Pokémon: I just became a Gym Leader, and Cynthia proposed to me.

Chapter 680 The Half-baked Prophet

Li Shuwen smiled and said, "The way you just shifted the topic to Pachira was a bit too abrupt."

"You should share the same hatred and come over to show that you also dislike Pachira and think she should be taught a lesson."

"It would be best if you treated us to a meal first, under the guise of asking for advice on Pokémon breeding and learning about the local customs and culture of the Sinnoh region before you came."

"After we've finished talking, you shift the topic to Pachira."

A look of realization flashed in Violet's eyes. "So that's how it can be done!"

"I do know a restaurant; how about I treat you to lunch?"

Cynthia stepped forward, grabbed Violet's head, and said with a smile, "Little sister, if you can tell me why you hate Pachira..."

"Based on the reasons you gave, I might consider whether I should help you deal with Pachira."

I was just kidding. If you don't give me a reason, Cynthia won't let Pachira off the hook.

After thinking for a moment, Violet told Cynthia and Li Shuwen about Pansy and Pachira's competition for the title of News Queen.

Pansy, Li Shuwen still had some impression of this reporter.

Ash encountered Pansy, who was being interviewed, in the Unova region.

Ash went to the Kalos region, and it seems he was still with Violet.

I wonder if Pansy discovered Ash's ability to trigger major events through her keen news sense.

They deliberately brought Ash back to the Kalos region so that Ash could wipe out Team Flare and Pachira, who was connected to Team Flare, all at once!

Cynthia frowned. "If Pachira were in the Sinnoh region, I would definitely kick her out of the Sinnoh Elite Four."

Violet spread her hands. "There's nothing we can do. Pakira is a native of Carlos and an indispensable part of the Four Heavenly Kings of Carlos."

Cynthia smiled slightly, "Since you're treating me to dinner today, I'll definitely help you get revenge."

"It's just that when Pachira lost to me, the effect wasn't as good as when she lost to Shuwen."

After all, Cynthia is the champion, while Pachira is just one of the four kings.

It's normal for the Four Heavenly Kings to lose to the champion.

Violet clenched her fist. "It's alright, beating her up is enough to let me vent my anger!"

"Let's go, I'll treat you two to dinner."

Upon arriving at a luxuriously decorated restaurant, Violet began to introduce it:

"Even Shimi, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, came here specifically to learn cooking skills."

"However, the chef that Jimmy apprenticed to no longer cooks himself, but he is still developing cutting-edge cuisine."

"If you're lucky, you can get complimentary cutting-edge cuisine at this restaurant."

"If you can offer the right advice, not only will the meal be free, but you can also have that master chef personally prepare the dishes."

Unfortunately, there are no cutting-edge dishes to serve today.

Not long after entering, Li Shuwen noticed a sorceress in the corner emanating strange supernatural energy.

Yes, it was a prophecy... and it seems to have come true.

She predicted that Ash and Greninja would reach the pinnacle of Kalos together.

Then, Ash and Greninja were hung on the Prism Tower, the highest tower in the Kalos region.

In a sense, Gojiva's prophecy was not entirely inaccurate.

After ordering, Violet sighed, "Looks like we're not very lucky; we don't have any cutting-edge dishes."

Ge Jihua walked over herself and solemnly said to Li Shuwen, "Mr. Li Shuwen, I just made a prophecy."

"The Carlos region is facing a crisis, and we need your help to resolve it."

Cynthia frowned slightly. "Shouldn't the crisis in the Carlos region be left to the Carlos Elite Four to resolve?"

"If they can't solve it, aren't there still Queen Carlos and Caroline?"

Ge Jihua sighed, "We, as champions, appreciate her identity as an actress more than her title."

Ge Jihua didn't explicitly say that winning the championship was more like a tactic used by Karuno to increase her fame and make it easier for her to become a household name as a female celebrity.

Li Shuwen waved his hand, "It's alright. Why don't you, Prophet Gejihua, tell me what the crisis the Carlos region is about to face?"

"I also want to find out if the relics can really help."

If it were a normal crisis, then Li Shuwen could indeed help.

But if the risk is too great, then Li Shuwen can only tell the Carlos people to fend for themselves.

The legendary Pokémon of the Kalos region are all quite powerful.

But there's almost no need to worry; they'll cause a catastrophe that destroys the entire world, and the only ones who will suffer are the Carlos people.

A faint blue light shone in Geji's eyes. "I only saw that the crisis was related to Zygarde, but I don't know the specifics."

"At the same time, Mr. Li Shuwen is able to gain some benefits from this crisis."

Li Shuwen raised an eyebrow. "Cynthia, Zygarde is also a Ground/Dragon type. Going to see it will be beneficial for your Garchomp."

Cynthia nodded decisively, "Okay."

"Where can we find Zigeld, Prophet Goggia?"

Ge Jihua shook her head. "I don't know. Fate will guide everything."

Li Shuwen asked curiously, "Prophet Ge Jihua, can other superpowered individuals learn your ability to foresee the future?"

Ge Jihua shook her head. "I don't know. This is a talent passed down from my ancestors, and I don't need to cultivate it."

"However, I think the ability to foresee the future is probably not so easy to improve through cultivation."

No wonder Ge Jihua was only a half-baked expert; she wasn't a professional prophet at all.

Li Shuwen even suspected that Ge Jihua's ability to foresee the future was not as good as Nazi's.

In the episode where Ash goes to Saffron City, it's clear that Sabrina already knows Ash's arrival will bring about changes for her.

When Ash arrived outside the city, Sabrina said, "Finally, you've arrived."

Then the doll turned into a person and led Ash and his friends into the city.

Naz's predictions of the future were significantly more accurate than Gejihua's.

Li Shuwen said calmly, "Prophet, based on my understanding, the ability to foresee the future can actually be improved through cultivation."

Ge Jihua was extremely confident: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Li Shuwen took out his phone and called Nazi, who was far away in the Kanto region.

"Miss Naza, I..."

Before Li Shuwen could finish speaking, Nazi interrupted, "I understand. I'll show this half-baked prophet what true foresight is."

"Let her pick something randomly."

Geji Hua did not believe that anyone could make a prophecy about the Carlos region from the Kanto region.

He immediately chose a Carlos dish from the table.

Beef stewed in red wine.

Naza was straightforward. "She chose a dish called beef stew in red wine. If that's correct, please repeat it."

Li Shuwen was also somewhat surprised. "That's right, she chose a dish called beef stew in red wine."

Geji Hua exclaimed in surprise, "Impossible! Even the most powerful prophet couldn't possibly make a prophecy across half a planet!"

"That's right," Naz said matter-of-factly. "So what I foresaw was my own future a minute from now."

"I heard Mr. Shuwen repeat the answer that time!"

"Can you predict the future like that?"

Ge Jihua remained silent; even something as seemingly simple as predicting the future was beyond her capabilities.
