Pokémon: Who let him leave Pallet Town?

Chapter 330 The Rings of Time
"Ash, you guys stall for a bit, I'll think about it."

Natsume's voice echoed in Ash and Yukinari's minds.

"it is good!"

Ash's eyes sparkled.

Ash Ketchum has dispatched Pikachu!

Trainer Yukinari has sent out Charmeleon!

[Lincoln Laden, the forest ranger, has dispatched a Pidgeot!]

A wild Mewtwo has joined the battle, choosing to stand against Celebi!

The system's voice sounded in my mind.

If you keep dragging out the round without attacking, the maximum duration is three minutes.

This means I have nine minutes.

As Natsume pondered, he shook his head from side to side, surveying the space around him.

This is a space entirely composed of green vines.

In front of him floated two figures: a man with a middle parted head who was unconscious, and a shurabi whose body was completely black.

"It was already absorbed into the Dark Sphere."

Natsume frowned.

That's strange. The poacher used a Dark Ball to capture Celebi, so why didn't he just run away?

Indulging a shurab's rage will only destroy its body in the end. What's the point of poaching such a shurab?
A small amount of gas emanated from the man with the center-parted hair, which was absorbed into Celebi's body.

Natsume looked down and discovered that his psychic powers were being absorbed by the other party.

"What kind of characteristic is this?"

Natsume frowned and severed his connection with Celebi.

Outside, inside the battle space, the enormous plant dragon suddenly trembled, like a toy that had run out of power, and the telekinetic armor attached to its body vanished completely.

"Wake up!"

Natsume used the Awakening Slap.

"Pickup?"

Soon, the man with the middle parting groggily opened his eyes.

"Tell me quickly, how did you get here?"

Natsume planned to get something out of the man with the middle parting.

"Pikachu Pikachu"

The person with the middle parting had no idea what to do; all they knew was that they had taken a nap while holding Celebi, and the first thing they saw when they woke up was Natsume's Daihito.

Very well, you wasted a minute of his time.

"Hey Hey hey."

Natsume reached out and waved his hand in front of Celebi.

Although the other person had their eyes open, they did not react to Natsume's actions.

"Ok?"

Natsume pondered for a moment, then saw the man with the middle parting hand him a stun gun.

"."

"Take it back."

Natsume glanced at the other person, then turned his gaze back to Celebi.

In the original movie, it seems that Ash woke up the other person.

Thinking of this, Natsume began to transmit his thoughts:
"Ash, try to wake up Celebi."

Perhaps something amazing will happen to Ash; that's one possibility.

After transmitting his voice, Natsume subconsciously used his telekinesis to probe Celebi, but found nothing except that the Grass Dragon's telekinetic armor had been activated again.

[Cleric recruitment has begun. Please provide more battle data.]

The system's voice suddenly rang in his mind, and Natsume frowned.

To defeat a rabbi or free someone from their clutches, one must first understand their divine role.

Natsume glanced at his rival, Mewtwo.

"Hmm, there shouldn't be any problem."

"Let's try a battle, Ash."

Natsume's voice rang out again, startling Ash who had been shouting for several minutes.

"Alright, let's go, Pikachu, use Quick Attack!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Pikachu transformed into a bolt of lightning and struck the Grass Dragon.

"Kacha~"

The thick stamina bar had a layer of health rubbed off.

Charmeleon used Flamethrower!

[Mewtwo used Mental Breakdown!]

[Phidden Eagle used the Divine Bird's Might!]

One attack after another hit the Grass Dragon, causing its health bar to drop rapidly until it was less than half full.

"So much meat?" Natsume was taken aback.

However, if we play another round, even if the opponent has a second health bar, it will only take three rounds.

I've given Xiaozhi quite a bit of medicine, so there shouldn't be any problems.

"Okay, keep it up."

Before Natsume could finish his encouraging words, Celebi's stamina bar flashed green and instantly recovered.

[The shrine's rings have taken effect! It has returned to its state from one round ago!]

The system's announcement sounded.

Natsume was slightly taken aback.

[You have added a new clerical trait.]

Natsume clicked on it abruptly and saw Celebi's divine characteristics.

【Shrabah】

[Cleric Trait: Tree Rings. The tree rings are interlocked and gradually increase in length. A shrine can jump to a previous tree ring and return to a previous point in time (abnormal)]

The anomaly point cannot be opened, and the specific values ​​of the growth rings cannot be displayed.

"Ash, keep going!"

Natsume needs more battle data.

"boom!"

[The shrine priest used the divine skill "Reversal of Age Rings".]

[The tree's annual rings, a sign of molting, struck the Pidgeot!]

"Biga!"

Pidgeot let out a painful howl, but the stamina bar above its head remained unchanged.

But under everyone's watchful eyes, the opponent's level dropped from LV62 to LV61.

"what is this?"

Xiaozhi and Xuecheng were astonished.

Mewtwo suddenly turned its head and looked at Pidgeot.

In its perception, this Pidgeot not only seemed to have dropped in level, but also appeared to be a little younger.
"This trick seems to make you young again?"

Mewtwo strangely offered its guess.

Natsume also received the system's basic analysis, which was largely consistent with Mewtwo's guess.

"If they get hit too many times, won't Pikachu and the others turn back into Pokémon eggs?"

Ash exclaimed in surprise.

"You don't need to hit multiple times, just one hit is enough. The level will drop by one level every round."

Natsume's serious voice rang out.

Everyone was stunned, instantly realizing the seriousness of the situation.

"Quickly, recall the low-level Pokémon!"

Mewtwo reminded me.

If it were to turn back into a Pokémon egg and become even younger, it would simply disappear.

Ash switched to a level 41 Heracross that cannot be degraded.

"I only have one Pokémon!"

Xuecheng panicked. He only brought one Charmeleon, and this Charmeleon was the lowest level among all the Pokémon, only LV19.

Suddenly, Xuecheng caught a glimpse of the exhausted and dying old Bin Laden.

"Ugh?"

Xue Cheng had a flash of inspiration.

Trainer Yukinari recalled his Charizard, and Ranger Laden joined the battle, now standing against Celebi!

Inside the Silabhi, Natsume watched strangely as Yukinari moved Bin Laden onto the battlefield.

By the way, can humans participate?
Natsume looked strange.

Fine, if the system doesn't report any errors, then we'll accept it as the default.

"continue."

Natsume's voice rang out.

Soon, another round of attacks followed.

As before, Celebi's health bar was just over half full, but it instantly returned to full as the new round began.

[The clergy section has been updated.]

Natsume clicked on it eagerly.

【Shrabah】

[Celestial Trait: Tree Rings. When Celebi suffers a fatal wound, it will teleport back three turns.]

[Abnormal Status: Tree Rings, Celebi burns life. For the next turn, each time damage is taken, the user will be relegated to the previous turn.]

"hiss"
