43.04% Pokemon: Bond Evolutions of Pokémon / Chapter 130: 130. Lance

Chapter 130: 130. Lance

Although Tyrouge was just caught, Ash still decided it would be better for the new Annihilape to stay with him for now.

In the Lab, it can be trained by many powerful Pokémon belonging to Ash, and his strength will definitely improve by leaps and bounds there. Staying with him will only slow it down for now because they can't fight other people right now.

Regarding the issue of evolution, Ash had a long talk with Tyrouge with the help of his very intelligent Slowking.

Sure enough, this kid absolutely does not want to evolve into one of his three forms. This must have also been the reason why it's previous Trainer abandoned him, all because he refused to evolve.

Although he clearly has such an excellent fighting talent, but he is still very unwilling to evolve, this is very fatal to many Pokémon's and their Trainers.

It is true that evolution is an important way to gain strength. This is the case with Ash's Charizard, which relied on his evolution to obtain the strength it wants.

Now that most of Ash's current Pokémon have completed their evolution, they are also fighting for his dream of becoming a Pokémon Master along with theirs.

To train a Pokémon that does not want to evolve to become powerful, the effort required will be unimaginable!

But now that he has caught him, Ash is willing to take responsibility for it to the best of his abilities!

Moreover, as a Pokémon that has not evolved, its compatibility and Bond Value are already very high.

It has fully recognized Ash as its Trainer and will definitely train hard for him. Ash believe that he will be completely transformed soon and his strength will undergo earth-shaking changes!

As for whether it will complete its evolution in the end, he left it to fate just like his Bulbasuar and Squirtle. Maybe he will change his mind and evolve like those two after feeling that his current strength is not strong enough or maybe he will become like Pikachu, completing his Bond Evolution without evolving into his final form.

After walking out of Mt. Mortar, Ash and his group walked inside another forest. As long as they passed through this forest, they will reach Mahogany Town.

However, Phanpy and Togepi's spirits suddenly slumped to a very low level, and even Meganium was walking a little slower but not enough for most people to notice, but Ash and Molly did. Only Pikachu was able to stay perfectly normal out of all of them.

"Hey, Meganium, what's wrong with you?" Molly was the one of the first to notice the changes happening to Meganium. It carried her on the whole trip. Although it was much much better than the young Phanpy and Togepi, she felt something was up.

A blue light flashed on Ash's eyes when he did a quick scan across the forest, "Not only Meganium and the others, but all the Pokémon in the forest have also become like this!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several Catterpies and Spinarak hung from the tree, which frightened Misty.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, a terrible beast roar came from the other side of the forest.

Ash showed a deep frown when he heard that noise. That roar was from clearly a Pokémon that was very angry and in deep pain!

Aware of this, Ash quickly took Meganium and Phanpy back to their Poke Ball, let Molly hold Pikachu, and ran towards the direction of the sound with her on his back.

After running through the forest, Ash and his party came to a huge lake!

"The sound just now must have come from around here!" Brock's judgment was indeed very correct. The next second, a vicious and violent existence suddenly jumped out of the lake!

"Roar!"

Bright red like a blood-stained beast, Gyarados has long been known for its cruelty across the world!

"It's a Gyarados!" Brock and Misty exclaimed at the same time. Brock deeply understands the horror of facing a Gyarados, and Misty has always had been afraid of Gyarados since she was a child!

First all of those Bug-type Pokémon, and now a Gyarados, Misty felt very attacked today.

Ash looked at the way the Gyarados twisted in the water and said, "This Gyarados is in immense pain!"

However, before Ash could investigate further, the blood-red Gyarados attacked them with a powerful looking Hydro Pump!

Ash quickly set up the an Aura powered Shield to block the Hydro Pump form reaching them.

This attack was very powerful!

After firing a Hydro Pump, Gyarados seemed to sense something and jumped back to the bottom of the lake.

Ash retracted the Aura on his body and looked to his side, "This is indeed those Team Rocket's work again!"

At this moment, the person who appeared next to Ash and his group was a strong man from Team Rocket, followed by a few other Grunts.

The strong guy looked very imposing, "Now that you have seen that red Gyarados, I can't let you go so easily!"

With that said, he threw out his Poké Ball, "Go ahead, Feraow!"

Why isn't his Pokémon affected?

"Pikachu, Thunderbolt!"

Pikachu is the one of the strongest in his team and has Light Ball for extra power, so there was no problem.

In addition to Pikachu's Thunderbolt, their was another attack that hit the Fearow, it was an Ice Beam, which immediately knocked the Fearow out of combat capability.

What appeared next to Ash and his group turned out to be a Dragonite. This was the Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon of the Kanto Region!

Coming off from it was a handsome man with red hair and a long cape!

"You guys hurry up and run away from here for now!" He wanted Ash to run away from here, but how could Ash run away now?

"They are just some Team Rocket Grunts, how can I run away from these morons!" ASH simply stood in front of Dragonite, pointed at the Rockets and ordered, "Ok, you have caused enough problems for everyone here, so get lost, Pikachu, Thunder!"

"PIKA!"

A terrifying thunderbolt struck from the sky, blowing up the Team Rocket Grunts!

After defeating the Team Rocket Grunts, Togepi's spirits improved from that pitiful state.

Molly felt reassured and became excited because she saw the cute and fierce Dragonite!

"Thats a very powerful Pikachu, so you must be Ash Ketchum, right?" Seeing Ash's performance just now, the handsome red-haired guy seemed very surprised.

Ash nodded, "That's right. I'm Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town, nice to make your acquaintance Mr. Lance!"

"Wow, so he is really Lance, one of the Kano Elite Four and Johto Champion!" Brock also immediately recognized Lance, "The Strongest Dragon Trainer!"

As Gym Trainers, both Brock and Misty certainly know about Dragon-type Trainer.

"But, Mr. Lance, how do you know Ash?" Misty expressed confusion about Lance knowing about Ash.

Lance just smiled and looked at Ash, "I have admired Ash's work for a long time now.

He independently solved the Crystal Tower incident happening in Greenfield. Single handily destroyed Team Rocket's Dark Poké Ball conspiracy and rescued Celebi. Destroyed Team Rocket's base on Ogi Isle, rescued Lugia, and the one who caught both Suicune and Raikou! There is so much to cover!"

Regarding Ash's various deeds while traveling in the Johto Region, Lance naturally felt that he should be the one to tell all of them.

"Thanks to you, we were able to follow the clues and were able to blow a powerful attack on Team Rocket. I never expected that I would be able to find a Team Rocket's secret laboratory in the Lake of Rage, and I just met you!"

"Ash, if you are willing, I hope to invite you to join the team of Pokémon Investigators!"

Lance actually invited Ash to the organization he was part of!

"Pokémon Investigator?" Misty and Molly both exclaimed out loud, and then their eyes sparkled, it sounded so cool!

"Investigating people everywhere who are improperly using Pokémon and bringing them to justice. This is the mission of our Pokémon G-Men!"

"Ash, your character and strength have been unanimously recognized by The Alliance, and Professor Oak himself highly recommends you! When encountering Pokémon, you care more than anyone else and will never ignore them."

"I know you have to continue your journey. But becoming an investigator will not really delay your journey. It will only make it much more convenient for you to get more support from The Alliance when you act on something!"

"Besides, I can also make the decision and agree to a request of yours within my power!"

It sounded like something that could be done with no harm at all, and since it was Professor Oak's recommendation, he would definitely not miss the chance. Ash pondered for a moment but ultimately agreed to it.

"Ok! I'm in with this Pokémon G-Men thing!"

"Then my request is, I want a Dratini, preferably if I'm can choose it myself!"


Chapter 131: 131. Project R

Ash made a decisive request and asked for a Dratini.

Dratini is exactly what the Dragonite in front of me looks like before it evolves. A Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon like them is very difficult to meet in the wild.

Of course Ash had to seize such a good opportunity. He had already taken the opportunity to subdue a powerful Tyranitar, and now he wanted to subdue Kanto's Pseudo-Legendary!

This matter was definitely within Lance's ability, and it would not be too hard for him. He immediately agreed to it, and when Ash and his party arrive in Blackthorn City, they could go to Dragon's Den and pick a Dratini by themselves! There is a lot of Dratini living there! The best Dratinis are there, waiting for their fated Trainer!

"Thank you so much!" When Ash gets his Dratini in Blackthorn City, the location of the last Badge, Ash will definitely take it with him to the next region for training.

"You're welcome, Ash. I'll send your Pokémon Investigator Badge and ID to the Pokémon Center in Mahogany Town. I'll have to trouble you again in the future! As I said before, The Alliance will reward you based on your contribution. Professor Oak is the one that kill keep an eye on your progress!"

Lance said with a smile, of course he became an Investigator for the sake of the Pokémon's itself, but The Alliance also knows that it cannot do things based on just passion alone, so they reward the people that deserves it, and they definitely are not cheap with it.

This is why Lance, a member of the Kanto Elite Four and the Johto Champion, agreed to all of this.

All in all, this has no real impact on Ash's journey, it is just a matter of title. He just has to help The Alliance when he is net there. His journey is still just a journey, and the bumpy road is still something he has to overcome. It's just that his Journey will be more convenient and he can get more support from The Alliance.

He can also get a Dratini for himself, that's the real thing he wants!

After talking and inviting Ash to the Pokémon G-Men, Lance's expression darkened, "Ash, we have received information that Team Rocket may be conducting some kind of large experiment at the Lake of Rage. Look at the current situation, that red Gyarados may be hiding many secrets of Team Rocket!"

Ash nodded to what Lance said, "Otherwise, that big guy just now wouldn't be so nervous after seeing us. He must have been here to the place and eliminate everyone that comes near here!"

"Mr. Lance, do you have any plans for them right now?" Brock asked in a small voice. What they should do now is to cooperate with Lance and provide him with all the support they can give out.

He nodded, "I have found out Team Rocket's secret base and am preparing to sneak in by disguising myself to find out what kind of experiments Team Rocket has been doing in this area!"

This is Lance's usual method, he is an expert at disguising himself and getting the necessary information, and it's more reliable than many of the other methods.

"If you want to sneak in by disguising yourself..." After hearing this plan, Ash grinned, "Team Rocket, come out quickly. I need your guys!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Trio of Team Rocket, who were so hungry that their hands and feet were weak, walked out of the bushes like zombies.

"Listen brat, we are not your subordinates, meow!" Meowth looked indignant to Ash's words.

Ash just ignored what he said, pointed at Lance and said with a smile, "This guy here is a real Pokémon Investigator. He can really arrest you in seconds right now."

Molly pinched the Wobbuffet that suddenly jumped out, "Big Brother has also become a real Pokémon investigator!"

Looking at this weird trio and the non-standard Rockets uniforms they were wearing, Lance was also very confused to see them, "Ash, who are these three people?"

Upon hearing this, the trio immediately became energetic from their dead self!

"Since you are sincere in asking the question!"

"We will tell you out of mercy!"

"Enough!"

Ash shouted to stop their self-pleasure, "Now you sneak into Team Rocket's secret laboratory. You are members of Team Rocket yourself. If you find out what is going on here, report it immediately. Do you understand what I said?"

"Yes sir!"

"Wobbbbuuuffettt!"

These three were really obedient to him and immediately headed towards Team Rocket's base that Ash pointed out. They responded flexibly and swaggered into the base.

Taking advantage of the opportunity while they were being interrogated, Lance also put on a standard Rockets uniform and sneaked inside the base. He couldn't help but laugh when he saw the trio talking nonsense about how they could do anything as long as they had enough to eat.

Ash's subordinates were really thoughtful of him!

It just so happened that the Rockets here were short of manpower, so the trio was successfully able to go inside without too much complication.

They were also given a good meal because they looked like a zombie.

They felt that their lives were complete. "Not only could we have a good meal, but we could also participate in the formal combat plan. We finally started to move forward towards our promotion."

"On the right path to Team Rocket!"

There was no mental preparation for being treated as cannon fodder in their head.

"After you've eaten, it's time to begin your work!" The big moron in Ash's words, Tyson, the captain of the plan execution unit, came over with a man with a creepy smile.

"No problem, we will work hard, meow!"

"By the way, who is that person standing behind you?"

Tyson didn't care about the Rookie Trio in front of him at all, and said casually, "You don't know who he is? Professor Sebastian here is the person in charge of Project R!"

"Project R, what is that?" They had been hearing him talk about Project R before, and they were also curious to know so they could report it to Ash.

"This Project R is the revolutionary plan that our team are the most proud of!" Professor Sebastian showed off in a gloomy voice.

All the "Professors" belonging to Team Rocket are virtuous and believe that their projects are the most proud and revolutionary for humankind.

"You made it very clear, but I'm still confused about what we are supposed to do!" James summed it up very succinctly, "So, what is the plan we have to follow?"

"In the Lake of Rage, there is a red Gyarados lurking deep. I want you to catch it! It is an indispensable experimental material for Project R. You must capture that at all cost."

"Can I ask this, what are you going to do with that red Gyarados?" James asked tentatively.

"I'll just tell you some of the contents of Project R!"

Professor Sebastian doesn't mind telling these cannon fodders about Project R at all. Such a great plan should receive more praise from more people!

"Project R is Team Rocket's great plan to control the evolution of a Pokémon. That red Gyarados is the ironclad proof that our sound wave evolution we developed was a success!

That's it. Professor Sebastian looked at the trio of cannon fodder and was unwilling to say anything more, but this information was enough for both Ash and Lance!

"Evolution by radio waves?" Ash murmured solemnly.

"Ash, that is to say, that red Gyarados evolved under the action of Team Rocket's evolution-promoting radio wave?" Brock thought of the first point, and blamed them for being so cruel!

"Yes, evolution is the most vulnerability moment of a Pokémon. It is a great initiative of God itself, but Team Rocket actually wants to artificially interfere with this, and their ambition to be superior to God will one day be the reason of their complete destruction."

Ash gritted his teeth and said, "Another reason to why I call him a big fool!"

"That's right, he is a big dummy!" Molly probably still doesn't fully understand what Ash means but still goes with the flow.
