Generally speaking, there will not be cross-regional invasions of foreign Pokémon. The reason is simple: wild Pokémon usually do not have the ability to migrate such a long distance, and even if they have owners, being able to follow their trainers from one area to another proves that they have developed feelings for their trainers and will not be easily abandoned.
No, now is not the time to popularize this knowledge. Qianye slapped his forehead hard and drew his attention back to the matter at hand that might concern his life.
Should we choose to fight? But whether we can win or not is the question. If it can be resolved peacefully, there is no need for us and Heizi to take that risk.
The brain started working at high speed, retrieving information about Kokodora. Its diet seemed to be... iron ore, or any item made of steel was on its menu.
Thinking of this, Qianye reached into his bag with his hands behind his back and began to search, while his eyes were nervously staring at the hostile Kokodora, in case the other party took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
Soon, as his palm touched something hard and cold, the boy breathed a sigh of relief and took out what he had grabbed. It was a few stainless steel forks and spoons, originally used as tableware for picnics.
"Don't worry, we won't hurt you." Trying his best to put on a gentle expression, Qian Ye spread out his hands and displayed the steel cutlery in front of the other party.
Seeing this, Kokodora seemed to be persuaded. Hesitantly, he took a slow step forward. After confirming that the young man did not make any other suspicious moves, his four legs began to accelerate and soon came in front of Qianye.
He bent down and stretched his hand in front of Kokodora. Its blue eyes were completely attracted to the hard "food" in front of it, and it slowly opened its mouth.
Kchi… The smile on Qianye's face instantly froze, and blood spurted out after the sharp teeth pierced into the flesh. Heizi roared angrily and flew towards Kokodora to bite, but Kokodora, who had already opened her mouth, dodged nimbly.
Kokodora spat out the blood-red cutlery that had been bitten off, and disdain was revealed in his eyes. The appearance of being tempted by the "food" was just a disguise, and his real purpose was to take this opportunity to cripple the opponent's hand.
It hurts so much, I almost thought my bones were going to be broken! Qianye's forehead was covered with cold sweat. Perhaps because Heizi rescued him in time, the Kokodora only bit through the flesh and didn't hurt the bones.
"Heizi, throw sand!" Qianye shouted while enduring the pain. He was also angry at this time. His good intentions led to him being bitten back. No one could bear this.
"Awoo." Hearing the master's command, Heizi immediately stretched out his claws and dug into the ground, raising dust and flying towards Kokodora. The opponent was unable to dodge, and a considerable amount of sand flew into its eyes, causing it to close its eyes.
"Now, bite it!"
Hearing the sound, Kokodola quickly opened his eyes. His blue pupils were now bloodshot. In his blurred vision, he saw a greyhound with its mouth wide open biting him. Now it was too late to dodge!
With a ruthless heart, Kokodora lowered its head and charged forward, but Heizi took advantage of its greater flexibility, slightly sideways to dodge, then closed its mouth and bit the opponent's shell hard.
Given the hardness of Kokodora's shell, it would be difficult for Kuroko's bite to be effective, but as luck would have it, Kuroko accurately found the crack on the opponent's body and his fangs instantly pierced into it.
Kokodora screamed in pain and twisted its body to shake off the enemy, but after so many battles, it was no match for the enemy in his prime. The enemy pressed his entire body on it, leaving it unable to break free.
The outcome of this battle is already clear. Even if Qianye, who has already bandaged his wounds, does not intervene in the battle now, Kokodora will sooner or later be drained of all his strength.
But... I always felt something was wrong. The hostility shown by that Kokodora towards me was too abnormal.
Pokémon's minds are very simple, it is impossible for them to have hatred without reason. In addition, for some unknown reason, it has moved away from its original habitat...
Qianye was thinking, when suddenly an inexplicable feeling crept up the back of his head, and all of a sudden the hairs on his body stood on end. Without any hesitation or thought, he shouted to Heizi who was fighting with Kokodora in front of him:
"Heizi, get out of there!"
Although he was puzzled as to why he gave up such a great opportunity to suppress the enemy, Heizi still followed the order faithfully and jumped back with all four legs. The next moment he left, a large white net fell from the sky and directly covered Kokodora on the spot.
"Young man, good job." A familiar voice came from behind him. He turned around quickly and saw the middle-aged man who had given him a large amount of first aid supplies standing there with a chilling smile on his pale face.
He put the gun that fired the net back to his waist, then took out two Poké Balls in succession. Two red lights flashed one after another, and a fat brown rat and a spherical stone with four arms appeared in front of the middle-aged man.
Rattata and Rumblestone... are both Pokémon that have evolved at least once. It is impossible for Kuroko to deal with both of them at the same time. Beads of sweat fell from the back of his head, and Qianye couldn't help but take a step back.
"Uncle, if you want to tame that Kokodora, then it will be handed over to you. We will not interfere with you." He said in a tone that barely maintained composure. At this point, the boy could probably guess the true identity of the middle-aged man.
Pokémon hunters are vicious lawbreakers who make profits by selling certain Pokémon organs or Pokémon themselves. They poach, rob... and even kill people for loot, using any means possible.
"You are very sensible, young man. What's more, you have helped me a lot." The middle-aged man looked at Kokodora who was struggling desperately in the net, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
"This guy bit my arm while I was unloading. If you hadn't led the way for me, I wouldn't have been able to find it so easily."
As a Pokémon hunter active in the Hoenn region for many years, he came here this time to make a big deal in Viridian City. Unexpectedly, he didn't see the seller and his arm was injured by his own goods.
Thanks to the appearance of that boy... The painkillers he sent out had a tracker at the bottom. If the signal stayed in one place for a long time, it was very likely that the boy had a conflict with the "goods". In fact, he originally wanted to instigate the other party to take the initiative to search, but it didn't matter, anyway, the purpose had been achieved.
"Don't bother. That's a sticky net specially prepared for you." Looking at Kokodora who found that brute force was useless and began to try to bite off the capture net, the hunter mocked her and then shifted his gaze back to Qianye's direction.
"How about this, since we are so predestined to meet, just give me the coyote dog and you can go."
Are you completely done pretending... Qianye's heart sank. He would never hand over the black piece to the opponent no matter what. But it was not realistic to defeat the opponent given the gap between us, unless... The boy's eyes moved to Kokodora in the net.
"Heizi! Buy me some time." After giving the order decisively, Qianye quickly ran to the net, grabbed the net cable with both hands, and tried with all his strength to pull it off the ground.
"Naive! Radha, ram it."
After receiving the order, Rada ran quickly and flew out like a rocket, with white light on his head, and crashed into Heizi.
"Blackie! Get out of the way after throwing sand!"
Kuroko once again raised a cloud of dust, and the reckless Lada's attack was obviously deviated due to the obstruction of vision, and was narrowly avoided by Kuroko.
Seeing that his Pokémon's attack was actually dodged by a young Pokémon, the hunter looked unhappy and immediately ordered: "It's not over yet! Rumblestone, roll."
The stone monster let out a rumbling cry, then hugged itself with its four hands and began to spin like a wheel, gradually increasing in speed as it charged straight forward.
"Heizi, get out of the way…" Just as he was about to order Heizi to get out of the way, Qianye soon discovered that Longlongshi's target was… himself!
"Heizi! Don't come over here!" Qianye stopped Heizi from trying to rush over to save his master. Looking at the rolling stones that were getting bigger and bigger in his sight, he forced himself to suppress the urge to close his eyes out of fear, and at the same time, he tightened his grip on the network cable.
As if being hit head-on by a speeding vehicle, the moment he flew into the air, Qianye felt that his internal organs were about to be dislocated. As his body returned to the ground again, the young man lay prone like mud, holding a huge white net in his hand.
At the same time, Kokodora, who was freed from the restraints, was a little stunned, and her blue eyes looked at the boy lying on the ground.
"How stupid... A Pokémon without the assistance of a conductor poses no threat at all. Remember this in your next life. Rattata, use Crunch on Kokodora!"
Rada, who had just been tricked, was extremely angry. It opened its mouth, revealing its guillotine-like front teeth, and went straight to bite Kokodora.
"Heizi...bite." A painful but firm voice sounded, and Heizi flew up and bit Lada's thigh. Lada screamed in pain and turned around to try to use the moves he had prepared on the attacker, but the tight bite of the jaws made it unable to move for a while.
"Waste! Rumblestone!"
Hearing the master's order, Longlongshi immediately looked at Kokodora who was running away, and was about to start rolling again. However, before the four hands could merge together, a weight suddenly pressed on it. Then, two arms and two legs hooked out from behind and forcibly locked its body.
"Don't even think about leaving!" came the voice of a young man who had gotten up at some point.
"Are you kidding me!?" The hunter looked as if he had seen a ghost when he saw the scene in front of him. It was already exaggerated that he could speak after being directly hit by the rolling object. Now he could even lock the Rhythm with his own strength. Is this guy still a human being?
