A crisp sound of steel colliding rang out, and a large silver bird, its entire body encased in steel, suddenly appeared beside Athena, blocking Pikachu's attack.
Golden electricity crackled across its body, but the steel bird paid no heed. It raised its metal wings and swept them towards Pikachu!
"Pikachu!"
"..."
Pikachu cried out in pain and was sent flying, only to be caught by Red in mid-air.
"Black mist!"
"Cha-bo!"
At the same time, Arbok also escaped Charizard's clutches, using its tail to knock Charizard back several meters before arriving beside Athena.
He took a deep breath and exhaled a cloud of black mist carrying a chill, enveloping himself, Athena, and the giant steel bird within it.
It disappeared from sight, in the crimson light.
"Spray flames!"
"Roar~!"
At this moment, Charmeleon arrived in front of the black mist and unleashed a flamethrower, burning the chilly black mist completely.
But behind the black fog, there was no trace of Athena, only the exit that shone with the light of dawn!
"..."
Seeing this, Red shook his head slightly, picked up the injured Pikachu, and walked towards the exit with the equally injured Charmeleon, leaving the passage.
...
...
Outside the passage, in a forest.
It was now morning.
"Kid, you're lucky this time. Next time, I'll show you what it means to be a grown man!"
Athena stood high above (cdbg) on the back of the giant steel bird, watching the crimson figure emerge from the passage.
After leaving behind a threatening statement, upon hearing the sirens in Yuhong City, he quickly mounted the giant steel bird and flew off in a certain direction.
"..."
Crimson had no choice but to stand there, watching Athena's back as she gradually faded into a dot on the horizon.
There was nothing he could do; he didn't have a Pokémon that could fly, and besides, his current strength was indeed far inferior to his opponent's.
The reason I was able to keep chasing and beating him before was entirely due to his mindset; he didn't want to fight me.
If she could harden her heart, with that mid-level Elite Four level Arbok and that mid-level Elite Four level Skarmory, she could definitely take him down.
However, he might be left behind by the Alliance afterward, which is why Athena, despite being far stronger than him, still chose to retreat.
"Roar..."
Beside him, Charizard, bearing numerous wounds, looked grave as he gazed at Skarmory that had carried Athena away, his heart filled with resentment.
If it could become stronger...
"Charmeleon, no..."
Red noticed Charmeleon's condition and turned around, about to say something to comfort it.
But then he suddenly saw the Charmander's gaze, full of resentment yet unusually determined, which made him freeze in place.
One person and one pet, gazing at each other here.
...
...
On the other side, in Yuhong City.
boom! ! !
Suddenly, the Yuhong Game Center shook violently, causing the ground to tremble and many buildings to collapse.
Fortunately, due to Crimson's intrusion, the arcade was temporarily closed to deal with him, and there were no visitors inside.
By dawn, the sun had already risen high in the sky.
The League members had already searched the Jade Rainbow Game Center and also investigated it, naturally discovering the collapsed Team Rocket underground base hidden underground.
"Miss Rika, look at that!"
At this moment, Rika, leading a group of elite trainers, came to explore Team Rocket's underground base.
Led by a girl with a blue ponytail, they arrived at a twisted and unrecognizable iron gate, still bearing traces of fire-based skills.
"Is it really you?"
Touching the iron gate, where fire-based skills had left their mark, and feeling its warmth, Rika squinted and murmured to herself.
"I didn't expect to be one step behind you again..."

P.S.: A huge thank you to [Guangling Guantao] for the monthly pass!
137. After the rain, there was no sunshine, only darkness! (Please subscribe to the full list!)
On Route 7, in the eastern part of Yuhong City!
evening!.
A temporary campsite beside a stream.
At this moment, the atmosphere was somewhat heavy, and the air was somewhat quiet.
Charmeleon, Pikachu, Cubone, Snorlax, and Axew were all gathered around Crimson, keeping him company.
"..."
Crimson, on the other hand, stared nervously at the colorful crystal in front of him, which shimmered with nine-colored light, with waves of calming energy flowing over it.
Eevee, who wasn't beside Crimson, was also inside this colorful crystal, enveloped within it.
After a day of rest, Crimson finished her meal and then took the nine-colored crystal that had been replenished with natural energy.
It was given to Eevee, letting it choose whether to use the nine-colored crystal or not.
And this is the scene before our eyes.
It was Eevee who, after making the final decision, chose to use the nine-colored crystal that had been replenished with energy, and this is what happened.
Ibrahimovic has been inside the colorful crystal for about half an hour now.
"Pikachu!"
Pikachu, lying on the crimson leg, saw the worried look on his face, got up, patted his shoulder, and gave him a comforting cry.
"Roar!"
"Click!"
"Click!"
"Axe~teeth~!"
Charmeleon, Cubone, Snorlax, and Axew also called out to Crimson in a comforting voice.
"It's nothing, thank you everyone..."
Seeing the Pokémon's reaction, Red couldn't help but smile slightly, his tense brows relaxing a little as he calmly responded.
At the same time, his eyes were constantly filled with the aura of crimson power, as he probed Eevee's aura.
At least for now, Ibrahimovic's breathing is relatively stable, which is good news.
But beyond that.
Red knew nothing about Eevee's specific situation.
All he could do now was use his crimson power to constantly probe for any aura, gazing at the colorful crystal with a worried expression.
It's unclear whether this nine-colored crystal will be effective for Eevee, or whether it can help Eevee resolve its genetic issues.
Everything is still unknown!
...
...
Time flows.
Before we knew it, it was already late at night.
At this moment, the sky was completely covered by night, and the bright moon hung high in the night sky.
Despite their reluctance, the Pokémon obediently fell asleep under Red's insistence.
However, they still lingered around Crimson, wanting to stay by her side.
"..."
Red, feeling both touched and helpless, looked at the Pokémon that had "fallen asleep," gently shook his head, and then continued to focus his gaze on the colorful crystal ahead.
Let's wait and see what happens to Ibrahimovic.
...
...
Time passed little by little.
The bright moon in the night sky gradually slid down.
"..."
Originally focused on the colorful crystals, Eevee's crimson eyes unconsciously narrowed.
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself in what seemed to be another strange place.
