Chapitre 816: Manipulaton
After defeating the Inkay, Yuga and his group continued toward the black building.
However, they hadn't taken many steps when they were blocked by a Pangoro and two Pancham.
But to think about it, It made sense; the leader of the forest was controlling this territory, so it wouldn't rely solely on the useless Inkay to guard its lair.
The Pangoro before them was much stronger than the Inkay they had faced.

...
This was the first green potential Pokémon Yuga had encountered on his journey, and aside from the towering Trevenant, it had the highest level among the Pokémon they'd seen.
The Pangoro roared at Yuga and his group, baring its teeth, raising its massive fists, and glared at them menacingly.
The two Pancham followed suit, each holding a fresh green bamboo leaf in its mouth, with hands on their hips, trying to "intimidate" Yuga and his group.
However, the two Pancham were just too cute, and their attempts at looking fierce only melted Yuga's heart.
Capture them, they must be captured.
Seeing the adorable Pancham, Yuga's eyes practically lit up; they were too cute.
Compared to the Pangoro, the two Pancham had lower potential and less strength.

Yuga encountered real Pangoro and Pancham for the first time, and he felt a mysterious fondness for them. Despite Pancham's less-than-ideal potential, he was determined to capture them.
Observing the situation of these three Pokémon, Yuga deduced that they likely had no direct familial relationship. The two Pancham appeared to be the henchmen of the Pangoro.
The Pangoro on the other side, noticing Yuga's unwavering gaze, felt slighted and grew furious. It clenched its fists and charged aggressively at Yuga and his group.
The two Pancham followed suit, running with their small fists raised and making playful gestures.
However, the level 18 Pancham tripped over a vine while running, falling flat on the ground with its bamboo leaf flying out of its mouth.
Seeing this, the Pancham at the back of the group glanced at its leader and older brother, who hadn't noticed, then hastily got up, patted its belly, quickly retrieved the bamboo leaf, and nonchalantly continued "charging."
Wasn't that just too cute?
Watching the small actions of the Pancham, Yuga nearly burst into laughter. Were they really here to fight?
Although their potential wasn't outstanding and the level 18 Pancham was quite young, the Inkay they had encountered earlier averaged levels of around thirty.
As the Pangoro charged, Florges immediately unleashed two vine whips, rendering the Pangoro immobilized.
As for the two Pancham, they were kicked aside by the two Skiddos that had charged forward from behind Yuga's group.
Seeing the Pancham being kicked away, Yuga felt a pang of guilt. The Skiddos didn't seem to hold back at all.
While the two Skiddos weren't particularly strong, they had no trouble dealing with the Pancham.
Despite its fierce appearance, the Pangoro was very protective of its henchmen. Witnessing its two younger comrades defeated, it grew extremely angry and roared in an attempt to break free from Florges' vine whips.
However, the Pangoro was not the protagonist of a TV show or a novel, and its furious efforts couldn't overpower Florges' vine whips. In the end, it was knocked out cold by the breeze of Florges' Fairy Wind.
With the resistance gone, Yuga captured both the Pangoro and the Pancham into Poké Balls.
What Yuga didn't know was that their battles with Malamar and these Pokémon had all been observed by three Malamar inside the black structure.
"Malamar, Malamar."
The leading Malamar extended a tentacle and beckoned toward the darkness. Two Pokémon emerged, a Heliolisk and a Gogoat.
"Malamar, Malamar, Malamar, Malamar."
The Malamar conveyed a series of instructions to the two Pokémon. The Heliolisk and Gogoat nodded mechanically, then proceeded outside.
Defeating the Pangoro and Pancham made Yuga realize that the situation was far from over. As the lair of the Malamar, which controlled the entire forest, its defenses couldn't be this weak.
As expected, just as Yuga and his group reached the entrance of the black structure, the doors automatically opened, and a Heliolisk and a Gogoat slowly stepped out.
"That... that's my brother's Heliolisk!"
Bonnie immediately recognized her brother's Pokémon.
"Heliolisk! Where's my brother? How is he?"
Bonnie waved excitedly at the Heliolisk, and even the Skiddos and Gogoats they were riding showed signs of joy as they looked in the direction of the Heliolisk.
Yuga noticed the excitement of the Skiddos and Gogoats. He realized something when he looked at the opposing Skiddos.
But before Bonnie, the Skiddos, and the Gogoats could enjoy their happiness for more than a few seconds, a golden beam and green seeds were fired at them.
The golden beam was Heliolisk's Charge Beam, and the green seeds were Gogoat's Seed Bomb.
Under the attacks from Heliolisk and Gogoat, Bonnie screamed, and the Skiddos and Gogoats on Yuga's side also changed their expressions.
"Heliolisk, what's wrong with you? It's me, Bonnie!"
Bonnie anxiously called out to Heliolisk, while the Skiddos and Gogoats became increasingly restless.
Fortunately, Florges reacted quickly, using the power of Moonblast to intercept the attacks from the two Pokémon.
"They must be under some form of control. They can't hear our voices."
Looking at the vacant expressions of Heliolisk and Gogoat on the opposite side, what more did Yuga need to understand?
When it came to hypnotism, the most famous were the Hypno and Malamar, with Malamar's abilities even surpassing those of Hypno.
According to Pokémon Scientist, Malamar possessed the strongest hypnotic abilities in the Pokémon world. They could manipulate opponents at will.
"So... what should we do?"
Bonnie looked worriedly at the controlled Heliolisk.
Yuga replied, "Defeat them and then find the Malamar controlling them. We have no other choice."
While Yuga and Bonnie were talking, Heliolisk and Gogoat launched another attack. However, Yuga had been keeping a close eye on them and reacted swiftly.
