Having obtained the Mysterious Amber in Pewter City, Gary was in high spirits. Taking advantage of the early hour, he left the dark gray city.
Next, he only needed to cross Mt. Moon to reach the next city, Cerulean City.
As the currently lowest-ranked Gym in Kanto, where the Gym Leader performed water ballet in a sexy swimsuit every day, to be honest, Gary wasn't looking forward to it at all.
Entering the mountain path, Gary released all his Pokemon.
The terrain and the types of Pokemon inhabiting Mt. Moon were more diverse.
"Listen up, our motto is: within a ten-mile radius, no survivors!"
Gary put his hands on his hips and lectured Scyther and Charmeleon, "Don't even mention Caterpie or Geodude; even if we encounter a Gyarados, it'll have to take two slaps before it leaves. Understand?"
"Oh!" The Three Little Ones responded in unison.
And so, the wild Pokemon along this path suffered greatly.
Upon encountering a large rock, Scyther immediately went in for a Slash.
The rock split in two, revealing a sleeping Geodude, still groggy.
"Wham!" Charmeleon swung his claw and delivered a big hit… Before Geodude could even react, Eevee came in with a Water Gun…
Geodude's eyes rolled back, and it collapsed by the roadside, tears of sorrow welling up. "This is too much bullying!"
Of course, this was still considered good, as Geodude didn't resist.
In the roadside bushes, there originally lived a group of Beedrill. As forest ruffians, this family bullied males and females alike, bowing to no one.
Until they met Gary!
On the forest path, a group of Beedrill fled for their lives. Behind them were Gary and the maniacal Three Little Ones.
Scyther's scythes were smoking from continuous sonic booms.
Charmeleon and Eevee, meanwhile, were using Flamethrower and Ember respectively.
The Beedrill: (??? )? "Don't come any closer!!"
Gary's group: o(dishメ;)o "Don't run!!!"
"Huff huff Still trying to run." After finishing off the last Beedrill, Gary, Eevee, Charmeleon, and Scyther had arrived at the cave entrance at the foot of Mt. Moon.
Passing through here was the fastest way to get to the other side of Mt. Moon and then on to Cerulean City!
"Whoosh!" The sound of nearby water attracted Gary's attention.
"The spring water of Mt. Moon is supposedly famous. I definitely can't miss this." Looking at the cave entrance before him, Gary decided to rest, eat lunch, and then continue onward.
"Scyther, please go find the location of the mountain spring. We'll go fetch some water." Sending Scyther out as a scout to find the water source, Gary began preparing lunch.
When traveling, it was usually thick soup and bread, or in short, a chaotic stew.
This kind of cooking was the most convenient and maximized nutrition.
Large chunks of potatoes, corn, carrots, green beans, plus beef and salmon, seasoned with light salt, and a butter base.
Soon, the aroma of the food wafted far and wide.
Little Eevee and Charmeleon each had a food bowl, squatting in front of the pot, their tails wagging left and right in perfect harmony.
Scyther was very efficient, flying back with a full canteen in no time.
Satisfied, Gary put the Mt. Moon spring water into his backpack and tapped the pot: "Time to eat!"
Although human food didn't provide any special benefits for Pokemon, and eating too much salt could even cause Pokemon to shed fur, Gary still habitually gave his companions a little bit of his own cooking in addition to their regular Pokemon food.
Eating from the same pot felt good.
Dividing the food into three portions, Eevee and Charmeleon each got a bowl, and Scyther got a basin.
Gary picked up his own bowl, and the Three Little Ones looked at him eagerly.
"Alright, eat up." Gary nodded, and the Three Little Ones immediately began to devour their food.
Gary blew on his thick soup before bringing it to his mouth, savoring it in small sips.
"Mmm Rich and fragrant It was indeed worth spending time learning to cook." Gary nodded in satisfaction.
Speaking of which, Gary had originally planned to bring a chef. With Gary's looks, the beautiful women in Pallet Town who could cook and were willing to travel with him could line up from Oak Laboratory to Mt. Hideaway…
However, after thinking about his goals, Gary decided to be self-sufficient.
After all, it would be hard not to get into trouble with a charming, curvaceous, and beautiful girl following him every day…
"You three, eat slowly, there's still more in the pot." Looking at Charmeleon and Scyther's eating habits, Gary felt a little embarrassed.
"I haven't withheld your food, so why do you always bury your heads in your food bowls every time you eat?"
"Ooh ooh!"
"What!"
While correcting his Pokemon's eating habits, two uninvited guests arrived at Gary's campsite.
A Nidoran♂ led a Nidoran♀ swaggering out, gesticulating fiercely at Eevee.
"Yo~ What's this guy's deal?" Gary looked over with interest.
Nidoran♂ gestured at Eevee's food bowl, and Gary immediately understood.
"Fight me, and if you lose, you give me your food!"
"Well, this guy's got some guts~" Gary stood up and looked behind Nidoran♂. A Nidoran♀ with big, blinking eyes followed closely behind him.
Unlike the battle-scarred Nidoran♂, this Nidoran♀ had shiny, lustrous fur, clearly indicating she was well-loved.
"A princess and a knight? Interesting." Gary smiled slightly, "Charmeleon, go have a few rounds with him!"
"Awoo~" After a satisfied burp, Charmeleon stood up.
Seeing Charmeleon, who was several sizes larger than himself, Nidoran♂ subconsciously shielded the Nidoran♀ behind him.
"Hehe, don't be afraid. If you win, I'll treat you to a meal. If you lose~ none of you will escape!" Gary raised an eyebrow, smiling.
"Ooh ooh!" Hearing this, Nidoran♂ panicked. He only wanted to find some food for his princess, not lose Nidoran♀ to someone else!
Turning around, Nidoran♂ tried to escape with Nidoran♀.
"Whoosh!" A white light flashed, and a gully appeared on the ground. Scyther stood calmly behind the two little ones.
"You think you can just come and go as you please? Do you think my campsite is that easy to enter?" Gary crossed his arms, looking at Nidoran♂.
Gary had taken a moment to appraise them earlier; both little ones had Elite-level potential. If trained well, they would be good fighters.
Of course, the most important thing was that since these two were a couple, his own team certainly had to be complete.
Nidoran♂ looked around and realized he couldn't escape. He could only muster his courage and approach Charmeleon.
Nidoran♀ also looked at Gary timidly.
Gary took out a handful of Pokemon food and held it out. The little one cautiously approached Gary, then started eating directly.
"Alright, you two, begin." Gary waved his hand, signaling Charmeleon, "Hurry up, we still need to cross Mt. Moon."
Charmeleon nodded, then beckoned Nidoran♂ with a finger.
"Ooh ooh!" Nidoran♂ raised the horn on his head and abruptly charged at Charmeleon.
Attacking with the horn on its head was Nidoran♂'s most common attack method.
However, Charmeleon wouldn't give him a chance to get close.
"Boom!" Charmeleon opened his mouth directly, unleashing Flamethrower.
The scorching flames easily knocked Nidoran♂ to the ground. Nidoran♂ rolled several times in a sorry state before finally getting back up.
"Nini!" Seeing Nidoran♂ injured, Nidoran♀ became anxious. She stopped eating and ran to Nidoran♂'s side, calling out worriedly.
"Ooh ooh~" Nidoran♂ pushed Nidoran♀ aside and turned back to face Charmeleon.
Looking at Nidoran♂'s determined gaze, Charmeleon nodded in admiration, then spread his arms, signaling for the opponent to continue.
Nidoran♂ pushed off with his hind legs, leaping up abruptly, and kicked powerfully at Charmeleon with his strong hind legs.
Double Kick!
"Thwack!" Charmeleon blocked with crossed arms, stepping back slightly, then his right claw surged with Dragon-type energy, and a green Dragon Claw swept through the air.
"Bang!!" Nidoran♂ was sent flying backward again, this time directly crashing into a tree.
Seeing the half-dead Nidoran♂, Nidoran♀ rushed forward again, tears in her eyes, blocking Charmeleon and crying out continuously.
She seemed to be saying, "Don't hit him anymore…"
Charmeleon looked at Gary helplessly. What should he do? If he kept fighting, he would become the bad guy.
Gary said to Nidoran♂ with a meaningful look, "Can you still fight? If you can't, I'll take Nidoran♀ away!"
"Ooh!!" Nidoran♂ struggled to his feet, then roared at the sky, and a white light burst forth instantly.
He evolved!!
Gary's smile widened. He was indeed a child with potential.
When the evolution light faded, a Nidorino with thicker limbs and a more robust physique appeared.
"Very good, come again!" Gary nodded and said.
Pawing at the ground with his front feet, Nidorino charged at Charmeleon again!
This time, Gary spoke up to command: "Dragon Rage!"
"Awoo!" The flames on Charmeleon's tail suddenly surged, and then a stream of blue dragon fire erupted.
"Boom!!" Dragon Rage exploded!
Nidorino was undoubtedly knocked down in one blow. Gary didn't hesitate: "Go, poké ball."
The poké ball fell, and Nidorino was drawn into the ball. The warning light flashed twice, then locked with a click.
Gary officially captured Nidorino.
Nidoran♀ looked at the poké ball in front of her in confusion, anxiously pawing at the object: "Nini? (Where's my husband?)"
Gary took out another poké ball and squatted in front of Nidoran♀: "Nidorino will be my partner from now on. How about it, let's go together? You won't have to sleep rough anymore. I'll give you a home."
Nidoran♀ tilted her head and thought about it. It seemed like there was no loss, so she readily bumped the switch of the poké ball with her head, voluntarily entering Gary's poké ball.
Having captured Nidorino and Nidoran♀, Gary no longer lingered. He recalled Eevee and Scyther to their poké balls and, taking Charmeleon with him, prepared to cross the Mt. Moon cave.
Looking at the dark cave, Gary frowned. "There won't be any bats in here, will there?"…
"Flap flap flap…" Just as Gary thought this, a group of Zubat flew out.
Gary activated his appraisal skill and scanned them. Good heavens, they were all common, the best having only Gym-level potential.
He decisively gave up on these little darlings. Gary grabbed Charmeleon's tail: "Let's go, Dragon Bro."
Charmeleon's mouth twitched. He pulled his tail away, then picked himself up and walked ahead.
Gary pouted: "Stingy… you're still holding it in your hand…"
Under the illumination of the firelight, Gary and Charmeleon ventured into the depths of Mt. Moon.
Originally, Gary's plan was to quickly cross Mt. Moon and then rest in Cerulean City.
However, plans change. Having captured Nidorino and Nidoran♀, Gary altered his route.
In the cave at the summit of Mt. Moon, there was a top-grade Moon Stone, a huge one!
For Nidorino and Nidoran♀'s future evolutions, Gary had to get two pieces of high-quality Moon Stone scraps.
And so, one person and one dragon explored their surroundings while making their way to the summit of Mt. Moon.
