"Oh? Pidgeotto?"
"My Pinsir is not afraid of bird Pokémon like some Catterpie or Weedle. "
Despite seeing that Ash released Pidegeotto, the Pinsir warrior boy was still full of confidence.
"Well, as a reminder, although Pinsir is huge, he is not very afraid of bird Pokémon, but Pidegeotto is a Flying Type, which restrains the Bug Type Pinsir in terms of Attributes."
Misty explained "kindly" from the side.
The Pinsir warrior boy's face turned red as he had been embarrassed.
"I know, you don't need have to remind me, Pinsir rush over and use Vice Grip against Pidegeotto."
~Pinsir~
Misty crossing her arms, stood beside Ash, and curled her lips.
Trainer, who doesn't even know the most basic Attribute restraint, would be better off going home and playing with Joshua for a while before going out to travel.
What a fool!
"Pidegeotto, fly and use Gust."
Not only is the Pokémon weak, but the Trainer's command level is also unflattering.
Ash felt slightly disappointed.
Except for the trio of Team Rocket who are funny, this is his first Pokémon battle with a Trainer.
As a result, it was really difficult for him to be interested.
If confronted with a Flying-type Pokémon that dominates the skies, Pinsir's best strategy is to bide its time as it lacks flight capabilities and possesses considerable mass.
Wait for the opponent Trainer to make a mistake and command Pidegeotto to launch a close attack, and then wait for an opportunity to launch a counterattack.
There might still be a chance to win.
If the opponent's Trainer doesn't give him a chance and directs Pidegeotto to fly the kite.
Since Pinsir does not possess any efficacious long-distance attacks, its failure is almost inevitable.
This is the actual world of Pokémon, not a game where we take turns playing against each other.
Pokémon with the ability to fly are akin to kites soaring on a gust of wind. This leaves non-flying Pokémon, especially those who doesn't have long range attacks feeling hopeless and despondent about their inability to fight.
Naturally, this strategy relies on the premise that both sides have a relatively equal level of strength.
Pidgeotto's level surpasses that of Pinsir, in addition to having attribute restraint.
Just dodge the attack and defeat the enemy with just one move.
No need for kite-flying tactics, just pure hard power to crush!
Pidgeotto effortlessly evaded Pinsir's assault on the battlefield before taking flight with a flutter of its wings.
Pinsir was left unable to fight due to the fierce blow dealt by Gust.
Ash yawned.
It is indeed a boring battle, almost like battling wild Pokémon.
If it weren't for the system rewards, Ash would not be at all interested in engaging in such a battle.
"Damn it, Pinsir!"
The Pinsir warrior boy was half-kneeling beside Pinsir who had lost the ability to fight.
His eyes, which were crystal clear but lacked intelligence, showed his disbelief.
He was such a big Pinsir, he was defeated so easily?
Pidegeotto looks less than 1/3 the size of Pinsir!
He gritted his teeth and took out another Pokeball from his waist.
"Don't be complacent, the battle is not over yet, come out Metapod."
Samurai Boy released Another Pokémon which is surprisingly the same Pokemon as Ash's, a Metapod.
"Pidgeotto, please return."
Ash returned Pidegeotto to its Pokeball.
The Pinsir warrior boy looked stunned.
"What's the meaning of this?"
"It's nothing. I just don't want to continue fighting anymore."
Ash shrugged.
"Do you look down on me?"
"I don't mean that, I just think there's no need to fight against people who don't know how to care for Pokémon. It is perfectly understandable that you might not be familiar with Attribute restraint and proper command tactics, as everyone begins in a state of ignorance. But if you don't care about your Pokémon..."
Ash stopped abruptly and did not continue speaking.
Warrior boy in the original story, used Ash's captured Metapod to criticize and mock his commanding skills by taking advantage of the situation.
Now it's really nice to accuse the other party from the moral high ground.
No wonder everyone likes to be a moral bitch.
But don't think he'll stand up and take care of all Pokémon. But at least he will do his best for the Pokémon he captures.
This is the most genuine belief in Ash's heart.
"What do you mean by being indifferent towards your own Pokémon?"
Pinsir warrior boy asked quickly.
"Don't you know that after Catterpie evolves into Metapod, you should try to avoid fighting? This is not helping it, but rather harming it! The more intense the battle, the more energy is consumed, and the lower the probability of Metapod successfully evolving into Butterfree! These are public information and can be easily found. "
Ash's mouth explained Metapod's information.
"I understand now. It's no surprise that the Metapods subdued by the village friends have a low success rate in evolving, whereas there are numerous instances of successful evolution among wild Metapods."
With shame in his eyes, the Pinsir warrior boy retrieved the Metapod and returned it to its Pokeball before ultimately surrendering from battle. Then he apologized to Ash and Misty and thanked them for the reminder.
Ash and Misty mutually accepted his apology with a nod and chose not to say anything further.
There are so many people like Pinsir Samurai Boy who set off on a trip just because they are passionate about Pokémon without even knowing the most basic information.
Even Ash, the popular Alliance Rookie Trainer from the original plot, shares similarities with the bug-catching boy.
Gradually, he grew up after enduring numerous brutal defeats.
Presently, Ash is one of the few reliable Rookie Trainer among other rookie trainers.
[Ding, the mission is completed, and you will receive the reward: Golden Magikarp clue*1, Magikarp evolution potion. ]
[The Pinsir warrior boy was convinced and decided to change.
Obtain additional rewards: Elementary Rare Candy*3, which can be used by Pokémon under level 30 to increase their level by one.]
[The rewards have been placed in the system space and can be taken out at any time. Once taken out, they cannot be put back again. ]
As soon as the Pinsir warrior boy surrendered, a message indicating that the mission was accomplished naturally appeared on Ash's mind.
Apart from the well-deserved Magikarp clues and Magikarp evolution potion, he was also gifted three more Elementary Rare Candies.
You can't tell, but the system is quite positive!
Ash thought to himself as he rubbed his thumb between his index fingers habitually.
Then with a thought, he used the newly obtained golden Magikarp clue directly.
Golden arrows, visible only to him and elusive in nature, materialized abruptly before his eyes.
If you go in the direction of the arrow, locating the golden Magikarp should be possible.
By using the navigation function, one can avoid the awkwardness of being lost like a fool.
Impatient for the golden Magikarp to join the team, Ash gestured a thumbs up with his backhand. Grabbed Misty's hand and proceed swiftly towards the direction indicated by the golden arrow.
As a result of Ash's audacious move, Misty's face blushed and contorted as if she had been jolted by electricity. She swiftly pulled back her hand.
Seeing that Ash had no other reaction, but continued to move forward, she felt slightly disappointed.
The small hand, with nowhere to lay itself down, fluttered before being tucked behind its back.
