Chapter 7: Chapter 7 Pikachu Vs. Squirtle
"Squirtle Squirtle—!" Squirtle, who received the order, launched an attack without hesitation. The Water Type energy was stimulated in the body and gathered in the mouth, forming a small stream of water. Under its control, it turned into a small stream Fire the Water Gun from its mouth, straight for where Pikachu is!
"Pikachu, dodge the attack." Although it was the first actual combat, Ash did not panic. Facing Squirtle's attack, he calmly let Pikachu avoid it instead of confronting it head-on.
"Pika!" Pikachu yelled softly and carried out Ash's order. He dodged sideways and dodged Squirtle's not-so-fast attack. For Pikachu who spent time in the wild, there is no threat.
After the Water Gun was dodged by Pikachu, it bombarded the Ground not far behind him, splashing water everywhere.
"Squirtle, rush up, and use Tackle!" Gary was not discouraged when he saw this, he was also very aware of Pikachu's advantage, and the attack just now was just a probing behavior, and through the simple probing just now, he already roughly understood Now, what is the strength of this Pikachu.
Although it is also the first time to become a Trainer and the first time to engage in actual combat, Gary's true strength is not comparable to that of an ordinary Rookie. As a genius, he has talents different from ordinary people. I can see how capable Pikachu is, and I am also surprised by Pikachu's actions.
In his eyes, although Pikachu's movements are not brilliant, they are very proficient. He seems to have a lot of combat experience. Normal is not like an Earl Dervish Pokémon at all.
At the same time, on the battlefield, after receiving the order, Squirtle immediately stepped forward with his short legs and rushed toward Pikachu. The Normal Type energy was stimulated, covering the whole body, strengthening his own body, and at the same time, it even slightly increased Squirtle's speed!
This is the Earl Dervish Pokémon cultivated by Alliance. Their initial strength may be quite satisfactory, but in terms of the use of moves, they are not comparable to ordinary Pokémon!
Facing the attacks of Gary and Squirtle, Ash narrowed his eyes slightly, and immediately issued an order, "Pikachu, after dodging the attack, use Thunder Shock!"
"Pika—!" Pikachu watched Squirtle's movements closely, and when the opponent was less than one meter away from him, he took action, dodged to the left, avoided Squirtle's attack, and then launched a counterattack!
Electric Type energy excitation, launched from Pikachu's electric bag, the small electric arc seems not powerful, but it is extremely fast, hitting Squirtle almost instantly!
"Squirtle—!" Squirtle was completely unprepared, and after being hit by Thunder Shock, he let out a miserable cry. The Water Type was restrained by the Electric Type, and this blow caused double Attribute restraint damage to it!
"Squirtle!" Gary's pupils shrank slightly, clenched his fists, and gritted his teeth slightly. This Pikachu's movements were too sensitive, somewhat beyond his expectations.
The arc dissipated, and there was a little smoke floating on Squirtle's body, but he didn't fall down. He just panted slightly to reveal his current condition, and his physical strength had dropped a lot!
However, at the next moment, a cool breath surged from Squirtle's body, and water-blue energy surged out, and then retracted into Squirtle's body. This was its Ability: Torrent was activated!
Gary's expression didn't change when he saw this scene, and he was even a little dignified. The torrent was activated, which means that Squirtle's physical strength has dropped by more than two-thirds. This is very bad news for Squirtle and him!
"Break the distance and use the Water Gun!" There was no way, Gary immediately changed his tactics, he wanted to keep the distance between the two, and let Squirtle counterattack with the Water Gun through the bonus brought by the torrent!
"Squirtle———!" Squirtle stepped back immediately, widening the distance between himself and Pikachu, and at the same time activating the Water Type energy. With the addition of the torrent, Squirtle's energy activation speed was accelerated by half. Use the Water Gun faster than before!
The water sprayed out from its mouth, and the speed in mid-air also became faster, almost in front of Pikachu in the blink of an eye!
This kind of speed made Ash almost unable to react, and the sudden increase in speed really made Ash not expect it the first time.
But Pikachu has been vigilant all the time. At this moment, the experience he has gained from surviving in the wild makes him roll for the first time, and the Water Gun almost brushes his hair and passes by!
"Bang!" The water gun bombarded the ground not far behind and even smashed a small hole. The power was obviously much stronger than before!
"Actually... was dodged?!" Gary looked at this scene in astonishment, Ash obviously didn't react, this was Pikachu's own action, and it actually made such an action without Trainer's command. It was beyond his imagination.
And Squirtle showed the same look of astonishment. It was also very confident in its attack just now. During the training period of Alliance, it had never been dodged after the attack after activating the torrent ability!
"I was careless..." On the other side, Ash was a little annoyed. He was too immature to command a battle for the first time, and he shouldn't have made such a mistake. Fortunately, Pikachu is not an ordinary Earl Dervish Pokémon, otherwise, he would be affected by this If you hit the Water Gun attack, your stamina will drop a lot.
"Cheer up!" Ash's eyes narrowed, and he became more and more serious. While Gary was still stunned by the SmackDown attack, he gave Pikachu an order, "Encore, Thunder Shock!"
"Pika pika—!" Pikachu launched a counterattack without hesitation, the Electric Type was excited, and the arc blasted out, landing on Squirtle, and the golden electric blast enveloped Squirtle's whole body!
"Squirtle———!" Squirtle, bathed in the electricity, let out a painful wail again, and then couldn't hold on for long, fell to the ground, passed out, and lost consciousness.
"Squirtle!" Gary exclaimed and finally came to his senses. He immediately ran to Squirtle and squatted down, checking Squirtle's condition. He didn't let go until he saw that Squirtle was only physically exhausted and did not suffer any physical damage. Take a breath.
"You've done a good job, Squirtle, I'm not mature enough, I'm sorry..." Gary took out the Poké Ball, took Squirtle back, and was unwilling to become Trainer's first battle, the first battle with Ash, lost.
"Pikachu, you did a great job, thanks for your hard work!" On the other side, Ash breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, he didn't want to lose the first battle, especially... the opponent was still Gary!
"Pika—!" Pikachu puffed out his small chest proudly, with his hands on his hips and a smile on his face. After becoming Ash's Pokémon, he was happy to help Ash win.
