Faced with the sudden attack from the Zubat, the Lanturn at the very back instantly puffed up its cheeks and fired an electric net, stopping the few Zubat in their tracks.
The Zubat, unable to dodge in ti, flew into the electric net. In pain, they couldn't help but let out a few screeches. They then gave up on Lugia and Shuichi and turned to attack Lanturn instead.
Lanturn did not dodge and engaged them in battle.
From this, it was clear that although Shuichi's Lanturn was not very skilled in combat, it was still doing its best to protect Shuichi and Silver's safety!
While nervously watching the battle, Ash saw that both sides were evenly matched and whispered to Natsui, "Natsui, is it ti for Misty and the others to make their move?"
Natsui glanced at Gengar.
"How long has Brock been gone?"
Gengar answered without thinking, "Almost an hour!"
An hour...
Natsui estimated in his head. An hour wasn't enough ti to get back imdiately, but if they could just stall for a little longer, it should be enough!
With this in mind, he said to Gengar, "Give Misty and the others the signal!"
Receiving his instruction, Gengar imdiately ford a Shadow Ball and then threw it into the sky.
The Shadow Ball flew straight up, and when it reached a certain height, it suddenly exploded. Instantly, a large amount of dark energy blood in the air. Under the dayti blue sky, it was very eye-catching. Even from more than ten miles away, its dark fire could still be seen!
Cassidy and Butch on the submarine naturally also noticed this flare-like explosion.
They looked up at the still-fading dark fire and both sneered.
Calling for help?
But this island is so remote, and there's hardly anyone on the nearby Oki Island. Even if they call for help, who could possibly co to their rescue!?
Are they hoping for the police on Silver Rock Island?
But Silver Rock Island is still a long way from here. Even if those police wanted to rush over to help, by the ti they got here, we would have already succeeded and left!
But even so, the two of them knew that the longer they dragged this out, the more variables could arise.
It's better to resolve this sooner rather than later!
With that in mind, they no longer hesitated. While ordering their subordinates to intensify the attack, they both took out their own Poké Balls and leaped into the fray!
Butch sent out a Priape and a Hitmontop, while Cassidy's Pokémon were a Houndour and a Sableye!
Priape and Houndour were one thing; Natsui had seen these two Pokémon often during his travels. But as for Hitmontop and Sableye, this was the first ti he had seen them in person.
As a Fighting-type Pokémon, Hitmontop's body was brown, and its limbs and tail had bandage-like structures and blue protectors. It had a spike on the top of its head. Because it used both its hands and feet, often fighting upside down and doing sorsaults, it looked like a spinning top when inverted!
This was a very popular Pokémon among Fighting-type trainers, but as far as Natsui knew, Hitmontop were only male; there was no female counterpart. He didn't know how they reproduced.
As for Sableye, it was a Ghost- and Dark-type Pokémon. It had a deep purple, very short body, and a pair of eyes like blue gems that looked both evil and sowhat like an alien. Having such a Pokémon really fit the identity of a villain.
Compared to the grunts' Pokémon, Cassidy and Butch's four were naturally of a higher level. Although they still wouldn't be a match for Natsui and Ash's Pokémon in a one-on-one fight, their entry into the battle did indeed cause so trouble.
Of course, this wasn't the main point. After the two of them joined the battle, the Team Rocket mbers released dozens more Pokémon, and the intensity of their attacks beca even more ferocious!
Now, the scene was too chaotic. And being heavily outnumbered, Natsui's Pokémon gradually began to struggle!
Just then, several explosions were heard. Butch and Cassidy turned to look and saw over a dozen Pokémon suddenly rush out from the forests to the north, northeast, and northwest!
Without a word, these Pokémon imdiately joined the battle, attacking their own Pokémon!
And behind these Pokémon, Erika, Misty, and Ritchie also walked out of the forest!
At the critical mont, Erika and the others had co to support them!
Cassidy and Butch looked at each other.
So this is Natsui's backup?
I see, so his companions didn't leave; they were hiding here...
Did they anticipate our arrival and set up an ambush in advance, or do they have so other purpose?
Fortunately, the appearance of these three only added a few more variables to the battlefield, causing a brief mont of panic among the grunts, but that was all.
Even with the addition of these dozen or so Pokémon, it was still futile. They still held the absolute nurical advantage!
Do you really think you can deal with us like this!?
Hmph, how naive!
Compared to them, Natsui stood on the large rock, silently watching the battlefield.
In front of him, a Weezing that had launched an attack on him was directly taken down by Gardevoir's Psychic.
Before this, Erika, Misty, and Ritchie had been hiding in the distant forest. The purpose was to suddenly strike after receiving the signal, surrounding Team Rocket from three sides and coordinating with him to catch them off guard!
To avoid being detected by Team Rocket, Natsui had even specifically told them to stay far away, deep in the forest, and only return after seeing the signal.
Looking at it now, the plan had clearly been achieved!
Of course, doing this wasn't just for a simple ambush.
Showing weakness to make Team Rocket dare to act was his main purpose. And he was also very confident that such a small ambush would not be enough to eliminate these Team Rocket mbers.
The reason he did this was actually to bog these people down and prevent them from escaping!
His real reliance was on Brock, whom he had sent to get reinforcents an hour ago!
What do you do when you encounter bad guys?
Of course, you call the police!
Otherwise, even if they defeated these Team Rocket mbers, capturing them would beco a problem!
But because there was no signal here, he had to trouble Brock to go to a nearby town to notify the police. This round trip would take a lot of ti, so during this period, Natsui and his team had to hold Team Rocket off.
Fearing that Officer Jenny might not be able to handle these Team Rocket mbers, to be on the safe side, Natsui had also given Brock the phone numbers of Anabel and Looker, two International Police officers, and told him to seek help directly from them!
Team Rocket probably never imagined that Natsui had already learned from Maya that they were targeting Lugia. They thought they were the hunters, but they didn't know that they had long been targeted as prey by Natsui!
And with this ti difference, and Team Rocket still in the dark, being surrounded by the police was a natural and inevitable outco!
