Chereads / Pokémon: Ash's New Journey / Chapter 2 - Sign-In Rewards and System Starter Pack!

Chapter 2 - Sign-In Rewards and System Starter Pack!

Sign-In Rewards!

Since the sign-in took place in Slateport City, the host of the Hoenn League, the rewards were incredibly generous!

200,000 Poke Coins!

System Storage Space (1 cubic meter) - Can temporarily store Pokémon currently in Poké Balls, as well as other non-living items.

All Pokémon gain 5 levels!

Physical fitness doubled! (Includes but is not limited to stamina, aura, luck, strength, etc.)

Aura Power! (Unlock the ability to use Aura, which includes but is not limited to conveying emotions, listening to Pokémon voices, and sensing the presence of other life forms nearby.)

Eye of Insight (also known as Auro Vision)! (Allows viewing detailed information about Pokémon, including their level, learned moves, and more.)

Ash felt that, deep down, with just a thought, he could instantly access a special space—this was his system storage. Although it was only one cubic meter for now, it was enough to resolve many travel-related issues. Especially considering the typical limit of carrying six Pokémon at a time, having this system space made everything easier.

200,000 Poke Coins!

This was still with them being quite frugal! Therefore, 200,000 Poke Coins would cover all their needs during their travels, including food, lodging, and entertainment for relaxation after training!

All Pokémon gain 5 levels!

This definitely provided a significant overall boost to Ash's current Pokémon, especially his top-tier fighters—Charizard, Snorlax, and Pikachu! (When Pikachu isn't goofing around, he's incredibly strong! Grovyle hasn't evolved into Sceptile yet, so he doesn't count as top-tier… yet!)

As for the other Pokémon, their improvements weren't as noticeable. With physical fitness doubled, Ash felt an increase in all his abilities. Of course, a complete transformation to double would require a period of gradual change.

However, the Aura Power was something he possessed right away! Ash remembered the Aura Guardian, Lucario, from his past. Now, he too had this power!

The Eye of Insight, as the name implies, could reveal various information about Pokémon.

"Pika Pika!"

Pikachu suddenly perked up its cute little ears! It then started talking loudly to Ash.

"Pika Pika, Pikachu!"

Worried that Ash might not understand, it nearly danced in excitement.

Ash activated his Aura Power and instantly understood what Pikachu meant. It seemed to say that, for some reason, it felt its power had increased significantly, stronger than before.

"I see, Pikachu! I get it; it must be because of our travels in the Hoenn region and the battles at the Hoenn League that have boosted your battle experience a lot."

Ash gently placed his hand on Pikachu's cheek, while Max, May, and Brock looked on enviously.

"Ash and Pikachu have such a great bond! He understood what Pikachu was saying so quickly."

"Yeah, I want to have a relationship like that with my Pokémon in the future too!"

May and Max praised, while Ash activated the Eye of Insight to check on his Pikachu.

[Pokémon]: Pikachu

[Category]: Mouse Pokémon

[Type]: Electric

[Ability]: Static

[Potential]: Purple

[Level]: 55

[Moves]: Thunder Shock, Quick Attack, Thunderbolt, Agility, Volt Tackle, Thunder, etc.

"Purple potential, just as I expected, Pikachu."

Ash looked at his Pikachu with pride; it truly was a top-tier Pokémon. The system categorized Pokémon potential from low to high as white, green, red, blue, purple, gold, and black. While potential does not determine everything, it influences how quickly a Pokémon can learn skills and break through levels!

Pokémon with the potential to reach the top tier usually have good potential. Most gym trainers have Pokémon with at least red potential. Some exceptionally strong Pokémon might even have blue potential.

The sign-in rewards were quite substantial, truly befitting a place that hosted the Hoenn League. Meanwhile, Ash also reviewed the sign-in system's instructions. To trigger a sign-in and receive rewards, the location had to be closely related to Pokémon!

For instance, the Hoenn League, the site of the Slateport Conference, and Slateport City.

The ship was still heading toward Pallet Town, and Ash had another gift pack he hadn't opened yet.

"Open the system gift pack!"

"Ding! Opening system gift pack..."

"Ding! [Host Safety] gift pack has been opened. This is a real Pokémon world; it's not as calm as it appears. [Host Safety] has been activated. Please choose your favorite Pokémon from those you have met as your guardian (excluding those with special statuses)."
