Chapter 19 Wild Fighting: A Battle Where Victory Is All That Matters
Because some of the Pokémon recognized this benefactor, Zhu Suihan didn't face any special targeting, but she still noticed some slightly hostile glances.
The villains are still human, not some foreign Pokémon coming to take over their territory.
Zhu Suihan took out the wound spray and sprayed it evenly on the wounds on the leaves of the walking grass.
"It hurts a little, just bear with it."
Zhu Suihan released Chenglong: "Let's find out what's going on."
If there are many people, Zhu Suihan will go back and call for reinforcements, and send Abi to play as the vanguard.
"Waaah."
Chenglong chatted briefly with a few of the leaders, then came to Zhu Suihan's side and began to recount what he had learned.
"Three people, fighting their way through, and their target was an outer cave?"
What kind of petty behavior is this? Do you know that the Pokémon around Azalea Town aren't very strong, so you're acting so arrogantly?
"Three people can handle it."
Zhu Suihan made up his mind and then looked at the Pokémon.
"Guys, I'll take you guys to a fight, are you up for it?"
Zhu Suihan glanced at it and saw that although the average strength might be a bit lacking, the attributes and types were quite complete.
Using underhanded tactics is more than enough.
A fighting spirit ignited in the eyes of all the Pokémon. If they hadn't been ambushed and ganged up on, how could they have lost so badly?
"Then, we need a deceptive pretext."
Zhu Suihan looked at the silent Heracross.
"Would you be willing to impersonate my Pokémon partner?"
"Hey!"
Hercules opened his eyes, looked at his companion, then glanced at Zhu Suihan, and nodded resolutely.
Zhu Suihan patted Chenglong's head: "Then, I'll leave it to you to deliver a fatal blow when the time is right."
“Wuwu!”
I'm very strong!
In the wilderness, two ordinary-looking men with unremarkable builds emerged from the cave entrance, gleefully weighing the minerals in their hands.
"As expected, the boss said there was good stuff here. Coming along the way to make some money was a really good choice."
The miscellaneous fish said with some envy, "When will I be able to have an armored rhinoceros that is so sensitive to minerals, like the boss?"
"Say less, don't forget we came out to get boxes to store minerals."
Minion B said coldly, "My Zubat was seen. I wonder what happened to that little idiot. But the local Joey might not be so sure. Pack your things and leave immediately."
"Wow, this place is really rich in natural resources. I never thought that you could find minerals in just any cave."
"But you guys just happened to be passing by, so it seems you made a slight misjudgment about your destination."
Jia and Yi, the miscellaneous fish, quickly turned around and looked at Zhu Suihan sitting on the rock with some disbelief.
Whether it was a person or a ghost, it didn't even raise their alarm!
"So you're the reinforcements that brat brought? You're really overestimating yourself."
Whoosh!
The ground collapsed, and the two small fry instantly fell into the deep pit. Zhu Suihan also revealed a strange smile.
"Hey, guess why I'm rambling on with you guys."
The gopher is below, combining digging and quicksand hell, giving these two extras a huge boost.
So, according to the villain's usual tactics, now should be...
"Goblin, take care of that despicable guy!"
"Nidorino, kill him!"
"Tsk, actually I've always been skeptical of your aesthetic sense, but then I suddenly realized it doesn't seem to have much to do with aesthetics."
Zhu Suihan stood up, and the Bird Squad behind him was ready to go. The violent wind blew the two villainous Pokémon that had flown out and jumped out back.
However, this is only temporary. In terms of individual strength, Zhu Suihan's side is relatively weak, and the flight squad's output cannot suppress them for too long.
"It's because these Pokémon look fierce, which can give you more confidence and intimidation when dealing with your peers."
With her white hair flying, Zhu Suihan snapped her fingers, and the insect-type and grass-type teams that had been lying in ambush all around her came forward.
With another snap of their fingers, the flying team instantly changed their attack direction. Before the Pokémon on the ground could jump out again, colorful dust filled the air and, with the help of the high-pressure airflow, poured into the trap made by Diglett!
Poison powder, paralyzing powder, hypnotic powder, a triple infusion of powders!
Deadly poison, poison needles, poison darts—all at once!
Interspersed among these are a bunch of ranged moves like the Leaf Blade, which, combined with the Gopher's skills, maximize the damage output.
"Turn-based? If I don't kill you in one combo, I'll admit my damage output isn't high enough."
There was only one Pokémon, or rather, these people never even considered that Zhu Suihan would use such an unethical fighting style.
Let alone taking another ball to fight, they'd be considered impressive if they could even move a single finger.
"Armored Rhinoceros, charge!"
Without turning his head, Zhu Suihan said, "Hercules, charge in with your horns."
"Hey!"
Heracross appeared, its horns clashing unhesitatingly with the armored rhinoceros's head, initiating a wrestling match.
"You scared me! I thought it was Officer Jenny, but it was just a little devil."
Without hesitation, the leader of the supporting characters threw the ball: "Go, Onix! Take care of Heracross first! Rock Slide!"
With a roar, Onix sent massive rocks crashing down on Heracross. At the same time, Onix lunged forward, its tail poised to strike Heracross!
"Hercules, lift up the armored rhinoceros to block the rockfall!"
"Heracro!"
Heracross swallowed the energy cube in his mouth instantly, his condition improved again, and he used his long horn as a pivot to suddenly exert force, lifting the armored rhinoceros into the air and colliding with the rockfall emitted by Onix!
"U-turn to avoid Onix's tail!"
"Hey!"
Heracross spread its wings and moved swiftly, narrowly avoiding the Onix's fierce attack, and flew to Zhu Suihan's side, panting heavily.
If it weren't for the potent medicine from Zhu Suihan, Heracross might not have been able to perform such difficult moves consecutively.
Living in the wilderness near the edge of town, Heracross and his friends are completely different from the Pokémon in high-level stages like Mt. Silver and Mt. Coronet.
There is a gap in strength.
"Hmph, interesting. I thought it was just one brat who almost discovered us, but it turned out there were two."
Onix arrived at the forefront, its eyes fixed on Heracross, while a rhinoceros a body length behind it began to stomp its forelegs like a bull in a fight, ready to charge at any moment.
"Release my men!"
boom!
A huge blue beam of light shot past Zhu Suihan, its terrifying force causing his clothes to flutter wildly.
If it were slightly higher, Zhu Suihan would have become half-bald.
The blue beam of light first struck the Onix, and the violent impact of the water made the Onix cry out in pain. It fell backward and crashed into the Armored Rhinoceros, carving a long furrow behind it.
Zhu Suihan said calmly, "Two Four-times Weak Waters, you're really asking for a beating."
"You sneaky brats, Rhinoceros, Onix, stand up!"
Seeing that things were not going well, the leader of the supporting characters jumped away and used a divine skill to stand up, intending to get his Pokémon up to continue the battle.
But the next second, Heracross had already pounced on him and slammed the main character to the ground.
Zhu Suihan glanced at Chenglong who had come to his side: "Let's fire another water cannon and maximize the damage first."
"Ugh!"
Another blue beam of light struck Onix and Rhinoceros, and only then did Zhu Suihan step forward.
"I'm having good luck today."
Zhu Suihan grinned: "No, I should say I have great luck every day."
The leader of the extras was furious: "A despicable sneak attack!"
"Otherwise what?"
Zhu Suihan kicked the leader of the extras unconscious: "She's a girl, she can't stand blood, she's afraid of violence."
Heracross was taken aback: "Hey?"
Zhu Suihan waved his hand: "It's just to break this guy's defenses, don't take psychological tactics seriously."
Zhu Suihan pried the Poké Ball off the waist of the extra boss and put the heavily injured Onix and Rhydon back into the ball.
"Tsk, it's a pity I don't know that trick, otherwise it would be even safer."
How do you destroy the internal mechanism of a Poké Ball? I vaguely remember that you just need to use a skill to attack some small parts.
Zhu Suihan searched the body of the extra leader, but unfortunately found no badges or documents that could prove his identity.
There's no big R either.
Damn it, the villains can't really not have Team Rocket, can they?
Who's going to give me that missing piece of villainous godfather nutrition?
"Utterly useless."
According to Pokémon hunters, the most valuable items on this guy are Onix and Rhydon, as well as the minerals piled up in the cave.
In other words, you can't take anything away from yourself.
"That's not right, what are minerals afraid of?"
Zhu Suihan punched the leader of the extras on the head again before starting to search through the minerals that the extras A and B had taken out.
I can't tell what they are, but I heard from Chenglong that some of the minerals have some elemental energy on them, so they should be some kind of associated minerals.
"It was still no use."
Even if it's precious, if you need something, just ask Ma Tsz-shih.
If you take it back for your own use, not knowing how to use it is one reason, but if you accidentally cause any negative effects on the dragon, that would be the biggest loss.
"Let's go."
Zhu Suihan took out a wound spray and applied it to Heracross from head to toe, then took out several boxes of energy cubes from the incense burner and handed them to him.
"Here you go. Be careful if you encounter guys like this in the future. You can go directly to Akagibara Town and ask someone to come and help you."
"Hey la."
Zhu Suihan patted Heracross's hard head, and the latter glanced at Zhu Suihan, touched his chest with the long horn on his head, and led everyone who participated in the ambush away from the vicinity of the cave.
"Waaah?"
Should we take them back to town together?
Zhu Suihan shook his head: "They can't get bonuses, what's the point of having them?"
"Just tie them up and wait for Joey or Abby to come looking for them. Judging by the time, we need to pick up Chie from school soon."
Compared to these indistinguishable extras, Zhu Suihan still found the deal with Ma Zhishi and Mr. Steel's promise to teach him the Tree Berry technique more tempting.
The villain?
The Pokémon world has no shortage of these things.
They perfunctorily sprayed some antidote on the extras, found ropes in their equipment and tied them up tightly, and then put Zubat and Nidorino back into their Poké Balls.
"Let's go, Chenglong. Thanks to you this time."
The water cannon was indeed powerful; two shots were enough to give those three villains a good beating.
"Waaah."
Lapras nuzzled Zhu Suihan's cheek before obediently returning to its Poké Ball.
Pokémon Centers
"You're finally back."
Joey breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Zhu Suihan: "If you hadn't come back, I might have had to ask Master Abi to rescue you."
