"Damn it, during the battle, there were three against one. You are so despicable!" Seeing the scene in front of him, James gritted his teeth in frustration.
"You have no right to criticize others!" Upon hearing this, Misty, who was standing behind Ash, immediately responded with indignation.
"We're not competing in a tournament, we're fighting criminals!" Green smiled after hearing this. It was obvious that she didn't care at all about the so-called fairness when facing enemies like Team Rocket.
"You're absolutely right! We, the Trainers of Pallet Town, will never let go of someone who steals other people's Pokémon!" Gary tossed his hair with confidence.
"Ahh!!! Gary is so handsome!!" The cheerleaders behind him couldn't help but scream in adoration.
Ash was speechless when he saw this display.
"Stop talking nonsense and let's do this!" Ash looked at his companions and shouted, not wanting to waste any more time.
"Wartortle, use Water Pulse!"
"Ivysaur, Energy Ball!" After hearing Ash's command, the two Pokémon launched their attacks without hesitation.
Wartortle emerged from its shell, then opened its mouth as a stream of water energy gathered and formed a powerful water sphere.
Meanwhile, Ivysaur also gathered energy. A grass-type energy gradually condensed in its mouth, turning into an emerald Energy Ball.
BOOM!!!
The two Pokémon attacked simultaneously, and the combined power of water and grass hit Weezing and Arbok at the same time. The energy exploded, and the amazing force knocked Arbok and Weezing away, sending them flying directly toward Jessie and James who were standing above the reservoir project.
"Ahhhh!!" The two Team Rocket members yelled in panic, but before they could move away, they were directly hit by their own flying Pokémon.
"Charmeleon, Fire Pledge!!"
Ash seized the opportunity and signaled Charmeleon to deliver the final blow. Hearing the command, Charmeleon's eyes flashed with determination, and his body glowed red. The flames on his tail suddenly intensified. He clenched his claws and punched the ground with all his might.
Bang!! Boom boom boom!!!
An astonishing force struck the earth, and in an instant, pillars of fire erupted in front of Charmeleon, blasting directly in the direction of Team Rocket.
BOOM!!!
The pillar of fire burst out from the ground and rushed directly from beneath the reservoir project. The soaring flames swept Team Rocket and the entire structure into the sky. In an instant, the entire project was swallowed up by fire and explosion, with Team Rocket caught in the blast.
Not only Team Rocket, but the entire project collapsed in the explosion. The uncle from before was so heartbroken that he froze in place.
The explosion lasted for quite some time, and no trace of Team Rocket could be found. This time, they weren't simply blasted off. The situation looked more serious than usual.
But Ash knew that they had remarkable survival skills, so there was no need to worry. Maybe they were right when they claimed to always be reborn, though this time it wasn't just being blasted off into the sky.
Unfortunately for them, after they recovered, they would have to face the most brutal combination of trainers from Pallet Town again.
After defeating Team Rocket, Ash looked around and noticed that many Trainers had disappeared, leaving only the old man who remained standing as if he had lost his soul.
At this moment, behind Ash and the others, figures could be seen emerging from the ground, calling out enthusiastically. Everyone turned around and saw that it was Diglett and Dugtrio, who seemed to be thanking Ash and his friends.
Everyone looked at each other when they saw this scene and smiled sincerely. No matter what, there was no way to continue with this project. Even if it hadn't been destroyed today, it would have been ruined by Diglett sooner or later.
Even if they somehow managed to rebuild it, as long as Diglett remained in the area, there would still be damage. The uncle looked at the situation and seemed to have finally understood. He sighed slightly and said:
"Alas! It seems that this place is not suitable for reservoir projects."
By evening, the situation had been resolved.
"Okay, now that the matter is settled, let's move forward!" After resolving the Diglett situation, it was almost dark before they knew it. At dusk, Gary got into his sports car with his cheerleaders and said goodbye to everyone.
After speaking, without waiting for anyone to respond, he waved his hand and left gracefully. Everyone watched his car drive further and further away. They had met briefly, but their respective journeys would continue, and Green also spoke up.
"I'm leaving too, Ash, Brock, and Misty! See you again next time! Take care!" Green didn't hesitate at all, turning to bid farewell to her friends.
"Yeah! The same goes for you, see you later!" Ash responded cheerfully. Green took one last look at the three trainers, then smiled and turned around, walking away alone under the sunset.
Her shadow stretched longer and longer until she gradually disappeared from the sight of the three friends.
"It's obvious that she's a rookie trainer like us, but she's traveling alone. That's amazing!" Misty couldn't help but comment as she watched Green leave.
Although Misty had been alone at the beginning of her journey, after getting to know Ash and Brock, she had encountered many challenges. Now that she thought about it carefully, she would definitely not have been able to solve them if she had been on her own.
But Green, traveling alone, had made it all the way here, and her progress in collecting Gym Badges was not inferior to that of Ash and Gary. She was indeed an admirable trainer.
"Indeed!" Brock nodded unconsciously, thinking that Suzie was right.
"Stop sighing, we're about to set off too. We can't lose to them!" Ash interrupted the two's reflections and gestured toward the path ahead.
"That's right!"
"Climb the mountain in front and you'll arrive at Fuchsia City! Come on!!" Brock cheered up after hearing this, and pointed to the mountain ahead. This mountain was the last obstacle before reaching Fuchsia City.
"Then let's go! Soul Badge, here I come!"
Ash looked at the mountains in front of him with determination. He had spent a lot of effort preparing for the Fuchsia Gym.
Ash ran forward excitedly, and Pikachu quickly followed at his heels.
"Hey! Ash, wait a minute!!" Upon seeing this, Brock and Misty quickly hurried after them. The dim sunlight reflected the chasing figures of the three friends as they continued their Pokémon journey together.
