Ash POV –
After the match, me and Jason talked while talking to each other. After giving our Pokémon to Nurse Joy, me and Jason also met Mom, Misty, Brock and his Mother. We talked about our adventures and so much more. And when I told Jason that I have the 4 orange league badges he was surprised and when I showed him that he was surprised along with my friends and mom. While taking, I saw something that I wouldn't forget, a girl with blond hair winning and also reaching Top 16 and I knew who she was she was Cynthia Shirona the strongest champion. I gulped and after dinner, I went and find out why the Future Champion of Sinnoh is here competing in the Kanto League and I found out threw one of her interview and turns out after winning the Sinnoh league, she started competing in the Kanto league according to her interview, and next year she would officially challenge the Kanto League.
When I saw all her battle and other I was a bit scared and when I and Pikachu saw her battle had a small sweet and I also showed Charizard her Starter Garchomp and after that, I had instructed Charizard to start a training with Chansey for at least 2 weeks along with Pikachu. I wanted them extra prepared. Soon, I also got to know about my opponent for Top 16 and it was none other than Ritchie.
Ritchie and I actually met, in a elevator, before we got to know about our Top 16 opponent and soon after finding out my opponent was Ritchie, I and him just nodded not to hold back and wont hold any grudges.
Soon it was time to battle with Ritchie. Soon I was in my waiting room, waiting for my announcer to call me. Then I heard it.
Announcer: Ash Ketchum, please report in your designated spot, your battle starts in 5 minutes.
As I heard that, I drank a glass of water and went to the stage and was ready for my battle.
