Elf: Seriously? You only get a cheat code when you're about to die?

Chapter 263 Glaceon

The Pokémon that came to rescue Salamence was a pale blue fox-type Pokémon, one of Eevee's many evolutions, Glaceon.

After forcing everyone back, Glaceon didn't make any more moves, because it knew very well that it couldn't handle these people.

However, the men in red weren't about to let a cooked duck fly away. Their leader called out, "Blackhound!"

With a roar, Houndoom leaped forward and spat a crimson pillar of fire at Glaceon, the rolling flames engulfing the creature.

Of course, Glaceon wouldn't sit idly by and wait to die. It opened its mouth, and a torrent of blizzard erupted from it.

It's a blizzard!

The frigid wind and snow intertwined with the crimson flames, but the stalemate lasted for less than 10 seconds before the flames completely suppressed the wind and snow.

Upon seeing this, Glaceon immediately wanted to jump away, but when it remembered that Salamence was right behind it, it stopped in its tracks.

In that moment of hesitation, the raging flames instantly engulfed it.

However, the flames lasted only a short while before being extinguished by the chilling air.

Glaceon slowly emerged from the cold air, its entire body charred black, its expression contorted with pain.

Even so, it remained steadfast in blocking Salamence's path.

"Heh~" The leader sneered and continued to command Houndoom, "Houndoom, Flamethrower!"

As he finished speaking, Houndoom roared and unleashed a massive, imposing flame that crashed down on Glaceon's head.

Seeing this, Glaceon quickly unleashed Blizzard again to fight back.

Unfortunately, due to its severe injuries and lack of strength, the blizzard it unleashed had limited power and was defeated by the Great Flame Burst in a single exchange.

boom!!!

With a loud bang, Glaceon was once again engulfed in flames.

When the flames subsided, Glaceon lay on the ground, barely alive. It tried to stand up by supporting itself on its limbs, but it couldn't muster any strength at all.

Seeing this, the leader decided to deliver the final blow to Glaceon, so he said to Houndoom, "Houndoom, Flamethrower!"

Immediately, a pillar of fire swept towards Eevee and the Salamence behind it.

As the pillar of fire drew ever closer, Glaceon closed its eyes in despair.

However, after waiting for a while, it did not feel the flames engulf it, and then an explosion rang out in the cave.

Glaceon opened its eyes and saw a handsome blond youth standing at the entrance of the cave, with a Latios floating in front of him.

The person who came was none other than An Jie.

He asked the wild Pokémon in the End Cave for a long time before finally finding this place. When he came in, he saw the defeated Glaceon and Salamence lying behind Glaceon.

He also recognized the group that attacked Salamence and Glaceon; who else could they be but Team Flare?

"Who are you?" The leader of Team Flame squinted at Anja.

Anjie replied, "The hammer of justice is specifically for punishing lawbreakers!"

Upon hearing this, the leader felt he had been fooled and immediately angrily ordered Super Black Luluga to attack Ange.

"Houndoom, Dark Pulse!"

Seeing this, Ange also commanded Latios, "Latios, Dragon Pulse!"

The two wave-type moves met in the air, but how could Houndoom be a match for Latios? The Dark Pulse was instantly shattered, and the Dragon Pulse continued to strike Houndoom with undiminished power.

"Awoo~~" With a mournful howl, Mega Houndoom was knocked to the ground, lost consciousness, and exited its Mega Evolution form.

This leader was one of the elite officers of Team Flare. He originally thought that his Houndoom could last a long time against Latios, just like it did against Salamence.

But the ideal is beautiful, while the reality is harsh; Houndoom was instantly defeated.

He angrily shouted at his men, "What are you all standing there for? Beat them! Beat them hard!"

"Yes, sir!"

So the subordinates took out Poké Balls, and with flashes of red light, one Pokémon after another appeared outside.

Dragon Scorpion, Spoon Snake, Sable Eye, Tank Skunk, Commander of the Cleaver, Ariados...

Angel and Latios were instantly surrounded.

At the command of Team Flare, the Pokémon launched their attack simultaneously.

Ange remained unfazed and calmly addressed Latios, "Latios, Air Blade!"

As Ange finished speaking, Latios's body surged with energy, and then countless wind blades burst forth from its body, shooting out like flying knives.

With a series of screams, all of the opponent's Pokémon collapsed to the ground.

The leader looked shocked. Where did such a formidable person suddenly come from?

Realizing the disparity in strength, the leader decisively decided to retreat; otherwise, they would be wiped out.

"Walk!"

Upon hearing this, the other Team Flare members pulled out Poké Balls to retrieve their Pokémon and then turned to run away.

"Trying to leave?" Ange sneered. "Latios!"

Upon hearing his call, Latios immediately understood, and its eyes lit up with a dazzling purple light.

The escaped Team Flare members suddenly found themselves unable to move. Then they felt as if they had been hit in the head, and their bodies went limp and they collapsed to the ground.

Seeing that Team Flare had been completely defeated, Angel walked quickly to Glaceon and Salamence.

Ice Eevee looked at Angel, about to say something, but fainted due to its severe injuries.

Anjie quickly checked its body and found that its injuries were quite serious. He then took out medicine to treat its injuries.

Latios also stepped forward to cast Healing Wave on Eevee.

After treating Glaceon's injuries, Angela went to check on Salamence's body.

What puzzled him was that although Salamence's injuries were not severe enough to cause it to faint, it could not be woken up no matter what.

Anjie checked the Salamence's body again and again, but he wasn't a doctor and couldn't detect anything wrong with it.

Left with no other choice, he decided to take the Salamence back to Baike City for treatment.

So he released Latias, letting it use its psychic powers to take the Team Flare members with it, while he himself used a Poké Ball to capture Glaceon and Salamence.

Although Latios can carry Glaceon and Salamence, Salamence is huge and Glaceon is not small either. Using psychic powers to carry them would definitely make them uncomfortable.

Besides, they were both injured.

So it's more convenient to put them in a Poké Ball, and then release them later.

However, before leaving, Ange confiscated the Key Stone from the leader and the Mega Stone from Houndoom.

It would be such a shame to miss out on something this good!

And so, about half an hour later, Anjie returned to Baike City.

He first took the Team Flare members to the police station, briefly explained the situation to Officer Jenny, and then quickly took Glaceon and Salamence to the Pokémon Center.

Upon seeing the two injured Pokémon, Nurse Joy immediately began to treat them.

After a long while, Miss Joy came out of the examination room, walked up to Angie, and said:

"Glass Eevee is alright now. Although it was seriously injured, it's all superficial wounds and will recover quickly."

Anjie breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, then asked, "What about the Salamence?"

When Salamence was mentioned, Miss Joy's brows furrowed tightly.

"The Salamence's injuries aren't too serious. The problem is that it seems to have been injected with some kind of drug. I haven't been able to analyze the drug's components yet, so it's not advisable to treat it immediately."

Anjie looked worried upon hearing this, "Won't the Salamence be in mortal danger?"

Miss Joy said, "No, according to the test results, Salamence was only injected with a drug that puts Pokémon to sleep, and it will not endanger its life."

"That's good!" Anjie breathed a sigh of relief.

Miss Joy continued, "You can go check on Glaceon first, while I research the ingredients of that potion and try to get results as soon as possible."

Angie thanked her gratefully, "Thank you for your hard work, Miss Joey."

Miss Joey waved her hand and said, "It's nothing, it's all part of my job."

After Miss Joy left, Ange arrived at Grimer's hospital room. As soon as he got to the door, he saw through the glass window that Grimer was struggling to jump off the bed.

He quickly pushed the door open and entered. "Glass Eevee, your injuries haven't healed yet, don't move around unnecessarily."

The Ice Eevee immediately recognized Angel as the one who saved them, and looked at him with gratitude.

However, it did not trust Anjie because of this, and remained vigilant.

There was no other way; they had just been attacked by humans, and Lord Zygarde had been captured, so they immediately believed that humans were simply impossible.

Seeing that Eevee didn't reject him, Ange breathed a sigh of relief and went over to carry Eevee back to the bed.

This Ice Eevee is much larger than a regular Eevee, far exceeding the size of Angel's Flareon, Jolteon, and Vaporeon; it's almost the same size as his calf.

Anjie thought to herself: It's developing well, but the feel of holding it isn't quite right.

Glaceon's Frostforged fur is very prickly, comparable to Jolteon's.

"Gray~Gray~" Glaceon, who had settled back onto the bed, asked about Salamence's condition.

Anjie replied, "You don't need to worry about the Flying Dragon. It's fine. Although it's still unconscious, with Miss Joey around, it will definitely wake up soon."

"Gray~" Hearing that Salamence was still unconscious, Glaceon couldn't help but show a worried look on its face.

Then Angel asked, "Are you and Salamence both Pokémon that live with Zygarde?"

Upon hearing this, Ice Eevee looked surprised, its big eyes seeming to say: How did you know?

Anja explained with a smile, "My name is Anja. I'm friends with Zygarde and I also know Salamence."

Zygard (with a smug look): Nonsense, I never admitted to that!

Upon hearing Angel's name, Glaceon's wariness vanished instantly.

"Grey~" You're Angie?

Anjie asked in surprise, "You know me?"

"Gray~ Gray~" Glaceon nodded repeatedly, because ever since Lord Zygarde returned from his last trip, he would often mention this name.

Although Zygarde always says things like "I'm just a mere human," he sometimes can't help but mutter to himself, "I really want to eat Ange's cooking."

Ice Eevee could tell that Lord Zygarde must really like the person named "Ange".

Hearing Eevee's story, Angel was quite surprised, never expecting that Zygarde would mention him so often.

Z2 (enraged): Glaceon, why do you blurt out everything? Wait till I get back, I'll teach you a lesson!

Ange asked, "Where's Zygarde? I came specifically to see it, why isn't it here?"

Upon hearing this, Glaceon lowered its eyes.

"Gray~ Gray~" Lord Zygarde has been captured!

Upon hearing this, An Jie thought to himself: Just as I expected!

He learned from Glaceon that shortly after Z2 returned to the End Cave from Desert City, it was attacked by a group of people who were wearing the same clothes as the people who attacked Glaceon and its companions today.

Needless to say, it's Team Flare again.

Normally, Team Flare wouldn't have been able to handle Z2, but something they did in the Terminator Cavern caused Z2 to be unable to summon other cells to provide support, thus greatly reducing its strength.

After a fierce battle, Z2 was captured.

At the time, Salamence was away on business and not at home, so Z2 only had Glaceon by its side.

However, Eevee was too weak and was quickly defeated, only able to watch helplessly as Z2 was taken away.

By the time the Salamence returned, it was too late.

However, Team Flare has recently returned to the End Caverns frequently, this time with the aim of capturing Salamence.

Salamence is very strong; Team Flare was initially unable to defeat it, which is why they set up a trap today.

Glaceon overheard their conversation and learned that Team Flare wanted to control Z2's consciousness through technology, but Z2's will was too strong and they couldn't do anything about it, so they came up with a bad idea.

After Z2 settled in the End Cave, it lived with Salamence and thus developed a deep bond with it.

Glaceon was added later.

Therefore, Team Flare wanted to capture Salamence and then use it to threaten Z2, making it give up resistance or destroying Z2's tenacious will.

After listening to Eevee's words, Angel asked, "Do you know where Zygarde was taken?"

Upon hearing this, Glaceon shook its head in disappointment.

If it had known, it would have gone with the Salamence to rescue Lord Zygarde long ago.

"Don't you know...?" Angie thought to herself: "It seems the plan to help rescue Zygarde is not going to work out."

Hopefully, Steven and the others can find out about Team Flare as soon as possible and try to stop all the conspiracies before Fladali causes any major trouble, and rescue Z2.

Just as Ange and Glaceon were chatting, Nurse Joy's assistant, Jigglypuff, appeared outside the door.

"Plop~" It gently knocked on the door.

After opening the door, Anjie asked, "What's wrong, Fatty? Is something the matter?"

Fat Dodg answered, "Plop~ Plop~" Mr. Anjie, someone is looking for you outside.

Someone's looking for me? An Jie was taken aback. Who? Could it be Ms. Ge Jihua? Apart from Ms. Ge Jihua, he didn't seem to know anyone else in Bai Ke City.

So he turned to Glaceon and said, "Glaceon, you rest well, I'll be right back."

"Gray~" Glaceon nodded gently.

With a sense of doubt, Anja followed Jigglypuff into the Pokémon Center lobby.

When he saw the person's true face, he couldn't help but show surprise.
