Pokemon: Reborn As Ash, I'll Conquer Every League

Chapter 48: Unfinished Battle

After leaving St. Anne’s, Ash and the others, with the help of Water-type Pokémon, safely arrived in Lampur City.

Seeing the many bikini-clad beauties on the beach, Brock immediately fell for them, and then Misty also became engrossed in the picturesque sea view.

Finally, Ash had no choice but to abandon his idea of meeting up with his mother and enter vacation mode on the spot.

"Huh, isn’t that Ash? So you’re not dead after all?"

Just as Ash was enjoying his sunbath, a familiar voice rang in his ear.

He opened his eyes and saw that it was indeed Gary.

"Stinky Gary?"

"Dead Ash!"

"Gary, did you know that ship had problems early on? You made us drift for a whole night, you really are despicable!" Ash, pretending to be a survivor of a disaster, accused Gary.

"Hey, don’t falsely accuse good people. How would I know that ship belonged to Team Rockets? Besides, with your strength, those second-rate guys are no big deal..." Gary said with a guilty conscience.

He really didn’t know that St. Anne’s was Team Rockets’ ship, nor did he know it was a conspiracy.

He got the tickets from the Sakuragi Research Lab.

As for why he gave them to Ash early in the morning, it was simply because he felt Ash’s progress was too slow.

"That’s not the point. The point is the ship sank and made us drift for a night, and you gave us the tickets, so you’re also responsible."

"So what do you want?"

"Let’s have a full battle."

Ash had long wanted to crush Gary.

If he proposed a challenge normally, Gary would definitely refuse, because no one likes to be abused, so...

Gary’s face turned ashen, "Let’s change the condition."

He wasn’t an idiot.

Setting aside the fact that Ash had always had the upper hand, just looking at the Pokémon next to Ash now, he had no desire to battle.

He couldn’t even beat Pikachu and Gardevoir to begin with.

Then there were the Bulbasaur and Squirtle whose sizes were comparable to Venusaur and Blastoise, and the Charmander whose tail flame was a deep orange-red.

None of them looked like easy opponents.

"That won’t do.

Beedrill, go!"

Ash was determined to win this one today.

Looking at the shiny Beedrill in front of him, Gary knew he couldn’t escape.

He could only reluctantly accept the challenge: "Go, Arcanine!"

Pokémon: Arcanine (Gary)

Gender: Male

Level: Gym Intermediate

Ability: Flash Fire

Potential: Elite

Skills: Fire Fang, Flare Blitz, Helping Hand, Bite, Agility, Flamethrower, Fire Blast, Sunny Day, Flame Charge, Heat Crash, Ultimate Impact...

"Gary, your Arcanine is well-trained!" Ash praised.

This rich skill panel made him somewhat want to get a dog like this, but considering that Growlithe needed a Fire Stone, he gave up on the idea.

Charmander’s origin hadn’t even been fully replenished yet, so he really couldn’t spare many Fire Stones.

"Of course.

Arcanine, Flame Wheel!"

Arcanine covered its entire body with flames, curled into a ball, and slammed into Beedrill.

"Beedrill, use Agility to dodge it!"

Beedrill quickly flapped its wings to increase its flying speed, and for a moment, Arcanine couldn’t catch up.

Seeing this, Gary knew that Flame Wheel was useless against the incredibly fast Beedrill, so he changed his move: "Arcanine, Flamethrower!"

"Beedrill, use X-Scissor to cut through the flames!"

"???"

Gary was confused by Ash’s command.

Even the onlookers who were watching the show were the same.

But the next moment, they witnessed Beedrill’s terror.

Beedrill quickly swung the Poison Sting on its arms, and the two horn-shaped Poison Sting were like two sharp swords.

The flames were blocked by the wind generated by Beedrill’s Poison Sting.

"Come back, Arcanine!

Go, Scyther!"

Seeing that the type advantage wasn’t working, Gary simply switched Pokémon.

Pokémon: Scyther (Gary)

Gender: Male

Level: Excellent Advanced

Ability: Technician

Potential: Quasi-Elite

Skills: Quick Attack, Fury Cutter, Double Team, Agility, Double Hit, X-Scissor, Swords Dance, Air Cutter, Bug Buzz...

"Beedrill, Fury Cutter!"

"Scyther, we’ll use Fury Cutter too!"

The two Pokémon engaged in close-quarters combat, their Poison Sting and scythes clashing again and again.

Beedrill’s level was not as high as Scyther’s, but its weapon was a Poison Sting, so it was normal for it to carry some poison.

Thus, the two Pokémon were evenly matched for a time.

"Beedrill, Pin Missile!"

Beedrill shot several poisonous stings at Scyther.

"Scyther, use Air Cutter to block them!"

Scyther unleashed two sharp blades of wind.

"Scyther, finish it with Aerial Ace!"

Gary gave another command.

Hit by Aerial Ace, Ash’s Beedrill also lost its ability to battle, but Gary’s Scyther’s stamina was also almost depleted.

"Beedrill, you did very well."

Given Beedrill’s Excellent Low level, Ash was already very satisfied with how it performed.

After all, it was an over-level battle.

If Arcanine hadn’t consumed a lot of stamina earlier, taking down Scyther would have been no problem at all.

After recalling Beedrill, Ash glanced at the Charizard at his feet: "Charmander, I choose you!"

Boom!

Just then, an explosion sounded.

Ash and the others stopped their battle and looked at the nearby beach, only to see a mechanical Gyarados firing missiles everywhere, causing destruction.

Seeing this scene, Ash knew whose handiwork it was without guessing.

"What happened?" Gary asked, confused. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"I think I heard someone ask what happened?"

"Since you asked so sincerely."

"Then I’ll..."

The Team Rocket Trio’s opening lines came from inside the mechanical Gyarados.

"Gardevoir, capture the people who are disrupting the battle." Ash reluctantly turned to Gardevoir and instructed.

These three guys still owed him two things they hadn’t fulfilled, so Ash didn’t plan to let them exit like shooting stars.

"Gardevoir!"

Gardevoir used its powerful Telekinesis to directly lift the mechanical Gyarados, and then the Team Rocket Trio were poured out like beans.

"Pikachu, use Nuzzle to teach them a lesson.

Gardevoir, watch them and don’t let them run away."

"Pika!"

Pikachu gave the Team Rocket Trio a wicked smile, and faint electricity crackled on its cheeks.

Zzzzt!

"So... so numb~"

The Team Rocket Trio instantly turned scorched black.

After dealing with Team Rockets, Ash looked at Gary: "Gary, let’s continue!"

"No more fighting, my mood has been ruined."

Gary recalled Scyther and tried to slip away with his hands in his pockets.

He knew when to quit.

By stopping the battle now, he saved face.

Although it was a two-on-one, he still won, so by rounding up, it was still equivalent to Ash losing to him!
