Chapter 18 Insect Berry (rewrite)

...

Click.

Natsu gets nervous every time he steps on a dry branch.

Fortunately, after exploring the log forest during the day, Weedle had adapted to the high tension state of this wilderness.

In particular, this adventure was his strong request. If it weren't for his persistence, Natsu's stable character wouldn't have chosen to enter.

However.

Weedle was wrong.

Natsu made his decision after careful consideration, and no words would affect his decision, not even Weedle.

The reason why he knew it was dangerous but chose to enter.

Just because he was sure the thing that attracted Weedle wasn't simple.

If he could obtain it, perhaps it would bring great benefits to Weedle. Even if he couldn't get it, at least he wouldn't regret trying it.

He will remember the entrance, including any clumps or stalks that might be an obstacle.

On the way, they run into attacking Pokémon, and they'll also be cleared to prevent back roads from being blocked.

If he can't even clear the Pokemon on the way, there's no point going any further.

The sun slowly disappeared into the horizon.

The moon rises slowly from the east.

The faint Moonlight shrouded the forest, like a thin veil covering the forest, adding a hint of blur.

The moonlight passed through the layers of leaves, leaving a few specks on the ground.

Visibility in the forest fell instantly, and the surroundings depended on Weedle's hearing and senses.

Suddenly.

A shadow jumped out of the bushes next to him.

But not towards Natsu.

A closer look revealed that it was just Rattata.

The movement was a little confused, and it flashed not far in front of Natsu, and jumped straight into the grass on the other side.

But Natsu who saw this scene, not only didn't relax, but instead stared at the direction where Rattata came out.

The night predators appeared a little earlier.

rustling.

There was a shrill sound from the bushes, not too low.

Soon after, Ekans was slender, with a pair of yellow eyes that were very bright in the night.

It was the Pokémon that was tracking Rattata.

However, when he had just left the bushes, Ekans had sensitively discovered the whereabouts of Natsu and Weedle.

Weedle saw Ekans shudder slightly.

Intimidate Traits Characteristics.

Not giving Ekans time to react, Natsu let out a low voice.

"Weedle, String Shot."

Hers--

Weedle spat out the thread without hesitation, aiming straight at Ekans' eyes.

Sticky white threads stood out in the dark forest, reflecting the Moonlight aftertaste of Star End.

Hit Ekans right in the eye.

Suddenly, his fragile eyes were attacked, and Ekans also briefly panicked.

But he quickly reacted, and his rage as a predator surged.

Snakes do not see objects through their eyes.

However, since Natsu and Weedle had launched an attack, they were prepared not to give Ekan much time to react.

"Electro Web."

Electro Web immediately spread and Ekans couldn't dodge.

Even though the current being stimulated wasn't strong, it still caused Ekans to have convulsions and brief convulsions. The good toughness of the silk thread also does not allow it to fall off in a short time.

"Bug Bite."

Use it to kill him.

Poison Type and Bug Type moves can't deal the best damage to Ekans, so Natsu chooses Bug Bite, which currently Weedle can maximize damage.

Weedle spat out another silk thread, stuck to Ekans' body, and then approached as fast as usual with a swing.

"Knsss!!"

There was a scream of pain.

The tiny Weedle lay on Ekans, who had not yet been released from the shackles of the silk thread, and bit the seven inch position with his mouth.

Suddenly, the scales cracked, the muscle fibers tore and blood spilled out.

Seeing Ekans about to break free from the pain, Weedle hastily proceeded to charge several String Shots at him.

After making sure it couldn't escape for a short time, he bit again.

Ekans never imagined that, as a predator, he would be attacked by Weedle, the Pokemon at the bottom of the food chain in his eyes.

The point is that this sticky thread is very strong, and is stimulated and assisted by an electric current, so it cannot be separated for a while.

And this short period of time cost Ekans a painful price.

Seeing the injured and incapacitated Ekans, Natsu immediately stepped over, "Time is running out, the longer the night, the more dangerous it is. When it comes back, it gets handled, it's gone. Forget it, you can't take a sesame seed and lose a watermelon."

Weedle tucked the thread back into Natsu's shoulder, didn't say anything, just stared at the depths of the forest where they were headed.

He could feel it, and it wasn't far away.

Fortunately, not in the deepest part of the forest.

But if it was in the deepest part, Weedle probably wouldn't be able to sense it.

Natsu also learned this information from Weedle's mouth.

But the focus is on other issues.

"From Rattata and Ekans' reactions, they shouldn't sense the existence of things like Weedle. Rattata is a Normal Type Pokémon, and Ekans is also a Poison Type but isn't affected by it, so what has Weedle interested in this time regarding the Bug Type?"

These conclusions are mixed.

This means that in this competition, there will most likely be no Pokémon with other Attributes, and the pressure will drop suddenly.

But relatively speaking, the number of Bug-Type Pokemon in the forest was definitely not small, and they might be attracted like Weedle and move in the same direction.

Time was running out, as seen in Weedle's increasingly agitated response.

But Natsu remained calm and approached slowly.

During that period, he also defeats Zubat and other Mankeys who get in the way, and clears up any hidden dangers that may be left on the way back.

Once he finds something wrong, he can also take Weedle back as soon as possible.

Cross a small stream and pass some thick bushes.

Finally.

When it gets closer.

Even Natsu could smell a faint greenish scent, which showed how seductive it was.

The area suddenly opened in front of him, and the line of sight was restored, and the Moonlight instantly illuminated the ground.

can be seen.

In this empty area there are many Pokemon, and there are also several groups of Pokemon, which divide each other into areas and warn each other.

Most are on the Weedle and Beedrill sides, and opposite Catterpie and Butterfree, with a smaller group of Pokémon like Paras in the middle.

And one of them is the sturdy Pinsir, occupying a plot of territory by itself.

These Pokemon are hostile to each other.

But it can be noticed that their eyes are all locked in the middle of the area.

Hiding in the thick bushes, Natsu could faintly see a sapling growing in the middle of the central area.

What really attracts this Bug-Type Pokemon are the two Berry, emerald green Berry that grow on a sapling, which emit a faint fluorescence under the illumination of the Moonlight.

Several Venonats were standing under a tree, alerting nearby Bug-Type Pokémon, the tentacles on their heads were shaking frequently, and two sharp fangs spread with their mouths open.

It seems that this place was originally Venonat's territory, and what's interesting about Bug Type Pokemon is what they guard.

Natsu narrowed his eyes.

Looking at the Berry, he thought of the description of this Berry in the book about Bug-Type Pokemon that he read not too long ago.

"Insect Berry? One of the main ingredients of a Peak Level Bug-Type Pokémon Pokéblock, which can increase the perception of Bug-Type Pokémon and Bug-Type energy usage, as well as improve understanding and mastery of Bug-Type Pokémon moves?"

Information about these two Berry crossed his mind.

Also understand why there is such a huge temptation for Weedle and Bug-Type Pokémon around.

This is nature's gift to Pokemon.

But this reward should also attract a lot of Bug-Type Pokemon.

It's full of crises.
