In the battle with Aoki, Shuichi didn't make any big mistakes, and his command in the battle was quite satisfactory.
But because of Aoki's Telepathy, Shuichi was caught off guard.
This is the role Telepathy can play in training at the same level.
If Shuichi knew that Aoki had the ability of Telepathy, it might be better and he would pay more attention.
But Aoki has always kept this ability quite secretive, and so far not many people know about it.
So after step-by-step design for Shuichi, Rhyperior was forced to explode, and although the Excadrill was powerful, it couldn't tell the winner from Drapion in an instant.
Drapion's tyrannical physical strength also successfully restricted Excadrill's display.
Shuichi took out a Pokeball from his waist and threw it directly on the ground. The Onix that took him away before appeared here.
The huge size of the Onix immediately blocked the sight of Slowking and the others.
Shuichi was ready to run away.
Today's defeat is almost a foregone conclusion. Aoki's hidden card caught him off guard. He would come to Aoki later—if he was mentally prepared, he would not be defeated so easily.
Aoki's Telepathy and Slowking's ability to summon rain would be his main defenses.
It's just that some people want to run, but some people don't want the other party to run.
The moment Rhyperior blew itself up, Gengar, who left from Aoki's shadow, made a big circle and came to the shadow of the rock behind Shuichi.
The appearance of Onix gave Gengar a better area to cover up.
"What? Do you want to run away?" Aoki said with a smile on his face.
"Hmph! I really underestimated you! The energy you use to command Pokémon is Telepathy, right? I didn't expect you to be a psychic. This fact has not been investigated. The person who gave me the information is simply a waste!" Shuichi blushed, very angry.
It was possible for him to escape, but like this, the Rhyperior that fell in front of Aoki must not be able to be taken back.
His heart was bleeding—this Rhyperior was his original Pokémon.
It took an unknown number of Pokémon to evolve it from a Rhyhorn to a Rhyperior. Many of his tactics revolved around this Rhyperior.
But after being targeted by Slowking, he also understood the powerlessness of Rhyperior when facing the more flexible Water-type Pokémon.
It was estimated that Rhyperior would not be used as the core of tactics in the future.
Of course, in fact, he still had the premise of a future.
"I'm curious, who gave you the information about me?" Aoki continued to ask. He already knew that Gengar had appeared behind Shuichi, and now Aoki needed to divert his attention and give Gengar a chance to approach.
Hearing Aoki's question, a smile appeared on Shuichi's face. "You don't know who is targeting you, right? Are you feeling a little inexplicably flustered? Do you feel that when the people around you look at you, there is something strange about their gaze?
It's okay, I won't tell you!"
It was really a little twisted in his heart.
But Aoki shook his head, the smile on his face unchanged, and said, "No, you will tell me."
"Open what—"
Suddenly, Shuichi was halfway through talking and finally realized something. Years of experience living in the wild gave him a hint.
But it was still a bit late—when Aoki said that sentence, Gengar was already prepared.
Unless he had a Pokémon like Aoki's that stayed in the shadows to protect him at any time, once he was approached by Gengar, his end was doomed.
But as an expert in Ground-type and Rock-type Pokémon, how could he have a Pokémon in the shadows?
So, relying on the connection between Onix's shadow and the shadow of the rock, Gengar came to Shuichi's shadow.
Slowly emerging from the shadows, an exaggerated smile appeared in front of Shuichi. Gengar held two Shadow Balls containing a lot of Ghost energy in its hands and looked at Shuichi with a playful smile, watching his horrified face.
Onix finally discovered Gengar's existence, but with its huge body, it couldn't do anything to drive Gengar away without hurting Shuichi.
Aoki walked slowly forward with the alert Slowking beside him.
"I told you, you'll tell me."
Aoki had never been afraid of anyone when it came to sneak attacks and field combat.
Under Gengar's signal, Shuichi untied the Poké Balls from his body one by one, and then, under Slowking's psychic control, the Poké Balls were sent to Aoki's hands.
In front of him, Aoki collected Onix, Excadrill, and the unknown Rhyperior into the Poké Balls.
The remaining Pokémon that had not been summoned were also in the Poké Balls, and they were all locked.
"Okay, now you can talk about who it is!" In the end, the killing intent in Aoki's eyes could no longer be restrained.
Anyone who was being targeted everywhere would not feel comfortable.
This was the case on Trial Island, and it was the same after entering Hoenn, and it was also the same when he went to Neverland and met the first person.
Aoki used to have no ability to resist, but now the power in his hands had gradually become stronger. If he pretended to be weak and did not fight back, the opponent would intensify!
Shuichi's complexion was a little pale. He could become the team captain of Team Rocket, and his hands would not be unstained by blood—he knew what situation he was facing now.
But he had nothing to do, and now his life was really in the other's hands.
In fact, he also understood that whether he said it or not, he might be dead.
But there was still some luck in his heart—what if the other party let him go if he said it? What if?
Even if it was as a slave! What if?
Better to live than die!
As long as he was alive, everything was possible.
Everything happened so suddenly. Just now, Shuichi was still arrogant—even if he was defeated by Aoki, he just felt that he didn't know enough about Aoki, that he had suffered a loss this time, and that he must get it back next time.
But he didn't want to fight. A mountain is still higher than a mountain. Aoki had completely brought out the essence of Team Rocket members to the extreme.
As long as he could win, it didn't matter what means he used—especially in this kind of wild where life and death would be separated if he wasn't careful.
Gengar let go of the Shadow Ball in its hand but stayed in Shuichi's shadow and did not leave.
Now his Pokémon had been taken, but the threat remained.
It wasn't just once or twice that a League member had defeated a member of Team Rocket, handed over all the Poké Balls on them, and then let down their guard, only to be directly killed by a Team Rocket member with a dagger.
Team Rocket members had plans in this regard.
Aoki stood one or three meters away from Shuichi, and beside him stood Slowking, a Psychic-type Pokémon. Even if Shuichi wanted to sneak attack, he couldn't do it.
Sitting down on the ground, he felt a little weak all over.
Finally, he opened his mouth slowly and said a name.
"Furukai!"
