Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master

【Intimacy Level: 80% (I feel very safe and secure around you.)】

[Description: With its robust build, it can easily traverse wetlands. Its five claws allow it to skillfully dig into the ground to find things. It is one of the special Pokémon that received mystical protection from Arceus, and is therefore revered in the Greenland region.]

"Your stats have increased a lot after evolving, you've become much stronger, Moonbear!"

Ash happily rubbed the head of the bear, "Hmm, so there's fur in the yellowish areas."

But we've decided to call him Bald Qiang anyway.

The Moon Bear excitedly roared loudly at the full moon.

[Ding! Moon Bear: Affection +1; Intimacy +1]

Unexpectedly, a faint sound came from the nearby woods.

Several bears with unfriendly expressions stood up instantly, baring their teeth at Ash and his friends.

"That's a Ghost Mask move." Ash sensed something was wrong and quickly called for everyone to move closer to his back.

Meanwhile, more and more circle bears got up deep in the forest.

"Why are there so many circly bears here?" Xiaoxia was surprised; they felt like they were surrounded.

Normally, one family of circus bears is considered a lot in a forest, but here there are dozens, if you count them roughly.

Moreover, its offensive power is terrifyingly high; it completely ignores Ash and his friends' greetings and launches several Hyper Beams directly at them.

"Are you kidding me? Direct attack?"

In an instant, it shattered the dining table that Ash and his friends had placed next to them.

Fortunately, they had already finished eating and cleaned up, but the small wooden table was damaged in the explosion.

Although the regular circly bears are quite dangerous, the group on the other side seemed even more aggressive.

Dozens of Ursaring suddenly swarmed forward, and Misty and Rinka also released their Pokémon to fight back.

"Perfect timing! Let's test out our evolved power, Moon Bear!"

"Use the Leap of Faith!"

Although the evolved Moonbear's speed has decreased slightly, its stamina and attack power have been greatly improved.

At Ash's command, Ursaring charged forward with its massive body.

With a sudden attack, his glowing arms swiftly pounced on the four circled bears opposite him.

"Okay, let's continue using the arm hammer!"

"Ow!"

The Moon Bear raised its powerful forelimbs and smashed them violently against the four fallen Circle Bears.

The heads of the four cuddly bears were smashed into the ground, rendering them incapable of fighting.

"Well done, Ruby!" Ash is getting better and better at commanding Ruby, a slow-moving but high-attack tank.

But then several more circle bears surrounded it, unleashing destructive beams from their mouths that focused fire on the moon bear.

"No way! I'm usually the one who gangs up on others, when have I ever been the one ganged up on?"

Faced with so many Ursarings, Ash immediately released his other Pokémon.

Gengar, Sylveon, and Wingshot are responsible for the left flank.

Squirtle, Heracross, and Scizor are responsible for the right lane.

Pikachu, Suicune, and Umbreon will take the lead in facing the enemy!

As for the little cuties, Chikorita Totodile and the newly evolved Cyndaquil are responsible for guerrilla warfare, replenishing their ranks wherever needed.

Kirlian was assigned the role of healer, making the tactical allocation perfect.

The situation was evenly matched for a time.

Most of the circle bears in this forest are quite strong, and there are so many of them that it seems like they can't be defeated.

For example, Xiaoxia often needs several Pokémon to defeat a single Ursaring on the opposing team.

Rika's Houndoom is powerful, but it's also starting to tire out from being worn down by the opponent's relentless attacks.

At this moment, Ash threw Umbreon's Poké Ball to her, and then joined the battle right behind Pikachu.

With Ash's arrival, the situation finally turned around.

"Pikachu, Iron Tail!"

"Pickup!"

A thrilling combo attack: Pikachu spins on the ground and uses Iron Tail to stun Ursaring, followed by Ash's Uppercut to completely knock out the opponent.

"Scizor, Bullet Punch!"

"clamp!"

Ash's fist even struck Ursaring's chest before Scizor's fist could land; it was hard to tell who was using a bullet punch.

Another circle bear was defeated by them.

"Eight Treasure Porridge, you're not allowed to run away! Go back and fight!"

"But those bears over there are so fierce..."

Faced with Ash's even fiercer iron fist, Suicune nimbly bounced back.

"Hey~, it's Wei Junjie from Xixi Supplies!" (Colonel's accent)

"You bunch of stinking bears, come and taste my giant water cannon!"

A powerful jet of water erupted instantly, blasting away several circle bears in front of it.

With Ash's long-term focus on training, Eight Treasure Porridge's strength is actually quite good.

Especially in terms of speed, Pikachu is constantly electrifying my butt, forcing me to run.

Even without the aura boost, it's already at the level of a regular Suicune.

The problem is their mentality; they're already thinking about making a run for it before the game even starts.

With Ash and his Pokémon working in perfect harmony, the Ursaring army was finally defeated several hours later.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have achieved the achievement "U Bear Slayer": You have defeated a total of 100 bear-type Pokémon. (Wow, you'll definitely do very well in Johto!)]

【获得奖励：联盟币+4000；防御+1；体力+2；攻击+2；熊类宝可梦对战券+1】

"Are there really such a category as 'bear-type Pokémon'?" Ash was a little confused.

"Does that mean all Pokémon have 'bear' in their names? There don't seem to be that many..."

Anyway, he'd find out once he used it, so Xiao Zhi stopped thinking about it.

Chapter 207 The Shiny Owl Night Hawk

After the battle, Ash and Blossom cleaned up the area, dragging the numerous Ursaring "corpses" to one side and arranging them neatly.

"That darn Satoshi is making me do manual labor again." Pear struggled to pull away a huge bear.

Ash has now returned both Pokémon to her, and Blossom is thinking of running away.

However, after thinking about it, Rika decided to stay with Ash a little longer.

It's not that I'm reluctant to part with Satoshi, it's just that I think it would be quite fun to be around him...

And there's that sweet ball that can subdue her; Rika must find it and smash it.

This is the biggest black mark on her life, it absolutely cannot be left untouched!

But Xiaozhi is unaware that Rika is going through a fierce internal struggle; watch as she quickly completes the task.

I casually walked over, patted her head, and praised her, but unexpectedly, my hand was slapped away by her.

"Hey, don't treat me like a child!"

[Ding! Pear Blossom: Affection +1]

"?" Girls' thoughts are hard to understand.

After cleaning up the Ursaring's "corpse," Ash felt a great sense of accomplishment seeing the huge pile of remains.

But he hesitated when considering whether or not to treat the bears.

"Even if they're cured, they'll probably attack again. It's better to just let them recover naturally."

With a wicked sense of humor, he built a small mound of earth for the "Jingguan" (a mound of earth) of the circle bear and even bought three incense sticks from the system store and lit them.

Ash clapped his hands, thanking them for their great contribution to making his Pokémon stronger.

The group then left immediately.

Only after leaving the forest did Ash finally understand why these Ursarings were so ferocious.

"It's currently Ursaring's breeding season, and the Pokémon will be extremely stressed and prone to aggression..."

"Please keep your distance and absolutely do not approach or disturb the Circle Bears in the forest..."

Looking at the large notice board in front of them, Ash and his friends fell into deep thought.

"...Ash, could the forest where we got lost yesterday be the territory of the Ursarings?"

Finally, feeling really bad, Ash and his friends immediately went back to treat the bears that had been brutally beaten.

Then he left a large bag of food before leaving again.

However, the legend of the bear-slaying hero remained in the Circle Bear Forest after that.

Although it's unclear why, trainers can avoid being attacked by Ursaring as long as they wear a baseball cap when passing by.

Later, at the entrance to the Circle Bear Forest, a similar business of renting out cuckoos, similar to that in the Bewildering Forest, was developed.

However, what's being rented here is Pikachu.

—A sudden, fierce pounce—

"Speaking of Xia, how far are we from Manjin City and the maple forest that Mr. Steel mentioned?"

After leaving Ursaring Forest, Ash and his friends continued their journey along the road for another day.

Hearing Ash's question, Misty took out a map.

Thanks to Ursaring Forest as a guide, Ash and his friends finally managed to escape their confusion and find their current location.

"Hmph, once we get through the forest ahead and then along Highway 9 or the green meadows, we'll reach Golden City."

"Then, if you keep going forward from Manjin City, you'll soon reach the Maple Forest!" Xiaoxia happily patted the map and put it away.

It feels so good to have the route planned out; it gives me a warm sense of reassurance.

"Green grassland!" Pear Blossom suddenly exclaimed excitedly.

"This is the number one travel destination for girls in the Johto region!"

"Yes, it's a green grassland."

Xiaoxia had been so focused on Xiaozhi's words that she had forgotten about this, and she became happy as well.

"Let's go see the scenery together then!"

"It must be very beautiful!"

Xiaoxia and Lihua happily held hands and jumped around.

Although Ash wasn't interested in such things, and there weren't many Pokémon on the green grasslands.

However, seeing how much they liked it, we decided to head that way since it was on the way.

With little time left to travel, Ash was soon to reach Goldenrod City and challenge the next gym, and his mood improved.

But the forest ahead sounded so unsettling.

"Ash, it's time we caught another Pokémon that can fly."

Xiaoxia always misses Pidgeot whenever she gets lost.

Unfortunately, that guy has now become the leader of the clan and is currently waging a clan war against the big-billed sparrows in the mountains and forests behind the research institute.

When Ash sent it over for training, he was always distracted, worried that Finch would sneak up on him.
