Feeling Misty's breath on his neck, Ash felt a different feeling in his heart.
After crossing the Valley, Ash let go Misty and she suddenly kissed him on his cheek while Brock wasn't looking.
[Misty Picture]
Ash and his party soon arrived at Pinsir's territory.
Like the territory of Pinsir, there is this very strong tree.
They soon discovered that there was a Pinsir in the canopy of that big tree!
But if you take a closer look, you can find something unusual about the Pinsir. Not only is it more than twice the size of an ordinary Pinsir, it is also carrying a weird barrel!
A blue light flashed across Ash's eyes!
The power of the Aura swept the area.
"Team Rocket, it's you again!"
Ash shouted coldly, and the trio of Team Rocket immediately appeared in front of them.
It turned out that Team Rocket actually wants to collect the sap here and sell it as a commodity in exchange for money!
"Team Rocket, whether it's your stealing other people's Pokémon or destroying the ecological environment, I can't stand you!"
Ash took a step forward, facing the mechanical Pinsir made of special alloy, without any fear.
"Ash, the tube behind Pinsir should be full of sap, try to take it back!" Brock noticed what was behind Pinsir, and thinking of what Pinsir was doing just now, the answer should be obvious.
Ash nodded. In this case, Snorlax and Charizard would not be able to play.
Snorlax is a big eater and loves sweets.
If it were sent out, even if it could easily defeat this mechanical Pinsir, I'm afraid the sap would be eaten as its trophy.
As for Charizard, its fire will also destroy the sap.
"It's up to you, Pikachu!"
Ash decided to send the partner with the highest bonding value, Pikachu.
Looking at the pair of big horns swaying on the mechanical Pinsir, Pikachu was not afraid at all.
"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!"
The electric current wrapped around the mechanical Pinsir, making it glow like a big light bulb, but it seemed to have no effect at all.
It turns out that Team Rocket already has a lot of experience in dealing with Pikachu's powerful Thunder Attacks. This Pinsir not only stores electricity, but also Discharges!
As soon as Meowth pressed the button, Thunder Shock hit Ash and his group.
"PSs!"
The blue light formed a Barrier, protecting the group.
"What have you done!"
This scene horrified the Team Rocket trio.
However, Ash sneered and made a decision in his heart.
The current Pikachu only has electrical and normal skills, which is really disadvantageous against this mechanical Pinsir.
If he could learn Iron Tail, then the situation would be different.
However, the current training of Pikachu is not enough. Before arriving at Violet City, he will conduct special training for Pikachu and several other Pokémon.
"Heracro!"
The heroic Heracross stood up, and the insect-like Machamp suppressed the mechanical Pinsir.
"Nooo!"
The control failed and the mechanical Pinsir couldn't move at all!
Brock and Misty seized the opportunity and quickly stepped forward to snatch the tube from behind Pinsir.
"Very well, Heracross, Mega Horn!"
This is Bug Type's Mega move!
For Bug Type Pokémon with big horns and sting attack stat like Heracross, it's a mega killer move!
The Bug Type energy covered the big horn of Heracross. According to Heracross's attack habits, it inserted the big horn into the lower abdomen of the mechanical Pinsir.
"Now go!"
Under Ash's command, Heracross launched crazily and lifted the mechanical Pinsir into the air.
Then, he flapped his wings and flew up.
The big horn covered with Bug Type energy collided with the iron mechanical Pinsir!
The mechanical Pinsir was destroyed and fell in front of the Team Rocket trio.
Then, Explosion happened!
"You little no-!"
Well, those three are flying again.
Team Rocket left and the Pinsirs came back.
"It's most comfortable to live in your own territory!" Although she was afraid of Bug Type Pokémon, Misty was still happy to see this scene.
"Hera, Heracross!"
The heroic Heracross placed the tube containing the sap in front of the Pinsir, and quickly gained the support of the Pinsir.
It became the hero of both groups.
However, it had no nostalgia for this, and instead stood in front of Ash.
"Hey, what is this Heracross going to do?" Misty looked at Ash and Heracross curiously.
"It seems like it's going to have a Pokémon battle with Ash!" Brock said with a smile.
Ash smiled softly. He had already started to order Heracross to fight from just now. It can almost be predicted that the compatibility between this Heracross and him is very high!
"Come on then, Pikachu, it's you who decides!"
"Pika!"
"Pikachu, Quick Attack!"
Pikachu's speed suddenly increased and he slammed into Heracross.
And the Heracross was not afraid at all, using its big horn to catch Pikachu's Quick Attack head-on.
However, a paralyzing Spark wrapped around Heracross at the moment of contact!
Pikachu's Static Ability!
Sometimes it will paralyze the opponent it comes into contact with paralysis!
This makes Heracross slow down, and there is a certain chance that it will be unable to activate its moves!
"Good job, Pikachu! Now, Thunderbolt!"
It should be said that since traveling here, Ash felt that he was very lucky.
The static electricity ability will paralyze the opponent, but the chance is not high.
Thunderbolt hit Heracross at close range.
"Now, go, Poké Ball!"
Ash seized the opportunity and threw the Poké Ball, taking in the immobile Heracross!
Ding!
Ding!
The Poké Ball only flashed twice and then stopped.
"I caught Heracross!" Ash and Pikachu did their signature pose.
This Heracross has a kind, resolute, and brave personality, and is very compatible with Ash.
"System, check the bonding value between this Heracross and me!"
Name: Heracross (♂)
Type: Bug, Fighting
Ability: Moxie (after defeating a Pokémon in battle, the attack increases)
Bond value: 90/250
Skills: Horn Attack, Arm Thrust, Fury Attack, Mega Horn, Focus Blast, Aerial Ace, Counter, Brick Break
Seeing this bond value, Ash couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The compatibility between him and Heracross is very far away from reaching the peak. He can only try to slowly increase the bond value to allow Heracross to transform.
But in fact, there is no need to worry, he has time.
With getting along and training, the degree of compatibility will also be improved.
What surprised Ash the most was that this Heracross actually had hidden ability being Moxie.
No wonder this Heracross was able to defeat the invading Pinsir. It turned out to be that its attack was constantly improving!
Pikachu: 190/255
