32. Ash's Reborn Story

Chapter 147 Curry for Victini

Back at the Night Club, Ash, Lillie, and Yancy are now at the counter as they are going to do another new mission.

Randall: How do you hat-tippin'ly do, partner? Maybe better than some folks up north near Labradorra. Them folks've put in a report about a certain critter hustlin' all through Victory Road. No sign of one them... what's it called... Anon Monies? Yeah, that sounds right. No confirmation of Anon Monies yet, but you never can be too careful. You fixin' to hit it up?

Ash: If it isn't another Anomaly, then it might be another Mythical Pokemon that comes to help like Celebi. We'll do it.

Randall: Good on you, trooper. The reports have all come in from the west end of Victory Road- that is, the one near Labradorra City. Best you start your searchin' on that side, I'd wager.

They decide to go to Victory Road, but just as they enter the place, they find a Mythical Pokemon in front of them.

Yancy: That's a Victini! What is it doing here?

Victini greets Ash before runs off, much to their confusion, so they decide to chase after the Pokemon. After getting to the place where the Category Puzzle is, they find Victini entering a cave while Bennett was behind it.

Bennett: How far can you run... Oh, Ash. You've come to help too?

Ash: I assume you're chasing after Victini?

Bennett: Yeah. Shall we work together to catch this thing? I've been chasing it all around this place for some time already, but cornering it seems nigh impossible... Still, no point in giving up now. How much further could it possibly go? Let's find out.

They rush into the cave after Bennett, only to find another Category Puzzle, and Lillie is the one groaning.

Lillie: Are you kidding me? We have to do the puzzle again?!

Yancy: Sounds like you have been dreaded with this puzzle...

Ash: Believe me...but this time there are some rocks on it, I guess it might have given some easier points...

Bennett: The little thing ran straight through... Jumped over this machine, and here we are. You already got through Victory Road once, so you should already know about these... but this one looks particularly unfriendly. I suppose I'll be your guide to this disaster tonight.
