29. Houndour

Squirtle has actually evolved, and its compatibility and bonding with him have also been greatly improved from the previous number.

It finally made its own choice. Since it chose to follow Ash in the first place, it should go all the way to the end. It officially bid farewell to its former partners and handed them over to Officer Jenny for future training.

From this point on, it has only one identity, and that is Ash's Wartortle!

In this case, Ash of course has decided to keep Wartortle with him.

Therefore, the Pokémon Ash kept with him now are:

Pikachu:220/255

Snorlax: 200/255

Bayleef: 200/215

Quilava: 130/215

Slowpoke:135/180

Wartortle: 190/215

Pikachu's compatibility has already been far reached in the highs, and his bond value is steadily but consistently increasing.

Ash is not in a hurry about this. He and Pikachu get along day and night, and their compatibility will definitely reach full value. He just needs to let the bonding value slowly increase.

The compatibility of Snorlax is also full. After Ash came to the Johto Region and awakened the system, he came with it here and carried it with him all the time. Through daily training and feeding, the bonding value was slowly increased.

Bayleef and Quilava are both Pokémon from the Johto Region. These two were Starter Pokémon obtained by Ash because of luck, and both of them completed their first evolution.

This Slowpoke is the Slowpoke God that Ash caught when he was in Azalea Town. It is very different from the a normal Slowpoke and has very high intelligence. Ash plans to train it for a while and then let it evolve into Slowking!

Although the Slowbro evolved from Slowpoke can perform Mega Evolution, this is of course not a problem for Ash who has a bonding system. Once the evolved Slowking can reach full compatibility and bonding values, it will Can evolve into Ash's version of Slowking!

But before that, Ash is going to catch a Shellder who is also suitable to him and his Slowpoke!

Through this most complete evolution method, the evolved Slowking will have the highest degree of fit possible!

In general, he has already accumulated a very strong power now!

"Ash, lunch is ready!"

At noon that day, Ash took his Pokémon for special training, leaving Misty and Brock to set up a camp in the forest and prepare lunch.

I have to say that having Brock here can really save a lot of worry during the journey.

Ash is also able to pursue his dream of becoming a Pokémon Master with more focus.

"Sorry, I kept you waiting!" When we got back to the camp, the food was indeed fragrant.

"By the way, Ash, take out the bread!" Brock greeted.

The bread purchased earlier was placed in Ash's backpack. Because he was going to special training, the backpack was put down and given to Brock and Misty to watch over.

However, when the three of them went to get their backpacks again, they found that the backpacks somehow went missing while they were not looking.

"How was it stolen?"

"But the two of us are here, and we haven't seen anyone coming at all!" Misty and Brock have micro responsibility for improper supervision and not paying attention, but now is not the time to talk about that.

"Ash, do you have anything valuable in your backpack?" Brock asked.

"I carry the Badge collection box, Poké Ball and Pokédex with me. There is nothing of much importantance in my backpack." Ash shook his head and replied.

However, this backpack has been traveling with him from the beginning, and he must find it back for that nostalgia.

A blue light flashed on Ash's body, and the power of his Aura had quickly spread out throughout the area.

Soon, he found a series of footprints on the ground. Judging from the shape, they should be the footprints of some kind of canine Pokémon.

"Did this Pokémon steal your backpack? Is it not for your items, but for the food inside of it?" Misty reasoned.

Ash and Brock both nodded and thought it made sense.

"It seems that the footprints are heading towards the forest. Ash, should follow them and see what's up?"

"Of course, I have to get my bag from them!"

Ash and his gang didn't have time to finish their lunch, so they packed up their things again and chased after them. Fortunately, this time Brock planned to make sandwiches, and all other ingredients could be packed.

"Pika!"

Following the footprints, they had reached the depths of the forest before they knew it.

Just here, the footprints were interrupted and they came to a patch of dense grass area!

Blue light flashed across his body again, but nothing suspicious was found, but the stomachs of the three of them growled.

"I'm so hungry!"

Misty's words made Ash's eyes light up, "Brock, let's start dinner! We should have some ingredients! It's best to use meat!"

Hearing this, Brock immediately understood and nodded immediately, "Of course, I was planning to make a ham sandwich!"

Having made up their minds, Ash and the other two immediately started to re-build the tent, made a fire to cook, and even grilled the ham until it was fragrant!

By the time they were finished, the sky was getting dark, and a full moon appeared in the sky.

Finally, the target couldn't stand the smell of ham and jumped out!

"Don't even think about running away once you're here!"

At that moment, the same old blue light flashed across his eyes, and Psychic broke out and was about to catch the target.

But the pinkish light suddenly shattered, and his Psychic had no effect on the target?

"How can it be?"

Ash, who couldn't react for a moment, just watched the ham disappear in front of him.

"Damn it, it's a Dark Type Pokémon!"

Psychic attacks is completely ineffective against Dark Type!

In the Dark Type canine Pokémon in the Johto Region, Ash can already guess what Pokémon it is!

Houndour, the Dark Pokémon, Dark and Fire Type!

"Woo~"

It seemed that he was angered by Ash's attack just now. Suddenly, scarlet eyes lit up from the nearby grass, and a low roar sounded particularly terrifying on this full moon night.

"Brock , just protect Misty while I handle this guys!"

Feeling the malice around him, Ash whispered to Brock who was beside him. 'There sure are a lot of Houndour around!'

"Ash!"

Misty couldn't help but grab the corner of his clothes and hide behind Ash. Ash noticed that she was getting closer and closer to him by the day. He didn't mind it at all.

"Don't worry, it's not that easy for them to defeat me!"

At this time, the other Houndours had already appeared, as many as four of them, surrounding Ash and his party, their scarlet eyes were very scary.

"Woof!"

On the hillside under the full moon, there was a taller and stronger Houndour, looking down at Ash and the others with a terrifying aura.

That must be the leader of these Houndour!

Ash held the Poké Ball and looked at Houndour on the hillside, "If I can beat you in this fight, you will let me catch you!"

Unexpectedly, the Houndour Leader actually jumped down from the hillside and stood in front of Ash.

It really accepted the challenge!

"I'm not that bad so I won't bully you, let's go and decide the outcome, Quilava!"
