Chapter 202 The fire burned just right
Lu An was deeply moved by Espeon's thoughtfulness and understanding.
Since it had no intention of contacting Blaine, Lu An let it stay in the Poké Ball.
He also needs to find the other four Pokémon.
Lu An had already searched the vicinity where he woke up, but he couldn't find the Swamp Monster and the others.
Could it be that they were carried down to a location even lower than Mount Shirogane by the avalanche?
With this in mind, Lu An decided to continue his journey and search towards the capital.
Just then, a dark shadow suddenly flashed past and struck Xia Bo hard.
Its speed was so fast that even Xia Bo, the former dojo master, didn't have time to react and immediately knelt on the ground, complaining bitterly.
"Hiss!"
Upon seeing this, the fiery horse was instantly engulfed in raging flames and prepared to charge off in a certain direction.
"Wait, Blazing Horse, don't make any rash moves!"
Blaine stopped the fiery horse.
However, while Xia Bo stopped the Fiery Horse, he could not command Lu An's actions.
Lu An walked slowly toward the depths of the snow-covered forest.
Seeing that he couldn't stop Lu An, Uncle Xia took the initiative to speak:
“It’s incredibly fast; it’s definitely not some weakling that’s been caught in an avalanche. Lu An, you need to be careful.”
Lu An walked into the jungle.
Suddenly, Lu An instinctively turned his head.
The large tree next to him was suddenly pierced through.
Lu An narrowed his eyes.
A rather fierce attack.
Judging from the extent of the damage to the tree trunk, it looks like it was hit by a heavy fist.
However, it was definitely not the same move that hit Blaine just now.
Otherwise, with Xia Bo's old bones, even if he was once a ruthless person who could go through fire and water, he definitely wouldn't have been able to withstand it.
What Pokémon on Mt. Silver can use powerful punches?
Just then, Lu An leaped into the air, and several more bursts of energy grazed past him, slicing into the tree trunk behind him.
"This time it's a sharp cut."
A Pokémon that knows both boxing and sharp weapons?
Are they the Scyther and Scizor, which are known for their technical prowess?
No, if it were a scyther that specializes in punches, the tree should only have a small hole, not be punched straight through.
Moreover, the sharp weapon mentioned earlier should have been removed from the body, rather than being a physical feature.
A sharp object that can be removed from the body?
"Flying Leaf Knife"?
If it was a "leaf blade," then we can deduce some of the moves used to attack Blaine.
It is very likely the Grass-type Pokémon "Vine Whip".
However, among the Pokémon that can master "Rapid Leaf," there are none that can master powerful punches.
The Blizzard King who can use a "wooden mallet"?
wrong.
Or is it the same "wooden mallet" gorilla that can smash?
Not right either.
Suddenly, Lu An had a flash of inspiration and stopped in his tracks.
Why does he insist on limiting the number of Pokémon that can launch a sneak attack to only one?
What if the sneak attack just now was a scheming collaboration between the two Pokémon?
Upon realizing this, Lu An suddenly felt a sense of vastness and openness.
"Shushuo".
"Light Cloth, 'Psychic Power'! There are two opponents!"
"Buyi!"
Espeon stepped forward and charged up a powerful attack from behind the bushes that were making the strange noise.
"Yoru!"
"Bana!"
Two Pokémon of vastly different sizes were knocked out of the bushes by Espeon.
After the two Pokémon stopped, Lu An suddenly realized what was going on.
Sure enough, it was a Venusaur and a Poliwag.
One is skilled in using "vine whips" and "flying leaf knives," while the other is skilled in using his fists.
The sneak attack just now must have been the result of their combined efforts.
They probably saw that the avalanche had stopped, so they wanted to take this opportunity to come out and forage for food.
Unexpectedly, they encountered tough opponents like Xia Bo and Lu An.
However, it's quite rare to find two Pokémon working together in a place like Mt. Silver, where many powerful Pokémon are vying for dominance.
It's important to know that, apart from specific species partners like Krookodile and Pidgeot, wild Pokémon rarely cooperate with each other.
wrong.
Lu An pondered that perhaps it was precisely because of the perilous nature of Mt. Silver that the two Pokémon were able to cooperate to survive.
Regardless of how they survive, they shouldn't target Lu An and his group.
"Lightcloth, Shadow Sphere!"
When they were ambushing from the bushes, Lu An found it a bit troublesome, but once Venusaur and the others revealed themselves, even if they joined forces, the threat was no more than that.
Sun Ibrahimovic's two consecutive Shadow Balls knocked them down.
"Buyi!"
(((?'w')?三?'w')?≡☆⌒?((x_x)
"Yoru!"
"Bana!"
(☆_@)
However, they were only trying to survive in Silver Mountain, so Lu An only knocked them down, but did not completely incapacitate them.
Otherwise, they would have fallen from predators to prey in this silver mountain.
Just as Lu An was about to leave with Espeon, a strange phenomenon caught his attention.
"Wait a minute, Hikaru."
Lu An arrived at Venusaur's side.
"Ba na..."
ヘ(><)ノ
Venusaur shrank back, trying to avoid Lu An.
Venusaur and Poliwag were originally Pokémon from the area below Mt. Silver, but after seeing the devastation caused by the avalanche, they decided to climb the mountain further.
But who would have thought that after just encountering a tough nut that could breathe fire, they would now run into an iron gate.
Venusaur: The mountain people are too scary, I want to go back down the mountain.
Lu An ignored the thoughts of Venusaur, who was powerless to resist under Espeon's mental control.
Instead, it grabbed half of its body.
The large flower that should have stood tall on its body was inexplicably half-burnt and curled up.
This is not an effect that Espeon's superpowers and "Shadow Ball" could produce.
It looks more like it was burned by a Fire-type Pokémon.
Lu An reached out and touched the mosquito coil warrior next to him.
"Yoru..."
Mosquito Coil Warrior: I'm not clean anymore...
As expected, Lu An seemed to be deep in thought.
The mosquito coil warrior, which was originally covered in sticky membranes, felt dry to the touch, as if all the moisture in its body had been burned away by a fire.
When it ambushed Lu An, it could only use its fists and did not use water-based moves. Perhaps this was partly because its identity had been evaporated?
Moreover, the fire clearly showed mercy, not only evaporating the moisture from the Poliwag Warrior just right, but also only burning the flower crown of Venusaur without causing any damage to its main body.
A Fire-type Pokémon with such a delicate mind...
Lu An's mind raced, and he looked at the Mosquito Coil Warrior:
"Mosquito coil warriors, did you just encounter a giant flying moth that breathes fire?"
"Yoru?"
He turned over, letting Lu An touch him all over, feeling unclean, and was stunned, like a mosquito coil warrior who wanted to cry but had no tears.
How did you know we just encountered a fire moth?
Seeing the stunned expressions on Mosquito Coil Warrior and Venusaur's faces, Lu An was delighted.
Just as he expected, those two had just come into contact with the Volcano Moth!
