Pokémon: Trainers Returning from Monster Hunter

in fact.

Not only did J underestimate Oreki, but Oreki also underestimated J.

To be precise, they underestimated the opponent's other Pokémon.

Based on Oreki's current understanding of Elite Four level trainers, under normal circumstances, only their Ace trainers can reach the level of Elder Dragons.

But J is not!

Her trump card, Salamence, isn't much better than Genji's.

Of the remaining three, the Dragon Scorpion and the Weavile are both Elder Dragon-level creatures.

Are Gu Long novels so cheap these days?

Oreki couldn't help but ask a profound question.

Ultimately, he convinced himself by saying that Pokémon's potential is limitless.

In the game, a level 100 Caterpie can even kick low-level pseudo-legendary creatures.

Moreover, the real world is often unreasonable.

Thinking of Ash's Pikachu, Giovanni's Beedrill, and Psylocke's Delibird and Slug, Oreki felt relieved.

Hunter J's breeding talent is definitely not low, and coupled with her money-making speed, it wouldn't be a problem for her to use resources to create several Pokémon of Elite Four ace level.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to remain at large despite being wanted by the Sinnoh League.

However, this has led to Oreki's somewhat awkward situation now.

Without suitable armor and weapons, his bare-handed strength is probably at the upper-middle level of an Elder Dragon.

He was unable to break through the encirclement of three ancient dragons that worked together in perfect harmony.

Even if a sheep comes, it has to be guarded against, right?

Of course, that's all.

It's equally impossible for the opposing side to break through his defenses and capture him in a short time.

As for the twin swords...

It was almost broken by Salamence's Dragon Pulse as soon as it was taken out, which gave Shin-chan, who was doing her best to assist, quite a fright.

Brainwaves kept surging through my mind.

There was no other way but to put it away.

Anyway, in this battle, the dual swords are the same as the new leaf cat.

It's not very useful (crossed out).

Ok?

Just as he was thinking about how to break through, Oreki suddenly felt the pressure decrease and the three Pokémon's offensive slowed down significantly.

Taking a chance, he tilted his head and looked at J in the distance.

He immediately burst into laughter.

His face was ashen, his expression hesitant, and his eyes darting around.

"Hey, did you get the news that Alliance reinforcements are coming?"

Oreki loudmouth.

"I am you, and I'm not leaving! Let the League see the backbone of J, the Pokémon Hunter Leader of the Sinnoh region!"

Upon hearing this, J clenched his fists instantly, and veins bulged on his forehead.

"You little brat, just you wait, don't let me catch you in the act."

"Really? You can't even seize this opportunity today, what about the future?"

Clearly sensing the other party's intention to retreat, Oreki became even more composed and began to analyze the situation logically and clearly.

"Tsk, as expected of the most ruthless hunter leader in Sinnoh. Just to capture me, his subordinates betrayed him without hesitation?"

He had already realized it during the battle.

It was obvious that Zhu Lan was using a diversionary tactic; otherwise, how could J have arrived so soon after she left?

I just don't know if Zhu Lan has captured those two hunters.

If they get caught, J will really suffer a huge loss this time.

"..."

J opened his mouth but hesitated for two or three seconds without making a sound.

She had no rebuttal.

Even with two A-rank hunters abandoned in the Sinnoh region, they still couldn't catch the other, let alone wait for the other to return to Hoenn.

Being unfamiliar with the place and its people, there was nothing we could do.

Suddenly, it occurred to her.

Would it have been better to wait until the enemy boarded their plane back to Hoenn and then look for an opportunity to attack them over the ocean?

But there are no "what ifs" in life.

After this battle, even if Chikuran doesn't personally escort Oreki back to Hoenn, she will most likely send extra people.

I'm afraid I'll end up walking into a trap!

J realized he was truly doomed this time.

But is it really my fault?

I'm a victim too, you idiot!

Who would have thought that a bookworm could be such a good fighter!

When I get back this time, I must capture a few of those damned scientists who can develop even more advanced weapons.

At the very least, you need to have the ability to protect yourself.

She was still shaken by the fact that she had almost been defeated by Kirlia in one move.

The professional trainers I've encountered in the league before, including Cynthia, never went for the kill right away.

"withdraw!"

After analyzing the situation, J decisively chose to evacuate, unwilling to stay for even a second longer.

If she doesn't leave now, once the league arrives with reinforcements, she will face a combined attack from two gym leaders, a world champion, and a champion.

By then, she probably won't even have the right to "cut off her own arm."

As soon as he finished speaking, Drapion and Weavile retreated at top speed, while Salamence closed in on Oreki once again.

The dragon-attribute energy instantly surged again, and a massive dragon claw materialized.

Oreki ignored the bluff and simply waved his hand.

"Go ahead, go ahead, I won't stop you."

He knew he couldn't stop J's retreat until reinforcements from the league arrived.

After all, the other side isn't stupid; they must have left themselves ample time to retreat, otherwise it would be no different from suicide.

Most importantly, the two smaller ones behind them were in very poor condition, and it would be too much of a strain for them to rashly join the battle of the Elite Four Pokémon.

If they insist on continuing the fight, they will be the first to fall.

That would be a losing proposition.

As expected, getting revenge will have to wait until the Pokémon are properly bred.

Judging from the strength Hunter J has shown so far, even if he were given a full set of equipment, he might still not be able to capture the opponent.

because…

He can't fly either!

Groudon gave itself a thumbs up.

Fortunately.

Oreki not only knows the plot, but also understands human nature.

J, who is used to accumulating wealth and living a lavish lifestyle, will absolutely not simply disappear without a trace.

Even if she were willing, the Galaxy team probably wouldn't agree.

just wait.

Oreki turned and walked towards the two of them, Nagisa and Nagisa.

He has more important things to do.

"roar??"

Originally, Salamence thought the other party was bluffing, but it actually left?

Honestly, after fighting to this point, its feelings were also—what kind of monster is the trainer going to catch and take back to base?

Oh well, this is fine too.

boom!!

With a casual flick of his wrist, he unleashed the energy from his dragon claw onto the ground. Salamence flapped its blood-red wings, flew back to J's side, picked up the trainer who was on the verge of exploding, and headed straight for the battleship overhead.

Seeing this, the man in red calmly recalled his Pokémon and stepped onto Talonflame to prepare for retreat.

however.

Did I let you leave?

A cold voice suddenly rang in my ears.

Before he could react, he was struck hard in the abdomen.

"Well!!"

The man in red immediately curled up like an iron-armed shrimp.

"If you're hungry, go downstairs and eat."

Oreki grabbed the eagle's wing and slammed it to the ground along with the man in red.

It's exactly the same as the Salamence we just saw.

What's that saying again? One trick is all you need to succeed!

That's right.

This is the important thing that Oreki needs to do.

Instead of wasting time blocking J for a few dozen seconds, it's better to keep this guy who set the forest on fire completely at bay.

If you want to fight, then fight; if you want to fight in the wild, then fight in the wild.

Intentionally burning down forests and harming innocent people in order to restrict vegetable seeds and Officer Jenny is wrong of you.

"Damn it!"

The man in red, who had fallen heavily to the ground, hurriedly reached for his waist, only to find nothing.

He suddenly looked up.

Oreki shook the Poké Ball Belt in his hand.

"Are you looking for this?"

After a pause, the man in red shouted, "Flame Breath!"

pity.

The scene I imagined of my Pokémon emerging from its Poké Ball to save me did not happen.

"I didn't break the switch," Oreki said, adding insult to injury. "Looks like your Pokémon doesn't want to save you."

How could this happen...

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of J about to enter the warship in the air, and the man in red seemed to have grasped at the last straw.

"Chief, save me!!"

Upon hearing this, J merely glanced at it indifferently before looking away.

Save you?

Who's going to save me now?!

The ship's doors closed, the warship started its engines, and slowly disappeared into the clouds.

Upon seeing this.

The man in red screamed in despair, "You cold-blooded old woman, I'll be waiting for you in prison!!"

"Is it over...?"

It was only then that Cai Zhong and the other person recovered from their shock.

Even though they had already witnessed Oreki's strength, they couldn't help but be stunned by this scene that was so violently aesthetic.

Cai Zhong subconsciously pinched his thigh.

"pain…"

Looking down, I saw that my shorts had been burned with a big hole, and my once fair thighs were now a bright red mess.

"hiss!!"

It would have been better if they hadn't discovered it.

Upon discovery, a searing pain shot straight to the brain, causing the vegetable seed to stagger.

A few meters away, Officer Jenny noticed the anomaly and quickly ran over, but it was clearly too late.

The vegetable seeds were about to fall to the ground.

Kirlia appeared out of nowhere, panting heavily, and reached out her small hand to support her.

"Chiru".

"Ah! Thank you, Kirlia, you've worked hard too."

Cai Zhong patted Kirullian's head tenderly.

Kirlian silently shook her head and looked at Oreki, who was giving the man in red physical therapy to help him fall asleep.

"It's clearly him who's working the hardest."

far away.

Oreki's raised fist suddenly stopped.

I replied helplessly in my mind.

"Then you'd better hurry up and grow up..."

Huh? It doesn't hurt?

The man in red, who felt no pain, opened his eyes again.

Then--

Say goodnight to this world!

boom! !

The man in red fell into a deep sleep.

"call!"

Relieved, Oreki habitually bent down to begin "looting the corpse," but suddenly remembered Officer Jenny in the distance...

Is it a bit much to do this in front of the police?

After hesitating for a moment, he looked up and revealed an innocent smile.

"Miss Officer Jenny, could you please turn around?"
