Pokémon, Ash is going to become a perfect man from now on.

It agreed with Ash's words and made up its mind to use its existing power to protect the species that it had finally found!

"Roar!!!"

The powerful dragon roar instantly swept across the entire Dragonite Island, even blowing away the dark clouds in the sky!

The dragons living on the island initially cowered and lay on the ground, but they soon discovered that the terrifying pressure not only did not harm them, but also transformed into a special force, causing their dragon blood to surge and leap!

In an instant, all the dragons felt their energy surge. The young dwarf dragons began to shed their skin involuntarily, and the dragon dragons collided with each other, soaring into the sky after performing the dragon dance!

At the same time, the entire Dragonite Island was filled with a burst of white light, and more than half of the dragons directly evolved!

This also includes Ash's Charmander, which not only extended sharper and larger claws than before, but its entire body also grew much taller, evolving into an even more majestic Charmeleon with this power!

Ash himself, after a surge of unusual excitement, heard a notification from the managing spirit…

Chapter Thirty-Three: Hakron, Dancing in the Air!

"Great! Charmeleon, you've evolved!"

Ash was overjoyed to see the deep red dragon-shaped Pokémon in front of him.

Charmander was already on the verge of evolution, and Ash was recently looking for an opportunity to make it evolve. However, it unexpectedly encountered the opportunity with Dragonite, which resulted in a near-perfect improvement!

It was already quite strong and healthy, but after evolving into Charizard, its size doubled, and it was even comparable to the Dragonite on the island!

With its sharp claws and wild eyes, it's like Groudon from next door has wandered into the wrong movie set!

If it continues to develop at this pace, when it finally evolves into a fully-fledged Charizard, it will definitely not be overshadowed by those wild Charizards in the valley!

In short, looking up at the Charmeleon that was already much taller than him, Ash was completely satisfied.

Compared to the boost Charmeleon received, the hints Ash received were practically nonexistent.

'Attention! The wish of the giant Dragonite has been fulfilled! The protagonist has been baptized by power and gained the ability to control dragons (currently developing).'

See? It's just "in the process of development," without even a specific timeframe. What's the point of saying that?

However… the so-called power of dragon control should be another special ability that A-du mastered in the special episode, and it is unknown whether the dragon-controlling race in this world possesses it.

Ash thought to himself that if this thing continued to develop, he might be able to find an opportunity to study it when he traveled to Mokum City, the capital of Tokyo.

As for now, he should focus on the task at hand... after all, he finally made it to Dragonite Island!

The shed skins and scales of Dratini and Dragonair are definitely worth collecting... At the same time, Ash can't possibly resist the powerful pseudo-legendary creatures of Kanto.

"This is amazing! This is the first time I've ever seen Dratini and Dragonair evolve!" Brock exclaimed, looking around. "But... isn't the change from Dragonair to Dragonite a bit too drastic?"

Anyone who has seen the evolution chain from Dratini to Dragonite should have had this question to some extent.

Both Dratini and Dragonair are snake-like Pokémon; the former is small in size, but becomes elegant and slender after evolving.

However, after its complete evolution, Dragonite has a thick and sturdy body, and it has grown limbs and wings on top of its serpentine body.

Another embarrassing point is that Dragonite is actually shorter than its pre-evolution Dragonair…

This is why Xiaogang has never seen Milotic; otherwise, he would definitely think that Dragonair evolving into Dragonite might be a mistake.

However, his question reminded Ash of something related to the original work.

"Perhaps the reason for this evolution is driven by need," Ash said meaningfully. "When Dragonair finds something it must embrace, it will naturally evolve limbs."

"Something you have to hug?" Brock paused for a moment, looking around at the Dragonite around him, and noticed that they seemed to really enjoy hugging each other.

As for Ash, he has already started wandering around the island.

Guided by the spirit of the original work, he's searching for those Dragonairs that want to fly but can't... Of course, if he can't find them, he can also pick a Dratini and start conquering it from scratch~

Compared to going to the Wild Area later and separating the Dragonair mother and her cub, or taking them both away and snatching them from Caesar's hands, capturing them on Dragonite Island was obviously less of a psychological burden.

"Hey, there actually is one?"

Luckily, Ash actually saw a Dragonair learning to fly on a beach.

When Ash found it, it was flapping its small wings on both sides of its head, but because its wings could not expand, it always fell down after only a meter of air each time.

"Waaah..." Hakron fell to the ground again, covered in dust and grievance, clearly feeling discouraged.

It was really frustrating. It was at the same level as its companions, but it could only watch helplessly as the others flew into the sky, circled around a few times, and evolved into Dragonite.

Looking at myself, all I could do was thrash around on the ground.

This isn't flying; it's just a water splash without any water...

"Hakron, are you having trouble?" Ash asked with concern as he leaned closer. "If you want to learn to fly, how about I give you some special training?"

"Huh?" Hakron was taken aback. It looked at the human in front of it who was smiling confidently and was a little unsure whether to believe him.

"Let me give it a try, maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised." Ash continued to volunteer, "Actually, the reason you can't fly is because you're missing a special move. Your companions can fly because they spread their wings with the help of Dragon Dance, but you haven't learned Dragon Dance yet, so naturally you can't fly."

"Huh?" After listening to Ash's logical analysis, Dragonair finally chose to believe him and hurriedly asked how to learn Dragon Dance.

"Coincidentally, I have some experience in practicing dragon dance. Let me have Charizard demonstrate for you first."

As he spoke, Ash gestured to Charmeleon, which then used the explosive power of its legs to leap up suddenly, performing several somersaults in the air before landing heavily on the beach with a powerful gust of air!

boom!

The impact of landing, carrying the power of Charizard, scattered in all directions. The surrounding sand particles were constantly flying under the action of wind pressure, and even made the Dragonair unconsciously close its eyes.

"Did you see that clearly? The key to Dragon Dance is the rotation of your entire body. You need to jump upwards as much as possible and spin your body vigorously in the air." Ash explained in detail, while encouragingly looking at Dragonair and gesturing for it to try it.

"Whoosh..." Hakuron leaped up with some doubt, but unlike Charmeleon, it didn't have four limbs, so it didn't jump high enough and fell down before it could even turn once.

"Don't be discouraged, try again." Ash channeled a bit of Viridian Power into Dragonair and continued to encourage it, "Use your tail to jump. If it's too difficult, use a move like Water Tail to propel yourself up."

"Whoosh!" Trying again, Hakuryu slammed its tail, still dripping with water, onto the sand. This time it bounced up even higher and finally managed to complete a spin.

"Come on, try again!" "Waaah!"

Ash kept encouraging Dragonair, and the latter kept trying. Finally, after a series of jumps and falls, Dragonair achieved its highest jump to date!

It began to spin excitedly in the air, round and round, its elegant dance seemingly creating a mysterious airflow that lifted its entire body into the air!

"Hakuron, now's the time!"

"Woo!"

Awakened by Ash's voice, Dragonair abruptly stopped its Dragon Dance, and instead stretched out its wings on both sides of its head to the fullest extent!

Chapter Thirty-Four: Standoff, Salvation Shot!

"Woo?"

Having just spread its wings, Hakkarosaurus seemed somewhat incredulous.

It tentatively flapped its wings twice, and after sensing the rising airflow, it gradually became excited and began to circle and fly continuously in the air.

In the end, it simply swooped down and wrapped its entire body around Ash.

"Ha, that's good." Ash was also very happy that he could help this Dragonair.

To be honest, that anime was pretty bad, but the pets they tamed were all incredibly appealing...

"Woo!" Just as the man and the dragon were interacting intimately, a long cry for help suddenly rang out from afar!

A Dragonite is in danger!

"Woo! Woo!"

Upon hearing his companion's cry for help, Hakron became extremely anxious and immediately wanted to rush to the rescue.

It originally intended to ride Ash, but after rubbing against Ash a few times, it discovered that its skin was too smooth and Ash could not ride it at all.

"You go first, I have other ideas, it won't be too long after you," Ash quickly advised Hakron.

Hearing Ash say this, Dragonair was conflicted, but his concern for his companions prevailed, and he took off and left alone.

"Brock, go find the other Dragonite and then take our Pokémon to provide support. I'll take Squirtle and go check things out first." As he spoke, Ash took out Squirtle's Poké Ball and took off his trench coat and vest.

The other option, of course, is to use Squirtle. The place where Dragonite got into trouble isn't far from here, and it wouldn't take long to swim there.

...

Meanwhile, on the sea off Dragonite Island, three cloaked 'mysterious figures' were sitting on the outer deck of a Magikarp submarine, talking to themselves.

"Pretending to be shipwrecked and then luring Dragonite over, what a successful operation, meow~"

The short, demonic cat looked smugly to its side, where there was a simple cage made of floating boards and steel bars, but it was holding a Guandu quasi-god with a wronged look on his face.

"I didn't expect things to go so smoothly." The mysterious man pulled back his cloak, revealing himself to be Kojiro.

"Of course, haven't I told you that I'm a veteran actress?" Musashi said with a smug look on her face.

Sometimes, you really have to admire the protagonist's persistence, and of course, their incredible luck.

Ash clearly set off with the giant Dragonite, but Team Rocket managed to follow them all the way in their Magikarp submarine, even managing to find the location of Dragonite Island.

The most outrageous thing is that they even pretended to have encountered a shipwreck and tricked a Dragonite that came to help!

It's like a god from the Guandu realm! It didn't even have a chance to resist before it was caught in a cage. If this gets out, people will laugh their heads off.

Its level of humiliation is basically second only to the tragic experience of the mighty North Wind being dragged away by a tattered net.

Just as Team Rocket was figuring out how to take Dragonite away, the Dragonair that had learned to fly arrived and glared at them angrily.
