Pokémon: The Journey Begins with a Cowherd

Chapter 470 Taming the Moltres!

"Greek!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Scorpion King roared and slammed its right pincer, imbued with water-type energy, into Moltres's head.

"Wow!"

And the Moltres truly lives up to its name as a divine bird.

That guy's health is really thick; he's already withstood three of Scorpion King's Crab Claw Hammers.

It can even use its flamethrower directly on the Scorpion King.

The powerful jet of flame was shot directly at Gliscor's head by Moltres.

Fortunately, Scorpion King never gave up using sharp stones for defense.

Seeing the jet of flame hurtling toward his head, Scorpion King immediately manipulated the sharp stone to raise its defensive position.

In an instant, it sliced ​​the jet of flame aimed at its head into four pieces.

"The Scorpion King used sharp stones to attack like that!"

Seeing Scorpion King controlling the sharp stone to defend against the firebird, Qingyuan waved his hand and shouted loudly at Scorpion King.

"Greek!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Scorpion King roared and swung his left pincer forward.

The sharp stones that were originally used to block the flames from Moltres's breath suddenly turned into incredibly sharp attacks, shooting rapidly towards Moltres along with its flames.

"Bang bang bang!"

With a series of crashing sounds, Moltres was forced to stop spewing flames by being hit by Gliscor's sharp stone attack.

"Use Rock Slide now!"

Seeing the Moltres somewhat bewildered by the Gliscor King's sharp stone attack, Qingyuan hurriedly shouted commands to the Gliscor King.

"Greek!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Scorpion King roared and conjured a boulder even larger than Snorlax in front of him.

He then launched an attack directly at the Moltres.

"Oh!"

The enormous rock hurtled toward the firebird like a cannonball.

The Moltres, unable to dodge in time, was blasted away by the boulder.

In a forest of flames, a road shaped like a firebird was smashed through.

"Take me there!"

Because of the wildfire, the area was filled with thick smoke, and Qingyuan, who couldn't see Moltres's current situation, patted Charizard's neck and gave instructions.

"Roar!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Charizard roared, then flapped its wings and quickly flew towards the direction where Moltres had landed.

When Qingyuan arrived in front of the Moltres, he saw that the Moltres was pinned under a boulder, its eyes had turned into circles, and it had lost its ability to fight.

"Go away!"

Seeing the Moltres that had lost its ability to fight, Qingyuan did not hesitate at all and threw a Healing Ball at it.

Heal Balls can restore some of the HP of a captured Pokémon and remove abnormal statuses from it.

Moltres was somewhat disoriented before it was defeated by Qingyuan.

Moreover, with the wildfire now raging, Qingyuan needs the Firebird to help him extinguish it, so he has no choice but to reluctantly throw out his treasured Healing Ball.

Fortunately, he had a habit of collecting Poké Balls, otherwise Qingyuan would be at a loss looking at Moltres and Wildfire, which were unable to battle.

"Ooh... Ooh... Thump!"

It could be because it was out of its mind, or it could be because the Scorpion King beat it too badly.

After being captured by the Heal Ball, Moltres was easily captured by Qingyuan without much resistance.

"Greek!"

Seeing this, Gliscor directly manipulated the ground beneath Moltres's Poké Ball.

A tray made of clay then materialized, and Moltres's Poké Ball was placed in front of Qingyuan.

"You've put in a lot of effort, Scorpio King! Your control over ground-based energy has reached a whole new level!"

Looking at the Poké Ball of Moltres in front of him, Qingyuan praised Gliscor with a look of satisfaction.

"Greek!"

Upon hearing this, Scorpion King immediately raised its head proudly towards the fire-breathing dragon beneath Qingyuan.

Look, I got praised again, you piece of trash!

"Hmph! (Sycophant!)"

Looking at the smug-looking Gliscor in front of him, Charizard turned its head away unhappily, thinking to itself.

Because Gliscor took it and beat it up after it broke through to the Elite Four level, Charizard no longer dares to curse at Gliscor.

It has now returned to the time when it avoided direct confrontation and bided its time.

Once it breaks through to the King level, it will have a real battle of wits with the Scorpion King.

Ignoring the little commotion between Gliscor and Charizard, Qingyuan looked at Moltres's Poké Ball and reached out to take it.

Scorpion King and Charizard have been fighting for quite some time now.

Now that they're both grown up, they know what they're doing and won't do anything harmful to their family.

"Holy crap!"

With Qingyuan's exclamation, Gliscor, who was about to run to the side where Charizard had turned its head to continue picking a fight with Charizard, immediately rushed in front of Qingyuan.

"Gore! (What's wrong?)"

Looking at Qingyuan, who was in pain, Scorpion King asked him with concern.

"I'm fine, it's just that this thing is fucking hot!"

Upon hearing Scorpion King's words, Qingyuan waved to Scorpion King and said.

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Scorpion King looked closely and saw that Qingyuan's hand, which had just held the Moltres Poké Ball, was now completely red.

It probably won't be long before a big blister forms.

"Hey, use the water gun on it to cool it down!"

Looking at the Poké Ball of Moltres in front of him, Qingyuan grabbed the Shellder sitting behind him and brought it to his front, pointing at the Poké Ball of Moltres and saying.

"Whoa!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Shellder didn't hesitate at all and fired a Water Gun directly at Moltres's Poké Ball.

"hiss~"

A large amount of water vapor rose from Moltres's Poké Ball.

At this moment, Scorpion King could also directly feel the high temperature on Moltres's Poké Ball.

"Good heavens, with such a high temperature, I knew it felt like I was holding a piece of red-hot charcoal!"

Looking at the rising steam in front of him, Qingyuan said with a surprised expression.

"Clang! (This is much hotter than burning charcoal!)"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Scorpion King shook his head and addressed Qingyuan.

"That's true, Moltres is a legendary Pokémon after all!"

"But the quality of this Poké Ball is really good; it didn't melt even at such a high temperature!"

Hearing Scorpion King's words, Qingyuan applied burn ointment to his burns.

He nodded and agreed with Scorpio King.

"Alright, stop now, Big Tongue Clam!"

After having Shellder spray Moltres's Poké Ball with Water Gun for a while, Qingyuan noticed that the surface temperature of the Poké Ball was no longer high enough to evaporate water vapor.

Qingyuan then waved to the giant tongue clam, stopping it.
