Chapter 18 Better to Mating
"But speaking of which, since the Snow Fairy is here, could it be that Haruka is also nearby?"
"Mighty Chicken, use Flamethrower!"
Just as Lin Ye thought of this, he heard a familiar voice from behind. Accompanied by a scorching aura, a pillar of fire brushed past Lin Ye, passed behind him, and crashed into the black pillar of light.
The four forces combined and managed to hold off the "Evil Wave". The energy fluctuated back and forth at the center line of the collision before finally exploding completely. A violent vortex of ice shards, flames and shadow energy flew out, mixed with dust and debris!
"Lin Ye, is that really you? Are you alright?"
"Haruka? How did you find out I was here?!"
"I happened to be training nearby when the Snow Fairy suddenly said she sensed your presence and insisted on coming over to check on you."
Later, it sensed that your breathing was unstable and, worried, left first. I followed, and thankfully, I made it in time.
"But how did you manage to provoke someone of this level in the lower areas of Mount Songshen?"
"It's a long story, but thank you for coming to help me. Let's get this problem solved first."
"What? You think you can escape from my grasp just by bringing in two helpers? Wishful thinking!"
The old prince's crimson eyes grew increasingly fierce, and his four jet-black limbs moved in unison, attacking the four Pokémon like four pythons.
Zoroar absorbed the energy of two Pokémon, greatly increasing its strength. Now, it is using its excellent type combination to fight them.
May's Mighty Chicken and Snow Fairy are both at the peak of "Excellent" level, with solid energy and excellent fighting skills. They each fought to a standstill against the attacking arm.
Only the giant pumpkin spirit, though large in size, was also a big target. It was quickly pinned down by Die Shi Guan and began to beg for mercy.
Just as their Pokémon were about to be defeated one by one like dominoes, May took out an Ultra Ball and said helplessly:
"I promised not to use it easily, but now there's no other way!"
When the ball was consecrated, it released a Pokémon that was entirely white, with brown stripes on its back, a tuft of red hair on its head, and a long, monkey-like face!
"An hyperactive ape! And a 'professional' one at that!"
"This is the Pokémon my dad gave me for self-defense before I left home. I promised not to rely on its power, but this opponent is too strong, so I have no choice but to ask it for help."
"It's Gym Leader Senri's Pokémon! We're saved!" Lin Ye breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
On the other hand, Die Shi Guan was shocked. The white-haired monkey that the little girl had taken out was not only at the same level as him, but also had a much deeper aura judging from the energy fluctuations it emitted. He couldn't help but want to retreat.
Perhaps the hyperactive ape had been locked up for too long and was feeling restless. Before May could give any command, it burst into action, its claws already coated with a layer of shadow light!
The old prince hurriedly retracted his limbs, folded them together in front of his chest to form a jet-black energy ball, and threw it out to defend against the hyperactive ape's sudden attack.
"Bang!"
The shadow energy formed two layers of light shields at the center of the collision. The side belonging to the Lost Coffin gradually weakened, its energy shattered, and it was slapped away.
"Shadow Claw" is a move that counters Ghost-type moves. The old prince was severely injured by the attack and dared not linger. After falling to the ground, he ignored the pain and injuries and turned into a shadow, walking close to the ground.
Not satisfied with its attack, the hyperactive ape tried to chase after the enemy recklessly, but was instead caught by Haruka and retrieved into the ball from a distance.
"Sigh~, Hyperactive Apex's personality is so lively, it's really tough on it to stay in the ball for so long." Haruka put away the Ultra Ball and said shyly.
"I believe that with your talent, Xiaoyao, you'll soon be able to train your Pokémon to 'professional' level!"
"Thank you for your kind words!"
As Xiaoyao spoke, she looked at Zorua again, which was currently in a unique emerald-washing form.
"As you can see, my Zorua is actually quite special, and its form is very different from the usual Zorua."
That's why I don't want it to be exposed to others so soon, so could you keep this a secret for me, Haruka?"
"Of course, no problem. My dad has always told me that rare and unusual things should not be exposed in front of others, and I completely understand that."
Before you become a powerful figure capable of standing on your own, you certainly cannot easily reveal Zoroa's special abilities.
By the way, is this pumpkin spirit also Lin Ye's Pokémon? Its size is quite rare too.
As she spoke, she walked over to the giant pumpkin spirit and touched it, her pretty face showing surprise at the latter's size, which far exceeded that of its kind.
"Wow~, Lin Ye, yours is huge! But it seems a little weak after the big battle, let me apply some ointment to it!"
Xiaoyao took out a small spray bottle and sprayed it all over the pumpkin spirit, which immediately recovered.
This special recovery medicine is very expensive, and most trainers wouldn't use it unless they were in a crisis. This shows that May is quite wealthy.
"I really envy Lin Ye's luck; you always manage to encounter such special Pokémon."
Bringing such a giant pumpkin spirit to the grand competition stage would definitely be a visually stunning event.
If paired with suitable and dazzling special effects, it would definitely result in a perfect presentation.
Her eyes grew brighter as she spoke, and she circled the giant pumpkin twice, as if admiring a masterpiece of art.
The giant pumpkin, which had been drooping, flickered slightly in its empty eye sockets upon hearing Xiaoyao's words.
It secretly sized up Xiaoyao. She was young and beautiful, dressed fashionably, and seemed to come from a well-off family, otherwise she wouldn't have given herself expensive medicine so casually.
The loyal Pumpkin thought for a moment and realized that following this rich woman would be much more comfortable than following Lin Ye, a trainer who was incredibly daring and acted too recklessly.
Just then, the snow fairy beside Xiaoyao floated in front of Lin Ye. Her beautiful, jewel-like eyes looked at Lin Ye quietly, without the coldness of battle in them, but instead with a hint of intimacy.
It stretched out its slender, seemingly made of ice and snow hand and gently touched Lin Ye's arm, expressing its affection.
Seeing this, Zoroah felt a little jealous and whimpered in dissatisfaction, but because the Snow Fairy had just saved his life, he didn't say anything.
Xiaoyao felt a little sad, because her Froslass had never shown such affection towards her, her own trainer.
But the next moment, a brilliant idea suddenly flashed in her clever little mind, and a bright, slightly mischievous smile appeared on her face:
"Lin Ye, how about I discuss something with you?"
"Huh~"
"Look,"
Haruka pointed to the Pumpkin Chieftain on the ground, "Your giant pumpkin spirit is very special; it would be a huge highlight at the Grand Contest! And what about my Snow Fairy?"
She then pointed to the snow fairy beside her, who was looking at Lin Ye with tenderness: "It seems... to like you very much!"
So, why don't we mate... oops, I mean, exchange?
