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

However, its fur is a bit prickly, making it not a good object for hugging.

Just then, a faint sound came from the bushes behind Ash and his friends, and the hurried footsteps grew closer and closer.

Dozens of fully armed Team Rocket members rushed out and quickly surrounded Ash and his friends.

"Haha, Zapdos, where do you think you're going? Come back with us obediently..."

"what!"

"Yamado, what are you suddenly yelling at?"

"what!!!"

It turns out that Yamato and Kosaburo had followed Zapdos's trail all the way here.

But as soon as they saw Ash, their legs went weak.

"We meet again, Yamato, this is the third time." Ash was quite happy to see two familiar faces.

"It's Kosaburo! We've known each other for so long, why would you call me by the wrong name!"

This time, Kosaburo and Yamato are not planning to run away again.

They are now carrying a fully armed force, and Team Rocket's technology is the best in the world!

This is the confidence that comes with their superior skills.

"Surround them immediately and capture Zapdos and all the Pokémon of those brats and girls!"

Yamad immediately threw out a small square device, and in an instant, a specially made large net trapped the Zapdos that couldn't react in time.

"Hmph, the power absorption device, the kinetic energy recovery system, and the super-powerful alloy armor can absorb all Pokémon's moves, plus the most powerful neutron destruction bullet..."

"Our equipment is already invincible. Let's see what you can do against us this time, kid!"

"Hahahaha!" Kosaburo laughed confidently, believing that he had blocked all of Ash's killer moves.

Then Mewtwo came out of the Poké Ball.

"oh--!"

"Well--!"

"what--!"

The entire Rockets team was kissed, hugged, and lifted high in the air by Mewtwo, enjoying a close-up collision service high in the sky.

Mewtwo pinched its three fingers together again.

The Rockets members were immediately bounced up and down like balls.

He was quickly thrown around, feeling dizzy and disoriented, and passed out.

[Ding! Mewtwo: Affection +1; Intimacy +1]

"Sigh, they're always so forgetful of what they've learned." Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia immediately went over and tied them up one by one.

At the same time, they specifically singled out Kosaburo and Yamato and made them lead the way.

—Psychic Power—

"Why haven't those two idiots, Kosaburo and Yamato, come back yet?"

At the Rockets' makeshift base on the mountaintop, Lance tossed aside the handkerchief he was holding for skincare; he was getting impatient.

Just as he was about to make another call to urge them on, a guard finally came in to report.

"Reporting to Lord Lance, Captain Amado and the others have returned."

"Get up, my loyal guard. Have you seen Zapdos?" Lance quickly went over and gently helped his subordinate, who was kneeling on one knee, to his feet.

"Yes, they've already been locked up in special cages by Amado and his men."

"However, it seems that the main force is still behind, and only the two captains have returned with the spoils of war."

"It's alright, those two are just trying to take credit. Go and notify the others to prepare to close the net."

"Yes!"

Once his men left, Lance immediately opened the tent and went out to greet the Zapdos he had been longing for.

But as soon as he lifted the curtain, he was greeted by Ash's big fist.

Plop!

Lance immediately lost consciousness.

Team Rocket members around them were immediately alarmed and released their Pokémon.

"Who exactly are you?"

"You'll find out soon enough, Pikachu, Mewtwo!"

Mewtwo entered the battle again, and Team Rocket's Pokémon were instantly controlled. Pikachu then unleashed a Thunderbolt to finish them off.

Meanwhile, Zapdos, which had been pretending to be caged, immediately broke free and unleashed its furious lightning bolts across Team Rocket's camp.

The entire camp was filled with crackling sounds.

Soon, Team Rocket was completely wiped out by the combined attacks of Mewtwo, Zapdos, and Pikachu.

Xiaoxia also found the wild Pokémon and Miss Yuza tied up in the camp and quickly rescued them.

"Thank you so much, brave young men and women. I really don't know what would have happened without you this time."

After being rescued, Ms. Yuza quickly expressed her sincere gratitude to Ash and his friends.

"It's alright, this is what a qualified League Trainer should do."

Still spouting his lovely little auspicious phrases, Ash didn't pay much attention to Yuza, instead focusing his attention on the Team Rocket group.

"Miss Yu Sha, could you please refrain from notifying Officer Jenny to come and receive them for the time being?"

Is there a problem?

"No, I just think it would be a waste not to make good use of the fact that so many Rockets teams are here."

Although I don't really understand it.

But when Ash, who had picked up the legendary crystal and was preparing to call Officer Jenny before diving to the bottom of the lake to reset it, heard his savior Ash say this, he could only postpone all of that.

Upon seeing Yusha agree, Ash immediately rubbed his hands together excitedly.

Ash came in such a hurry not just to help Zapdos, but because he's been incredibly bored lately.

They hadn't encountered a large group of wild Pokémon in a very, very long time, and Ash was itching to get his hands on one.

Although there are quite a few wild Electric-type Pokémon here, they have just been forcibly captured by Team Rocket.

Since it's not suitable for combat right now, we'll have to let Team Rocket take over.

Ask Kosaburo to help find the leader of this group, and then slap him a few times to wake him up.

"You're the leader here, right?" Ash asked fiercely, glaring at Lance like an angry Vajra.

He was immediately stunned and dared not lie.

"No...that's right, I'm Lance, a manager from the Rockets..."

Suddenly, Lance seemed to recognize Ash.

"Could you be that legendary, monstrous muscleman Ash who's always been at odds with Team Rocket?!"

"What kind of weird title is this!" Xiaoxia burst into laughter, clutching her stomach as soon as she heard it.

Ash quickly slapped Lance a few more times, "You should be Ash, the future Pokémon Master, right?!"

Lance's once handsome face instantly swelled up like a pig's head, and he could only nod repeatedly.

"Alright, pretty boy, now I need your help with my cultivation!"

"Let's have some fun now!"

"Hmm, what are you going to do?" For some reason, Lance suddenly had a bad feeling.

What followed was the start of a nightmare for the Team Rocket members.

Ash first prepared a large amount of stamina recovery potions, and then divided them into two teams.

Then, under the watchful gaze of the Zapdos in the sky, they were arranged to battle against their own Pokémon.

Ash will only let each of them go after battling them at least ten times.

This is the resolve of a demon warrior!

"Compared to regular training, battling is definitely the best way to train Pokémon!"

"Oh, please let us go~"

Ash only stopped when everyone in Team Rocket and their Pokémon were completely exhausted.

They were relentlessly attacked by Ash for three days and three nights, and every time they lost, they were electrocuted by Zapdos in the sky.

It was incredibly painful, but Team Rocket's Pokémon remained as weak as ever.

Aside from a few captains and Lance's Pokémon being somewhat powerful, the others were basically just released to gain a negligible amount of experience.

Even a novice could take them down in one move.

But when he battled Lance, Ash was surprised to find that his Pokémon battles were quite entertaining.

Or rather...elegant.

Then Lance got really unlucky.

"Um... during a battle, you must maintain a completely relaxed and confident expression, without the slightest hint of tension. This is the prerequisite for displaying elegance..."

Little Black tilted his head, not quite understanding.

Snapped!

Xiao Zhi immediately lashed out with his whip.

"Teach him properly!"

"Waaah~, Mom and Dad, I want to go home~"

Finally, under Ash's relentless pressure, Lance managed to teach Kuro quite a few elegant aristocratic manners.
