With Ash's meticulous arrangements, both Misty and May felt at ease letting their Pokémon follow Ash's lead. The Pokémon, noticing that their trainers had no objections, happily began to relax.
"Strange, I didn't trigger any sign-in rewards when I arrived in Saffron City this time?" Ash mused to himself, but he didn't think too much about it. Soon, he joined everyone in soaking in the hot springs to unwind.
Afterward, he and Brock took care of Charizard, Pikachu, and Grovyle, giving them a good wash with tools.
They all squinted their eyes in delight. Mewtwo was also relaxing in the hot spring, while Pikachu and Charizard chatted with Mewtwo, as they had met before (in the Mewtwo Strikes Back movie).
Pikachu: "I feel like Ash has changed a lot! His training methods are different from before."
Charizard: "Mewtwo, one day I'll challenge you again. I will become stronger!"
Mewtwo: "Sure, I'll be waiting. Just don't lose to others so easily in the meantime."
Ash sensed through his aura that Pikachu, Charizard, and Mewtwo were having this conversation. At the same time, he looked at Mewtwo.

Ash rubbed his eyes. Black potential? This Mewtwo was likely a clone created by Team Rocket after they obtained Mew's eyelash fossil. Mew is truly regarded as the source of all things! The clone Mewtwo had black potential—the highest potential!
After parting ways with Ash and his group, Mewtwo probably wasn't at level 99 back then. Now, it had reached level 99, at the peak of a Level 2 deity, ready to break through to a Level 1 deity at any moment!
Ash remained calm and didn't question Mewtwo. Instead, he began to ponder. Given that Mewtwo's strength is only level 99, he could infer what level the other legendary Pokémon might be.
For example, Ho-Oh, Dialga, and Palkia should be Level 1 deities. Groudon, Kyogre, ordinary Rayquaza, and Deoxys, etc., should be stronger than Ho-Oh and the like, but it was uncertain whether they had broken through to reach the super deity level, which is Level 110.
The Most Powerful Rayquaza must have reached the super deity level, mainly because Rayquaza can Mega Evolve! Aside from that, there's also the unique Arceus and the Ultra Beasts from the Alola region, which have uncertain specific levels.
As for Gigantamax Pokémon, they haven't been revealed yet. Entei, Raikou, Suicune, and the three legendary birds? The strongest of them could potentially surpass a champion in strength.
Exciting! Thrilling! Just thinking about the many legendary Pokémon he would encounter in the future made Ash incredibly excited! ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel⚑fire.net
After spending a night in the luxurious hotel, Ash woke up early the next morning. He took Charizard, Grovyle, and Pikachu to start their morning exercise. He knew he would need a "stronger" body for the future; otherwise, he might struggle to keep up…
As the sun began to rise, after having breakfast, it was another beautiful day.
"Ah! I can sign up today! Tomorrow is the start of the Saffron City Pokémon Contest. Everything is perfectly timed, I can't wait!" May exclaimed happily.
Misty cheered for May. Seeing the unexpectedly good bond between the two, Ash felt relieved, and the group headed towards the Saffron Conference Center. It wasn't far.
Upon arriving at the Saffron Contest Conference Center, the coordinators had already started arriving in droves.
"Wow, there are so many people! Are all these here for the Pokémon Contest? We didn't have such competitions in the Kanto region before. This is really exciting!" Misty thought of the flow of people at her family's Cerulean Gym.
"In that case, let's go in! Although the Pokémon Contest and the Cerulean Gym's Water Ballet are both performances, they are different. Let's go sign up with May first."
"Uh-huh, let's hurry!"
As Ash and the others entered the Saffron City Contest Hall, not far behind them, a feminine-looking young man with a green hat and long purple hair watched May enter, a sinister smile on his face:
"Heh heh, May, I knew you'd come. I'm quite vengeful, so just wait for me!"
