Pokémon: Pikachu Bonds

"Caterpillar alone cannot defeat the ground-type Screwtape. Before catching Screwtape, you have to capture a grass-type or water-type Pokémon first," Xiaozhi reminded.

"But the problem now is that with Caterpillar's strength, it may not be able to defeat even the weakest Grass-type Pokémon, unless it can evolve into Butterfree." Xiaoxia interrupted.

The young man showed a frustrated expression when he heard this. After all, he had only thought about taming the Screw Rat to enhance his combat power, and had never thought about whether his Caterpillar could defeat the opponent.

Seeing the boy's frustrated expression, Xiaozhi said, "How about this~ As long as you find Screwta, I will lend you my Pokémon, and then you can capture Screwta."

"Pica~"

The boy was surprised when he heard this: "Is it really possible?"

"Of course you can~ By the way, my name is Xiaozhi, this big sister who is afraid of bug Pokémon is Xiaoxia, and this big brother is Xiaogang." Xiaozhi introduced.

"My name is Xiaoyi." The boy introduced himself.

"Then let's help Xiaoyi find the screw mole next." Xiaozhi suggested.

"Okay~"*2, Xiaogang and Xiaoxia agreed at the same time.

"Same~" Just as the words fell, a gopher popped its head out of the soil, looking around as if observing the surrounding environment.

"We found the screw mole." Xiaozhi said, pointing not far away.

"Same~" The Diglett seemed to be frightened by Xiaozhi's words and quickly burrowed back into the soil.

"Don't even think about escaping! Pikachu, use Iron Tail on the ground!" Xiaozhi quickly gave the order.

"Pika~" Pikachu quickly jumped from Xiaozhi's shoulder into the air and smashed the hole with its tail covered with metallic luster.

The ground centered on Iron Tail cracked like a spider web, and the screw mole hiding underground was directly shaken out.

"Same~" The screw rat that was shocked out quickly got up from the ground and looked like it was ready to attack at any time.

"Xiaoyi, now I will temporarily give you the right to use Pikachu. You will be able to command Pikachu to defeat Screwter!" Xiaozhi said to Xiaoyi who was standing aside.

"Well~ I'll leave Pikachu to you from now on." Xiaoyi said.

"Pika~" Pikachu patted his chest and said, "Leave it to me."

"Same~" Diglett quickly ran towards Pikachu and slashed at Pikachu with its claws covered with metallic luster.

"Pikachu, find a way to avoid it!" Xiaoyi shouted anxiously.

"Pika~" Pikachu quickly dodged the oncoming metal claws and counterattacked with its iron tail.

"Xiaoyi, don't be quiet. My Pikachu not only knows how to use Iron Tail, but also Surf." Xiaozhi reminded.

"Yeah, I understand." Xiaoyi nodded and ordered, "Pikachu, use Surf!"

"Pika~" Pikachu, who received Xiaoyi's order, quickly distanced himself from Diglett, summoned a huge wave out of thin air and hit Diglett directly head-on.

"Same~" After the waves receded, what appeared in front of everyone was the unconscious Gopher.

"Xiaoyi, throw the Poké Ball now!" Xiaozhi reminded.

"Hmm~" Xiaoyi quickly took out the Poké Ball and threw it at the Screw Hamster. The Poké Ball hit the Screw Hamster's head accurately, and then turned it into a red light and took it in. Then the Poké Ball fell to the ground and kept shaking, looking like it was about to explode at any time...

Xiaoyi looked at the Poké Ball nervously, fearing that the Screw Hamster would break free from the Poké Ball...

ding dong~

Fortunately, after a few seconds of struggle, the Poké Ball stopped shaking.

Xiaoyi excitedly went forward to pick up the Poké Ball containing the Screw Hamster and said excitedly: "I finally captured the Screw Hamster!"

"Xiaoyi, congratulations on successfully taming Diglett."*3, Xiaozhi and his friends stepped forward to congratulate him.

"Thanks to Xiaozhi for lending me Pikachu, otherwise I would not have been able to capture Diglett so smoothly." Xiaoyi was very grateful to Xiaozhi for his help.

"Don't be so polite. It's just a piece of cake." Xiaozhi said with a smile, and then changed the subject: "Since you have successfully captured the Screw Hamster, we should go now."

"Okay~ I wish you a safe journey!" Xiaoyi said goodbye.

"Well~ Work hard to become stronger. I hope to meet you in the league competition in the future." Xiaozhi waved goodbye.

"I will definitely work hard to become stronger, and I will definitely meet you in the league competition in the near future." Xiaoyi clenched his fists and murmured.

Vermilion Town Pokémon Center...

Gou Hao stared at the ceiling with lifeless eyes. Although the doctor's rescue saved his life, he completely lost the opportunity to be a man and became the first eunuch in the Pokémon world.

When Gou Hao thought about how he had mistaken male Kaili and male Rada for a beautiful girl and a loli in the forest, he became upset. Especially after he knew that he had lost his ability to be a man, he wanted to die.

"It's just two or three inches missing. Is there any need to commit suicide?" Suddenly a voice appeared in Gou Hao's mind.

"Who is it?" Gou Hao, who was originally in emo, was frightened by the sudden voice and looked around for the source of the voice.

"No need to look for it, I'm here." A black stone appeared in front of Gou Hao.

"Stones can actually talk?" Gou Hao asked in surprise.

"I'm not a stone. I'm the legendary God of Destruction, Dark Arceus." said the black stone proudly.

"God of Destruction, Dark Arceus? You are not lying to me, are you? How could the God of Destruction be a piece of black stone?" Gou Hao asked suspiciously.

"How could I, the great God of Destruction, lie to you? Besides, this is not a stone. It is the dark stone condensed from my original power." Dark Arceus said lightly.

"That's true." Gou Hao thought about it carefully and realized that the other party had no reason to lie to him. Then Gou Hao asked curiously, "God of Destruction, why are you in such a place?"

"Because you and I are destined to be together. I dropped this Origin Stone accidentally in the Pokémon world. If someone picks it up, it proves that he and I are destined to be together. I can fulfill his three wishes." Dark Zeus continued to deceive.

Gou Hao was delighted when he heard this, and then he asked hurriedly: "Can you save my lost caterpillar and eggs?"

Although he didn't know why he picked up the Dark Stone, Gou Hao didn't care about that. As long as the other party could rescue the dead Caterpillar and Egg, it would be fine.

"Of course~ Not only can I revive your Caterpillar and Egg, but I can also help you become the strongest Pokémon trainer." Dark Arceus tempted.
