Elf: Make the Rockets Great Again

The gangster crocodile patted his chest confidently, then gave a thumbs up, indicating that the small scene was no problem.

Due to the existence of the mysterious altar, the Gangster Crocodile absorbed a lot of "ground gems" during its growth.

Therefore, it not only learns ground-attribute skills quickly, but also has a keener perception of ground-attribute energy than other elves of the same type.

After some investigation, it found that the hidden Rhododendron was of similar level to itself, and both seemed to have just entered the "excellent level".

However, since we have attribute restraint and can take the initiative, there is no reason to let this big fish go.

The Rumble Stone was probably in a dormant state, and its energy perception was far inferior to that of the Hun Crocodile, so it was completely unaware of the threat.

Although the gangster crocodile usually has a bad temper, his fighting skills are not bad and he does not attack from a long distance.

It was seen lying down carefully, crawling forward on all fours like the black-eyed crocodile before its evolution.

It lurks carefully on the surrounding protruding rocks, like a crocodile in the water in a documentary, approaching its prey little by little.

Thirty meters, twenty meters... As the crocodile got closer, its steps and movements became more cautious and slow.

Speaking of which, elves like the Hunhun Crocodile originally live in the desert.

When hunting, they bury their bodies in the sand, lurk carefully, and then deliver a fatal blow when they get close to their opponent.

Although we are not in a desert environment now, the racial talents in our blood are still deeply preserved.

When it was about ten meters away from the Rumbling Stone, it carefully dug its front paws into the sand in front of it, and then a powerful momentum and energy suddenly burst out, like an arrow that had been charging for a long time and finally shot out.

Longlongshi was awakened by the sudden shock, but he was already doomed.

The ochre-colored ground attribute energy was transmitted to the ground along the claws of the gangster crocodile, and then quickly flowed to the feet of Longlong Stone, instantly transforming the rocky ground under his feet into a sand pool.

"Quicksand Hell!"

This is a ground-attribute move that creates a violently agitated area of ​​sand at the target.

While trapping the victim and preventing them from escaping, it can also cause continuous damage.

And Rhydon also has rock attributes, so it is also restrained by ground-attribute skills.

But because its entire body is made of hard rock, it has super strong defense and can barely hold on for a while.

But because of this, the already extremely heavy Rumble Stone found it even more difficult to escape the "quicksand abyss", and its boulder-like body sank deeper and deeper into it.

In a hurry, it wanted to use "Heavy Collapse" to shatter the quicksand under its feet.

However, they discovered that the compact mountain had turned into quicksand, and the energy fluctuations of the ground system could not spread at all, let alone break through the sand and escape.

In addition, the Gangster Crocodile would not just sit there and wait. Just when Longlong Stone was at a loss, the Gangster Crocodile was already in front of his body, locking onto it with a pair of dark and domineering eyes.

The next moment, two blue lights appeared on Longlongshi's body, and he immediately felt that his condition had become worse.

This is because the Crocodile activated the "Staring" skill the first time they looked at each other, which weakened its attack by the "Intimidation" feature while also weakening its defense, so it felt weak as if its body was hollowed out.

A sense of crisis of death surged into Rhydon's heart, but as a stone that had grown all the way from a weak little Geodude, it was naturally not one to sit and wait for death!

However, he endured the pain that kept coming from his body, condensed a rock the size of a washbasin on his head, and with a wave of his hand, shot it towards the gangster crocodile.

Facing the oncoming rock, the Hunhun Crocodile did not dodge, but opened its mouth and condensed a mouthful of dark energy.

Looking closely, one can see that threads of evil energy are surging from each of the sharp teeth.

"Touch~~"

With one bite, the rock that the Longlong Stone had shot out with great difficulty was easily shattered into pieces.

When Lu Ming saw this, he showed a very pleased expression. It seemed that after digesting the two "Evil Gems", the evil attribute energy of the Gangster Crocodile also increased.

Judging from the power of the "bite" attack just now, it is obviously stronger than the battle against Sandshrew last night.

Seeing that the "falling rocks" attack was ineffective, Longlongshi, who had little physical strength left, became a little anxious. He curled up his body, and the rocky surface of his body turned silver-white, and then a yellow light appeared all over his body.

"Become round!"

This was originally an ordinary amplification move that could increase one's own defense by one level.

However, if used together with a certain skill, it will have unexpected effects.

As expected, a powerful rock-attribute energy surged out, and Longlong Stone was covered with a layer of stone-brown light.

Wrapped in the stone-brown light, the Rumbling Stone actually rolled rapidly on the spot, its speed getting faster and faster, pushing it out of the sand and shooting towards the Gangster Crocodile like a cannonball!

...............

Chapter 6-Victory

"scroll!"

The stone-brown light ball that Longlong turned into petrified material spun violently and rushed towards the Hunhun Crocodile.

The latter's eyes, like sunglasses, condensed, and then a layer of black energy wrapped around his claws at the same time, and he leaped up to meet the attack.

"Touch~~"

The two suddenly collided in mid-air, and the skills of "Roll" and "Malicious Pursuit" formed stone-brown and black energy waves, which expanded and spread outward violently from the center of the collision like lightning and sparks.

Finally, after a moment of stalemate, the two simultaneously released their force and retreated.

Longlongshi's heavy body was knocked back more than ten meters, until with a loud "boom", it knocked down a protruding rock and buried its entire body in it.

The crocodile flipped backwards and landed on the ground, digging its claws into the ground and plowing two traces. It retreated four or five meters and then stopped.

In this attack, the two seemed to be evenly matched, and even the thinner Crocodile had the upper hand.

This is because the Rumble Stone is affected by "Intimidation" and its attack power is still weakened.

However, the collapsed rock ruins suddenly exploded, and the stone-brown sphere transformed from the Rumbling Stone rushed over again, emitting an even more astonishing aura.

This is because the power of the "Roll" skill will continue to increase with continuous use. If you look at the values ​​in the game, it can be stacked from thirty to as much as four hundred and eighty.

Not only that, just before using "rolling", Rhythm also used "rounding" once!

In addition to enhancing defense, this move can also double the power of "Roll" in the initial stage.

In this way, the final power value will reach a terrifying nine hundred and sixty!

The power of this attack alone is enough to reach the level of a big move like "Flash Charge" or "Sacrifice Charge".

"Thug Crocodile, you must not take this attack head-on. Dodge it first, and then use "digging holes" to avoid its sharp edge!" Lu Ming reminded at the critical moment.

After saying that, the gangster crocodile swung its thick and long tail and slammed it hard on the mountain. The reaction force made it leap up.

The next moment after it jumped up, the stone-brown sphere that Longlong had turned into passed through from below and almost hit it.

The "rolling" skill cannot be interrupted. Longlongshi controlled the rolling body to turn an arc and rushed forward at a higher speed.

However, the crocodile would not give it this opportunity. After landing, it quickly used the "digging" skill and drilled into the ground in an instant.

In fact, the "Digging" skill is different from the digging behavior of ordinary elves. It is a relatively difficult move to learn and requires a very high quality of the ground attributes.

It is also because the gangster crocodile has absorbed a lot of "ground gems" since he was a child, and his affinity for ground attributes is very strong, so he was able to comprehend it on his own not long ago.

Since the Rumble Stone lost its target, its "rolling" momentum was interrupted, and the accumulated value was reset to zero as it stopped rotating.

Suddenly, Longlongshi roared angrily towards the sky, then looked at Lu Ming beside him, murderous intent in his eyes.

He immediately activated rock energy and condensed rock in front of his chest, intending to take the opportunity to kill the damn trainer with "falling rocks".

"It's now!"

As Lu Ming roared, the ground under Longlongshi's feet quickly loosened, and before the latter could react, the gangster crocodile broke out of the ground.

The ground attribute energy brought by "digging" wrapped around the claws and hit Longlong Stone hard, taking away its last physical strength.

Not far from its chest, the ochre-colored energy body that had not yet condensed into a shape also dissipated with the mountain wind after it fell.

"Huh~~, finally solved it. I didn't expect that this wild Rhodon also mastered the "rounding" and "rolling" combination skills. It is more difficult to deal with than expected. Fortunately, I attacked it with a sneak attack and drained most of its physical strength.

However, this also reminds us that even when fighting against Digger, it still takes all our strength. We still can't underestimate any wild Pokémon in the future! "

The combination of "rounding" and "rolling" was developed by humans and is usually used by Pokémon under the command of their trainers.

But nothing is absolute. Wild Pokémon fight for survival in the wild and gain experience in constant battles. There are always smart ones who can perceive the mutual relationship between moves, just like this Rhydon.

"Touch~~"

As the lights on the red and white ball went out, Lu Ming quickly ran over and locked the Poké Ball immediately.

It had no intention of taming the Rhodon, and the Hunhun Crocodile even treated it as a sacrificial consumable. However, now was not the time to enter the desert space, so it could only put it into the ball first.

After locking the ball, Lu Ming held it in his hand and examined it for a while, sighing as if he were in another world, and said:

“Oh~, after sacrificing this Rumble Stone, we’ll be able to get another mid-grade gem.

The value of this one vote alone is almost equivalent to the effort we put in over the past six months."

"Skull~~"

The gangster crocodile wanted to make further efforts and urged Lu Ming to continue exploring.

.........

What Lu Ming didn't know was that shortly after he left, two men who came together appeared at the place where he had originally fought with Longlongshi.

They were wearing black uniforms with a capital red "R" painted on them. Even ordinary people who were not trainers would recognize that these two were official members of Team Rocket.

Beside the two of them, there was a Golbat and a Golbat respectively!

"Eh~, how could that be? I saw an "Excellent" Rhydon living here before. It shouldn't be leaving for a while."

The Golbat trainer first uttered a sigh, then looked at the messy surroundings and frowned.

"What a damn bad luck! I finally found an "Excellent Grade" Pokémon outside of Yuejian Mountain, but someone else got there first. It was all for nothing!"

"Ah~, that's right. Nowadays, there are more people than resources, and the "excellent-level" elves in the outer areas of Yuejian Mountain are becoming increasingly rare.

Although there are many powerful elves deep in the mountains, it is too dangerous. If we go too deep, we will be devoured by those monsters without a trace left."

Trainer Garagara then changed the subject, saying, "But having said that, even if someone else got there first, I did go with you after all, so I still have to give you some hard work compensation!"

"Hmph, you shifty fellow are so ignorant. How difficult is it to encounter a lone "Excellent-level" elf in the outer mountains nowadays?

Yet, I shared the news with you the moment I met you. Not only did you not appreciate my kindness, but you actually took advantage of me at this moment to kick me when I was down."

Seeing that Zubat's trainer was really angry, another person touched the head of Garagara beside him and continued:

"Hmm~, the reason you didn't eat this Rumblestone by yourself earlier was because Zubat was restrained by it, and you wanted to take advantage of my Garagara's ground attribute!
