Chapter 33

Everywhere here was covered in forests that blocked out the sun, and waist-high grass and shrubs were everywhere.

If one were to accidentally get lost, it would truly be difficult to figure out the direction.

Moreover, there were mosquitoes and insects everywhere; fortunately, Su Yu was dressed tightly enough, otherwise, he would likely have been bitten by these insects.

After entering, Su Yu released Combusken.

"Combusken, I'll leave my protection to you from now on."

Su Yu patted Combusken's head and said.

"Chamo!" Combusken raised its arm, as if saying, "Leave it to me."

Su Yu kept moving toward his intended destination.

After walking for half an hour, Su Yu chose to find a spot nearby to rest.

Not long after sitting down, Su Yu heard a rustling sound coming from the surrounding grass.

"Combusken, get ready to guard!"

"Chamo!" Combusken also stared intently at the grass, ready to attack immediately if anything went wrong.

In an instant, a completely black dog crawled out from the grass.

There were two bone-like objects on its back, and a bone-like object on each of its ankles.

It was exactly the canine-type Pokémon, Houndour.

Seeing Combusken, Houndour's eyes also held a trace of vigilance.

Su Yu hurriedly checked Houndour's attributes.

【Name: Houndour (Fire, Dark)】

【Gender: ♂】

【Level: LV. 9 (Novice)】

【Ability: Flash Fire (When HP is low, the power of Fire-type moves increases)】

【Potential: Elite】

【Individual Values: HP (17), Attack (21), Special Attack (16), Defense (20), Special Defense (18), Speed (20)】

【Moves: Ember, Leer, Howl, Smog, Bite】

【Introduction: Skilled at cooperating with partners. If it becomes a companion, it will be very obedient to the Trainer's commands.】

It was a Houndour with very ordinary attributes and level.

Seeing that its level wasn't high, Su Yu decided to grind some experience for his other two Pokémon.

"Come out, Bagon!"

"Bagon!" After Bagon came out, it let out an imposing roar.

"Bagon, use Brick Break!"

In the wild, Su Yu wasn't planning on reasoning with Houndour.

He directly let Bagon attack first.

Bagon strode forward with its thick, powerful long legs, and white light radiated from its forelimbs.

After a few steps, Bagon arrived beside Houndour and swung its attack.

Houndour grew vigilant, sensed the danger, jumped to the side, and dodged the blow.

Subsequently, it opened its mouth wide, emitted white light, and bit toward Bagon.

It was exactly Bite!

"We'll dodge too, Bagon!"

Bagon was also agile and dodged Houndour's attack.

Then, another Brick Break landed on Houndour's body.

"Woo!"

Fighting-type moves have double the power against Dark-type Pokémon.

Houndour let out a miserable cry and collapsed to the ground.

【Bagon defeated Houndour and gained 60 experience points.】

Strictly speaking, this counted as Su Yu's first time commanding Bagon in battle.

Therefore, Bagon was very happy, and both its eyes were squinted.

"Well done, Bagon."

Su Yu hurriedly walked up to encourage it.

"Bagon." Bagon also rubbed against Su Yu's palm.

After winning, Su Yu left directly with his Pokémon.

While walking, Su Yu also started grinding experience for Bagon.

【Bagon defeated Beedrill and gained 70 experience points.】

【Bagon defeated Raticate and gained 50 experience points.】

【Bagon defeated Oddish and gained 70 experience points.】

【Bagon has sufficient experience and leveled up to Lv. 11!】

……

Su Yu wasn't in a hurry to find his treasure either.

The most important thing was to raise his Pokémon's levels.

Thus, Su Yu spent the entire morning grinding levels with Bagon.

Bagon also officially reached level 12.

I have to say, the experience acquisition skill is truly a god-tier skill.

With it, one can quickly improve a Pokémon's strength.

The improvement in one morning exceeded the training of the previous week.

Bagon also felt the growth of its strength and let out a happy cry.

040: Camping by the river, the couple Nidoran♂ and Nidoran♀!

At noon, Su Yu set up camp by a small stream to take a proper rest.

After all, if one wants to fight well, energy is indispensable.

Most importantly, Su Yu was simply too hot!

Although the windbreaker blocked mosquito bites very well.

But the fully wrapped clothing also made his back soaked with sweat.

If he didn't rest for a while, Su Yu felt he would get sick from the heat.

"Phew, truly comfortable."

Taking off his windbreaker, Su Yu let out a happy sigh.

This feeling was like someone being exposed to 40-degree heat and suddenly entering an air-conditioned room.

Su Yu took out the items he had prepared, drew some water from the stream, and put it into a portable pot to boil.

Because it was a wild stream, there was no need to worry about the water quality.

It was on a completely different level from the rivers in the city.

"Combusken, use Ember to start a fire."

In the wild, carrying a Fire-type Pokémon is simply too convenient.

Not only can it act as a bodyguard, but it can also start a fire at any time.

Subsequently, Su Yu took out the energy cubes he had prepared and called out Shinx, who had been staying in its Poké Ball.

"Shinx, you come out to eat too."

Su Yu distributed the corresponding energy cubes to the three Pokémon.

Because the direction in which he raised these Pokémon was different, the energy cubes were all specially made.

For example, Combusken's energy cubes contained some berries that could increase a Pokémon's speed.

Shinx's were for increasing Special Attack, and Bagon's were for increasing strength and Special Attack.

After eating and drinking well, Su Yu took his Pokémon to continue grinding levels again.

It can only be said that the wild is indeed a holy land for grinding levels. ===== CHAPTER 34 =====
