Chapter 37 Biological Instincts (rewrite)

...

Weedle didn't hesitate, and as soon as Natsu said it, he did.

With his tail, he carefully removed the poison pouch from the glass bottle, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it with three or two chews.

The texture and taste are completely different from Pokéblock, but to Weedle, it is just as delicious.

Natsu's eyes fell on Weedle, and after seeing that Weedle didn't react in any way, he became more confident and continued: "Eat Beedrill's poison pouch."

"Wow!"

Weedle nodded and opened the glass bottle.

The difference from Ekans poison pouch was that as soon as the glass vial containing the Beedrill poison pouch was opened, a faint purple mist was immediately wafted out, and the entire room also smelled like rotting fish.

Natsu frowned and took two steps back.

The poison in this poison pouch was far more powerful than he had imagined.

Weedle didn't hesitate. Instead, it was as if he saw a delicious piece of cake.

This time, Weedle started to change.

A thin purple mist began to emerge from his body, from the carapace of every limb, from his mouth, from the top of his head and from the horns on his tail.

Natsu narrowed his eyes.

"It worked, but wasn't it enough?"

"Woo?"

Weedle also felt the changes in his body and raised his head in confusion to look at Natsu.

Weedle was feeling weird now.

There was an indescribable feeling, as if all the cells in his body were groaning, his little heart was beating so fast, and it felt like it was going to jump out of his mouth.

If Natsu had to describe it.

It's like someone drinking five or six cans of Red Bull at the same time, plus three or four cups of coffee, and finally getting to drink some bitter tea.

Enthusiastic!

Every inch of muscle and every cell in the body seemed to vibrate and vibrate.

Seeing Weedle's change, Natsu thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Eat Arbok's poison pouch!"

Arbok (elite) was at least two levels stronger than Weedle. The poison of this poison pouch is also the strongest.

"Woo~~"

Weedle didn't stop even though he hesitated.

Natsu explained, unsure whether he was comforting Weedle or comforting himself, saying: "It is common sense that Poison Type Pokémon cannot be poisoned, but this common sense is not absolute, if the poisoned Poison Type Pokémon is too strong, or the difference in strength between they are too big, and they will still be poisoned."

It's like the same move that makes Dark Type Pokémon immune to Psychic Types.

But to say that a newborn Dark-Type Pokémon was immune to the moves of a champion-level Psychic-Type Pokémon would be ridiculous.

Natsu doesn't even need a champion Pokemon, it is thought that a little stronger can play a role, but the effect of the role is different.

In the same way, the premise that a Poison Type Pokémon can be immune to poisoning is that it will be poisoned if it falls within the tolerance range of a Poison Type Pokémon.

"Ordinary poison pouches can only be considered as a good supplement and food for Poison Type Pokémon, but it is impossible to increase their toxicity, so the most important part of 'poison enhancement' is a similar method, is poisoning Poison Type Pokémon!"

Natsu talks about the key message he got from the book.

That's why he went to the black market to buy so many pouches of poison.

Weedle must be poisoned first!

"Woo-"

While listening to Natsu's explanation, Weedle had eaten Arbok's most poisonous poison pouch.

For a while, the thin layer of poisonous mist that originally surrounded him suddenly became several times thicker, and Weedle's voice also changed its tone.

A light purple pattern spreads slowly in a shiny sharp corner above his head, and the carapace on his body is also slowly infiltrated by a purple halo.

Looks like Weedle has been poisoned.

"I originally bought so many just to prepare, but now I don't seem to buy too much. I ate the last one."

Natsu's hand stuck to the special antidote in his pocket, keep an eye on Weedle, and use the antidote as soon as it's in the wrong state.

Even if this poison pouch was wasted, Weedle wouldn't be in any trouble.

And Weedle's joy was gone.

As a Poison Type Pokémon, Weedle felt poisoned for the first time.

It's a little uncomfortable.

But he still gritted his teeth and ate the last pouch of poison.

Natsu wouldn't hurt him, he knew exactly how much money it would take to buy this poison pouches, and it shouldn't be wasted!

With the last poison pouch eaten, Weedle's appearance completely changed.

His original tawny carapace had now completely turned purple, and even the sharp horns on his head were not spared.

"Once a Poison Type Pokémon is poisoned, it will stimulate it's own poison in the body to fight it. This is similar to the so-called fighting poison with poison. If the poisoning is caused by an external problem, it will be more troublesome. You can only use the antidote, but if the Poisoning caused by eating different poison pouch.

A Poison Type Pokémon is a tonic, containing a lot of Poison Type energy, which can feed and replenish its own poison and stimulate its own Poison, called 'antibodies' to be produced.

And these antibodies are actually toxicity boosters."

Natsu said calmly, but his heart was still nervous.

Poison Type Pokémon are immune to poisoning. This is immunity akin to fighting poison with poison. When the foreign poison is too strong, it will be poisoned when the poison itself cannot resist.

And Weedle's current state is that the foreign poison is too strong, and the poison himself is too weak to resist the foreign poison, so he was poisoned.

However, when poisoning Weedle, the poison pouch provides plenty of Poison Type energy to feed and replenish his own poison.

Under the pressure of external poison, the evolution of biological instincts will strengthen his own poison to fight it.

This is the instinct of biological evolution in nature.

This is also a way of cultivating Poison Type Pokémon that has been passed down from ancient times.

"Wait, Weedle! You'll change when you go through it!"

Natsu looked calm on the surface to boost Weedle's confidence, but he was actually more nervous than Weedle, His hand holding the antidote was covered in sweat.

"Woo!!"

Weedle's voice was painful, but he was actually very relieved and calm.

This is because of the trust in Natsu.

It's just a pain in the body, hold on for a while and it will pass.

But this is tolerable.

It lasted three hours.

The dense purple mist surrounding Weedle had completely dissipated.

It couldn't be said to have disappeared, it was more like it was attached to Weedle's body.

And now Weedle looked like he had been smeared with a layer of bright purple paint.

And his eyes closed.

Natsu's grip on the antidote was stiff, but he didn't dare let go.

The information in the book had been carefully considered and summed up by him. It was decent, and the worthiness wasn't low, so he would let Weedle eat it head-on.

He also made preparations for this, the Top Rank Pokéblocks could provide Weedle with sufficient energy supply to ensure that it would not be completely eroded by the poison, and the price of special antidotes was even more expensive, just in case.

But from the current situation, Weedle was completely stable and shouldn't be used anymore.

Click-

Suddenly.

A crisp and smooth voice came from Weedle.

Natsu is refreshed.

Immediately after.

Ka Ka Ka –

More and more noises appeared, and fine cracks were tightly closed on Weedle's body. One of the largest cracks pierced straight from the top of the head to the tail.

Beneath the cracked crack, crystal yellow earth reappeared before Natsu's eyes,

"Woo"

Softly growl.

Weedle pulled the bound legs twice, and slowly crawled out of the body that had been dipped in purple with hesitation.

It's peeled off again!
