Pokémon: Ash the New Generation, Starting from Sinnoh

Seeing this, Steelix immediately condensed a blackish-purple energy ball in its mouth, preparing to unleash a powerful attack, Hyper Beam.

"scroll!"

Upon seeing the other party's actions, Snorlax immediately began to roll. As a large solid ball, its weight caused the ground to tremble.

"roar~"

The crimson gaze locked onto Snorlax's rolling body, and Steelix unleashed a purplish-black energy beam towards Snorlax.

"Oh no, that's going to hit us!"

The girl called out anxiously, and Xiao Gang frowned, unable to guess what Xiao Zhi was thinking.

"Jump up!"

Under their watchful eyes, Snorlax, in its paw-like form, suddenly bounced forcefully, using its thick, elastic fat to bounce repeatedly in place.

The reaction force from the ground propelled Snorlax like a slingshot, bypassing the energy beam of Hyper Beam and heading straight for Steelix's head.

Leveraging its massive weight and the speed generated by its reaction force, the combination of these two factors resulted in a boulder launched by a giant catapult.

The weight of the falling object stunned Steelix's steel head, causing it to collapse to the ground, barely clinging to life.

However, the Snorlax falling from the sky once again aimed at Steelix's metal head, and without even using any moves, simply slammed Steelix into the ground by its weight.

The impact of landing mid-air caused Ash and his two friends, who were watching the battle, to fall to the ground.

"This... Steelix shouldn't be 'gone', right?"

After the girl got up, she looked at the Steelix that had sunk a meter or two into the ground and asked Ash and Brock next to her with some uncertainty.

Xiaogang:......

Xiao Zhi: ...

Neither of them dared to answer, and they quickly rushed towards the location of the Steelix.

Let Snorlax get up and help save the critically injured Steelix.

Chapter 48: This move is powerful, but unethical.

"Hey, Ash caught another new Pokémon!"

Having learned from the previous lesson of the lab being destroyed by Aerodactyl, Professor Oak took the initiative to check the Pokémon's identity this time, discovering it to be a massive Steelix.

"Not bad, we just finished studying the fossil pterosaur and you've already sent over new materials!" Professor Oak nodded in satisfaction and went to the backyard of the research institute to prepare for its release.

However, when he threw the super-heavy ball, he discovered that what emerged from it was a large steel snake with a scarred head.

"**! How did this big guy get so badly injured?!"

This discovery was alarming. Startled, Oak revealed the encrypted password, quickly retrieved Steelix back into its ball, and rushed back to the research institute's treatment equipment without a second thought.

"That guy really knows how to give this old man a hard time!" He muttered to himself as he typed on the keyboard, complaining about a certain boy far away in Sinnoh.

"Steel Snake is so badly injured, is Professor Oak really sure he'll be alright just by relying on senryu?"

Recalling the Steelix whose armor had cracked, Dawn looked worried and asked Ash uncertainly.

"Don't worry, Professor Oak isn't just talking about senryu poets. Being a Pokémon professor is the proper profession, and the sophisticated instruments in the research institute are even more effective than those in the Pokémon Center!"

Seeing that the girl was only focused on Professor Oak's identity as a senryu poet, he repeatedly assured her.

He had seen Professor Oak use his sophisticated equipment to bring Rattata back from the brink of death.

Although Steelix was badly beaten by Snorlax, he secretly fed it a Spirit Cube, and with Professor Oak's equipment, there was definitely no problem saving it.

only……

"I hope that Steelix won't be traumatized!" Brock said pitifully, feeling sorry for Steelix.

It was knocked unconscious by Snorlax's big butt sitting on its forehead. I wonder what Steelix will think when it encounters Snorlax in the future.

"Cough cough~"

Since he didn't really want to bring up the topic of losing money in his first jungle game, he quickly changed the subject.

"It looks like we can see the town ahead! Let's charge!" Ash immediately led Pikachu and charged out.

Dawn followed Ash without understanding why, leaving Brock with a knowing smile before finally catching up.

"It seems we can't use this move recklessly. We still need to teach Snorlax more skills to broaden its offensive range and improve its regular offensive methods!"

Along the way, Xiao Zhi ran while thinking.

He had learned a lesson from Steelix: this kind of battle strategy should never be applied to ordinary Pokémon battles.

Otherwise, every time you beat someone to the point of near death, you'll have to sacrifice a Vitality Cube, and you'll eventually suffer a huge loss.

I finally managed to get a small windfall because I defeated three high-level Pokémon in a row in the last battle against Hunter J.

If we were to bring Steelix to the brink of death just because of this one incident, we would lose most of our wealth.

"These Yuanli blocks are good, but they're really damn expensive. One block costs 5000 gold coins."

Data template

Gold: 4399

Seeing that only a certain mini-game value remained in his gold coin account, Xiao Zhi really wanted to cry. He felt that all his previous hard work in farming was for nothing.

One mistake caused Scizor and Pikachu to waste all the time they spent farming monsters.

With this little money, besides buying an evolution stone, it can only let Snorlax train a few more moves.

"Alas, it's a pity that Snorlax doesn't know Belly Drum yet!"

Belly Drum is a boosting move that Snorlax can learn, and it is of great significance to Snorlax.

Snorlax, an Attack-oriented Pokémon with a base Attack stat of 110, can maximize its Attack stat with Belly Drum, delivering explosive damage in one hit.

Although this requires sacrificing half of Snorlax's HP, it works well when combined with Ash's leftovers for Snorlax, as well as Snorlax's Sleep and Sleep Talk moves.

Even when Snorlax is at half health and weakened, it can still achieve perfect results by combining the recovery from Sleep and the counterattack from Sleep Talk.

That's definitely the maximum damage a normal Snorlax can deal.

Unfortunately, Snorlax hasn't learned Belly Drum yet, so all of this is just wishful thinking.

"Ash, are you sure you can handle this? Why are you standing behind me?!"

Xiao Guang bent over with his hands behind his back, and shook his right index finger in the air, as if to say, "Can you do it?"

While Ash was thinking, the girl had already surpassed him with Pikachu and was now smugly mocking the boy below.

Even Brock, who started running last, surpassed Ash.

"Snorlax still needs more training to gradually improve its strength!" Ash muttered in conclusion, then turned his gaze to the mischievous girl and used Agility to rush towards her.

"Ah! Run!"

Upon seeing Ash using a skill for the first time, the girl panicked, abandoning Pikachu beside her and rushing forward.

Unfortunately, Ash, who used high-speed movement, got faster and faster and soon caught up with Dawn.

"Pikachu, it's just the two of us again!"

Xiao Gang, with his squinty eyes, and Huang Pihaozi exchanged a glance, both seeing helplessness in each other's eyes, and sighed at the same time.

Yet he had no choice but to start walking and catch up with the two people who were walking further and further away.

……

Research Institute

"What on earth happened? How did such a big dent get on my forehead?!"

After roughly healing the wounds on Steelix, Professor Oak faced a new question.

Can anyone tell him how to do it to leave a mark on Steelix's steel head?

"Besides, this shape... it looks so much like... a butt!" Da Mu, wearing a white lab coat, couldn't help but rest his chin on his hand and think.

That's ridiculous. What Pokémon attacks with its butt?

"Xiao Jian, what do you think about this?"

His gaze shifted to the young man beside him, who was also wearing a white coat and had a red headband around his forehead. This was Ash's companion from the Orange Islands, Tracey.

"Professor, I'm a little unsure, but this shape is most likely Snorlax's butt, and considering Snorlax is with Ash, I think..."

As the person who is often responsible for feeding Snorlax, Jian often sees the marks left where Snorlax sat.

Therefore, Xiao Jian made this rather bold and immature guess.

"This……"

Although it sounds unbelievable, Professor Oak has actually agreed with Tracey's guess.

His expression was somewhat complicated; he was very curious how Ash managed to get Snorlax to do that. Even Iron Boy's head was broken from the effort.

Honestly, this move is very powerful, but it's a bit unethical.
