Chereads / The Terror of Option / Chapter 950 - 4(poke)

Chapter 950 - 4(poke)

After defeating Kirlia in battle, Rogue captured it with one of the System Pokeballs. The device emitted a bright flash of light and sucked the pokemon into its confines without a struggle.

Once it was safely inside the ball, he released Kirlia again, but the exhausted Pokemon remained on the ground, panting heavily and looking up at him with hearts in its eyes.

team, let me give you a gift, "To commemorate you joining my tea Kirlia." Rogue said with a smile as he stood up with his pencil still dangling.

He then summoned the Pokeman Serum from his inventory and it appeared out of thin air like magic.

Dawn saw Rogue's subspace ability, and she couldn't help but stare in wonderment. She had seen him do this before when they were in the waterhole in the cave.

*Tap Tap Tap*

Rogue tapped on the Pokeman Serum tube like a druggie, watching the liquid bubble inside of the glass tube.

"What's that, Rogue?" Dawn asked, standing up after the pleasurable experience.

"It's a Pokeman Serum. I got it after I captured Lopunny. It'll turn Kirlia into a humanoid Pokeman like Lopunny," Rogue said as he popped the needle out and looked at Dawn.

He then asked Dawn: "Are you curious? About this and my ability."

Rogue felt that he's going to do this more than once, and he knew that it was going to be hard to hide it from Dawn, especially because he's going to travel with her in this world.

"Nnmh, you don't need to tell me," Dawn smiled sweetly as she placed her hands delicately behind her back.

As if on cue, a gentle breeze swept through the forest, rustling the leaves and carrying with it the earthy scent of pine and damp soil. Dawn's long hair danced around her face, framing her delicate features.

The gentle breeze tousled Dawn's long hair, causing it to dance around her face. She ran her fingers through the silky strands and tucked them behind her ear as she spoke. "I have a request for you, Rogue," she began, her voice filled with nothing but sweetness. "As much as your abilities and possessions intrigues me, I must ask that you keep them a secret. There are so many strange powers in this world, and I do not wish to be a burden who could one day reveal your secrets. Someone like Nurse Joy might even kidnap me and do just that, so I wish for you to keep it a secret."

"Is that alright with you?" Dawn closed her eyes as a smile came across her face.

In that moment, the sun broke through the canopy of leaves above, casting dappled light on her features. The soft glow highlighted the delicate curves of her face, making her appear almost ethereal in the tranquil setting.

Rogue stared in shock at Dawn's request and beauty, and for some reason... he felt like he was really falling in love with this girl. Visual and physical attraction is one thing, but having an emotional attraction is another thing.

After a moment of silence, Rogue couldn't help but say: "Dawn, why are you so perfect? I feel like I'm really falling for you all over again."

A bashful smile spread across Dawn's face as she leaned towards Rogue. "Oh, Rogue. I may appear perfect to you, but I have countless flaws and imperfections that I am constantly working on," she replied humbly.

Rogue's heart swelled with love as he handed her the readied Pokeman Serum. His gaze never wavered from her, captivated by her beauty and inner strength.

"Let's give this a try then, shall we?" he suggested, turning his attention to Kirlia before them. The anticipation and excitement for the second Pokeman filled the air around them.

"You're letting me do it? Thanks!" Dawn beamed as she accepted the glass tube. She was really interested in how Rogue's Pokeman Serum would affect Kirlia.

Would it turn Kirlia into a humanoid Pokeman like Lopunny? She could only try it out...

Taking a deep breath, she approached Kirlia and injected the serum without any resistance from the gentle creature. Of course, even if Kirlia had wanted to refuse, it was already captured in one of Rogue's System Pokeballs, rendering it unable to resist.

But even if it had been given the option to refuse, Kirlia wouldn't have hesitated for a moment. The thought that's going through its head is that the people in front of it gave it so much pleasure. Perhaps they're giving it more...?

At the moment, even if Kirlia wanted to refuse, it couldn't because it was captured using one of Rogue's System Pokeball. Though, it didn't want to refuse in the first place.

Rogue also looked in anticipation of the Pokeman Serum's effect. This is his first time using it after all.

.....

As the serum coursed through Kirlia's body, a bright and blinding glow enveloped it, similar to an evolution glow!

"Rogue, is it evolving!?!?" Rogue covered her eyes from the blinding light and asked.

"Either that or something similar," Rogue replied, also covering his eyes from the light.

The blinding glow continued for approximately 30 seconds before disappearing. A figure, larger than Kirlia's previous form, appeared.

Dawn stepped back in awe as she watched the transformed Kirlia appear. It had gained more human features, especially its hair, hands, and face! Though, it still has its red disc on its head and white dress skin that flowed over its green legs.

"Wow, Kirlia looks amazing!" she exclaimed, her eyes wide with wonder.

"I'm really baffled too..." Rogue remarked, admiration evident in his voice. He wondered if he would even be able to use Kirlia and Lopunny in official battles now that they have humanoid forms.

Kirlia opened its eyes and looked at Rogue and Dawn with excitement. It could sense the changes in its body, and the changes were all positive! It felt as if it was so much healthier and stronger than before!

Rogue couldn't help but reach out and touch Kirlia, her green hair.... fleshly body... and breasts.

"This is incredible," he remarked, running his fingers through Kirlia's soft hair. "I can't wait to see how it'll turn out once it evolves."

Possibly due to the fact that Kirlia was already in a humanoid form, she looked especially good when the Pokeman Serum was injected into her.

-x-X-x-

As Rogue and Dawn as they headed back to town, Kirlia bounded gracefully in front of them, its green and slender legs carrying it effortlessly through the grass path. A gentle breeze caused its silky white dress to flutter behind it as it led the way back to town, its sparkling eyes reflecting the sunlight.

"Kirlia~" it commented happily, its voice light and airy like a tinkling bell.

"I think this is the start of something amazing, Rogue. It'd be so awesome if you're able to create more of these." Dawn said, marveling at Kirlia's existence.

"Aha, I too think it'd be awesome if I can create more," Rogue dryly laughed and said vaguely.

He recalled that he got the Pokemon Serum by eating Lopunny. He had planned on eating Kirlia after injecting her with the Pokeman Serum to try and get another Pokemon Serum before reviving... but he faced a major problem.

What kind of dish should he make with her? Barbeque? Hotpot? Perhaps some Kirlia curry? He knew he had to plan out the dish well so that he could use her to the best of his abilities...

Obviously, he doesn't want to eat raw meat, and he's planning to cook all his meals.

Oh, and eating a humanoid Pokemon did crept up in his mind but at the end of the day, it's still a Pokemon. He already ate a humanoid Lopunny before anyways...

Rogue walked silently behind Kirlia and Dawn, deep in thought. He couldn't deny that the temptation to eat Kirlia right now was strong - after all, he had already seen the power of the Pokeman Serum and wanted more. But he just couldn't make out what dish he should try and make.

As they walked into town, Rogue immediately noticed more and more people staring at them. Kirlia drew even more attention as it chimed "Kirlia, Kirlia~" in its singsong voice.

On their way back to the Pokemon Center, Rogue couldn't help but notice a group of three girls gathering around a coffee shop that had a TV on display. His curiosity piqued, he guided Dawn and Kirlia towards the group to see what was going on.

"I can't believe human-like Pokemons exist!" One of the girls with waterish blue hair commented.

"Did you not just see the news?" Another girl with fiery red hair responded incredulously. "It's all over the headlines. That Crimson guy, or whatever his name is, has been on a rampage. He attacked trainers in multiple towns with his powerful Humanoid Infernape Pokeman and even managed to steal a significant number of other people's Pokemon."

"It seems so brutal," The third girl with green hair said with a shudder. "They say he mercilessly killed many of the trainers he stole from, and the survivors only survived because they were lucky."

As they continued their conversation, they suddenly noticed a Pokemon that looks like a girl with green hair, green legs, and red discs on her head watching the TV as it blared out: "Kirlia~!"

"... "

The three trainers were baffled when they saw the girl. They were just talking about a Pokeman and one really appeared here?!

"Hey, did the three of you just talk about Crimson? And you said that he has a humanoid Infernape?" Rogue asked as he approached the three as he came forth and pulled Kirlia behind him, allowing Dawn to grab a hold of Kirlia's hand.

"B-before that... Can we ask if Kirlia is a Pokeman? A humanoid Pokemon!?" The green-haired girl couldn't help but ask hesitantly.

Red and Blue haired girl also looked at Rogue, waiting for him to answer their question.

"It is. I caught it in the wild just now," Rogue replied, not willing to tell them about the Pokeman Serum. Then, he looked at them waiting for the answer to his question.

"You did!?!" The fiery red-haired girl practically jumped with excitement, pushing her green-haired friend aside. "Where did you find it?!"

Rogue's expression remained unchanged as he repeated his demand. "Tell me what I want to know first." He crossed his arms over his chest, a clear indication that he wouldn't share his information unless they gave him what he wanted.

"Sorry about that," The blue haired girl came and pushed her hot tempered friend away. "We did just talk about Crimson. What would you like to know?"

Rogue took a deep breath and began, "I want you to confirm if this Crimson person really does have a humanoid Infernape Pokemon. And I'd also like to know any other information that you have on him, such as rumors and last seen location."

The blue-haired girl nodded, understanding Rogue's demand. "Yes, it's true that Crimson has a humanoid Infernape. This has already been confirmed by the authorities, and a bounty has been set on Crimson," she confirmed.

"As for other information, there are rumors that he is searching for other humanoid Pokemon so that his God's Society or whatever can research it. And his last known location was in the town of Celadon, where he attacked trainers and stole their Pokemon."

"I see!" Rogue's eyes lit up with excitement as he finally confirmed that this was indeed the Crimson he had been searching for. The thought of finally coming face to face with that bastard and taking revenge flashed through his mind.

In the past, he had only a near death Lopunny and a Fennekin at his side. They were hardly a match for the Charizard and Houndoom that Crimson had.

But now... he has a full health Lopunny and Honedge. And then there was Kirlia, still untrained but with potential to become a formidable Pokémon in her own right.

If he acquires more weapons like the Chancla and Hand Grenade, he'll have the power to obliterate Crimson even if he didn't have his Pokemons. The explosive force of these devices will be enough to end any resistance from his opponent.

In a burst of fiery determination, the red-haired girl returned to the scene, forcefully pushing the water girl out of her way. "We've answered your question," she declared, her voice dripping with frustration. "Now it's your turn. Where did you obtain your Pokeman!?"

Since Rogue got what he wanted, he pointed at where he caught Kirlia and Lopunny and said: "I caught Kirlia deep inside of Myrtle Forest," he boasted, a grin spreading across his face. "You can venture in and attempt to find one for yourself."

"Alright, LETS GOOO!!!" Excitement bubbling within her, the fiery red-haired girl wasted no time in grabbing her two companions and racing towards the dense Myrtle Forest without any hesitation. Scared that Crimson will come attack them? No way! They aren't that weak!

"Hah... what a funny trio," Rogue chuckled. What he said wasn't particularly false. He did catch both Kirlia and Lopunny in Myrtle Forest. It's just that Kirlia was artificial, and he doesn't know if any other Pokeman does exist in the forest.

He hoped that the trio could find Pokemans, however. If they did, he would have more ways of obtaining Pokeman Serums.

"Rogue, I can see the fire burning in your eyes. Are you ready to seek retribution against Crimson?" Dawn questioned with a curious gaze, her eyes flickering over to her boyfriend.

"Of course! How can someone who attacked you and I run away scott free? We're going to go murder his Pokemons and get ours back!" Rogue declared as he stared into the eyes of Dawn. He was petty like that. He had to make Crimson live in hell. Just like what he'll do to Nurse Joy if he sees her again.

Plus, he can also get to eat some Infernape meat and possibly get another Pokeman serum that way.

-x-X-x-

After gathering their belongings, Rogue and Dawn prepared to leave for the next town. Their destination was Celadon, which was located a few towns over.

But as Rogue and Dawn set off, a tiny figure trailed behind them. Its sunny yellow fur was accented by black tufts on its ears, tail, and neck. Two bright red dots adorned its cheeks, crackling with the power of electricity.

The Pokemon's small paws patterned quietly against the ground as it stealthily followed Rogue and Dawn into the unknown.

And this Pokemon was none other than Pichu - a tiny but fiercely determined electric-type Pokemon.

For days on end, it had tracked Rogue through dense forests and over treacherous terrain until finally arriving at this edge of Myrtle Forest where it spied on Rogue as he turned Kirlia into a Pokeman!

It was so shocked at that time that it almost exposed itself with a little shout.

But anyways, that wasn't important!

What's important is its reason for finding Rogue!

Why did it need to find him? What was the reason? The answer was clear - revenge. Rogue had taken everything from it. He had brutally killed its mother and devoured her right before its eyes.

Rogue ate her mom! He killed her mom so viciously and ate its mom right in front of it!

After being freed and being taunted by Rogue, Pichu has struggled to sleep, haunted by the traumatic experience it endured. Every time it closes its eyes, the horrifying images from that day resurface.

The memories would flood back to Pichu, igniting a fire of anger within. It could still hear its mom scream out 'Pikachuu!!', and it could feel her warm blood splatter on its face. It would not rest until it avenged her death and made Rogue pay for his heinous crime. Revenge was the only thing driving it forward in this quest for justice.

But as much as it hated Rogue, Pichu knew it couldn't take him on alone. It needed to find allies - partners who would help it defeat Rogue and get revenge for its mother's death.

For now, Pichu could only cower in the shadows, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike. Its tiny body quivered with anticipation and rage at the mere thought of facing Rogue again.

It dreamed of the day when it could triumphantly stand over Rogue, its foot planted firmly on his chest as it spat on his twisted face, finally getting the revenge it so desperately craved.

"Be patient, Pichu. Be Patient and wait for when the time is right!" Pichu cheered for itself and continued to follow Rogue and Dawn with its little legs.

-x-X-x-

Time seemed to pass slowly as Rogue and Dawn journeyed around Myrtle Forest, walking on the edge towards the next town, Paniola Town. Their current destination goal, of course, is Celadon, but the travel time alone would take another two weeks. And this is without stopping in the towns in between.

Currently, though, Rogue and Dawn were only a day away from Paniola Town.

As they traveled, they only encountered a few new Pokemon due to sticking to the outskirts of Myrtle forest.

The first four were unremarkable, mere basic evolutions like a Weedle. But then, luck was on their side as they stumbled upon a majestic Gogoat, the final evolution of a Skiddo.

Surprisingly, it seemed to welcome them with open arms (or rather, hooves). Dawn couldn't resist reaching out to gently pat its furry head, feeling the warmth and friendliness emanating from this Pokemon.

However, Dawn didn't want to catch it, so Rogue brought out his trusty Chancla and gave the Gogoat a sharp slap on the head to paralyze it before summoning his Honedge and drove the blade Pokemon into its neck.

Dawn couldn't help but feel bad for the nice Pokemon, but she knew that this was just one of many sacrifices they would have to make on their journey. She knew that they would kill many more Pokemons in the future.

With this said, though, Rogue gained 3 System Pokeballs and 2 Potions. The most notable item was the Boots of Swiftness that he gained from Gogoat the Boots of Swiftness. He also stored the rest of the Gogoat corpse into the System storage since it could be sold for money.

[Boots of Swiftness - Increases the user's movement speed by 60% and slow resistance by 25%.]

It has an all white exterior with two large feathers on its sides. Rogue recalled this to be from a certain game he used to play...

As they prepared to continue their journey along the dirt path that marked the border of Myrtle Forest, Rogue pulled out his recently acquired Boots of Swiftness and slipped them onto his feet. He took a few steps back and forth, testing their quickness.

To his astonishment, he could feel the ground rush beneath his feet, propelling him forward at least 60% faster than his usual speed.

Dawn found it odd that Rogue's pace had suddenly picked up with just some new boots, but she didn't question it. She had made her stance clear on not wanting to know his secrets and was sticking to it. However, she couldn't help but wonder and come up with her own theories.

...

Two figures strolled side by side on the outskirts of the forest, enveloped by the vibrant foliage on either side - one side a sprawling plain, the other the dense and mysterious forest.

The air was thick with the smell of earth and leaves, and a chorus of Pokemon birdsong echoed through the trees. Despite the heat, there was a sense of tranquility in this secluded dirt road, as if they were in their own little pocket of paradise.

"Wow, you're so naughty, Rogue!" Dawn said as her breast was groped by Rogue.

Dawn let out a soft giggle as she felt Rogue's hand slide over her curves, teasing and exploring every inch of her body.

"I can't resist," Rogue whispered huskily, his warm hand lightly squeezing and teasing Dawn's chest. "Your breast feels so incredible in my hand."

With a playful smirk, he closed his hand around the soft mound, feeling it jiggle against his skin. Dawn couldn't help but let out a small gasp, her body responding eagerly to his touch. It was like electricity running through her veins, igniting every nerve and sending shivers down her spine.

Dawn felt her cheeks flush as Rogue continued to tease and play with her breast.

With a bold move, Dawn reached up and wrapped her arm around Rogue's neck, pulling him closer to her. Shen then told him: "Stop teasing me, buddy! You know I'm going to torture that meat rod of yours later if you keep teasing me."

Rogue chuckled and leaned in closer, their lips almost touching. "I don't mind a little torture," he whispered, his warm breath tickling Dawn's skin.

Their playful banter quickly turned into heated kisses as they kept walking.

But before things could escalate any further, there was a deafening booming explosion that shook Myrtle Forest. The ground trembled beneath them as a body was violently launched through the air from the forest, tumbling and crashing to the dirt road with a resounding thud.

The body rolled on the ground a few times before getting up amidst the smokescreen of dust that had risen up and rang out at the forest in a furious cry: "You filthy bastards! Return my Pokemon to me!" The sound echoed through the trees, filled with rage and desperation.

"Ehh?" Rogue uttered in bafflement because he recognized the person ahead of them.

Her short orange hair, with a playful ponytail on one side, bounced as she moved. Her outfit screamed familiarity, from the tight denim shorts to the vibrant yellow shirt and bold red straps. He couldn't believe his eyes, it was her.

It was Misty.

He felt that at this rate, he's going to see all of the Pokemon universe cast if he continues his Pokemon journey.

But what is she doing here? Rogue wondered and turned his attention to the forest where Misty was looking at.

There, a figure with long red hair jumped out and began chanting: "Prepare for trouble!"

And then another figure with short purple hair also jumped out and added: "And make it double."

"To protect..."

Rogue's expression twisted in disgust as he saw who had appeared. "Fuck, vegans." he cursed under his breath, recognizing the group of people approaching. They were clad in all white with a red R, and their aura carried signs with messages of Pokemon rights and veganism.

"Vegans? Rogue, are you saying these people are the ones who don't dare eat Pokemon? Those kinds of vegans?" Dawn asked in a whispering tone, watching the theater play unfold before her.

"Yes, they're part of a group called Team Rocket," Rogue explained, his voice dripping with disdain. "They go around yapping about how everyone should become vegans."

"What a group of crooks." Dawn also looked down at the group before them.

"To protect the world from devastation! To unite all peoples within our nation! To denounce the evils of truth and love!" Team Rocket continued their chant.

Misty's fists clenched and her face turned red with anger as she watched Team Rocket prance about, spouting their ridiculous lines.

"What is wrong with you people?" Misty growled, her voice shaking with rage. "You sneak attacked me and stole all of my Pokemon. And now you're here, mocking me and singing some stupid song? Give me back my Pokemon!"

Team Rocket ignored Misty and continued: "To extend our reach to the stars above! Jessie! James! Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light! Surrender now, or prepare to fight!"

"Meowth! That's right!"

"Chewubii~"

The Cherubi that Rogue tried to kill before also chimed in into Team Rocket's Motto line...

"Give me back my Pokemon!" Misty yelled again, her voice shaking with rage. She clenched her fists, the anger coursing through her body.

Jessie and James couldn't contain their laughter at Misty's outburst, clearly amused by her fiery spirit. "Oh please," Jessie sneered with a mocking tone. "Who do you think you are? A mere non-vegan like you doesn't deserve to have such delicate Pokemon."

Their wide eyes had witnessed Misty's impressive display of skill as she captured the beautiful, feathered Farfetch'd. They knew that the graceful bird was often sought after for its succulent meat, praised as one of the most delectable Pokemon in the world. The thought of it being served on a dinner table made their stomachs churn.

In a bold and merciless move, they swooped in and saved the Farfetch'd from its fate, stealing it along with all of the girl's other prized Pokemon without a second thought. The thrill of adding such rare creatures to their collection consumed them.

Luckily, their little Cherubi seemed to have learned Solar Beam, and that amazing move had helped them succeed in their Pokemon stealing action.

But as they gloated about their successful heist, they failed to notice the figure approaching with a sword clutched tightly in his hand.

Tssssshhh~

Rogue slid in between Team Rocket with an evil smirk on his face.

"We meet again, vegans!" His words dripped with malice as he licked his lips and fixed his gaze on Cherubi and Meowth.

"You again!" Jessie spat out, her eyes narrowing as she recognized the sword-wielding boy who had killed her beloved Ekans. "What do you want?"

"Let's not beat around the bush," Rogue sneered, his voice dripping with disdain. "I want the Pokemon and the girl!" His grip tightened on the hilt of his Honedge as he stared down at his enemies.

"Go away, you twerp! Shoo!" Meowth didn't like Rogue at all, so he bent down and scooped up a handful of soil, flinging it at Rogue in frustration. The clumps of dirt tumbled through the air, falling just short of their target but sending a clear message to stay away.

Misty's heart raced as the boy bravely stepped in front of her, shielding her from the menacing goons who had stolen her Pokemon. The sound of her pounding heart echoed in her ears, and she couldn't help but feel like a damsel in distress who had been unexpectedly rescued by a knight in shining armor.

"Let's cut the crap and just attack him! He killed Koffing!" James exclaimed, overcome with a mix of sorrow and rage over the loss of his beloved Pokemon at the hands of this Pokemon sword- wielding menace.

"Chrubi, use Solar Beam!!" With a commanding tone, James directed his cherry-colored Pokemon, Chrubi, to unleash its powerful Solar Beam attack.

The rays of the sun seemed to gather and concentrate within Chrubi's body, creating a dazzling display of light and energy.

The only drawback of this move is that it takes time to charge!

"Let me help you speed it up!" A sly grin stretched across Rogue's face as he summoned a flashbang from his System Storage with a swift motion. He deftly pulled the pin with his teeth, determined to finally defeat Team Rocket.

His sights were set on capturing Meowth and possibly even Cherubi this time around. Jessie was just the final cherry on top, and he couldn't wait to claim his victory over the notorious vegans.

In a blur of motion, Rogue expertly hurled his Flashbang towards Team Rocket with precision and accuracy. He then propelled himself out of Cherubi's Solar Beam trajectory before closing his eyes. And with lightning speed, he snatched Lopunny's Pokeball, ready to unleash it after the blinding flash from the bomb.

"What's this-" Team Rocket was wondering what was just thrown at them, but their senses were suddenly assaulted by a loud DING!!! Before they could even process what was happening, a blinding flash of pure white engulfed their vision.

The sound of the flashbang reached over 170 decibels, temporarily deafening them and leaving them disoriented in the bright whiteness.

"Urgh!!" Misty was also unprepared and was blinded by the sudden burst of light.

Dawn was already warned by Rogue, so she already had her eyes closed. She even had her Piplup at hand, ready to help at a moment's notice.

"Cherubi!!" The red cherry Pokemon quickly absorbed the sudden burst of Photons from the Flashbang, but the damage was already done.

However, thanks to the absorption, Cherubi was able to release the Solar Beam!

Sadly, it was also blinded and sent the blast to the location of Rogue's previous location.... But this shot didn't hit him.

However, it flew towards Misty who was still standing still!

With a deafening boom, Misty was violently thrown through the air and tumbled across the small plains behind her. Blades of grass whipped against her skin like daggers as she rolled uncontrollably, unable to gain her bearings in the dizzying chaos.

The world spun around her in a blur of green and blue, and she could feel the ground shaking beneath her as another explosion rocked the land. Gravity seemed to have no hold on her fragile body as it careened through the air, at the mercy of unseen forces. At that moment, all she could do was close her eyes and pray for the best because... she felt her consciousness slipping into a deep sleep.

Back to Team Rocket's side, they stumbled and grasped at each other. As masters of escaping, they knew that they had to run right now because they were in a bad position, so James reached out for Cherubi and dipped. Jessie and Meowth also attempted to do the same before attempting to escape.

In the brief moment of blindness, Rogue unleashed Lopunny's Pokeball.

As Lopunny leaped out of its ball, its fluffy fur stood on end and its furry arms were raised in a playful stance.

Rogue's eyes fluttered open as he gave the command, "Lopunny, attack Meowth and don't let it get away!"

Despite closing his eyes in time to avoid the full force of the blast, Rogue's vision was still a bit hazy due to the fact that he was a little too close to the detonation location.

But even with the haziness, Rogue could see the thick ass of the red hair girl he wanted to fuck, and he made chase after her, determined not to let her slip away again. With his Boots of Swiftness, his speed was much faster than the thick assed girl, and he closed in on her!

With each step, Rogue could feel his heart race faster and faster as he closed in on Jessie. His vision, which had been blurred and fuzzy only moments before, was now sharpening with each step, allowing him to see the path ahead with increasing clarity.

And unaffected by the high decibel of the flashbang, he could hear her panting and see her long red hair whipping behind her as she ran for dear life. He grinned widely, imagining all the things he would do to that voluptuous body once he finally caught up with her.

On the other hand, Lopunny bounced to Meowth who was desperately trying to escape with Jessie and James. With a playful smirk, Lopunny pounced towards the small cat Pokemon, using its agility and speed to easily catch up to it.

With its foot outstretched in a graceful arch, Lopunny gracefully sent a precise kick down towards the unsuspecting Meowth.

The impact was fierce and deliberate, causing the poor feline to be thrown forward and crash onto the hard ground with a resounding thud.

As he tumbled through the air, Meowth desperately tried to regain his footing, but it was too late. He landed on his stomach with a pained groan, his fur ruffled and disheveled from the impact.

"Help me, Jessie!! James!!" Meowth cried out, but it landed onto the temporary deaf ears of his teammates.

Despite Meowth's cries for help, Jessie and James were too preoccupied with their own escape to pay any attention to him. They ran as fast as they could, not even trying to look back to see if their Pokemon was following because they couldn't see!

Rogue saw this and laughed inwardly.

It was almost comical to see this usually agile and nimble Pokemon now sprawled out helplessly on the ground. But perhaps it was because he had been standing on two feet, forgetting to utilize his front paws for balance, that caused him to lose his grace and land in such an undignified manner.

Either way, Lopunny stood triumphant over her fallen opponent, her poise and elegance remained as she continued to give continuous kicks onto Meowth to restrain him.

Like a predator honing in on its prey, Rogue lunged forward with his Honedge sword. The glint of the blade caught the sunlight as he aimed for Jessie's thigh, hoping to inflict injury and disable her. His eyes burned with malice, not caring about the harm he could cause to his opponent. For him, it was just another step towards achieving his goals.

As their senses started to return, Jessie and James turned to see Rogue charging at them with a twisted, malevolent expression. They could feel a shiver run down their spines as they realized the true nature of their enemy. It was a face that oozed with evil and promised nothing but destruction.

This was the thing they despised as devout vegans - these ruthless, carnivorous beasts who showed no mercy in their hunt for prey.

They could also now somewhat hear Meowth's cry for help, but they couldn't do anything because they're also in a bad position!

"Keep running, Jessie!!" James cried out as he turned around to kick Honedge with his foot!

*Kanng!!*

Honedge was kicked away from Jessie's thigh, but this didn't stop Rogue.

Instead of holding onto Honedge, he let the sword Pokemon go free and summoned the Diamond Pickaxe onto his other hand after storing Lopunny's Pokeball away.

With determination in his eyes, Rogue swung the pickaxe towards James from above, aiming for his right shoulder with all his might.

It was clear that Rogue meant business and would stop at nothing to defeat his opponent.

"Noo, James!!" Jessie's eyes finally cleared, and she watched with wide, fearful eyes as the intense situation unfolded behind her. Her heart raced in her chest, her body trembling with fear.

She knew that the attack would be a lethal one if it hits James! She didn't know what she would do if James was harmed!

Cherubi also snapped back to reality, but it was powerless at this moment. Its Solar Beam attack took too long to charge up and they were running out of time.

As Rogue's Diamond Pickaxe slowly descended towards James' shoulder, every second felt like an eternity. The air was thick with tension as they all braced for the impact that could change everything in an instant.

But just as all seemed lost, a small voice pierced the chaos and a sudden bolt of lightning shot down towards Rogue!

The sound of electricity crackled through the air, like a storm brewing in an instant. It was then that a flash of yellow appeared from behind a nearby bush - a small rat-like creature with bright red cheeks.

With a determined cry of "Pichuuu!" The Pokemon had unleashed a powerful bolt of electricity towards Rogue.

Knowing that its electric powers were not yet fully developed, the little Pokemon still had confidence in its ability to give Rogue quite the shock. The sound of Ziiii!!!!! filled the air as the bolt surged forward.

Rogue was shocked by the sneak attack, quite literally and figuratively. He didn't expect a third party to appear!

But it was too late to do anything because his muscles became tense, and his muscles immediately tensed up and he became paralyzed for a brief moment.

He fell from his lunge and also dropped his Diamond Pickaxe onto the ground.

Honedge realized what was happening and immediately flew back in to block Jessie and James from counter attacking. It also warned the third party from attacking its trainer.

"Pichu! Pichu!" The little yellow rat waved its little paws at Jessie and James and urged them to quickly flee from the demon.

James hesitated for a moment, torn between staying to help Meowth or to run...

But Jessie didn't hesitate. She knew that their safety was more important than helping Meowth at the moment. She pulled Jame's hand and quickly ran towards Pichu.

Meanwhile, Cherubi began to charge its Solar Beam again, absorbing the photons that were coming through the forest. It now has time to charge up, and it would blast Rogue when given the chance.

"God damn," Rogue cursed as he cracked his neck as he became free from the paralyzation. He then summoned the grenade from his system storage and stared at the running figures of Jessie, James, Chrubi, and Pichu.

He was very tempted to throw it because he knew that it was a bad idea to chase when Solar Beam is already being charged. However, he could still take them down with the hand grenade!

But...

He didn't throw it.

The loss was just too huge for him. The hand grenade is one of his current trump cards, and he wanted to save it.

Even if he throws it and kills all of them, he won't gain much - only the bodies of the damned Pichu, Cheribi, and also perhaps the mutilated body of Jessie.

Hence, he just held it and gritted his teeth, acknowledging his loss.

Rogue came back to Meowth after letting the other Team Rocket members escape.

Meowth, the pheline cat Pokemon, was currently lying on the ground, unable to move. Lopunny stood next to it, waiting for Rogue's next instructions.

"Eahh!! You monstrous fiend! Let me go! Let me go!" Meowth howled in agony, its once pristine face now black and blue. It desperately tried to move its front paws to retaliate against Rogue, but they were battered and broken by the merciless kicks and stomps of Lopunny.

"Shut it, you fucking cat," Rogue glared down at Meowth, who cowered beneath him. His judgemental stare pierced through the cat's soul as he raised his foot, adorned with Boots of Swiftness, and stomped down on its chest with a sickening thud.

Meowth's shrill voice let out a desperate cry as the force of Rogue's boots caused it to cackle uncontrollably. It struggled to speak, asking in a trembling voice, "W-why are you doing this?"

A wicked grin spread across Rogue's face as he responded, "I recall that you're not captured, correct?" He summoned a System Pokeball in his hand before continuing, "I'm going to capture you first before preparing some delicious Meowth soup." The thought of tasting the creature's flesh made his mouth water in anticipation.

Meowth's eyes widened in fear as he realized what was about to happen. He struggled to get away, but his injuries prevented any real movement. "No, no! You can't do this! I-I'm a member of Team Rocket, you can't just capture me!" he pleaded desperately.

"In your dreams," Rogue only sneered in response, his cold eyes glinting with triumph. With a menacing chuckle, he lifted the Pokeball high above Meowth's head before dropping it right onto its face.

"Ugakk!" Meowth cried out in agony as the Pokeball landed on its already wounded face. The impact left him seeing stars and gasping for air.

And then it happened - the Pokeball opened with a hiss, releasing a bright flash of red light that engulfed Meowth before pulling it inside.

Once absorbed, the Pokeball floats weightlessly for a moment before finally landing on the ground with a soft thud.

As soon as it touched the ground, the Pokeball seemed to come alive. Its smooth surface began to pulsate and sway, almost like a beating heart.

It twitched once...

And then again...

Rogue was fully expecting to see Meowth appear within its confines any second now. After all, the cat had been beaten so badly by Lopunny - surely it would have no choice but to succumb to the Pokeball's power and become his loyal companion.

But the unexpected happened.

On the third twitch, the Pokeball opened and Meowth bursted out of the Pokeball!

"Please don't do this! I can feel something bad in the Pokeball!" Meowth groaned in pain as it appeared on the ground. It looked at Rogue with pleading eyes, begging to not be captured.

"Why did you have to break free and ruin my chance of capturing you?! You even wasted one of my Pokeballs!" Rogue's expression twisted into a frown as he glared down at the defiant Meowth.

"Pweas-!"

Meowth tried to plead once more for mercy, but before it could get the words out, Rogue brought out a slipper from who knew where and raised it above his head.

With an unfazed look, Rogue swung the slipper down with brutal force onto Meowth's head, silencing its cries for help. His hypothesis for the failure of Meowth's capture is that he hadn't beaten it up enough, so he decided to whack it a few times with the Chancla to discipline it before trying again.

*WHACK!*

*WHACK!*

*WHACK!*

Meowth's pained expression contorted into a grotesque mask as Rogue mercilessly slapped him again and again. His vibrant spirit drained away, replaced by a numb, almost lifeless state.

The scent of sweat and dirt filled the air, mixed with the faint metallic smell of blood as Meowth's nose was struck by the slipper.

As the abuse continued, Meowth questioned his foolish decision to challenge this tyrant, regretting every moment of defiance as it was beaten into submission. It couldn't even move its mouth to speak now... and for some reason, it didn't feel like fighting back anymore.

Being slapped by the slipper is too painful!

Rogue crouched down and looked Meowth in the eye before threatening Meowth.

"If you don't stay in the Pokeball, I'm going to dig your eyeballs out," Rogue said in a low voice as he brought out another System Pokeball.

"This fiend is the worst of them all!" Meowth uttered inwardly in fear as Rogue punched it with the Pokeball.

Meowth was once again absorbed into the Pokeball and the Pokeball began to shake.

One shake... followed by another... and then a third.

Then a satisfying thud echoed through the air, signaling to Rogue that his capture was a success.

A wide, toothy grin spread across Rogue's face as he watched his prey coming to his hand. He had been wanting to have some talking Meowth meat, and he finally now has it. His mouth couldn't help but drool as it wondered how the Meowth meat is going to taste like.

His plans were already forming for later - how to prepare the meat, what spices to use, and how satisfying it would be to finally have a talking Meowth on his plate.

He also wondered what kind of reward he's going to get from eating a talking Meowth. Perhaps a talking serum? Rogue couldn't wait.

"Rogue, over here!" Dawn's voice pierced through the air and snapped Rogue out of his thoughts.

He had been so lost in contemplation that he had completely forgotten about the girls. But now, with Dawn's urgent call, he turned around and made his way towards her with Lopunny at his side.

As he approached, he saw Dawn sitting next to Misty, who lay unconscious on the ground, her eyes closed. Her orange hair was disheveled and her clothes were torn slightly from the battle they had just endured. Her skin was also cut by bits and pieces of grass while dirt covered her body.

"What happened?" Rogue asked.

"She was hit by Cherubi's Solar Beam and became unconscious," Dawn said and looked up at Rogue, "Do you think she's going to wake up soon?"

Rogue assesses Misty's condition carefully before responding: "She might be out for a while. Why do you ask?"

Dawn's lips twisted into a sly grin as she answered, "Why else? I wanted you to have a little fun." With a teasing flick of her fingers, she lifted up Misty's shirt, revealing the curve of her breast and the taut peaks of her nipples. The faint scent of lavender and sweat wafted up from Misty's skin
