"Miss Joey, are you alright?"
Xiao Zhi quickly picked her up and took her to a safe beach.
Ash, where's Wailord?
At this moment, Nurse Joy gradually recovered, stood up and looked around, then immediately remembered what had happened before she fainted, and anxiously asked Ash.
"I remember a strange group of people suddenly appeared and came to capture it... Is Wailord alright?"
"Don't worry about that."
As he spoke, Xiao Zhi pointed to the sea not far away.
"I've rescued them all, and I've knocked all the bad guys away!"
At this moment, the roaring whale king's pod was spraying huge jets of water into the sky, celebrating their regained freedom.
The largest one, in particular, immediately barked happily in their direction after seeing Ash and his friends, seemingly to express its gratitude to Nurse Joy.
Miss Joey was immediately relieved upon seeing this.
At this moment, Xiaoyao and the others, who had been waiting on the beach for a long time, also rushed over.
“Miss Joey, it’s so good to see you back safe and sound.”
"Yes, thank you so much for your concern."
However, at this moment, Ash suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"Aren't there a lot of people here?"
"Shinichi! Didn't I tell you to wait at the Pokémon Center? Why are you here too?"
Seeing that Max had even brought his Pokémon, Ash quickly moved closer to Nurse Joy, worried that she would discover the trouble he and Max had gotten into.
"Oh, well, there's a reason for that."
Faced with Ash's question, Max reluctantly shifted his position, making room for Ash.
It turned out that there was a middle-aged man dressed like an office worker and a little girl with blue hair standing next to him.
Upon seeing these two, Miss Joey's expression instantly changed.
"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, I forgot that it was time. I'll get right on track with the Pokémon selection for you!"
"No, no, it's alright, Miss Joey. You can rest a little longer."
"We just arrived; we came along because we were worried about your safety."
The little girl quickly added that she wasn't in a hurry at the moment.
Ash then realized, "So that little girl is the new Pokémon trainer who's choosing Pokémon today."
The older man and the little girl were both kind people and were not angry because Miss Joey was late.
Instead, they cared for her and told her to rest well and not to exercise too much right after waking up.
They had just witnessed the entire explosion at Team Rocket's base and the scene of Miss Joy's fall, and they understood how difficult it had been for Miss Joy today.
However, Miss Joey is still the same serious and responsible Joey.
She wouldn't let her own accident delay others for too long and insisted on completing the Pokémon gifting ceremony as planned.
"Ash, Max, did you bring the Pokémon I asked you to look after?"
Miss Joey from Kaina City, with her usual sweet smile, asked the two of them.
"I think I just heard Mudkip and Treecko calling out."
"Ah, this..."
Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Ash had no choice but to step aside, revealing Treecko and Mudkip.
At the same time, the strong chicken that had been struggling behind Xiao Sheng broke free of its restraints, kicked Xiao Sheng away, raised its arms high, and roared loudly.
"Ah, a Mighty Chicken?"
Why is there a strong chicken here?
Miss Joy looked at the strange yet familiar Pokémon with a puzzled expression, her mind filled with questions.
In response, Ash and his friends could only immediately explain the reason and apologize.
While the fact that this Mighty Chicken was exceptionally gifted was partly to blame, the main reason was Ash and his friends' fault.
I kept giving high-level experience all morning, and it even evolved my Torchic.
That Lobster Soldier guy, the training intensity increased tenfold later on!
But it's too late to say all that now; Ash and Max can only bow.
I am so sorry!
Ash was deeply ashamed that such a simple request could still go wrong.
He even wanted to lick Miss Joey's toes as an apology!
After hearing their explanation, the kind-hearted Miss Joey did not blame them further.
He just looked at the energetic and strong chicken with a headache.
"Oh dear, this is difficult now. It will take at least another month to apply for a new Torchic."
"Haha, it's okay. Anyway, all Pokémon seem pretty much the same to me. Let my daughter choose one at random."
The older man was a reasonable person, but the little girl was a bit conflicted.
Suddenly, just as everyone was thinking about how to solve the problem, several small black planes rushed towards Ash and his friends from the sea.
The plane at the very front extended a large mechanical arm, which instantly grabbed Miss Joey from the beach.
"What? Who came from here?" Haruka was shocked, while Musashi and the other two immediately recognized them.
"That big red 'R' sign on the spaceship, those look like Team Rocket's special operations forces."
That's right, they are members of the special operations force under Amado and Kosaburo.
They had been sent out by Kosaburo to sweep through the edge of this sea area and scout out if there were any lone Wailords left.
The result was naturally fruitless; I had originally thought I would definitely be criticized when I returned.
But when they returned after completing their mission, they were surprised to find the sky completely empty.
Everyone was completely bewildered.
"What happened? How come our huge aerial base is gone? And how come all the Wailords have come out?"
Terrified, they abandoned Wailord and frantically searched their surroundings, only to discover that Joy, whom they had captured earlier, had also escaped.
"How can this be allowed?" the team leader exclaimed angrily.
"Even if it's just a piece of mud that our Rockets team captures, it's still an important asset to the organization!"
Therefore, the extraordinary wisdom of this group of people immediately came into play.
Instead of choosing to escape as their only way out, they immediately flew towards Ash and his friends' location to capture Nurse Joy.
The squad leader even fantasized that they would be highly praised by Yamato and Kosaburo for re-arresting their important fugitive.
Yes, they didn't know that Amado had previously ordered Higana to release Joey.
"Hahaha, the fugitive has been successfully recovered!"
The Team Rocket members were overjoyed to have successfully launched a surprise attack while Ash and his friends were off guard.
“Men, now we can go back and recapture the Wailords so we can report back to Yamado and the Third Minister.”
"Chapter!"
Seeing that Miss Joey had been kidnapped again, Strong Chicken actually rushed forward first.
It leaped into the air, its sharp claws instantly cleaving the mechanical arm in two, rescuing Miss Joey.
It then unleashed a jet of flame, instantly burning the small Rocket Team plane in front of it to an explosion.
Ash reacted instantly and ran to catch Nurse Joy. Unexpectedly, he was able to save the damsel in distress twice in such a short time.
"The Rockets are like flies, they just won't go away."
At this point, all of our personnel on the beach had gathered.
"Pikachu, Thunderbolt!"
"Turkey, Spark!"
"Spiked Snake, Poison Sting Attack!"
"Desert Nyarlathotep, Pin Missile!"
When Team Rocket saw that someone dared to defy them, they immediately released their Pokémon.
Meanwhile, several planes were not idle either, shamelessly launching an attack on Ash and his friends.
The Rockets' little planes not only look like flies, but their attack movements also resemble flies.
They fired flashbangs one after another, but they were all directly destroyed by Pikachu's Thunderbolt.
Meanwhile, Team Rocket's Pokémon were used as experience points by Ash's Swellow and Grovyle.
Ash and all his Pokémon worked together to protect the people on site and launch a counterattack against Team Rocket.
Under his outstanding command, the black flies and their Pokémon were all blown up and sent flying in no time.
This is the Rockets' second time flying.

"Wow, that's amazing!" The uncle kept clapping for Ash and his friends after the battle.
"I never realized before that Pokémon are such wonderful creatures."
The uncle was almost scared to death when he saw Team Rocket flying planes and carrying dangerous weapons at him.
He had always lived in the city and had never really had any real contact with Pokémon.
This is the first time I've witnessed a Pokémon battle in person, and I'm deeply impressed.
It's amazing how easily Pokémon could defeat these seemingly sophisticated and menacing machines.
After being rescued for the second time, Miss Joey quickly dusted herself off and, as usual, went to the uncle and the little girl.
Although there were some minor hiccups, it's getting late, and we still need to hurry up and get things done.
"How have you decided regarding the Pokémon selection?"
As usual, Miss Joey asked the question she often asked newcomers, but she still looked a little hesitant when she looked at Strong Chicken.
"The Mighty Chicken is definitely too difficult for beginners..."
"It's okay, I've already decided to choose Mudkip!"
At this moment, the little girl ran excitedly to the Mudkip and hugged it.
"It was so cute how it cried while shooting water guns when it was helping out, I'm going to choose it!"
"Really? That's great since you've made your choice."
The newbies didn't choose Torchic, and Ash and his friends cleared the stage perfectly.
Miss Joy happily handed the Mudkip's Poké Ball to the little girl.
However, the little gecko that wasn't chosen was a bit sad.
"Chama~"
It imitated Ash's Forest Lizard, picking up a branch with flowers growing on it.
Her big, watery eyes blinked, and tears welled up in her eyes with a sense of loss.
The man was stunned the moment he saw the wood gecko.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
At this moment, Xiaosheng also squatted down to comfort Xiaomu Gecko.
"It's alright, Treecko, don't be so disappointed. You'll definitely be..."
