Pokémon: Start with a Dragon-type Gym Leader, and pick up Guroton.

Chapter 278 Guiding Intelligent Spraying, Turning the Tide Back from the Wrong Path

On the field, Charizard was truly isolated and helpless.

Without Gengar, how can it contend with Hoopa?

"Hehe, now you're out of options, aren't you? I told you to cooperate, to cooperate, but you two went your separate ways without any foresight or prediction. You're just going to get picked off one by one by me, aren't you?"

Hoopa's eyes showed pity, and her tone became increasingly helpless: "Your strength is so poor, yet you still don't listen to your trainers' commands. If you were obedient, your trainers wouldn't be so indifferent. Now, you don't even have a chance to fight back."

"Pfft!" (You're talking nonsense!)

Charizard was furious. This time, it didn't even use its flames. Its claws glowed with a blue light as it unleashed its Dragon Claw attack, slashing directly at Hoopa!

"Sigh, it's no use."

Hoopa unleashed its golden ring once more, teleporting Charizard's attack directly behind it.

The dragon's claws were about to strike when Charizard realized it couldn't continue fighting, or it would only get hurt!

Charizard quickly retracted its arm, then lashed out with its tail, attempting to injure Hoopa even slightly...

As long as I can hit Hoopa, it means I am not incompetent!

But the more you try to do this, the less effective it becomes.

Hoopa didn't even glance at it before diving into the golden ring and getting behind Charizard. A Shadow Ball exploded behind it, the impact almost sending it crashing to the ground.

"roar……"

The fire-breathing dragon was panting heavily, white breath coming out of its nostrils.

Right now, it's completely helpless against Hoopa's Golden Ring tactic; it has absolutely no way to counter it...

Either my moves are teleported, or Hupa is hiding in the golden ring. How am I supposed to fight?

Holy crap, how can there be such an unsolvable move?

Charizard's defenses have been broken.

"I told you you're stubborn, but you wouldn't believe me. If there had been a trainer acting as a third-party observer, they would definitely have found a way to break my Golden Ring. What a pity, your trainer is so good to you, why do you just not listen to his commands?"

Hoopa and Ash had a brief time together.

This left Hoopa puzzled as to why Ash's team had so many legendary Pokémon.

Help the enemy, and crush my teammates!

"Roar..."

Charizard fell into deep thought.

Since evolving, it has discovered that its power is greater than when it was a Charmander.

But his trainer is still a newbie.

Until it evolved into Charizard, Ash felt increasingly inadequate as a trainer.

But now, after listening to Hoopa's words, Charizard has also looked back on the past.

Since evolving, it has obeyed Ash's commands very rarely.

I've heard that Ash Ketchum has consistently won all his battles.

Charizard had to admit that Ash deserved a lot of credit for this.

This is an objective fact, and it has made Charizard re-evaluate Ash's abilities.

"Therefore, trainers play a very important role in Pokémon battles. If you ignore your trainer's advice and go it alone in battle, you will suffer a great loss."

Even though Hoopa is small now, it shows the demeanor of an elder, saying earnestly, "Just like now, you and Gengar have no synergy at all. Even though there are two Pokémon, the sum of its parts is less than the sum of its parts. That's why I gradually defeated them, and now you're the only one left."

"Roar..."

Charizard didn't refute, but instead turned to look at Ash.

It asked itself honestly, and realized that Ash had been incredibly good to it.

But why would I treat Satoshi like this?

"In short, you've become far too arrogant."

Li Luochen, who saw through Charizard's thoughts, spoke directly.

This statement hits the nail on the head.

Seeing how much Charizard had expanded, Li Luochen knew why.

After evolving, Charizard's strength was greatly enhanced.

In Ash's team, most of the Pokémon did not evolve into their final forms, and several of them did not even evolve.

This makes Charizard look down on other Pokémon.

For example, Squirtle and Bulbasaur.

Pokémon like Pidgeotto and Pikachu, which have only evolved once, are no better off.

Only the final evolutions of Gengar and Aerodactyl, as well as beings that are born in their final form, can earn Charizard's respect.

Over time, Charizard, which already looked down on Ash, became even less willing to follow Ash's commands.

Charizard acts like a big shot.

They listen to commands when they're willing, and lie around doing nothing when they're not.

All I can say is that thankfully, we haven't reached the Quartz Conference yet.

Otherwise, we'll see situations like a useless Charizard that flops in the round of 16.

There's no way to deny that.

Charizard is just plain unremarkable.

They didn't give Xiaozhi any face at all.

"That's right, Benpa used to be incredibly strong, but even someone as powerful as Benpa never disobeyed. If you ask me, you're an elite Pokémon, practically raised by your trainer, right? To still disobey under these circumstances would be utterly ungrateful, wouldn't it?"

Ever since Hoopa met Ash, he has never understood why Charizard is disobedient.

"In my opinion, this Charizard is arrogant and haughty. Due to the extreme treatment it received from another trainer when it was young, it was captured by that boy and trained for a period of time before evolving. This arrogant and haughty personality was amplified, which led to this situation."

Zygard, who was perched on Li Luochen's shoulder, also came out and explained the situation.

Its cells are found all over the world; I just used cells to search for the history of the Charizard.

Having gained a general understanding, Zygarde, who has a deep understanding of Pokémon personalities, knows about another layer of factors.

"Alright, this Charizard is so disobedient, there's only one outcome if we continue fighting. Charizard, I hope you can talk to your trainer more often and stop being so arrogant and looking down on everyone."

Li Luochen waved his hand, summoning his Charizard over:

"My Charizard has strength close to that of an Elite Four member. Although it sometimes acts a bit silly, it never misbehaves when it needs to be serious."

"Roar!" (Indeed, it's normal for Charizards to be arrogant and haughty, but they also need to understand the situation. Use what's beneficial to them and ignore what's not. Don't think you're the best in the world. With your personality, you won't even be able to find a mother Charizard in the future.)

Dust Spray, holding little Latias, offered wisdom from an elder to Wisdom Spray.

[Damn it, even Gym Leader Luo Chen's Charizard has found a mate...]

[Did the legendary Pokémon guy's Charizard find a legendary Pokémon as a partner? I want to be Li Luochen's Pokémon too, what should I do?]

The audience couldn't understand what Charizard was saying.

However, the way he was holding little Latias was completely exposed to the public.

It makes people envious.

Hey, mythical beast man.

After pondering for a long time, Zhipeng slowly turned around and walked towards Xiaozhi.

"Roar!" (Just so you know, I won't listen to any commands you give that aren't working!)
