ash slowly took back the Metapod that could not fight, and said softly to the Poké Ball:
"Thank you, Metapod. You are one step closer to evolving into the legendary Rayquaza."
Then he raised his head, looked at the staryu with a serious look.
This is a formidable opponent.
Now that Pikachu was paddling, he could only send out a Pokémon that was fast enough to avoid being knocked over by the opponent's powerful water cannon.
Thinking of this, ash suddenly reacted.
I only have one left, why am I agonizing over this in the void?!
So ash threw out a Poké Ball and shouted:
"It's decided to be you, tool bird!"
The Pidgeotto emerges from the red light, preparing to spread its wings and fly, chirping loudly.
"Than yelling. yelling?"
Suddenly, he turned his head 120 degrees like Owloch and looked at his trainer with a confused look on his face.
What did you call yourself just now?
It doesn't seem like a particularly polite name.
ash's heart suddenly skipped a beat and he covered his mouth.
How come I accidentally said what was in my heart? I can only lie with my eyes open:
"You heard it wrong, I called the mighty Pidgeotto"
"Beep. Data updated."
At this moment, the illustrated book in his pocket suddenly rang automatically, interrupting Xiaozhi's explanation.
The voice seemed a little cold and harsh.
"Pipi Bird, nickname: Tool Bird."
One man, one bird: "."
The scene fell into an awkward situation for a moment.
"Boom!"
A thick blue jet of water suddenly shot out, stopping the Pokémon from killing its master that was about to happen.
Thanks to the naturally sharp eyesight of bird Pokémon, Pidgeotto was able to barely avoid this powerful water cannon.
"hateful!"
The sneak attack failed, which made Misty feel very sorry, but it made Satoshi on the side secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
No matter how intense the internal conflicts become, as long as a common external enemy appears, even the murderer of your father will stop fighting and unite against the outside world.
This powerful gem starfish is obviously such a creature.
So ash quickly gave another reassurance shot.
"Pidgeotto, I'll help you change your nickname after the game. Believe me, this is the promise the Pokémon Master made to you!"
Anyway, he is in the future, not now.
Hearing this, Pidgeotto nodded, reluctantly accepting the proposal.
The battle begins!
"staryu, use Water Gun!"
misty launched an attack again.
After all, with the speed of the Pidgeot, and the poor hit rate of the water cannon, it would be meaningless if it couldn't hit the target even if the power was great.
What's more, water cannon is a powerful move and consumes a lot of energy.
But as long as the water gun can hit the Pidgeotto, soaking its wing feathers and greatly reducing its speed, it will become a living target for the water cannon.
"Sizzle!"
"Sizzle!"
The jewel star sprayed water with the water gun frantically, but each shot was avoided by the Pidgeotto by twisting and turning, and not a single splash of water got on its feathers.
"Better yell!"
It was unknown when the Pidgeotto had already appeared right in front of the staryu, and the two were less than two meters apart.
"staryu, use water."
Before misty finished her words, ash spoke first:
"Pidgeotto, use gust!"
The Pidgeotto flapped its wings, and the storm that blew up at close range blew the staryu away before it could even use any skills, sending it flying backwards.
Seeing this, misty suddenly came up with a plan and instructed: "staryu, use rapid spin towards the wall!"
The staryu straightened itself up in mid-air, its body spinning wildly, and with the help of the reaction force of the wall, it actually catapulted towards the Pidgeot.
"jump up!"
The Pidgeotto was hit head-on and immediately flapped its wings to the side to adjust its flying posture.
misty took advantage of the situation and shouted, "staryu, keep spinning at high speed!"
The Gem Starfish rushed straight to the wall and used the reaction force to bounce towards Pidgeotto again.
ash was not afraid to be careless: "Pidgeotto, fly higher!"
"Better yell!"
The Pidgeotto bird flapped its wings vigorously and raised its body, narrowly avoiding the high-speed spin.
However, the next jewel starfish took advantage of the surrounding area and kept rebounding and spinning at high speed, its altitude also increasing, constantly approaching the target.
The situation suddenly became tense, and Pidgeot became a little panicked.

However, after several rounds, Xiaozhi discovered a highlight.
He stared at the trajectory of the Gem Starfish, and when its parabolic trajectory reached its maximum height, he suddenly shouted:
"Now, use your wings to attack!"
The Pidgeotto suddenly increased its altitude, sticking to the edge to avoid the rapid spin. One side of its wings was covered with a layer of white light, and then it flapped downwards suddenly.
The staryu was lying horizontally and spinning, but the gem in the center had no defense at all and was hit directly.
"Bang!"
I'll beat you to death, you super water!
Under the attack of the wings, the gem starfish suddenly fell vertically from the sky. Because it was a gem that was attacked, the attack was enough to destroy it.
Xiaoxia couldn't help but be secretly surprised. She didn't expect that Xiaozhi was also an old geometer.
"Gem Starfish, take this opportunity to dive into the water!"
Taking advantage of this backward movement, the gem starfish dived directly into the pool water and disappeared.
"Use the water gun while moving!"
This is the Hualan Gym, and shooting water guns in the water is its advantage!
"Damn, is it so difficult?"
The situation once again turned into a jewel starfish hiding underwater, constantly jumping out to fire water guns.
After taking a dip, he did not get greedy and dived into the water again, changing his position to continue taking a dip.
Even an experienced player couldn't stand being hit by all kinds of attacks. The exhausted Pidgeotto was about to be hit in the face, but at this moment, ash suddenly flipped his hat and shouted:
"Pidgeot, use your wings to attack the water!"
Upon hearing this, the Pidgeotto's body trembled, and the raptor's fighting spirit was extremely high.
It flapped its wings and rushed to half a meter above the water surface. Then it slapped the water surface with its wings that were glowing white.
Clang bang! !
The terrifying force caused the pool and the entire Cerulean Gym to tremble violently.
The water waves spread out like ripples, and the staryu hidden on the side of the pool couldn't help but tremble, and its body was suddenly shaken out of the water.
ash's eyes lit up and he roared loudly:
"Final attack! Pidgeotto, use quick attack!"
Seeing this, misty's eyes became brighter than his.
Although she didn't know that ash would force it out in such a brute force manner, it was enough to know that his finishing move would be a quick attack.
She waved her finger and said, "staryu, use the water cannon on the front!!"
She waited for the opponent to approach her actively before attacking. She had learned this move from the Metapod from the previous battle.
"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!"
A thick blue water column was launched, even breaking the vacuum of the surrounding water pool along the way, and rushed towards the attacking Pidgeot with tremendous force.
There is no way Pidgeotto can block this move!
"I win this one!"
misty smiled proudly.
Even brock, who was watching from the sidelines, shook his head and narrowed his eyes.
The water cannon can't be blocked by a quick attack, not even by ash.
"Better shout!"
A sudden cry woke everyone up, and they saw that the powerful water cannon successfully hit the Pidgeot, but there was no sign of collision, as if it had penetrated through it.
"What's going on!?"
misty was horrified.
When she came to her senses, she discovered that the Pidgeotto had appeared right below the water column at some point, and was still sprinting along the edge, with a creepy white light flashing from its beak.
What was pierced by the water cannon was just an afterimage.
It had already arrived in front of the Gem Starfish, and the two were less than one meter apart.
Whoosh, bang!
It hit with a flash of lightning!
The powerful attack finally overwhelmed the gem starfish, and its body flew backwards with a long splash of water.
And when the splash fell again, it was completely unable to fight.
"staryu is incapable of fighting, and Pidgeotto wins!"
"Contestant ash wins this competition!"
misty elder sister shouted in a loud voice, as if she was the winner.
Afterwards.
ash was stunned for several seconds. In fact, he didn't expect that misty had another trick up her sleeve.
As for how the Pidgeotto bird avoided the water cannon in the end, he didn't know.
But he was a thick-skinned man who knew that as long as he won, that was all that mattered.
Thinking of this, he jumped directly from the contestant seat to the float in the pool with a few quick steps, jumped several steps, and hugged the Pidgeot affectionately.
"Better yell!"
Pidgeotto was also very happy. It flapped its wings and patted Xiaozhi's head, as if reminding him of something.
"I understand, I understand. Brock has already arranged the best rations. I'll take you to a full meal when we go to the Pokémon Center later!"
Xiaozhi put it back into the Poké Ball with a look of joy.
Pidgeotto: 0-0?
Under the red light of the Poké Ball, Pidgeotto's face looked a little dull.
My stupid trainer, have you forgotten something
?
The next moment, it entered the Poké Ball without saying a word.
