Pokémon: Having just completed the Pokédex, I'm now traversing the world of Beast Taming.

"Dragon...Dragon?!!"

Xiong Lian took several steps back, his fighting spirit plummeting to rock bottom in an instant!

"Linxia!"

"You bastard, you've ruined me! Assassin Crimson is a Dragon Rider!"

"You didn't even know that??"

Xiong Lian roared at Lin Xia, his emotions already on the verge of collapse.

"Um?"

The Charizard seemed to realize something was wrong, and it sat up on the spot, bracing itself against the ground with its two claws.

"Don't panic. It only has the appearance of a dragon, but not the aura of one."

"A fake dragon!"

"It might not even be a pseudo-dragon!"

Lin Xia was startled, but fortunately, he did not detect any dragon aura from the pet when he was observing its aura.

"It looks exactly like a dragon, yet it's not a dragon?"

Xiong Lian also observed the aura, and indeed, there was no dragon aura. To put it bluntly, it was just a pet beast that looked exactly like a dragon.

It does not have the "Dragon" attribute.

"Even the Beastmaster can see that Charizard doesn't have the Dragon attribute."

Chi Hong was speechless; he couldn't understand what the designer was thinking.

Charizard is not a dragon...

"You scared the hell out of me!"

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

"Black Iron Lu! Take him down!"

Xiong Lian was furious. He had almost wet himself in fear. It turned out that it wasn't a dragon at all!

He ordered Hei Tielu to probe first, since Chi Hong still had pet beasts by his side, and those pet beasts were not easy to deal with.

Although he didn't know what the assassin Crimson was up to, making the pet retreat, Xiong Lian no longer had the confidence he had when he first arrived.

He decided to test this winged beast that looked like a dragon first!

"What's going on?"

"It looks completely sleepy, unlike Lucario which exudes the aggressiveness of a leader Pokémon!"

With his mind focused, Charizard's extreme drowsiness and reluctance to get out of bed also affected Chi Hong.

"Haaahhhhhh"

Chi Hong couldn't help but yawn.

"Click!"

Seeing Black Iron rushing towards Charizard, Lucario became anxious. He actually had a terrible temper and was full of hostility towards other humans.

Not to mention the local pet beasts; if his older brother hadn't given the order, he really wanted to rush up and start fighting!

Lin Xia squinted at the scene before him. He didn't rush to make a move. Although it didn't have the aura of a dragon, its appearance was just too intimidating!

Xiong Lian's willingness to make this seemingly reckless attempt was something he was happy to see.

Black Ironlu is very straightforward; he does whatever his master tells him to do, without caring whether the opponent is a dragon or not.

boom! ! !

Under the watchful eyes of everyone and their pets, Black Ironhide charged straight into Charizard's head.

Chi Hong was so affected by the Charizard's drowsiness that he didn't even have time to react.

The Charizard was jerked by the impact, its claws covering its head as it flapped its wings and flew into the air.

It took off in just one second.

The fire-breathing dragon, flying in mid-air, roared to the sky, its powerful aura sweeping outwards, and surging flames spewed from its mouth, shooting straight into the sky!

Lin Xia broke out in a cold sweat. The sudden roar and fire breath almost hit him while he was riding his bird!

"This aura..."

"This aura is rapidly increasing!"

"Do it!!"

Xiong Lian shouted loudly. He wasn't stupid. Although the fire-breathing dragon's aura had increased, it wasn't strong enough to take on all of their pets at once!

"What does this feel like?"

"I give up... my morning grumpiness..."

Influenced by Charizard's emotions, Chi Hong also felt a little irritated for a moment.

The opponent's five pets launched an attack simultaneously, using various skills such as wind blades, rocks, and fire to target the Charizard in mid-air!

"Let me show you with my life..."

"Charizard, Mega Evolution!"

Chi Hong raised his right hand, his mind highly focused, and he connected with the fire-breathing dragon, unleashing a sensational burst of energy!

The energy of the Mega Evolution enveloped Charizard, unleashing a barrage of attacks, explosions, and blinding light!

"Just like the previous two pets..."

"The form... has changed!"

Lin Xia's eyes were bloodshot. He had already sensed that something was wrong, but he could not let the hatred for his brother's murder go unavenged!

"roar!!!"

A powerful roar echoed throughout the forest!

All of Xiong Lian's pets took a few steps back; even the pure white swiftbird and the one-eyed dragon vulture flying in the air became disoriented.

The black and sky blue color scheme, with what appears to be a blue flame in its mouth, extending from the corners of its lips.

"Dragon... the aura of a dragon?"

"This is a fucking dragon! Unlike your fake dragon, Assassin Crimson is a Dragon Rider!"

Xiong Lian pointed at the Charizard; he had nothing more to say.

They've come with such fanfare to kill a Dragon Rider, they've already run out of options and have to fight to the death!

He didn't believe that if he begged for mercy now, the assassin Crimson would let him go!

How could a beast tamer capable of such a thing become an assassin?

Without precise commands, Charizard can move in the general direction that Chi Hong has in mind, simply by focusing his thoughts!

For example, right now...

Mega Charizard X unleashes a Dragon Pulse attack with a single breath!

A powerful dragon-attribute aura erupted, instantly shoving Black Iron into the ground and exploding into a dazzling display of fireworks!

Xiong Lian stared blankly at the scene, completely unable to react despite being an A-level beast tamer.

"What are you all standing there for!"

"Kill him with all your might! Although he's a dragon, his aura isn't strong enough to be unstoppable!"

Lin Xia roared, and the two pet beasts flying in the air launched an attack at the same time.

"This is your favorite, Lin Xia!"

"Destruction Ray!"

Chi Hong pointed at Lin Xia, and Charizard turned its head and unleashed a Hyper Beam!

Mega Charizard X has a base stat total of 130 in both Attack and Special Attack, making it a true "physical and magical hybrid".

When battling in the game, the limited number of moves, coupled with the fact that the ability changes to Hard Claw after Mega Evolution, makes the Special Attack base stat somewhat lackluster in battles.

But in the real world, it doesn't matter at all!

"Wasn't it supposed to be a destructive ray? When did it become a destructive death ray?"

Lin Xia was so frightened that she clung to the back of the pure white swift bird, frantically urging the bird to flap its wings faster.

The pure white whirlwind bird was already under immense pressure from the Dragon-type aura, yet it still managed to get its wing grazed by the Hyper Beam!

After finally regaining his balance, Lin Xia looked up and felt a chill run down his spine!

The fire-breathing dragon exuded an incredibly powerful dragon aura, even bringing forth the phantom image of a giant dragon!

It crashed hard into the one-eyed griffin.

The one-eyed griffin let out a mournful cry as it was struck head-on by the dragon's dive!

The one-eyed griffin instantly went still, its body falling in an arc into the distance.

"escape!!!"

Lin Xia immediately changed his mind, and his fighting spirit vanished completely!

To avenge my brother, I first need to survive!

"Die, Crimson Assassin!"

Xiong Lian seized the opportunity, and his two pet beasts roared as they charged toward Chi Hong!

That dragon, in the air, could never protect him!

He was going to take a gamble, even if it meant risking everything, to kill Crimson himself in front of the four beasts protecting him. As for the beasts going berserk, that was another matter!

Protected by his four pet beasts, Chi Hong was not flustered at all.

"Lucario, Serperior, Dragon Pulse."

"Rapidfire, Blaziken, Flamethrower!"

Chi Hong gave the order in an instant, and Xiong Lian felt numb.

Even though the dragon was in the air, the assassin's other two pets also released skills that emitted a strong dragon aura!

"Now, we're truly at Lin Xia's mercy!"

Xiong Lian gritted his teeth, his face contorted in a ferocious grimace.
