy to do a detailed inspection on it. The result was that the Pokémon Egg was very healthy and will hatch soon.
Now, at the top of the Bell Tower, witnessed by Ho-Ohs phantom fire and Raikou, it is finally hatching!
"Big Brother!"
Holly's eyes widened, fearing that she would miss the most precious scene if she blinked. This was the first time she saw the birth of a newborn Pokémon!
The light on the Pokémon Egg is getting brighter and brighter. This light of life is warm and touching.
"Um?"
Incubation has begun!
The Pokémon in this Egg turned out to be relatively large, so Ash had to quickly put it on the ground.
I saw that it suddenly grew to more than one meter, and the outline of its body had also taken shape.
This Pokémon is very familiar to Ash!
Lapras!
Before the current Ash came here, his predecessor Ash once encountered and caught a young Lapras when he was traveling through the Orange Islands.
At that time, it was separated from its own group, so Ash tamed it and let it carry his group across the islands while looking for her relatives.
During the trip to the Orange Islands, that Lapras made great achievements. Whether it was the surfing competition at his first Gym, the ice boat making at Navel Gym, or the final Winner's Cup competition, its performance was outstanding.
When it finally completed its trip to the Orange Islands, it finally found its group, and Ash released it and she reunited with her family.
Ash loves Pokémon and is willing to respect their opinions and ideas. As long as it's good for them, Ash is willing to do it.
This point has never changed whether it was the past Ash or the current Ash.
But now, a Lapras that belongs exclusively to him is born in front of him.
Ash stepped forward and gently stroked its cold head. This feeling was so missed.
Lapras have a gentle personality and rarely participate in chaotic situations. They are smart and have a very high IQ. They like to carry people swimming and other things on water.
They have gray shells on their backs, which are very hard and durable. There are protruding bumps on the shells, which can be used by riders to hold on and stabilize themselves.
"Litttle guy, welcome to this beautiful world!"
Ash gently pressed his forehead against Lapras's head, as if he felt Ash's love, Lapras sang happily.
Name: Lapras
Attribute: Water, Ice
Ability: Water Absorb
Bond value: 180/180
Skills: Water Gun, Sparkling Aria, Sing
Perhaps because he felt Ash's careful care in the Pokémon Egg, or perhaps because he felt Ash's joy and love after birth, the bond value of Lapras actually directly reached the maximum value limited by the compatibility that it could currently have!
But after all, Lapras is a gentle Pokémon that doesn't like fighting much, and it has just been born. The compatibility with Ssh is only 180, which is already very high.
With the deepening of daily interaction and special training, the degree of compatibility will definitely be greatly improved. When Lapras is old enough to fight, it will be just around the corner to complete his Bond Evolutions!
Ash is confident in this!
The most important thing is that although he is just born and doesn't have many skills to use, this Lapras can actually use the move Sparkling Aria!
This move is the signature move of Primarina, the Water Royal Starter in the far away distant land of Alola. It can only be inherited for Pokémon Lapras by relying on breeding.
In other words, this Lapras is probably from the Alola Region, and one of its parents is a Primarina!
This is not hard to believe!
First of all, the Pokémon Professor from the Alola Region is Professor Oak's cousin, named Samson Oak.
A weird old guy who likes to tell funny jokes about Pokémon.
Secondly, Lapras, which is listed as an endangered protected Pokémon in the Kanto and Johto Region, has increased in number due to over-protection in the Alola Region, and has even been developed as a ride-on Pokémon on the water.
Therefore, there is a high possibility that Professor Oak will get a Lapras Pokémon Egg from the Alola Region for him!
