Girls? I’m Going to Be a Pokémon Master! [150]

There’s only one losing heroine here, and that’s you—Nagasaki Soyo!

Smiling quietly to herself, Anon quickly stripped off her clothes and put on the swimsuit. Although inherently shy and not used to these things, the mere thought of Satoshi’s happy face and Soyo’s jealous expression gave her unstoppable confidence.

“Hehehe~ I bet Satoshi’s mind is filled entirely with thoughts of me now. I’ll completely charm him with this swimsuit~♡”

…

“Looks like Ula’ula Island would be the place to find a Metagross. I heard Dragonite might show up around Poni Island, too…”

In truth, Satoshi was currently absorbed in researching Pokémon habitats on Ula’ula and Poni Island, not giving Anon’s swimsuit much thought.

After all, tomorrow was his date with Sakiko and Uika. He’d first challenge the Island Kahuna with Uika, then head straight to Ula’ula Island with Sakiko—it was shaping up to be a busy day.

He wasn’t expecting much in terms of rare Pokémon, so his priority was to make sure both Uika and Sakiko enjoyed their day.

[Satocchi, speaking of enjoying, Furiko also wants to enjoy some special time with you…]

Stop spouting nonsense—

“Satoshi~♡”

Before he could finish, Anon’s gentle voice drew his attention.

She stepped out shyly, revealing smooth, pale skin and a slender figure. Her complexion gleamed softly under the room’s lights, as delicate and inviting as flawless porcelain.

“How… how do I look?” she asked quietly, timidly approaching him.

The swimsuit clung perfectly to her petite frame, accentuating her delicate curves.

How do you look…?

[Flat! Even a female Machamp outclasses you! You’re definitely no match for Satocchi!]

Shut up!

Saying something like that would definitely get me punched! Even someone as dense as Satoshi knew better.

“You look incredibly cute. It suits you perfectly.”

He expressed his honest thoughts without reservation.

The swimsuit genuinely made Anon look adorable. But that was all it did.

Now, if Tapu Lele suddenly showed up, that would genuinely catch his interest—and he’d instantly grab a Poké Ball for a battle.

“R-really…? I’m glad.” Anon’s cheeks flushed, and she shyly dropped her gaze.

Though she wasn’t revealing too much skin, just having a boy her own age praise her was thrilling enough for a romantic-hearted girl like her.

Without saying much else, Anon nervously sat down on Satoshi’s bed.

Unfortunately, he’d already turned his attention back to tomorrow’s plans, causing jealousy to simmer within her again.

You’ve got me—MYGO’s cutest and strongest idol, Chihaya Anon—right here, and you’re busy staring at that stuff instead?!

No way—I’ve got to knock some sense into this clueless boy!

She decided to hit him with the most straightforward line possible.

Anon’s heart began to pound. She reached out her delicate hand to hold Satoshi’s, palms slightly sweaty from nerves, and bravely took a deep breath.

“I like you, Satoshi.”

A straightforward confession—but the boy completely missed the point.

“Yeah, I like you too, Anon.”

Satoshi’s lips curved up in a sunny smile, his innocent words making her heart race wildly.

“Uhh—!”

How can you say something so direct with a straight face?! You’re way too charming!

Ahh, I’m so embarrassed! But my “like” is different from yours, you dense idiot!

Instantly, Anon’s emotions became a chaotic mess. She was thrilled, but at the same time utterly exasperated by his cluelessness.

She understood Satoshi’s “like” was purely friendship, nothing deeper.

I might really have to kiss him hard just to get through his thick skull… Anon realized just how challenging it was to convey romantic feelings to such a dense guy.

Taking another deep breath to calm her nerves, she found herself oddly excited by the thought.

“Oh, right! I also wanted to show how much I care about you.”

Satoshi suddenly dug through his bag and handed her something.

“This… a TM?” Anon blinked, surprised.

“It’s specifically for…” Satoshi had already begun explaining.

The TMs were Charm and Sunny Day—clearly picked for strategic purposes.

[Sunny Day]: The user intensifies the sun for a short time, powering up Fire-type attacks. The sunlight also lowers the power of Water-type attacks.

[Charm]: The user gazes charmingly at targets to make them less wary, which lowers their Attack stats for a while.

He’d even prepared a battle plan for Anon’s Totem Pokémon trial. Her opponent was Totem Wishiwashi. The plan? Sylveon would use Sunny Day right before the battle.

Some might ask if that was fair. But who’d argue if Sylveon just wanted some sunshine for comfort before battle?

If you had no shame, this strategy was perfectly reasonable!

Probably.

Although untested, Satoshi felt confident it could work. Anon had mentioned Lana, the Trial Captain, had set up Totem Araquanid downstream at Brooklet Hill. After Sunny Day, she could switch in Alcremie to gradually wear it down with Charm, Recover, and Dazzling Gleam. At least, that was the theory—in reality, the difference in strength between Anon’s Pokémon and the Totem would require careful commands.

“Ah…” Anon barely heard the explanation, instead hyper-aware of her pounding heartbeat and Satoshi’s breathing. With eyes shimmering with anticipation and love, she found herself instinctively moving closer until, without thinking, she’d pinned him beneath her.

“Hmm? Anon, is something wrong?”

Anon’s gaze locked directly with his, weaving an invisible thread between them.

Perhaps this was “love”—someone so thoughtful, gentle, and strong. The kind of boy she desperately wanted to claim for herself.

A tingling sensation spread through Anon’s body, and desire shone unmistakably in her eyes.

I want to confess so badly—I want him to know exactly how I feel!

I want him to belong only to me!

At this very moment, Anon seriously, seriously… wanted to give Satoshi a Draining Kiss.

Maybe even something beyond that.

“Satoshi, I lo—”

But just as the words formed on her lips, Anon hesitated.

She realized if she confessed now, Satoshi would surely respond positively. But then, she might lose control, and certain things would happen right here—leading inevitably to Soyo kicking down the door for a girl-to-girl fight.

Grr! Soyo, you’re too troublesome! Next time I’ll stuff you in a sack!

Knowing her confession would only cause chaos, Anon forced herself to hold back.

So she settled on teasing him lightly instead…

Chu~♡

Anon gently pressed her lips against his cheek, just barely missing his mouth. Her fingertips tenderly brushed his skin.

“Thank you. Consider that my humble thanks~”

Before Satoshi could react, Anon quickly pulled away—at the very moment, the door burst open.

“Anon~ where are you~?” Nagasaki Soyo stood at the doorway, wearing a sweet smile that completely failed to reach her eyes.

Then she saw Anon, wearing a swimsuit and licking her lips, along with Satoshi lying on the bed.

Soyo was now completely furious!

You! Is there something wrong with your brain?! I turn away for a moment and you’re already on a bed with my boyfriend?!

“Ah—Soyo, sorry… hehe~♡”

Anon, still sitting on the bed savoring Satoshi’s taste, giggled foolishly as she attempted to calm Soyo—though her smugness was clearly deliberate.

“Are you looking for a beating?” Hearing that laugh, Soyo finally snapped.

[Satocchi!! This woman’s tasting you! Even I haven’t done that yet… sob.]

Hmm~ Maybe she was just really happy? Satoshi didn’t particularly mind. It wasn’t even on the lips—maybe this kind of greeting was normal in Galar?

Anyway, Anon’s trial was mostly set. But he had to properly think about his own Grand Trial tomorrow.

Lying back comfortably, Satoshi checked his phone.

Tomorrow, I’ll finally face an Island Kahuna. Time to challenge the strongest one!

…

Ula’ula Island… the Haina Desert was said to contain the most Psychium Z crystals anywhere.

Inside her room, Togawa Sakiko quietly reviewed her notes, finalizing tomorrow’s plans.

First was the island trial. Then, obtaining the Psychium Z crystal most suitable for her Gardevoir. Lastly, she’d challenge the Grand Trial.

All while being accompanied by the person she loved.

“No way… my motives are way too impure.”

Sakiko blushed, covering her face shyly. Just thinking about being with him filled her with joy—and thoughts of intimate things lovers might do.

Like… kissing!

“Sakiko, what motives are impure?”

Uika tilted her head curiously, puzzled. She’d been thinking about tomorrow’s trip with Satoshi to Poni Island—why was Sakiko suddenly mumbling something strange?

“It’s nothing, Uika. Have you decided where you want to go tomorrow? Melemele Island again, perhaps?”

Sakiko shook her head, refusing to reveal her real plans. Their secret date must never be discovered by Uika—the traitor!

Sakiko’s eyes burned with anger. Uika… did you join my team just to steal the boy I love?

“Sō da yo. Tomorrow I’ll stroll near Melemele Sea, trying my luck at spotting Tapu Koko. You’re headed to Ula’ula Island, right? Those trials are really tough—I’ll cheer you on.”

Uika spoke warmly, but Sakiko felt zero appreciation. In fact, she nearly laughed—out of sheer anger.

You’re lying. Tomorrow you’re going to Poni Island with Satoshi, aren’t you?

Why are you lying to my face?

You tell Satoshi the truth… but not me?

Sakiko clenched her fists bitterly, irritation flaring.

Someone was seriously annoyed!

I’m seriously annoyed!

“You’re really good at pretending, aren’t you?”

Sakiko muttered coldly under her breath, making sure no one else heard.

“No need to worry,” she said aloud, standing up and fixing Uika with a frigid stare as she slipped on her ring.

“The weak Sakiko is gone.”

Tomorrow, I’ll finish Melemele’s Grand Trial—and crush both you and Nagasaki Soyo once and for all!
