Chapter 28: First Battle with Team Rocket
(Third Update!!! New book seeking collections and flowers!)
“What? You’ll never get away with this!” Misty sounded a bit annoyed. Stealing other people’s Pokémon was something that angered her the most.
“Little girl, what can you do on your own?” Hearing Misty’s words, Jessie and James across from her completely ignored her.
“Nurse Joy, have my Pokémon recovered?” Ash also looked at Nurse Joy and asked.
“They’ve recovered their spirits, but they’re still inside!”
“Humph! This Pokémon Center should have a lot of Pokémon, don’t interfere with our business. Go, Arbok!”
“Koffing, use Smokescreen!!”
Jessie and James had already launched their attack. Koffing immediately released thick smoke, and Arbok took advantage of the cover and charged directly at Ash and the others.
“Get out of the way!” Ash saw this and pushed Misty and Nurse Joy, Arbok collided directly into the counter, the entire counter table shattered, and it took advantage of the opportunity to bite the wires below the table.
“Nurse Joy, take us to get back the Pokémon.” Ash said to Joy.
“Okay!” Joy didn’t know what to do now, after all, she was just a doctor, not good at fighting, seeing Ash and Misty were both Trainers, she could only rely on them now.
She quickly led Ash and Misty into the passageway behind the counter, and Jessie and James also knew that if they wanted to find the Pokémon here, they had to follow Nurse Joy. They immediately ordered Arbok and Koffing to follow them.
Soon, Nurse Joy led Ash to the back medical room, where there were many Poké Balls, and Pikachu was also inside.
“Pika!!” Seeing Ash, Pikachu excitedly jumped down from the table.
“Pikachu, we’re going to fight.” Seeing Pikachu coming towards him, Ash’s expression immediately turned serious.
Seeing Ash’s expression, Pikachu immediately understood and ran to Ash’s direction, making preparations to fight.
Only Pikachu could be used now, Magikarp, let alone that his fighting power wasn’t enough now, even if Magikarp could fight now, there was no water here.
Click!!!
At this moment, the lights in the room suddenly dimmed, and the lights turned off.
“Ah! What happened?” Misty looked at this scene and was a little panicked.
“It must be the wires that are damaged, it’s okay, we have a backup generator!” Nurse Joy didn’t worry when she saw this. Every Pokémon Center would prepare a backup generator to deal with emergencies.
Otherwise, it would be dangerous if the power went out while treating some seriously injured Pokémon. The generator in the medical room immediately started up, and a group of Pikachu were seen standing on the conveyor belt above the generator, as if they were standing on a treadmill.
They formed a circle and simultaneously released electrical power upwards, directly transmitting power to the entire center. Soon, the room lit up again.
“I’ll send the Poké Balls to other cities first, can you help me buy some time?”
Although Ash and Misty were there, Nurse Joy was still a little worried. To be safe, it was better to send the Poké Balls away first.
Bang!!!!
At this moment, a puff of smoke seeped in from the gap at the door, followed by a loud bang. Koffing was seen charging in while billowing smoke, using its Tackle, the entire door was shattered.
“Pikachu, Thunder!”
When Ash saw Koffing, he didn’t waste any time. As soon as he saw Koffing, he directly launched an attack first.
“Pika, Pika, Pika, Pika! Pika!!”
Bang!!
Pikachu charged forward, with silver flashes on its body, its speed increased, in a flash that Koffing couldn’t react to, it directly collided head-on with Koffing.
As soon as it entered the medical room, it was knocked away. Ash followed suit, Misty right behind him.
Jessie and James, who were originally about to enter the medical room, just arrived and saw something flying out of the smoke, the two of them instinctively dodged.
Koffing was seen directly hitting the wall behind, and then Pikachu and Ash emerged from the smoke.
“I’ll be your opponent!” Ash looked at the two of them and chuckled lightly, challenging them.
“You little brat, you dare spoil our fun.” Jessie and James were furious, their noses were askew, the other ordinary Trainers outside had already been scared away, but this little brat dared to stop them.
“The Poké Balls are all inside. If you want them, you have to defeat me first.” Ash looked at the two of them with confidence.
“Ash, I’ll help you!” At this time, Misty also came to Ash’s side and took out her Poké Ball, she had already found her Poké Ball.
“No need, go help Nurse Joy.”
“But…”
“Don’t worry, I’ll handle it!” Ash looked at Misty and responded with determination in his eyes.
Seeing Ash’s confident look, Misty was stunned for a moment. Although she was still a little worried, seeing Ash’s confident look, her worries gradually disappeared.
“Okay, you be careful.”
“You arrogant little brat, you dare underestimate us. Arbok, give him a taste of your bite!” Seeing that Ash actually refused Misty’s help and planned to take on them both alone, Jessie felt insulted, and immediately gave an order.
Arbok rushed towards Pikachu, opening its jaws, the sharp teeth in its mouth emitted silver light, directly pouncing on it.
“Pikachu, Quick Attack!” Ash calmly responded.
At his command, Pikachu charged forward, unlike the instantaneous burst of attack of Thunder, Quick Attack didn’t have any killing power, but it could instantly increase Pikachu’s speed.
It ran forward along the passageway, Pikachu’s figure flickered left and right, its speed was so fast that Arbok couldn’t tell which direction Pikachu was attacking from.
Pikachu dashed in front of Arbok, jumped high, skipped over Arbok’s head, and landed behind it.
