Wang Yao's Pokémon Journey

"Roar?"

Three-Headed Dragon: Are we almost there? Where is the Lightning Bird?

"Gaou!"

Toucan: Coming soon! Right ahead!

……

boom--!

At this time... with the sound of fire exploding and the signal to assemble coming from behind, the three-headed evil dragon and the armored bird stopped their wings at the same time and turned their heads to look at Yeli Island behind them.

Just a few dozen kilometers away in the sky above Yeli Island, Hunter X’s exclusive assembly order appeared.

"Roar!"

Three-headed dragon: Did you see that? The master is calling us to assemble!

"grind--!"

Armored Bird: But Zapdos is about to run away!

"Gaou! Gaou!"

Toucan: What are you two dawdling about for? Hurry up! Zapdos is right in front!

"Roar……"

Three-headed evil dragon: If you don’t go back you will be scolded, so the dragon ran away first.

"grind……"

Armored Bird: Then I will go back too...

"Gaou! Gaou gaou!"

Big-billed Gull: Hey! Big brother! Big brother! Don't leave! Didn't I say I'd take you to see the Zapdos?

"Roar……"

"grind……"

Three-headed evil dragon and armored bird: Thank you brothers for your help today, but the master is calling us... let's talk next time!

Just like that, after some communication, the two Pokémon of Hunter X chose to follow orders and gave up the Zapdos that was "close at hand".

"Gaou..."

Toucan: Why don’t these two stupid birds follow me... Never mind, I’ll go back first.

……

"What? Are you saying that there are wild Pokémon that are leading you to fly south?" Hunter X waited for a long time before he saw the three-headed dragon and the armored bird that were arriving late.

"Roar……"

"grind……"

"You two brainless idiots!" Hunter X cursed.

boom--! boom--!

The angry Hunter X rewards each of them with a critical hit on the head!

After being severely reprimanded, the two Pokémon, Three-Headed Dragon and Armored Bird, realized that the Gull had deceived them.

"Roar……"

"grind……"

Three-headed dragon, armored bird: the trust between Pokémon! Pokémon's heart is really not the same as before!

"Since someone deliberately sent Pokémon to lure you out of the island... that proves that Zapdos is hiding on this island." After venting his anger on the two Pokémon, Hunter X began to think again.

Hunter X took out his communicator and contacted the logistics personnel in the airship.

"Drive the airship over Yeli Island, turn on the detection equipment at full power - scan the entire island! Re-detect the position of the lightning bird!"

"Yes! Boss!"

Hunter X, who had already wasted a lot of time, no longer had the cat-and-mouse mentality he had before.

He must quickly get rid of this soul egg that likes to pluck bird feathers and recapture the Zapdos!

After giving instructions for the plan, Hunter X took back the Ivory Pig and other Pokémon and jumped back onto the back of the Three-Headed Dragon.

"Let's go back to the airship and wait for news." Knowing the cunningness of the prey, Hunter X didn't want to waste any more efforts.

"Roar--!"

The three-headed dragon carried Hunter X into the air quickly.

……

"Right here, Crab! Use Dig on the rock wall!"

Wang Yao brought the giant crab to the beach where he had special training in the morning.

Next to the coast here, there is a towering rock wall facing the sea.

The giant crab had trained its skills here before, using its crab fist to smash a semicircular pit on the rock wall. Now that Wang Yao has returned here, he plans to expand the pit and make it into a cave to hide inside.

"Gurg!"

The giant crab skillfully dug a hole in the rock wall, then waved its large claws to compact the inner wall and moved deeper little by little.

It didn't take long to dig out an underground cave that was more than ten meters deep.

After reaching the bottom of the cave, the giant crab expanded the bottom part of the cave, forming a small underground space that was two meters high and four or five meters square.

“Gurgle…”

The digging skill had been used many times before. After doing all this, even the strongest giant crab in Wang Yao's hands was inevitably a little tired.

"Thank you for your hard work, Giant Claw Crab. Come back and rest first."

Wang Yao put the Giant Claw Crab back into the Poké Ball and summoned the Scarecrow and Octopus Bucket.

"You coward! Go stand guard outside on the beach!"

"Gujijiji!"

Although the cowardly bug was a little scared, it could still muster up the courage as long as it was not forced to fight head-on.

"Octopus barrel, use rock blast to seal the hole, leaving only a small gap that allows the cowardly bugs to pass through."

Rock Blast is a skill that can be learned by the octopus barrel when its level is raised. The effect is to launch hard rocks to attack, and it can attack several times in a row.

"Ugh——!"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Several rock balls made of earth elements condensed around the octopus barrel and shot towards the cave entrance. The rock balls overlapped and sealed the cave entrance tightly. In order to leave a small passage for the timid bugs to enter and exit, the octopus barrel fired a tiny water gun compressed by its mouth, which pierced a passage in the corner.

"Good job, Octopus Bucket! Come back!"

"Okay! Now..." Wang Yao took out the Poké Ball containing the Zapdos.

"It's been so long and they haven't caught up yet. It seems that the measures I arranged before have delayed some time..." Wang Yao stared at the Poké Ball in his hand, thinking about the arrangements he had made before.

"Hiding here... there is a rock wall several dozen meters thick above for protection, and an additional hole dug more than ten meters underground! Even if we take out the Rocket Team's most high-tech detector, it is impossible to scan the position of the Zapdos." Wang Yao was confident that he would not be discovered.

"Come out! Zapdos!" Wang Yao stretched out his hand casually and pressed the button on the Poké Ball!

The level ball in his hand emitted a red light, forming a huge outline of the Zapdos in the cave.

"Hey...wait!" Wang Yao looked at the huge bird body that suddenly appeared on his head.

Bang-!

The unconscious Zapdos was suddenly released from the Poké Ball, but because the space in the dungeon was too small, Zapdos fell directly on Wang Yao!

"Wow! It's... so heavy!"

Wang Yao felt as if he was carrying a huge mountain on his back, being pressed firmly to the ground with only half of his arm exposed!

"Come out...Giant...Giant Crab!" Wang Yao groped for the Poké Ball on his belt with great effort, fumbled to press the button, and threw it out.

“Stinger…”

Because his body was still being pressed down, Wang Yao threw the wrong ball, and what came out was not a giant crab, but a poisonous jellyfish.

"Forget it, anyone is fine..."

Wang Yao couldn't care less.

"What are you still standing there for! Move it away quickly!" Wang Yao made a dull sound under the Zapdos.

“Poison… poison sting—!”

The eighty tentacles of the stinging jellyfish worked together to barely pull Wang Yao out from under the belly of the Zapdos.

"Oh... It hurts so much! I thought I was going to die!" With the help of the poisonous jellyfish, Wang Yao climbed up with great effort, gasping for breath several times.

"Hasn't woken up yet?" Wang Yao looked at the still unconscious Zapdos, feeling somewhat helpless.

"Fuwu..." At this moment, the Zapdos frowned, as if showing signs of waking up.

In fact, what Wang Yao didn’t know was that the Level Ball was a special Poké Ball for capturing weak Pokémon. In order to take care of weak Pokémon that might be injured in battle, it actually had additional healing effects when captured.

After receiving emergency treatment with advanced medicine, Zapdos recuperated in the level ball for a while. Now his injuries have actually recovered by more than half, but his exhausted physical strength has not yet fully recovered. He needs to sleep for a while to recover his physical strength.

"Zapdos!" Wang Yao saw that Zapdos' eyelids seemed to move.

"It seems to be waking up soon. After all, this is the first time we meet... I have to leave a good impression." Wang Yao fell into deep thought as he looked at the dozens of venomous jellyfish around him, which were waving their tentacles and looked unfriendly.

"Come back, stinging jellyfish."

"If we talk about Pokémon that look more friendly..." Wang Yao touched his chin and quickly identified the participants.

"It's decided to be you! Sleepy Mushroom!"

A red light flashed, and today's little hardworking mushroom appeared again.

"Gummilu..."

The Sleepy Mushroom had previously consumed too much energy in order to release the Sleeping Powder skill, which was really too much for it as it was still at a relatively low level.

After the Poké Ball was taken back, he had been sleeping. Now he was called out by Wang Yao. Because he was very sleepy, the little mushroom man was still a little dazed and couldn't open his eyes.

"Sleepy Mushroom...it's okay, just continue sleeping outside the Poké Ball." Wang Yao touched the small cap of the Sleepy Mushroom and said softly.

"Gumulu..." After hearing Wang Yao's words, the little bit of energy that the Sleepy Mushroom had just perked up disappeared again.

The Sleepy Mushroom narrowed its eyes and fell into a sound sleep again.

Afterwards, Wang Yao took out the empty bottle of medicine he had used before and threw it in a conspicuous place in the dungeon, ensuring that the Zapdos would see it as soon as it woke up.

Then, Wang Yao deliberately rolled around in the dungeon, getting his body covered with mud and dust, making it dirty. He also used sharp stones to tear his clothes, making himself look miserable!

After doing all this, Wang Yao pretended to pick up the Sleepy Mushroom, which was still cute even when it fell asleep, leaned against the body of the Zapdos, and began to pretend to sleep.

"I used Master Zhi's classic tactic of training the eagle - why can't I catch you this time?" Wang Yao was secretly proud of himself.

……

"High-energy reaction detected!"

In the airship, the member of the Hunter Organization who was responsible for operating the detection equipment suddenly brought good news!

“…It’s on the rock wall on the west coast of Yeli Island!”

Obviously... Wang Yao underestimated the speed of technological progress.

The power of science is so great!

It can even detect Pokémon energy underground through dozens of meters of rock layers!

"Ha! The game of hide-and-seek is over!" Hunter X sneered.

This time he wore a full set of high-tech armor. Through the helmet, he could communicate with the airship at any time and use the high-tech detection equipment on the airship to continuously locate the high-energy reactions emitted by the lightning bird.

"Go ahead! Three-headed dragon, find this burrow rat that can only run away!" Hunter X turned over and used the magnetic boots on his feet to firmly attach his body to the back of the three-headed dragon.

"This time! I won't let you escape!"

"Zapdos! Become my prey!"
