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

Fortunately, after being comforted by Ash, it quickly calmed down and began to tell Ash about its experience.

During this time, Ash also gave Lyla a wink, prompting her to send Latios to investigate in the water.

The prerequisite for battle is to know yourself and your enemy. The Water City siblings, who can turn invisible and have the ability to project dreams, are undoubtedly good at gathering intelligence.

As long as Ash keeps Latias by his side, he can experience firsthand everything that Latios has found.

"It's so pitiful..." Seeing Milotic still frowning, Xiaoxia couldn't help but feel extremely distressed. "What happened to it? How did it get so badly injured?"

"It's really strange. Milotic shouldn't live in the waters of Johto, and it doesn't look like a wild Pokémon," Brock said, puzzled.

"It was sent out by its trainer to ask for help," Ash explained. "Its trainer is a local coordinator on Silver Rock Island, and he's currently being held captive in Team Rocket's underwater fortress!"

"The Rockets?!" *N

Everyone was shocked to hear this. Even Ryukia had heard of the evil group that once dominated the Great Kanto.

"It's this group..." Rukia was extremely worried. "Why are they at the bottom of the sea? Are they planning to attack Lugia?!"

"Let's see how things go first; we'll get the footage soon."

hum~

As soon as Ash finished speaking, Latias's eyes emitted a dazzling blue light, and everyone immediately felt as if they were in the middle of the ocean.

Their perspective was currently following Latios as it swam, but it didn't spot any enemies. Instead, it saw a small, silvery-white beast.

“That’s…” “Luggia?!”

All of his companions were taken aback.

Latios was currently diving in a brightly colored coral reef on the seabed. An area of ​​this reef had been cleared out to create a comfortable nest for little Lugia.

At this moment, the little guy was lying sleepily in his nest, his eyes constantly darting towards a certain spot in the sea.

It seemed to be getting sleepy, and after yawning, two glistening tears squeezed out from the corner of its eye.

"Ah, it's so cute~" Upon seeing it, Rukia's eyes immediately turned into hearts, wishing she could dive into the water right away and kiss it.

"It shouldn't be the Lugia we encountered," Xiaoxia said, puzzled. "It looks so small... Could it be Lugia's child?"

“Legendary Pokémon like these shouldn’t be able to reproduce,” Lila said, frowning and shaking her head.

"It is indeed Lugia's child, but I don't know the specifics of what happened." Ash stopped his companions from speculating. "Anyway, we have to go into the water and take a look. Everyone, get your Water-type Pokémon ready."

"Uh... should we go into the water now?" Rukia hesitated a little. "But I haven't changed into my swimsuit yet. My current clothes are so bulky, it'll be really uncomfortable in the water..."

"I think your outfit is light enough," Xiaoxia muttered under her breath.

She hasn't been in a good mood lately because two new girls have joined her team... and both of them are incredibly beautiful and have amazing figures.

Especially with Ryukia's outfit featuring a single stocking and a bare leg on one side, even Xiaoxia, a girl herself, couldn't take her eyes off her.

If this girl were a few years older, reaching the age of an older sister, Xiao Gang would probably be amazed on the spot.

As for now, someone has actually already stealed a few glances...

Oh, man~

"Are you all ready? Let's set off right away!" On the beach of Okinawa Island, Ash and his friends were already on high alert. Milotic, whom they had just treated, also decided to come along and lead the way.

Ash threw five Poké Balls, and Blastoise, Lapras, Magikarp, Totodile, and Feebas fell into the water one after another!

Aside from Pelipper, which is not suited for underwater activities, Ash sent out all the Water-type Pokémon he had caught, which could practically form a team on their own.

"These are all your Pokémon?" Rukia asked, intrigued. "You caught Feebas too? That's great! Its evolved form, Milotic, is perfect for Pokémon Contests!"

As she spoke, she also sent out her own Water-type Pokémon, which was indeed a Milotic!

“Hmm…” Looking at the two equally graceful water snakes in front of him, Ugly Fish couldn’t help but feel a longing in his eyes.

It had heard Ash say more than once that it would become very beautiful, but when exactly would that be...?

"It'll be quick, just be patient a little longer." Ash gently massaged Feebas's forehead, gradually calming the latter down.

"Let's go!" Ash pointed to the sea, and under the power of Poseidon, a fantastic tornado suddenly rose from the sea, enveloping everyone and diving underwater together.

"This is possible... Are you really human?" Seeing that she could move freely underwater and even breathe freely, Rukia was greatly astonished.

"I actually have my doubts too." Ash shrugged indifferently and led the group toward Latios and Lugia.

Meanwhile, in another deep sea, a huge circular underwater fortress was also heading towards Ash and his friends...

Its direction is precisely towards the coral reef where Little Lugia is located!

Chapter 484 Breakthrough: The Underwater Fortress Conquest!

"Reporting to Dr. Dongbo, we are about to arrive at Lugia's location!"

Inside the constantly moving circular fortress, a Team Rocket member who looked like a grunt was earnestly reporting to the old man in the main seat.

"Very good, begin the capture immediately!" the old man in the white coat ordered, while glaring displeasedly at the henchman in front of him. "How many times have I told you, I am Dr. Nanbo, not Dongbo!"

"Yes, Dr. Dongbo, I understand, Dr. Dongbo!" the henchman corrected earnestly...

"Never mind..." The old man's face was full of anger, but now that Lugia was right in front of him, he had no choice but to give up and instead prepare for the capture operation that was about to begin.

Through the computer screen in front of him, he could clearly see the small, silvery-white beast.

With Lucia, a mother, absent, this is a huge opportunity for the Rockets!

The little creature, which had only been born a short time ago, was completely unaware of the danger approaching. Even after the circular fortress drew near, it adorably went closer to take a look.

"Increase the output power of the interference waves!" Dr. Xiba immediately ordered his subordinates, while a greedy smile gradually appeared on his lips.

If we can capture Lugia and use it as leverage, then Lugia himself will be within our grasp!

To carry out this plan, the remnants of Team Rocket, led by Dr. Tobo, had been lying in wait in the waters of the Whirl Islands for a long time, and finally this day had come!

"Very good, almost there." Seeing Lugia's eyelids starting to droop on the screen, Dr. Dongbo couldn't help but smile even more smugly.

This is the power of jamming radio waves that he meticulously researched!

If it's an ordinary Pokémon, it will start to feel dizzy and lightheaded as soon as it enters the range of the electromagnetic waves, and soon it will lose consciousness and be at the mercy of others.

While legendary Pokémon possess strong mental power and are difficult to be affected by radio waves, Lugia is still a newborn. If the power is increased, it will still be affected like it is now!

"Send out the advance team and begin the capture operation!" Seeing that Lugia was too weak to even swim, Professor Siba immediately ordered his men to begin the operation...

Boom! !

But at that moment, his screen suddenly lost the view of the outside world, and at the same time the entire fortress began to shake violently!

"Has someone intruded?!" Old Man Dongbo's expression turned grave...

Meanwhile, in the deep sea outside the fortress, Ash and his friends had already launched a full-scale attack!

As this enormous creature steadily approached Lugia, Latios, which was hiding nearby, certainly didn't miss it. Thanks to its warning, Ash and the others were able to prepare for the attack before they arrived.

When they realized that something was wrong with Lugia and that the fortress was extending its disgusting mechanical tentacles to capture him, they immediately ordered all their companions to launch a full-scale attack!

"Kame!" Blastoise unleashed two powerful water cannons, instantly shattering the mechanical tentacles that were reaching for Lugia.

Blue Crocodile and Xiaoxia's Gyarados followed closely behind, launching a double Waterfall and Crunch attack on the fortress, tearing two huge gaps in the outer metal skin in no time!

Then, his companions charged straight in!

However, for the sake of prudence, Ash did not choose to launch a desperate attack, but instead excluded Rukia from the battle lineup.

"Why should I?" the girl immediately protested. "Even if I'm just a Coordinator, I can still fight."

“This has nothing to do with what kind of trainer you are; it’s simply because you’re not suited for the challenge,” Ash said seriously. “During our battle, you’ll be responsible for getting Lugia to the surface of the water. I’ll leave Lapras and Latias to assist you, and you can also watch the battle through Dream Reflection.”

"Well... alright, then you all be careful." Ryukia wasn't an unreasonable girl; since Ash had already put it that way, she had no choice but to comply, no matter how worried she was.

Just after she brought Lugia to the surface, Ash and his friends rushed into the fortress and began to clear out the enemy's base!

"It's your turn, Pelipper!" After the small team rushed into the dry corridor, Ash immediately sent out his rain flag bearer.

Nowadays, most of the assault teams are water-based. With the Big-Headed Gull bringing rain inside the fortress, the output capabilities of all the teammates will definitely increase dramatically!

Amidst the drizzling rain, the assault team, spearheaded by Blastoise, unleashed a frenzied attack as Blastoises spun high and burst from their shells, leaving no one in their path unscathed!

As Ash's core Water-type character and one of the Kanto Twelve Elders, Blastoise's performance in chaotic battles is even more eye-catching than that of the legendary Latios!

Behind it, Crocodile, Gyarados, and Crystal Onix were equally not to be outdone, rampaging through the corridor side by side!

Also worth mentioning is the Milotic that was rescued; its strength is definitely not weak either.

Not only is his tornado attack remarkable, but he also knows how to activate a mysterious protective shield to help the team defend against status effects.

However, since it was bred by a trainer, it always remembers to wag its tail and wiggle its flippers after each use of a special move…

This habit of always striving to appear beautiful slightly slows down the team's fast-paced attack.

"Hmm..." This behavior was naturally noticed by Feebas in Ash's arms.

In terms of appearance alone, Uglyfish is quite envious of the other...

"Don't just focus on appearance." Ash, who was charging forward, suddenly spoke up to admonish, "Everything I'm doing now is to give you a more perfect physique after you evolve, and I'm also confident that I can raise you to be even more beautiful than that one! But precisely because of this... appearance is the last thing you should care about!"

“Hmm…” Ugly Fish couldn’t help but fall into thought.

Indeed, everything Ash did after capturing Feebas—whether it was mixing Energy Cubes, giving it a full-body massage, or giving it Beautiful Scales—was all in an effort to make it evolve into a more perfect creature.

Ash's plan is to have Feebas evolve with the Beauty Scale after it reaches the Beauty stat. With these multiple benefits, he is absolutely confident that it will evolve into an incredibly dazzling Milotic!
