Pokémon: The Journey Begins with a Cowherd

Chapter 90 Evolutionary Crisis!

After defeating Eevee, Qingyuan fought two more battles with Slowpoke in the morning.

They successfully advanced to the top 16 and joined the team vying for the championship.

During lunch, Qingyuan took the opportunity to visit the Scorpions who were training in the training room.

Last night, after careful consideration, in order not to waste everyone's time, he decided to...

He put all the Pokémon except for Slowpoke, which needed to compete, into Mr. Iron Rock's training room.

This way, when Qingyuan is playing matches during the day, there's no need to worry about Cat Boss and the others wasting time and not being able to train.

In response to Qingyuan's proposal, Tieyan held the belief that teaching one Pokémon is the same as teaching a group of Pokémon.

He readily agreed to his proposal.

Furthermore, in order to allow the spirits of Qingyuan to receive more thorough training.

Tieyan also arranged for two of his old buddies to help him spar with the cat boss and the others.

Although Qingyuan thought that Tieyan might be looking for sandbags for his companions.

But the thought of letting the cat bosses and the others train against high-level Pokémon isn't a bad thing.

He happily placed the cats in the training room, believing that after a few days of training...

The cats will definitely undergo a complete transformation.

When Qingyuan arrived at the training room, the atmosphere inside was very intense.

Scorpio is battling with a lobster using its claw hammer. After a day of learning, Scorpio has mastered the use of the claw hammer.

However, they weren't very skilled at it, so they were taught how to use the crab claw hammer.

The iron-clawed lobster came up with the idea of ​​skillfully using its claws to fight the scorpion.

Although Scorpios often end up getting beaten up, they seem to enjoy it.

Meanwhile, the cat boss was sparring with Slowpoke. Slowpoke's superb psychic abilities allowed him to easily outmaneuver the cat boss.

Charmeleon and Scyther are engaged in a fierce battle with Poliwrath, showcasing Poliwrath's superb fighting skills.

The two little guys were so enraged that they became completely absorbed in their own game and started employing an all-out offensive strategy.

Only the Iron Rhino was too big to be used in the training room.

At this point, all they could do was carry the weights and train their endurance step by step in the training room.

"Hey, the match is over!"

"So, did you win or lose?"

Seeing Qingyuan push open the door and walk in, Tieyan asked with a curious expression.

"Look at what you're saying! If I were to take action, wouldn't that be a piece of cake?"

Upon hearing Tie Yan's words, Qing Yuan patted his chest, looking completely matter-of-fact.

"Keep being arrogant. Let's see if you'll still be so arrogant when you actually lose!"

Tie Yan waved his hand dismissively.

After hearing this, Qingyuan shrugged and ignored Tieyan, focusing on watching Tianxie and the others train.

Seeing this, Tieyan stopped talking and started watching his Pokémon training, just like Qingyuan.

"Go! Attack its groin! Scyther is almost dead! Charmeleon, what are you waiting for?!"

The battlefield where Charmeleon and Scyther battle Poliwrath.

Qingyuan looked at the Scyther and Charizard, who seemed to be playing without any coordination, and shouted in exasperation.

"Hahaha, that's it! Beat it badly and make sure this kid never learns anything right!"

Seeing this, Tieyan laughed heartily and urged the fast-swimming frog to press its advantage.

Just now, Qingyuan commanded Charizard to use underhanded tactics, which gave Poliwrath a good beating.

Now that we've finally found an opportunity, we must teach it a lesson it won't forget.

No matter how Qingyuan commanded, the difference of more than twenty levels was like a chasm.

Scyther and Charmeleon were cleanly and efficiently taken down by Poliwrath.

"Ugh!"

"It's alright, you've done a great job!"

Seeing this, Qingyuan sighed and went to comfort Scyther and Charmeleon.

"Sha!"

"roar~"

Upon hearing this, Scyther and Charmeleon both lowered their heads in shame.

"It's okay, keep it up next time!"

Seeing this, Qingyuan patted Scyther and Charmeleon on the shoulder, comforting them both.

Qingyuan then left the training room and went to the deck.

The round of 16 is about to begin, and he is the second to appear, so he needs to come to the deck early to prepare.

It's no wonder they're in the top 16; they've made it this far without being eliminated.

Either they have real skill, or they have incredible luck.

But no matter what, the current competition is finally not a battle of weaklings.

"Meow meow is using crazy scratching!"

……

After seeing a slightly arrogant kid successfully defeat a Poliwag using Meowth.

Qingyuan straightened his clothes and came to the battlefield with a serious expression.

Qingyuan's opponent is a little boy with blue hair named Xiaoqiu, whose Pokémon is a Shellder.

Qingyuan has watched his matches; he must have put in a lot of effort on the giant cheetah.

The ice shards used by that giant tongue clam were not only powerful, but also incredibly fast.

"Now, both players, please release your Pokémon!"

"Go, Shellder, help me win this battle!"

"Whoa!"

A flash of red light appeared, and a giant tongue clam with a blue shell and a large tongue appeared on the battlefield.

The tongue clam is structurally similar to a clam, with its interior encased in a hard, pointed shell. Each shell has two sharp spines, and the interior is surprisingly soft. The eyes are located within a black, soft structure inside the shell, while its large tongue is always protruding.

This is because this Shellder can indeed pose a certain threat to Slowpoke.

So before the match even started, Qingyuan pulled out his Pokédex and started collecting information about Shellder.

"Go, Slowpoke!"

After collecting all the information, Qingyuan put away the Pokédex and immediately threw out Slowpoke's Poké Ball.

"Ya-dong!"

A flash of red light appeared, and the sleepy-looking Slowpoke successfully appeared on the battlefield.

But when it saw its opponent, the beast instantly became alert.

"Ya dong! (Hey, hey, hey, the way it's looking at me is weird, Qingyuan!)"

"Ya-dong! (It's trying to bite me!)"

Looking at the giant clam staring "fiercely" at it.

Slowpoke immediately pointed at Shellder and yelled at Qingyuan.

"Don't worry! Don't worry! Slowpoke will be fine!"

"We'll launch a swift attack this time, and it'll be over quickly!"

Seeing the worried look on Slowpoke's face, Qingyuan quickly comforted it.

Hearing Qingyuan's words, Slowpoke finally felt somewhat relieved.

"The tongue-o'-lantern clam uses ice pebbles!"

Xiao Qiu didn't care what Qing Yuan and Slowpoke were talking about, but he knew this was a good time to strike first.

So in order to win, he directly commanded the giant tongue shell to launch an attack.

But to his surprise, the usually obedient Shellie Clam completely ignored him this time.

Xiao Qiu looked at Shellder with a puzzled expression, only to see Shellder's eyes glow red as it charged directly at Slowpoke's tail.

"Giant tongue clam!"

Seeing this, Xiao Qiu quickly shouted, hoping to bring back the Great Tongue Shell's rationality.

He then remembered that Shellder was attracted to Slowpoke's tail and then combined with Slowpoke to become Slowbro.

He's about to lose his giant tongue clam.

"Slowpoke used Psychic!"

Qingyuan was startled when the Shellder suddenly rushed over and quickly commanded Slowpoke to block it.

He was supposed to evolve Slowpoke into King Hippowdon, how could it evolve into Slowpoke here?

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Slowpoke, who longed for King Hippowdon, unleashed its full power.

It pushed forward hard with both hands.

The next second, the giant tongue clam was sent flying and crashed heavily to the ground, its eyes turning into circles.

Giant clams are out!
