Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 251 Ash: I must defeat Mammon and save Rika!
What was the most sensational event recently?
This naturally refers to the change of leadership within the evil Team Rocket organization, and the new Team Rocket boss is none other than Mammon, the champion of last year's Indigo League!
To be honest, when they first heard the news, Ash and his friends immediately thought it was a rumor.

After all, they had personally interacted with Mammon, and Mammon was clearly a very nice person!
But Xiaoxia searched for a lot of information, and there was even a recording of Mammon's broadcast at the time.

then……

Then Ash and the other two fell silent.

Ash, in particular, had rather complicated feelings. He had a good impression of Mammon and regarded him as a future rival.

But unexpectedly, Mammon became a member of the Rockets.

Most importantly, they actually encountered Mammon, and right here in Jade Rainbow City!
This is Yuhong City, after all. Even if this is a training ground, is it normal for Mammon, the leader of this evil organization, to swagger around here like this?
"Oh, it's you guys, Ash. What a coincidence."

Mammon was also quite surprised, and greeted Ash and the others with a smile.

"Mammon, are you the leader of Team Rocket?"

Ash's eyes held both wariness and anticipation; perhaps it was just a case of the same name?
"I didn't expect you to know about this, Ash. That's right, I am the boss of Team Rocket."

Mammon readily admitted it.

"!!" Xiao Zhi's face froze instantly.

This is absolutely ridiculous! A boy he met by chance turned out to be the final boss of the evil Team Rocket!

There's clearly no such plot in the TV series.

"Where is Master Rika? Why is Master Rika here with you?"

Xiaoxia looked at Lijia, who was following behind Mammon. Lijia was the head of the Jade Rainbow Dojo.

Lijia's pretty face showed some hesitation, and she opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something.

"Miss Rika is my prized possession. The fragrant Miss Rika is really adorable."

Mammon, however, grabbed Rika's waist, pulling her close to him instantly.

The sudden action caused Rika, who hadn't had time to react, to instinctively gasp in surprise.

"stop!"

"How could this be?"

"Mammon, you're wrong!"

Xiao Zhi and his two companions were shocked. Wasn't this tantamount to abducting a woman? This was simply outrageous.

"Oh? So you're here to stop me? To rescue Miss Rika?"

Mammon watched the three of them with great interest.

"Otherwise, I'll take Rika with me."

"We absolutely will not let you act recklessly! Miss Lijia, don't worry, we will definitely bring you back!"

Ash's eyes were extremely determined. He would never let such a thing happen before his eyes. Miss Rika was the Gym Leader of Rainbow City, and this city needed her.

I must save her!

"..." Rika lowered her head, afraid that Ash and the others would see her expression.

"You're certainly brave, but I'm the boss of Team Rocket, Ash. Do you think the three of you are a match for me?"

Mammon, still holding Rika, spoke leisurely and slowly.

He found it quite amusing to see Ash rushing up while shouting things like "justice," "peace," and "save people."

"No matter what kind of opponent we face, as long as my Pokémon and I work together, we can definitely defeat them!"

Ash clenched his fist and spoke with unwavering conviction, full of a sense of justice.

Ash's fighting spirit was especially high when facing the evil Team Rocket.

"Tsk~"

Mammon couldn't help but click his tongue.

"Then let me help you face reality."

Mammon thought for a moment, then took out a Poké Ball and opened it. The aloof and elegant Boreas avatar landed in front of Mammon, calmly gazing ahead.

But the next moment, Suicune's eyes underwent a subtle change.

It sensed that the boy wearing a hat opposite it had Ho-Oh's rainbow feathers on him. Upon closer inspection, it realized that this was the same boy that Ho-Oh's guard had been observing.

Shui Jun was taken aback, but didn't think too much about it.

After all, it is now Mammon's Pokémon, and it has made a promise with Mammon to work hard for a clear and blue world!

It doesn't matter if the opponent is a young man favored by Lord Ho-Oh.

Mammon can even summon Lord Ho-Oh as reinforcements!

But Xiaozhi and Xiaogang were shocked.

"Suicune!"

Xiaoxia exclaimed in surprise, "That's Suicune! One of her favorite Pokémon!"

"Suicune, one of the legendary Ho-Oh's guards."

Xiao Gang exclaimed in surprise, "This is a legendary Pokémon!"
Ash didn't quite understand, but he realized what Misty and Brock meant: this Pokémon seemed really powerful.

Ash took out his Pokédex and pointed it at Suicune.

Suicune, a Water-type Pokémon, is an Aurora Pokémon.

It possesses the power to instantly purify filthy water and is said to be the embodiment of the North Wind.

The Pokédex provides a simple introduction to Suicune.

The embodiment of the North Wind? That sounds incredibly powerful.

Why would Suicune follow Team Rocket?

Xiaoxia still couldn't quite accept it. She originally had a good impression of Mammon, well, because Mammon was very handsome and suited her aesthetic.

But when I learned that Mammon had become the leader of an evil organization like Team Rocket, my illusions crumbled.

And now Mammon has kidnapped Gym Leader Rika, seemingly intending to take her back to do all sorts of horrible things. But how could Suicune possibly approve of someone like that? Misty finds it utterly unbelievable.

"No matter why, since it's an opponent, all I need to do is defeat it!" Ash didn't think that far ahead.

"And if it's a Water-type, then Pikachu! I choose you!"

"Pika~chu!"

Pikachu, full of energy, leaped off Ash's shoulder and landed opposite Suicune, tiny arcs of electricity flickering on its cheek sacs.

Ash was very confident in his Pikachu, and the Electric type was super effective against Water, giving him a type advantage.

Will win!
"I don't know why you joined Team Rocket, Mammon! I'll beat you!"

It will bring you back to the right path!

Ash didn't say this aloud. He still believed that Mammon wasn't a purely evil person, and that defeating him would surely bring him to his senses.

"You're really confident, Ash. But I'm afraid you can't do it." Mammon chuckled twice and beckoned to Ash with his finger.

"Come on, let me see how strong your Pikachu is."

Mammon was indeed quite curious about Ash's current level.

After all, this is the talent template of Ash Ketchum, the Rainbow Warrior from the movie, and his talent is extremely outstanding.

Mammon's arrogant and dismissive attitude made Ash instantly furious.

"Damn it, so arrogant!"

Clearly, Ash Ketchum still has that impulsive personality, unlike the passionate yet mature and composed character he is in during the Journey arc of the anime.

"Pikachu! Use Thunderbolt!"

Ash decisively ordered an attack.

Actually, this wasn't a formal battle. Ash could have sent out several of his main Pokémon, as long as he could manage them.

But Ash is clearly not that kind of person. Besides, he felt that Mammon only used one Suicune, while he used several Pokémon.
This is clearly unfair.

Although it's a bit ridiculous to talk about fairness with an evil organization, that's what Ash thinks right now.

Pikachu moved its limbs rapidly, galloping at high speed before leaping into the air, its body crackling with electricity as it unleashed a swift 100,000-volt attack.

"Super speed."

Suicune raised its head and looked at Pikachu, its gaze still aloof and calm.

A hundred thousand volts struck, but a gust of wind blew by, and Suicune's figure instantly disappeared from the spot.

The 100,000 volts landed, but missed; it did not hit its target.

"So fast!" Xiaoxia exclaimed in surprise.

"With the speed boost from the priority move, Suicune is too fast," Brock whispered.

After the 100,000 volts subsided, the electricity on Pikachu disappeared, and it began to fall to the ground.

But next second.

boom!
A blurry, pale blue figure slammed into Pikachu, causing it to yelp in pain and fall to the ground.

It's Suicune's lightning-fast attack!
"Pikachu!" Ash called out worriedly.

"Freezing light."

Before Suicune even landed, it opened its mouth and gathered ice light, a winding, icy beam shooting towards Pikachu on the ground.

The pursuit came so quickly.

"Pikachu! Get out of the way!" Ash shouted to Pikachu.

Mammon raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. Using "Get out of the way!" right at the start? Is he trying to kill himself?
Pikachu opened its eyes, gritted its teeth and endured the pain from being hit by Extreme Speed, and quickly got up and leaped back, narrowly avoiding the Ice Beam.

Suicune did not give up, but controlled the Ice Beam to continue spreading and catch up with Pikachu, with crystal clear ice crystals appearing where the Ice Beam passed.

Pikachu rolled and jumped backwards, almost getting caught by the Ice Beam, but escaped unharmed.

Pikachu is so agile.

The Freeze Ray ended, but before Pikachu could even catch its breath, the pale blue figure shot in like lightning again.

boom!
With another muffled thud, Haki's Divine Speed ​​struck Pikachu once more, sending it flying.

The speed was simply too fast; even Ash's Pikachu couldn't react in time, let alone the significant difference in strength between the two.

"Pikachu! Damn it!"

Ash gritted his teeth. This speed was just too fast. What good countermeasures could Pikachu possibly have?

and……

Seeing Pikachu panting after only being hit by Suicune's Extreme Speed ​​twice, it's clear that Suicune's Extreme Speed ​​is also quite powerful.

"Zhipi is really tough; he managed to survive two Divine Speed ​​attacks."

Mammon continued to hold Rika's slender waist with one hand, while touching his own chin with the other.

Anyone who has watched the anime can see that Ash's Pikachu is a Pokémon with almost no flaws.

Its physical attack, special attack, defense, explosive power, agility, and stamina are almost perfect.

Zhi Pi's willpower, in particular, is incredibly strong; sometimes he's like an unkillable cockroach.

Phrases like "Stand up," "Come on," and "Show your backbone" can trigger a certain threshold in a person's intelligence.

Unfortunately, the current Chess is still no match for Mammon's Suicune, and can't even counter Suicune's Extreme Speed.

Ash frowned, wondering if he should switch to Charizard.

Well, Charizard and Pikachu are currently the strongest in his team.

But Charizard is weak to water...

Xiao Zhi was conflicted.
