Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

A smile appeared on Xia Yan's face, and he gradually showed signs of being assimilated by Gastly.

Casey quietly distanced herself from them.

It heard the tactics we just discussed.

All I can say is...

Very dog-like.

Chapter Ninety-Three: You Understand Me!

"Kou Jie!"

Gastly roared as it flew out of the tunnel, seemingly full of imposing presence, displaying an air of "invincibility."

They crossed the area where Arbok and Misdreavus were entangled and headed towards Tameki's location.

"Ok?"

Upon seeing Gastly, Tame frowned and looked at Kiku.

Another Ghost-type Pokémon from Akiko?

Do you still have the capacity to command even more spirits?

However, they discovered that Kikuko's attention had not shifted at all; she was simply focused on her six main battle Pokémon.

Then.

He saw a figure moving in the tunnel behind Kikuko, its appearance indistinct, but Gastly had definitely come from there.

Kikuko's helper?

Tamechi's face darkened.

He has already paid such a high price, even risking his own life, and it seems that the Shiny Charizard is about to break free from Agatha's restraints and control. If another powerful person interferes with him at this moment, it will be really troublesome.

Seeing Tame's darkening face, Gastly was very satisfied.

"Kou Jie!"

Seemingly to demonstrate its power, Gastly swung its claws fiercely at a small, protruding rock beside it.

boom!

The rock shattered instantly.

However, it wasn't broken into pieces so cleanly and completely.

Snapped!

A faint sound of someone rubbing their forehead came from the tunnel not far away.

Gastly's expression also froze.

"...Kid!"

Tame was taken aback by Gastly's stance, and after a slight hesitation, she said:

"Fire-breathing camel, spraying flames."

call--

White smoke billowed from the two volcano-like humps on the fire-breathing camel's back, and then it opened its mouth, unleashing a scorching fireball toward Gastly.

"Kou Jie!"

Gastly dodged in a panic, but the Flame Splash was an area-of-effect attack, and it was still hit, suffering considerable damage.

However, Gastly was very tenacious and stood up, angrily rebuking Camerupt for its sneak attack.

"Heh—" Tamechi chuckled lightly, "So it's a 'newbie' in charge."

Then Gastly beckoned to Cameroon with a finger in an extremely provocative manner, sticking out its tongue in a mocking way.

The provocation worked on the fire-breathing camel, and anger flashed in its eyes.

But the next second, a hand landed on the fire-breathing camel's back.

"calm."

As Tamechi spoke, the fire-breathing camel exhaled white breath from its nose, appearing very angry, but it suppressed its anger and did not rush out on its own initiative.

Tamechi believed that Gastly was trying to lure Camerupt away, leaving him vulnerable in his human body without the protection of the elves.

But this also gave Gastly the opportunity to get close to him.

Haunter chuckled and disappeared into the shadows, quickly approaching Tamechi.

However, its movements were all within Tamechi's sight.

soon.

Gastly, appearing in a fleeting moment, approaches Tamechi's shadow.

But in that instant, Tamechi's eyes flashed, and he said coldly:

"Fire-breathing camel, stomp!"

Because of Gastly's provocation, Camerupt, which had been suppressing its anger, heard the command, flames rose from its back, and it raised its front legs and stomped hard in the direction of Gastly's shadow.

The fire-breathing camel's anger fueled its fury, causing it to stomp its feet with even greater force.

To its surprise, before it could even fully stomp down, Gastly suddenly popped its head out of the shadows, its face full of mockery.

Tamechi was startled and immediately sensed that something was wrong.

A beam of energy emanated from the Fire-Breathing Camel's body and flowed into itself, dividing the energy of the two elves equally.

Gastly had already endured Camerupt's fiery spray attack, not only to show weakness, but also for this moment.

'Share the pain? Releasing it too early. If we wait until the fire-breathing camel's attack lands before sharing the pain, it will cause the greatest damage to the fire-breathing camel.' Seeing this, Tamechi felt a little relieved.

I've lowered my opinion of the trainer's ability to command this Gastly.

He was careful enough not to underestimate Gastly just because it appeared weak.

As it turns out, this Gastly was not weak at all; the weak one was the person who commanded it.

however.

While Tamechi lowered his guard, Gastly's actions did not stop.

A large amount of black energy emerged from its body, and dense evil energy condensed and took shape in front of it.

Fraud!

Deception: Using the opponent's power to attack in one's place; the higher the opponent's attack, the greater the damage!

boom! !

The powerful stomp landed, but the fire-breathing camel first felt an extremely strong reaction force erupt from its foot, sending it flying.

"Roar!!"

At the same time, Gastly's hands left the shadows, and two black spheres appeared in its hands. One slammed into Camerupt in mid-air, and the other slammed into Tamechi.

boom!!

The Shadow Ball dealt the final blow, and the Fire Camel was rendered unable to fight before it even hit the ground.

Before the other Shadow Ball could even touch Tameqi, a figure shot towards them, and a verdant barrier blocked the attack—it was Tameqi's Spoon Serpent!

After securing the Shadow Ball, Snake lashed out with its tail at Gastly.

However, Gastly burrowed directly into the shadows, hesitated for a moment, and then quickly retreated.

Because, Xia Yan's voice echoed in its consciousness.

"retreat!"

Tactical success!

After the tactical verification just now, Gastly acknowledges Xia Yan's abilities.

Since he said to retreat, then let's retreat.

but.

Gastly is doing well now that it's gone, but Tamechi's situation isn't so optimistic.

To save him, the Scyther retreated despite Arbok's attacks, sustaining considerable injuries in the process.

The large wolfhound on the other side fared even worse, as Kikuko seized the opportunity to command Arbok to defeat it directly.

Suddenly, the balance scales tilted.

As Kikuko seized the opportunity, she glanced sideways at Natsuhiko, who was still hiding in the tunnel, with some surprise.

They actually managed to kill Tamechi's fire-breathing camel by trickery?

Gastly's strength is very important to this outcome, or rather, its strength is the fundamental factor.

Kikuko was well aware of the power of her Gastly, otherwise she wouldn't have used it to protect Natsuhiko's safety.

Since she has conscripted Xia Yan and said she would protect him, how can she guarantee his safety? Where does that leave the Four Heavenly Kings' reputation?

She had no doubt about Gastly's strength, and Agatha was also certain that if she commanded Gastly, she could defeat Camerupt.

The problem is, she's not the one in command.

She no longer had the energy to focus on commanding Gastly; the Ghost Legion's deployment had consumed a great deal of her attention.

But Xia Yan, this "new trainer," actually did it!

It's still using the "shared fate" method of exchanging fates.

They were truly defeated by tactics!

Or rather, he was killed by a sneak attack...

Moreover, in Kikuko's opinion, Gastly and Natsuhiko have a high compatibility, and they performed well even though it was only their first time cooperating as commanders.

She said Gastly was well-behaved, but that was just talk.

Kikuko, the spirit, knew herself best; no one but her would obediently listen to her.
