Chapter 388: Lunatone!

"Skarmory, huh? Return, Tyranitar."

May recalled Tyranitar and then sent out her team’s ace, Blaziken.

Fire beats Steel.

"Blaziken!"

Blaziken had a powerful presence upon entering the field.

Seeing Blaziken, Winona was shocked yet again.

She could understand that the first two were prepared for May by Mr. Norman long ago, but this quasi-Elite intermediate-level Blaziken before her was just too monstrous, right?

She could clearly tell that this was the Hoenn League’s starter Pokémon prepared for new Trainers.

In that instant, Winona felt that the blow Ash dealt her yesterday was light; this so-called ’rookie Trainer’ May was simply not human.

The successive blows left Winona with no fighting spirit, and this third battle became perfunctory.

After four or five rounds, Blaziken, with one-third of its health remaining, defeated Skarmory, and with that, May’s Viridian Gym Challenge came to an end.

After handing the Gym Badge to May, Winona said, "May, you are very strong. If you are not in a hurry to head to the next Gym for a challenge, I suggest you take a trip to Larousse City. A new Battle Tower has been built there, offering various battle challenges, and I hear it has already attracted many skilled Trainers."

"Larousse City? I heard that it is the most technologically advanced city in the Hoenn region," Brock said.

"The most technologically advanced city? There must be a lot of delicious food there!" May fantasized.

"Delicious food?" Winona said thoughtfully, "That seems correct; chefs from different regions have been attracted there for a few years now."

"Really?!"

May was immediately tempted by Winona’s words. She turned to look at Ash and said in a near-coquettish tone, "Hey, hey, Ash, let’s go to Larousse City for our next stop, okay?"

"Alright, alright, anyway, we have already collected six badges, so there is no rush."

Speaking of Larousse City, Ash remembered the battle between the ultimate Shinny ’Caterpie’ and the two Deoxys.

How could he, Ash, be absent from a place where Legendary Pokémon battle?

Having confirmed the destination for the next stop, Brock took out a map to plan the route.

After checking the map, Brock discovered that Larousse City happened to be on the same route as Mossdeep City, where the next Gym was located, and to reach these two places, they first needed to arrive at Lilycove City to cross the sea.

With the route clear, the group set off on their journey to Lilycove City.

A few days after setting off again, Ash’s group arrived at a place called Valley Town.

"Is this Valley Town? Why does it look a bit desolate?" Ash said.

"Yeah, Brock, are you sure we are on the right path?" May turned to look at Brock.

"We didn’t go the wrong way. Regardless, let’s go to the Pokémon Center first to take a look," Brock said pointedly.

Hearing Brock’s words, the sleepiness that had just begun to rise in Jirachi vanished instantly, its cute eyes fixed on Brock.

Noticing Jirachi’s gaze, Brock immediately changed his words, "I mean to stay at the Pokémon Center and have dinner along the way."

Not only were the streets of Valley Town desolate, but the Pokémon Center also lacked any popularity.

"Excuse me, is Nurse Joy here?" Brock called out lecherously.

After waiting for more than ten seconds with no response, May said, "Huh? No response. Is there no one here?"

Ash released his Aura to probe carefully and said slowly, "Nurse Joy is here, but her state seems a bit off."

"Off? Could it be that Nurse Joy has encountered danger?"

Thinking of this, Brock immediately realized that the opportunity for a hero to save the beauty had arrived, so he ran inside excitedly, "Nurse Joy, hold on, I am coming..."

Click!

Suddenly, the door behind the counter opened, and Nurse Joy, with a somewhat dull look in her eyes, walked out and said indifferently, "May I ask what you need?"

"Huh?"

Brock always felt that something was not quite right.

Seeing that Brock was not acting up, Jirachi retracted the little hand it had just reached out.

"Nurse Joy, do you have any vacant rooms..."

Before May could finish, Nurse Joy replied, "No, we are fully booked today!"

"Then our Pokémon should at least..."

"That won’t work either, because the machine is broken."

After saying this, Nurse Joy turned around and intended to leave.

Seeing this, Ash directly used his Aura to envelop Nurse Joy and then used Natural Power to restore her to consciousness.

Having returned to normal, Nurse Joy looked around and said somewhat puzzled, "Strange, why am I here?"

"Nurse Joy."

Seeing Nurse Joy return to normal, Brock’s passive ability triggered immediately, and he flashed over, intending to grab Nurse Joy’s hand.

Jirachi, who had been watching him, saw this and, without a second of hesitation, immediately used Teleport to send Brock to the roof of the Pokémon Center to cool off and calm down.

Startled by Brock, Nurse Joy also recognized Ash’s identity, "Huh? You are... Mr. Ash!"

"Uh... it’s me, that’s right. By the way, Nurse Joy, did you encounter any strange Pokémon just now?" Ash asked.

"A strange Pokémon?" Nurse Joy recalled carefully, "Hmm, that Pokémon is Lunatone. Its condition is a bit off, and it is also a bit shy of people."

"That must be it. I can sense that it is in the warehouse of the Pokémon Center," Ash said.

"Mr. Ash, that Lunatone is skilled in Hypnosis and Psybeam, so I would like to ask you to help save it."

"No problem."

Under Nurse Joy’s guidance, Ash and the others arrived outside the warehouse, and they also ran into old acquaintances, the Team Rocket Trio.

According to what these three idiots said, they had their eyes on a meteorite that fell near Valley Town, but the site where the meteorite fell was left with only a pile of fragments that had been bombed by shells.

From this, Ash could conclude that the Lunatone in the warehouse had fallen down with that meteorite, just like Solrock.

It’s just that Lunatone’s luck wasn’t very good; as soon as it landed, it encountered a strange organization chasing the meteorite and was then attacked for no reason.

That is why it became hostile toward humans, not even letting Nurse Joy get close.

After entering the warehouse, the group scanned the area and finally found Lunatone behind a shelf.
