I caught a Pokémon

Speaking of which, after entering the second round of the trial, Musashi's fighting style was to defeat her opponents by reflecting their moves back using Wobbuffet's Double Strike and Mirror Reflection.

Although it seems simple, Musashi managed to defeat two opponents in succession using this method, showing that Wobbuffet is quite powerful at certain times.

Of course, this is also inseparable from the fact that those two opponents were stubborn and only knew how to launch a strong attack.

Meowth stared intently at the arena. Seeing that May seemed to have studied Wobbuffet through these battles, she didn't launch a strong attack. Instead, she had Squirtle move around to find Wobbuffet's weaknesses. After pondering for a moment, she said, "If nothing unexpected happens, Jessie will probably lose. We need to prepare in advance!"

Kojiro pressed on, "What do you plan to do?"

"Do you see that person?"

Meow pointed in a certain direction with its paw, and Kojiro quickly looked over. He saw Harry, the man he had just met, leaning against a pillar in the shadows, also watching the game.

"Him?" Kojiro asked, puzzled. "What happened to him?"

Meow Meow chuckled: "Since he wants Musashi to avenge him, we naturally have to collect some reward!"

Kojiro's eyes lit up: "You mean...?"

“That’s right.” Meowth snapped its fingers and grinned mischievously. “The fact that this guy came in second place in the first round of judging proves that his Pokémon is also very strong. We can take this opportunity to present his Pokémon to the boss!”

In a corner of the venue, Harry stood with his arms crossed, staring at Haruka on the stage with a gloomy expression.

Because of his carelessness, he didn't take down Squirtle immediately, which caused him to miss out on victory. It's impossible for him not to regret it.

But the outcome was already decided, so what good was it if he was unwilling?

Fortunately, the woman in the arena named Fairy Musashi Bian could teach Haruka a lesson in her place, and she became his last hope!

Come on, Fairy Musashi Bian, let me see your strength!

I hope you won't let me down!

Harry smirked, and just as he was thinking this, a figure flashed before his eyes, and a person and a Pokémon suddenly appeared in front of him.

Ok?

Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was none other than the fairy Musashi Bian's assistant and follower!

"It's you?" Harry frowned, looking at them with a puzzled expression. "Is there something you need?"

Kojiro rubbed his hands together, looking somewhat embarrassed, and said with a forced smile, "Well... as you can see, that little girl is quite troublesome. Our fairy Musashi Bian might not be a match for her, so we need to borrow your strength."

Harry's brow furrowed even deeper: "Borrow my power? What does that mean?"

Meowth said bluntly, "Of course I need your Pokémon!"

Harry was extremely surprised: "Hasn't the battle already started? How can I change Pokémon? Besides, I've already eliminated them, so how can I lend them to her?"

Kojiro smiled brightly and said, "Actually, we have a technique that allows us to summon Pokémon to assist us in battle. This is also the signature skill of our Fairy Jessie Bian, which can instantly turn the situation into a two-on-one or even a multi-on-one battle!"

"Oh?"

Harry's eyes lit up when he heard Kojiro's description.

He didn't doubt the truth of the matter. After all, he had never dealt with the Rocket Trio before, so he naturally didn't know that these people in front of him were definitely bad guys who stole Pokémon. He really thought they were some famous Pokémon Coordinators!

Out of respect for these trainers, he couldn't possibly think the worst of them.

Moreover, as for the trick Kojiro mentioned, Harry, who often uses tricks, didn't see anything wrong with it.

only……

Out of caution, he still asked, "Then why do you need my Pokémon?"

Kojiro shrugged: "We didn't want to trouble you, but Lady Sylveon didn't bring that many Pokémon with her when she went out this time. We had no choice but to come to you."

Harry hesitated for a moment.

Although he hesitated for a moment, he thought that the fairy Musashi Bian was so famous, and she had two assistants with her, making such a grand entrance, and she had entered the second round of review with the first place, so she shouldn't be deceiving herself.

"Alright then, what Pokémon do you need?"

Hearing that Harry had actually agreed, Kojiro and Meowth were overjoyed, but they suppressed their excitement and didn't show it. They just smiled and said, "If possible, we hope you can lend us the Dream Song Cactus that you performed in the first round, and Ariados that you fought in the second round!"

Harry didn't say anything more, but readily took two Poké Balls from his pocket and handed them to Kojiro and Meowth.

Having received the two Poké Balls, Kojiro and Meowth exchanged a glance, both seeing joy in each other's eyes.

But even at this crucial moment, they didn't get carried away. Instead, they solemnly thanked Harry, saying, "With your Pokémon, I believe Lord Jessie Bian will definitely win! So we won't bother you any longer, just wait for our good news!"

After saying that, the two of them ran away without waiting for Harry to say anything.

Watching them leave, Harry didn't think much of it, assuming that time was tight and Jessie urgently needed these Pokémon to appear, so he turned his gaze back to the center of the stage.

At this moment, the situation on the field seemed to be somewhat unfavorable for Musashi Bian. Squirtle did not attack Wobbuffet directly, but instead tried to defeat it indirectly.

It seems we've indeed reached a stalemate.

No wonder those two assistants came to me for help!

He squinted and focused his gaze on Xiaoyao.

Hmph, this time I'm going to make you lose all face!

Harry has fooled May so many times, but he never expected to be fooled by Team Rocket.

He never imagined that the Rockets weren't targeting Yao at all, but simply trying to trick him, and he foolishly thought their scheme had succeeded.

It can only be said that everyone makes mistakes, and even the smartest person can be outsmarted one day!

Just as he was looking forward to it, the final showdown of the Golden Golden Tournament has entered its final stage.

On the battlefield, May was still directing Squirtle, trying different ways to attack Wobbuffet.

Although she still couldn't recognize Musashi, she had roughly analyzed the abilities of this Wobbuffet through observing the two battles.

In short, it can be described in one sentence—it has absolutely no proactive attack capability!

Well, this is the way most Wobbuffets fight, so there's nothing strange about it. But that's precisely why, even though she felt that the purple-haired woman opposite her was somewhat familiar and her voice sounded familiar, she still didn't recognize Musashi.

However, despite the analysis, it's still quite difficult for Squirtle to defeat Wobbuffet given its abilities.

There was less than a minute left.

Fortunately, although it couldn't defeat Wobbuffet, Wobbuffet's Spectrum stat kept decreasing under Squirtle's relentless attacks, and it had reached a rather dangerous point.

Conversely, Squirtle's flair stats haven't been affected, and under these circumstances, May will still emerge victorious even without defeating Wobbuffet.

This drove Musashi crazy.

But that's just how the rules are. No matter how she commands Wobbuffet or how anxious she is, Wobbuffet just stands there blankly and stupidly, without taking any initiative to reduce Squirtle's stats!

This made Harry very anxious.

He kept glancing at Musashi, hoping for the move that supposedly summons Pokémon to help in battle, but after watching for a long time, Musashi still didn't make any move!

What on earth is she doing?

If we delay any longer, it will be too late!

Just as he was thinking this, all the lights in the golden hall suddenly went out at the same time, plunging the hall into complete darkness.

For a moment, not only did the battle on the field stop, but even the audience looked around in surprise and started discussing among themselves.

"Huh?" Lillian's voice echoed through the venue through the microphone. "What's going on?"

Just as she finished speaking, a spotlight suddenly shone on Musashi on the stage!

Huh?

Musashi looked around, wondering what was going on. Just as she was wondering, two figures suddenly jumped to her side.

At the same time, music started playing from somewhere.

In the light, people finally saw clearly that it was a man in a white uniform, with a standing cat, who jumped to the side of the fairy Musashi Bian.

Needless to say, the man in the white uniform and the cat are none other than Kojiro and the cat who have shed their disguises!

When they suddenly appeared on stage, not only were the audience extremely surprised and confused about what was going on, but even Musashi himself was puzzled and looked at his two partners in astonishment.

"What are you doing here!?"

Meow Meow completely ignored Musashi and instead shouted arrogantly at the audience, "I heard someone say 'What's going on?'!"

Kojiro also leaned back, clenched his fist, and said, "From the other side of the horizon!"

Almost out of control, Musashi instinctively shed his disguise, leaped to Kojiro's side, and stood back to back with him, saying, "From the other side of the Great Thunderbolt!"

"We hear a voice calling us!"

"Sorry to keep you waiting, meow!"

"The devil's flower blooms bravely!"

"A cute yet strong villain!"

"Musashi!"

"Kojiro!"

"I am the meow meow meow! Meow!"

"Wherever Team Rocket is!"

Oh, world!

"The universe!"

"Everyone is waiting for you!"

“So~nansi~~~”

After subconsciously completing these actions, Musashi finally came to his senses and turned to his two companions, demanding, "So! What exactly did you come up here for!?"

Has Chapter 825 begun? No, it's already over!

"Musashi." Kojiro turned to Musashi and smiled brightly. "Don't you understand? The operation is over!"

"Operation?" Musashi looked completely bewildered. "What operation? And it's over already!?"

"Of course—" Kojiro drawled out the first syllable, then with a stylish flick of his wrist, several grappling hooks descended from the ceiling and landed in front of them. At the same time, he loudly announced, "—Operation Pokémon Capture has begun!!"

"A Pokémon-stealing operation!?" Musashi was dumbfounded. "When did we come up with this plan!? And I haven't even finished my battles yet!"

Just as she was speaking, the remaining five minutes of the countdown expired. This meant that even though Wobbuffet was not defeated, its Brilliance stat was much lower than Squirtle's, so according to the rules, Jessie had already lost!

"No!" Seeing the three red crosses on the referee's stand, Musashi burst into tears, stretching out her hand in despair, "My golden ribbon...!!"

At this point, the host, Lillian, had already realized what was happening.

Like the three judges and most of the audience, she initially thought it was a performance added by the production team at the last minute!

But after receiving an anxious denial from the director through her earpiece, she realized something was wrong.

"you--!

She had just opened her mouth, intending to stop these people, when she saw several children run onto the stage again!

Upon closer inspection, they were the same people who had accompanied Xiaoyao during yesterday's stage rehearsal—her teammates!

Now she was even more confused.

What are these people doing here again?

Just as she was at a loss, Ash jumped onto the stage, took a few steps to Team Rocket, and loudly questioned, "Team Rocket! What are you doing here!?"

"You little brat," Meow Meow glanced at him, "This has nothing to do with you! Don't come and cause trouble!"

While speaking, Miao Miao's eyes kept scanning the audience, afraid that the man who made them feel fear would appear. Fortunately, the incident had not been long or short, and the man had not appeared yet!

This also allowed it to breathe a sigh of relief.

However, it dared not waste any more time. With a flick of its paw, it had already grasped several smoke bombs in its hand. As it threw them down forcefully, there were several loud 'bang bang bang' sounds as the smoke bombs exploded, and in an instant, a large amount of thick white smoke spread across the entire stage!

At this point, even if Harry were slow to realize it, he would know he had been tricked.

He jumped onto the stage, chased into the white smoke, looked up at the Team Rocket trio who had already been lifted off the ground by ropes, and shouted, "Wait! Jessie Bian! Give me back my Pokémon!!"

But the only response he received was the mocking laughter of the meowing cat.

"You're just too stupid, meow! You can't blame anyone else for this!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Meow Meow pressed some switch, and with a loud 'boom,' a huge hole was blown open in the thick ceiling of the golden venue. Instantly, a strong blast of cold air rushed into the venue, messing up everyone's hair.

Amidst the wild laughter of Kojiro and Meowth, the Team Rocket trio's rope reached the top and they disappeared without a trace.
