I'm the Owner of the Pokémon Day Care In the World of Pokémon

Chapter 900: Fierce Battle



Chapter 900: Fierce Battle

As Yuga's Gengar returned to the Shadow Space, voices could be heard echoing in the cave.

"Both of those little lambs are asleep, right?" It was the voice of Midori.

Billy replied, "My Gengar used Hypnosis on them."

Midori chuckled and said, "Then they must be fast asleep. Our boss is always cautious. I would say we could have dealt with them during the day; there was no need to wait until night."

"Our boss has his own way of thinking," Satoshi quietly commented.

Billy added, "Being cautious doesn't hurt. I find these two rather strange. Who knows what tricks they might have up their sleeves."

Midori pursed his lips and remained silent at that.

Then, a quiet rustling sound filled the cave as the three men approached Yuga and Cynthia.

"Let me see if they have anything good on them," Midori said with a sly smile, reaching out toward Yuga's spatial backpack.

"Maybe we should first check if they have any identification to see who they really are," Satoshi reminded. He couldn't shake the feeling that these two were suspicious, young as they were, to venture so deep into Snowpeak Mountain.

All trainers in the Sinnoh region knew that the riskiest adventure area in Sinnoh was the Coronet Highlands, and the most dangerous part of the Coronet Highlands was Mount Coronet.

Very few people ventured into Mount Coronet, and even other trainers or adventurers who came to the Coronet Highlands typically explored other areas. Going deep into the snowy peaks of Mount Coronet was an entirely different level of risk.

"Yes, yes, yes! You talk too much. Why don't you do it yourself if you're so capable!" Midori retorted, unconcerned about Satoshi's words.

Satoshi didn't bother arguing with Midori. He simply stood quietly behind Billy.

As Midori reached for the spatial backpack that Yuga had placed behind him, Yuga's eyes snapped open, and he glared at Midori with an intense, piercing gaze. Midori let out a startled cry.

"What's wrong?" Satoshi immediately asked.

Midori wanted to speak but found himself unable to. He couldn't move, let alone make a sound. A Gengar slowly emerged from the ground, grinned widely at him.

Due to the dim lighting in the cave and Yuga's body blocking their view, Billy and Satoshi couldn't see the Gengar fully, only catching a glimpse of its half-exposed body. But Midori was terrified, and his heart nearly stopped.

"Midori, hurry up!" Billy impatiently urged when he saw Midori frozen in place.

Just as Midori was about to react, a horrifying, shrill scream echoed through the cave, causing both Billy and Satoshi to shudder. Then, a Gengar fell from the cave's ceiling, crashing down right in front of Billy and Satoshi.

Billy's eyes widened in shock. "Isn't this my Gengar? What's happening?"

Before Billy could think further, his other two Gengar panickedly fled from the shadows, and an eerie laughter echoed in the cave.

Cynthia's Spiritomb slowly materialized from the darkness, the patterns on its energy body emitting a pale green light, and its ghostly-like form swaying constantly.

Billy's remaining two Gengar also attempted to flee, but Spiritomb fired two Dark Pulse, following in the footsteps of the first Gengar.

These three Gengar were Pokémon trained by Billy for surveillance purposes, with low potential and weak strength, unable to withstand the single attack from Cynthia's Spiritomb, who was at the Elite level Pokémon.

Realizing what had happened, Billy exclaimed angrily, "You haven't been affected by Hypnosis!"

Yuga slowly stood up from the ground, holding Midori, who was immobilized. He said, "Of course not. If we didn't act like it, how would you dare to make a move against us? You didn't attack us first, did you?"

During the day, Yuga could have easily captured these three individuals and interrogated them, but he wanted to maintain a sense of decency and avoid unnecessary violence.

Hearing Yuga's response, Billy and Satoshi were taken aback. It seemed that they had underestimated Yuga and Cynthia.

At this moment, Cynthia brushed off her clothes and also stood up from the ground. Throughout the encounter, both of them had remained alert and conscious.

Billy demanded with a cold tone, "Who are you people? Why are you targeting us?"

Yuga responded, "Actually, that's the question we should be asking you. Who are you, what were you doing on the snow peak, and why did you arouse the anger of the Snowpeak King? Besides, we weren't the ones who initiated the attack!"

Billy was fuming. "It looks like you won't learn unless you face some trouble."

Saying that, he took out two Poké Balls.

Midori, the hostage, widened his eyes in panic, realizing that he was still in someone else's hands.

But due to the Gengar's Mean Look, he couldn't utter a word.

Billy tossed the Poké Balls, and a Weavile and a Toxicroak appeared in the cave.

Satoshi, standing beside Billy, also released two Pokémon: a Drapion and a Probopass.

Yuga used a karate chop on the back of Midori's head and then said to Billy, "Are you sure you want to fight here? This cave might collapse."

After saying that, he tossed the unconscious Midori aside.

Billy was furious. "Enough talking!"

As he spoke, Weavile and Toxicroak launched an attack on Yuga and Cynthia.

Weavile aimed for Yuga's neck with a Night Slash, while Toxicroak targeted Cynthia's abdomen with a Poison Jab.

Both Weavile and Toxicroak were Pokémon with excellent night vision, allowing them to accurately launch their attacks.

The Gengar behind Yuga appeared in front of him in an instant, forming a shadow using Night Shade and punch Weavile, force it to retreat.

Cynthia's Spiritomb flew to her head and used Psychic to stop Toxicroak's charge before throwing it aside.

Weavile retreated to the side of Drapion, which caught it, while Toxicroak collided with Probopass.

Seeing his Pokémon lose in a single confrontation, Billy narrowed his eyes and asked the two again, "Who are you people?"

These were obviously two Trainers of the Elite level, and such young Elite level Trainers should not be unknown.

In fact, Billy had heard both the names Shimizu Yuga and Cynthia, but he had never met them in person, so he couldn't immediately associate them with their identities.

"You don't need to know who we are. Just make sure to explain everything you need to confess clearly," Cynthia said while directing her Spiritomb to counterattack. She showed no mercy to those who disrupted the order of Snowpeak Mountain and endangered Machina.

The eerie wind from Spiritomb carried a chilling aura as it blew towards the opposing Pokémon. With each gust, Spiritomb's aura increased in strength.

The Omnious Wind could randomly boost one of the user's five stats (Attack, Defense, Special Defense, Special Attack, and Speed), but the probability was very low, around ten percent. However, Cynthia's Spiritomb seemed to be exceptionally lucky today, as it almost always boosted one of its stats.

The bone-chilling breeze made the opposing four Pokémon shiver, and they began to counterattack.

Weavile fired an Ice Beam, Toxicroak launched a Sludge Bomb, Drapion used Dark Pulse, and Probopass unleashed a Power Gem. These attacks were all aimed at Spiritomb, which was still surrounded by the Omnious Wind.

Yuga's Gengar couldn't allow them to harm Spiritomb, so it used a move called "Phantom Force" to to send Spiritomb to Yuga along with Cynthia, and then he appeared again in their place.

However, Gengar was disappear from its current location just as the attacks were about to hit. The four attacks missed their target but struck the cave's ceiling, causing large rocks to fall.

Seeing this, Yuga's expression changed. "Not good, this place is collapsing. We need to get out of here."

Cynthia nodded and immediately followed Yuga as they ran toward the cave's entrance, with Gengar and Spiritomb flying close behind.

Billy and Satoshi, upon realizing the situation, also sprinted for the exit. However, among their four Pokémon, Drapion, Toxicroak, and Probopass, were relatively large in size, causing them to panic as they attempted to escape.

At this moment, Yuga turned back and shouted, "Hey, what about your companion named Midori?"

Only then did Billy and Satoshi remember that Midori was still unconscious and had been left behind in the cave by Yuga.

Seeing that the cave was about to collapse completely, and with their Pokémon struggling to get out, Billy gritted his teeth and decided not to go back for Midori.

Billy had no intention of caring for Midori, and Satoshi was even less inclined to do so. Midori had not treated Satoshi well in the past, and while he didn't voice his grievances, it didn't mean he had no resentment.

At this point, Yuga turned around and said, "You guys are such great friends!"

Billy was on the verge of losing his temper, and his eyes were practically shooting flames at Yuga. However, in the darkness of the night, Yuga couldn't see the expressions of Billy and Satoshi. They could only make out each other's silhouettes.

Just as Billy and Satoshi and their four Pokémon rushed out of the cave, it collapsed with a deafening roar. To make matters worse, Yuga and Cynthia were waiting not far away with their strongest Pokémon, Garchomp and Lapras.

Yes, as soon as Yuga and Cynthia exited the cave, they recalled Gengar and Spiritomb and released their most powerful Pokémon, Garchomp and Lapras.

However, what everyone was unaware of was that when the cave collapsed with a thunderous noise, ripples appeared on the calm surface of the valley's pond outside.

Without giving Billy and Satoshi any time to react, Garchomp made a powerful dash to their side. Its two scythe-like dragon claws grabbed Toxicroak and Drapion, pinning them against the cave wall.

Bang! Bang!

The two Pokémon let out cries of agony.

Awaiting Probopass and Weavile were two massive Hydro Pump. The tremendous impact sent them flying, and their cries soon followed.

Faced with the fierce attacks of Lapras and Garchomp, the less powerful Drapion and Probopass immediately lost their combat capabilities. Only Billy's Weavile and Toxicroak remained, struggling in vain.

Being caught by Snowpeak King, Satoshi had already sacrificed all his other Pokémon. Now, only Drapion and Probopass remained.

As Drapion fell, Garchomp withdrew one dragon claw and slammed it brutally onto Toxicroak, which was still pinned beneath it. Toxicroak let out another agonized cry.

Weavile managed to crawl to its feet, shook off the water stains, and began leaping frantically to avoid the next wave of attacks from Garchomp and Lapras.

However, in the eyes of Lapras, its movements weren't considered fast. Another Hydro Pump shot out, and Weavile raised its twin claws to block it but was still sent flying.

"You two!!!"

Billy roared in anger. He was filled with rage, as it had been a long time since he had been this furious.

Seeing his Toxicroak and Weavile being overwhelmed, he took out two more Poké Balls and released an Magnezone and a Machamp.

These were his last two Pokémon, and he had originally planned to rely on them to escape from Snowpeak Mountain. But he never expected to encounter Yuga and Cynthia.

Seeing Billy release two more Pokémon, Yuga and Cynthia both exclaimed simultaneously.

"Garchomp, Dragon Rush!"

"Lapras, Sheer Cold!"

Garchomp shook off the pinned Toxicroak and flew into the air, using Dragon Rush on Magnezone. Magnezone had just appeared and hadn't even had a chance to attack before being knocked out.

The same fate befell Machamp.

Lapras opened its mouth and released a bitterly cold white stream of air. As soon as it touched Machamp, it was frozen into an ice sculpture.

Weavile, not far from Machamp, was also caught by the Sheer Cold wave. It was just grazed by the white stream of air, but its whole body was frozen stiff, despite being an Ice-type Pokémon. It collapsed to the ground.

Having dealt with Magnezone, Garchomp picked up the nearly unconscious Toxicroak, shook it a few times, and Toxicroak passed out.

The battle ended quickly, but Billy and Satoshi's faces turned pale. They hadn't expected the opponents to be this strong.

At this moment, the day finally dawned.
