The Silencer leaped into the air, its leaves on both sides glowing white, as if transforming into the sharpest sword on the battlefield, piercing towards Bulbasaur.
Next, Fang Gu gave Bulbasaur an absolutely unexpected command.
"Bulbasaur, take this attack."
"He immediately used a rattan whip to grab the speechless flower."
Although Bulbasaur didn't know what Fang Gu's intentions were, he would always trust Fang Gu!
The vines beneath the Bulbasaur's flower bud quickly extended, and as it met the Burrowstrike's attack with its forehead, it grabbed the Burrowstrike's body with its vines.
A triumphant smile spread across Fang Gu's face. "Let's just use the power of the earth directly!"
For a moment, Fu Ye was stunned. All he had to do was let the speechless flower use the dissolving liquid skill.
With a swollen, red forehead and tears welling in its eyes, Bulbasaur stomped down hard on its forelegs in a fit of rage!
The energy of the ground was conducted to the earth, and a huge crack began to appear in the ground, with the surging power filling the body of the speechless flower.
Before long, the power of the earth disappeared, and the speechless flower lay on the ground.
"Dumbbell, unable to battle. Please send out the next Pokémon, Mr. Guardian," said, raising the flag in his hand.
"I'm really surprised that Bulbasaur can even learn Earth Power."
"I can feel the power of trust between you, Xiaogu and Bulbasaur. It's so good that you met each other."
"However, the guy you're about to face is going to be tough."
Fu Ye also ignited his fighting spirit and threw the Poké Ball with all his might.
A blue, spherical Pokémon appeared on the battlefield.
It's Grandpa Fu's shuttlecock cotton.
Shuttlecock, a blue sphere, has three cotton balls, roughly the same size as its body, extending out like the three endpoints of a triangle, located on both sides and the top of its head.
Jumpluff is a very small Pokémon, standing 0.8 meters tall and weighing only 3 kilograms.
Jumpluff can ride the warm southerly winds across the ocean, making it one of the few non-bird Pokémon with migratory habits.
It can control its fur at will and go wherever it likes.
Its cotton-like fibers can also be used as raw materials for clothing, making it an important source of revenue for grass-based ranches.
However, it is important to remember that the cotton fibers in shuttlecock cotton should be produced voluntarily. If they are collected manually, it is easy to cause the cotton to shed all its fibers due to an emergency.
When all the cotton fibers in the shuttlecock have fallen out, that's when its journey and life come to an end.
Fang Gu looked at the shuttlecock in front of him, which was rising with the wind, and his face became more serious.
"Come back first, Bulbasaur."
Bulbasaur retreated from the grass. Fang Gu hesitated for a moment before deciding on his team member.
"Riolus, I'm counting on you!"
Chapter 138 Master of Reverse Attributes? I Really Had No Choice
"Woo!"
Riolu let out an excited shout, skillfully assumed the starting stance, and could hardly contain its excitement!
It has been waiting for so long!
It! Now! It must be challenged immediately!
Riolu looked at the shuttlecock flying in the air in front of him without any fear.
Logically speaking, Jumpluff, being a dual-type Flying and Grass, should be effective against Riolu.
Sending Riolu into Fang Gu might not seem like a good choice to outsiders.
Or perhaps Fang Gu also wants to become a master of reverse-attribute skills, just like Xiao Zhi.
But that's not the case; in fact, Fang Gu was also quite helpless inside.
His mounts, Lamb and Bulbasaur, as well as Riolu, are all countered by Jumpluff.
If Bulbasaur had mastered poison-type moves, things might be a bit easier.
The only other type of move Bulbasaur can use besides Grass-type moves is Ground Power.
However, given Bulbasaur's current state, it cannot use Earth Power continuously, and the Earth Power on the ground cannot attack Jumpluff, which is flying in the air.
The remaining Grass-type moves are four times more resistant to Jumpluff.
That means we can only use Riolu.
At least, Shuten-dōji has double resistance to Fighting-type moves.
There's no way around it. As a rancher, I don't really pursue the complementary and defensive synergies of Pokémon types, which leads to situations where most of my Pokémon are weak against a particular type.
That's why he doesn't want to be a trainer!
Fang Gu was helpless; he estimated that the reversal of this small round would depend on the Aura power on Riolu.
"Riolu reminds me of an old guy."
A look of reminiscence appeared in Grandpa Fu's eyes.
"I wonder how that old man, Coco, is doing lately."
Cocoble is the former Gym Leader of the Sala City Gym. As the same age as Fu-ye, the two old men used to be together as the previous Gym Leaders.
However, recently the gym leader of Sara City has changed to that old man's granddaughter, who seems to be a sunny girl who loves roller skating and inherited the family gym at a young age.
Thinking of how outstanding his old friends' grandchildren were, Grandpa Fu suddenly felt a pang of disappointment.
Where are my grandchildren?!
"Ouch!"
Riolu waved warmly to Grandpa Cocoble, as if to tell him that Grandpa Cocoble was doing well.
Fu Ye understood Riolu's meaning and smiled, "It seems you little guy did come from the Refinement Tower, not bad, not bad."
"Uh."
Fang Gu scratched his head. To be honest, it was only today that he learned Riolu was actually from the Refining Tower of Sara City.
It's highly likely that she's also related to Korrina, the Gym Leader of Sara City.
"If I get the chance, I should take Riolu back to Salo City. People need to know about Riolu's recent situation," Fang Gu muttered to himself.
The city of Salo is not far from the city of Biyi. Both cities are located on the western coast of the Carlos region and are even connected by a light rail.
The round trip will take at most half a day.
"Being distracted during battle is not a good habit."
"Shuttlecock cotton, using acrobatics."
Master Fu was the first to issue the order.
A light, ethereal glow emanated from the shuttlecock, making it appear like an acrobat, twirling and spinning in the air, leaving one wondering when the attack would land.
This is an acrobatic move, a flight-type skill. It uses unpredictable flight trajectories to deceive and trick opponents, launching an attack the moment they are off guard.
Additionally, this move has a unique characteristic: its power is doubled when the Pokémon using it has no items.
In other words, the acrobatic power of the shuttlecock cotton has now reached 110!
Rioluco didn't seem flustered.
Fang Gu glanced at Riolu with relief and quickly ordered, "Riolu, use Bulk Up."
Riolu emitted a crimson light, its muscles tensed, and it looked like it had grown a size larger.
Before Jumpluff could launch an attack, Riolu's Bodybuilding skill had already ended.
This is thanks to Riolu's Prankster ability, which allows Riolu to use its status moves first.
Riolu's attack and defense have both increased by one level.
Shuttlecock cried out in annoyance, but finally couldn't hold back and charged downwards.
The light symbolizing "acrobatic" skills on its body subsided, only to erupt again at the very moment it was about to strike Riolu.
Faced with the flying kick from the shuttlecock, Riolu could only block it with his arms.
To his surprise, he found that the shuttlecock's flying kick was soft and weak.
Could it be due to my improved defense?
Riolu was taken aback, and a hint of smug satisfaction appeared in Jumpluff's eyes. Then Riolu jumped up again with both arms raised.
We're about to detour around the back of Rio Road.
At that very moment, Fang Gu unleashed his "Roar" skill!
"Riolus, use Dig!"
Without hesitation, Riolu lunged forward, and the soil on the battlefield softened as its paws touched the ground.
Riolu burrowed directly into the ground.
The acrobatic moves of the natural shuttlecock cotton also missed.
Grandpa Fu glanced at Fang Gu with admiration. As someone who wasn't born a trainer, Fang Gu's ability to seize opportunities was surprisingly precise.
However, the digging skill requires sensing the movement of the ground to accurately hit the opponent.
The shuttlecock, which had no earthquake-themed moves, flew into the sky at Master Fu's command.
Meanwhile, Leo Lu did not emerge from the ground; instead, the underground tunnel continued to rise above the ground.
Fang Gu looked at the Jumpluff in the sky with a smile in his eyes, knowing that other Pokémon might be blinded down there.
However, Riolu, as a waveguide Pokémon, is not like that.
Perhaps Riolu has already understood Fang Gu's meaning.
"Woo!"
Just as the shuttlecock relaxed its guard, Riolu seized the opportunity. Riolu leaped out of the ground, its arms raised, gleaming with a metallic sheen, and its sharp claws slashed fiercely across the shuttlecock's body.
