I caught a Pokémon

Xia looked up at the enormous waterfall. Because of the thunderous roar of the water, she had to ask Xia You at the top of her lungs, "This must be Meteor Waterfall, right?"

Xia You naturally didn't know the name of this waterfall.

But it definitely feels like that Meteor Falls. After all, there's a meteorite crater there, so it's hard not to connect the two. And if you look closely, from the highest point of the waterfall down, countless water droplets fall like meteors, which looks spectacular and majestic!

Chapter 610 Xia You: Watch me outsmart you!

If they went out through the crack above their heads, they could immediately leave the cave and return to the surface. However, while that would allow them to regain their bearings, it would obviously defeat the purpose of entering the cave in the first place.

Xiaoxia had obviously thought of this as well. She was about to discuss it with Xia You, but before she could speak, Xia You took the initiative to come closer and made a shushing gesture to her.

Xiaoxia was taken aback at first, and before she could figure out what was going on, she saw herself being pulled behind a rock and pointed into the distance!

Upon closer inspection, on the other side of the waterfall, more than a hundred meters away, a group of people dressed in matching blue and white uniforms were seen shoving and pulling a bespectacled man towards a cave entrance.

Xiaoxia stared in surprise, immediately realizing that this was a kidnapping!

She was about to ask Xia You what to do when she turned around and saw him frowning, clearly recognizing those people. The words that were about to come out of her mouth changed to, "Brother Xia You, do you know those people?"

Xia You nodded: "They are from the Ocean Team."

"Team Ocean?"

"It's an organization similar to Team Rocket in this region, but they're not evil and don't want to steal other people's Pokémon."

"Huh?" Xia raised an eyebrow. "They don't sound like bad people!"

Xia You glanced at her and shook her head: "But their ultimate wish is to reclaim the habitat that Pokémon lost due to human desires and to expand the ocean organization. They believe that the ocean is the source of all life, so they want to take back the ocean and rebuild the ideal home for Pokémon."

"Huh?" Xiaoxia's mouth dropped open. "So that means..."

“That’s right.” Xia You snorted coldly. “To put it bluntly, these people want to control Kyogre, one of the ancient Pokémon and the ruler of the ocean, so as to flood the land and expand the ocean area!”

Xiaoxia then realized that compared to Team Rocket's desire to capture the strongest Pokémon and dominate the world, Team Ocean, although with a singular goal, was trying to change the current ecological balance and create a completely new world!

Ugh, honestly, people from all organizations are such a headache...

Just as she was feeling sentimental, she saw that after the Ocean Team members entered the cave, not long after, another group of people wearing cloaks of the same color quietly arrived and also entered the cave.

"And who are these people?"

“They are Team Magma.” Xia You told her about his previous encounter in Rustboro City, and then added, “These guys are another organization on this continent, but unlike Team Aqua, although they also want to control the ancient Pokémon, their target is not Kyogre, but the dominant force on the land—Groudon!”

"Another ancient Pokémon," Misty said dryly. "So, their goal isn't the same as Team Aqua's, is it?"

"Smart." Xia You gave a thumbs up approvingly. "Team Magma's goal is to expand the land area and increase the scope of human activity. They believe that human development is closely linked to the overall happiness of the world, and that the coexistence of humans and Pokémon would hinder their development. Because of their different ideologies and the fact that they are both on the Hoenn continent, the two organizations are like oil and water and often fight each other!"

Xiaoxia rubbed her temples.

To be honest, this is a bit too complicated. If she could, she would rather face the Rockets than something that involves survival!

Do you know the person who was just arrested?

Xia You shook his head. After all, he had only been in Hoenn for a short time and didn't know many people. Moreover, he had already forgotten some of the plots involving anime or games, and he couldn't remember some of the characters who had appeared in the story very clearly.

Regardless, the simultaneous appearance of Team Ocean and Team Lava in such a remote cave suggests that something significant is happening.

Even if it weren't for the sake of preventing the world's ecosystem from being destroyed, Xia You couldn't just sit idly by for his own safety.

After waiting a while longer and seeing that no one else appeared, Xiaoxia summoned the gem starfish, and the two went into the water. With the help of the gem starfish, they quickly and silently swam across the pool and reached the other side of the waterfall.

The roaring waterfall provided the best cover for the two of them; any faint sound they made was also drowned out by the waterfall.

Arriving at the entrance where Team Aqua and Team Magma had entered, the two peered inside, only to find that they were nowhere to be seen.

Team Ocean never expected that there was a tail following them, while Team Magma thought they were the mantis stalking the cicada, but they didn't expect that there would be a bird following them!

Xia You recalled all the Pokémon around her, released Gardevoir, and then summoned Gengar.

Entering the cave, Xia You and Xiao Xia proceeded cautiously without using flashlights, relying on Gengar to scout ahead. After walking for a short while, they spotted the sneaky Team Magma hiding behind some rocks in the distance!

Further ahead are the Ocean team members.

Xia You could hear the Ocean Team members saying something to the kidnapped bespectacled man, but because they were too far away, she couldn't hear them at all.

Xia You gave Gengar a wink, and Gengar understood, immediately burrowing underground and approaching from the ground.

However, before Gengar could even get close, something unexpected happened.

Perhaps the Magma Team had grown impatient and felt the time was right, so they rushed out from their hiding place and attacked the Marine Team members.

It must be said that this really had an unexpected effect.

The Ocean Team members never expected to be attacked, and they were thrown into chaos. Before they could put up an effective resistance, several of them had already been knocked down!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia You and Xiaoxia quietly advanced to the place where Team Magma had just hidden. After arriving here, they could clearly hear the conversation and fighting between Team Magma and Team Aqua.

Upon arriving here, the two were finally able to clearly see the faces of the Team Magma and Team Aqua members.

There were more than a dozen people on each side, and the team members were dressed in the same clothes, except for the two team leaders who looked completely different.

First, there's the Ocean team. Their team leader is a tall woman, around 26 or 7 years old. She wasn't wearing a headscarf, but rather sunglasses. She wasn't wearing a uniform either, but rather a crop top and long pants that exposed her outer thighs. She had long, slightly wavy black hair that covered her back. Her skin was a little dark. Although she wasn't particularly beautiful, she exuded a shrewd and capable air.

The captain of Team Magma is also a woman, but she is much younger than the captain of Team Aqua, looking to be only 18 or 9 years old. She wears the same red hood as the other team members, and under the hood are light purple hair and a delicate and pretty face. She is wearing a red skirt and knee-high boots, which makes her look both well-behaved and cute.

Although the two captains belonged to different camps, they clearly knew each other. While their team members fought, they simply stood still and coldly watched each other.

The hooded young woman said to the tall woman, "Didn't expect us to show up, did you? Our Lava Team's intelligence network isn't to be underestimated. Don't think you're the only ones with this lead!"

The tall woman remained unmoved, simply saying, "You did catch us off guard, but do you think that will do anything to us? How naive! Let me tell you the truth: we scouted this place a week ago. We know exactly where every cave leads. If we want to leave, no one can stop us!"

"Trying to leave? Not so easy!" the young woman said. "Enough with the nonsense, hand over that man right now!"

The man she was referring to was naturally the bespectacled man who had been kidnapped by the Ocean Team. Hearing the woman's words, Xia You couldn't help but look at the man. He was about 40 years old, wearing round glasses, with messy hair, and dressed in a vest—a typical scholar's attire.

At this moment, the man was tied up with ropes and stood behind the tall woman, looking flustered, as if he had no idea what was going on.

The tall woman glanced at the young girl and laughed, "Stop dreaming. Dr. Solans was someone we went to great lengths to hire. How could we possibly hand him over to you? Fire Goose, do you think I don't know what your Lava Team is up to? You just want to find a meteorite to activate the volcano here and make it erupt, so that you can achieve your ridiculous and outlandish dream!"

"We're being delusional?" The young girl called Fire Goose frowned and said loudly, "Ah Quan, it's you who're being delusional! Then what's the point of you wanting to excavate meteorites? Isn't it for your equally ridiculous dreams?"

"What did you say!?"

"What you're saying is right!"

The two engaged in a heated verbal battle, which, while satisfying their own urges, allowed Xia You and Xiao Xia, who were hiding nearby, to hear the whole story clearly and understand the whole situation.

It seems there must be a meteorite here containing magical power, and the kidnapped doctor must be an expert in this field. Both sides want to use him to find the meteorite in order to achieve their own unspeakable secrets!

The battle inside the cave was fierce. The two sides were fighting in one place, and Pokémon kept falling. It was clear that Team Magma had the advantage, while Team Aqua, after the initial panic, had slowly recovered and was fighting and pulling away, retreating to a side path.

Xia You and Xiao Xia exchanged a glance.

Xiaoxia asked quietly, "Brother Xiayou, what do you plan to do?"

"Is that even a question?" Xia You chuckled, pulling a super ball from her waist pouch. "Neither of these two groups has any good intentions, so of course we're going to take advantage of the chaos and give them a super surprise!"

Xiaoxia's gaze lingered on the Great Ball for a moment, then she asked in surprise, "Huh? You're going to use a legendary Pokémon for this?"

Because she was so familiar with Xia You, Xiaoxia knew that apart from the powerful ordinary Pokémon, Xia You's legendary Pokémon were all stored in several Great Balls. Therefore, as soon as she saw the Great Ball, she knew Xia You's plan.

Xia You nodded: "Anyway, we've already clashed with them before, so we're not afraid of offending them again. Let's just give them a big one!"

As he spoke, he quietly opened the super ball, and with a flash of blue light, his Thunder God appeared beside him.

Upon appearing, Lei Gong shook his head, seemingly still somewhat unaccustomed to being in the darkness.

Xia You patted its head, whispered a few words in Lei Gong's ear, gave the instructions, and then pointed forward. The next second, Lei Gong rushed towards Team Lava and Team Ocean in the distance like a swift lightning bolt!

The golden lightning almost immediately caught the attention of Fire Goose and Ah Quan!

Who is it!?

The two shouted at the same time, and then looked up to see the Thunder God coming with lightning speed, arriving in an instant!

"This is... a Pokémon...?"

The two women frowned, not recognizing Lei Gong's identity for a moment.

This can't be blamed on them. After all, they live in Hoenn, and Raikou is a legendary Pokémon in the Johto region. Locals rarely encounter it, let alone people from other regions. Even if they had heard of it, they wouldn't immediately connect the two.

In that brief moment of distraction, the Thunder God had already arrived.

Suddenly, a dazzling burst of electricity erupted from its body, spreading outwards. With a crackling sound, the members of Team Magma and Team Aqua, along with their Pokémon, were caught off guard and struck by the electric current!

This unexpected turn of events caught everyone present off guard.

Team Magma and Team Aqua were initially drawn to the elegant and mysterious Pokémon when they saw it, thinking it was some rare creature. But no one expected it to attack them directly!

"Damn it, have we been attacked?"

At the same time, Huoyan and Aquan both looked in the direction from which Leigong had come, but it was pitch black there and they found nothing.

Ok?

Nobody here?

Could it be a wild Pokémon, and the reason it attacked them was because they trespassed on its territory?

I've never heard of a Pokémon like this existing near Meteor Falls!

With the intervention of the Thunder God, the situation that Team Lava had just gained the upper hand was instantly reversed.

Because they were closest, Team Magma was most affected by Raikou's attack and suffered severe losses. However, Raikou's attack was indiscriminate, and with the second surge of electricity, many more Team Aqua members and Pokémon fell to the ground.

Perhaps realizing the power of this unknown Pokémon, Firebird and Aquan almost simultaneously ordered, "Don't just stand there, grab it!"

The two sides stopped fighting and changed their target, launching an attack on Lei Gong.

Fortunately, Raikou was extremely agile and its electric shocks were incredibly powerful. These ordinary team members' Pokémon were no match for it, and many of them were lost in the first battle.

Taking advantage of this moment, Xia You and Xiao Xia quietly walked slowly towards the battlefield.

In the midst of the chaos, the people did not notice two dark figures approaching Dr. Solans!

Chapter 611 Higana

The spacious cave, filled with rubble, is perfect for thunderbolt warfare.

Despite the large number of Pokémon in Team Magma and Team Aqua, Raikou can use the complex terrain to outmaneuver them. Moreover, being alone, it doesn't need to dodge its teammates' attacks and moves, so it has no worries, which becomes its advantage.

Seeing that so many people couldn't defeat this Pokémon, both A-Quan and Hu-Gan frowned.

They realized that it wasn't that their subordinates were incompetent, but rather that this Pokémon was simply too powerful. Even its ordinary electric shock seemed to possess a destructive force far exceeding that of a typical Electric-type Pokémon!

Fire Goose couldn't hold back any longer and sent out her Pokémon with a wave of her hand.

Her Pokémon is a tall animal-type Pokémon with long orange-red fur, a head somewhat like a donkey, a body somewhat like a camel, and two rock-like humps on its back.

This is Camerupt, a Ground/Fire-type Pokémon that lives in tropical regions!

The towering Camerupt stands nearly two meters tall, and its imposing presence sets it apart from other Pokémon from the moment it appears.

Under the command of the Fire Goose, the Fire-Breathing Camel slowly walked towards the Thunder God, and at the same time opened its mouth and sprayed a scorching flame at the Thunder God!

On the other side, when A-Quan saw Firebird release her Pokémon, she was about to release her own Pokémon as well, but she vaguely sensed that something was wrong, so she stopped what she was doing and instead cautiously surveyed the battlefield.

Unlike Huoyan, who was once a scientist and is now the team leader, Aquan, as the brains of the Ocean Team, has a better overall perspective. Despite her hot and daring outfits, she is actually very meticulous and is known for her intelligence. She has a very high reputation in the Ocean Team, second only to the leader.

Because of this personality, the sudden appearance of this Pokémon that can only generate electricity made her feel that things were not as simple as they seemed!

And upon closer inspection, she indeed discovered something!

At the edge of the battlefield, two figures, one tall and one short, were sneaking closer to her from behind. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that these two were not members of the Lava Team, but a strange man she had never seen before and a girl who looked to be around ten years old!

Ok?

Who are they? Where did they come from?

Her gaze sharpened, and she shouted, "Halt! Who are you?!"

A-Quan's shout not only exposed Xia You and Xiao Xia, but also drew Huo Yan's attention to them.

Huo Yan looked at the two people and realized that they had obviously sneaked up behind them, so she knew that she was definitely being followed!

Thinking of this, her eyes were also full of hostility!

As for Xia You, he wasn't too surprised to be discovered. In fact, it was already beyond his expectations that he could sneak up to such a close distance by taking advantage of the environment inside the cave and the chaotic battle.

Seeing that both women's eyes were fixed on him, he immediately shouted, "Attack!"

Before anyone could figure out what was going on, a Gengar suddenly emerged from the ground in the very center of the battlefield. With a chilling 'hehe' laugh, the Gengar held a Dark Ball in each hand and threw them into the crowd!

Boom!
