Chapter 21: 21. Quilava
Ash was very happy.
After selecting all the disciples in Muramasa's dojo, including Muramasa, not only did Heracross and Bayleef's bonding value increase significantly, he also has 3,000 exchange points in total.
He can also redeem another special ability!
Psychic, Viridian Force, and Dragon Control. . . .
Among them, Psychic has also branched out into several branches, such as, Future Sight, Hypnosis, Levitation, Mind Control, Teleport, etc.
In Saffron City in the Kanto Region, the previous Ash met a Psychic user, her name was Sabrina, the Gym Leader of the Saffron Gym.
She seems to possess various Psychic abilities, and her strength is very terrifying.
There are even more branches of Viridian Force, including the power of healing, the powering up, the power of evolution, the power of hatching, and a series of abilities closely related to Pokémon.
Of course, Ash can also choose to further strengthen his power over Aura that he has currently mastered, saving him the trouble of training. So he can choose this, this will additionally give him new ways to use his power.
Of course you need to use the money, just leave some for Snorlax to buy system food.
After thinking about it, Ash found that his Aura had made great progress since the last time he used Bond Evolution with Charizard, and it was still enough for him now.
It's still worthwhile to exchange for a new ability and enrich your own means and to get new abilities.
So, after careful screening, Ash made a decision.
I used my hard-earned exchange points to exchange for a Psychic!
'This feels so different!'
To put it simply, the power of the Auar strengthens the melee combat ability and perception ability, allowing him to keeps up and beat Charizard.
And Psychic gave him countless ethereal hands to enhance his combat and support abilities in all aspects.
"Pikachu, don't panic!" After using his minor Confusion, Ash smiled softly, and saw Pikachu slowly floating.
"Pika?"
After hearing Ash words, Pikachu became happy after being flustered for a moment.
Brock and Misty were not really surprised to see Ash showing off another ability. They knew he was very different from everyone and even his past self.
"Ash, you are almost a human-shaped Pokémon!" Brock could only shake his head and smile bitterly. After coming to the Johto Region, Ash changes were really getting bigger and bigger.
Only Misty was worried, "Ash, stop being so pretentious and put Pikachu down quickly!"
Hearing this, Ash smiled and said, "Don't worry, Misty, after awakening my Psychic, my mental power will be much stronger than before, and I won't faint easily from now on!"
This is really an unexpected surprise that came with this power.
"Don't faint in the future!" Ash almost fell into coma twice, but Misty was worried.
"Chu chu!"
Pikachu, who was suspended in the air, seemed to have discovered something, pointed over there and screamed.
"Come back, Pikachu!" Ash pulled Pikachu back, and the three of them hurried over. After running a few steps, he came under a rock wall.
This rock wall is full of caves, which must be connected in all directions.
"Quilava, give up resistance, I want to catch you!" As he got closer, he heard an angry voice.
A boy who was a few years older than Ash, armed with a Sandslash, forced a Quilava out of the cave.
Sandslash is of the Ground type. It has type advantage over the Fire Type of Quilava, and it loses the geographical advantage because of the cave. Obviously, the Quilava is in a very dangerous situation.
This Quilava is the evolved form of Cyndaquil, one of the three Johto Region royal starter.
Compared with the timid and gentle Cyndaquil, the evolved Quilava is much braver and stronger. As for the final evolved Typhlosion, its character can be known just from its name, a very pyromaniac nature like a certain Dragon Slayer.
The evolution of Pokémon is so mysterious. After evolution, even the character will change accordingly to the people around it.
Facing Sandslash, who was in a disadvantageous due to his type, Quilava was indeed very brave and did not back out.
"Sandslash, use Slash!"
Sandslash's claws are very long, which is perfect for Slash.
Sure enough, Sandslash's Slash was very powerful. After Quilava dodged, the Slash hit a nearby tree, and the tree as thick as a person's waist was cut off neatly!
"Wow, that Sandslash is so powerful!"
Brock, who was watching the battle from the side, said sincerely in admiration.
At this time, the Trainer noticed Ash and others who were watching the battle, "Hey, over there, I've been looking for this Quilava for a week, and I finally forced it out. Leave quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!" He talks like a Young Master.
"This guy really doesn't know any good manners!" Misty became unhappy after hearing this.
"That Quilava is not something he can conquer! He is not a opponent of it at all!"
As if to confirm Ash's judgment, the Quilava seemed to be tired of playing, and turned into a ball to easily distance itself from Sandslash, and then blazing flames appeared above its head and behind its back.
A Flamethrower swallowed Sandslash completely.
"Damn it!" The Trainer saw that Sandslash was defeated by Quilava, who was weak to Sandslash's type. After taking it back, he threw two more Poké Balls.
Two Pokémon emerged from it, a giant Golem and a Tentacruel.
No matter which one it is, it can restrain the Fire typing that Quilava has.
He just said that he has been chasing this Quilava for a week. He has obviously made all kinds of preparations, and all the Pokémon on him are restraining Quilava.
"Two against one, how unfair!" Misty was filled with indignation. What he did was indeed a lillts excessive. At least try to make it fair.
To be fair he would probably do the same if he was in this kind of situation.
Although there are no clearly written rules for the a wild Pokémon capture battle, regularly, Trainers still conduct it in a one-on-one battle.
If one Pokémon is defeated and the wild Pokémon you want to capture is still willing to continue fighting and not escape, then send the next one to do a wheel battle.
The so-called battle of conquest is actually a process of recognition. A Pokémon is willing to be conquered by you only if it recognizes you as its Trainer.
And in this form, even if Quilava is finally conquered by him, it will never be obedient.
"Since he's two against one, we can help!" Ash smiled confidently, already holding a Poké Ball in his hand, "Such a good Pokémon deserves to be seen, right?"
The one who will catch this Pokémon is him!
"Pikachu, you're up! Iron Tail!"
"Pika pika!"
Pikachu responded, jumped off Ash's shoulder, his tail lit up with metallic luster, and slashed at the Golem!
"Golem, get out of the way!"
boom!
Pikachu's Iron Tail became more and more powerful. The tail fell to the ground and made a big hole in the ground!
"You despicable little minion!" the guy started to rage at him.
"As a Trainer, of course you have to catch the Pokémon you like when you meet it!" Ash couldn't believe his luck, plus he didn't take this person seriously at all. "If I catch Quilava today, can you just stay away?"
If this person's temper was not so hotheaded, Ash would really wait until he failed to subdue him before taking action.
But thinking about it, even if he takes action after failing to catch it, he will be targeted by him, so it is better to take action directly!
"Pikachu, Thunderbolt, attack Tentacruel!"
Heracross: 145/250
Bayleef: 165/215
