[Pokémon: Entei]
[Type: Fire]
[Gender: Genderless]
[Level: Secondary God]
[Ability: Pressure]
[Potential: Secondary God]
[Moves: Extreme Speed, Flame Wheel, Flamethrower, Fire Blast, Sunny Day, Extrasensory...]
"Entei, let's settle this!" Ash excitedly challenged.
"Roar~"
Entei let out a long howl toward the sky.
"Misdreavus, use Mean Look!"
After Misdreavus glared at Entei, the effect of Mean Look activated.
"Good, now it can't escape. Misdreavus, use Swift!"
Due to the massive level gap, Misdreavus's Swift didn't even qualify as a scratch.
Entei stood there motionless. After symbolically tanking a few of Misdreavus's moves, it used Extrasensory to knock Misdreavus back into its Poké Ball.
Entei stared at Ash, "Roar~" (Rainbow Hero, I heard from Suicune that you are looking for me and Raikou?)
"???"
Damn, when did I ever say I was looking for the two of you?
I only said that since I hadn't gained your recognition, I didn't want to go see Ho-Oh yet.
If I didn't know you were Legendary Pokémon, I would have arranged an anti-scam course for you long ago!
Damn Suicune!
Complaining is one thing.
Since Entei was right in his face, Ash could only awkwardly reply via Aura: "Uh... something like that."
"You are strong, stronger than any human Ho-Oh has chosen in the past. Go, you have earned my recognition! Ho-Oh is waiting for you!"
After saying this, Entei turned around and used Extreme Speed to slip away. It didn't give Ash a chance to refuse.
"What the hell, what kind of situation is this?" Ash was speechless.
He had just finished the Water Metropolis incident and wanted to relax and prepare for the Silver Conference!
"I hope Goh doesn't come so soon!"
He could only pray now that Marshadow was still sleeping and idling, and wouldn't notice him.
After saying goodbye to Sanyo, Ash's group continued toward the Mt. Silver reserve.
A few days later, the group was resting in a forest.
"How is it, Larvitar? Is it delicious?" Misty suddenly leaned in front of Larvitar to ask.
Larvitar's body stiffened when it saw Misty.
"Sigh, it still only stays close to you, Ash!" Misty said regretfully.
Ash comforted her: "Misty, give it some time to adapt. Larvitar has already started to slowly accept you."
Misty said thoughtfully: "That's true, at least it didn't use Growl again."
Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the bushes nearby.
Then, a yellow object resembling a plug poked out from the bushes.
"Is that... Elekid?" Brock confirmed.
In the next second, an Elekid ran out from the bushes. When facing Ash and the others, it wasn't afraid at all. It came up, huddled next to Larvitar, familiarly put its arm around Larvitar's shoulder, and even ate its food right in front of Larvitar.
[Pokémon: Elekid]
[Type: Electric]
[Gender: Male]
[Level: Elite Beginner]
[Ability: Vital Spirit (By stimulating its fighting spirit, it will not fall into a sleep state.)]
[Potential: Elite]
[Moves: Quick Attack, Thunder Shock, Charge, Swift, Shock Wave, Thunder Wave, Thunder Punch...]
Faced with such a social butterfly, Larvitar shrank back in fear for no reason.
"This Elekid is really bold, not afraid of strangers at all." Brock exclaimed.
Misty nodded in agreement: "Yeah!"
Ash reached out and touched Larvitar's head, comforting it: "Larvitar, don't be afraid. Elekid has no malicious intent; it just wants to make friends with you."
"Larvi-Larvi?" (Really?) Larvitar asked uncertainly.
"Ele~" Elekid smiled and extended its small hand again, representing friendship.
Larvitar looked at Ash first, then shyly reached out to respond.
Before long, Larvitar became friends with Elekid. Of course, it was mostly Elekid taking care of Larvitar.
"Ash, why don't you catch this Elekid? Larvitar has become friends with it." Misty suggested.
Ash glanced at the gradually opening-up Larvitar, "I'll give it a try."
He walked up to Elekid and leaned over to ask: "Elekid, do you want to become partners with Larvitar?"
"Ele?" (Do you want to be my Trainer?) Elekid looked at Ash in confusion.
"Yeah." Ash nodded.
"Ele~~" Elekid immediately got excited. It took a few steps forward and then struck a battle pose, clearly wanting Ash to catch it through a battle.
"Alright, then Larvitar, I choose you!"
Ash pushed Larvitar opposite Elekid.
"Eh? Ash, are you serious?" Misty looked at Ash suspiciously.
If she remembered correctly, Larvitar hadn't battled any Pokémon yet.
"Don't worry, I believe in Larvitar." Ash said confidently.
Although Larvitar hadn't battled, its level had already reached Elite High, only one level lower than Elekid.
Larvitar had the type advantage, and Ash had also "poured resources" into Larvitar's move pool.
Hearing Ash's words, Larvitar's eyes became firm.
Seeing the change in Larvitar's eyes, Elekid's fighting spirit grew even stronger. The two horns on its head flashed with electricity, and then a bolt of lightning shot out.
"Larvitar, use Rock Throw!"
Larvitar thrust its small hands into the ground, prying up a rock similar in size to itself.
After blocking Elekid's move, Larvitar smashed the rock over.
Elekid used Quick Attack to dodge the attack while approaching Larvitar.
"Larvitar, use Bite."
When Elekid got close, Larvitar seized the opportunity and bit down on Elekid's hand.
Elekid shook its hand, trying to break free from Larvitar's Bite, but Larvitar seemed to have grown onto its hand and wouldn't shake off.
Then, Larvitar took the opportunity to use Body Slam, pinning Elekid firmly underneath it.
Ash took the opportunity to throw the Poké Ball.
"Wait a minute!"
Just as Ash threw the ball, a familiar voice came from behind them.
Alas, this voice was still too late. Ash's ball had already been thrown and had hit Elekid.
"Ah! Came too late."
