Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master.

Chapter 415 The Evolution of the Bottom-Tier Duo

"There are many impossible things in this world, like your ridiculously thick eyebrows, which I've never seen before in my life."

"What?"

When Xiao Zhi dared to laugh at his most prized feature, his eyebrows, Thick Eyebrows flew into a rage, and his confidants could only try to appease him.

At this moment, Michelle took the opportunity to run to Ash's side.

"How's it going, Ash?"

"It went smoothly; I've rescued everyone."

"That's great!" Michelle breathed a sigh of relief.

Having achieved their primary objective, they could simply slip away now without any problem.

However, Ash wouldn't just leave like that. He tossed the sunglasses back to Michelle, along with the little dragon.

"Fight with me a little longer, Michelle."

Perhaps because the leader specifically requested it, Baby Dragon was released from its petrified state early on and imprisoned alone in the battle carriage.

Michelle was so moved that she cried when she saw that all her belongings had been returned.

[Ding! Michelle: Affection +2]

"My dear dragon, I'm so glad you're alright."

"baby!"

She immediately put her sunglasses back on, placed the baby dragon in front of her, and entered battle mode. Her entire demeanor was instantly revitalized, and she returned to her previous cool and sassy self.

However, as soon as he saw Ash take out the Beast Dragon, Thick Eyebrows immediately regained his composure. He realized that all the spoils of this operation had probably been lost.

Sure enough, a young man with a large bag on his head quickly ran up from behind the armored vehicle convoy.

"Oh no, boss! All the statues have disappeared!"

"Damn it, I knew something was wrong!"

Although he had no idea how Ash managed to take all the statues away in such a short time, he knew that the person opposite him couldn't be judged by common sense.

Thick Eyebrows was now filled with images of J possibly killing him, and he hurriedly ordered his men to take action.

"Quickly, hold nothing back, we absolutely cannot let these two escape."

"If they take all the spoils, I'll be in big trouble, and none of you will survive!"

"Run away? I should be the one who hopes no one runs away." A rare hint of cruelty appeared on Ash's face.

"Lobster soldier, crab claw hammer."

Although Ash could have ended the battle faster by taking matters into his own hands, he chose to follow the rules of the world and resolve the issue through Pokémon battles.

After all, only when Pokémon become stronger can they trigger more advanced missions, allowing Ash to continue to grow stronger.

In his daily life, Ash has already reached his limit through simple training. The reason he never stops training his muscles is simply to maintain his battle condition.

If he wants to become stronger with his current strength, he can only start by working on the quests triggered by his Pokémon.

After all, he still has to fight Arceus's clones later, and who knows how much fighting power the clones have compared to the original.

In short, it's always good to be stronger and better prepared.

The initiative during the standoff between the two armies was seized by the unscrupulous Xiao Zhi, who quickly condensed the giant water pincers.

"Damn it, Röntgen, use Thunder Fang now and stop that stinky lobster!!"

At this moment, the lobster soldier leaped up with its large pincers, easily dodging the X-Rayet Cat's attack.

The crab claw hammer followed closely, delivering a heavy blow to the big cat's head.

Simultaneously, the water waves following the attack swept outwards, directly intercepting several Pokémon from the poaching group that were attempting to ambush them.

However, this Xenogear has excellent defense and was not defeated by a single crab claw attack.

It shook its head and stood up again, electricity surging in its mouth, and attacked the lobster soldiers once more.

"Oh, what a persistent guy."

However, Ash could see the contradiction in this Xeno'jiiva; although it would obey Thick Eyebrows' commands, it was still unwilling to fight.

It was never able to unleash its full potential.

"It seems that although it was subdued, it was still a stolen Pokémon. How could it possibly be truly connected with its trainer's mind?"

Ash felt sorry for the Xenogear.

"Lobster soldiers, ambush the vitals!"

True, understanding partners are like Ash and his friends, where a single glance is enough for Gryphon to understand what the other person means.

Instead of targeting Roentgen the Cat's vital points, the attack suddenly shifted and struck Thick Eyebrows.

"You bastard!"

He was startled and hurriedly rolled over to avoid it.

"Who's the bad guy here? How can the League members attack a trainer during a battle?!"

Although Thick Eyebrows had a history of attacking Pokémon Trainers, that didn't stop him from shamelessly criticizing Ash, since Ash was the good guy.

But Xiao Zhi knew these bad people very well and didn't take his words seriously at all.

"Shut up! This is a real, open fight. Who cares about morally bankrupt bastards like you!"

If he hadn't wanted to give the lobster soldiers more training, he would have already summoned his old pet to launch a righteous attack.

However, this sneak attack was not actually aimed at Ash's thick eyebrows.

Instead, taking advantage of the moment his attention was diverted, he immediately lifted up the sleazy guy from behind.

"Hypnotist, use your psychic powers to bring me the first Poké Ball on that thick-browed guy's waist."

"What?"

Thick Eyebrows realized something was wrong and immediately tried to reach out to stop him.

But he was a step too late. Before he knew it, the Poké Ball on his waist was ripped off by his psychic powers and flew quickly into Ash's hand.

Ash didn't hold back, immediately enlarging the Poké Ball and aiming it at Luxray.

"Come back, Xeno'jiiva. I will take you to find your true trainer. Stop fighting for these villains."

""

"Howl~"

A benevolent aura immediately surged forth. Sensing Ash's true intentions, Xeno'jiiva glanced at the thick eyebrows behind it and offered no resistance, being immediately recalled by the Poké Ball.

"Damn it, this ungrateful cat! I thought it was all trained!"

Thick Eyebrows flew into a rage, throwing out all the remaining Poké Balls from his waist and releasing several ferocious Toxicroaks. "Use Poison Sting, all of you! Pierce those brats through!!"

These dark blue frogs, whose mouths appeared to be covered in mustaches, quickly opened their mouths to attack.

They were well-trained and worked together seamlessly, their overwhelming barrage of poisonous needles instantly obscuring the entire sky above Ash and his friends.

"Haha, die from my poisoned needle rain!"

"Baby Dragon, use Flamethrower in the southwest direction (32nd position)!"

The poisonous needles raining down on the thick eyebrows were instantly analyzed for their weaknesses by the powerful AI in Michelle's sunglasses, and then easily bypassed.

"Oh no, how could that be!"

"The Poison Needle Rain that you're so proud of isn't all that great after all. Hypnotic Tapir uses its psychic powers again, the Armored Dragon gathers its energy, and then the Lobster Soldier throws the Armored Dragon out like a cannonball!"

Under the cover of the hypnotic membrane, the Shrimp and the others clashed with the Toxapex Frogs, and the melee that had been paused by Ash's appearance immediately resumed.

The surrounding minions, along with their Pokémon, continued their attack on the Shellder Dragon that had landed among them.

"Baby Dragon, breathe fire!"

"The armored dragon uses its mind-mashing attack to rush back to the lobster soldier and repeat the throwing attack from before."

"Hypnotic Baku, use your telekinesis to clear the passage."

Several Black Growlithe pounced forward, only to be instantly knocked away by the returning Shellder.

Then comes the hypnotic membrane clearing the battlefield, using telekinesis to sweep away the fallen opponents and prevent these "corpses" from interfering with the already slow speed of the armored dragon.

Baby Dragon's flamethrower promptly repelled several Poison Skull Frogs that were trying to ambush it, and now more cannonballs are coming!

Bang!

Each time the armored dragon lands after gathering its energy, it creates a violent explosion, just like a real cannonball.

The four Pokémon worked together seamlessly, breaking through the poaching gang's formation.

"Damn it, don't lose, guys! Charge again!"

They're really going all out for thick eyebrows these days, throwing in treatment drugs like they're free.

If the vanguard is defeated, they are immediately pulled down for treatment, and the next batch takes their place.

By the time the next batch is defeated, the previous batch will have mostly recovered.

Now all he can do is try to overwhelm Ash's Pokémon with sheer numbers.

Of course, his tactics weren't entirely useless. Without Ash making a move, the stamina of all four Pokémon was gradually being depleted.

But they all gritted their teeth and persevered, without the slightest thought of giving up the fight.

Even the baby dragon didn't back down. After its throat hurt from breathing fire, it stood on the claws of the lobster soldier along with the armored dragon and was thrown out like a cannonball.

After calculating the trajectory using Michelle's sunglasses, it used its hard skull and armored dragon to bombard its opponent.

Each time, it inflicts significant damage on the enemies.

Of course, it always laughed heartily every time it was tossed out by the lobster soldiers.

Perhaps it doesn't have such a strong fighting spirit; it's just playful and enjoys the feeling of flying.

As the Pokémon's stamina waned, the enemy's encirclement drew ever closer.

Suddenly, the lobster soldiers, the armored dragon, and the baby dragon all lit up with a dazzling white light.

"Will all three Pokémon evolve together?" Ash looked at them with delight; this was the moment he had been waiting for.

It's great to have encountered so many bad guys.

At this moment, Michelle watched nervously as armor grew on the baby dragon's body, which was enveloped in light. The baby dragon's entire body became round and plump, with only its eyes and four legs showing.

The Armored Dragon has completed its evolution.

Ash's Shellder finally emerged from its cocoon, its pair of blood-red delta wings stretching freely in the air.

It has finally survived the two months of not eating or drinking.

The Salamence finally realized its dream of soaring freely through the sky.

Unlike the Salamence family, which undergoes complete metamorphosis, the Lobster Soldier changes much less, remaining essentially the same large lobster.

Its size increased by two sizes, the three tufts of hair on its head turned into a five-pointed star, several blue patterns appeared on its chest, and the ferocious horns on its body suddenly increased, making it look quite fierce and domineering.

However, its intelligent yet blank stare remains unchanged from when it was Soldier Lobster, indicating that evolution has not improved its intelligence.

"Hmm, it has to look a bit the same to be recognizable as my Pokémon."

[Ding! Salamence: Affection +5; Intimacy +5]

[Ding! Iron Claw Lobster: Favorability +5; Intimacy +5]

All three Pokémon evolved in a short period of time, changing the situation where the poaching group had the upper hand.

Although Ash's Shellder could no longer serve as a cannonball after evolving into Salamence, Michelle's Bagon immediately evolved to fill the gap.

The lobster-shaped human cannon continues to fire at full power.

Now in its final form, the Iron Claw Lobster's combat power has increased dramatically thanks to its high stats and adaptability.

Its projectiles, launched with the crab claw hammer, are even more ferocious, each strike capable of severely injuring a large group of enemies.

A new aerial harassment unit, the Salamence, has also been added.

Even with a large number of poachers, Ash alone, without taking action, was already facing a one-sided situation with just these three Pokémon.

After Michelle's Shellder launched another cannonball, Ash began the final cleanup.

"Salamander, Hyper Beam!"

"Iron-clawed lobster, crab claw hammer!"

The massive water pincers and devastating light waves swept across the entire camp, and the explosion left the enemy with no room to maneuver.

All the poachers and their Pokémon were defeated, none escaped.

The hypnotized tapir used its telekinetic powers to sort and stack them, forming a unique Jingguan (a type of mound of corpses).

[Ding! Congratulations on completing the side quest "I am a champion of justice!": Defeat the entire poacher gang.]

【获得奖励：联盟币+4000；攻击+2；特攻+2；丰缘地区声望+5；丰缘地区好感度+5；神奥地区声望+10；神奥地区好感度+10】

"It's finally done." Ash thought it would be a simple task, but he didn't expect it to cause so much trouble.

After contacting Officer Jenny, Ash used his usual tortoiseshell bindings to tie up the poachers and left them aside to await their final fate.

As for those armored vehicles and the equipment on them, Xiao Zhi naturally accepted them without hesitation, especially the petrification gun that Thick Eyebrow wore on his wrist.

Although it has been damaged by Ash's Pokémon, it might be repaired if we send it back to the lab in Dark City.

By this time, Michelle, the genius science girl, had finished repairing all the glass devices.

After being trapped for so long, their companion has finally been restored to normal.

After turning the knob, Xiaoyao, Xiaosheng, and the forest lizard quickly de-petrified.

"Ugh, it's so bright! Where am I?"

Xiaoyao and her friends looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings, completely bewildered.

"It feels like so much time has passed."

"Because you have been petrified."

"what?"

Because the thick eyebrows were a lie! It was a cover-up! These young comrades had to have Xiaozhi explain the situation to everyone before they understood.

"I understand the general idea, but Satoshi—why is Miss Michelle so close to you now!?"

At this moment, Xiaoyao's eyes were fixed on Michelle, who had been affectionately clinging to Xiaozhi's arm since he started talking.

"Satoshi, is there something you haven't told us yet?"

"Well, hahaha—"
