Chapter 431 Believe him
...
Natsu doesn't deny that he has thoughts for this Mudsdale group.
Of course not because Pokemon like Mudsdale can not only ride, they can also pull things, but they can also solve their own food problems, they can eat rocks and grass.
Well, at least not the main reason.
The main reason was because he remembered that Pokémon like Mudsdale would produce a kind of Item called "Light Clay".
Light Clay: The duration of the Light Screen, Reflect, and Aurora Veil that Pokemon use with this Item will be greatly extended.
The three moves, Light Screen, Reflect and Aurora Veil, are actually very practical moves, which can be well integrated into various systems, so the price of Items like "Light Clay" is not cheap.
Although the chances of Mudsdale producing "Light Clay" weren't high, it was still an advantage.
Moreover, Mudsdale had already attacked the moment they entered the third layer.
This is their first mover.
"Kadabra, Psychic Terrain."
"Beedrill, Doublade, Sword Dance."
"Togetic, Magical Leaf."
There's nothing to doubt, so he doesn't have to spend and consume, and there's still a harvest, and Pokemon that can play a role shouldn't be missed.
Hearing his orders, the four Pokemon immediately went to war.
"Xu Lu Lu!!"
Seeing Natsu and the others attack, the Mudsdale Boss raised his leg and gave instructions to the clan members.
Tuk-tuk-tuk-
For a moment, the sharp sound of a large number of horse hooves colliding with Stone suddenly rang out on the third layer.
"Honey~"
Cherrim releases Sunny Day to change her form, thus triggering the "Flower Gift" Characteristic Trait.
Scattered cherry blossom petals land on four Pokémon, greatly increasing their abilities.
Natsu feels that he made the right decision to use Cherrim as a "tool" to support and unlock the group's buff.
Cherrim has a very significant effect on the overall strength of a Pokémon.
Togetic's Magical Leaf shot like a snake, hitting the nearest Mudsdale that attacked them first.
While resisting the Grass Type movement, he also fell into the Flinch state, but the large size and impact of the heavy bomb did not stop him, but still rushed forward.
"Wow!!"
Doublade swung the huge blue Phantom Sword, slashed at Mudsdale hard, and even forcefully rammed his back for some distance before he could. stop.
'Although Doublade is a Steel-Type Pokémon, his weight and quality are still slightly reduced due to his size.' Natsu thought when he saw this.
He actually had something for Doublade to make up for this shortcoming, but it was only delayed due to this trial.
The Metal Coat, taken from where Regigigas created the Pillars, was of the same quality as Registeel's body material. If it could be attached to Doublade's body, it would definitely give his body's defensive power, weight and hardness, a huge increase.
However, such a change would definitely take time to adapt, and the current situation was not suitable.
Natsu came back from his thoughts.
Looking back at Mudsdale again.
It was clearly seen that red-orange mud oozed out of the attacked Mudsdale's body, covering his body, increasing his defensive power.
Natsu narrowed his eyes.
"Stamina Characteristic Traits."
This was the only Characteristic that Mudsdale and Mudbray had that he knew of so far.
Stamina: When attacked, your defensive power will increase, and even if you are attacked continuously, your defensive power will increase every time you are hit.
Mudsdale with such a Characteristic Trait and his already good physical defense and physical strength would definitely make a pretty good meat shield Pokémon, plus his equally good physical attack abilities, he's not a bad value.
But unfortunately, this feature overlaps with Doublade, so Natsu doesn't really conquer him.
Stamina Traits Apart from being able to play such a role in battle, it can also have a good effect in peacetime.
As the name suggests, the Stamina Characteristic Trait can make Mudsdale's extraordinary endurance stronger, be it pulling goods or riding, will have a good performance.
"Xu Lu Lu!!"
Mudsdale falls one by one in the perfect match of four of Natsu's Pokémon as he recalls the role of the Stamina Characteristic Traits.
The Mudsdale boss finally couldn't help himself, his front hooves kicked the Ground, and the white Spit Up on his nose was rough.
Suddenly.
Boss Mudsdale leapt into the air, a silver circle wrapped around his body, and moved towards Doublade with a terrifying aura.
Heavy Slams!
A move where the greater the difference between one's own weight and the opponent's weight, the higher the formidable power. The formidable maximum strength can reach 120 points.
You should know that an adult Mudsdale weighs almost 1000 kilograms, which is 1 ton. This mudsdale is stronger, bigger and definitely heavier.
This huge impact appeared, and Doublade's small body was completely disproportionate.
Also, this Mudsdale was already rushing, and even if Togetic used his attacks to put him in a Flinch state, the rush would continue.
"Ouch."
Doublade swept the ordinary Mudsdale beside him with his sword, then looked at the Boss who was rushing towards him.
Natsu and the other Pokemon don't worry, Doublade can sneak using Shadow Sneak.
But.
Doublade didn't use Shadow Sneak, but stared at Mudsdale with his head held high.
There was still fear and worry in his eyes, but there was still stubbornness in them.
The stubbornness that had allowed him to endure decades, practicing his own moves to the extreme without coming out, the kind of stubbornness that could repeat an action from start to finish without feeling boring, but, ever since he had followed Natsu, stubbornness had gradually been forgotten by him, now reappearing.
"en?" Natsu frowned, looking at Doublade who seemed to have given up on dodging.
What does it mean?
"Yong Ji." Kadabra raised the spoon, trying to use Ally Switch and Teleport to dodge attacks.
But Natsu's raised hand stopped him.
"Yongji?"
Kadabra looked at him in surprise.
Under Natsu's frown, his eyes were bright, there was a hint of a smile and a sigh.
"Believe him." Whisper softly.
Appropriate.
Trust him.
As a partner, choose to trust him.
After hearing this, Kadabra was stunned for a moment and then nodded.
But the raised spoon still hadn't been lowered, not to save Doublade, but to harvest Boss Mudsdale after Doublade's plan had worked.
What did Doublade do?
He was actually waiting for an opportunity.
Since the last time he had a heart-to-heart talk in Celestic Town.
As soon as he entered this different space, he entered a complex and intricate underground Tunnel. no chance for him.
When it came to Ryuzaki's Sandstorm team, there was still no chance for him.
But this time, it felt like the opportunity had come!
The Mudsdale group is not large, except for this Mudsdale Boss, all of them have been harvested by Beedrill and others into pieces.
And this time Mudsdale Boss' Heavy Slam made him feel a lot of pressure.
And all you have to do is wait.
What are you waiting for?
Wait for the others to come out!
Another character from Doublade.
Since Natsu said, let 'them' have a good chat to maximize the combination of Fury Cutter and Sacred Sword.
Not knowing when it started, Doublade who was shy, cautious, and wise, turned little by little influenced by Natsu.
If it had been the previous Doublade, he would never have been able to perform this kind of insane behavior, which in his view was seeking death.
But now, he put Natsu's words first, breaking through his innate character limitations and transforming himself for Natsu.
This kind of change is a complete achievement for any Trainer.
Natsu also stopped Kadabra because he saw what Doublade wanted to do.
Fail?
Consequence?
It doesn't exist!
As Doublade's Trainer, Doublade trusted him with all his heart. Correspondingly, he also trusted Doublade 100%.
It is this two-way trust that creates the unbreakable bond between Trainers and Pokémon.
"He's coming."
Natsu's voice fell.
"Ouch?!"
Another Doublade's closed eyes suddenly opened, and words that nearly exploded out of it.
'Are you fucker?!'
Grumpy Old Brother, online!
