Pokémon: Chosen Ranger

The dark airship shrouded the sky over the Sunset Forest. A beam cannon was deployed at the bottom and fired a beam of purple light towards the Sunset Forest. The strange purple light waves quickly spread in the forest.

This energy has the ability to limit time and space ripples, and can immediately block Celebi's time and space travel ability.

But it has two drawbacks. One is that it consumes a lot of energy, and the other is that it cannot last for a long time.

Therefore, the Rockets immediately implemented the second plan.

"The operation has begun, the advance team please land as planned."

The sound of the broadcast echoed in Team Rocket's airship, and the hatches on both sides slowly opened. As the vanguard, Team Rocket's men activated the flight packs behind them and flew towards the surroundings of the Sunset Forest carrying the jamming device.

Their mission was to land on the outskirts of the forest, establish a siege network relying on interference devices, and continue to block Celebi's ability before the energy released by the beam cannon disappeared.

"Alpha, Beta, and Gamma units please land as planned."

"Looks like it's our turn. I hope I'll be the first to capture Celebi~"

Lance smiled slightly, jumped off the podium, and waved to his Gamma troops: "The troops I lead, go ahead and destroy all the things that are in the way!"

"Yes, Lord Lance!" A group of Team Rocket's men responded enthusiastically.

"Haha, you're in great shape! I'm taking the first step, Apollo!"

Lance didn't carry a jetpack. He ran a few steps and jumped directly from the airship. He held down the beret on his head. His polite face exuded an air of madness.

He unhurriedly released his partner, the Crossed Bat, in the air, and landed to the ground at an extremely fast speed. When he was almost close to the ground, the Crossed Bat grabbed his shoulders, preventing him from being thrown to pieces.

"Haha, ah~" Lance was immersed in the excitement just now, and suddenly discovered the abnormality in front of him. He turned on the communication headset and asked calmly: "What's going on? The scene in front of me is completely different from the information. It's dim. No, it's... There are many glowing plants”

"Lord Lance, I don't know about this. The scene in front of you looks like the Lost Light Forest in the Galar region. Do you want to retreat or not?"

Lance expressionlessly reached out and turned off the headphones, showing a fanatical smile: "Well, it doesn't matter, anyone who dares to stand in front of me, Lance, will be chopped into pieces anyway~"

On the airship, Athena showed a helpless expression and walked slowly down the stairs to the podium:

"What a crazy guy. Does the long-lost wanton destruction excite you so much, Lance?"

She crossed her arms, looked at the Beta team in front of her, and said calmly: "The operation begins, and failure is never allowed. Let's go if you understand."

"Yes, Lady Athena!" Team Beta answered very seriously.

After Athena watched all her troops leave the airship, she turned and walked into the room behind her, entering the aircraft in the center. Unlike Lance, her rigor as a researcher would not allow her to adopt such a crazy landing method.

At this time, a surprised report came from Athena's communication device:

"Lord Athena, we have landed in a snow-covered forest. The temperature here is extremely low. Please transfer."

"What, this is completely inconsistent with the data. Could it be Celebi's ability? No, it's impossible. It was clearly suppressing the time and space ripples just now, and the detection device didn't respond at all." Athena frowned.

"Negative, stay put, can't you even bear the cold?"

I just finished replying to one of the groups, and then there were messages from the remaining two teams:

"Lord Athena, we landed in a tropical rain forest. It does not match the data. We are waiting in place."

"Lord Athena, we have landed in a quiet forest. There is currently thick fog nearby. We are on standby."

Athena took a deep breath. She had only seen various environment combinations in artificial facilities, but no matter what, the plan must be executed perfectly:

"Tsk. Second, the third group, continue to stand by and pay attention to the surrounding environment. The first group, start exploring, and meet up with the second and third groups."

After giving the order, Athena started the aircraft, and the bottom deck slowly opened. Phew, let me see what your forest is capable of.

At the same time, Apollo looked at the remaining five members of Alpha Team, who were Team Rocket's most elite combatants.

"Be honored, we will dedicate our strength to the revival of Team Rocket, yes, everything is for Lord Sakaki!" Apollo shouted.

"Everything is for Sakaki-sama!"

The majestic shouts echoed in the space, showing almost crazy respect.

"Very good! Go ahead, spread out in the forest, and tightly surround Celebi in our hands. We are fighting for honor!"

"yes!"

The five members of Alpha Team activated their flight backpacks, but their backpacks were specially improved, their performance was far superior to other backpacks, and they were also equipped with capture devices.

The jamming devices they carry are also the most critical part, and their efficiency is second only to the four cadres.

Apollo walked toward the unfolded hatch and saw a huge tank crashing into the sunset forest. The powerful impact instantly broke nearby trees.

"Huh, boring appearance. I hope you can play your role, Zoron." Apollo activated the jetpack in displeasure, "It doesn't matter whether you, Athena or Lance succeed, as long as the Rockets can be revived, It doesn’t matter if I find Mr. Sakaki!”

"But I still want to capture Celebi with my own hands. It would be such a joy if I dedicated this success to Lord Sakaki with my own hands!"

Apollo jumped down, aiming at the landing position of the chariot and descending at high speed. Stepping on the wet soil, he found himself near a lake.

"Lake? How is it possible? Then what exactly is the scene I saw in the air?"

Apollo observed his surroundings vigilantly. A faint mist rose from the lake, and his vision gradually blurred.

"Is this Celebi's trick? Hmph, you are pretending to be a ghost, let me solve it quickly, and then dedicate you to Lord Sakaki!"

He suddenly laughed loudly, thinking about the future of Celebi if he successfully captured it:

"Feel honored, Celebi, haha, everything in this world, whether it is time or space, is controlled by Team Rocket and Master Sakaki!"

"Lord Apollo, we have landed successfully and are on a siege mission. We are temporarily suspending the report. There seems to be some Pokémon getting in the way."

Bag, a member of Alpha Team, turned off the communication device. He didn't want Lord Apollo to hear such boring sounds.

He looked up at the proboscis standing on the crown of the tree, and with disdain in his heart, he threw the elf ball he carried.

"Kill them, the giant sting wasp, the moru moth, the flying mantis!"

Seeing this, the proboscis took out their wooden flutes and started playing a melodious and hypnotic tune. Bagg's eyelids suddenly became heavy and he realized something was wrong. He immediately shouted: "Moru Mo, ultrasonic!"

"Mo~!"

The Moru moth emitted noisy sound waves, which instantly offset the hypnotic effect of the wooden flute. The giant needle bee buzzed towards the tree crown, showing off its deadly spikes, and the flying mantis threw out two sharp wind blades, cutting off the supporting proboscis. branches with leaves.

Fortunately, Long Nose Leaf was agile and quickly changed his position without falling.

"Don't let the guy who only knows how to play tricks live!" Bage shouted angrily.

"ah!"

At this time, an armored bird fell from the sky, followed by various bird Pokémon. Its ferocious aura forced the giant needle bee to land and give up the attack.

"Tsk, where did the stupid bird come from? Hey, what are you afraid of? You can easily kill a guy of this level, right?" Bag scolded the three Pokémon beside him.

The armored bird looked disdainful of Bug's confidence. We have been competing with insect Pokémon. Your level in Sunset Forest is second-rate at best.

"ah!"

Armored Bird flapped its wings and scattered a handful of sharp diamond pieces, and at the same time, the remaining bird Pokémon scattered the invisible rocks that Armored Bird had made in advance in its claws.

"What, Saring and Invisible Rock are abominable, Giant Needle Bee, Moru Moth, use sludge bomb, Flying Mantis, use Air Blade!"

Now that Bagg's insect Pokémon was surrounded by dangers, he simply gave up taking the initiative and launched long-range moves to counterattack.

The armored bird chose to ram head-on into the sludge bombs released by the two Pokémon, and showed a mocking smile after being unharmed. The other bird Pokémon kept moving in the air while releasing air blades to attack.

If you don't move, you'll eat the Air Blade. If you move, you'll eat the Ling and Invisible Rock. Want to fight in the air? Can you beat our group of bird Pokémon?

"It's just a wild Pokémon that actually knows the relationship between attributes. Damn it!" Bugg activated his jetpack and rushed into the air quickly. He stretched out his hands, preparing to use the grid capture device to deal with these annoying stupid birds. .

boom! Bagg's jetpack was suddenly attacked and exploded. He looked at the ground in disbelief. It was actually his Pokémon that launched the attack!

They looked weird, as if they were controlled by some kind of being.

"Master Apollo, be careful, there are Pokémon with mental control abilities in this forest!" Bagg passed on his last message, and then hit the three insect Pokémon hard, knocking them unconscious.

The Pheasant walked out of the shadows of the woods. It took the opportunity to release pheromones to control the group of Pokémon while they were trapped. This was the reason why they rebelled just now.

Then it approached Bag, crushed the jamming device that flashed purple light with one paw, and then flew to other areas. The rest of the processing was left to the Long Nose Leaf. It also had to hurry up to support the two teachers.

In the ice and snow forest, Team Rocket's men from the Beta group were shivering with cold and slowly advancing in the blizzard.

"What's going on, this kind of ghost place."

"It's so damn cold!"

"The key is that there's a bastard blizzard, and now you can't even use your jetpack!"

"Don't talk, save the heat."

The leader of the team covered his mouth and muttered. His face was purple from the cold, his fingers were stiff, the cold wind was pouring into his clothes, and the severe cold was invading and stinging his bones. He wished he could throw away all the flight packs and jamming devices. Why were they the only ones so unlucky?

"Team Leader Lyman, Nilan is missing!" Team Rocket's men walking at the end of the team shouted in panic. He felt that it was surprisingly quiet behind him, so he turned around and found that he was at the end of the team.

"Stop moving, alert!"

Lyman shouted, he stretched his hands stiffly to his waist, and painfully touched the cold elf ball.

Seeing someone missing without any movement, other Team Rocket men also panicked. They tried to observe the surrounding environment, but all they could see was the howling wind and snow.

"Lord Athena, cough, we were attacked by an unknown enemy and asked for support from other teams. Some team members are missing now." Lyman shouted into the communication device.

About a minute later, Athena's voice came from the earphones: "Prioritize protecting the jamming device."

In Lyman's heart, these words were extremely cold, and his remaining hope suddenly fell into the ice cellar.

"Fight it, big wolfdog, give it to me!" Lyman raised the elf ball angrily and weakly, why are they the only ones so unlucky! After all, why is it snowing here?

"Team leader, that's right!"

Lyman followed the voice of Team Rocket's men, and the corners of his eyes twitched. Now he finally understood why there was a blizzard, because there was a Blizzard King standing in front of him!

"Asshole! Why is there a Blizzard King?" The cold wind poured into his throat, stinging his throat and making his voice hoarse.

Immediately afterwards, an ice ghost guard emerged from the blizzard and ended his rage. The violent impact instantly made him lose consciousness. Perhaps this was also a relief for him.

The remaining members of Team Rocket froze in place. The shuddering roar of elephants woke them up. The ivory pig trampled on the snow and rushed toward them like an out-of-control truck.

The cold affected their thinking and their actions. This group of Team Rocket men tried to throw the Poké Ball, but were smashed by a sudden snowball.

The Galarian Dharma Baboon and its Galarian Red Tumbler weighed the snowballs in their hands and showed a mocking smile. To deal with you guys, snowballs are enough.

Having lost their last support, a huge ivory pig attacked them. This made them, who were already mentally fragile, give up resistance from the bottom of their hearts and lay down in the snow in despair.

The ivory pig stopped in place with a disappointed look on its face. Why did you fall down before I even made a move? Why is the gap between humans so big?

Blizzard King carried the previously missing Team Rocket men, approached the fallen guys, and then smashed the jamming device with his huge arm.

Looking at the smashed device, it thought that the mission was completed, but Xia Ye said that we don't need to support other areas. Is it really okay?

In the Dream Forest, after landing, the members of the Gamma Team found that they could not contact Lord Lance and could only wander aimlessly in this maze-like forest.

"Where did Mr. Lance go? There are these glowing mushrooms everywhere. Not to mention, they are quite beautiful." Team Rocket's men muttered to themselves, looking down at the mushrooms under their feet.

"I think this kind of mushroom can be sold for a good price, huh? There are also non-luminous mushrooms, no, this is...!"

With a look of horror on his face, he was sprayed with mushroom spores all over his face. He felt drowsy and lay down on the ground.

The lampshade night mushroom stuck out its head and slowly dragged the sleeping Rockets men into the shadows. The dreamy scenery lowered the vigilance of this group of Rockets men. After a while, an unlucky person would fall into the trap due to the mushroom spores. lethargy.

Lampshade Night Mushroom threw away the third victim, and a group of Sleeping Mushrooms immediately surrounded them, continuously releasing mushroom spores to ensure their sleep quality.

The lampshade night mushroom silently returned to its original place, waiting for the next target. This is the only thing they can do for the lord, because it is now facing a formidable enemy.
