77. Silver Wing

After receiving the eyewitness testimony from the Team Rocket Trio, Ash and his party decided to climb the snow-white huge mountain.

"But climbing up a snow-capped mountain is not that easy! And Ash, are you sure you want to take little Molly with you?" Nurse Joy wanted to remind Ash and everyone to think carefully.

Especially Ash, he was going to use a rope to fix Molly on his back and take her to climb the snow mountain.

No matter how confident you are in your own skills, you can't take risks like this!

But Molly and Ash were very insistent, especially Molly. She doesn't want to wait here for her brother to come back. She also wants to climb the mountain to meet the legendary Articuno!

Now that she has caught a Jigglypuff, she is also considered a Pokémon Trainer!

Pokémon Trainer should not be afraid of hardships and move forward courageously!

But fearlessness does not mean recklessness. Ash decided to take her with him. Of course he will shoulder all this responsibility and protect Molly from any harm that comes her way.

Ash just shook his head and didn't say anything. Instead, Brock stood up decisively and said, "Don't worry, I will follow them all the way!"

Nurse Joy looked at him suspiciously, "Do you have any experience climbing snow mountains?"

"I don't!"

Please, Brock, don't speak so confidently if this is not the case.

Putting on professional cold-proof clothing, Ash and his party officially set off!

The difference from Team Rocket is that they took the usual path up the mountain instead of climbing up the cliff and ice wall from the back.

However, blizzard commonly appears on the snowy mountain, and the weather becomes worse and worse!

"Ash, does this phenomenon mean that Articuno is nearby?" Misty held Ash's hand tightly and relied on his strength to stabilize her body. In such bad weather, Ash's palms felt very safe and warm for Misty.

"It would be great if it is!" Todd hopes Articuno is right in front of him. "We have passed it too many times before~"!

It's so easy to meet legendary Pokémon!

However, Todd was anxious and wanted to take a step forward, but Ash held him back.

"Ash, what are you doing!"

"Todd, wait a minute!" Misty heard the reproach in Todd's tone and said quickly, "The blizzard is so big now, you can't even tell the difference between south, east, west, or north!"

Ash's face was gloomy, "Todd, look carefully. Is there any kind of road in front of you?"

Since entering the snow mountain, Ash has maximized the induction of the power of his Aura. Even in this Blizzard, he can still recognize the path under his feet.

Hearing this, Todd looked down and saw that the snow-covered place was clearly a cliff!

They can clearly see a towering ice cliff in front of you, but don't know that there is a natural chasm between your feet and the ice cliff!

"Ash, thank you!" Todd couldn't help but feel scared. Without Ash, he might have fallen to his death. He had to sincerely thank him and quickly calmed down his emotions.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and everyone's breath condenses into ice mists!

"We can't go any further!" Ash had to make this decision. He must be responsible for everyone's safety. But it was Molly who shrank in Ash's arms. The conditions now was very bad!

"Let's return immediately!"

He has to get everyone back quickly now, before the Blizzard gets too big to see each other!

However, just then, the hurricane snow stopped.

It was the kind of sudden stop without warning. Everyone one of them looked up and saw that the existence they had been thinking about appeared so real in front of them.

Ash has always believed that Articuno is the most beautiful of the Three Legendary Birds.

Now that Articuno was in front of him, he confirmed his opinion even more.

Beautiful ice blue feathers, said to be made from the purest of ice. The three dark blue prismatic crystal feathers on the top of the head to form the crown, and the long, colorful flag-shaped tail flutters towards the Blizzard, which is particularly gorgeous.

The past Ash has also met Articuno when he traveled along the Orange Islands.

Not just Articuno, but Moltres, Zapdos and even The Guardian of the Sea, Lugia!

Todd reacted quickly and immediately raised his camera and took a photo of Articuno.

Ash has given up the idea of ​​catching this specific Articuno. This is the Guardian of the snowy mountains. Not to mention that it is not very compatible with him, and it is not something that he can monopolize.

Moreover, now they encounter Blizzard, Misty's arms that are holding him is constantly shaking, and she is obviously in a very uncomfortable state.

Now that Articuno has controlled Blizzard for them, they are safe and sound. How can he propose a catching battle to Articuno at this time?

However, Articuno suddenly fell towards everyone and landed in front of Ash.

"Articuno!" Molly responded quickly and stretched out her little hand to stroke Articuno's feathers.

She succeeded, because Articuno folded his wings and stood in front of Ash.

Ash could clearly see the look in its eyes, which was a kind of doubt and speculation. It seemed that it had sensed a certain aura on Ash's body, making it unclear how a human could have the aura of that creature.

Suddenly, Ash remembered something and quickly took something out of his backpack!

A beautiful feather!

None other than Rainbow Wing from Ho-Oh!

In this cold weather, it exudes warmth. As soon as the feather was taken out, Misty's shivering immediately became better.

As expected, Articuno felt Ho-Oh's aura on Ash's body, and then he landed in front of Ash.

Then, it lowered its head, and its cold beak landed on Ash's outstretched palm.

Then, it flapped its wings, flew into the air again, and disappeared into the snow-capped mountains. There must be its nest up there, but they was no longer prepared to go up there.

The Blizzard has stopped under the power of Articuno, Todd has been satisfied with taking a photo of Articuno, and Ash hurriedly led everyone down the mountain.

Sure enough, Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy were already organizing manpower to search for them, after all, it was such a giant Blizzard.

Seeing that everyone was safe and sound, they finally felt a little relieved.

It wasn't until they returned to the Pokémon Center that Ash had the opportunity to check what Articuno had just given to him.

This is clearly another feather!

It's just that this feather looks much harder and feels like a piece of metal, shining silver color.

This is the Silver Wing, which has the same function as the Rainbow Wing and can summon Lugia!

As for the location of Lugia, it's in the deepest part of the Whirl Islands!

Regarding Whirl Islands, the group will definitely go there!
