Good morning, noon and night, hello, trainer

"Oh no! Quickly release all the Lightning Rod Pokémon!"

What I didn’t expect was that the remnants of Team Rocket still had a backup plan!

The horned goldfish, the armored rhinoceros, and the caracalla were all released.

The characteristics of the lightning rod shared the load for the lightning rod, which actually eased the load all at once and successfully alleviated the current caused by the combined attack of the Zapdos and the Thunder Drum.

The remnants of Team Rocket have gone to such lengths to capture the Thunder Drum.

Kanto Region: Chapter 125: Lightning and Divine Bird

This unknown black technology lightning rod is combined with a large number of Pokémon with lightning rod characteristics.

In their plan to capture Thunderbolt, the remnants of Team Rocket have made sufficient preparations to counter Thunderbolt's electric-attribute moves.

We even made a backup plan for the possibility of lightning rod load.

It can be seen that they really want to catch the thunder drum.

"But, you haven't made any preparations for a second Legend to burst onto the battlefield!"

"Zapdos! Use Tail Wind!"

"—!"

The legendary divine bird flaps its wings to control the direction of airflow.

Although this move has no lethality, the commander of the remaining members of Team Rocket instinctively sensed that something was wrong!

"Quick! Stop it!"

The flying troops responsible for depleting the strength of the Thunder Drum quickly assembled.

Just like when a tornado is created to offset the Thunderbolt, the power of many ordinary Pokémon is combined and they work together to form a huge airflow. We must deal with Zapdos in the same way we dealt with Thunderbolt!

There are over a hundred flying Pokémon densely packed together, and the airflow they create is indeed powerful.

Las, riding on the Zapdos, could intuitively feel that the tailwind he created was indeed being suppressed back little by little.

but!

"It's your turn! Thunder drum!"

"Roar!--"

The thunder drum roars to the sky!

The spiral air currents created waves that soared into the sky from above the water surface!

tornado!

The electricity transmitted to the water by the lightning rod instantly disperses the assembled formation of Team Rocket's flying Pokémon!

The lightning bird's tailwind was no longer suppressed.

The direction of the wind has changed.

"Air Blade!"

“Chirp!”

The lightning bird flapped its wings, and the invisible blade hit one of the lightning rods almost instantly, leaving a terrifying sharp cut.

Although it did not collapse, it began to crackle and lose its functionality.

This caused panic among the remaining members of Team Rocket.

"Teams one and two, regroup and continue suppressing Thunder God!"

"Team Three and the Reserves will fight back against the Zapdos!"

"Ground troops hold the lightning rod!"

The commander of this remnant of Team Rocket is very capable.

He actually adjusted his tactics according to the situation in a short period of time, and with just a sound he calmed the panicked team down.

What surprised Las even more was that in order to block Thunderbolt's electric-attribute moves and wear down its stamina, not only were nearly a hundred Pokémon with flying abilities prepared, but there was even a reserve team!

Could it be that all the resources from the Orange Islands have been mobilized here?!

"Zapdos! Divine Bird dashes forward!"

Pointing in the direction of the thunder drum, Lars gave instructions.

He didn't care whether the Rockets had mobilized all their remaining resources and were going all out.

While the remaining three teams and the reserve team of Team Rocket have not yet surrounded him and the Lightning Bird, it is impossible for Team Rocket to divide the battlefield.

"Three teams to intercept!"

"Teams one and two, keep watching over Lei Gong!"

"Reserve troops, surround them quickly!"

But the Rockets' commander also understood this.

If they want to succeed, they must divide the battlefield and prevent Las from joining forces with Zapdos and Thunderdome.

All three teams seemed to be composed of members of the Zubat family.

Under the commander's order, they immediately surrounded Las's Zapdos and swung their air blades to try to intercept it.

Although most of these bat Pokémon are not of high level, if they were to fight alone with the air blades they swung, they would not even be able to get close to the Zapdos with the help of a tailwind, and would be directly swept away by the airflow created by the powerful bird's attack.

But this is not a one-man show, and there are enough of them!

All the weak forces combined will form a huge force, which can break the airflow caused by the divine bird's fierce attack!

"Pull up!"

It was a close call, as Zapdos stopped its Divine Bird attack in time and increased its flying altitude, thus avoiding the extremely powerful air blade formed by the combined power of a large number of Bat Pokémon.

Seeing this, Team Rocket III took advantage of the situation and continued to have the Bat Pokémon work together to shoot out super-strong air blades, trying to force Lars and Zapdos to turn around.

The reserve troops are about to arrive here and form an encirclement.

Can't mess around with these guys.

Lars quickly observed the terrain of the cave and soon had an idea.

"Zapdos! Use Raincall!"

“Chirp!”

Zapdos immediately launched a ball of light into the air, but as expected, it immediately became the target of the bat Pokémon's concentrated fire.

The Pokémon that Team Rocket is targeting to defeat Thunderbolt are not all Pokémon that can fly unhindered in the rain.

It is impossible to predict a rainy day.

But what Las wants is the light ball formed by their attack rain-making skill!

Question: What is on the top of the cave?

It can't be the sky.

"Boom!"

The attack knocked away the rain-seeking ball and also hit the rock on the top of the cave.

A large amount of smoke exploded in the air, covering the figures of Las and Zapdos!

Target lost!

But it doesn't matter, Bat Pokémon doesn't rely on vision to lock onto the enemy.

Chaos suddenly broke out inside the Bat Pokémon!

Some Zubats suddenly went crazy and hit their companions with an air blade, causing the entire formation to become chaotic in an instant!

"Zapdos! Use Storm!"

At this time, the lightning bird also suddenly rushed out of the smoke from the side.

Las is standing on its back, and next to him is a golden little Magnemite that is constantly releasing ultrasonic waves!

The cause of the Bat Force's chaos has been found!

But there's no time for Team Rocket Commander to figure out a solution!

“Chirp!!”

The lightning bird took advantage of the favorable wind and stirred up a violent airflow!

The terrifying storm instantly dispersed the entire bat army, and even part of the reserve troops rushing here were caught up in it, clearing a flight path directly to the Thunder Drum!

Besides possessing lightning, Zapdos is also a divine bird!

"The sky! It's also the domain of the divine bird!"

“Chirp!!”

The lightning bird cried out loudly and spread its wings to express its majesty!

The style of the whole bird becomes tough at this moment!

"Again! Divine Bird Slam Charge!"

"Chirp——!!"

The lightning bird raised its head and chirped, its momentum increasing! Sharply increasing!

But he did not use the divine bird's attack!

Instead, there were lightning and thunder, and the lightning wrapped around his entire body, turning it into a flash of lightning, directly tearing apart the Rocket Team's flying troops!

As they bumped into each other, all the flying Pokémon that dared to block the progress of Zapdos fell down!

The air space inside the cave has completely become the territory of Zapdos!

The special effect on the body is that the rising speed is greatly increased!

It even moves at high speed!

The goal is!

"Oh no! They're targeting the lightning rod! Ground forces—"

"it's useless!!"

Lars drowned out the commander's voice!

The lightning reflected the resolute face in a tough painting style.

He roared loudly:

"Zapdos! Lightning Strike!!"

The lightning accelerates again!

That is the speed-increasing effect brought by high-speed movement!

With an indomitable momentum, the lightning bird crashed headfirst into the lightning rod!

"boom--!!"

One! Two! Three!

The ground forces can't stop it! They can't catch it! They can't keep up with the lightning speed!

They could only watch in vain as the lightning flashed across the low sky, avoiding their interception in an instant, and then another lightning rod fell!

"Roar!!!"

As the number of lightning rods decreases, the liberated thunder drums also follow!

The electricity rose, rendering the entire cave a golden hue.

The pillar of thunder suddenly rose up.

All the flying units hovering above it turned into charred black and fell into the river almost at the same time!

Even the Rocket Team members who were wearing insulating suits were pierced and melted by the strong lightning, and rolled on the ground due to the burns.
