Pokémon: Who let him leave Pallet Town?

Chapter 360 The Lugia Slate

Lugia's mother picked up baby Lugia and began feeding him.

"Natsume-nii, and then what?"

Taking advantage of a break, Ash looked at Natsume with hopeful eyes.

Natsume didn't reply, but just stared intently at the spot where Lugia's mother had left.

Hidden beneath banana leaves and sand, half of an ancient blue stone slab is visible.

[Ding! Lugia Slate discovered!]

Natsume picked up the stone slab, which was engraved with swirling patterns.

Why is the tablet of the priest Lugia here?
And
Natsume gazed at the blue vortex above, its surface shimmering with light, as if he were truly staring at the vortex on the sea's surface.

This is a stone slab that has been infused with divine power by Lugia and has already been activated!
"Natsume, it seems it still doesn't want Ash to leave," Misty said worriedly.

"Do not worry."

Natsume took out the hat that Satoshi had left on the deck and put it on his head.

He took out the red and white balls and threw them straight at Ash.

"Sizzle~" A flash of red light hit Ash, giving him a big bump on the head.

"Ouch!?"

Lugia's mother was stunned for a moment, then looked angrily at Natsume.

“I’m going to capture him!” Natsume pointed at Ash.

"what?"

Ash stood there stunned, only to find Natsume winking at him.

"Yes, I want to go on a trip. I think this person is quite kind and righteous."

Ash's brain went blank, and he ran towards Natsume while muttering to himself.

Seeing this, a complex look appeared in Lugia's mother's eyes.

Sure enough, the time came.
"what!"

Halfway there, Ash was pulled back by Lugia's mother.

She stood up, her tall shadow casting a wide shadow over Natsume and the others.

"Awoo!" Lugia's mother looked at Natsume scrutinizingly.

"What is she going to do?" Everyone was shocked.

"It's nothing, I just want to battle you and see if I'm qualified to become Ash's trainer." Natsume wiped his nose.

"What is all this?" Xiaoxia's lips twitched slightly.

"In that case, go, Loreton!"

Everyone made way for Natsume and Lugia's mother.

Lugia, Level 66

[Lolerton, lv59]

Although Loreton had intentionally battled him during this period and leveled up considerably, he was still somewhat inferior to the Lugia in front of him.

"Ouch!"

Seemingly recognizing Loreton's power, Lugia's mother was slightly taken aback.

"Perfect timing to test this new stone slab, human form!"

As Natsume spoke, he tossed the Lugia Slate in his hand.

"Kacha~"

Loletton instantly transformed into human form, pinched the stone slab that Natsume had thrown with two fingers, and pressed it down.

"Clang!" A slap.

A deep blue light flickered, spreading along Loletton's circuitry and throughout his entire body.

"Stab!"

The shell of the Wuji Tai Na behind it suddenly tore apart, revealing a pair of white, jade-like wings that stretched out like a pair of giant hands.

The black and red body of the Loletton has been replaced by a blue and white color scheme, with a touch of azure blue markings appearing at the corner of its eyes.

"Superpower + Flight, acquired!" a cold, mechanical voice announced.

"Ouch?"

Lucia's mother looked at Loletton in surprise.

For a fleeting moment, she felt that this unfamiliar Pokémon had suddenly become like one of her own kind.

"Lollerton, Cyclone Attack!"

Natsume tentatively revealed the unique skills of the Lugia species.

"boom!"

Loletton's wings, resembling giant hands, flapped suddenly, and it floated into the air.

Two enormous wings stretched forward, with long feathers at the tips spread out like a pair of giant hands reaching towards the ground.

Countless streams of air gathered in these large hands.

"Awoo!?" Lugia's mother's eyes widened.

Why does this Pokémon also know this move?

She paused for a moment, then subconsciously struck the same pose as Lollerton.

Seeing the two Pokémon preparing to clash, Natsume suddenly spoke up: "Loleton, don't unleash your Cyclone Attack all at once, try compressing it!"

"rub!"

The airflow suddenly shifted, and the energy core in Loletton's chest lit up sharply, with a powerful suction force helping to stabilize the airflow.

"boom!"

On the other side, Lugia's mother had a counterattack, but the Cyclone attack had already been launched.

The violent wind pressure knocked everyone to the ground.

Looking up, it looked like a tornado that had turned ninety degrees upside down, hurtling towards Loreton.

"Compressing it really makes a difference."

Natsume looked at Loletton's swirling attack with a strange expression.

Under the opponent's compression and absorption, its cyclone attack did not rush out directly like Lugia's mother.

The cyclone continued to circle, forming a circular cyclone region that blocked Loletton's chest.

"boom!"

Lugia's attack arrived as expected, with the raging cyclone colliding with the stable circular cyclone region.

Contrary to expectations, the cyclone in front of Lollerton's chest expanded several times in an instant.

"Absorbed?" Everyone's expressions were strange.

"Continue to compress."

Natsume gave the order.

Soon, the area of ​​airflow that Lollerton had condensed was compressed to the size of a basketball.

From a distance, this small "sphere" is filled with densely packed vortexes, resembling silk threads.

"Awoo?" Lugia's mother stared at Loletta strangely.

She didn't understand, what's the point?

"Alright, release them!"

With a wave of his hand, Natsume sent the basketball-sized compressed air mass to Lugia's mother in an instant.

The latter, out of curiosity, touched it.

"Boom!"

The cyclone was released, and a raging tornado instantly appeared, sucking Lugia's mother into it.

The surrounding sand and banana leaves were blown away, blinding everyone.

"Clap!"

A drop of rain fell on my face, and a salty smell filled the air.

Suddenly, a torrential downpour began, catching everyone off guard and soaking them to the bone.

"It's raining?"

"No, it was that attack that stirred up a huge amount of seawater!"

Xiao Gang pointed to Lugia's mother, who was lying on the ground not far away, her body soaking wet.

"What amazing power! Natsume, does your Pokémon have a lineage? Should I go and raise awareness about anti-poaching?"

Dr. Nanba's surprised voice came through Kosaburo's communicator.

"Ouch?"

Lucia's mother stood up groggily, looked up, and gazed at Loreton, which stood tall in the sky.

With a sense of relief, Lugia's mother shook her head at Natsume.

"Come back, Lollerton!"

"Natsume-nii, you're amazing—ouch!"

Before Ash could finish speaking, he was suddenly pushed away by a pair of pure white wings.

"Ouch!"

Lugia's mother looked at him seriously and pointed at Natsume.

"Alright, I've caught Ash!"

Natsume detained Satoshi.

"."

"Wait a minute, where's Lugia?"

Everyone was taken aback when they realized that Lugia, who had been sitting on the banana leaf, had disappeared again.

"Could they have slipped away again during the fight?"

"Pikachu."

Not far away, Pikachu struggled to drag the unconscious Lugia toward them, leaving a long trail on the beach.

Little Lugia still bore the charred marks of electric shock.

"Pikachu, Pikachu, Pikachu".

To prevent it from escaping, I knocked it unconscious beforehand.

Pikachu patted his chest.
