"Alright, Ash, I've received Heracross and Croconaw!" "Thank you, Professor Oak. I've also received Slowpoke here!" After catching Cloyster, Ash and his group quickly found a Pokémon Center and contacted Professor Oak to exchange Pokémon. Holding Slowpoke's Poké Ball, Ash was just about to find a place to evolve Slowpoke when he noticed Brock, who routinely checked his mail, seemed to have received something good. Brock had a good habit: every time he passed a Pokémon Center, he would check his mailbox.
"Jasmine sent me a mail!" Brock's voice was joyful. This Jasmine was Brock's goal: a top Pokémon breeder. The Vulpix Brock was raising was entrusted to him by Jasmine. "She said she's returned to the Johto region and is going to participate in the Breeder's Competition in Blossom City. She's currently looking for a partner!"
Seeing this, Brock made up his mind. "Ash, I'm sorry to trouble you, and it's a bit out of the way, but I must go!" Seeing Brock's resolve, Ash, of course, wouldn't refuse. "Then let's go! But before that, I have one more thing to do!" "What is it?" Ash mysteriously smiled, leading everyone into the forest on the way to Blossom City. Forests were everywhere in the Johto region. "Totodile, I choose you! Cloyster!" Looking at these two Pokémon, Misty and Brock suddenly realized. Ash's Slowpoke was already extraordinary, capable of commanding all the Slowpoke in the Slowpoke Well; it was a true Slowpoke God. And this Cloyster was also a well-developed Cloyster caught in the Seaking Pond.
Seeing the Slowpoke here, Cloyster instinctively wanted to clamp onto its tail, but Slowpoke moved its tail and dodged, not letting it succeed. "Mei, Big Brother will test you. Do you know how Slowpoke evolves?" Ash rubbed Mei's hair, smiling.
"I know! If a Shellder bites Slowpoke's tail, Slowpoke will evolve into Slowbro!" Mei knew a lot; Professor Elm taught her very well. "Today, Big Brother will show you another evolution of Slowpoke!" Ash walked towards the Cloyster that was still trying to chase Slowpoke's tail. He picked it up and held it in his arms, then looked at Slowpoke, who was staring intently at him. "Slowpoke, it's finally time to evolve!" Slowpoke's expression looked somewhat dazed, but its eyes revealed a look of anticipation! "System, exchange King's Rock!" The King's Rock was a very valuable item.
It was both a battle-influencing item and an evolution-holding item. A Pokémon holding this item might make its opponent flinch when attacking, preventing them from moving or battling. It could also evolve Slowpoke into Slowking, and Misty's Poliwhirl into Politoed! The King's Rock Ash exchanged was also a system product, an absolutely good item. He placed the King's Rock on Slowpoke's head, then held Cloyster and directly placed it on Slowpoke's head! At that moment, the light of evolution shone! "How is that possible?!" Brock and Misty were stunned. *Making Cloyster bite its head—what kind of divine operation is that?!* And the light of evolution really appeared! Slowpoke, originally lying on the ground, stood up in the light of evolution.
The original scallop-shaped Cloyster transformed into a spiral shape, becoming a crown that appeared on its head! A red and white cloak grew around its neck, adding to its noble appearance! Light burst forth, and a pair of wise eyes appeared before Ash and his group. This was Slowking, possessing genius-level intelligence and the ability to freely manipulate psychic powers! Slowking was always unhurried and composed, earning it the title of "Sage of the Sea!" Ash's Slowpoke was already somewhat larger in size and exceptionally well-trained. Now, after evolving into Slowking, its size was, of course, even larger. Including the shell crown on its head, this Slowking was a full 2.2 meters tall, and Ash had to look up to meet its eyes.
Name: Slowking (♂) Type: Water, Psychic Ability: Regenerator Bond Value: 245/255 Moves: Heal Pulse, Power Gem, Hidden Power, Yawn, Confusion, Calm Mind, Water Pulse, Psychic, Zen Headbutt, Hydro Pump, Rain Dance, Blizzard, Trick Room "Slowking, pleased to meet you!"
After evolving, Slowking's compatibility immediately topped the charts, with only 10 points left in its bond value! "Thank you, Ash!" A voice suddenly appeared in Ash's mind, sounding young yet steady. Ash shook his head and looked at Brock, Misty, and Mei beside him, but found that they were just staring at Slowking in shock, still not having reacted. He suddenly realized something and looked at Slowking. "Slowking, is that your voice? Telepathy?" But Slowking shook its head.
"I haven't reached that level yet, but I've found that there's a magical bond between you and me, allowing us to sense each other's thoughts!" In other words, Slowking could only communicate with Ash in this manner. Slowking: 248/255 "Ash, is this Slowking?" Brock was the first to snap back to reality, but his voice still trembled from too much shock. "Slowking, so amazing!" Mei ran over, coming to Ash and Slowking's side. Slowking looked at her calmly, blue light shining in its eyes, causing Mei to float steadily in the air. "Haha, so fun!" Slowking: 251/255 *Thump! Thump!* The heartbeat sound that now echoed in Ash's ears was steady and powerful! "Brock, let's have a battle!" Ash extended an invitation!
"No, I will!" Before Brock could take out a Poké Ball, Misty snatched it, throwing out her Starmie's Poké Ball! The evolved Starmie also possessed Water and Psychic types! "Starmie, use Hydro Pump!" This was a powerful Water-type special attack, equivalent in status to the Fire-type Flamethrower! However, Ash gave no commands, and Slowking remained calm and composed. Only when Hydro Pump came close did Slowking make a move. The wise eyes flashed with blue light.
This was an advanced version of the Confusion move: Psychic! Psychic formed a stable barrier around Slowking. This was clearly Mewtwo's fighting style! Slowking: 253/255 "Slowking, let's get some exercise too!" "Trick Room!" A blue light flashed, and a container-sized space enveloped both Slowking and Starmie, then vanished as if nothing had happened. Misty was a little confused; she didn't quite understand this obscure move, having never seen it before. "Alright, Starmie, use Swift!" As the name suggested, this move was very fast, and it was a guaranteed hit! "Zen Headbutt!" However, facing Starmie's Swift, Ash commanded a slower move that required charging! Just as everyone thought Ash was going to take Swift head-on, Slowking's figure suddenly appeared in front of Starmie, hitting it with a headbutt and sending it flying. At this point, the victory was already decided! Then... Slowking: 255/255!
