Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

Within three steps, the whip is both accurate and fast!

"null--!"

The furball wanted to say something, but it hadn't finished speaking.

Bulbasaur raised its front leg and slowly stepped on its head.

"puff."

The worm was trampled into the ground, leaving only its two short legs twitching outside, stretched straight out.

Bulbasaur looked down at it, its eyes calm.

"seed?"

"Empty pong, empty pong! Empty pong, empty pong!"

I'm not glaring anymore!

I give up!

I truly admit defeat!

The two little legs kicked even more enthusiastically.

"Pikachu..."

Pikachu perched on Ash's shoulder, its little paws covering its eyes as it peeked through its fingers.

The sneak attack failed and he got trampled instead; it was simply unbearable to watch.

"I'm so sorry! I'm really so sorry!"

Seeing that her furry friend had feigned surrender and then been defeated, Ah Xing's face turned red, and she ran over.

"Usually, my dad is the one who teaches it..."

She muttered to herself, feeling somewhat guilty.

But it must be said, this furry ball has truly mastered the essence of it—

My dad always said that as long as you win, the process doesn't matter; in the end, people will only remember the winner.

The problem is... no one said that losing would be this embarrassing!

"Bulbasaur, let it go."

Ah Xing crouched down and gently patted Bulbasaur's front legs.

Bulbasaur nodded, slowly lifted its foot, and retracted its vine whip.

We won!

Xiao Zhi excitedly raised his fist.

He looked around expectantly, but when he found no one jumping out, he pouted in disappointment.

But soon he beamed again and rushed toward Bulbasaur in a few quick steps.

"Bulbasaur, you did a great job!"

"Seeds~"

Bulbasaur shook its head, looking somewhat tired.

Although it was mild, the aftereffects of the "staring poison" are still there.

Its head was still a little dizzy.

"Oh, by the way, you're still poisoned!"

Ash grabbed Pikachu.

Ignoring its resistance, I casually pulled a pink tree fruit from its body.

"Here, eat this."

He held the berry to Bulbasaur's mouth.

"This is a peach, it's specially for detoxification."

Bulbasaur opened its mouth and swallowed it whole.

I chewed it, and the juice melted in my mouth.

Then it closed its eyes and carefully assessed its physical condition.

"seed?"

It opened its eyes, its expression confused.

"what?"

Ash stared at Bulbasaur.

The little face still had an abnormal purple tinge, showing no signs of fading.

He scratched his head.

"Why can't I solve it?"

"Pikachu?"

Pikachu tilted its head, looking confused.

Could it be broken?

It snatched this from a fellow villager's kennel by the roadside this morning while it was exercising.

It should still be quite fresh.

Seeing this, Xiao Gang came over and bent down to carefully examine Bulbasaur's face.

His brow furrowed slightly.

"Hmm, indeed, in this situation... Ash, I think it's best to use an antidote, right?"

"Antidote...Antidote...I remember Sister Xiaoxia gave me one..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi immediately began rummaging through his backpack.

"found it!"

He pulled out a bottle of special effects spray and sprayed it all over Bulbasaur.

A white mist filled the air.

Bulbasaur stood still and cooperated, closing its eyes and letting him spray.

Finished spraying.

"How about it?"

Bulbasaur opened its eyes, looked down at its paws, and then looked up at Ash.

Her little face still had that purplish look.

"seed?"

"Huh? Still not working?"

Xiao Zhi picked up the bottle and checked the production date.

"It's still within its shelf life?"

Xiaoxia frowned.

"Is this poison so potent that it can't be cured?"

Upon hearing this, Brock, Ash, and Pikachu all looked at Misty at the same time, and then said in unison.

"I don't think I can take it, right?" ×2, "Pikachu!"

After all, it was specifically requested by Xiaoxia's older sister.

Furthermore, Bulbasaur's symptoms of poisoning are not severe.

"That...this poison can't be cured using ordinary detoxification methods."

Hearing the three people's discussion, Ah Xing came forward carrying the dusty, furry ball.

"Empty pong!"

Maoqiu nodded proudly.

Xiao Gang looked up at her.

"It didn't work?"

"Actually... it wasn't poisoned..."

Ah Xing said.

"At least, it's not poisoning in the conventional sense that you're thinking of."

Xiaozhi, Xiaoxia, and Xiaogang exchanged glances.

What does this mean?

Ah Xing began to explain haltingly.

"In fact, the ultimate secret of our Scarlet Dojo lies in the fact that no poison is better than poison."

"Well, since there's no poison involved, there's naturally no way to neutralize it..."

Xiao Gang: "?"

Xiaoxia: "?"

ha?

What are these people talking about?

The two of them looked at Ash together.

But Ash also frowned, looking as if he was trying to understand.

Xiaoxia blinked.
