Chapter 184: Dr. Namba!
"Dr. Jinbo." Huo La looked at the pink-brown-haired man opposite and deliberately lowered his voice.
"It's Namba! Dr. Namba!!!" The man was furious when he heard this wrong name, the veins on his forehead bulging.
Huo La shrugged indifferently—of course he knew the other party was Dr. Namba of Team Rocket, calling the wrong name was just to tease this guy.
Namba took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed his anger, and looked at the three of them gloomily: "Forget it, since you know me, save the nonsense. You three brats, who exactly are you?"
"We are just Trainers who can't stand you Team Rocket destroying the ecology and catching Pokémon!" Bilan stepped forward and responded angrily.
"Little girl, big talk comes with a price, you know." Namba glanced at her coldly, his tone carrying a threat.
As soon as the words fell, the Electabuzz beside him crackled, blue arcs flashed along its fur, and a dangerous electric current atmosphere filled the air.
"Nidoqueen!" Huo La ordered in a deep voice.
The huge Nidoqueen immediately stepped forward, its broad body steadily blocking the three of them, vigilantly staring at Electabuzz.
Namba looked at Nidoqueen's strong physique, and a hint of greed flashed in his eyes: "This Nidoqueen is cultivated quite well, if I grab it and use Team Rocket's technology to transform it, it will definitely become a top combat power."
"Nido—!" The coveted Nidoqueen roared angrily, its four limbs stomping hard on the ground, and the mud of the wetland was stepped into shallow depressions, full of hostility.
"We have already called the police, Officer Jenny will arrive here soon!" Brock said appropriately, trying to use the police to exert pressure.
"Oh? Called the police?" Namba sneered, his tone full of disdain. "That's just right, before the police arrive, solve you stumbling blocks first!"
"All of you, go!" Namba waved his hand, and Team Rocket's grunts and a group of Pokémon were released one after another, surrounding the three of them.
"Electabuzz, use Thunder Punch!" Namba locked the target on Nidoqueen and ordered sternly.
Electabuzz roared, its right fist condensed with dazzling electric light, the air around the fist slightly distorted by the ionization, and it rushed toward Nidoqueen.
"Brock, Bilan, leave these grunts to you!" Huo La made a quick decision, his eyes sharp as a blade. "I'll deal with Electabuzz and Namba! Nidoqueen, use Iron Tail to meet it!"
Nidoqueen received the order, its thick tail instantly hardened, shining with metallic luster, and swung fiercely at Electabuzz's Thunder Punch—two powerful attacks collided in the center of the wetland!
Mystery of Transformation: Enhanced Electabuzz and Huo La's Response
"Bang—!"
The moment the two attacks collided, Electabuzz stood steadily on the spot, the electric arcs all over its body even more intense; while Nidoqueen groaned, its huge body uncontrollably retreated three steps, its thick limbs plowing three shallow ditches in the wetland—clearly, it suffered no small loss in this head-on confrontation.
A hint of surprise flashed in Huo La's eyes.
Although the system bound to him could not be used, judging from his Trainer experience, the level of Electabuzz was not much different from Nidoqueen, and it was impossible to suppress the sturdy Nidoqueen under normal circumstances.
Huo La's heart moved, and he immediately took out the Rotom Phone from his pocket: "Rotom, check the detailed information of this Electabuzz!"
The phone screen lit up, and a complete data panel instantly popped up:

Huo La stared at "Stimulated Enhancement" and "A (S)" aptitude on the panel, not too surprised.
After all, his Muk was the work of this Dr. Namba in front of him, and Huo La had long been prepared for him to do something to his main Pokémon.
"Is it the effect of that thing on its head?" Huo La put away the phone, his eyes becoming solemn. "No wonder it can withstand Nidoqueen's Iron Tail."
"Nidoqueen, don't fight hard!" He immediately adjusted his tactics. "Use Toxic Spikes to limit its movement, and then find an opportunity to attack."
The purple Toxic Spikes instantly scattered, pulling a thorny barrier between Electabuzz and Nidoqueen.
Namba looked at this seemingly tricky Toxic Spikes belt, and the mockery in his eyes became even stronger: "Small tricks! Electabuzz, rush over, use Giga Impact!"
The transformed Electabuzz seemed to have no pain, its expression was calm, and it directly crushed over the Toxic Spikes belt—the sharp Toxic Spikes cut its skin, and the purple poison spread rapidly, but it didn't stop at all, and the Giga Impact condensing terrifying power still slammed toward Nidoqueen!
"Not good, Nidoqueen!" Huo La exclaimed, but it was too late to stop it.
"Boom—!"
Giga Impact slammed solidly into Nidoqueen's broad chest, the huge impact force made Nidoqueen groan, and its huge body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, slamming heavily into the mud of the wetland, splashing a piece of muddy water.
Fortunately, Huo La had predicted it early, and didn't stand behind Nidoqueen, so he barely escaped the aftermath.
"Huo La, are you okay!" Brock's voice came from far away in the melee.
He and Bilan cooperated tacitly, one commanding Pokémon to restrain from the front, one wandering to sneak attack, dealing with Team Rocket grunts was not a problem, but they couldn't stand the other side having many people, and they couldn't get away for a while.
Huo La quickly retrieved the injured Nidoqueen, his gaze falling on the Electabuzz that was still standing, and a hint of solemnity added to his eyes. The resilience and attack power of this transformed Pokémon far exceeded his expectations.
"Brat, this Electabuzz is not simple." Gengar's voice sounded in his heart.
"I see it." Huo La took a deep breath, the corners of his mouth curling into a self-deprecating smile. "Used to gym regular matches, I forgot this is not a fair one-on-one battle—to deal with Team Rocket, you should use Team Rocket's way!"
"Venusaur, Scyther, Beedrill, Zubat, Muk, all out! Gang up on it!"
As the words fell, Huo La's five Pokémon formed a surrounding momentum, rushing toward Electabuzz together!
"Damn! This brat actually plays gang-up!" Namba's expression changed drastically, and he ordered sternly, "Electabuzz, use Thunderbolt all-coverage!"
Electabuzz roared to the sky, and violent electric currents erupted all over its body, forming an electric net that spread toward the surroundings.
Namba's gaze suddenly locked on that Muk in the melee, his brows slightly wrinkled, lost in thought—why is the form and energy fluctuation of this Muk so familiar? It seems extremely similar to a batch of experimental subjects he had transformed.
Just in the moment he was stunned, the battle situation had already reversed.
His Electabuzz, under the repeated siege of five Pokémon, gradually ran out of physical strength, the poison on its body began to take effect, and its movements became more and more sluggish.
Finally, under the joint attack of Beedrill and Scyther, Electabuzz groaned and fell heavily to the ground, losing its combat ability.
Solving Electabuzz, Huo La's five Pokémon immediately turned their direction and forced toward Dr. Namba, full of momentum.
Dr. Namba's expression finally changed, and he suddenly shouted: "Yamato, Kosaburo, where the hell are you two hiding!" ===== CHAPTER 185 =====
