Pokemon: Master of tactics

Chapter 42 - Pokemon Master Of Tactics: 42



Viridian Forest.

A young man with a Ralts on his shoulder and two Pokemon next to him, walked slowly deeper into the forest. ​​

Alex had suppressed his thoughts about his first murder. He didn't think about it anymore and focused on something else. He didn't know that Ralts had supported him with her psychic powers. Ralts can slightly affect the emotions of Pokemon and humans. While it can't make Alex happy, it can suppress Alex's conflicted feelings a little.

After 10 minutes, Alex had only met weak Pokemon that ran away immediately. Alex looked at the info from these Pokemon and found that they all had normal potential.

Suddenly Alex heard Golbat yell. Golbat must have discovered a Pokemon. Alex and his Pokemon slowly walked towards the Pokemon.

Alex then saw an Arbok eating a Rattata.

------------------------

Pokémon: Arbok

LV: 25

Type: Poison

Abilities: Intimidate

Gender: Female

Potential: bronze

Move: Poison Sting, Wrap, Leer, Acid, Bite, Haze, Glare, Poison Jab

---------------------

Alex said seriously, "Golbat, this fight is yours. Fight as you want. Scyther you stay here and protect me and Ralts."

Golbat was happy that he was allowed to fight first. He flew quietly behind Arbok and used Shadow Ball. Golbat's Shadow Ball is already on the expert rank. It is much stronger than normal Shadow Balls.

Arbok suddenly felt that she was in danger and tried to evade it. This wild Arbok had very good instincts but Arbok was still hit by the Shadow Ball.

Arbok saw a Golbat attack her and immediately got mad. She saw that this Golbat was roughly the same LV as she was and still attacked her.

In the wild, Pokémon of similar strength don't usually fight each other. There were several reasons. But the most important reason is that after the fight, even the winner is usually seriously injured and a very injured Pokemon in the wild very rarely survives.

Arbok thought that this Golbat was thinking that it could defeat her without injuries and got very angry. Arbok used Glare.

Golbat flinched and suddenly felt that he could not move towards Arbok. It feels like an invisible force is pushing him to Arbok. He felt weak.It was the effect of Intimidate and Glare. His attack power was lowered a bit and speed was reduced. He was paralyzed. Although he could still move, there is 25% chance in battle that he won't be able to perform his move. He felt that he was weaker than originally. And that his attack won't be at his peak power, but all of this didn't matter.

He flew towards Arbok and used Wing Attack. Arbok was ready to go into close combat too. She used poison jab.

Alex was looking at the fight and was angry that Golbat is fighting so arrogantly. He could have used Taunt and then use the hit and run tactics to easily defeat Arbok, but he preferred to fight like that. Due to his negligence and arrogance, he was paralyzed.

After 3 minutes of clumsy close combat, Arbok was defeated. Golbat stood there arrogantly with a moderately bad injury.

Arbok had never received any training and was weaker than Golbat in close combat. Also, her strongest attack is ineffective against Golbat.

Golbat was also not very strong in close combat and suffered a lot of damage from Arbok.

Alex took out a super potion and healed Arbok who was badly injured. Then he took a Pokeball and caught Arbok with it.

He said coldly to Golbat, "Golbat, did you learned nothing with your fight against Scyther? Why are you fighting so foolishly?"

Alex explained to Golbat for 5 minutes how badly he had fought. He also said that if he fought stupidly again, he would be punished.

Golbat was a bit confused. He thought he would be praised by his trainer for winning, but he was scolded instead. Although he was a bit angry, he understood what Alex meant. He was a bit stupid in the fight right now.

Alex quietly took a super potion and healed Golbat. Even though he was mad at Golbat, Alex still healed him. A family is a family after all.

Golbat was confused and happy that Alex was still healing him. He understood Alex a little better now. Although he yelled at him, it was for his betterment.

Scyther watched with glee as Golbat was being yelled at and said, "Haha! How can you get hurt by such a weak Pokemon?"

Golbat said coldly, "Shut up. I just wanted to try out how you fight and I have to say that only fools fight like that."

Alex noticed that both Scyther and Golbat were trash-talking again and ignored it. He won't do anything as long as they don't cross the line.

After Golbat is fit again, they went further into the forest.

Alex and his pokemon went on for 30 minutes until Golbat discovered another Pokemon.

Many Caterpies and Weedles were spread out on a tree. Almost all of them had normal potential.

But 3 Caterpie and 2 Weedle were bronze. There was also a Silver Caterpie.

------------------------

Pokémon: Caterpie

LV: 5

Type: Bug

Abilities: Shield Dust

Gender: Female

Potential: Silver

Moves: String Shot, Tackle

--------------------------

Alex thought, "Caterpie? Hmm...Do I want a Caterpie as a Pokemon? Not really. Although it's not weak, it's not very strong either. I don't have that much money to catch a Pokemon that I don't need. I should rather sell it."

If a normal trainer heard Alex's thoughts, he would be senseless. For a normal strong trainer, a Silver Pokemon is almost always a trump card. Even elite trainers usually only have one or two silver Pokemon on their team.

Alex said, "Ralts, are you ready for your first fight ?"

Ralts gave Alex a serious look and nodded.

Alex went to the Caterpie and said, "Caterpie, can you fight my Ralts? If you win, I will give you this Excellent Bug-Type Food. But if I win, I can catch you."

Caterpie is usually a peaceful Pokemon. Alex doesn't want to force it into a fight and then catch it without permission. Although this bet is unfair for Caterpie, Caterpie can still choose her fate.

Caterpie saw the Excellent Bug-Type Food and nodded to Alex.

She thought that she would easily win against that Ralts that seemed like it had never fought before.

Alex said, "Ok Ralts, get ready. It starts in 3,2,1, Go!"

Ralts was lightly trained by Alex for 10 days and knew how to fight properly. It immediately used Confusion to hurt the Caterpie.

Caterpie couldn't evade and was hit. It then used tackle as counter attack.

Ralts tried to evade it but was still hit by it. Ralts, who felt pain for the first time, wanted to cry. But as soon as she felt the feelings of her father, she pulled herself together again. Ralts sensed pride, fear, excitement and affection from Alex.

Alex saw that Ralts wanted to fight the pain and was very proud of Ralts.

He said, "Ralts use Disable and then use Confusion as often as you can."

Ralts used Disable. Thus Caterpie couldn't use tackle for the next few turns. Caterpie could only use String Shot now. But Since it is only at Beginner Rank, it can only hold her in one place. Caterpie didn't have enough strength to do anything else to Ralts. So Ralts kept on using confusion on Caterpie, which resulted in an easy win.
