"Little sister! But you've trespassed into someone else's backyard. How can you then cry 'Thief!'? Let me, your big sister, teach you a good lesson," Athena said, a cold smirk on her face as she listened to Misty.
"Little brat, teach this arrogant woman a good lesson!" Jessie over there flared up, even forgetting about their positions.
"Don't order us! We'd do it even if you didn't tell us!" Misty immediately retorted, then glared at Athena in front of her.
Meanwhile, on the other side…
Eevee: "Eevee!" (Is that your relative?)
At this moment, the Pokémon, separated from Ash and the others, were walking together, searching for traces of Ash and the others. However, it wasn't going smoothly; they had encountered trouble blocking their way.
The little ones huddled together, looking at a figure taller than the trees not far ahead. In front of it, the trees seemed small.
From behind, a giant brown shell, with two huge cannon muzzles standing upright on its back. It was Blastoise, Squirtle's evolved form. Eevee looked at Squirtle beside him, asking.
Squirtle: "Squirtle, Squirtle!" (I don't know him!)
Pikachu: "Pika-Pika!" (Why don't you go ask for directions?)
Squirtle: "Squirtle?" (Me?)
Squirtle listened to Pikachu, pointed to himself, swallowed, and seeing his other friends looking at him, thought, If I don't go, won't they look down on me? He took a deep breath and cautiously walked out from the tall grass.
Squirtle: "Cough… Squirtle!" (Hey! Big Bro! Hello!)
No matter what, it was best to greet him first. Squirtle walked behind the giant Blastoise and raised his hand to say hello. The colossal figure turned around immediately upon hearing the sound and looked down at Squirtle.
"Blastoise!!"
Upon hearing the sound, Blastoise's shoulder cannons instantly lowered, aiming at Squirtle below.
Squirtle??
Bang!!!
From the muzzles, two powerful jets of water pressure were instantly released, rushing directly towards Squirtle and Pikachu.
Squirtle: "Squirtle, Squirtle!!" (Run!)
In an instant, the little ones were scared and fled, and Blastoise chased after them from behind. Pikachu led the other Pokémon in a desperate escape. At this moment, commotion also came from the opposite direction.
Meowth: "Help, meow!!"
The little ones looked up and saw Meowth, with Arbok and Weezing beside him, also running towards them from ahead. They looked up and saw a massive figure, covered in gray armor, following behind them.
Rhyperior, as huge as Blastoise, frantically chased Meowth and the others. They all saw each other, and also noticed the behemoth behind the other.
Meowth: "Is that the brat's Pikachu and them, meow?"
Weezing: "Weezing!" (There's a monster ahead too!)
Weezing and Arbok were also there, and they also noticed the huge creature behind Pikachu and the others. At this moment, Rhyperior and Blastoise were both furiously charging forward.
Pikachu: "Pika-Pika!" (Quick, dodge!!)
Seeing the pincer attack, Pikachu immediately shouted loudly, taking the lead and leaping aside. Axew and Eevee also followed suit, and Meowth and the others quickly dodged. The two giant figures continued their charge unabated.
Because Pikachu and the others dodged in time, the two large Pokémon were too fast to stop and instantly collided.
Bang!! Boom!!!
With a powerful impact, the two giant Pokémon crashed into each other, instantly emitting a huge sound. The bodies of the two giant Pokémon instantly shattered, their outer shell fragments scattering, and countless internal parts falling out. It was a long time before everything settled.
Meowth: "So these guys were all mechanical creations, meow!"
Meowth and Pikachu saw the situation and realized that these behemoths were all mechanical creations, no wonder they were so huge.
Axew: "Axew?" (What bad things are you guys trying to do here again?)
At this moment, Axew glared unhappily at Meowth and the others. Charmander and the others also looked over.
Meowth: "Hmph! Good heavens, we met you here! This time, we definitely won't let you get away."
Seeing Pikachu and the others, Meowth also looked displeased. He had suffered many times at their hands for so long. Without understanding the situation, he immediately thought of revenge. Slowly, he noticed something was wrong: Arbok and Weezing remained motionless behind him.
Meowth: "What are you doing, meow? Hurry up and finish them off!"
Arbok: "Arbok!" (We only obey our Master's commands!)
Weezing: "Weezing!!" (That's right!)
Meowth: "What?? We're bad guys. Bad guys don't need to care about their Master's feelings."
Arbok: "Arbok, Arbok!!" (We Pokémon have no good or evil. We do bad things because of our Master's commands.)
Weezing: "Weezing!" (That's right, that's right!)
Meowth: "Why! What's wrong with me, meow?"
Meowth listened to Arbok's words, somewhat questioning his life. Although he had once been Boss Giovanni's pet, he hadn't been captured, so theoretically, he didn't have a master now. But why had he continuously done bad things?
Humans couldn't understand Pokémon language, but Arbok inadvertently spoke a truth: Pokémon had no good or evil. They did bad things because they recognized their trainers.
So even if their trainers told them to do bad things, they were willing, just like those poachers. Even if they were involved in the business of selling Pokémon, their own Pokémon still served them.
Squirtle: "Squirtle, Squirtle?" (Who did you say you wouldn't let get away?)
Axew: "Axew?" (Do you want to fight?)
At this moment, Meowth was surrounded by Pikachu and the others. The irritable Squirtle and Axew were eager to fight. Meowth realized he was surrounded and looked at Weezing and Arbok, who remained still.
Meowth: "You… you can't take advantage of the situation!"
Bang bang bang bang!!!
Meowth: "Just kidding, don't take it seriously, don't come over!! Ah!!!! People."
