Pokémon: The Climb

"Sure enough, the life energy in the goblin secret realm cannot neutralize the destructive energy in these two ghost systems on its own..." Yang Yan's eyebrows became more worried.

In fact, as early as yesterday, Yang Yan noticed this situation shortly after arriving in the area occupied by the Pokémon following Xerneas.

A Pokémon eroded by destructive energy cannot automatically start the neutralization process and regain its consciousness just because it comes to the opposite side with rich life energy.

After all, if it could be so simple, why would the Pokémon on both sides have to fight desperately to start the war? Can't Gardevoir and the others wait for Xerneas to release their life energy and easily defeat most of their opponents?

At the end of the day, although Yang Yan couldn't fully understand the reason, he guessed that it might be the influence of the black lake.

If the Pokémon is eroded too deeply by the destructive energy, it may actually be able to withstand the opponent's life energy. After all, the Pokémon that had been eroded by the destructive energy that had attacked the major cities in Kalos had not regained their consciousness due to the life energy floating in the air.

He asked Badadie to hypnotize the two ghosts, and spent a lot of effort to completely heal their injuries. Then Yang Yan took out the extracted high-concentration life energy and gave it to them to drink.

"God bless, at least one will survive..."

Amidst the sounds of prayer, the two ghosts woke up at the same time, and instantly showed expressions of pain.

Neutralization begins!

Amid the screams, Yang Yan vaguely seemed to see gray and black air spreading from them. This is a situation that has never been seen before.

"Sure enough, they are much more eroded than the Pokémon I encountered before!"

Thinking of this, Yang Yan felt that their probability of survival was a little lower.

After a while, Yang Yan's face darkened, "Dead?"

The Gengar on the left let out a shrill scream and then completely stopped moving.

As for the cursed doll on the other side, I don't know if it was affected by Gengar, and its condition is getting worse and worse.

But fortunately, the biological instinct of survival made the cursed doll finally survive. Although it is now dying.

Yang Yan gestured for the Lizard King to use the grass field and asked: "Curse doll, do you still remember who I am?"

"Doll~" The cursed doll nodded weakly. Its expression is no longer as ferocious as it was just now, and is closer to the wild ghost type.

This is understandable. The cursed doll must have absorbed a lot of negative energy after being eroded by the destructive energy.

In fact, Yang Yan could ask the Crystal Lantern Fire Spirit to "purify" the two ghosts first, and then give them the life energy liquid. Maybe this way, Gengar can survive.

But Yang Yan couldn't take the initiative to contact the Crystal Lantern Fire Spirit now, and he was very worried about Gengar and the others, so he chose to take a risk.

A risk is a risk, but Yang Yan has no regrets. Even if neither of them survives in the end, Yang Yan is not really at his wits end.

At least he thought that if he went to the area where Gengar and the others were originally left and searched downwards, there would be a high probability that he would find something. It would not be impossible to find other members of the ghost army who had been eroded by destructive energy.

Fortunately, things didn't come to that.

At this time, Yang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and asked the cursed doll to tell everything that happened after they left, and the Lizard King relayed it.

In order not to miss any words of the cursed doll, Yang Yan also carried out a super evolution with the Lizard King, using the power of the Lizard King as a Pokémon to "understand" the cursed doll's words.

For a long while, Yang Yan looked at the cursed doll slowly sleeping, slowly disconnected the super evolution, and breathed a long sigh of relief, "So that's it..."

What the cursed doll said was different from Yang Yan's guess. To be precise, it is completely different!

It turns out that after Gengar and the others went mining, everything was normal at first, and they mined more and more ores.

Originally, it only needed to be dug step by step, and filling the space ring before dawn was not a problem at all.

Who would have thought that the playful Gengar, in order to dig better ore, led the ghosts all the way down, and somehow ended up digging near an underground river.

As expected, the water flow has been completely "polluted" by the destructive energy and is not drinkable.

Although none of the ghosts drank, they never thought that due to the underground river, the destructive energy far exceeding the outside world was accumulated in the small narrow space. They were both eroded unknowingly, and He took the initiative to leave the team and prepare to return to the ground.

The ghost-type mining was relatively spread out, so their active departure did not attract much attention from other Pokémon.

And they will be eroded. Yang Yan believes that their strength is at the bottom among many ghost systems.

"At first, considering that these low-level ghosts were not very powerful, we let them go mining with Gengar. I didn't expect that it would end up like this..."

With these two examples, Yang Yan believes that most of the other high-level Gengars have also been "succumbed to the trick".

"Gengar and the others haven't come back. Could it be that they are looking for these companions who left after being eroded by the destructive energy?"

"If you don't come back and let me know, you can't be worried about being scolded, right?"

With Gengar's mischievous character, it's really possible that he would do this.

Yang Yan was a little funny, but also a little lucky. Although Gengar and other important Pokémon were not eroded by the destructive energy until they left the team, and there was no guarantee that they would not be eroded later, it was enough to reassure Yang Yan.

As for how they ended up in Roy's hands, it can only be said to be a coincidence.

But Roy and some of his Pokémon were not lucky enough to regain their sanity!

While being eroded by the destructive energy, the cursed doll witnessed Roy talking to other humans!

And why Roy has so many ghosts fighting for it is because Roy has an aura that makes it fearful.

Yes, that's what the cursed doll said.

As Pokémon, Cursed Doll, and even other higher-level wild ghost-types, they would be afraid of a human's aura, so they would be subdued by it and fight for it without even needing a Poké Ball. It seemed simply ridiculous and unbelievable.

But that’s just what happened!

Yang Yan couldn't help but sigh, "There are more and more things I don't understand!"

Having received no bad news from Gengar, Yang Yan was relieved and prepared to continue searching for Roy.

In the cursed doll's memory, Roy and several other people have a fixed gathering place.

And that location is in a mountain cave connected to the underground river.

If it hadn't been such a coincidence, it and the dead Gengar next to it might not have fallen into Roy's hands.

"Go there first to find Roy. Maybe you can also find other members of the ghost army there who have been eroded by destructive energy, and then follow the underground river to find Gengar!" Yang Yan decided...
