With Bulbasaur’s strength alone, it was difficult to stop Team Rocket from using their giant machine to capture Weedle, Paras, and the others, one by one, into cages.
At this time, Ash joined the battle with Pikachu and Caterpie.
First, he had Caterpie use its String Shot to wrap around the mechanical arms layer by layer, thereby restraining the opponent’s movements.
Then, Pikachu's Thunderbolt and Bulbasaur's Razor Leaf combined to once again send the three members of Team Rocket flying off into the sky like meteors.
After ending this farce, Ash and the others officially said goodbye to May.
“Ash, could you please take Bulbasaur with you?”
Although, in the moment when Ash and Bulbasaur fought side-by-side, the audience had already guessed how things would develop.
But when May actually said these words, the audience finally felt completely relieved.
“But, May, without Bulbasaur, who will protect everyone?”
Misty worried.
May shook her head, “It’s because of Bulbasaur that everyone has become so accustomed to the current peaceful life, which is contradictory to my desire to heal their hearts and return them to nature in the future. And besides…”
Speaking of this, May picked up Bulbasaur and placed it in front of Ash.
“Bulbasaur should go out to see the wider world.”
Ash held his breath, and after a few seconds, he asked with a trembling voice:
“Ca…can I? Bulbasaur.”
Bulbasaur’s eyes flickered slightly, and finally nodded in response with a “Bulu”.
“I caught Bulbasaur!”
Ash, having fulfilled his wish, raised Bulbasaur high above his head and exclaimed excitedly.
The older viewers in front of the television were fine, but the junior high school students, especially the boys, were infected by Ash’s emotions.
They also jumped three feet high with excitement.
Through this episode, Bulbasaur's strength was shown to be truly impressive.
With such a powerful ally on hand, Ash's journey to become a Pokémon Master could be said to have taken another big step forward.
But this was not the end!
Just as Ash was about to return both Bulbasaur and Caterpie to their Poké Balls.
Caterpie’s body suddenly emitted a silvery white light.
And within the light, its body was changing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“This is...Evolution!?”
Misty exclaimed.
...
Upon seeing Caterpie evolve into Metapod, countless viewers who had just been in a state of excitement fell silent once again.
Evolution?
Another new word, huh.
Many people remembered the final forms of the three starters from the opening theme.
They originally thought those were the forms of Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur after they grew up.
Now it seems like those are the "Evolution" forms!
“Alright! Let’s head to Pewter City!”
Gaining two new allies in a single day filled Ash with confidence.
He was already eager to challenge the Pewter Gym.
“Hey! Wait up!”
“Heehee～If you're too slow, I'm gonna ditch you!”
The boy and girl ran through the forest, chasing each other back and forth.
The camera slowly zoomed out, and on the other side of the forest, there was Pewter City, the boy's target!
Episode 3, End!
【I’m going to die without Pokemon to watch, please update tomorrow soon!】
【Looking forward to Ash using his new partner to slaughter everything】
【I have a feeling Team Rocket will appear again, those three are too hilarious】
【A boy who sets out on a journey to become the world’s best, constantly befriending new Pokémon and making new companions along the way, this is simply my dream world】
【I want to ask, where does he get his living expenses from? He didn’t seem to pay anything for food and drink at the Pokémon Center before】
…
Seeing that the ratings for Episode 3 were approaching 12%, Director Li finally let out a long sigh of relief.
Now he could be sure that the mess Su Yihuan had created would not affect Pokémon's performance.
And seeing that the ratings for Episode 3 had already surpassed those of the first episode, Director Li’s perception of Pokémon had also been upgraded from "blockbuster" to "super blockbuster."
After all, many dramas tend to have their peak ratings in the first episode.
Even the "Chinese Paladin 1" starring Su Yihuan five years ago couldn't escape this ironclad law.
…
On the other side.
Su Daoguanren, who was holding a small cat-like figure in his arms, received a phone call.
It was Ms. Joy... no, Tong Liya calling.
She said Tang Ren wanted to sign her and asked if he agreed.
emmm...
Su Yihuan glanced at Naza, who was looking at him with a jealous expression.
He thought to himself, does Tong Liya now occupy Naza's position in the original timeline?
Su Yihuan thought for a moment and told Tong Liya that a 5-year contract would be fine, no need for longer.
Well, currently, Tang Ren still has some influence for 10 years.
After "Chinese Paladin 3", he also churned out blockbuster hits like "Scarlet Heart" and "Xuan Yuan Sword: The Scar of Sky".
As well as "The Great Thief", "The Mystic Nine" and other near-blockbuster hits.
But after 15 years? ... As far as you can run, run.
“Oh…”
Tong Liya responded, and after a few seconds, she sounded a little resentful:
“Can’t I just sign with your company?”
The little sister, who is already 27 years old but only has one representative role, Zhao Feiyan, before receiving "Pokémon", actually lacks a sense of security.
After playing the role of Ms. Joy and witnessing the popularity of the show firsthand.
The little sister couldn’t help but feel a bit impulsive, summed up in two words: ... Want to marry.
Su Laoye blinked twice.
But the problem is that I want to open a game company, not an entertainment company.
PS: Damn it, I forgot to sign up for the recommendation, why do I have to encounter moths every time I start a book.
