Chapter 72: Assisting Misty

"What's the point of catching so many Pokémon? You can only use 6 Pokémon in the game. It's just a waste of resources to catch too many Pokémon. It's better to concentrate resources on a few Pokémon." Gary complained.

However, Orange and Yellow caught so many Pokémon because they wanted to compare the potential of similar Pokémon and choose the one with the highest potential for Breeder.

Do you really think that anyone can be like Ash, and catch any Pokémon with potential above the gym level?

Although it is not clear what the potential of Ash's Squirtle and Bulbasaur is, I think they have Elite potential, otherwise they would not be able to defeat Brandon's Pokémon in the later stage.

"What you said makes sense, but doesn't Trainer just want to catch more Pokémon?" Ash asked in confusion.

Gary said with a headache: "That's just a competition between children. Besides, Pokémon need to eat. You can't afford to raise so many Pokémon?"

"That's right!"

Ash was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that Breeder Pokémon cost money. Ash, who was usually stingy, heard this and felt that it was not a good thing to capture too many Pokémon.

"Hey! Now we are talking about Hypnosis. Do you two have Pokémon that can Hypnosis?" Misty interrupted the conversation between the two.

"I don't."

Ash shook his head frantically to indicate that he didn't.

"As for me... I remember that Zubat can Hypnosis, but I don't know if my Zubat can." Brock said.

"Why don't you test it quickly?" Misty urged.

So, after soaking in the hot spring, everyone went to see if Brock's Zubat could Hypnosis.

...!

"Zubat, come out." Brock opened the Poké Ball in his hand.

Great!

A short Zubat appeared.

[LV21 Zubat♂/quasi-elite]

Gary's eyelids jumped when he saw Zubat's name information.

What kind of person is this? Every Zubat he casually captures has quasi-elite potential.

If Gary hadn't been seriously looking for wild Pokémon with high potential, he would have doubted whether this world is full of quasi-elite potential Pokémon, and Elite and champion potential Pokémon can be easily encountered.

Gary remembered that Brock's Zubat was also captured in Mt. Moon, and it seemed that it was captured in a simple way. I didn't expect that a Zubat captured casually has quasi-elite potential. It's really enviable.

"Zubat, do you know Hypnosis?" Brock asked.

"Zubat." Zubat nodded, indicating that he could use Hypnosis.

"That's great, can you test it for Psyduck?" Misty immediately pushed Psyduck over.

"Psy?"

Psyduck was confused, not knowing why he was hypnotized. His sleep Contest Condition was obviously very good, he never suffered from insomnia, but he lacked sleep.

"Zubat, try to use Hypnosis to hypnotize Psyduck, and give Psyduck the command to release Confusion." Brock said.

"Zubat."

Zubat flew in front of Psyduck, and under Psyduck's puzzled expression, he cast Hypnosis.

Zubat's Hypnosis was carried out by borrowing sound waves. The hypnotic sound waves spread out, and Psyduck was hypnotized instantly. His eyelids drooped and closed directly, and he fell into a deep sleep.

"Psyduck, use Confusion." Misty tried to order Psyduck, but Psyduck was sleeping soundly, which was completely different from Sabrina's Contest Condition for hypnotizing Psyduck.

"Why did Psyduck fall asleep?" Misty looked at Gary and Sabrina in confusion.

Gary didn't know what was going on, and he wasn't an expert in Hypnosis.

"Because Zubat's Hypnosis is not good enough, he can only use Hypnosis to hypnotize Rival, and can't give Psyduck instructions through hypnosis." Sabrina explained.

"Then what should I do?" Misty thought that having a Pokémon that can Hypnosis would be enough, but she didn't expect that there was a requirement for Hypnosis.

"I can give this Zubat some pointers." Sabrina said.

Originally Sabrina didn't plan to help, but because Gary and Ash are friends, she was willing to help.

"Sabrina, can you teach Hypnosis?" Gary asked in surprise.

"I'm a Psychic, isn't it normal to teach Hypnosis?" Sabrina said.

Gary's Alakazam can't Hypnosis, and he was having a headache about what to do. Unexpectedly, Sabrina could teach it. If he had known earlier, he would have let Sabrina teach it.

Unfortunately, Alakazam was sent to Professor Oak's Laboratory, and we can only exchange Alakazam back when we get to the city.

"Ms. Sabrina, how long does it take to learn?" Brock asked.

"I'm just teaching methods. Zubat needs to practice by himself later. If he can't master it, I can't do anything." Sabrina said.

"Then sister Sabrina, how long do you plan to teach?" Misty asked hurriedly.

"It depends on whether Gary's schedule will be delayed."

After Sabrina finished speaking, everyone looked at Gary.

"I will stay in the hot spring town for three days. Is three days enough?" Gary said.

"Enough." Sabrina said.

"That's great."

Misty was very happy. With the help of Sabrina and Gary, she believed that Zubat could master the specific use of Hypnosis in a short time.

"I thank Miss Sabrina for her help on behalf of Zubat." Brock thanked.

No matter what, Zubat is Brock's Pokémon, and Brock, as a trainer, also needs to thank him.

Gary looked at Brock, who suddenly changed his personality, and thought that Sabrina might not be old enough to attract Brock.

Brock is a top-level thief. Any big sister over 20 years old is within his hunting range. Unfortunately, this guy is too enthusiastic every time he meets a girl, which makes the girls too scared. Only women in the Unova Region are more suitable for him.

Stephanie from the Kanto Region can't accept Brock as he is. Unless Brock is handsome enough, there is no chance.

"Then take a good rest."

After traveling in the wild for so long, you need to take a good rest in these three days.

As for why you need to stay in the hot spring town for three days, it is naturally because in the battle just now, Primeape defeated Pikachu and the level was raised to level 35, which has reached the standard for learning the Fist of Rage.

As long as Primeape masters the Fist of Rage, one of the conditions for evolution is met, and then it is a test of how to evolve.

Gary's Primeape also awakened the Fist of Rage, and it is time to figure out how to make Primeape evolve into Annihilape.

The next morning.

Gary brought his Pokémon to an open space outside the hot spring town and started today's training.

Performance training in the morning, after releasing his Pokémon, everyone consciously put on Macho Brace to train.

"Primeape, come here." Gary called Primeape alone.

"What?"

Primeape looked at Gary, wondering why Gary kept it, was he going to teach it new skills again?
