28.47% Pokemon: Bond Evolutions of Pokémon / Chapter 85: 85. The Race

Chapter 85: 85. The Race

Ash's two Grass type Starters have both completed the evolution of their final forms, as well as their Bond Evolution.

As Ash expected, when they complete their final evolution, their bond value will also increase very quickly.

As a result, among Ash's six Starter Pokémon, only the two Water type have not yet evolved.

Judging from Wartortle's form, it should be able to evolve very soon.

After Ash found the next Pokémon Center, he teleported Venusaur back, and then teleported Typhlosion back to him, intending to complete his Bond Evolution as soon as possible.

"Is it them?" Ash and his group met an acquaintance as soon as they came out of the Pokémon Center.

No need to guess, it was the Rockets trio.

"By the way, why are you used to calling us like this?" Ash didn't even bother to complain about them after all the things they went through together.

"Team Rocket, what bad things do you want to do this time?" Misty asked a very good question.

However, this time the Rockets actually defended themselves and said they had no intention of doing anything bad. Meowth stood up and said, "We are going to participate in the Hot Air Baloon Race here! Meow!"

Ash remembered that when they entered the town, they saw a cross in a circle on the grassland outside the town.

"It's a competition where you ride a hot air baloon, from a height of a thousand feet in the sky, and drop the marker most accurately on the target on the ground!" Brock checked the travel brochure to explain the method of this hot air baloon competition. .

"Hot Air Baloon Contest?" Molly became interested, "Big Brother, can we participate?"

"But we don't have a hot Air Baloon!" Ash rubbed Molly's head. This competition doesn't use Pokémon very much, so he is not that much interested in this kind of competition.

Unexpectedly, Molly pointed at Team Rocket and said, "Don't they have one?"

Of course the Rockets have a hot Air Baloon, and they are planning to use that hot Air Baloon to participate in this.

So, Ash, who didn't want to let Molly down, looked at the Team Rocket trio.

Misty nodded, "That's fine, Team Rocket, just lend us the hot Air Baloon you guys use. Last time, Ash helped you rescue your Wobbuffet! Anyway, when you said you were participating in the competition, any way, you will be cheating in that competition! So, let us use this."

Hearing this Meowth was furious at this, "This time we have to participate in the competition with integrity!"

He actually sounded very righteous when he said this, "It's about the dignity of our Hot Air Baloon skills, and therefore we must win the championship!"

"And you, can you even fly a hot Air Baloon?" Meowth asked a very good question.

This is really not possible, Ash still feels that riding Charizard is the most comfortable and didn't pay attention to this.

As he spoke, Ash's eyes lit up, "Speaking of which, your hot Air Baloon is driven by Meowth, right?"

"Of course, I'm the best!"

"That's it, Misty, Brock, tie up Jessie and James. Meowth, Molly and I will compete in this race!"

It's such a simple yet effective decision!

The Team Rocket trio didn't even have a chance to refuse. Jessie and James were already tied up and taken back to the Pokémon Center.

Then Ash took Meowth and Molly to sign up for this competition.

"Okay, sit carefully in the Hot Air Baloon and hold onto something!"

Hearing Molly cheers, Misty smiled and said, "Ash, be careful that she doesn't get hurt!"

"Molly, be careful up there! Meowth, make sure to win this!" Brock also has several younger brothers and sisters, so he understands Misty's worry for Molly.

Some time later, the sun was shining brightly, the sky was clear and the breeze was blowing, making the people feel relaxed and happy. It was a good time to host the annual hot Air Baloon competition.

There are a lot of hot Air Baloons gathered outside the town, including those that look like Hoppip, those that look like Voltorb, and those that look like Wigglytuff, etc.

According to the rules of the competition, Trainers can bring out the power of Pokémon, so there were 6 Hoppips pulling Hoppip's hot Air Baloon, and all kinds of Flying-type Pokémon were gearing up.

Ash took Molly and Meowth aboard Team Rocket's Meowth Ballon.

In fact, he just came here to make Molly happy and add another core memory to her.

Meowth was the only one who was actually serious about the competition.

"It's time for you to rise, Noctowl, dazzle them!"

Ash had trained his Noctowl in valleys with strong winds before, so he just wanted him to train a little more this time.

"No need..."

Before Meowth could speak, he was choked by Ash eyes and quickly changed his words, "Ash... sir... boss..."

"No need, that idiot Giovanni is your boss!" Ash didn't bother to pay attention to what he said, "I just let him fly with me, you can drive your own!"

Meowth didn't dare to speak.

Misty and Brock took Jessie and James to watch the game not far away. The two had Meganium's Vine Whip tied to their bodies, preventing them from moving to prevent them from ruining the game again.

"Well, Sir Ash, if you win the game, how will you divide the rewards?" Meowth asked tentatively.

The prize of this competition is a newly developed steel burner, which is not attractive to Ash....

"It's all yours if you contribute. Anyway, even if it's a steel burner, Pikachu can chop it into pieces!" Ash is really confident about Pikachu's current power.

"Um...thank you?." Meowth said!

The competition started immediately, and all the hot air baloons took off together. Meowth's skills were really good, and he quickly caught the wind, and the speed of the hot air baloons immediately increased.

But other hot air baloons are attracted by Flying type Pokémon, and they quickly catch up with them.

Meowth is unwilling to give in.

"At the risk of the dignity of the Hot Air Baloon pilot, Noctowl, please!" Meowth looked at Noctowl who was following him and asked for help.

Ash nodded towards Noctowl, originally intending to let him do this.

With Noctowl's traction and Meowth's cooperation, Hot Air Baloon continued to accelerate, surpassing one opponent after another!

"That's great! Come on!" Molly danced in Ash's arms!

However, great joy brings sorrow, a thundercloud suddenly formed in front of them, and many hot Air Baloons lost their balance and fell in the sudden change of the wind.

Meowths hot Air Baloon also had some problems going on.

"Ahh, Sir Ash! The burner of my hot Air Baloon is flashing with flames, and the flame is about to go out."

"Our burners is cheap, so they could explode at any time and blow us away. Now this thing is about to explode!"

"Please, Big Brother, please think of a solution quickly!"

Seeing Meowth's scared look, Ash could feel that Meowth really wanted to win the game honestly.

He nodded, removed the burner of the hot Air Baloon, and threw it out.

Sure enough, a bolt of lightning flashed across the thundercloud and it exploded.

But without the burner, the hot Air Baloon will naturally start to fall.

"Typhlosion, get ready!"

After Typhlosion came out, Molly still lay in his arms. Typhlosion's fur was soft and warm, Mollys liked this the best about him.

"Typhlosion, low powered Flamethrower!"

Typhlosion added flames, Noctowl was responsible for traction, and Meowth controlled the Air Baloon, finally crossing this piece of area.

"It's now!"

Ash seized the opportunity and threw the marker down. From a height of a hundred of meters, he accurately hit the center of the fork!


Chapter 86: 86. Rhydon

"Typhlosion, take this with you!"

Ash exchanged for another Macho Brace for his Typhlosion to wear. In the past week, he mostly focused on training his Typhlosion and complete his final Bond Evolutions.

Perhaps because of his old self, Ash is particularly concerned about his Fire type Pokémon. His second Pokémon that involves evolution is also a Fire type, that being Houndoom.

Therefore, he also has high hopes for the current Typholsion.

And he believes that Typhlosion will not let him down.

Now the Macho Brace has almost become the standard equipment for Ash. The Pokémon that have completed their Bond Evolution, except for Pikachu and Meganium who travel with him and Charizard who is training in the Charicific Valley. There is also Scizor who is training in the Academy. Other than that, all the rest that have completed everything are training in the Lab and getting ready to be called back to him.

When the Bond Value reached the full mark, they were connected with Ash and knew the benefits of this Macho Brace that brings to them. Although the training was very hard, they enjoyed the reward very much.

Slowking, who is in charge of Ash's Pokemon's training in the backyard of Professor Oak Laboratory, wears this kind of restraint day and night and leads the others by being an example.

Its speed is already slow. If the speed is reduced by half with this thing, it will actually have no impact, but the benefits are huge in the future with higher reaction speed and everything.

"Lap?"

At this moment, Lapras, who was watching his brothers and sisters training in the water, suddenly screamed in surprise, it quickly attracted the groups attention.

After Lapras was born, Ash would ask the group to stop and rest whenever they encountered water along the way, let him play in the water, and train some other Pokémon.

This was the case in the herb garden before, and it is still the case now.

"War?"

Then, Wartortle also seemed to have discovered something. He dived into the water, but quickly jumped out of the water with an expression on his face that he had seen a ghost.

"Wartortle, what's going on?"

Ash looked into the water and found that there was indeed something in the water, and he could see ripples on the water.

Then, the ripples grew larger and larger, and a single horn suddenly poked out of the water.

"Big Brother, what is that?" Molly sat on Lapras's back and also saw the single horn.

Ash shook his head, a blue light flashed on his eyes, and he was very surprised when he saw the true identity of the horn in the water.

"I'm going to get this guy!"

That's a Rhydon. In the water. Without drowning at all.

(Fun Fact: Did you know that Rhydon was the first Pokémon created?)

Rhydon is the evolved form of Rhyhorn. It looks like a dinosaur and is covered in gray rock armor.

According to the Pokémon Pokédex created by Professor Oak, this Pokémon is protected by armor-like skin and can even survive in 2,000-degree lava. The horn that turns into a drill can easily rotate, and even rough diamonds can be easily crushed.

All in all, this is a very powerful Pokémon!

Moreover, the current Kanto Region is not yet aware of this but Rhydon still has a final evolutionary stage left!

Rhyperior is a super-large Pokémon that evolved from Rhydon carrying a special Protector.

What's interesting is that this Rhydon is obviously of Ground and Rock Type, but it can learn Water type skills such as Rain Dance, Hydro Pump, Surf, Whirlpool, etc.

This Rhydon must have learned the Surf skill to stay in the water. Of course Ash likes such a special Pokémon.

He was so excited that he was about to send Wartortle to look for it in the water. Misty immediately didn't believe it when she heard about it, "There's no way a Rhydon can stay in the water! It's impossible!"

"But it really does exist!" Suddenly a nice voice came from the side. This was a pretty young lady with a green ponytail, and she was holding a Marill in her arms.

Brock rushed over immediately, "What a beautiful lady! My name is Brock. May I ask for your name?"

"My name is Pietra, and her name is Mary!" She introduced herself.

Brock was very excited, "What a beautiful name! To express my sincerity, how about enjoying milk tea with special jam with us?"

Brock did well today by not causing the other to freak out, but Misty still pulled him away by his ears, "Okay, don't hinder the conversation!"

Ash said, "So, Pietra, you seem to be looking for that Rhydon in the water too, right?"

She nodded and led the group to a tunnel under construction, where several Dugtrio, Graveler and Sandslash were working.

This Tunnel was dug out by Pietra.

"If you want to go to the city, you have to cross this mountain. Unfortunately, my grandma is old and her legs and feet simply can't handle all that traveling. So I want to dig a tunnel so that she can easily go to the city!"

This tunnel is not just a convenience for her grandma, it is a project that benefits a lot of people and should be supported by others.

However, she seemed to have encountered some trouble.

"The tunnel is just a little bit away to being able to be penetrated. However, the excavation process will not only be blocked by the huge rock, but also seepage of groundwater."

As soon as she finished speaking, a few drops of water fell on Sandslash and Graveler. They immediately stopped working and ran out in discomfort.

This really makes it impossible to continue with working here, and thus the progress continues to be delayed.

"So you are looking for that Rhydon that can stay in the water, and hope we can help?" Ash nodded, "I will catch that Rhydon, and then help you open the tunnel with it."

Ash immediately led the group and their new friend back to the lake.

"Big Brother, how are we going to find that Rhydon? It's probably deep underwater." Molly looked cute and thoughtful while speaking her mind.

"The place where Rhydon was found has its footprints. I will take you to see it!" For Pietra, as long as the tunnel can be completed, it will all be fine, so she is very happy to help.

Following the huge footprints, Ash and his party found an orchard, where the fruits should be the Rhydons favorite food.

"So, this is the place!"

A blue light flashed on Ash's body, sensing everything near him, then he looked behind him. Sure enough, the big guy was walking over from under the bushes.

"Wartortle, this battle is yours!" Ash summoned his Wartortle, "Rhydon, I challenge you to a battle! If I win, you come with me!"

Rhydon looked at Ash and Wartortle, nodded, and then.

Ran?

"Chase him!"

Ash decisively ordered Wartortle after seeing the Rhydon jumping into the water.

"You think choosing water as your battlefield will be better for you! Wartortle, enter!"

The water is Wartortle's stage. Of course, it is not afraid at all and jumps down.

Ash activated his power over Aura and paid attention to the battle in the water by sensing them move.

Rhydon confronted Wartortle in the water, and then launched the attack first. Its horns spun wildly, causing a vortex in the water!

Ash's eyes lit up, "This big guy actually learned Whirlpool. Where did he learn it from?"

"Wartortle, use Rapid Spin!"

Use spin to fight spin, and beat this big guy with a real head-on confrontation!

Wartortle withdrew its head and limbs and spun wildly on the spot, triggering a small vortex that collided with Rhydons Whirlpool!

The two vortexes that were in opposite directions had exactly canceled each other out!

"Wartortle, use Water Pulse to force it out!"

The Water Pulse in the water set off a huge wave. Rhydon immediately used his Surf skill and stood up on the wave!

But this is exactly what Ash wanted, he came out of the water!

"Wartortle, now, use Hydro Pump to knock it down!"

After evolution, Wartortle's Hydro Pump no longer requires the rotation of the turtle shell to perform. It is already very good at Water based skills, and this time it used an amazing Hydro Pump directly from its mouth.

Knockin the Rhydon off the wave.

Water type attacks are super effective against Rock and Ground type Pokémon like Rhydon!

Even if he learned Water type moves, his typings are still weak to Water.

"Now!"

Ash found the right timing and sent out one of his Poké Ball!
