Pokemon: A Burning Heart

[No System, no transmigration, no steamrolling, no harem, no casually catching Pokemon, respect for Legendary Pokemon, classic adventure]

Many years after a legendary Pokémon Master won the Pokémon World Championships, a fifteen-year-old boy named Xiao Huan, born in Huanghua Town in Kanto, begins his own story.

Who says you have to pick a Starter Pokémon when you set out? So what if he likes Growlithe? So what if he lost to a Bug Catcher on his first day out? He already has several badges, so what can he do if he still uses Scyther as his ace?

Xiao Huan plans to compete in the “Crown Tournament,” reorganized by the World Alliance, and battle Trainers from all over the world.

Along the way, he meets all kinds of travelers: a young man haunted by a painful childhood, a lively but rather eccentric cat-loving girl, and a Gym Leader who is both a devoted mother and dedicated to her work.

He learns lessons about dealing with people that can't be taught in school, gains a deeper understanding of Pokemon ecology, saves a Gyarados that has suffered for over a decade, and helps a ghost girl lost between the worlds of yin and yang.

Partings, tears, and awe: Each unforgettable experience teaches the naive Xiao Huan more and helps him grow. Step by step, he matures from a slightly chuunibyou greenhorn fresh out of school into someone far more mature.

Traveling isn't just about fighting. It's about all kinds of stories woven together.

Meanwhile, various malicious schemes gradually come to light. Those behind them are stealing pure energy from everywhere, all to tear open a rift in space and time and elevate Pokemon above humans. In the end, they face judgment from multiple parties at the Crown Tournament.

Come experience countless dreamlike adventures alongside Xiao Huan!
