Under the night sky, Ho-Oh floated in the air, staring at Natsui for a long time, studying him with its gaze
Feeling its hostility, and thinking about how it had just shattered his Ultra Ball, Natsui's vigilance was greatly raised.
He had already guessed Ho-Oh's purpose for coming here.
It's here to save the three legendary beasts.
Natsui knew in his heart that to be able to accurately intervene at this moment to stop him from catching the three legendary beasts, with such perfect timing, Ho-Oh must have been watching from the sidelines for a long time.
He figured that after sensing the abnormality in Greenfield, it, like the three legendary beasts, had also come here early to investigate the situation. But this one was clearly better at hiding itself than the legendary beasts. Seeing them make a move, it had continued to lurk in the clouds, watching the situation unfold.
Now, seeing that Natsui had defeated the three legendary beasts and was about to catch them, it had to show itself to stop him.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
Hmph.
Natsui took a deep breath and looked back at it without showing any weakness.
Are you kidding me? I spent so much effort, used my ultimate trump card, just to defeat these three legendary Pokémon. How could I let Ho-Oh easily save them?
If it wants to be the oriole, it won't be that easy.
In fact, before seeing Ho-Oh, Natsui had originally had a good impression of it. After all, being known as Ash's personal photographer, compared to other legendary Pokémon, it was undoubtedly more powerful. And because it was designed based on the phoenix, it also added a lot of impression points. Most importantly, Ho-Oh rarely showed itself, which also added a bit of mystery to it.
But now, daring to stop him, had directly put Natsui and it on opposite sides.
There was no possibility of negotiation. Between him and it, today would surely be a clash of titans, and neither had a reason to back down.
But that being said, Natsui also felt a bit troubled by this situation.
If he were at full strength, he naturally wouldn't be afraid of Ho-Oh and could directly have the three legendary birds launch a siege.
If that were to happen, if Ho-Oh didn't use its full strength and was slightly careless, it was very likely that it would be pulled down from its pedestal and become his Pokémon.
But he had just used the Triple Bird Strike, and the three legendary birds were no longer able to fight. And besides them, the only other Pokémon that could fight Ho-Oh in the air were Gengar and Charizard.
As his regular mainstays, although these two were also very strong, compared to those legendary Pokémon, they were still a bit lacking.
The situation is really not good.
It had to be said, facing such a powerful Pokémon, Natsui couldn't help but feel that his lineup's strength was still insufficient…
Oh, right, I also have Dragonair. Although its strength can't even compare to Gengar and Charizard, let alone Ho-Oh, at least it can fly in the air for a while and provide a temporary distraction.
Looking at it this way, although the lineup on paper seemed a bit lacking, with the other Pokémon cooperating on the ground, it wasn't like he had no chance of fighting.
In any case, even if he was no match, he still had to give it a try. Natsui couldn't just watch as Ho-Oh saved the three legendary beasts.
And defeating Ho-Oh was not the goal. The main thing was to hold its attention while catching the three legendary beasts as quickly as possible.
With this thought, Natsui no longer hesitated and quickly took out five Poké Balls from his waist pouch, throwing them all out at once.
As the blue lights flashed one by one, Gardevoir, Jolteon, Crystal Steelix, Scyther, and Dragonair appeared on the field.
Feeling the tense atmosphere, Erika also realized what Ho-Oh wanted to do.
She glanced at Natsui, and seeing that he had no intention of giving up on the three legendary beasts, she also took out two Poké Balls, releasing Leafeon and Tangela to help out on the side.
At this moment, including Gengar and Charizard, Natsui's side had reached nine Pokémon.
Seeing that it was being stared at by so many pairs of eyes, Ho-Oh looked around but still showed no fear.
It let out a light cry, then flapped its wings, and a golden light suddenly shone down on the Entei closest to it. The next second, the originally near-fainted Entei, as if reborn from the ashes, was suddenly revitalized and stood up again.
Holy crap!
Natsui couldn't help but curse inwardly.
No wonder Ho-Oh looked so calm. So this was its plan.
Its resurrection, just like the Triple Bird Strike, was not within the scope of an ordinary Pokémon's abilities. It was Ho-Oh's own ability, making it impossible to defend against.
It seemed that the legend in Johto, of Ho-Oh resurrecting three dead Pokémon and turning them into the three legendary beasts, was not without basis.
At the very least, it could verify that Ho-Oh did indeed have the ability to resurrect people or Pokémon.
And now it seemed that besides being able to resurrect Pokémon, it could also restore their condition.
This ability was simply invincible.
Indeed, when facing these Pokémon that were more precious, rarer, and more powerful than the legendary birds and legendary beasts, one could not relax one's guard for a moment.
As Entei stood up again, the situation turned, the balance of power changed, and began to tilt in Ho-Oh's favor.
But after its previous defeat, Entei knew that this human was not to be trifled with and had no intention of fighting again, but was preparing to find a chance to escape.
Seeing its intention, Natsui made a decisive decision and immediately gave a command.
"Stop them!"
His and Erika's nine Pokémon, with Gengar, Charizard, and Dragonair flying in the air to entangle Ho-Oh and prevent it from using its resurrection ability again, while the other Pokémon on the ground scattered to block Entei's escape routes.
At the same time, Natsui took out two more Ultra Balls and threw them again at Raikou and Suicune.
Entei's condition had been restored, so there was no longer any possibility of catching it. Now, he could only set his sights on the other two legendary beasts.
The two Ultra Balls flew in an arc through the air, accurately hitting Raikou and Suicune.
But unfortunately, as the red light flashed, the two legendary beasts, after being sucked into the Ultra Balls for less than a second, were spat out again.
The capture had failed.
Natsui secretly thought it was a pity.
And at this very moment, the Ho-Oh in the air, using a heat wave of flames, first forced back Gengar and Dragonair, then, seizing the opportunity, nimbly circled around Charizard and flew to Raikou's head.
It flapped its wings, and the next second, the golden light shone down again. And Raikou, which had been lying on the ground, after being enveloped in the golden light, also miraculously recovered its condition and stood up again.
Natsui was shocked. He took out another Ultra Ball and, before Ho-Oh could arrive, threw it at the only one still on the ground, Suicune.
Clink!
The red light flashed.
This time, after Suicune was captured in the Ultra Ball, it first shook violently a few times, but this shaking became calmer and calmer. Clearly, the Pokémon inside had lost its strength to struggle.
Finally, with a soft 'click,' the Ultra Ball became completely still.
Got it!
Natsui was overjoyed and also greatly relieved.
Although the capture of Entei and Raikou had failed, in any case, he had finally managed to catch Suicune at the last moment.
