Pokémon, who made him the gym leader?

Chapter 42 This elf doesn't look easy to deal with.

"Wow~ This elf looks fierce...wait, what?"

Ash stared at Drapion in amazement, then picked up his Pokédex and aimed it at Drapion to check the Pokémon's information.

but……

No data available.

Ash paused for a moment when he saw the font displayed on the Pokédex.

"Your Pokédex hasn't been updated, has it? This is Drapion from the Sinnoh region. You can't view Pokédex entries from the Kanto region."

Seeing this, Eileen smiled and handed her Pokédex to Ash.

The Pokédex also varies. If it hasn't been upgraded to the National Pokédex, you can basically only view the Pokémon of your current region in each region's Pokédex.

"If you're from Pallet Town, you can have Professor Oak upgrade you when you have time, or you can spend some money to hire a professional to upgrade you."

"oh oh……"

Xiao Zhi scratched his head; he really didn't know that.

"Drip~ Drapion, Poison/Dark type, Scorpion Pokémon"

Characteristic: Sniper

Special moves: Cross-shaped scissors, cross-shaped poison blade, sneak attack on vital points, deadly poison, pin missile, poison dart, earthquake, rockfall...

Description: Possesses exceptional physical strength; even without using potent poison, she can disorient her opponents using her formidable power.

This Dragon Scorpion looks really strong!

"Poison, evil attributes... this combination of attributes is excellent."

Xiao Gang rested his chin on his hand, deep in thought.

"This attribute combination is only weak to ground, so of course it's excellent, and it looks like it's going to be very difficult to deal with."

Xiao Lan replied casually, curiously examining the Dragon King Scorpion. This Dragon King Scorpion wasn't actually very tall, only about 1.5 meters in height.

However, this only refers to its height. Drapion's body length is at least three meters, and its upper body can be tilted back. Visually, Drapion is also considered a medium to large-sized Pokémon.

"It's mainly Poison Spikes, there are currently Poison Spikes cast by Arbok on the field."

Eileen spoke softly with a gentle, polite smile.

Poison Crystal?

Xiaoxia and Xiaozhi both looked at Erin with puzzled expressions, while Xiaolan and Xiaogang seemed to be deep in thought.

"You'll see when you keep watching."

Eileen smiled without saying a word. The Toxic Spikes tactic is not popular at all. Even the Fuchsia Gym Leader, Ajax, who specializes in Poison-type attacks, has hardly ever used Toxic Spikes.

This has resulted in the general public having a very shallow impression of the Poison Diamond.

After all, all Pokémon can learn hundreds of moves in total, but only a small number are actually used in actual battles.

Often, in a battle, you might only need one or two moves if they work well.

But today, Poison Crystal will definitely become famous!

……

"Dragon King Scorpion, Pin Missile!"

Guxin took the initiative to attack, and the scorpion pincers on both sides of the head of the Dragon King Scorpion, which resembled a giant scorpion monster, flashed with white light and swung heavily.

Countless tiny white beams of light shot through the air toward Pikachu, covering a vast area. From Pikachu's perspective, these missile-like beams almost filled the space in front of him.

Bug-type Pin Missile!

"Pikachu, jump and unleash a 100,000-volt attack!"

Crimson said in a deep voice. He was still a little concerned about the Poison Spike. If he remembered correctly, it seemed to be a poison-type crowd control move.

Although Crimson's talent is monstrous, he is, after all, just a trainer who has only been a trainer for less than half a year.

He hasn't faced enough opponents yet, and he grows through each tough battle. But Crimson hasn't challenged Ajay yet, and Guxin is the first excellent and powerful Poison-type trainer he's faced.

Moreover, Ah-Ju doesn't have the habit of using poison caltrops.

Pikachu leaped lightly and nimbly, its cheeks crackling with electricity.

100,000 volts!

Golden currents shot out to meet the overwhelming barrage of missiles and pinpoint fire.

Rumble!

The 100,000 volts collided violently with the missile needle, and the golden current and white beam of light clashed wildly and began to explode violently, with thick smoke and dust filling the air.

Although the initial power of the Pin missile is not strong, it is a volley missile, and once enough Pin missiles are accumulated, their power will be outstanding.

A strong wind and gusts of air swept through the area, causing Crimson and Guxin's hair and clothes to sway incessantly.

"This Dragonscorpion is stronger than the Arbok from before." Red eyes narrowed slightly as he confirmed this.

Without a doubt, just from this one missile, he could confirm that this Dragon Scorpion's direct combat strength was definitely stronger than that Arbok, and probably much more difficult to deal with!

Crimson pondered tactics, but the next moment...

As the Thunderbolt ended, Pikachu's small body landed, but the instant it landed, a strange, deep purple poisonous light instantly spread across Pikachu's entire body.

"Pikachu..."

Pikachu bent over in pain, its entire body filled with that chilling, deep purple poisonous mist.

This is the corrosive effect of poison caltrop!

"What is this?!?!"

Those around were quite surprised to see this.

"Pikachu!" The crimson eyes changed slightly.

Is it a poison caltrop?

"Dragon King Scorpion, Needle Missile!" Gu Xin's lips curled up slightly.

"long~!"

The Dragon King Scorpion let out a deep growl, and its two enormous pincers swung once more.

The densely packed white missile needle beams shot out like arrows of light.

"Pikachu! Get out of the way!"

Red shouted at Pikachu without hesitation.

Although the Bug-type Pin Missile is not super effective against Pikachu, Pikachu's defense is not outstanding. If it gets hit by the Pin Missile, it will be a significant blow to Pikachu.

Pikachu endured the pain of the poison spikes and struggled to get back up.

Boom boom boom!

A barrage of missiles exploded across the ground, but Pikachu, who was almost hit at the beginning, quickly recovered from the poison spikes' corrosive effect and skillfully dodged the remaining missiles.

"Volt Attack!"

The control effect of the poison crystals is always present, and Crimson suspects that the poison crystal erosion will be triggered again, so they must finish the battle quickly.

"Pikachu Pikachu Pikachu!!"

Pikachu moved its limbs rapidly, its cries growing louder and louder, and its entire body glowed with an extremely dense layer of electricity as it launched an unstoppable charge at Drapion.

Electric-type Volt Attack! This is an exclusive move that only Pichu-type Pokémon can learn!

"Dragon King Scorpion, a sneak attack on vital points!"

Drapion let out a ferocious growl at the charging Pikachu, its two pincers glowing with a purplish-black light, and instead of retreating, it advanced to meet Pikachu head-on.

Dark-type attacks strike vital points!

Pikachu, having reached the front of Dracovish, leaped heavily and slammed into Dracovish's head.

A sneak attack on vital points vs. a high-voltage attack!

The two purplish-black scorpion pincers collided heavily with Volt's attack.

boom! !

With a muffled sound, the next moment, an incredibly powerful, materialized wave of energy emanated from the center of the collision between the two elves.

Scattered electric currents shot out, their golden and black light dazzlingly bright.

However, the stalemate didn't last long, and Dracovish's sneak attacks on vital points gradually became unsustainable as Pikachu charged in.

Volt attack is extremely powerful!

Draconis resisted with all its might, but ultimately could not withstand the impact of the Volt Attack. Its vital points were breached, and the Volt Attack slammed into Draconis's face.

The Dracovish roared in pain, its entire body nearly knocked over by the tiny Pikachu, and it stumbled back several steps before regaining its balance.

This volt attack was no small blow.

"So handsome!"

Ash exclaimed excitedly, his eyes sparkling. Pikachu was indeed very strong! Even such a large scorpion was no match for Pikachu!

"Wow, that's impressive, but so what?"

Guxin raised an eyebrow and looked at Pikachu with a half-smile.

Pikachu, which was knocked back by the recoil from the attack, landed, but as soon as it landed, a surge of electricity lit up its body – the reaction force of the Volt Attack.

But that's not all. The ground beneath Pikachu's feet glowed purple, and a terrifying, deep purple poisonous light instantly filled Pikachu's body.

"Pikachu..."

Pikachu painfully closed its eyes and curled up its body. The recoil from the Volt attack and the corrosive effects of the Poison Spikes arrived at the same time, causing great pain.

"..." Crimson brows furrowed slightly, as expected, the poison darts would not only be triggered once.

"Dragon King Scorpion!"

Guxin decisively seized the opportunity.

With a low growl, the Dracovish lowered its head and, under the astonished gazes of the crowd, suddenly extended its tail and lashed out at Pikachu with lightning speed.

The pincers were too fast, and Pikachu had just been hit by the counterattack and poison spikes, so it couldn't react in time and was directly clamped by the pincers.

"Pikachu!"

His crimson eyes narrowed.

The Dragon King Scorpion slowly raised its pincers, its two pincers waving defiantly.

Pikachu struggled to break free of its pincers, but Drapion's pincers were very strong, holding Pikachu firmly in place and preventing it from escaping.

"Pikachu! Thunderbolt!"

"Stop it! Cross-shaped poison blade!"

Pikachu's cheek sacs crackled with electricity, but Drapion was prepared.

The scorpion's pincers, glowing with purple light, crossed and swung heavily, unleashing a cross-shaped purple light blade that struck the lifted Pikachu squarely.

Bang!

The cross-shaped poison blade exploded perfectly on Pikachu's body, and the intense pain made Pikachu groan in agony, and the electricity even stopped for a moment.

Red frowned even more upon seeing this, and the 100,000 Volts was interrupted!

"Dragon King Scorpion!"

The next moment, Drapion slammed Pikachu heavily onto the ground.

The pincers, carrying Pikachu, made a heavy, intimate contact with the ground. The ground even seemed to tremble because Drapion had exerted so much force.

Pikachu looked extremely pained. Although it wasn't a special move, such a brute force attack was still very painful for its body.

But the next second, a chilling purple light surged from the ground again, and the poisonous light from the poison spikes immediately filled Pikachu's body.

"Pikachu...!"

Pikachu let out a painful scream; this was the third time that Poison Spikes had attacked it!

"this……"

Ash and his friends were completely stunned!

"earthquake!"

Drapion finally released Pikachu, but the pincers it had just raised fell heavily down the next second.

Earthquakes on the ground!

Rumble!!!

The battlefield trembled violently, and tangible earthquake shockwaves rippled forward.

The first to be hit was Pikachu, who was very close by.

The earthquake shook Pikachu, who was struggling to get up, but it collapsed again in pain. The restrained earthquake had caused it too much damage.

After the earthquake, Pikachu finally succumbed and fell unconscious.
