Pokémon: Start with an Admiral Crab!

At 12:30 noon, Wang Yao showed up at the restaurant on time.

"You thought of using the friction with the branches to release the giant crab in the Poké Ball at your waist to save me... I'm so smart!"

Wang Yao put a big spoonful of curry chicken rice into his mouth and began to gobble it up madly.

"If this is considered smart... I suggest some people think about why they are stuck in the tree first."

Miss Joy, who was clearing the plates, "accidentally" passed by Wang Yao's table and spoke in a lukewarm tone.

"Ugh—cough cough!" Wang Yao, who was inhaling violently, almost choked.

I quickly drank some tree juice to moisten my throat.

"Hu——!" Wang Yao patted his chest and let out a long breath.

"Ms. Shizuka, I don't know what you're talking about... Professor Oak, the famous Pokémon scholar, once said that tree climbing is a good sport for both body and mind!"

Wang Yao said nonsense with a serious expression.

"…I'm just exercising according to what Professor Oak recommended!"

"Dr. Oak never said such a thing!!" Joey was a little helpless about Wang Yao's shamelessness.

"Lucky!" A round Jigglypuff egg squeezed in between the two of them and took away the drink cup that Wang Yao had just finished drinking.

"Hmph... You'd better not get caught by me again..." Joey said this harshly and then pushed the food tray recycling cart away.

"Lucky~" Wang Yao imitated Jigglypuff's tone and secretly made a "yeah" gesture behind Joey!

……

After lunch break, Wang Yao came to a clearing in the forest outside of Kuye City.

The invitation ticket was good for a full three days of stay. Wang Yao certainly wouldn't waste three days at the Pokémon Center, which was a free place with great food, lodging, and treatment facilities.

Because they will not officially set off for the Gopher Forest until tomorrow, Wang Yao will lead the team in special training today! And the intensity will be super doubled... to completely drain the giant crabs!

Anyway, I have Miss Joy and Jigglypuff's recovery treatment to back me up. After a night's rest, I'll be in full shape again tomorrow!

So Wang Yao plans to start actual combat training this time! Let his Pokémon fight against wild Pokémon one-on-one!

Yes! You heard it right! This time Wang Yao will not engage in a righteous beating!

It's a one-on-one match! A real manly match!

Under high-altitude detection by large-billed gulls.

Wang Yao found a small forest where many wild Pokémon gathered, and released all the Pokémon except Zapdos at once!

"The first battle of the day! Let the giant crab set an example for everyone!" Wang Yao stood behind the giant crab with his hands on his hips, looking towards the direction of the woods with high spirits.

First of all! He needs to find a strong opponent!

At this moment, a ferocious figure entered Wang Yao's sight!

This monster is brutally destroying large tracts of green vegetation in the forest!

The monster's head had a blood-red forked horn! Its green back was covered with evil circular markings! Its yellow ventral legs looked ferocious!

Through the cover of the woods, one could vaguely see the other person's pair of huge, dark and deep pupils, which revealed a frightening and murderous aura!

“That’s it—!”

"...Giant Crab! Go and knock down that Caterpillar!" Wang Yao commanded the brave and upright Giant Crab to try to challenge the evil and powerful forest overlord Caterpillar!

"Guji!" As a veteran righteous fighter among trainers, the Crawler will never ask why when Wang Yao asks it to do something!

He stepped forward, raised his giant pincers high, and aimed at a green caterpillar that was facing away from him and was happily chewing leaves! He suddenly punched it!

Bang!

After a muffled sound!

The green caterpillar lay peacefully in the deep pit that was smashed into the ground. A big bump appeared on the unconscious green caterpillar's head, and mosquito coil patterns appeared in its eye sockets!

Even against such a powerful opponent, Admiral Crab was still able to win the game perfectly!

"Well done! Giant Crab!" Wang Yao was very satisfied with the performance of the Giant Crab.

"Guji!" Admiral Giant Crab returned to the team, full of glory of victory.

"Okay! Next it's the turn of..." Wang Yao's eyes wandered over all the Pokémon.

"Go - coward! Go and kill that Metapod!" Finally, Wang Yao's eyes fell on the coward with a promising future.

"Guji!?" The cowardly bug shuddered, looked at Wang Yao in shock and confusion, and then looked at the Metapod not far away.

"Guji..." The cowardly bug seemed to have something to say.

"What are you afraid of? We have so many of you backing you up! Now is the time for you to show your prowess!" Wang Yao encouraged.

"Guji." The cowardly bug looked weak, pitiful and helpless. He hid behind the giant crab, half of his body exposed, and looked at Wang Yao eagerly.

"You better show some self-esteem!" Wang Yao shouted at the coward.

"Look, the opponent doesn't even have any hands or feet! It's just a big sandbag used for leveling! Go quickly - beat it up for me!" Wang Yao pointed out the enemy's weaknesses and let the cowardly bug play freely.

"Guji?" The cowardly bug looked at the metapod carefully.

It seemed as if it really had no hands or feet, its entire body was covered with a green shell, and it stood there like a wooden stake.

"Guji!" The cowardly bug seemed to feel that he was okay again!

"That's it - use your strongest trick! Give it a few slaps in the face!" Wang Yao's tone was like Li Yunlong whose warehouse was robbed.

"Guji!" The cowardly bug plucked up his courage and took a few steps forward.

Just like when fighting the wooden stake on Nori Island, the cowardly bug circled around the Metapod twice out of habit.

Metapod was still sleeping with its eyes closed, unaware of the danger.

The life of a caterpillar is very short. The period of being a pupa is only about half a month. During this period, it needs to consume the energy accumulated during the caterpillar period and get enough sleep to break through the shackles of evolution! Break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly!

Therefore, the Metapod only relies on the protection of the pupa shell to improve its defense, and its other senses are not sharp.

"Guji!" The cowardly bug already knew the enemy's combat strength.

It's full of flaws! It's vulnerable! We must win this battle! I'm invincible!

"Good! Very impressive!" Wang Yao saw that the coward was ready to attack!

"Take advantage of now! Use the metal claws first!" Wang Yao asked the coward to take the initiative.

Now that he had the Pokedex, he had already scanned the lists of skills that several of his Pokémon had.

At this moment, A Yao is no longer the illiterate trainer who couldn't even name the skills!

The level of the cowardly bug is not high, and it currently has only five skills, namely [Metal Claws], [Screeching Sound], [Becoming Round], [Sand Shifting], and [Insect Resistance].

Except for the metal claws which should be inherited from his father, all other skills are acquired naturally by Coward in the wild.

"Guji!" The cowardly bug quickly jumped in front of the Metapod, and the sharp claws under its back shell flashed with a metallic luster!

"Swish!" The sharp metal claws instantly caused a tiny damage to the shell of the Metapod!

Metapod's body shook, but it didn't wake up yet.

"Keep going! Use the metal claws continuously!" Wang Yao commanded the cowardly bug to start a quick attack!

Swish! Swish!

The cowardly bugs circled around the Metapod, and the attacking light of the metal claws came from all directions! Covering the entire body of the Metapod!

"Pupa..." The Metapod, awakened from its deep sleep, opened its eyes with some confusion.

It felt a little itchy just now.

"The other side is defenseless! Go ahead! Use the sand-moving technique!" Wang Yao used tactics wisely and never just attacked with force!

"Guji!" The cowardly bug followed Wang Yao's instructions and decided to pursue the victory.

As it turned around, several small insect legs swept the ground quickly, raising a cloud of dust in the direction of the Metapod!

"It's now!"

Wang Yao waved his hand and ordered, "Charge forward and use the metal claws!"

"Pupa?" The Metapod was wondering where the sand and dust came from.

But he saw a small insect he had never seen before running towards him.

The timid bug showed its claws, and with the help of the metal claw skill, the claw tips looked particularly sharp!

Another series of quick attacks of "Swish! Swish! Swish!"!

"Gujiji!" The cowardly bug became more and more confident as he fought.

The cowardly bug started to attack the Metapod crazily!

"Pupa?!" The Metapod was confused for two seconds before it realized that the guy in front of it was attacking it!

"Pupa!!" Metapod was a little annoyed. He was sleeping soundly in the forest, but a bug actually came to bully him!

It's fine that Bobo and Spearow bullied me! But a short, stunted bug from another place actually dared to stroke my beard!

How could this be tolerated! The Metapod leaped with all its might, spitting out a thin thread that hung on the treetop!

Following the force of the jump, the Metapod quickly swings its body in the air!

The wooden stake suddenly moved, scaring the cowardly bug, but after realizing that the other party just wanted to escape, the cowardly bug became confident again!

Chasing the direction in which the Metapod was swaying along the silk thread, the cowardly bug made a "Gujiji!" sound that represented victory!

"Go on! Jump up and use the metal claws!" Wang Yao also felt that victory was in sight.

The cowardly bug leaped into the air, like a giant Guangdong cockroach, and pounced directly at the Metapod!

Metapod first habitually used hardening to strengthen its defense in the air!

Then - the Metapod took the initiative to bite off the silk thread in mid-air, and using the inertia, it lowered its head! It instantly accelerated and crashed into the cowardly bug!

The cowardly bug was caught off guard and was hit directly!

"Gu--!" The coward flew back and rolled several times on the ground!

"Are you okay? You coward!" Wang Yao had not expected that a mere wild Metapod would not eat tree leaves but would read the Art of War!

"Guji!" The cowardly bug turned over and got up from the ground.

Fortunately, it is just timid and its defense is actually quite good.

The timid bug that has not yet evolved relies on its hard shell and has a physical defense of up to [40] points!

The physical defense is much higher than that of Yongjira! Only slightly lower than that of Alakazam!

Even the collision trick from the extremely high-level wild Metapod only seriously injured it, but did not knock it down in one blow!

"Good job! Coward!" Wang Yao quickly took out a bottle of medicine spray and sprayed it at the coward!

"Guji~" The cowardly bug felt a cool sensation all over his body, and his strength was restored a lot!

Using medicine in outdoor battles is a normal operation for trainers in the game!

"Go ahead! Coward! Use the harsh sound to weaken the opponent's defense first!" Wang Yao changed his tactics again and used the Thirty-Six Strategies of Pokémon Battles - See the Bug and Take Off the Armor!

See Bugs and Remove Armor: When you see a bug-type Pokémon, you must weaken the opponent's shell defense! After removing the opponent's shell defense, the damage of your Pokémon will increase!

"Gujijiji——!" The cowardly bug made a series of shrill insect chirping sounds, which made Wang Yao want to cover his ears involuntarily!

The Metapod has already landed on the ground, and due to its slow speed it is unable to avoid the insect's chirping... The Cowardly Bug's skill instantly takes effect!

The Metapod felt very uncomfortable when it was hit by the piercing sound! It also wanted to cover its ears! But it had no hands... It had to continue using the collision trick on the cowardly bug!

But the cowardly bug was prepared this time, and used his absolute advantage in movement speed to play tricks on the opponent by circling around the open space!

In addition to using the piercing sound to interfere with the opponent's impact moves, he also occasionally sneaks up from behind and uses his metal claws to scrape the Metapod!

"Pupa! Pupa!" The hardening trick was restrained by the harsh sound, and the collisions repeatedly missed! The Metal Pupa was gradually feeling exhausted.

"Swish!" Another metal claw successfully hit the Metapod that was unable to dodge!

This time, with the harsh sound weakening, the cowardly bug successfully left a conspicuous scar on the shell of the Metapod!

"Guji!" The cowardly bug was like a ruthless assassin. After the sneak attack, it turned around and ran away! It didn't give Metapod any chance to counterattack!

"Well done! Coward!" Wang Yao was very satisfied with Coward's tactical thinking!

Level suppression is not really strong, the victory of combat (dirty) skills is the real victory!

And the coward has won at this time!

"Pupa!" The Metapod is in trouble!

The attacks of the cowards are becoming more and more threatening to them!

The survival instinct of living things makes a mysterious power radiate from the body of Metapod!

Quietly, a crack appeared in the cocoon shell!

A beam of white light appeared from behind the Metapod! In the blink of an eye, it covered the entire body!

Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi!

Don’t despise the poor and the little bugs!

After the light faded, Metapod evolved into Butterfree with wide wings!

The entire evolution process takes less than a second!

The angry Butterfree flapped its wings and flew into the sky!

"butterfly--!"

A pair of huge compound eyes stared at the cowardly bug in front of it!

call--! call--!

From cocoon to butterfly! Butterfree's power from its wings explodes instantly!

A strong storm swept towards the cowardly bug!

It appeared - the first generation flying-type exclusive magical skill [Fierce Storm]!

It can blow up hot air balloons and explode robots!

What cyclone attacks and divine bird strikes!

Not even as good as one of Lie Baofeng's leg hairs! (referring to the attendance rate)

"Butterfree!" Butterfree used all its strength!

[Cricket, you are just an alien bug! How dare you provoke me! You have already chosen your own death! ]

"Oh no! Coward! Get out of the way..." The moment Wang Yao saw the Metapod evolve, he realized that something bad was going to happen.

"Guji!!" The cowardly bug was so scared that its eight little paws kept sliding on the ground!

Because it was too nervous, it wanted to escape... but couldn't!

A strong wind swept through!

With no hope of escape, the cowardly bug could only cower where he was!

"Come back! Coward!" Wang Yao took out the Poké Ball and shot out a red beam of light, putting the coward into the ball!

"Butterfree..." Butterfree stood there in a daze for a moment.

It was supposed to be a one-on-one life-and-death game! You actually resorted to trickery!

Before Butterfree could react.

"Go! Little Fire Horse! Use the charged flame attack!" Wang Yao stretched out his hand and pointed, and the little fire horse behind him instantly leaped out!

"This is called singles rotation! Boy!" Wang Yao's mouth curled up and revealed a Dragon King smile.

"Whoa!" Flame rushed towards Butterfree!

Finally, he can fight wild Pokémon! Ponytail can't wait!

With flames covering his entire body, Flamingo rushed towards Butterfree in the air with all his strength!

boom--!

Butterfree, who had just used a skill and had nowhere to dodge, was directly knocked away by Charmeleon!

Half a second later, with charred burn marks on its body, Butterfree slammed heavily into the tree trunk behind it!

Then he slid down slowly along the tree trunk...

The newly evolved Butterfree was already exhausted and could not withstand a full-strength charged flame attack, and was immediately declared dead!

Although Butterfree's evolution in battle is not based on martial ethics!

But Wang Yao was open-minded, treated the insects with sincerity, and remained calm in the face of danger!

It's a one-on-one duel! Just one Pokémon at a time!

With extraordinary courage and determination!

Wang Yao commanded the cowardly bug and the little fire horse to take turns to fight, and they went through thousands of difficulties and dangers! In the end, they succeeded in narrowly defeating Butterfree!
