...
After a night of grooming, the Pokémons are almost back in shape.
Starting today is when they officially start high-intensity combat training.
Natsu also informed them in advance to prepare them all.
Beedrill is of course no problem, it's definitely one of Natsu's current Pokémon favorites.
Oh, now to rule out Doublade entering another state.
And Kadabra wouldn't mind.
Although compared to Beedrill, it prefers to train silently and train Psychic to improve itself, but if there is a battle, it will not refuse. This is an effective way to improve strength, and the effect is greater than training.
Kadabra felt the pressure again and became more hardworking after seeing Doublade's evolutionary strength soaring.
Every night in the middle of the night, Kadabra sits cross-legged in the air, trains his Psychic, and uses a Calm Mind to recuperate when he is tired, which can also replace rest.
Togetic is probably the only Pokémon that doesn't like it that much.
But disliking doesn't mean resisting.
After all Pokémon have nodded in agreement, even Doublade, how can Togetic as a "socialite" not fit in?
So Togetic chose to accept it.
As for Doublade, he just evolved, and he really wants to see how his own strength is, so that he can have a more accurate position than himself.
If there is no accident, Doublade in normal state will still be the most cautious and timid one in the team.
And their goal today.
It is on the south side of the hillside where the cave is located, where the light is the best, and it is also the area with the most lush vegetation.
Connects to the territory of Tyrantrum.
If today goes well, this territory will be incorporated into the area under Natsu's control.
Riding the Tyrantrum, a full-fledged "Dragon Knight", Natsu takes the Pokémon to the edge of the area.
Tyrantrum just got close and caught the attention of some Pokémons in the territory.
Natsu's target area this time is quite special, because the Pokémon living in it are relatively mild, so it is not an area that belongs to one type of Pokémon alone, but multiple ethnic groups and multiple Pokémon living together , Help each other, support each other, take care of each other.
They are no strangers to their "neighbors", Tyrantrum.
So just getting close, they showed obvious "unwelcome" or even hostility to Natsu and the others.
The first thing that appeared in their sight was a Pokémon with an oval body, wrapped in a thick deep blue carapace, and a huge tentacle on its head, which looked exactly like Horned Beetle's Pokémon.
Heracross!
A Bug Type and Fighting Type Pokémon, very docile, but this Pokémon has a very terrifying power, especially when it is Rage, the pair of horns on its head can definitely make the enemy feel fear.
Heracross stared at Tyrantrum in a hostile manner.
"What did you do to them?" Natsu asked in surprise.
Tyrantrum opened its mouth.
'What else can I do?
I was greedy before, and Berry on the hillside was not fully mature, so I went in and grabbed a few Berry.'
"Huh—"
Natsu chuckled.
He not blaming Tyrantrum, after all, it's normal.
It saves him a lot of trouble now.
"Is this Heracross the protector of this territory?"
Tyrantrum's huge head nod.
Tyrantrum can't deal with Heracross, and Heracross can't help Tyrantrum.
Heracross should have some Attribute advantages, as well as a few little Pokémons.
Natsu poking out their heads after sweeping through the tree trunks behind Heracross.
And received the Help from these Pokémons.
Therefore, Heracross should be inferior to Tyrantrum in terms of hard power, otherwise it will not let Tyrantrum rush into their territory to take Berry and be unable to stop it.
Heracross then noticed Natsu's presence.
Seeing that he was actually standing on the body of Tyrantrum, and Tyrantrum still looked honest, he immediately understood that Tyrantrum was subdued by Natsu, and his eyes showed surprise.
It can be said that no Pokémon knows more about the strength of Tyrantrum, even if it loses, didn't expect to be subdued, which doubles the pressure.
"The wild speaks with his fists, defeat it first, and then negotiate slowly," Natsu said, his eyes signaling the Pokémons to get ready.
Since the opponent has a support Pokémon to help, then they don't need to talk about one-on-one strategy.
Psychic Terrain, Sword Dance, and Agility are all open.
Beedrill leads, Doublade follow closely from behind, Kadabra controls the field, Togetic controls the enemies.
The level of tacit understanding between the four Pokémon is very high, and the cooperative battle is not one or two times. If the enemy is just a Heracross, the impossible is their opponent.
Bang!
Beedrill's Flying Type's Acrobatics move inflicted huge damage on Heracross and made Heracross scream in pain.
The combination of Bug Type and Fighting Type is four times weaker in the face of Flying Type's moves, and the weakness is too obvious.
"Ho La!"
Heracross let out a low cry after standing still, a faint azure streamer appeared on his body, and his imposing manner was rising.
"Is Swarm Characteristic Trait?"
Swarm: Swarm increases the power of Bug-type moves by 50% (1.5×) when the ability-bearer's HP falls below a third of its maximum (known in-game as in a pinch).
"Boom!"
It's not just Swarm's Characteristic Trait that gets triggered.
Behind Heracross, there was a crisp and sweet Growl like a silver bell, and pink cherry blossoms slowly fell from the sky and sprinkled on Heracross's body, and its imposing manner rose again.
Natsu looked in the direction of the sound and saw one of the targets he locked on this time.
A petite and cute Pokémon wearing a short skirt made of pink cherry blossom petals with hair like cherry blossom petals, two berry-like balls on its head, pink arms and Yellow legs.
Grass Type Pokémon, Cherrim!
And the scattered cherry blossoms just now are the unique Characteristic Trait of Pokémon like Cherrim, the flowers gift!
The Flowers Gift: Flower Gift raises the Attack and Special Defense of all party Pokémon by 50% during harsh sunlight.
This is a very buggy Characteristic Trait. In the game, Pokémon with this Characteristic Trait can increase the attack and special defense of himself and his companions by 50%!
What is this concept?
A combination of terrifying group damage buffs and defense buffs.
And they were Natsu's primary targets.
Even just one Characteristic Trait alone is enough for Natsu to capture one as a temporary team booster.
The increase in attack power will undoubtedly bring a huge increase to Beedrill and Doublade. The increase in special defense can also make up for the lack of Honedge's special defense, and strengthen the already good special defense capabilities of Kadabra and Togetic.
The most important thing is that Cherrim not only has such a Characteristic Trait, in theory, in their Genetic moves, they can also Genetically reach such things as Heal Pulse, Healing Wish, Aromatherapy, Grassy Terrain, etc. that Natsu urgently needs. Healing moves.
A Mega support that combines buffs and healing abilities!
A Pokémon like this is definitely the biggest help in his wasteland reclamation plan.
The two Pokémons Yanmega and Tyrantrum, none of which is worth more to him than a Cherrim.
Of course.
Now the premise is to defeat Heracross, which is only boosted by a huge buff.
