I, Xiao Mao, want to become a Pokémon Master!

Page 169

“Abandoned Monkey, vent your anger,” said Xiao Mao.

"Gurgle!!"

The Abandoned Monkey's rage reached its peak, and it unleashed a furious punch. A tremendous force erupted from the Abandoned Monkey's fist, deflecting the opponent's palm. The punch landed on the opponent's body, sending him flying ten meters away.

The giant muscle clutched its stomach, which had been struck by the Furious Punch, its eyes filled with horror, and sweat beaded on its forehead, indicating that the punch had caused considerable damage to it.

After being beaten by Machamp several times, Abandoned Monkey's anger has reached its peak. The power of its Wrathful Punch has reached the maximum of 350, and with the type bonus, the power is 525. Even if Machamp is a Pokémon of the Elite Four level, it cannot stop Abandoned Monkey now.

The Abandoned Monkey charged toward the Mighty One, its fist poised to strike, its furious energy gathering at the tip of its fist.

"Strength, use Burst Punch to block it!" Ah Si hurriedly ordered. The power of the Fist of Wrath was too terrifying; Strength had to use a high-power move to withstand it.

"Awesome!!"

Machamp used all four of its fists to attack Abandoned Monkey at the same time with Burst Punch. Abandoned Monkey saw this and did not attack, letting Machamp's Burst Punch hit its body. Machamp's four fists passed right through Abandoned Monkey's body.

The Abandoned Monkey grinned wickedly, gathered its energy, and unleashed a furious punch that slammed into the monstrous strength.

Bang! !

The air exploded; the Abandoned Monkey's punch had the effect of an air cannon, blasting the Mighty Machamp away.

boom! ! !

The monstrous strength staggered backward, crashing violently into the wall, its body sinking into it, and it lost consciousness.

"Hiss~! Master's monstrous strength has actually been defeated..."

"Terrifying, has Junior Brother already reached this level of strength?"

The surrounding apprentices gasped in astonishment; they couldn't believe that Ah Si's superhuman strength had been defeated. It was unbelievable.

250: Silver Rock Island

"Master, you're too kind." After winning, Shigeru said modestly, "If it weren't for the Abandoned Monkey's type advantage, I would have lost to Machamp."

The Abandoned Monkey won entirely because of its own attribute advantage and the special nature of the Fist of Fury skill; otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to defeat Ah Si's monstrous strength so easily.

"I really underestimated you. You won this dojo match." Ah Si wasn't disappointed at all. As a martial arts master, his mind had long since reached a state of perfect tranquility.

After the battle, Ah Si also handed the ~Strike Badge to Xiao Mao.

[Ding! Mission complete, reward sent to your inventory.]

The skills awarded this time aren't very good. Aura Sphere can be taught, but not many Pokémon can learn it. Of all the Pokémon that Gary has, only Blastoise can learn Aura Sphere.

After receiving the badge, Shigeru rushed to the Pokémon Center to treat his two Pokémon.

I've collected 6 badges from the Johto region. I still have the Ice Badge and the Rising Dragon Badge left, and the gym leaders of those two gyms are quite strong.

The Gym Leader of Kaji City, Luffy, is a trainer specializing in Ice-type Pokémon. He is extremely strong, and in the special episode, he even became a super boss, capturing Ho-Oh and Lugia twice on his own. His ultimate goal was to capture Celebi so that Celebi could take him back to the past and save his beloved Lapras.

However, in the anime, Pygmy's strength is not that terrifying, and his own experience is quite peculiar. When he was young, he lost to a trainer and was burned by Magmar. So, his Pokémon, Mamoswine, went out to find herbs to treat the burns, but was frozen in a cave. It wasn't until Ash went to Kaji Town that Mamoswine was rescued, which also resolved Pygmy's inner conflict.

Tsubaki, the gym leader of the Inkstone Gym, is Lance's cousin and a member of the Dragon Clan. She uses Dragon-type Pokémon and the gym is the most powerful in the Johto region, before Tsubaki's grandfather passed away.

After Tsubaki inherits the position of gym leader, the title of "strongest gym" will have to be put in quotation marks.

"Should we get involved in the Whirlpool Islands affair?" Shigeru looked towards the sea, hesitating whether or not to intervene in the Whirlpool Islands matter.

According to Ash's travel experience, when they were challenging the Lilycove Gym, Lighthouse fell ill, so they helped Ami go to Celadon City to get medicine. On their way back, they encountered a Lugia mother and son.

Although Lugia is the god of the sea, on par with Ho-Oh, there is not just one Lugia in the world. Lugia exists in populations and can reproduce.

Shigeru wasn't particularly interested in legendary Pokémon, since he'd gotten tired of catching them all in the game, but catching the three legendary birds triggered a system quest.

If you capture Lugia, you can definitely trigger the system's quest.

Referring to the quest for capturing the three legendary birds, the reward is a golden crown for capturing just one. If you capture Lugia, you should at least be rewarded with a God's Crown.

Besides, there are many ways to capture Lugia. Once captured, you can simply release it back into the wild, as long as the system issues a quest.

"Let's give it a try." Xiao Mao decided to give it a shot, since triggering the system task would likely result in a reward, and there was no reason not to get involved.

Having decided where to go next, and waiting for Nurse Joy to heal his Pokémon, Gary returned to the Azure Gym and asked Master Si to teach his Pokémon martial arts.

“That’s no problem,” Ah Si asked, “But… are you sure you don’t want to stay?”

Teaching Shigeru's Pokémon fighting techniques is no problem, after all, many trainers have come to ask Shigeru to teach their Pokémon.

As Xiao Mao is A Si's apprentice, A Si naturally wouldn't refuse this request. However, during normal teaching sessions, trainers usually stay in the gym to train with their Pokémon, which definitely deepens the bond between the Pokémon and the trainer.

"I still need to collect badges. I'll come over once I've collected them all. In the meantime, I'll have to trouble Master and Mistress to look after me," Xiao Mao said.

Seeing that Xiao Mao said that, A Si had no objection and continued to ask, "Besides the Forsaken Monkey, what are the other two spirits?"

"Come out, all of you." Gary took out three Poké Balls, opened them, and released Forsaken, Machamp, and Heracross.

"Wow...Mighty...Heracross!" Ah Si was also surprised when he saw the other two Pokémon that Xiao Mao released.

I thought that Xiao Shi's only Fighting-type Pokémon was Abandoned, but I didn't expect him to have two more, and these two Fighting-type Pokémon are not weak at all.

· ·Requesting flowers·· ·······

Xiao Mao originally planned to entrust Machamp and Heracross to A Si for help in teaching, but then he thought that Abomination is also a Fighting-type Pokémon, so it would be good for them to learn more from A Si.

"The three of you will be studying with your master for two months. You must listen to your master carefully. I will come to pick you up after two months," Xiao Mao said.

"Awesome!"

"Heracro!"

"Gurgle!!"

The three Pokémon nodded. Gary had told them about this before, so they were prepared and it didn't feel abrupt. They also wanted to improve their fighting skills here.

...... .... ...

"Your three Pokémon are all quite good. I'll train them well, and in two months, you'll see a completely different side of them." Seeing how motivated the three Pokémon were, Ah Si was also filled with enthusiasm.

"Then I'll leave everything to you, Master."

Xiao Mao trusted A Si's teaching abilities and was very comfortable entrusting the Pokémon to A Si.

After paying the fee, Xiao Mao set off for the vicinity of the Whirlpool Islands the next day.

Since Ash and his friends met Lugia on Silver Rock Island, Gary plans to wait for them there.

...!

It took Xiao Mao five days to finally arrive at Silver Rock Island.

The city on Silver Rock Island is called Kasador City, and it has many silver feather-shaped goods. Because Lugia lives in the Whirlpool Island region, the cities on the surrounding islands all have legends about mysterious silver spirits, and Silver Rock Island is no exception.

Gary settled into the Pokémon Center in the city and spent the rest of his time wandering around the city, occasionally venturing into the wild.

Days passed, and Xiao Shige patrolled the suburbs every day. During this time, Xiao Shige also found Shuichi's house.

As for why they needed to find Shuichi, it was naturally because in the original story, Shuichi was the first to come into contact with Lugia. To avoid missing any plot developments, they had to stick close to him. Gary didn't follow along himself, but instead had Gengar secretly lurking around Shintaro's side.

As expected, Shuichi had already started contacting Lugia by this time, and they often secretly played together.

251: Lugia has been arrested! Action!

"He's really lucky to have formed a bond with Lugia at such a young age." Upon hearing Gengar's report, Gary was somewhat envious of Shuichi's opportunity.

Judging by their ages, Xiu Yi will be 10 years old in a few more years, and Lugia hasn't grown up at all. Legendary Pokémon grow very quickly; a few years is enough for them to reach the Elite Four level.

If Shuichi goes on a trip in the future and encounters that little Lugia, there's a high chance it will become Shuichi's Pokémon.

There's nothing we can do; some people are born to be chosen.

Shuichi is actually doing well. Look at Yurika, she'll become a trainer someday, but she starts with Zygarde. What's the point of her being a trainer then?

"Now that Lugia has appeared, Lugia should be in the nearby sea, and Team Rocket should be nearby as well."

Shigeru decided to thoroughly explore the "973" area of ​​the sea, and had Blastoise carry a light to search the surrounding waters.

Team Rocket's mission to capture Lugia involved a large force, essentially a base of members, plus Dr. Nanbo and two elite Team Rocket members, along with various high-tech weapons—a formidable fighting force.

Although the Lugia that appeared here wasn't very strong, it wasn't weak either. Of course, the main reason it was captured by Team Rocket was because its own child was captured by the other side, which led to it being tricked.

This Lugia easily destroyed Team Rocket's underwater base. With that level of power, its strength is definitely above the Elite Four level. Otherwise, such a large base wouldn't have been destroyed so easily.

Shigeru initially searched for Team Rocket's base in the waters surrounding the Xiu family's residence, but found nothing.

After some thought, Xiao Mao chose to search in the waters closest to Caesar City. Without much effort, he found Team Rocket's underwater base in the deep sea area ten kilometers away.

Team Rocket's underwater base is huge, capable of housing twenty or thirty people. No matter how advanced the underwater base is, since there are people and Pokémon inside, it definitely needs to be resupplyed. Therefore, it cannot be too far from the city, and supplies need to be replenished regularly.

Gary had already prepared an underwater tracker, which he had Gengar infiltrate Team Rocket's base to attach to the ventilation duct opening. Now, all that was left was to wait.

three days later.

Shigeru kept staring at the electronic map in his hand, on which a green dot was flashing continuously, representing the location of Team Rocket's underwater base. At this moment, the green dot kept flashing and its position was also moving little by little, moving towards the sea area near Shuu's house.

"Let's get started. Have Ash and the others arrived yet?" Gary asked, looking at the electronic map.

However, Gary doesn't plan to take action because, according to the storyline, Team Rocket's first attempt to capture Lugia was stopped by Ash and his friends, and they only succeeded on their second attempt. Next, they will capture the adult Lugia.

After capturing Lugia and her baby, it was Ash and his friends' turn to go to Team Rocket's underwater base to rescue them. Gary naturally waited until Lugia was captured before taking action.

Two hours later, the green dot on the electronic map stopped moving. Judging from its location on the electronic map, it was very close to the sea area near Xiu's family.

"Are we going to start taking action?"

Not long after, about an hour later, the sky suddenly became overcast, just like when we were in the Orange Islands. However, the overcast weather only lasted for a few minutes before it cleared up.

This means that the adult Lugia has appeared before Ash and his friends and cleared up the misunderstanding.

"This Lugia is truly terrifying. It changed the weather so easily; its strength must be considerable." Shigeru couldn't help but feel a little nervous, after all, there was still a certain risk involved in capturing Lugia's cubs this time.

"Blastoise, come out." Gary was a little worried, so he released Blastoise.

"Kami?"

Blastoise thought they were about to start something, but when it saw that it was in a room, it wondered why Gary had let it out.

"I'll give you a boost." Gary reached out and placed his hand on Blastoise's shell, using 6 Super Rare Candies.

Blastoise LV64-70!

Blastoise's level jumps to 70, surpassing the Elite Four level and reaching Champion level.
