Chapter 5 - 5: Cell Activation

---

It had been two years since Ash obtained the Pichu. At first, Professor Oak was surprised when he found out that a Pichu was willing to follow Ash. After all, it was rare for a Pokémon to follow someone of their own accord!

In this real world, trainers could only travel by themselves at the age of fifteen. At the age of ten, they had to start learning about Pokémon. After all, it was just like in the anime. If one went on a journey at the age of ten, it would be useless!

In these two years, Ash's system was still the same. He did not gain any attribute points. Ash almost forgot about the existence of the system. Fortunately, the system had its own data capabilities, so Ash did not neglect the use of the system!

"Pichu, one hundred thousand volts!" In the training ground behind Professor Oak's research institute, Ash commanded a Pichu with black and yellow stripes. Ash was wearing a red and white shirt. He had fluffy and soft black short hair. He wore a cap, light black casual pants, and white sneakers!

"Pichu!!!" Upon hearing Ash's command, Pichu shouted. A yellow lightning bolt enveloped Pichu. Then, a thick yellow lightning bolt bombarded the training ground!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

After the dust settled, one could see that the ground of the training ground was a mess. It could be seen that this Pichu's skill level was very high. To be able to use such a powerful electric skill at the Pichu's beginner stage, it was simply a genius!

"Ash's Pichu is very talented. In addition, Ash has worked hard and developed that skill. Among his peers, I think Ash is definitely one of the top!"

At the side of the training ground, Professor Oak looked at Pichu's skill and said in amazement. Ash's talent really made Professor Oak happy. It could be said that at Ash's age, he could develop that kind of skill. It was definitely unprecedented!

"Pichu, stop and take a break!" Seeing Pichu continuously using one hundred thousand volts, Ash said aloud. Training had to be done gradually. Blindly training would only increase the pressure and burden on oneself!

"Pichu!!" When Pichu heard Ash's words, it was very happy and squinted its crescent-shaped eyes. Then, it ran and landed on Ash's shoulder. After two years, Ash roughly guessed that Pichu was most likely the Pikachu before it evolved!

"Professor, let's go back. Mom is probably coming too!" Ash said to Professor Oak as he tidied up his clothes that were covered in dust from training. As for Gary, he would only come to Pallet Town during the holidays!

Usually, he would live in the city. After all, Pallet Town could only be considered a rural area. Originally, Ash also needed to go to the Pokémon Academy to study, but Professor Oak felt that with Ash's current qualifications, there was no need for him to go to that kind of school!

"Okay, luckily you're here when you're training. Otherwise, your grandfather would have to eat instant noodles by himself again!" After hearing Ash's words, Professor Oak said with a smile. Because Professor Oak wholeheartedly devoted himself to research, he didn't know how to cook at all!

Therefore, he only knew how to eat instant noodles all day long. Luckily, Ash's mother would occasionally come here to cook a good meal for Professor Oak. Otherwise, Professor Oak would become an anorexic patient!

After entering the research facility, Ash very familiarly laid down on the sofa at the side, while Pichu played with some of the research facility's Pokémon. After all, with Pichu's current age, it had just been born, so it was naturally very playful!

After closing his eyes to rest for a while, Ash said to the system in his mind, "System, list out Pichu's and my information."

"Ding ~!"

Name: Pichu

Level: Early Advanced

Characteristics: Lightning Rod, Static

Attributes: Electrical

Potential: 100% (Developed 21%)

Skills: Charge, Electric Shock Wave, Tackle, Quick Attack, 100,000 Volts, Cell Activation!

Looking at his own and Pichu's attributes, Ash's face, which rarely showed any expression, revealed a trace of a smile. This was because Ash was very satisfied with his gains over the past two years. There was no need to say much about his own attributes, but Pichu's attribute growth made Ash full of confidence for the future!

After learning the two skills, Hundred Thousand Volts and Quick Attack, in addition to his self-created Cell Activation, the current Pichu could even fight to a draw with a Advanced Intermediate Stage Pokémon if he were to fight seriously. The prerequisite was that the Pokémon's attributes did not have too much of a counter!

Cell Activation was self-created by Ash based on a cartoon called Naruto from his previous life. As the meridians and bones of Pokémon were completely different from those of humans, Ash spent a year teaching Pichu to learn this skill!

Not all Pokémon knew this move. Firstly, it had to be an electric-type Pokémon to learn it. Secondly, only Pichu could use it perfectly. This was because this skill was specially created by Ash based on Pichu's physical condition!

Every Pokémon's body was different. Therefore, the same skill had different ways of using it. For example, 100,000 Volts. Pichu and Raichu were both electric-type Pokémon, but the way they used 100,000 Volts was completely different!

Regarding this point, Ash had discovered it in Professor Oak's past research. Therefore, Ash spent a year creating the Cell Activation that was exclusive to Pichu!

Moreover, Ash had also recorded the training method of Cell Activation in a notebook. Ash planned to record the training of every Pokémon in the future in a notebook. This way, not only could he use it as a memory, but he could also write down his own training experience!

The Cell Activation skill used the electricity stored in the body to stimulate some of the cells in the body's joints. This allowed the stimulated Pokémon to display a speed that exceeded its level. However, there were pros and cons. Although the speed was fast, elemental skills like 100,000 Volts were weakened. After all, a portion of the electricity had to be used to stimulate the cells!

Moreover, Ash had also discovered that some of the Ninjutsu in Naruto could also be used by Pokémon. Although the destructive power was not as shocking as in Naruto, in this world, it was definitely considered a rare and powerful ability!

This also allowed Ash to constantly use his Mind's Eye to sense the Pokémon in Professor Oak's research facility over the past two years. He constantly recorded the structure of their bodies and built a good foundation for future training. This way, when he subdued a Pokémon, he could immediately start learning!

As long as one had good talent, they would be able to learn in a very short period of time. Learning Pichu took a year mainly because Ash was researching and creating at the same time. That was why it took so long!
