Pokémon: Pikachu Bonds

"Roar!!"

With a roar, a crocodile-like Pokémon appeared in Xiaozhi's sight. Its red body was covered with rectangular scales, and the angular white scales on its abdomen had black stripes on both sides. There were also various white patterns on its body, and there were three black claws on its feet, which looked extremely sharp.

"This Pokémon is..." Xiaozhi looked at the strange Pokémon in front of him and immediately took out his mobile phone Rotom to scan the other party's information: "There is no record of this Pokémon."

"I can't even find any information about this Pokémon. Could it be another Pokémon that hasn't been discovered by anyone?" Xiaozhi said in surprise.

"Not really~ This Pokémon has been discovered, and it's considered one of the more common Pokémon. The reason why the Rotom mobile app can't scan its information is probably because Nishinomori hasn't updated the Pokémon information for the Padia region yet." Xia Bo explained.

"This Pokémon that looks like a crocodile is actually a Pokémon from the Padia region?" Xiaozhi said in surprise.

"That's right~ This Pokémon is called Crocodile, the final evolution of Crocodile, and one of the Pokémon that the Padia Alliance assigns to novice trainers. Crocodile is a Fire-attribute Pokémon, but it gains the Ghost attribute when it evolves into Crocodile."

"And the Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile can use 3000-degree flames to burn its enemies to ashes. The firebird on the tip of its nose can change its appearance through singing. It is said that it is formed by the soul residing in the fireball on its head." Xia Bo taught Xiaozhi about the Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile.

Although Xiaozhi would have an advantage if he didn't know the information and attributes of Crocodile, as a gym trainer, Xia Bo still had some tolerance. Moreover, he had just been recruited by his brother Red some time ago and became one of the top leaders of the Pokémon World Defense Team. Although Xiaozhi was his leader's younger brother, Xia Bo did not intend to let him go.

"Pokémon that lives in the Padia region? I'm becoming more and more interested in the Padia region." Xiaozhi said excitedly.

Although Xiaozhi is very curious about the unknown Padia region, he is not in a hurry to go to Padia. After all, Xiaozhi has just begun to explore the Galar region. After Xiaozhi finishes participating in the joint competition, he will plan to travel to the Galar region first.

"If there are no other questions, let's continue the game." Xia Bo reminded.

"No problem, let's continue the game." Xiaozhi shook his head and said, then took out the Poké Ball and took back the Weasel.

Although Weasel has the advantage against the fire-attributed Crocodile, it has been badly wounded in the previous battle. There is no need to let it continue fighting. It is better to let it return to the Poké Ball and have a good rest.

"The Giant Crab has decided that it's you!" Xiaozhi then took out another ball and threw it out.

“Kaka~”

As soon as the Crab appeared on the scene, it waved its claws excitedly. After all, Ash hadn't sent it into the field for a long time, and it was too boring to just train with its partners every day. It had long wanted to have a Pokémon battle.

"The second one is still the giant crab with water attribute...wait~this one is..." Xia Bo suddenly found a blind spot.

"Xiaozhi, I've been curious before. Why are the previous Itachi, the current Crab, and the Pikachu next to you all wearing green vests?" Xia Bo asked the question that had puzzled him for a long time.

"What are you talking about? This is the gravity vest that Professor Oak developed for me. It's a special vest for special training of my Pokémon." Xiaozhi explained.

"I see~ Use gravity to train Pokémon's speed." As experienced as Xia Bo is, he understood the function of the gravity vest without Xiaozhi explaining much.

"The second game begins!" the referee announced.

"Bone Pattern Giant Crocodile uses Thunder Fang!"

"Roar!!" The bone-patterned giant crocodile opened its bloody mouth and pounced on the giant crab, and at the same time its sharp fangs were covered with electric current.

"Giant Claw Crab, get out of the way, use Crab Punch!"

"Kaka~" The giant crab quickly dodged to the right, making its attack miss, and then aimed at the bone-patterned giant crocodile's head and punched it with a crab punch.

"Roar~" The Bone-Patterned Crocodile howled in pain. It didn't expect that the crab in front of it was so strong that it almost got its head knocked off.

“Kaka~”

The giant crab adhered to the principle of attacking you while you are weak, waving its claws and constantly greeting the bone-patterned giant crocodile, catching it off guard.

"Roar?!"

The Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile was already dizzy from the punches from the crab, but now the big crab in front of him showed no moral ethics and kept hitting his head with its pincers. Was it planning to crack his head open and taste his brains?

"The Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile uses its special move of digging holes!" Xia Bo shouted hurriedly. He didn't expect that the Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile would be at a disadvantage as soon as it appeared on the scene. It would definitely lose if it continued like this. He could only let it burrow into the ground to buffer the situation.

"Roar!!" After receiving Xia Bo's order, the Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile hurriedly distanced itself from the Giant Claw Crab, preparing to use its special move of digging holes.

"Kaka~" The giant crab would not give the bone-patterned giant crocodile any chance. It directly waved its claws and prepared to pursue the victory.

"Roar?!" The Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile looked at the Giant Claw Crab chasing it and hurriedly swung its tail, lashing at the Giant Claw Crab like a whip.

"Kaka~" The giant crab looked at the oncoming attack and hurriedly put its claws in front of itself, using its claws to block the attack.

"Roar~" The Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile took advantage of this gap, quickly waved its little claws to dig a hole in the ground and crawled in.

"Giant Claw Crab, chase after it!" Xiaozhi quickly gave the order.

"Kaka~" The giant crab quickly came to the entrance of the cave and jumped into the cave.

"What?!" Xia Bo was stunned by Xiaozhi's action.

"Now is the time for Crab to use its Surfing trick!" Xiaozhi shouted.

“Kaka~”

The giant crab that burrowed into the ground directly summoned huge waves underground, and in the blink of an eye the ground was filled with water. The poor bone-patterned giant crocodile was soaked in water before it could react.

"The Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile, rush out of the ground quickly!" Xia Bo shouted hurriedly.

"Hooho~"

Unfortunately, the Bone-Patterned Crocodile, which was soaked in water, could not hear the trainer's words at all. It could only rely on its survival instinct to struggle frantically in the water. At the same time, it seemed to see its grandmother waving her little hands at it. The grandmother seemed to want the Bone-Patterned Crocodile to go to the underworld to accompany it.

"Kaka~" The giant crab quickly swam in front of the bone-patterned giant crocodile and swung its claws to blast it out of the ground...

Boom~

The ground suddenly cracked, and then the giant bone-patterned crocodile shot out from the ground like a cannonball and slammed hard on the ground. Then the giant crab also jumped out of the hole and landed on the ground...
