"Iron Rhino, use Horn Attack!"
The smoke was blown away, and at the same time, the bald man also threw out his Poké Ball. With a bang, a heavy sound landed.
A Pokémon covered in gray armor, resembling a rhinoceros, appeared before them. It was Iron Rhino.
Iron Rhino was covered in impenetrable armor, its defensive power was quite astonishing. Its limbs, although short, were fast when it charged. The most deadly part was the rhinoceros horn on its head.
The moment the bald man released Iron Rhino, he issued a command. The Iron Rhino's horn instantly flashed with silver light, and it charged toward Team Rocket.
Its heavy body trampled on the ground, creating a heavy rumble in the cave.
"Vaporeon, quickly dodge!!" Seeing Iron Rhino's fierce momentum, Kojiro hurriedly told Vaporeon to dodge. Vaporeon, upon hearing this, immediately rose from the air.
"Arbok, use Poison Sting!!" On the other side, Arbok couldn't fly. Musashi was quite tough. Seeing Iron Rhino charging, she commanded Arbok to attack.
Arbok opened its bloody maw, spewing out purple needles like a rain storm toward Iron Rhino.
"Humph! Such an attack is useless against my Iron Rhino."
The bald man was not afraid in the slightest. Iron Rhino was a Rock and Ground-type Pokémon, perfect for countering Poison-type Pokémon. Poison attacks were simply tickling it.
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!!!!
The Poison Stings struck Iron Rhino's body. As Iron Rhino charged forward, it directly bounced all the Poison Stings away.
"Nani???"
Bang!!!!
Musashi displayed a surprised expression, but before she could react, Iron Rhino had already collided with her. The horn directly hit Arbok, and Arbok let out a painful cry, being thrown away.
It crashed against a nearby rock. This rock happened to be where Ash and the others were hiding, but they weren't exposed. They were carefully observing the situation.
However, judging by the current situation, it was clear that Musashi and Kojiro were at a disadvantage. They were both using Poison-type Pokémon, and they were directly sent to the Iron Rhino's mouth.
"Espeon, use Psychic!!"
At the same time, the flat-headed man also started to act. Upon hearing his command, Espeon's large eyes emitted a blue light, locking onto Vaporeon.
As Vaporeon ascended into the air, a strange blue light enveloped its body. Afterwards, it lost control.
Bang!!!
Under Espeon's control, Vaporeon was propelled by an invisible force, rapidly rising into the air, then crashing against the ceiling of the cave.
Before it could escape, it was once again pulled by this force, pulled out of the deep pit it had crashed into, then flung away, flying in the same direction as Arbok.
Bang!!
It directly collided with Arbok, then the two Pokémon fell from the rock.
"Really, what the heck are you two doing?" Meowth couldn't help but speak, seeing this scene.
"Don't just stand there and talk without doing anything, get in there yourself!" Musashi saw that Arbok and Vaporeon were both knocked down, and upon hearing Meowth's words, she directly grabbed Meowth and threw it forward.
"Meow~~~ I'm not ready! In that case, watch my Crazy Scratch!"
Meowth was a little panicked in the air, but it quickly recovered. It spread its hands, its sharp claws extended, and it pounced towards the front.
However, the Iron Rhino in front simply stood there with a lazy gaze, unmoving.
Clack, clack, clack!!!
"Meow!!! It hurts Meow!" However, the moment its claws landed, they hit Iron Rhino's armor, instantly producing a cracking sound, followed by a heart-wrenching scream.
It wasn't Iron Rhino, but Meowth. Its claws were shattered, its hands puffed up like balloons, and tears immediately welled up in its eyes.
Kojiro and Musashi were speechless. Who was the real waste here?
"Since you don't intend to trade, then don't blame us!" The flat-headed man said coldly to Musashi and Kojiro.
Musashi and Kojiro were taken aback when they heard this, their faces filled with fear. They didn't expect these two guys to be so powerful.
"Espeon, use..."
Pi~Pi~Pi~~
Suddenly, a sound came from behind the two poachers, then they saw a nimble figure gradually approaching, bouncing lightly in the air, landing on the ground, then leaping again.
It was as if it were walking in space, as if its body had no gravity, bouncing forward step by step.
"It's Pippi!!"
Seeing the bouncing figure, the chubby, fluffy appearance like a plush toy, the adorable look that would make any girl melt, instantly drew attention. This was the target of the two poachers.
"Hmm? That's a Moon Stone!!" Team Rocket also noticed, but they weren't paying attention to Pippi, but to what Pippi was holding.
At this moment, Pippi was holding a stone that resembled a gem. It looked rough, but they instantly recognized it. It was a Moon Stone.
"Good luck. Besides Pippi, there's also a Moon Stone, that's worth a lot of money!" The two poachers also discovered the Moon Stone, and greed flickered in their eyes.
"Espeon, use Shadow Ball!" The flat-headed man attacked without hesitation. Upon hearing his command, Espeon immediately turned toward Pippi, and a colorful light emerged from the tip of its horn.
It was released, and the light around it constantly flashed with various triangular, circular, and square lights, looking like pixels from a video game.
Boom!! Bang!!
Pippi was in the middle of jumping when Espeon's attack arrived. It couldn't dodge in time. The light beam struck Pippi's landing point, causing a violent explosion.
Pi!!!
