Pokémon: My Bonds has a big problem

Ange closed her eyes and guessed Xiaoxia's thoughts.

So, Ange immediately gave the order: "Squirtle, break the shell twice!"

It is necessary to increase the speed as much as possible. Squirtle needs enough speed and agility to dodge the next attack.

Ange wanted to see Squirtle get a lesson, but that didn't mean he wanted to let that Squirtle lose so easily.

Squirtle blinked. He didn't know why Ange gave such an order. After all, if he broke out of his shell twice more, a normal battle wouldn't be difficult enough for him. Of course, the danger was also quite high.

However, it still listened to Angge's words. Trusting Angge's judgment is one of Squirtle's common sense.

The shadow of the broken turtle shell flashed twice.

A drizzle of rain also fell from the sky. Apparently, Gyarados controlled the intensity of the rain prayer, mainly to take care of the audience who came to watch the battle.

The excitement of the battle also made their cheers and cheers rise one after another, which was very intense. However, for the four people on the battle platform, their cheers were meaningless. Everyone's attention was focused on the opponent and teammates, and other than that, they were completely focused.

"Gyarados, use Storm!"

Misty gave Gyarados an order. She didn't create Rainy Day just to strengthen Gyarados's existing water skills. She knew that Squirtle could also benefit from Rainy Day's amplification.

And Misty also knew that Squirtle could continue to break out of its shell, so these single attacks were unlikely to achieve anything.

It must be said that this Squirtle was one of the most agile Pokémon she had ever seen. But unfortunately, such mobility was achieved at the cost of its vulnerable defense.

Moreover, its attack power is not very strong, and it is even difficult to cause effective damage to Gyarados. After all, it is Squirtle, and it is still subject to great limitations.

"Jenny..."

Squirtle looked at the violent air currents coming at him, and instantly understood what Angge meant when he asked him to break out of his shell again. If Squirtle was still at his original speed, he wouldn't even have a chance to dodge the attack.

"Jenny!"

Squirtle's dodging ability and reaction speed are still unexpectedly strong.

But now, Squirtle can clearly feel the drawbacks of his own fighting style.

"Jenny..."

While dodging Storm's attacks again and again, as well as the occasional waterfall and surf attacks, Squirtle remembered Ang's expression after he defeated Rhyno.

Ange should have anticipated such a situation.

Squirtle trusts Angge very much, and it also understands that if Angge had explained it directly to it at that time, even if it agreed with what Angge said, it would not take the initiative to think about how to correct it.

But now that it has experienced this, it understands its own problems even without being pointed out. Different choices bring completely different effects.

At least now, Squirtle will think about how to take the initiative to seek change.

"Jenny!"

Squirtle looked at Gyarados who was using the surfing skill and standing on the crest of the wave, and his eyes became much more resolute.

Ange looked at Squirtle's expression, and his eyes were somewhat moved. He knew that next, it was time for Squirtle to show him his determination.

"Jenny!!!"

"Roar!!!"

Squirtle kicked hard and flew upwards. A strong cold wind lingered in his hands, as if he could freeze everything in front of him at any time. Gyarados roared, rode the huge waves, and smashed down at Squirtle.

"boom!!!"

After the two sides collided, the result was obvious.

Without any room to dodge, Squirtle made a desperate charge towards Gyarados, and naturally fell into a disadvantage. He was directly knocked away.

However, Gyarados condensed a stream of water and stretched it towards Squirtle, as if ready to catch Squirtle and save it from a second impact.

Ange's movements were faster. He used his superpowers to catch Squirtle and pulled him back to his side.

"Jenny."

Squirtle is in a very bad mental state and is on the verge of coma.

Ange understood what Squirtle said and said softly, "Don't worry, I already know how to help you strengthen your strength. Relax a little. You can definitely keep your current tactics, but we also need to improve them."

Ange had a faint smile on her face, which made Squirtle relax for a while, and then...

Then he fainted.

"J...Ni..."

"If we look at the long term, we still have countless opportunities to win."

Ange said with a smile.

Looking up, Ange saw Misty and Gyarados approaching.

"If there is a chance, we would like to have another challenge."

Ange said to Xiaoxia very seriously. This is not only his idea, but also Squirtle's idea.

Xiaoxia was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that this would be Ange's first sentence after the battle.

However, she smiled brightly.

"Of course, your challenge is always welcome."

"Next time, we will fight you with a brand new look."

Ange said seriously.

Chapter 182 Path Selection

Ange got the blue badge.

Of course, Misty recognized Squirtle's strength, and also recognized Angge's training and command capabilities.

Without Angge's command, Xiaoxia was sure that with Squirtle's own reaction ability, it would be impossible for him to use that tactic so easily.

So, in the final analysis, it was Angge himself who commanded Squirtle to fight such a battle.

Xiaoxia felt that giving Ange a badge would not be an injustice to the badge.

Ange was not polite when he took the badge.

The decision on issuing badges itself is up to the gym leader, as long as he makes sure he can withstand the scrutiny of the league.

As long as it can withstand scrutiny, no one will have an objection even if the badge is left at the door for anyone to take.

Ange didn't talk much with Xiaolan. He had gained enough from Xiaolan.

With every gym leader he met, Ange understood a little more about the nature of the Pokémon League.

Based on what Ange had seen and heard so far, he didn't think the Ranger League was much more noble than the Pokémon League.

From this point of view, Ange can be said to have offended a large number of forest rangers.

In their eyes, rangers seem to be nobler than trainers because of their behavioral attributes and beliefs.

The most important thing is that this is not only recognized by the rangers. Even most trainers, even those at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings Champions, will respect the rangers.

They left the Cerulean Gym with the defeated Squirtle. When they left the stage, the audience in the auditorium gave them thunderous applause without hesitation.

Regardless of whether Squirtle wins or loses, for these viewers, they all had a wonderful viewing experience.

They recognized Squirtle's strength and achievements.

After the treatment, Squirtle followed Ange and looked at the audience cheering for him. There seemed to be a different look in his eyes.

"Why do you want to become stronger?"

"Becoming stronger is for the sake of becoming stronger. Becoming stronger is my destiny."

This was the answer it gave to Angge when it met him. But now, Squirtle seemed to have other answers in his mind.

Ange didn't know Squirtle's mood changes at this time, but he knew that his original idea could be realized. Squirtle must have undergone some kind of change in his heart.

Such a transformation can serve as a good entry point, allowing Angge to persuade Squirtle to change his fighting style with less effort.

After returning to the Pokémon Center, Ange and the others took a short break. Ange received the energy cube that Xiaokong sent to her from Miss Joy.

At first, Xiaokong didn't know Ange's whereabouts. He also didn't know where Ange had settled. He only knew that Ange was traveling in the Kanto region, looking for his own path.

So Xiao Kong found the top-notch refrigerated packaging box from Han Qianci. This thing was originally used to store rare energy stones, or other energy condensates or substances.

However, Xiaokong filled them all with energy blocks and sent them to the Pokémon Center located in each of the eight major gyms in the Kanto region.

No matter which gym Ange challenges, she will be able to obtain supplies from her sister at the Pokémon Center.

Therefore, the Pokémon did not delay the intake of high-quality energy cubes, and there was no malnutrition or excessive energy consumption.

At the dinner table, Ange said to Squirtle seriously, "Geng Gui has found his own way. Learning from Giratina is the best way."

Gengar raised the fork in his hand high, narrowed his big eyes, and the corners of his mouth almost stretched to the back of his head.

"Geng Gui!"

Angge and Squirtle ignored the smug Gengar and continued to look at each other.

"You chose not to evolve at the beginning, to increase your energy level, and then to rely on your agility to win as much as possible. This method is actually quite good."

This path is passable, but generally not many Squirtles will take this path.

"After all, there is a limit to your flexibility."

Ange pointed out the most critical issue.

"Destructive power can be increased through skills, energy levels, or other methods. It's not difficult."

"Defense can be trained. Although the upper limit is lower, it can create a certain margin of error for you. And we have already given up defense, so even if we are a little weak in this aspect, it is completely acceptable."

"But the most important and core issue is flexibility and speed."

Ange said seriously: "You can't fly, and you can't teleport. So when facing AOE, you have no power to resist."

Maybe there are AOE attacks that have no blind spots, but Ange has never seen one.

Therefore, in his understanding, most attacks have blind spots to be found.

It's like the surfing that ultimately caused Squirtle to fail. The top is its blind spot. But Squirtle can't get up there. It can't fly, so it can't reach that blind spot.

"The Dream can fly, is small and agile, and it can take this route."

Menghuan didn't expect Ange to suddenly cue it. But it nodded, admitting that this path was suitable for it, but unfortunately...
