Given Ash's warning, Pidgeot ultimately gave up... on what it considered the ultimate delicacy. After all, its boss had spoken; not listening would be crossing the line.
Ash then looked at the Revival Herb in the old lady's hand and asked, "Granny... can you grow these on a large scale here? I happen to need Revival herbs to make medicine."
Smack!
The old lady slapped Ash on the head in annoyance and then handed the Revival Herb to him.
"Having a few is good enough. This thing is incredibly troublesome to grow. That silly girl Cassandra only knows how to prepare it, not how to plant it. Sigh, if only you'd learn from me..." Saying this, the old lady gave Ash another look. Seeing this, Ash could only helplessly reply, "I can't help it... I still have a lot of things to do on my end."
"What a pity. Sigh, such great talent..." The old lady shook her head again. Ash explained to Misty and the others, "Granny thinks I have a talent for growing herbs and has always wanted me to grow them with her."
"Ash! Ash, you're here!"
Just as Ash was explaining, a girl suddenly ran over happily and hugged Ash's arm.
Ash smiled and said, "Yeah, just happened to come by to buy some medicine. Has your Parasect been keeping up with plucking its mushrooms?"
"Don't worry! I constantly have Paras pay attention to picking off its mushrooms now. This way, when it evolves, its life won't be in danger."
Regarding the fact that if Paras didn't pick its mushrooms before evolving, Parasect would be sucked dry of its nutrients, Cassandra had kept reminding Paras to pluck the mushrooms off its back on time ever since she found out. And she didn't let those mushrooms go to waste either, turning them all into medicine to help others. Because of this, Cassandra had a very favorable impression of Ash, who had warned her about this, and she fell in love with him during their subsequent interactions.
Now, seeing Ash here, Cassandra's joy was completely written all over her face.
"Long time no see, Cassandra. You look as energetic as ever."
Seeing Cassandra, Lara also smiled and said hello. After all, Ash traveled with Lara the most, so Lara also knew a lot of people. Cassandra was one of them. Seeing Lara, Cassandra also smiled and greeted her, "Long time no see, Lara. Are you traveling with Ash now too?"
"Yeah, it's been a lot of fun along the way."
While Ash and the others were happy, someone else was feeling heartbroken.
"She actually knows that carnivorous brat... It's over!... Waaaaaah!"
Listening to Meowth's crying, James looked at Ash and the group through his binoculars and said, "Oh? It really is the twerp and his friends, and they clearly know each other!"
"It's not just knowing each other. This posture clearly shows the girl has a crush on the twerp. I think you're out of luck this time, Meowth..."
As a woman, Jessie had the most authority to speak on this. She immediately saw that Cassandra liked Ash, and she had also long noticed the rings on the hands of Misty, Suzy, and even Lara.
"What a terrifying carnivorous twerp. But the fact that he doesn't string girls along is pretty good... Much better than those scumbags who just play around."
"Oh? You seem to know a lot about this, Jessie?"
James was immediately intrigued hearing Jessie say this. Jessie continued to observe through the binoculars and said bluntly, "What do you mean 'know a lot'? I've just seen a lot, which is why I made this observation."
James looked at the still-crying Meowth, shrugged, and asked, "Can you tell me about it?"
"Alright... Listen up. This is experience I've gathered as a righteous woman after comforting countless brokenhearted women!"
"I'm listening!"
"Many childhood sweethearts break up because the guy or the girl never dares to throw a straight pitch, so they lose to the 'destined girl who falls from the sky'. But now, the twerp clearly always throws straight pitches... I bet he's already given out those rings..."
"Oh oh oh! You're so amazing, Jessie!"
Hearing Jessie analyze it so logically, James was inexplicably excited, not forgetting to praise her.
"Hmph. You still have a lot to learn. And now comes the most important point... The twerp is obviously the carnivorous type, and that girl was clearly targeted by the twerp, and a single straight pitch was successful."
"So the twerp is that amazing?" James didn't expect this to be the case, but Jessie refuted him, saying, "No, it's not really that the twerp is amazing! He just doesn't drag things out. Compared to those smooth-talkers, the twerp still falls short. But this is much better than those wishy-washy guys. So Meowth..."
Jessie glanced at the still-crying Meowth and said, a bit speechlessly, "Alright, Meowth, stop crying. Actually..."
"I still have a chance?"
Hearing the great boss Jessie say this, Meowth immediately felt full of hope. However, Jessie shook her head and said, "No, I just wanted to tell you that short-term pain is better than long-term pain. Give up. The twerp is definitely hitting it directly this time; you don't have a chance at all."
"Waaaaaaahhhh!!!"
Seeing Meowth crying even more miserably, James didn't know how to comfort him. After all, James's impression of women—aside from Jessie, who was somewhat better—was... sigh, speaking of it brings tears to the eyes. Just thinking about his own headache-inducing fiancée made James want to cry.
