Chapter 207: 207. Not Now

"Come back, Hitmonlee!" Ash decided to take back the newly evolved Hitmonlee to rest up. It had been seriously injured in the battle just now, so there was no immediate need to force it to battel.

"Why did you take it back? I still want to see how powerful your Hitmonlee is!" Max murmured as if complaining about this, but May just slapped him on the head.

"May, why did you hit me?!" Max covered his head and looked at May angrily, but suddenly noticed Ash's eyes were also looking towards him, and quickly shrank his neck, "Sorry, keep going, keep going! I'm not going to say anything, I promise!"

Ash really waneyed to say that this a is a Pokémon battle, not a show for you. It is the Trainer's responsibility to pay attention to the status of their Pokémon.

Caroline on the side smiled secretly, 'Ash is perfect for my little May!

"Coil and ready to strike, let's go Dratini!"

Seeing Ash sending out a Dratini, Max immediately exclaimed, "May, mom, did you see it? This is the same Dratini that defeated several of the opponents Pokémon in the battles it was part of in the Silver Conference!"

Norman was also shocked when he saw thsi Dratini, but he quickly came to his senses. As a Champion, it is not surprising to have a Dratini of this strength. "Ash, your strength is very surprising. This is the last round. Fight me with all of your strength!"

"Isn't Dad really going too far in this match?" Max looked at the battle and looked at Norman's expression in doubt.

"No way!" Caroline, as a wife, really knows Norman well, "He is like this because he is very happy!"

"Happy?" Max didn't seem to understand the true meaning of being a Trainer, he just thought it was a cool thing to be.

Norman threw his third Poké Ball, "Go ahead, Slaking!"

Sure enough, his third Pokémon was Slaking. Unlike what was stated in the Pokédex, this Slaking was standing facing Ash and Dratini without its usual lazy demeanor.

This shows how the bond between this Slaking and Norman is, which is very high. This Slaking's power is almost at the same as level as Ash's Snorlax.

This is Norman's second strongest Trump Card after his other Slaking!

"Dratini, let's begin with a Blizzard!"

Ash took the lead in launching an attack this round.

The cold wind and snow hit Slaking.

In the blink of an eye, it was covered with a layer of ice crystals.

However, Norman seem to not panic at all.

After Slaking came on the scene, he changed his previous serious face to a more calm one, which was obviously a sign that showed his absolute trust in his Slaking's strength and its confidence to win this battle.

"Ash, this kind of attack can't make my Slaking lose, I have trained it to long resist such attacks, now use all your strength against him. Slaking, use Focus Punch!"

This Focus Punch is one of the strongest move of the Fighting-type, but Ash was not planning on trying to train his Pokémon to master this skill.

Although this skill is very powerful, it requires a certain amount of time to accumulate momentum. If it is attacked during this process, it will be interrupted and all the energy will disperse!

How to use such skills in a quick battle is a very big test for a Trainer!

The momentum of Norman and his Slaking made Ash frown a bit. Dratini's current strength is still too weak to beat such an opponent, but with its Extrreme Speed ​, it has always had the upper hand in speed.

Slaking is very powerful Politically when it comes to both offense and defense, but its biggest weakness is that it can't attack continuously.

"Dratini, use Dragon Tail!"

Dratini's figure suddenly disappeared at a blinding speed, his Dragon Tail knocked Slaking's Focus Punch away, and then a tail hit it hard on his head!

"SLA!"

At this time, Slaking finally roared, obviously very angry because his attack got destroyed!

"Oh, damn, Dratini seems to have made it very angry!" Caroline knew Norman's Slaking very well, now it was going to use its full strength because it got pissed!

"That's exactly what I want!" Ash smiled slightly, so what if he is serious about it, what if he gets angry, he is still lazy, and will still need to take a break after attacking!

"Thunder Wave!"

Dratini doesn't have many powerful attacks to use that can do damage to Slaking right now, so the best thing is to put it into a condition of Paralysis. The shocking electrical current shoots out from the white horn on its forehead and wraps around Slaking's body!

"Oh no! Slaking is paralyzed!" Max instantly knew the current situation!

Slaking blasted his own chest, and his momentum continued to increase, but suddenly a flash of electricity flashed across the entirety of his body, and he felt a sudden but more numbness in half of his body than his upper body. Paralysis came into effect as he is unable to move from where he was!

"Alright then, another Dragon Tail!" Dratini hit Slaking on the head with another one of his Dragon Tail. Now Norman only has this Pokémon left, Slaking, so it will not be forced back into its Poké Ball by Dragon Tail.

In Slaking's eyes, this Dratini is as slippery as Diddys house! And he knows how that feels like like.

"Slaking, use Earthquake!" Norman knew that he had very few chances left to attack, so the skills Slaking will be using from now on are some of his strongest attacks!

Ash saw that Slaking splashing high, its huge body sinking and falling, and the concussive power continued to spread from its feet to his upper body.

There is no way to dodge such an attack, and Dratini and Ash could only resist it!

By the time the attack was over, Dratini had consumed a lot of energy to stay up. Ash frowned and said, "Dratini, use Blizzard continuously!"

The biting cold wind blew, and the entire battlefield suddenly became a frozen wasteland.

May sat next to her mother and shivered, "It's so cold now..."

Slaking just stretched out his palms to resist, but was quickly frozen. The ice spread from Slaking's palms and quickly sealed them whole.

"Slaking, use a Hyper Beam to heat yourself!" This is a Normal-type ultimate move, but just as Slaking was about to move, electricity flashed across his body, and he felt numbness all over his body. Slaking was immediately unable to move because of the Thunder Wave!

Dratini's Blizzard continued on, and it moves around the Slaking, encasing it in a heavy case of ice, making the ice on its body and out of its body thicker and thicker!

No matter how strong Slakings defense is, such long stretches of being frozen will definitely consume a lot of his energy!

"Slaking, use Slack Off!" Unexpectedly, Norman has another trick up his sleeves, which is the scary part of Slaking. It can relax the muscles of the whole body through Slack Off and slowly restore part of his physical health.

Although the recovery effect is much worse than that Rest can give, it makes the battle at this moment a tug-of-war!

"Dragon Rage!"

This was Ash's final trick. Dratini consumed a lot of energy and if he couldn't defeat Slaking right now, he would challenge again next time with some of his other newer Pokémon's! Ash wasn't really planning on getting the Gym Badge right now, he just wanted to see the fruit of his Pokémon's training.

"Dra!"

Dratini stopped its Blizzard attack and let out a childish dragon roar to the sky. Its belly was glowing, and the large quantity of pure Dragon-type energy was concentrated and spewed out from its mouth like a Flamethrower!

A dense Dragon-type energy blasted towards Slaking, blasting the ice outside into pieces.

"Is it over?" Ash's body flashed with blue light, but he found that Slaking was still barley standing there but ultimately did not fall down!

Such a thick skin and strong defense, Ash finally felt how his opponent felt when facing his own Snorlax.

Dratini was exhausted, so Ash took out his Poké Ball, "Come back, Dratini! Thank you for that."

"Mr. Norman, let's stop here. When I come back here, I will challenge you again with a better understanding!"

————————————————————

After his battle inside of the Petalburg City Gym.

Ash went to the Pokémon Center in order to heal up and teleport Hitmonlee and Phanpy back to Professor Oak's Laboratory for further training under their seniors.

Team Rocket, which was following him all the way, took advantage of Ash's absence and launched an attack on the Gym. With a bang, a not so small hole exploded in the outer wall of the Gym!

The rising smoke and dust immediately attracted the eyes of the family of four, and Max even fell onto his back. May covered her eyes, "What's going on out there?"

"Since you asked so sincerely-!"

"We will tell you with great mercy!"

"Shut up! We don't have time to say all that, meow!"

"While the big boss is away, we have to finish our work!"

"We're were to catch the Pokémon from this Gym!"

"This is our first appearance in the Hoenn Region, it must be grand entrance!"

They said all the later part in a quite voice to not let them hear their grand plan.

Jessie and James were very proud of themselves. They had been watching outside for a long time and saw with their own eyes how powerful Norman's Vigoroth and Slaking were in this Gym.

Taking advantage of Ash's temporary absence, they launched a decisive hidden attack, trying to make a quick victory and capture all these Pokémon that had gone through the battle and were in their weakest form!

It should be noted that they really hade made a good plan this time around!

"You are...Team Rocket, I heard Ash talk about you guys!" May heard Ash talk about the Rocket Trio and knew clearly that they were a bunch of annoying guys.

"Ah, are they your friends, May?" Seeing May tell them their names, Caroline ignored the big hole in her wall and actually said thanks to them, "Thank you for taking care of my little May!"

"No, they are very bad people!" Norman doesn't have any of his other Pokémon's or stop them, and now Ash is not here, what should they do?

Jessie and James reacted quickly, having already thrown their Poké Balls, Weezing used Smokescreen, blocking the view of everyone in the room.

"Everyone, be careful!" Norman finally realized that the two people in front of him came to invade his, but now he must protect his wife and children first before anything else!

So he threw out the Poké Ball that was holding his Slaking, even though it was injured from his battle against Ash.

"Arbok, use Tackle now!" Arbok is a slippery snake, and along with its partner than can use Smokescreen, it was able to see through it, and it hit Slaking hard.

However, it seemed like Jessie's Arbok hit an iron plate because it didn't even make a scratch on Slaking.

"I saw it clearly. Although this Slaking is powerful, it can't attack continuously, so what is this?" Jessie and James had carefully watched the battle between Ash's Dratini and Norman's Slaking.

So they didn't worry much about this Slaking at all, and quickly took the opportunity to snatch all the injured Pokémon here!

In the smokescreen, Max always stood beside May, "May, why don't you take out your Pokémon? When you encounter a Pokémon, you should use your own Pokémon to fight!"

After hearing this, May also made up her mind to join the battle, "Alright then. Go, Torchic!"

But she still didn't know what to do, "So I have to use a move, but what should I use?"

With only a few basic skills in total, May hesitated a bit. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Arbok knocked Torchic away with one swing of its tail. Team Rocket was not very welcoming of Torchic's interruptions.

"Torchic!" May became even more panicked!

Jessie and James have taken control of the situation, "Now!"

"May, tell it to use Ember!" Max quickly reminded May, who was finally able to react and call out, "Torchic, use Ember!"

They saw bright fire shining in the Smokescreen, turning Max into a human charcoal.

Who knows if Torchic did it on purpose or not.

"Ohh, Max, are you okay?"

"It's okay, Torchic's Ember is really not that hot, I'm alright... I think." Max experienced the power of a Pokémon firsthand, which must be a good lesson for him.

The Smokescreen dispersed and Team Rocket had withdrawn form the battle after being easily beaten up Slaking. They did complete their surprise attack mission before Ash could came back. But Slaking, who still by Norman and Caroline's side and not something Team Rocket can beat, has not been taken away.

"Dad, my Torchic is missing!" Only the Torchic that May just got as her Starter Pokémon is missing form here, so she she is now really anxious about it.

The family chased them out of the big hole in the wall, and saw that Team Rocket had flown into the air in with their hot Air Baloon and put Torchic in a cloth bag at the bottom. They looked proud and said, "We will take this Pokémon away, bye for now!"

Torchic is the Hoenn's Regions Royal Starter Fire-type Pokémon. So of course it is naturally a very valuable and an excellent Pokémon in genera. Additionally. it is obviously very easy to get from the very inexperienced May. Team Rocket really made a good plan this time to not attack when Ash was here.

They didn't say much this time, and before Ash came back, they were already hurrying away after achieving their small goal!

Watching them fly further and further away, May sat on the ground in frustration, "My adorable little Torchic, I just got you not long ago and now you're already gone from me! What am I supposed to do without you in my life?!"

"This can't be like this, Sis!" Max wanted to pull her up, "Let's go find Brother Ash, he must have a way to get your Torchic back to you!"

"What happened here?" As soon as Max finished talking, Ash came back to them. He had just talked with Professor Oak about the rewards to him because he caught all three of the Legendary Beasts, and he said that they were already on their way, but it had to be delayed for some time.

"Ash!" Hearing Ash's voice, May suddenly felt like she had found hope, "Team Rocket, took away my little Torchic!"

"Pika?"

Even Pikachu was puzzled as to why Team Rocket appeared so soon again to cause trouble.

It seems to fit their description, so Ash quickly agreed, "Don't worry, we will definitely rescue your Torchic!"

So the group of five people started chasing in the direction in which Team Rocket's Air Baloon flew. It's a pity that no one here has Flying-type Pokémon, otherwise there wouldn't be so much trouble!

Ash left his in the Lab because they were training in the way he told them to, but now he was regretting not bringing his Pidgeot with him.

"Then let's search separately from this point!" Norman suggested, and then he took Caroline to search in another direction. The relationship was really good between them.

"Leg me see if they left any footprints!" Max was lying on the ground with a magnifying glass, not knowing what he was looking for.

"Yeah sure, look at ground, it's not like Team Rocket flew away in the sky!" May was very pissed that this kid was still showing off!

"That's right!" Max quickly stood up from the ground and said with a proud look on his face, "This way I can use my mind, develop brilliant reasoning. Sis, from now onwards, you are my subordinate and will help me to solve this problem!"

May couldn't stand it anymore, "Stop talking nonsense, you moron!" And then punched him in the head.

After being hit a couple times, the Max's eyes were filled with tears and he actually fell to the ground and rolled around, "Why did you hit me?!"

Ash couldn't stand it any longer, so he too hit Max in head with a fist. He immediately held his head and cried out in pain, "It hurts. Brother Ash, you hit him too hard! What did I do to deserve this?"

"Max, you don't stop your hectics now, I will show you my Fist of Love!"

"Ash, let's hurry and gi find my Torchic, okay?" May was really anxious!

"Everyone, we've found it!" Norman and Caroline came back after some unknown time. Ash was a little sweaty and didn't know if they saw him beating their son.

However, they didn't seem to care even if they it, and quickly led everyone to find the Rocket Trio's hot Air Baloon. The three of them seemed not to be there, but Torchic was locked in a cage next to the hot Air Baloon.

"Torchic!" May and Max ran over immediately, and there was no doubt that this was all a trap.

And seconds later, Ahs was right. The two of them fell into a trap created by the Trio.

Ash grabbed Norman and Caroline, who were about to run over, "Leave them to me!"

A pink light flashed in his eyes, and May, Max and Torchic were brought over to him via his Psychic. Max floated in the air and suddenly exclaimed, "Brother Ash, are you really a Psychic?"

Ignoring him, the mission of rescuing Torchic was now completed, Ash shouted sharply, "J1, J2, and Meowth, come out here immediately!"

"Yes sir!" The Trio rushed out of the jungle with a few berries after hearing Ash calm them by the code name he made for them. When they saw Ash, they immediately smiled and said, "Boss, would you like some?"

"Do you have any information about the mysterious organization from before?"
