Chapter 189: As expected
The second to go on stage was Brock.
Brock didn't take out all his Pokémon right away this time. He first took one to test the opponent's strength and found that this guy was indeed evenly matched with him.
He took out his signature Pokémon. As soon as this Pokémon went out, it dealt a fatal blow to the opponent.
"I thought, what's wrong with you?"
"After such a long time, it turns out you made this preparation. Actually, you're not bad like this. After all, others might not necessarily have your strength."
The Masked Marauder on the side couldn't help but praise after seeing Brock's ability.
"Why don't you tell me the location of Celebi and come follow me? I'll take you to eat good food and drink good drinks. Whatever attribute Pokémon you want, I have them here, as long as they are adjusted according to your body."
If an ordinary person heard this temptation, they would definitely agree.
But who is Brock? He has been hanging out with Ash for so long and has traveled to so many cities.
It is impossible for him to be easily tempted, and hearing these things, he just felt like laughing.
"Don't you think what you're saying is very strange? You are a bad guy, and you want to come and rob my things."
"Why should I agree to your proposal? Do you think what you're saying is very tempting? But I'm sorry, I'm not interested."
After Brock finished speaking, he pointed out his second Pokémon again, and his Pokémon, after experiencing these three waves of battles...
Finally relaxed.
"Give it the final blow quickly, don't be polite. After defeating it, I'll give you a delicious reward."
Brock didn't forget to arrange his Pokémon, and just at the moment he spoke.
His Pokémon was almost killed by the opponent, but fortunately, his reaction speed was fast.
He recalled the Pokémon into the Poké Ball, thus avoiding this injury.
"How can you be so ruthless? No matter what, you can't kill it. Besides, they are all of the same kind. Why do you cultivate these Pokémon like animals without a normal mental state?"
Hearing Brock say this, the Masked Marauder smiled indifferently.
"They are just tools for my battle. Having such strength is already a great honor for them."
"What are you saying here? Do you think you're proud of doing this?"
"Or do you think that in the eyes of others, these things don't matter? But it's a pity, everyone pursues different things."
"If everything is the same as what you said, then wouldn't the following have to be arranged according to people's requirements?"
He said while arranging the Pokémon.
That Pokémon clearly had a serious leg injury.
Now it was actually still standing there expressionlessly.
Misty and the others covered their mouths here.
"This is too cruel, how can this guy be like this?"
Samuel Oak trembled a bit upon seeing this.
If Celebi really fell into his hands, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Just like that, Brock also lost to that Pokémon.
Mainly because it had already entered a state of life-and-death struggle; ordinary Pokémon simply couldn't beat it.
"What should we do? According to the current situation, is there no way to resolve it?" May and the others were very anxious, looking at Ash.
"It's not that there's no way to resolve it. I'm looking for loopholes, but according to this situation, we don't have enough people."
Ash said worriedly.
"Then how about this, we set a trap, pretend to tell him Celebi is over there, and trap him there for a period of time."
"But during this period, we must figure out what attributes his Pokémon have and how many Pokémon there are."
"Only then can we proceed with the next operations. Otherwise, all of this will be in vain."
The method Misty thought of was indeed feasible; Ash had also thought of it just now.
But because of the lack of detailed understanding of the details, he really didn't know how to proceed now.
"Then leave it to me." Samuel Oak stood up.
He was different from May and Brock; his mission was to protect this Pokémon well.
After all, it was it that brought him here. If he really let it get hurt here, the consequences would be unimaginable. He didn't want this situation to become complicated.
"Although I can roughly understand, I think this situation is a bit complicated."
The Masked Marauder was very disappointed to see the battle of this Pokémon.
"What is wrong with you? I gave you so much care, gave you so much hope, and this is the result you return to me? Or can you only do this?"
If it were like this, he would have to give up on the guy in front of him.
And the Pokémon was still looking at the Masked Marauder with longing.
It seemed to be saying that it had already tried its best, and the people next to it couldn't help but reveal sad expressions.
"This guy is truly too hateful."
"If I knew what he was trying to do, I definitely wouldn't let him go."
"That's right, this guy doesn't take the lives of Pokémon seriously at all. If it were like this before, it wouldn't matter, but he is too self-righteous."
While they were thinking about the trap, they were also reprimanding the Masked Marauder.
On the other side, the two people and one cat from Team Rocket had walked halfway.
Suddenly they got lost, mainly because the traces of fighting were everywhere, and the forest was all green.
They couldn't see a single Pokémon, which made Jessie feel a bit lonely.
"If it really doesn't work, let's just catch any Pokémon and go back to report to the boss."
"Anyway, the effect is the same, and there's no need to push ourselves too hard. If this continues, we won't get anything in the end."
She was a bit unwilling, but thinking about it later, if they didn't do this, things would only be more troublesome later.
"If I catch one and the boss isn't satisfied, I'd rather be scolded. So let's look for it properly."
Jessie didn't agree with James's approach.
"It seems to be just ahead. I heard the aura of battle."
As soon as they approached, they saw a few people digging a trap.
"Are you trying to frame us?"
Hearing this, the few turned their heads and saw that it was two idiots.
"We have no interest in you two."
"By the way, do you want to cooperate?" Ash deliberately put forward a request: "If you can cooperate with us, we can take you to find a powerful Pikachu."
Pikachu on the side looked at Ash immediately upon hearing this, as if to say, are you going to sell me out for the plan?
Jessie and James's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
"Are you telling the truth? What if you lie to us? And if we cooperate with you, won't we be in trouble if the boss finds out?"
Although he said this with his mouth, he had already started planning the feasibility of this cooperation in his heart.
Chapter 197: Falling into the trap
"Whether to cooperate or not depends on you."
"Besides, haven't you always wanted a powerful Pikachu? I saw one in a place, and that Pikachu's ability is much stronger than mine."
"And it is also very obedient. My Pikachu is very rebellious and doesn't even want to go into the Poké Ball."
"Do you think such a Pikachu would be useful after you get it? You can't tame it every day, and it will make a mess of your place."
Hearing Ash's complaints, the two were indeed a bit troubled.
"But what if you lie to us?"
Ash finally said, believe it and it exists, don't believe it and it doesn't. And they were also very repulsed by that guy.
"You are all from Team Rocket, but he is high and mighty, self-righteous, thinks he is the highest member, and even makes moves against you."
"This is such an exaggerated thing. If I were your boss, I would probably be speechless to death."
"But your boss appreciates capable employees. You have worked hard for so long, but in the end, you haven't achieved your goal."
"So the boss is disappointed in you and has started cultivating new people."
Ash didn't care about that much and started a round of brainwashing.
The two started to think seriously, especially Jessie on the side.
She felt that what Ash said was right; the boss had indeed been ignoring them during this period.
For requests made by others, he basically answered as soon as he was asked, without any rebuttal, and even appeared particularly happy.
"So it depends on you. If you are willing, you go and lure him over, just say you saw Celebi."
"After he enters the trap, we throw out his sanctions. And this Celebi, although its ability is strong..."
"But it's a one-time thing. You think, if it's really like this, what if you regret it after going to other places?"
Ash was just bullying these two, and because he didn't know much about these attributes, he started bluffing.
