POKEMON : STARTING WITH FLASH METAGROSS

"Did you find anything?"

"Beta!"

The Metang pointed to the right, indicating to Rax to take a look.

Passing through the lush bushes, Rax followed the direction pointed by Metang and soon discovered the elf hunter's campsite.

Two oversized tents, an off-road pickup truck, and cooked meat on an unextinguished fire.

Obviously, these pokemon hunters lead a prosperous life.

The trunk of the pickup truck was covered with a tarpaulin, and Rax motioned to Metang to open it with its telekinesis.

Sure enough, the large and small cages were full of wild Pokémon captured by the hunters, and they were all tied tightly with spider silk.

Meowth, Beedrill, Cherrim, Scorupi, Comfey, Leafeon...

Um?

Wait!

Leafeon!!

Rax's pupils dilated and he couldn't help but take two steps forward to look at the dying Pokémon in the cage.

The whole body was creamy yellow, and the ears and tail were curved in the shape of banana leaves. The green leaves between the eyebrows had withered, and it looked very depressed.

"Metang, put them all on the ground, don't open the cages yet!"

"Beta!"

Soon, the ground was covered with cages, and many Pokémon woke up along the way, struggling wildly.

"Skiploom, aromatherapy!"

"Fafa~"

The fresh floral fragrance filled the whole place, bringing with it the power to calm the heart.

Feeling the pain in their bodies slowly weakening, the Pokémon who had been struggling relaxed one after another and looked at Rax and Skiploom with caution and expectation.

"Go on, Grassy terrain!"

"Fafa!"

Skiploom never hesitated to save others and used the Grassy terrain to its fullest extent, covering the entire area of Pokémon.

At the same time, Rax came forward with Metang.

"I will help you open the cage and cut the insect net. Please don't struggle during this period."

Regardless of whether the Pokémon understood it or not, Rax chose the timid and gentle Cherrim first.

"Metal Claw!"

"Beta!"

Metang waved its arm lightly, and the lock of the iron cage was easily cut open.

Rax opened the cages and looked at Cherrim inside.

Cherrim had no hands, but she was still trapped in a round ball by insect silk, with two small eyes exposed and looking extremely pitiful.

"Don't be afraid, you'll be safe soon."

Rax stretched out his hand and took out the Cherrim, then took out the scissors and cut off the insect threads.

Throughout the whole process, Cherrim was so nervous that she trembled and closed her eyes, not daring to look at Rax.

Seeing this, Rax suddenly sighed in his heart.

For the sake of efficiency, professional pokemon hunters will not use head-on combat to conquer Pokémon.

Bombs, power grids, poisoning... As long as the Pokémon can't be killed, just do whatever you want.

That's why news of Pokémon being disobedient, defecting, and even turning against trainers are commonplace.

The reason is that hidden dangers have been laid from the beginning.

Someone like Rax, who makes some extra money by taming Pokémon while traveling, is already very conscientious.

Although selling such Pokémon is obviously not allowed by the alliance, they don't care much about it.

Back to business.

It wasn't until Rax cleaned up all the worms on Cherrim's body and returned it to the Green Grass Field that the eyes staring at Rax truly became alive!

There's help!

Afterwards, Rax took Metang and began to liberate the Pokémon indiscriminately.

One by one, Pokémon were rescued from iron cages of different sizes by Rax.

Soon, Rax walked up to Leafeon.

Leafeon looked at Rax silently, full of expectation.

"Relax, I won't hurt you."

"Ye Yi~"

There was a muffled cry, and Leafeon said that he would be very good.

At this time, the aromatherapy and the Grassy terrain continued to work, and most of the Pokémon had recovered a lot and began to become restless.

Rax said to the Pokémon while taking out Leafeon wrapped in a rice dumpling.

"The Pokémon that have come out can help each other!"

After speaking, the Pokémon who were liberated in advance did not run away first, but listened to Rax's words and joined the rescue team.

Even if they were of different species, they could still be called partners by helping each other at this moment.

Soon, meowth was also rescued. He looked at Rax with a pair of big maroon eyes, and then gently rubbed Rax's leg.

"I see that you are also a grass-type Pokémon. If you are able, go and help."

"Ye Yi~"

Leafeon nodded obediently and ran to the cage next to him.

I saw it flicking slightly, the green leaf tail flashed with green light, and then cut to the lock accurately.

Skill, Leaf Blade!

The strength of this leaf was not bad, and a Leaf Blade can easily cut through the iron lock.

But thinking about the three poisoned Pokémon of the hunter, it was normal for Leafeon to lose.

With the help of the Pokémon, the overall speed was faster.

Soon, all the little 100 Pokémon were released, but because they were still injured, they were all crowded in the Grassy terrain.

"I don't know where you were all caught from, but this way is the Sea of Flowers, and the other side is the depths of EMI Forest. If you want to go home, you have to rely on yourselves. Let's go!"

After Rax finished speaking, many Pokémon left immediately, but they all bowed their heads to Rax before leaving.

Some very young Pokémon fell into confusion, such as Cherrim, Comfey, Curly Ear, etc.

Rax also sighed when he saw this. If they were subdued and handed over to the Team Rocket again, it might be a heavier harm to them.

But it's even more impossible to conquer them all by himself. He doesn't have a doctor behind him.

But the doctor's words...

Just when Rax was hesitating whether to contact Dr. Yamanashi, he saw Leafeon stand up and take the initiative to call those young Pokémon together.

"Ye Yi~"

Leafeon called softly, and the fresh air around his body refreshed the young Pokémon.

Leafeon nodded to Rax again, and then he was about to leave with many young Pokémon.

"Wait, do you want to take care of them in the future?"

Leafeon nodded, and didn't seem to think it was a big deal.

Rax felt complicated. Compared with his own intention to rescue these Pokémon, the Leafeon in front of him was truly kind.

"If you trust me, maybe I can help them find a more suitable place to live."

"Ye Yi?"

Leafeon tilted his head, and then sat down obediently, which made Rax blush.

Seeing this, Rax did not hesitate to turn on the communicator and dial Dr. Yamanashi's number.

In order to ensure that he could contact people in times of crisis, Rax had not turned on the phone when he was in the wild.

After a few beeps, the phone was quickly connected.

"Dr. Yamanashi, are you busy?"

"Rax, what's up?"

A familiar serious voice sounded on the other end of the phone, and Rax felt relieved.

"Well, it's like this, something like this happened to me..."

In addition to covering up the hunter's escape and temporarily concealing the existence of Leafeon, Rax told Dr. Yamanashi everything that had just happened.

"... Well, that's what happened. Do you have any good ideas, Doctor?"
