Pokémon: Trainers Start as Bounty Hunters.

The waves kept surging.

A roaring whale king, about fifteen or sixteen meters long, appeared near the ship.

They jumped down in batches, a very familiar sequence.

"set off!"

Rongyan waved her hand, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Captain! What do we do?!"

The defense forces of Qiulu City are not fools either.

Such a commotion, especially considering it occurred at the location of the enemy's command center, naturally meant they witnessed it.

Immediately, some people showed signs of tension.

"Hold on."

"Once the other two places are resolved, they'll come to support us immediately."

Even Officer Jenny, who was in charge, didn't have a good solution.

Rush Team, Dark Team, Pokémon Kidnapping Team.

Of the three dark organizations, the Dark Team is undoubtedly the most powerful and the most difficult to deal with.

Otherwise.

The headquarters of the Ranger Alliance no longer needs to be located in the Almia region where the Dark Team operates.

Moreover.

The most difficult thing to deal with in the Dark Team is that they can control a constant stream of wild Pokémon to launch irrational attacks.

If it weren't for the presence of Officer Jenny and others, which raised the average strength of the Akihabara City side...

Even though they are both wild Pokémon, the rangers might not necessarily be able to defeat their opponents.

"Yes!"

fortunately.

The rangers have another advantage.

That is, their character is usually very excellent.

Faced with such a dangerous situation.

Even though they knew they might lose their lives, their faces were still filled with determination.

It directs the "partners" that have been communicated with by the hunting buoy.

For a time, thanks to their certain advantages in terrain, they seemed to be able to push back.

"hum"

Disdainful laughter echoed across the battlefield.

"Infernape, use Flamethrower!"

"Give me!"

Fiery red flames streaked across the sky.

The first to be hit was an unlucky flying mantis.

Faced with the sudden fire attack, the insect-type warrior silently raised his twin blades.

"just!"

Flames roared past, leaving only a black shadow struggling helplessly within them.

Not only that.

Along the way, about a dozen elves found themselves in the same predicament.

The rampaging attack only stopped when a near-Elite Four level Arcanine with the Flash Fire ability stepped forward and took the flame head-on.

"Not bad."

Rongyan stood on the back of a Pidgeot, covered her mouth and laughed, "But how many times can you take that?"

Her fingers moved continuously across the instrument.

In an instant.

The Infernape below seemed to be using Flamethrower relentlessly without any restraint, showing no sign of stopping.

A purple aura swirled around it, making it appear incredibly eerie.

"Damn it."

Miss Officer Jenny didn't look too good.

But he had no choice but to command Arcanine to go after it.

After several times.

The Growlithe's fur became increasingly shiny, and it seemed to have reached its peak condition.

"Continue."

Rongyan chuckled, completely unconcerned.

The Flashfire ability is indeed very powerful, especially when facing Fire-type Pokémon.

However, it is not invincible.

The Flicker Flame ability allows the user to absorb fire energy and strengthen themselves when attacked by fire-type moves.

Since it involves absorbing energy, there must be an upper limit.

after all.

Not all Pokémon are as bottomless as Ultra Beast Guzzlord.

This upper limit is affected by factors such as the Pokémon's level and physical attributes.

Without a doubt.

It's highly unrealistic for a near-Elite Four level Arcanine to rely on its Flash Fire ability to contend with an Elite Four level Infernape.

that's the truth.

Judging from the current situation...

If Arcanine uses Flamethrower two or three more times, it might be the first to be severely injured due to its inability to control the excessive Fire-type energy within its body.

If that really happens...

This would be a rather heavy psychological blow to it.

"Come on, let me see just how selfless Miss Officer Jenny really is."

If you don't let your Arcanine take the hit from the Flamethrower, more people will get hurt!

Rongyan revealed a sickly smile.

"Wang!"

There was absolutely no time for Officer Jenny to react.

Although Arcanine does not possess the hidden trait "Heart of Justice" for various reasons, it is inherently a Pokémon with a strong sense of justice.

It cannot simply sit idly by and do nothing.

Facing Infernape's countless Flamethrower attacks, Arcanine charged forward, its entire body engulfed in flames.

It releases and absorbs simultaneously.

This does help it last a little longer.

But it will only last a short while.

"Tsk, I'm not playing with you anymore."

Suddenly, Rongyan's expression turned cold.

The control commands on my hands changed instantly.

A dazzling white light shone from Infernape's hands.

To know.

As one of Sinnoh's three Fire-type starter Pokémon, Infernape shares the same Fire + Fighting type as Blaziken.

even.

Their fighting ability is in no way inferior to most pure Fighting-type Pokémon.

Footsteps moved.

The incredibly agile Infernape closed in on Arcanine in the blink of an eye.

"boom--"

Clench both hands into fists and then swing them out.

A dark shadow slammed into a building in the distance, kicking up clouds of dust.

"Growlithe!"

Miss Officer Jenny gritted her teeth and called out to her companions.

Rongyan curled her lip: "Heh, disgusting."

You'd better worry about yourself first.

With a wave of his hand.

Several sea sprites, who had been waiting impatiently, pounced on Officer Jenny, who was unprotected by any sprites.

She turned her head and looked around, searching for her next target.

"Indeed, it's disgusting."

A male voice rang in Rongyan's ear.

"Pidgeon, Steel Wing! Spin!"

Without a second's hesitation, the latter immediately commanded his mount to defend.

"Phidude, Steel Wing! Breakthrough!"

The commands were almost identical, but the result was a complete rout.

"Beep—"

The mournful cries of birds echoed through the sky.

A human and an elf twirled as they fell from the sky.

Infernape immediately abandoned its opponent and leaped high into the air with a single turn.

Rongyan, who had been caught, clutched her chest, her face contorted in pain: "Who is it??"

She had never heard of anyone in Autumn Dew City owning a Pidgeot that was suspected to be at the peak of the Elite Four level.

"Your ancestors."

On Pidgeon's back, Tetsuya gave it the middle finger without any hesitation.

He takes insulting people very seriously.

"Ledo"

Gallade's figure gradually appeared.

Rongyan caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of her eye.

They then discovered that Officer Jenny and Arcanine, who were almost trapped with nowhere to escape, had actually been rescued.

"Infernape, attack!"

A sinister expression, completely out of place, appeared on her beautiful face.

Without wasting any words, Rongyan launched her attack directly.
