Yubel currently has over 30 Pokémon, but only 3 are currently trained: Kingler (Lv 37), Gloom (Lv 35), and Charmeleon (Lv 33). The remaining Pokémon have not yet been trained.
Because Gloom cannot battle too much right now, Yubel put Kingler and Charmeleon on the front line.
"Kingler, you battle Crawdaunt. Be careful not to get hit by Crawdaunt!" Yubel shouted at Kingler. Kingler flapped its claws and accepted the order.
"Charmeleon, you battle Kingler. Let me watch a battle of water and fire intertwined." Yubel looked at Charmeleon. Charmeleon showed a bewildered expression. Yubel didn't know what kind of unexpected move this fool would pull off again.
"Corphish and Kingler, you two attack. Gloom, protect me." After Yubel gave his orders, Gloom suddenly guarded Yubel's side.
Crawdaunt stood up irritably. Two huge claws spread open. The left claw used Bubble Beam. The right claw used Water Gun.
Water Gun and Bubble Beam clashed together, producing countless bubbles.
Crawdaunt's figure was hidden beneath the bubbles.
"Kingler use Blizzard. Charmeleon use Flamethrower." This was a double attack. The Flamethrower was strengthened by the Blizzard, amplifying its size to twice its original size.
The thick flames burned away Crawdaunt's bubbles. Crawdaunt and Kingler had already fallen.
Two giant deep pits and countless small deep pits appeared on the beach. This was the effect of Dig.
Not only Crawdaunt and Kingler, but even Kingler and Corphish had buried themselves in the sand, continuously swimming underground, as if they were a school of fish on the beach.
The flowing sand became the best protection. Even Tangela's Petal Blizzard's power was greatly reduced by the obstruction of the sand.
Crawdaunt and Kingler occasionally extended their large claws from the sand, using Bubble Beam on Kingler and Charmeleon.
Crawdaunt and Kingler led the Corphish army, using the essence of underground warfare to the fullest.
"Hmph, you think you can hide in the sand, and I can't do anything about you? Charmeleon, use Flamethrower. Kingler use Blizzard!" Yubel pointed in one direction, commanding Charmeleon and Kingler.
Flamethrower erupted from Charmeleon's mouth. Crawdaunt and Kingler were like mosquitoes, making Charmeleon unable to feel angry.
Kingler, on the other hand, was much calmer. It didn't see the opponent. As long as the trainer commanded it, it wouldn't care about them.
Flamethrower heavily slammed onto the beach. With a rumble, Flamethrower, aided by Kingler's Blizzard, turned the sand into glass crystals.
"Again!" Yubel said calmly. To break through Crawdaunt's and Kingler's underground combat technique, he would burn the sand into glass. Crawdaunt and Kingler naturally had no form to conceal.
Corphish and Kingler couldn't hold back first. They were like their entire bodies were on fire, surging out of the bubbling sand. Their whole bodies turned red, and they were already brought away by Tangela's Petal Blizzard, which was already fully prepared.
Crawdaunt and Kingler were finally forced to emerge from the sand in desperation. They were very ferocious, covered in burn marks.
"Charmeleon, Flamethrower. Kingler, Air Slash. Tangela, use Petal Blizzard." Tangela was a bit exhausted from using two Petal Blizzards continuously. It forced itself to use Petal Blizzard under Solrock's Aura Sphere's healing.
The leaves of Petal Blizzard were instantly burned to ashes by the Flamethrower, forming a giant fire tornado. Air Slash rushed out from the fire tornado. The outer edge of Air Slash was covered in a blazing hot aura.
Air Slash heavily struck the dodging Crawdaunt. Crawdaunt's hard shell cracked, forming a gap, and then shattered into pieces.
Kingler, on the other hand, recklessly used its giant claw to grab Crawdaunt, using its own claw.
The scene smelled of roasted prawns. Kingler, struck by a fiery Air Slash, turned completely red at this moment, as if it had been cooked.
Kingler, with a grimace, threw Crawdaunt aside. It opened its huge claw, and the power of Hyper Beam continuously accumulated.
Facing the approaching fire tornado, Kingler first used Bubble Beam with its small claw, weakening the fire tornado's power, then used Hyper Beam to split the fire tornado in two.
Kingler bared its teeth and brandished its claws. It used Water Cannon on Charmeleon. It had a premonition that if it didn't defeat Charmeleon, it would surely become Crawdaunt's dust.
Unfortunately, although Kingler understood the principle of type effectiveness, it didn't understand that when Fire-type power exceeded Water-type power, it would not be suppressed.
Charmeleon looked at the approaching Water Cannon. A trace of coldness appeared in its eyes. The high temperature on Charmeleon's body could reach 2000 degrees. As a Pokémon living in an active volcano, Charmeleon theoretically wouldn't fear any Water-type ultimate moves.
Water Cannon struck Charmeleon's body, emitting a huge white smoke. Charmeleon was covered in a layer of flame armor.
The power of the Water Cannon did not cause Charmeleon any trouble. Instead, Charmeleon, step by step, like a descending Red Lotus Demon God, walked towards Kingler.
Yubel felt that Kingler's failure was due to it overestimating its own strength.
If Kingler could use Surf in the sea, Kingler and Crawdaunt wouldn't be so helpless.
Kingler's giant claw emitted a white glow.
"Be careful, Charmeleon, Kingler might use Rock Slide!" Yubel shouted loudly, reminding it. But he saw Charmeleon slightly move to the left, and Kingler's white glow scraped past its shoulder.
Rock Slide didn't hit Charmeleon. Instead, Charmeleon clenched its fist. Its fist transformed into a huge fireball. It delivered a fiery punch to Kingler's continuous joints.
With only a thump, Kingler fell to the ground powerlessly. Without a powerful attacking weapon, Kingler panicked.
Just as it was about to dive into the sea, its back was struck by Charmeleon's Flamethrower. Its entire shell caved in, leaving a huge indentation.
Kingler's eyes almost popped out. Kingler felt its internal organs burning in the flames. It was just a little short of being able to dive into the sea.
Relying on Kingler's movement speed in the water, Kingler had an 80% chance of escaping alive. Kingler was unwilling, having not expected to die here. Kingler lost consciousness and fell into darkness.
Kingler heavily fell to the ground, motionless. The air diffused a roasted prawn aroma. Charmeleon, on the other hand, blew on its fist.
Yubel looked at the cracked shell of Crawdaunt and Kingler's broken body. He was speechless.
This was important merchandise! It was crushed by this useless Charmeleon like this.
However, Kingler's claws seemed edible. Yubel greedily swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Go, Poké Ball!" Yubel directly threw out two Poké Balls. Perhaps because Kingler and Crawdaunt's injuries were too severe, neither Poké Ball glowed red. They were directly shown to be captured.
Under the faint stars of the night, Yubel lit a bonfire on the beach. Wild birds had long been divided into small, evenly sized pieces by Kingler. They were placed in a wok from Yubel's backpack and boiled over a roaring fire. Yubel also put pine mushrooms in the wok.
Kingler's large claws were also divided into countless small pieces by Kingler. Combined with the truly delicious crabs on the beach, the savory soup exuded an enticing aroma.
...
Many Pokémon are edible, and quite delicious. The most famous is the Octillery, which comes with its own seasoning. Its fresh and tender meat makes Octillery a rare delicacy. Kingler, Crawdaunt, and Corphish are also common Pokémon delicacies.
However, Yubel would not take this step. He considered Pokémon to be intelligent beings just like humans. But he absolutely must not touch this mouth-watering treat.
The previous Alliance leader legislated that humans are not allowed to eat Pokémon. Once discovered, they would be sentenced to half a month to three years in prison, depending on the crime.
However, if it is an edible part that can quickly grow back, it is not within the scope of this law's restrictions. The edible parts refer to the tails of Slowbro, Kingler, and Slowbro.
Slowbro's tail, after artificial cultivation, can grow rapidly. As long as Slowbro's nutrition is supplemented in time, it will not reduce Slowbro's lifespan.
Therefore, establishing a Slowbro farm requires a series of strict procedures. If any trace of mistreating Slowbro is found, the farm will be immediately shut down for rectification.
Kingler's and Crawdaunt's claws can only be eaten if they naturally fall off. Kingler and Crawdaunt replacing their claws is quite frequent, because of long-term battles, Kingler's and Crawdaunt's claws are replaced almost every month.
The reason why Charmeleon was able to knock off Kingler's claws was one aspect of Charmeleon's strength. Kingler's claws were already being replaced.
After all the Pokémon had eaten and drunk their fill, Yubel looked at the remaining Poké Balls in his hand. There weren't many left. He had used almost all of the Poké Balls he had.
Now Yubel still had six Poison Jab Tentacruel, one Kingler, and one Crawdaunt. These were all Pokémon with not much potential.
Yubel remembered that there was a specialized Pokémon acquisition point in the Viridian Forest area that bought potential Water-type Pokémon. The acquisition point would offer 30% more than the market price.
This acquisition point was set up by the Water-type team. Its main purpose was to acquire potential Pokémon for the team leader.
Of course, there was also a specialized acquisition point for Fire-type and Ground-type Pokémon. This one was naturally set up by Team Rocket.
