Pokémon: Starting with Lucario and Gardevoir

Chapter 78 The Strongest Opponent So Far

The fiery horse carried Haoyan and Yasha, and soon they arrived at the top of Chimney Mountain.

On the mountaintop, there is an experimental machine that is still in operation.

There was also a man standing there with his arms crossed in front of his chest and a sinister look on his face.

The rest of the Aqua Fleet members had already fled the mountaintop.

"Kid, you're pretty good. I sent ten men to ambush you, but you ended up ambushing us instead." Di Yi said to Hao Yan as he dismounted from Asha's Flaming Horse.

Hao Yan remained silent, instead observing his surroundings to make sure there were no ambushes.

"Upon arriving here, we immediately began to observe the terrain, proceeding with great caution."

"To fight ten against one and still dare to take the initiative is both bold and decisive."

"In fact, he can turn the tide when Aysa is at a complete disadvantage, which shows he has a great talent for fighting."

Seeing Haoyan cautiously observing his surroundings, Di's sinister eyes revealed a hint of admiration as he said to him, "Don't bother looking anymore, I'm the only one here, everyone else has already left!"

Haoyan ignored him and instead released his Pokémon, including Typhlosion.

He whispered to Lucario and Gardevoir, "Lucario, Gardevoir, check the surroundings for any ambushes."

Lucario and Gardevoir both unleashed their respective energies and were unaware of the ambush.

He shook his head at Haoyan.

"Okay, I understand!" A rare seriousness appeared in Haoyan's eyes.

There was no ambush, just one person.

That means the other party is very confident.

Aysa recognized the man's name as soon as she saw his distinctive bald head, and whispered to Haoyan, "His name is Tide, and he's one of the three top officers of the Aqua Fleet!"

"Mm." Haoyan nodded gently.

"Hey kid, interested in joining our water team?" After observing him, Di was very interested in Haoyan.

The Aqua team is too weak.

They urgently need talent to supplement their team.

Hao Yan chuckled lightly: "Join your naval fleet?"

"For your so-called 'grand ideal'?"

The creature that wanted to absorb Haoyan didn't mind Haoyan's disdain and said to him, "Have you ever thought that although there are many Pokémon in this world, they haven't been discovered by humans yet?"

"However, one thing is certain: Water-type Pokémon are the most numerous and diverse among all types!"

"It's only natural that they need more space to live!"

"In order to expand the living space for Water-type Pokémon, we must create more oceans!"

"Our naval fleet has always strived for this goal!"

"Therefore, I invite you to join our Aqua Team."

These were the words that Wutong said to Shizuku in order to get him to join the Aqua Team.

Hao Yan found Di's rambling and flawed words laughable.

"According to what you're saying, then the number and variety of Dragon and Steel types are very small."

"Shouldn't we create more suitable living spaces for them to protect them?"

Haoyan's refusal was very clear.

"So, there's nothing to talk about?"

Di's face immediately darkened, and then he released his two Pokémon.

One is a beaked gull, and the other is a kappa.

The threat was very strong.

Automatically, the data of the two Pokémon entered Haoyan's mind.

Pokémon: Pelipper

[Attribute]: Flying, Water

[Level]: 63

【Characteristics】: Sharp Eyes (Hit rate changes will not be reduced by the opponent in any way, ignoring the target's evasion rate changes.)

[Description]: The Great Toucan has a yellow beak that makes up most of its body, and its main feather color is white, with blue claws, wingtips and forehead.

... ...

Pokémon: Ludicolo

[Type]: Grass, Water

[Level]: 63

【Feature】: Rain Dish (When it's raining, HP can be slowly restored.)

[Description]: Lucky Kappa looks a bit like a hybrid of a pineapple and a duck.

... ...

Level 63, what incredible strength!

The solemnity in Haoyan's eyes deepened.

This one is the strongest opponent he has ever encountered!

... ...

Chapter 79 Are you sure you want to continue fighting me?

"These two Pokémon are so strong!" Asha judged their strength by the aura of Ludicolo and Pelipper.

"Haoyan, what should we do!" Yasha whispered from the side.

“We don’t need to defeat him. We just need to hold out for a while and wait for the Alliance’s reinforcements to arrive.” Hao Yan comforted Asha, “You, your Rapidash, and Coal Turtle should step back a little and follow my instructions.”

"Ok!"

Yasha is 17 years old, two months older than Haoyan, so she usually calls Haoyan her younger brother in private.

However, when it comes to crucial matters, Haoyan doesn't act like a teenager at all, which makes Yasha feel at ease listening to him.

"Xiaolong, go to Asha's side."

"Xiao Ou, stand next to the Fire Beast."

"Xiao Lu, connect the consciousness of all the Pokémon together." Facing the formidable enemy, Didi, Hao Yan silently deployed his forces.

Di glanced at them from a distance and said with some disdain, "Of all the Pokémon over there, the only one that can rival my Ludicolo and Pelipper is Typhlosion."

"Moreover, Typhlosion is also outmatched by my two Pokémon in terms of type."

"Do you think you can handle it?"

Haoyan ignored the other party, his mind racing as he considered how to proceed.

Be on guard against Di's next move.

"Hmph!" Drizzle commanded with a gloomy face, "Pegasus, use Rain Dance!"

"Lucky Kappa, use the water cannon!"

The gull's wings emitted a wave of energy that quickly made the surrounding air humid.

Immediately, a small dark cloud formed within a 30-meter radius of the great beak, and a light drizzle began to fall from the cloud.

The rain started to intensify.

The Lucky Kappa also began to move, slapping its palms on the ground.

Instantly, the energy within his body surged wildly towards the ground, and a huge column of water gushed out from the ground!

A massive water cannon shot towards the Fire Beast!

Water Cannon is a powerful water-based skill.

In the League's damage calculation, it reaches as high as 110 points.

It is even more powerful when it is raining!

Didi's idea was simple: use Pelipper's rain to increase the power of the water cannon, and then either kill or severely injure the Typhoon.

Without the Fire Beast, Hao Yan and his group will be completely powerless to resist!

However, Hao Yan had already guessed Di's idea after he had Pegasus and Ludicolo make their moves.

While Di was making his move, Haoyan was also directing the Pokémon.

"Rapidfire and Coalossal, both of you, use Sunny Day!"

Rapidash and Torkoal burst forth with boundless energy. Although their levels were not high, their combined power of Sunny Day was no less effective than Pelipper's Rain Dance.

For a moment, the situation on the field became clearly distinct.

On the other side of the rain, dark clouds gathered and the rain continued to fall.

On Haoyan's side, the sun blazed overhead, and the heat surged.

"Xiao Ou, step forward and use Protect!"

Lucario took a step forward, unleashing a white energy shield that blocked Typhlosion's attack before it could launch the water cannon.

While the water cannon is indeed powerful, its power was weakened when it reached Lucario due to the sunny weather.

Furthermore, Lucario's use of Protect prevented it from causing him much damage.

Hao Yan seized the opportunity and immediately commanded: "Fire Beast, now's the time! Use Flamethrower on Ludicolo!"

"Ruby, use Thunderbolt on Pelipper!"

The Fire Beast, already prepared, aimed at Lucky Kappa and unleashed a beam of crimson-gold flame.
