Chapter 807: Totem Madwoman

"Heh..."

All Baimu twitched the corner of his mouth, watching the group of Salandit surrounding them.

Normally, fighting a Totem Pokémon would involve at most one big and one small; where would they be like this, blocking the challenger's retreat, clearly intending to keep them here.

The reason?

The reason was very simple——

The nutritional egg in Blissey's pouch.

The Totem Salazzle's eyes on the stone platform were almost as bright as searchlights, staring fixedly at Blissey, more like a Pokémon with the 【Gluttony】 ability than the Totem Raticate.

He shouted through the gas mask: "I am an Island Challenge challenger! Here specifically to complete the trial set by the Island Queen!"

The Totem Salazzle remained unmoved, its tail flicking.

The Salandit moved a step closer in silence, their cunning and fierce gazes and tiger-watching appearance would inevitably make anyone else's scalp tingle if they saw it.

Sure enough, this guy was also a "mad" one.

All Baimu smiled.

Since you don't follow the rules, don't blame me for not following the rules either.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a few round balls.

The Totem Salazzle seemed to sense something, but the environment in the cave was too dim, with only the firelight at the edges shining slightly, causing it to fail to see what the things were.

Poké Balls?

No matter what they were, it was time to act!

"Un-nao!"

It ordered in a sharp voice!

In an instant.

Many Salandit guided by hormones jumped or lunged, like a pack of hunting wolves rushing toward All Baimu, Blissey, and Gengar!

But only then did the shouting suddenly ring out.

"Fire in the hole!!"

Bang bang bang!

Explosive thick smoke mixed with countless golden particles surged up, and amidst the sharp hissing of a group of Salandit and the Totem Salazzle's subconscious action of protecting the egg, it instantly permeated every corner of the cave.

The key was those few Salandit rushing at the very front.

They were surprised to find that the target had disappeared!

"Ya-da?"

"Ya-da!"

The Salandit communicated in the golden smoke, and before they could continue to do anything, the 【Paralysis】 status had already been triggered; the fine electricity crackling on their bodies made them stiff all over, unable to do anything.

The Totem Salazzle on the stone platform was stupid.

This scene was so familiar...

A figure that looked somewhat familiar suddenly flashed in its mind, and it hurriedly stood up.

"Un-nao!"

Boom!

Totem aura activated!

The golden-red light flames stirred up an invisible air wave, blowing away the large area of golden mist around the stone platform, successfully preserving itself, but its little brothers were very unfortunate.

The Salandit that had luckily escaped a disaster were hit on the spot, their bodies covered in electricity, twitching and falling to the ground.

At the same moment.

A blurry voice came from above.

"Still fish that slipped through the net? Eat another one of my Hypnosis bombs!"

Bang bang bang!

Another purple thick mist rose, tossing and turning in the cave together with the golden thick mist.

The Totem Salazzle looking up had to use its Totem aura to clear the smoke again, but it also caused the few remaining subordinates to suffer.

What was even more awkward was that it still hadn't found where All Baimu was.

The Totem Salazzle was furious, but it still had to protect the Pokémon egg and didn't dare to walk down the stone platform holding the egg at will.

For a time.

It felt as if it had returned to several years ago, that afternoon of being bombarded.

How similar it was to the present!

Even though it had moved from Melemele Island to Akala Island, how could it still encounter this kind of thing!

"Un-nao!"

The Totem Salazzle was going crazy.

In the dark.

Beep!

All Baimu put on the infrared tactical goggles he had bought before, leaned against the top of the cave to look down, and lay on Blissey and Gengar, who were emitting blue light.

These two Pokémon raised their double claws high, one supporting the trainer's chest, and the other supporting the trainer's legs.

The appearance was exceptionally funny.

Fortunately, there was no one watching, so there was no need to worry about losing face.

He looked around the situation in the cave, confirmed that there were generally no fish that slipped through the net, nodded with peace of mind, and said, "Descend."

The two Pokémon descended slowly.

Because Blissey had used 【Safeguard】 in advance, and the effect of this move could cover Pokémon it considered teammates, there was no need to worry about the powder in the air affecting them.

The Salandit lying on the ground kept crying out.

Pokémon are both fragile and tough; don't look at them now lying on the ground unable to crawl up, once the abnormal status is lifted, they can immediately jump up and continue to rush toward him.

Of course.

It was also possible that they would run outside.

The cave was airtight, the paralysis powder and sleep powder wouldn't disperse for a while, and it didn't know how long it would take for them to settle down.

All Baimu turned his head to look at the Totem Salazzle on the stone platform.

The other party seemed to have discovered him too, looking over here with an incomparably resentful gaze.

It was just a pity.

The beating it deserved wouldn't be any less.

"Gengar! Go!"

"Gen~gar!"

Gengar flew forward with a strange laugh, but the moment the Totem Salazzle protected the Pokémon egg behind it and prepared to fight, it suddenly sank into the shadow on the ground.

"Un-nao?"

The Totem Salazzle was slightly stunned, its gaze hurriedly swept back and forth around, but it never found where Gengar was.

Suddenly.

It felt something strange about the tail wrapped around the Pokémon egg, and when it turned its head to look, it was indeed Gengar!

"Mao Jie-hee-hee-hee——"

Gengar gave a wicked laugh at the Totem Salazzle, suddenly stuffed the Pokémon egg into its stomach, and sank into the ground again and disappeared.

Child!

My child!

"Un-nao!!"

The Totem Salazzle instantly lost its mind, its tail ignited with a "whoosh" to form a long, thin fire whip, and it swept over like a long snake spitting out its tongue with a hiss!

Whoosh!

The wind whistled!

All Baimu and Blissey fell to the side left and right without thinking, the fire whip suddenly swept past between the two, and smashed into the wall with a bang!

Fire splashed, and broken stones flew!

When a Totem Pokémon goes crazy, the power of its moves is still quite something to see.

The two stood up and looked at each other, decisively fleeing backward, completely without the idea of going head-to-head with the Totem Salazzle at this moment.

Although fighting hard would definitely win in the end, there was really no need.

Isn't it painful to be burned by fire and sprayed by poison?

Wild battles don't have as many rules as orthodox battles; avoiding direct conflict is better than avoiding it; being beaten is never something worth being happy about.

Furthermore.

Anger emphasizes one go, then decline, then exhaust.

How long can the Totem Salazzle's crazy attack be maintained? There are paralysis powder and sleep powder everywhere in the cave; just inhaling a little bit is enough for it!

As for stealing the egg, on one hand, it was because he didn't want the battle to affect the Pokémon egg, and on the other hand, it was also aimed at deliberately provoking the Totem Salazzle, giving this guy who didn't follow the rules a lesson.

Gengar chuckled in the shadow.

This is already anxious?

Don't be anxious!

There are plenty of times for you to be anxious!

And the Totem Salazzle saw that one move missed, and Gengar was nowhere to be seen, becoming even more crazy.

"Un-nao!!"

The scorching fire whip swung like a rainstorm, forming a scorching flame flow that made a dull whistle, ravaging the stone platform and even every part of the cave with the posture of wanting to destroy the world!

Bang bang bang!

Broken stones splashed, the gold and purple powders floating in the air were partially dispersed, but many were also burned to ashes and drifted to the ground.

However, this wasn't the Totem Salazzle's original intention; the Salandit lying on the ground, unable to escape due to the two abnormal statuses of paralysis and sleep, were also hit and flew up, crying out in pain.

Many Salandit ignored the sour pain of paralysis all over their bodies and climbed toward the cave entrance as if they were stressed, clearly not wanting to be the pond fish that suffered anymore.

All Baimu took out several bombs to replenish the powder and cursed "really crazy."

It's hard to imagine whether the Totem Salazzle's act of hitting wildly cared about the egg or didn't care about the egg; if it didn't hold back when moving, what if it broke it itself?

A guy who creates evil!

"Un-nao!"

The Totem Salazzle roared constantly, the fire on its tail finished whipping, and it immediately opened the Flamethrower sweeping mode.

Whoosh——

Black smoke and firelight blended, and the entire cave was illuminated by the tossing flames; All Baimu and Blissey hiding in the corner didn't escape either.

Fortunately, the big egg reacted extremely quickly, propping up a spherical light shield to firmly block the flames outside.

"Happy!"

"Ready to prepare."

All Baimu looked at the Totem Salazzle's reddened vertical pupils and trembling body, knowing that this guy's chain attacks were about to pause briefly.

Totem aura wouldn't bring a perpetual motion machine effect to Totem Pokémon.

If it should be tired, it's tired.

After the words fell.

The flame spitting from the Totem Salazzle's mouth reached its limit, two long-range attacks failed, making it choose to pounce directly at All Baimu——

"Psychic!"

A blue light suddenly lit up.

The Totem Salazzle's whole body stalled in mid-air, as if time had stopped.

"Un-nao!!"

"Stop shouting, you can't move." All Baimu raised his right hand, and the Totem Salazzle was immediately smashed hard against the top of the cave!

Thud!

A dull sound.

The Totem Salazzle showed pain, its long, thin body falling freely with inertia.

All Baimu said again: "Seismic Toss."

Blissey seized the opportunity to grab the falling Totem Salazzle, spinning three and a half times like a big spinning top, and threw it toward the top of the cave again!

Thud!

Another dull sound.

But perhaps it was the effect brought by the Totem aura, the Totem Salazzle still didn't lose its ability to battle after eating two of Blissey's moves, and after falling to the ground, it stood up tremblingly.

"Un... nao!"

It looked directly at All Baimu, trying to get its child back.

It seemed to have gained courage from the resilient queen, or it was manipulated by hormones; the Salandit lying on the ground also followed and wanted to crawl up.

All Baimu sighed: "It makes me look like the bad guy; just lie down honestly for me! Sing!"

"Happy~"

Blissey cleared its throat and sang a long-lost lullaby.

The Totem Salazzle's expression was exceptionally ferocious, clearly not wanting to let the singing take effect, but it couldn't even block its ears properly, and after a few seconds, it was hit with an unwilling expression.

And those Salandit that had been put to sleep by the sleep powder before and then woken up by the Totem Salazzle's fire whip also followed and lay back down.

The cave suddenly became much cleaner.

Gengar popped its head out of the shadow and laughed wickedly: "Mao Jie-hee-hee-hee!"

The egg-stealing tactic was a great success!

All Baimu touched its head: "Hope I only have to fight once."

——

"Un-nao!"

The Totem Salazzle woke up from its dream.

It paid attention to its arms for the first time, and after finding that the Pokémon egg was still there and was indeed its own, the whole lizard relaxed.

Thank goodness...

That guy just now was just a dream.

That's right, how many years ago was it that it met that human girl.

How could someone suddenly pop out, holding something similar and bombarding it and its harem?

Haha.

Impossible.

The Totem Salazzle closed its eyes, trying hard to convince itself.

"Awake? Can you communicate normally now?"

The voice that suddenly rang out from behind made it tremble all over.

The Totem Salazzle turned its head with a stiff expression, and was shocked to see that on the stone platform it used as a throne, besides it, there was a strange human and two Pokémon.

They were placing something on the ground, looking like some plants.

"Un-nao!"

The Totem Salazzle retreated with the Pokémon egg like lightning, retreating five or six meters in a row, its tail flicking to summon its harem army.

It was just that the invincible move failed today.

All Baimu clapped his hands and said: "I drove all your little brothers out, not one left, so you should save your energy."

To avoid those guys coming back, he specifically called Aggron out to watch the field.

The Totem Salazzle saw that its summoning spell failed, and cold sweat gradually flowed down from its temples.

"Don't tell me you can't afford to lose; the battle just now wasn't according to the rules, and furthermore, I took your Pokémon egg away first so as not to affect it, and then let Blissey defeat you; in terms of emotion and reason, I've passed the trial here."

All Baimu chattered while processing the ingredients, and continued: "By the way, the trial given to me by Island Queen Olivia is to make a dish that satisfies you, so as long as you cooperate honestly, I'll leave when the trial is over. We can pretend we never knew each other."

The words were quite plain.

The intelligence of Totem Pokémon is equivalent to that of ordinary humans, so naturally, there was no reason it wouldn't understand.

It held the Pokémon egg and slowly stood up straight.

Trial?

Make a dish that satisfies it?

The Totem Salazzle had moved to Akala Island for so many years, and it was the first time it had heard of such a trial, but it was much better than the experience of being forced to destroy a flower field under the mandatory instruction of Tapu Koko in the past.

It subconsciously wanted to make things difficult for All Baimu, but after thinking about it, wouldn't it be better to recognize it early and drive him away?

After all, Blissey's nutritional egg was gone.

"Un-nao..."

The Totem Salazzle secretly convinced itself that no matter what it ate in a while, it would think it was particularly delicious, and send away this plague god who reminded it of sad things.

However.

Following All Baimu and Blissey's actions, a nose-tickling fragrance that made the Totem Salazzle salivate began to permeate the cave.

It was its favorite taste!

The Totem Salazzle couldn't help but approach, and saw in the pot in front of All Baimu, it was boiling red soup, vegetables, chili, and mushrooms.

"Gurgle~"

It swallowed saliva ungraciously, and then found that there were two sounds—

The other one came from that egg-stealing thief!

The Totem Salazzle glared fiercely at Gengar, whose saliva was about to flow to the ground; it hadn't forgotten that it was this guy who snatched the Pokémon egg just now, causing it to lose its mind and fail to fight properly!

However...

How could it be so fragrant!

The Totem Salazzle, who was exhausted after fighting, was so hungry that its eyes were seeing stars, wishing it could rush over and gulp it down.

The other party didn't give it this opportunity, silently covered it with a lid, and then looked at it with an interested expression, opening its mouth and saying: "Did you forget something? For example, the reward for defeating you?"

Reward?

The Totem Salazzle widened its eyes; it was beaten and still had to give others a reward?

Alright.

Totem Pokémon are indeed like this.

It resentfully came to the edge of the cave, dug out a fiery red diamond-shaped crystal from under the glowing ground, and the fire inside was exceptionally eye-catching. ===== CHAPTER 808 =====
