Ash: A Pokémon Tale

Chapter 15: The Call of Adventure



Ash awoke to the earthy scent of rain-soaked ground, the fresh aroma filling his senses as he unzipped the tent.

The soft glow of dawn cast a gentle light over the damp campsite. He stretched, feeling the refreshing coolness of the air against his skin, then nudged Pikachu gently awake.

"Pika... pika!" Pikachu yawned, rubbing its small eyes as Ash began packing away the tent. Once their gear was stowed, he called back sparrow in Poké Ball as they set off toward Viridian City, their spirits high with the anticipation of what lay ahead.

As they walked, an unmistakable call echoed through the sky. Both Ash and Pikachu paused, turn back as they spotted a Ho-Oh soaring above, its vibrant feathers reflecting the morning sun like shards of rainbow-colored glass.

Seeing this, Arc Pokédex activated, floating out of Ash's pocket with a soft beep.

It is believed that Ho-Oh only reveals itself to those with pure hearts, and its presence is a sign of great things to come.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ash blinked in astonishment. "A Level 95?" he murmured, stunned by the sheer power. From his knowledge of the games, Legendary Pokémon usually ranged from Levels 50 to 70. But this—this was beyond anything he had imagined. The real-world legends held power far greater than he'd anticipated.

His thoughts quickly drifted to another mythical being—Mew, the Pokémon he had encountered several times before. "I wonder what's Mew level ?" he mused aloud.

She hadn't been around for months, he wonder where she could have gone.

Unbeknownst to him, a tiny pink figure hovered unseen in the shadows, watching him with a playful curiosity.

As Ash pondered, a shimmering light caught his eye. A rainbow feather floated down, landing gently in his hand.

He immediately recognized it from I Choose You! movie—a symbol of Ho-Oh's power, but also a sign of the challenges ahead. To make matters worse, he knew a mythical Pokémon will be now following him, trying to corrupt him.

He sighed, shook his head, accepted the feather's significance and began walking again.

Arc Pokédex, can you analyze this feather?" Ash asked, his curiosity piqued.

The Arc Pokédex buzzed for a moment before displaying its findings.

Ash sighed at the sight of the quest. He knew the challenges that lay ahead, but the promise of the rewards made his excitement bubble to the surface. The thought of leveling up his abilities reignited his determination.

"Are there any other new quests available?" Ash asked, glancing at the Arc Pokédex.

The device buzzed again before displaying a new set of information.
