Pokémon: Encounter

Chapter 136: Big Bird vs. Spiny Shell

Scorpion is a Pokémon with both Water and Ice attributes.

It is protected by a double dark blue shell with a protruding horn on the main body and some protruding horns on the outermost shell.

Its mouth was revealed, but no one knew what was inside. It had a very hard shell that could not be destroyed even by incendiary bombs. The thorns used to pierce the opponent were much harder than the shell that could not be destroyed even by napalm bombs.

It lives in turbulent seas and swims by ejecting the swallowed seawater backwards in one go.

Once it closes its shell, no one can open it no matter how powerful they are. It will only open when attacking.

The scars on its shell will gradually bulge and grow into large spikes. When attacked, not only is it protected by a shell that is harder than diamond, but the thorns on the shell will also fly out one after another, making it difficult to deal with.

It is said that a large number of spears made from spikes plucked from shells have been unearthed from ancient tombs of hunting tribes.

It likes to eat Slowpoke's tail very much, and sometimes even crawls onto land to look for Slowpoke. If the Shellder, the predecessor of the Spiny Shell, bites Slowpoke's tail, Slowpoke will evolve into Slowpoke; if it bites Slowpoke's head, Slowpoke will evolve into the highly intelligent Slowpoke.

It is said that the Shellder attached to the tail survives by eating the leftovers of Slowpoke. The two have a symbiotic relationship, which is very interesting.

A bit off topic~

Looking at the aggressive spiny shell in front of him, Nan Fang sighed again.

"Stop sighing, Captain! If you keep sighing, you'll become an old man~" Hu Xiaona and Nightingale joked. Nan Fang glanced at the two heartless girls.

"You attack first." Kona said generously.

Seeing that the battle was about to begin, Hu Xiaona quickly widened her eyes. Because she also had a thorny shell, although she was now in a supporting position, it did not affect her study. So she became extra serious.

The physical defense of the thorny shell is really abnormally high. It seems that if you want to gain an advantage, you have to use special attacks.

Nan Fang pondered secretly in his heart.

"Dabi Bird! Lightning!"

Nan Fang tried it first, wanting to see how hard the shell of this spiny clam was.

"Spiny Shell! Retract into the shell!"

After receiving Kona's instructions, the spiny clam immediately merged the two shells to protect its body from being exposed outside.

Pidgeot then attacked.

The bird crashed straight into the shell of the thorny shell. There was only a dull sound of impact, and the bird retreated in pain. The thorny shell standing on the ground was as stable as a mountain. There was even only a slight scratch left at the place where the bird had just hit.

"Awesome!" Nan Fang was secretly surprised.

He had also fought against Hu Xiaona's thorny shell during special training. Not to mention penetrating, at least he could push Hu Xiaona's thorny shell up into the sky. However, Kona's thorny shell did not move at all, as if nothing had happened, but it was the Pidgeot that was bounced away.

It seems that the Pokémon training of the top kings is simply not on the same level as that of ordinary people.

The South is starting to get serious.

"That's it, use Yan Fan!"

Nan Fang planned to use Yan Fan's rotation to lift up the spiny clam and see how it could respond in the air.

"Shell pincer attack!"

The shell of the thorny shell suddenly revealed a crack, and when the beak of the bird just touched the shell, it suddenly clamped the bird. The bird also stopped moving and could only flap its wings to break free from the control of the thorny shell.

"Just use the water cannon!"

“Hana!”

The water cannon in the shell gradually began to condense, and then the thorny shell opened its shell instantly. A huge column of water sprayed out. The newly freed bird was the first to be hit. It was directly blown into the air by the water cannon.

"Oh no!" Nan Fang thought to himself that something was wrong.

"Freezing beam!"

The Thorny Clam did not give Dabitho any buffering time, and a stream of ice-blue ice energy rushed straight towards Dabitho, which was still in a mess in the air.

If this attack hits again, the result can be imagined.

"Dabi Bird! The swallows return!"

Nanfang can only gamble. Swallow Return is a very flexible flying move. Nanfang can only gamble on the reaction speed of the big bird. It can use the Swallow Return move when the body is not stable.

"Compare!!!"

Pidgeot's eyes were focused, and while it was still being knocked into the air, it forcibly changed its flight trajectory and used the Swallow Return Technique, narrowly avoiding the pursuit of the freezing beam.

"Oh? Very impressive," Kona commented.

"How about this? Use the icicle attack!"

I saw huge icicles beginning to condense in the air, constantly attacking the Big Bird.

"I can only give it a try." Nan Fang made a decision in his heart.

"Big Bird Lightning Flash!"

Pidgeot gathered its strength and sped up instantly, dodging the icicles one after another while flying quickly towards the thorny shell.

"Hmm? Haven't you learned your lesson yet?" Kona smiled faintly.
