...
At that time, Xiaozhi and his party had just left the Platycodon Gym.
During a free operation, although Charizard didn't know the existence of Charizard Valley yet, Charizard already vaguely knew that he might leave the team.
Although it is not a dragon, as a dragon, its sixth sense of metaphysics is still very accurate.
Charizard wants to keep its unique skills.
It's just that the old man can't do it well, and the newcomer's level is not good enough, so he can't accept his unique skills.
A fire rat? Although the burst is not bad, the level is still too low.
A big carrot? Total mismatch.
The most important thing is that these two Pokémon have no wings and cannot fly.
So Charizard set his sights on Heracross, who had just joined the team.
An afternoon, time for free movement.
Charizard suddenly tapped Heracross on the shoulder.
"Aw~ (Young man, come with me.)"
"Hera?"
It had a natural look on its face and looked at its senior in a daze.
But with its easy-going nature, it still walked into the woods with the fire-breathing dragon.
Then Charizard ignored Heracross's expression, lowered his body, and suddenly hugged the latter's waist.
"Hera?!"
Spread its wings soaring into the sky, flying in a spiral, crashing down...
"Boom boom boom..."
Then there was a violent vibration on the ground, which made Xiaozhi and the other three who were drinking tea not far away smiled leisurely and felt very relieved.
It's a good thing that new and old Pokémon get along well...
...
The memories end here.
Thinking of these, Heracross's fighting spirit was ignited again.
"Hera!"
Standing upright, all the injuries on his body seemed to have disappeared.
"Hmph, it's so fancy."
A Bi didn't care about this, he raised his hand and pointed his finger to launch the final attack.
"Flying Mantis, use your final acrobatics!"
Although Xiaozhi's level is already enough to get the gym badge at this moment, Abi is a little bit on the head, and he goes all out.
"Chasa!"
The Flying Mantis Scythe Weasel waved its feet, leaped high into the air, and was once again covered with a light blue energy coat. It had a cunning figure and swooped over.
"Heracross, block it!!"
However, Xiaozhi surprisingly did not choose to dodge, but faced it head-on.
"Hera!"
Heracross' eyes were focused, and he also assumed a defensive posture without taking a step back.
For a moment, it seemed as if he was connected with Xiaozhi's mind, causing Heracross's body to continuously gush out new power.
next moment.
"Boom!"
The flying mantis hit Heracross's chest. The strong impact, combined with the technician's characteristics, made the power of acrobatics reach a new level.
There was also the four times restrained flying attribute, and the plummeting blood skin caused Heracross to almost faint.
The insect's thick hind limbs were embedded in the ground and stretched out, leaving several black marks.
"Hera...!"
However, when the Flying Mantis' skill ended, Heracross did not fall down like that. Although his eyes were half-pressed, they were still bright.
Heracross's characteristic is Perseverance, which increases his strength when entering an abnormal state.
But this characteristic also has a purely literal meaning, that is, Heracross's will is extremely firm and full of perseverance!
"Hera!"
It roared, its waist sank, and its two insect arms stretched forward.
Just as Charizard hugged it, he also hugged the Flying Mantis with the same movement.
"fork..."
The flying mantis was still struggling crazily, but with Heracross's brute strength that could compete with Ash's, it was not something that a bug could break free from.
Then Heracross flapped his wings on his back, hugging the figure of the flying mantis, and flew directly into the air several meters high, even almost hitting the transparent glass on the ceiling.
Then Heracross began to fly up and down, the trajectory drawing a vertical circle in the sky, and the speed continued to increase during the rotation.
"This is..."
A Bi was stunned.
In the haze, a blue phantom of the earth appeared in his eyes.
"This move..."
Next to them, Xiaogang and Xiaoxia were Laodong brothers. The sense of déjà vu was so strong that they all stood up.
Similarly, there is a shadow of the earth in front of me, but what seems to be echoing in my ears is the mighty roar of a dragon.
What was spinning in the sky even seemed to turn into a red fire-colored, arrogant fire dragon.
Just when he blinked again, the dark blue unicorn beetle had completed its final rotation and plummeted.
"Hera!"
In his hand, he was holding the Flying Mantis, whose eyes were spinning. Finally, his arm muscles exploded, and he suddenly exerted force and smashed the Flying Mantis out.
Cast on earth! !
"Boom!"
There was a loud roar, the ground cracked, and gravel was scattered everywhere.
The movement was so loud that everyone trembled in shock.
The roaring smoke spread out and covered them...
...
"Hera!"
When the smoke cleared, Heracross stood at one end of the arena, raising his arms high.
A single horn stood tall, looking quite domineering and heroic.
At the other end, the Flying Mantis had fallen into the rubble, its eyes were spinning, and it looked a little miserable.
Even though the power of the Earth Throw as a fighting trick is not too high, the Flying Mantis is even frighteningly four times more resistant to it.
But as long as this move is used, it means the victory or defeat is decided.
It has nothing to do with attribute restraint and power.
"Flying Mantis cannot fight, Heracross wins!"
"So the winner of this Hinoki Gym Challenge is Ash!"
The insect-catching boy in shorts was stunned for a while before he announced his verdict loudly.
"Take it!"
Hearing these words, Xiaozhi breathed a sigh of relief and punched forward with a joyful expression.
"Hera..."
Heracross, on the other hand, fell down on the ground and gasped for breath.
After taking two shots of Quadruple Restraint Acrobatics, its physical strength had already reached its lowest point. It relied on perseverance to hold on with the last drop of its blood.
Really, invisible waist.
"Hera..."
Then Hera raised her head and the sun shone down.
In the hazy moment, it could even see the old man in heaven showing a happy smile...
...
...
afterwards.
Xiaozhi took the badge handed over from Abi.
Red and black, the shape is like a small spotted ladybug, very delicate - an insect badge.
Xiaozhi quickly and carefully pinned it on the lining of his jacket. This was his second badge.
It's going pretty well!
"Um...well, Xiaozhi, I have a favor..."
When they were about to leave, Abi suddenly started to squirm and speak hesitantly.
"Actually, my ace is a Heracross... and it's a female. It's also in heat recently. I think your Heracross looks pretty good. Can you talk to my one... .?"
in other words.
Your bug is pretty good, can it hatch an egg?
His Heracross trait is Insect Premonition, also known as Little Fire.
But Heracross with the Perseverance trait is the best choice, but this kind of Pokémon is not uncommon.
Even at the monthly insect-catching meeting in the next city, catching Heracross means you are the champion.
...
"I reject!"
Xiaozhi immediately refused.
What's wrong with the people in the Johto area? The Platycodon Gym wants its eagle to hatch eggs.
Charizard Valley is also eyeing the grassroots genes of its own Charizard.
Now I have to build a bug-type gym and hatch eggs? !
Can't get used to it!
Xiaozhi's expression was very righteous, serious and meticulous.
A Bi chuckled and took out a dark green CD from his pocket.
"Oh, of course it's not free, I have a "continuous cutting" skill machine here, which I can give to you for free..."
Xiaozhi: "..."
This made his face twitch a little, but he still had a righteous expression.
But the left unicorn arm seemed to be out of control, reaching towards the waist...
