Previously in the Pokémon Firefighting Contest, there was also Wooper's Breeder round.
Wobbuffet, the fruit god, also has similar performance.
It seems that from now on, Ash feels it is necessary to make things clear with this guy.
Although it jumps out to add to the atmosphere, it is harmless.
But I am afraid that this guy will show up at the wrong occasion and at the wrong time.
If it was a group of sleeping Onix, everyone was passing by quietly.
As a result, this guy suddenly jumped out and made such a noise.
If Onix is woken up, it will be unnecessary trouble~~~
After putting Wobbuffet away, Ash planned to wait for the right environment to have a good talk with it.
After leaving the Onix Cave, they also came to a forest.
Prepare to take a short break before heading to the next city.
However, there seemed to be some uneasy fellows in this forest.
"I got you~~~"
With his keen perception, Ash grabbed the guy who was about to steal their backpacks and food.
"Why do you have to be a Thief when you can do anything else~~~"
Ash smiled and looked at the Pokémon that he had held upside down and was struggling:
"But that's right. Considering your type and personality, it's reasonable for you to choose to steal things~~~"
At this moment, what Ash was holding in his hand was a black puppy Pokémon.
It has two bone-like objects on its back, its abdomen and mouth are orange, there is a bone-like object on each ankle, and it has a short and thick tail.
"Houndour is a dark Pokémon that uses various Growls to contact its partners and corner its prey. Its excellent teamwork ability is second to none among Pokémon."
Rotom Pokédex floated by and recorded it in due time.
Well, the Pokémon that Ash caught was this Pokémon Houndour.
And~~~
"It looks like there are more than one 'August 17'."
Not only the one in Ash's hand, but several other Houndours also slowly walked out from the surrounding bushes.
They all bared their teeth, looking at Ash with ferocious and hostile expressions.
Houndour is good at cooperating with partners and has great intelligence. He can use various Growls to communicate with partners and convey his feelings.
"Ooooooooooooooo!!"
Suddenly, a Howl was heard, and several Houndours followed suit, raising their heads and howling together.
Houndours will send out different types of Growls when communicating with their partners and chasing prey.
It will use Growl, which only its companions can understand, to determine their respective positions while chasing its prey and cornering it.
They are able to use excellent teamwork to corner their prey and then kill them.
Colleagues also have the characteristics of dogs. If they can become companions, they will obey the Trainer's orders very well.
"If we work together, then this also means~~~"
Ash looked in the direction where the Howl sound first came from.
Then I saw a more majestic Houndour standing on a small hill in the back.
His body was covered with scars from the fight, and there was an obvious scar at the corner of his eye.
He has a proud posture and looks very powerful.
At this time, it was also looking down at the scene happening in the forest.
"This group of Houndours must have a leader!!"
There is no doubt that it is the one who stands at the highest point, overlooking everything, and giving orders to the other Rubies below through the howling Growl.
The more majestic and robust Houndour is the leader of this group of Houndours!!
"Roar~"
Upon hearing the order from the big boss Houndour, the Houndour caught by Ash suddenly opened his mouth.
A blazing flame also rushed directly towards Ash.
"You even knew to order your men to use this method of attacking the Trainer to escape~~~"
Ash was well prepared and threw Houndour away before he could attack.
"You are quite intelligent, but you just can't see the situation clearly~~~"
Ash's eyes were looking over the eldest Houndour.
Information about it also appeared in front of me:
[Pokémon: Houndour]
[Gender: Female]
[Trainer: None]
[Attribute: evil, fire]
[Ability: Flash Fire (Pokémon with this ability are not affected by Fire-Type moves. When hit by a Fire-Type move, their Attack and Special Attack are ×1.5. This ability can also be triggered when the Pokémon with this ability is in a Frozen Contest Condition.)]
[Skills: Leer, Ember, Oil Mist, Roar, Bite, Beat Up, Burn, Fire Fang, Flamethrower...]
[Carrying things: None]
[Potential: Elite]
[Training suggestions: .........
[Entries: The roar of the three-headed dog (gold), the loyal gatekeeper (gold), the poisonous fire of the abyss that burns everything (purple), the aura of the boss (purple). ]
[Hell Roar of the Three-Headed Dog (Gold)]: The prototype is the three-headed dog of hell.
Its characteristic is its terrifying howl.
After hearing its terrifying howl, Pokémon will tremble all over.
In the past, people imagined its terrifying howl as the call of the god of death from hell, and thought it was a messenger from hell and were afraid of it.
Launching an attack will make Rival retreat in fear, and Rival's strength will decrease by 50%.
And every time you launch an attack, there is a 20% chance that it will be in the Contest Condition and unable to act.
[Loyal Gatekeeper (Gold)]: Good at cooperating with partners. If they become partners, they will obey the Trainer's orders very much. They will obey the Trainer's orders completely, and under the Trainer's command, their own abilities will increase by 50%.
[Abyss Poison Fire That Burns Everything (Purple)]: The flames it spits out from its mouth are mixed with toxins, which have a pungent smell.
It can spit up the flames mixed with toxins to cause Rival.
If you are burned by the flames it spits out from its mouth, the wound will hurt no matter how long it takes.
The power and effect of Fire Type skills are increased by 30%, Fire Type skills will definitely burn, and the pain caused by burning is increased by 30%.
[Boss's Aura (Purple)]: The leader will be determined through the mutual fighting between partners.
After becoming the leader, he will command all members to attack.
After being captured by the Trainer, he will mainly follow the Trainer's orders.
The more Pokémons there are, the more times the moves can attack, and the more powerful the effect will be.
With two gold and two purple items, the talents of this Houndour are surprisingly good.
Items that reduce Rival's strength can also make Rival fall into the Cowardly Contest Condition with a high probability.
He also obeys Trainer's orders and commands very well, and his Fire Type attack effects are also very good~~~
Moreover, Pokémon like Houndour are said to be dark Pokémon, but it also depends on who the Trainer is.
Ash did remember it, in the original storyline.
Once again, Ash and his crew were suddenly attacked by Team Rocket. Although they managed to drive Team Rocket away, Togepi disappeared.
The lost Togepi met a Houndoom in the forest.
This is Houndoom, raised by a rancher, who has been taking good care of and comforting Togepi along the way.
And Help it back to Ash and the others.
It can be seen that Pokémon does have its own nature, but if it follows a very good Trainer, it will also change accordingly.
"Then this Houndour is a very good one..."
Ash pressed down the brim of his hat, "I have decided to conquer you!"
Well, this Houndour boss, no, it should be said that she is the eldest sister, and she is also a rare female Pokémon.
"Go ahead, Heracross."
Ash is released daily, this is a very useful Heracross.
"Heracross, use Pin Missile on the Houndour at the top."
"Heracross~!!"
This powerful rhinoceros beetle had already raised his arm very familiarly.
"Ouch~!"
At this moment, the situation was becoming increasingly intense and it was time to start a real battle.
On the hillside, the big sister Houndour also howled, calling on the other Houndours to attack.
Beep~!!
All of a sudden, all four Houndours spewed fire at Ash from different angles, and shot out Flamethrower!!
And for this~
"Nice Flamethrower."
Ash was still commenting thoughtfully, "But unfortunately, the power is still a little lacking."
He stood there motionless, seemingly not caring at all about the Flamethrower's attack.
Of course, the power of these Flamethrower's special moves may not be very strong, but this is after all a simultaneous attack of several Flamethrowers.
Ash was still able to remain calm, of course, because~
Bang!
"Ss ...
It has a Mega Meat Shield that provides absolute defense!!
Wobbuffet jumped out of the Pokémon ball, howled, and stood in front of Ash.
At the same time, the dazzling bright red luster on the body appeared.
Well, Ash also had a good talk with Wobbuffet during this time.
It also asked Wobbuffet to guarantee that Solaceon would not jump out on weekdays.
But for Ash to say this, it was a bit disappointing.
Then, Ash told him that he could jump out and use [Counter] and [Mirror Coat] when he was about to be attacked.
So, this time Wobbuffet jumped out obediently.
Crash~!!
The Flamethrower that was originally spurting out, after hitting Wobbuffet, immediately returned at an even faster speed!!
Boom~!!
The Houndours didn't even have time to react before they were all engulfed in their own flames.
"Ouch?!!"
On the hillside, the big sister Houndour's eyes suddenly changed when she saw this, and she was about to rush down howling.
But obviously~~~
"Hera~Cross!!"
Heracross' Pin Missile arrives first!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~Boom!!
Pin Missile seemed to have calculated the moves of the big sister Houndour.
It hit the target with perfect accuracy!!
Houndour has both Fire Type and Dark Type attributes. Bug Type's moves are restrained by Fire Type, but they can also restrain Dark Type.
Therefore, the effect of this move is neither outstanding nor weak, just ordinary.
However, the ordinary attacks launched by Heracross cannot be simply summarized~~~
Boom!
A series of Pin Missile explosions also sounded in mid-air.
From the thick black smoke that was produced, the figure of Sister Xilubi also slowly fell down.
"Go, Pokémon Ball!"
Ash raised his hand and threw a Pokémon ball towards it, and it hit it accurately.
Whoosh~Snap.
The Pokéball turns it into
After a ray of red light was absorbed inside, it also fell to the ground.
Ding~
Ding~
Buzz~!!
After shaking twice symbolically, the Pokémon ball stopped moving completely.
"The third Pokémon of the Johto Region Region, Houndour, Kuang!"
Ash snapped his fingers, and Pikachu took the initiative to step forward and gave Houndour's Pokémon ball to him.
"So, stealing is a very bad behavior~~~"
Ash also looked around and saw the other Houndours who were injured by the rebound of his Flamethrower and fell to the ground half-dead.
After thinking about it for a while, I still had some kindness:
"It's because your big sister is following me now. Otherwise, who would care about you~~~"
Ash called out to Heracross and asked it to carry two Houndours on one arm. It was impossible to tell whether they were Black on the body or burnt Black. It lifted up all four Houndours.
"Be a good person to the end, I will send all of you to the Pokémon Center for treatment~~~"
Of course, Ash has not forgotten that there is a sick and injured Houndour in the Houndour's lair.
The reason why this group of Houndours ran out to steal things and food was because one of their companion Houndours was unable to move.
And his body is very weak.
When Ash and his group, as well as Heracross and the other four Houndours, found the Houndours' nest.
It just so happened that a Golem attacked the nest and the Houndour inside.
"Pikachu, use your Oreburgh tail to knock the Golem away."
"Pikachu!"
Pikachu swung its Oreburgh-colored tail violently, and whipped the Golem away like it was a baseball.
"Huff~Huff~"
The sick Houndour who was holding back could no longer hold on after seeing the Golem being knocked away, and fell directly to the ground.
Seeing this, Xiaogang immediately stepped forward to check on the Houndour.
"Its leg is injured..."
Houndour's foot had obvious injuries, "and the wound seemed to be infected with bacteria.
"Disinfection must be done quickly!!"
Xiao Gang did what he said. He immediately took out the healing spray and started treating Houndour.
But doing so could only barely stop Houndour's injuries from getting worse.
This is not a long-term solution. If you really want it to recover, you need to take it to the Pokémon Center and receive normal treatment.
So~
"Thank you for your help, Heracross."
Ash placed the Houndour on the big horn of Heracross.
Heracross:""
Good fellow, it is now covered with Houndour accessories.
It's really not easy to earn some nectar to eat these days.
But there was no way, it had to obey Ash's orders obediently while Troy Longma carried the luggage diligently.
Well, maybe it would be more appropriate to say Sha Wujing~~~
Afterwards, carried by Heracross, Ash and his party quickly arrived at a nearby town.
We found the Pokémon Center there and handed the group of Houndours over to Nurse Joy.
"Excuse me, Miss Yin Yi.
"It's nothing."
Nurse Joy didn't say much when she saw this. She took Chansey and pushed the Houndours into the operating room.
And with Nurse Joy taking action, the safety of these Houndours will naturally be no problem at all.
"These children have been living in the surrounding forests. They usually don't bother passing Trainers or people from the city."
Nurse Joy came out of the operating room and finished the treatment and explained to Xiao Xiaozhi and others:
"It's just that because they often act in groups, other Pokémon can easily mistake them for invading their territory, so they often target them."
"This time, they must have been injured in a battle with other Pokémon, so they had no choice but to steal other people's things..."
Nurse Joy also knew this group of Houndours, so she explained everything to Ash.
"I know."
Ash nodded. In the original storyline, this group of Houndours used a military-style team combat style.
Although they are all wild Pokémon, they have a particularly chivalrous and bandit-like style of behavior.
Otherwise, they were really evil Pokémon, and Ash wasn't interested in them.
Then, after a night of treatment.
All Houndour members have recovered their contest conditions and are full of energy.
