Pokémon: Starting with a strongman and a slacker

Page 226

"What are you daydreaming about? Can we start?"

"Okay, okay, right away!"

"Scyther, Quick Attack!"

"Gible, Dragon Breath!"

Scyther blinked several times as it approached, dodging the shockwave while simultaneously knocking Gible away.

"Excellent! Press the attack!"

"Cross scissors!"

The flying mantis flapped its wings and chased after them again, its two scythes slashing down!

"Don't think about it!"

"Dragon Claw!"

The Gible unleashed its powerful claws, clashing with the scythe!

Due to the interaction force, the two sprites were pushed backwards!

Gible landed steadily with a backflip, while Scyther also steadied itself and stopped in mid-air.

"Move at high speed!"

"Continuous cuts!"

The flying mantis flapped its wings and flew quickly, its two scythes flashing as it prepared to attack.

"sandstorm!"

Before Scyther could even reach Gible, its vision was obscured by the sandstorm, rendering it unable to achieve anything.

Damn it, that trick again!

Miao Caifeng hated this skill!

"Scyther, keep moving in the air!"

That way you won't be ambushed!

"Do you think this will work? Sandstorms alone can slowly wear down a Scyther."

"Otherwise what? You'd come down here and let me ambush you?"

Miao Caifeng knew it was useless, but she had no other choice!

Bai Jing shrugged. "Let's just wait it out then. I don't mind!"

Miao Caifeng racked her brains trying to figure out a way to break the sandstorm, but she couldn't come up with a suitable method no matter how hard she tried.

This is because none of the Scyther's skills can break through sandstorms.

This is a tragedy!

Then let's wait for the sandstorm to dissipate on its own.

However, just as the sandstorm was weakening, Bai Jing had the Gibles strengthen again, completely extinguishing Miao Caifeng's hopes.

She said helplessly, "Fine, I give up!"

"Accepted!"

At this moment, Miao Caifeng felt very resentful, and she decided in her heart to train a few Bug-type Pokémon that could deal with sandstorms and digging.

Then Deng Xin went off the court and won the game in a two-on-three match.

The two left with their Insect Badges, beaming with joy. Frustrated, Miao Caifeng decided to torment the other trainers who came to challenge her to vent her anger.

After spending a night in the town, the two went to the fruit forest outside the town the next day, because an insect-catching competition was held there every three days.

In addition to the prize, the first-place winner will also receive full ownership of that Pokémon.

Chapter 225 A Pot with Delightful Qualities

"Welcome to the Bug Catching Contest, everyone. Now, let me explain the rules of the contest."

"Each participant will receive a Bug-Catching Ball for the competition. They will have one day to catch one Pokémon, and can catch as many as they like until they are satisfied."

"Afterwards, use this Pokémon in battles. The first place winner will not only receive a prize, but will also own the Pokémon."

"Remember, there are surveillance cameras everywhere inside, and every Pokémon is registered. So please don't do anything reckless, or we have the right to take you to the police station."

This is to prevent anyone from stealing the elves.

"Those who want to participate in the competition can register now!"

Finally, the host added with a smile, "The registration fee is three thousand Dragon Coins!"

That's really unfair. In the end, apart from the first place winner, the other contestants essentially got nothing and even lost three thousand yuan.

But everyone has a bit of wishful thinking. What if I win first place? Not only will I get a prize, but I'll also get a great sprite. Three thousand dollars is a huge win!

By understanding this psychology, the organizers have no shortage of applicants.

"So, are you going to participate?"

"I only like water-based systems!"

"There are also Water-type Pokémon in the Bug type. I'll help you choose one with good stats."

"Okay, let's have some fun then!"

So Bai Jing and Deng Xin also signed up.

Bai Jing chose to assist Charizard, which can fly and is super effective against Bug-type Pokémon.

Deng Xin chose the Mosquito Coil Frog King.

After receiving the Bug-Catching Ball, the two took the two Pokémon into the forest.

Most of the creatures you see are common Pokémon like Caterpie and Weedle, and occasionally you'll see Paras and Orb-weaver crawling by. Hazelnut balls are also hanging from the trees.

"Let's go to a place with a water source first, and I'll help you choose a suitable one."

With the system prompts in place, Bai Jing didn't even bother to use the detection technique.

Bug-type Pokémon generally have lower potential, and as the host mentioned, all the Pokémon here are already in files, meaning they've already been screened. It's impossible to encounter Pokémon with high potential; finding a near-Elite One is already quite good.

As I walked, I wondered which Bug-type Pokémon have the Water attribute.

After thinking it over, it seems there are only two or three kinds. I don't know if they are here.

Water is the source of life. Without water, there can be no forests, let alone any living things.

The two first found a small lake.

"Look, there really is one!"

·· ·····Requesting flowers· ······

At this moment, an elf is gliding across the lake.

With its round body and four slender, long legs, it looks a lot like a spider.

"It's a sugar ball dessert, what a pity!"

"It's such a pity!"

Because the evolved form of the Sugarball, Rainwing Moth, is a Bug/Flying type, it is not suitable for Deng Xin at all, which is why the two of them said it was a pity.

"Let's go, let's look again!"

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

This sugar ball was not only unsuitable, but also of mediocre quality, so Bai Jing naturally looked down on it.

"This way!"

The system notification sounded, indicating that a promising Pokémon, or near-Elite Four potential, had been discovered.

Bai Jing quickly pulled Deng Xin in that direction.

When Bai Jing saw the sprite mentioned in the system notification, he vomited!
