The day after bidding farewell to Casey, Ash and his group passed through a forest. Soon, they discovered something unusual here.
"What's going on? Why did it suddenly become so depressed?"
"It was obviously a beautiful green forest just now?"
Ash closed his eyes and spread the power of the Aura. As expected, only this area became very depressed and all the trees withered.
Soon, he noticed something was wrong.
"This way!"
Ash opened his eyes, told the two of them and hurried over.
It was a tall and sturdy tree, big enough for five or six people to hug together, and several Heracross could easily seen there.
They should be sucking sap.
"Ah, what are they? Are they all insects?"
Misty is most afraid of bugs. It was because of her that the two of them just traveled through the Viridian Forest where Ash caught Catterpie.
"That's Heracross, Misty, a crustacean Bug Type Pokémon. It's not furry. Don't be afraid!" Ash comforted with a smile.
Hearing this, Misty nodded, "When you say that, it seems okay! It looks better pleasing to the eye than those others."
Heracross, a one-horned Pokémon, has a gentle personality and great strength. It is good at letting the horn penetrate into the enemy's belly and then lift the enemy up.
During the discussion between the three, several Butterfree flew over.
Not only did these Heracross allow Butterfree to eat with them, they also gave up a good spot.
"It's really gentle, that's great!" Misty is not afraid of Butterfree. Ash also had one before.
"So, how did this place become such a depressed place?" Brock began to think.
"We'll find out soon!"
As soon as Ash finished speaking, the answer appeared.
Several Pinsir appeared in the forest.
Compared with Heracross, Pinsir seems much more fierce and looks much more menacing.
Their arrival immediately scared away the Butterfree group here, and they even climbed into the canopy of the big tree, looking down at the Heracross fiercely.
"Heracross, don't just run away, think of a beat them quickly!" Misty shouted when she saw the Heracross being forced back by Pinsir.
However, the Heracross flapped its wings, and just when she thought they were about to fight back, they ran away.
Ran?!
"Now I understand, the arrival of Pinsir drove away the Heracross, so the Heracross could only suck the sap from the surrounding small trees, which caused those trees to wither!" Brock understood what happened here at once.
"Damn it, Heracross is too cowardly!" Misty looked at the Pinsirs who had occupied the big tree with a bit of non liking.
"Misty, you are wrong. A gentle personality does not mean a coward! Think of it like this, when the world is in danger, heroes will be born and rescue the world!"
Hearing Ash words, Misty couldn't help but feel a little confused.
But Pikachu noticed something, and saw one flying back from the Heracross group that left.
I saw that the Heracross was much larger and its eyes were much sharper.
"This is the hero the world needs!" Misty murmured as she looked at the Heracross.
The Heracross glanced at Ash and then flew over.
Ash smiled softly, "Pikachu!"
"Pickchu!"
Ash and Pikachu follow closely!
I saw the Heracross flapping its wings, and a white light appeared on the wings.
"Huh? This is Aerial Ace!"
Ash recognized Heracross's skills immediately.
"Pikachu, use Quick Attack!"
Flying skills restrain Bug Type. This move, combined with Pikachu's agility, quickly drove away these Pinsir.
"Not bad!"
Ash praised and looked at Heracross who landed in front of him.
"This is for you to eat!"
This is the Bug Type food he just redeemed from the system mall, and its taste is no less good than that of tree sap.
It can be seen that Heracross likes to eat this kind of things.
After driving away Pinsir, the Heracross and Butterfree came back.
Heracross next to Ash glanced at him and walked towards the depths of the forest, in the direction where Pinsir escaped.
Seeing this, Misty, who returned next to Ash, couldn't help but murmured, "Is it going to settle a score with Pinsir? It's really a 'hero'!"
"Probably not here to settle accounts!" Ash motioned for the two of them to follow, and Pikachu had already returned to his shoulder.
The three of them followed Heracross. After thinking about it carefully, Brock agreed with Ash's opinion, "Misty, think about it, why do those Pinsir come to Heracross to suck the sap?"
"Isn't it because Pinsir is a very violent Pokémon?" Misty said without thinking.
"Of course not!" Ash shook his head and said, "Although Pinsir looks fierce and has a much more fierce personality than Heracross, they also need a fixed territory, and they are definitely not Pokémon that will intentionally invade other people's territory from what the Pokédex says!"
If so. . . Brock reacted immediately, "That means there must be some reason why the Pinsir lost their territory, so they came to Heracross!"
"Brock is right."
With the Heracross clearing the way, the three of them walked smoothly, but after a while, they saw a Valley.
Heracross stopped by the Valley and looked at Ash.
Seeing this, Ash deduced, "It seems that Pinsir's territory should be opposite this Valley!"
"But, how are we going to get there?" Brock was a little troubled.
The current Charizard is unfortunately not capable of manned flying.
Ash glanced around and said, "Heracross, knock down that big tree. If it's you, you should be able to do it!"
"Heracross cross!"
Heracross's eyes also lit up, and he stepped behind the big tree.
Boom!
As if very easily, a big tree was knocked down and erected over the valley to form a single-plank bridge.
"It's really amazing!"
Ash praised Heracross and took Pikachu over first.
After initially mastering the power of the Aura, his "True Protagonist" athletic ability has been further strengthened, and it is certainly not a problem to walk on this single-plank bridge.
However, Misty, who was left last, was in trouble.
"Hey, don't walk so fast!"
Ash looked back and saw that Misty looked very scared.
After all, this tree trunk is round. If you accidentally slip and fall into the valley, a life will be lost.
Seeing this, Ash shook his head and walked back.
"Ash? What are you doing back here?"
Ash squatted down with his back to her, "Come up!"
Misty blushed heavily but still did it. 'He changed so much in so little time.' Misty snuggled up to Ash.
