Among Ghost-type Pokémon, the most evil is the Dusknoir, which will pack all approaching humans or Pokémon into wooden dolls.
Some of the longer-lived Dusknoir even turn more than one into mummies.
Next is the Aegislash, which likes to absorb human souls.
Following that is the Chandelure.
When Qing Wu saw so many Litwick, he knew that these Ghost-type Pokémon had regarded Qing Wu and his companions as prey.
The levels of these Litwick were not very high, averaging around Level 20.
Qing Wu silently had Mightyena, Kora-kora, and Crobat form a triangle formation, ready to deal with the Litwick's ambush.
"Everyone, pay attention. These Litwick definitely have a leader, but it's hidden in the shadows." Qing Wu swept his gaze around, not seeing any trace of Chandelure, he could only remind everyone to pay attention.
In places where Ghost-type Pokémon gather, Dark Stones are bound to form, so the appearance of Chandelure is not surprising.
When Qing Wu wasn't paying attention, a white Pokémon appeared behind Qing Wu, making a few rustling sounds, then disappeared into Qing Wu's backpack.
Qing Wu was completely unaware that a Pokémon had slipped into his backpack.
"Mightyena, use Bite. Kora-kora, use Rock Slide. Crobat, use Flamethrower."
Because Litwick possessed the "Ignite" characteristic, Qing Wu saw some Litwick being repelled by Crobat's Flamethrower, while others seemed to absorb the flames Crobat spat out.
"Come out, Wartortle, use Water Gun." Most of the Litwick were repelled by the combined attacks of Crobat, Kora-kora, and Mightyena.
The remaining few Litwick were then gloriously forced to retreat under Wartortle's Water Gun barrage.
"Strange, why haven't I seen the leader of the Litwick?" Litwick concealed itself and vanished from the spot. Qing Wu looked confused.
This Litwick retreated too quickly, the victory came so suddenly.
After repelling the Litwick, Qing Wu saw various other Ghost-type Pokémon.
There were Golems embedded in the rock walls, Noctowl appearing and disappearing mysteriously in the night, and Snow Women secretly following behind, unleashing extreme cold attacks.
There were also Grimer with sinister smiles, and Gengar absorbing nightmare energy.
But what Qing Wu saw more of were the Gastly family, wreaking havoc everywhere. But there was one thing Qing Wu deeply understood.
There were indeed many Pokémon eggs here. Every few steps, one could encounter a Pokémon egg.
However, Qing Wu gave up after using the system to detect their potential.
Most of these Pokémon eggs had red potential. Occasionally, there were some orange-potential Pokémon eggs, but Qing Wu didn't fancy them.
Qing Wu spent a whole day but still couldn't find the Gastly that was rumored to emit white flames.
"Looks like this Gastly hasn't been born yet." Qing Wu said regretfully as he walked out of the second layer of Ghost Mountain.
Time was running out. There was only one day left until they had to gather. Qing Wu had to seize this opportunity to become the unrivaled king of this trial.
When Qing Wu walked out of the cave, Qing Wu realized that the real trouble was still ahead.
The entire Ghost Mountain was shrouded in mist. Qing Wu saw countless black shadows lurking in the mist.
These were Ghost-type Pokémon manipulating the corpses of deceased Pokémon, holding a hunting frenzy.
"No wonder I felt just now that the Pokémon on the second layer of Ghost Mountain were all so weak. It turns out the stronger Pokémon all ran to the first layer." Qing Wu saw a black shadow smelling the scent of a living person, rapidly crawling over.
This was an Arbok, but Arbok's chest had a large hole, revealing its hollow white bones.
Arbok's two eyes were already gouged out, and there were many rotten scars on its body.
Qing Wu could visibly see countless plump white maggots wriggling on Arbok's body.
This was a unique hunting activity of Ghost-type Pokémon.
They hunted various Pokémon that strayed into Ghost Mountain by possessing the corpses of already dead Pokémon.
"Crobat, use Flamethrower," Qing Wu unceremoniously ordered Crobat.
Since this was the case, he would carve out a bloody path. After rebirth, Qing Wu had no more qualms.
"Mightyena, Kora-kora, all go!" Crobat's Flamethrower struck Arbok's corpse.
Arbok's corpse struggled and turned into ash. A Gastly, rolling its eyes, drilled out from Arbok's corpse and fell to the ground.
Crobat's Flamethrower was like poking a hornet's nest. Countless black shadows rushed towards Qing Wu.
There were rotten Fearow that were unrecognizable, and Dodrio with one head missing.
More often, there were Arbok and Weezing, common Pokémon of Team Rocket.
However, the Weezing, which had turned into a corpse, wouldn't explode as easily as it did when it was alive.
Mightyena flapped its wings, and countless giant wind blades surged out from its wings, easily splitting these corpses in two.
After all, after Pokémon died, the vitality of their cells stopped, and their defense was no longer as strong as when they were alive.
"Go!" Seeing more and more black shadows gathering, Qing Wu put away Kora-kora and Mightyena, grabbed Crobat's foot, and soared into the sky.
"Damn it, there are flying-type Pokémon here too!" A Fearow suddenly burst out of the fog and used Drill Peck on Qing Wu.
Because this Fearow's corpse was rotten, when it used Drill Peck, flesh and blood splattered. Its body was like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, almost making Qing Wu throw up from disgust.
Qing Wu slightly dodged to avoid the power of Fearow's Drill Peck.
However, Qing Wu was covered in filth, completely covered in the rotten sticky liquid from Fearow's corpse.
Fearow was left with only a sharp beak, and some broken flesh and feathers still hung on its white bones. From Fearow's body came a sinister cackling laugh, looking as if it were laughing at Qing Wu's current state.
"Mightyena, use Hurricane to carve out a bloody path!" Qing Wu roared in anger. Even Qing Wu, who was usually extremely calm and collected, was burning with rage at this moment.
Some sticky liquid also got on Mightyena's body. It was also burning with rage. In its eyes, this was a blatant act of provocation.
Mightyena opened its powerful huge wings, and countless giant wind pillars instantly formed.
Some flying-type Pokémon corpses that wanted to launch suicide attacks were swept into the wind pillars, their bodies quickly dissolving into ash in the storm.
Then, some Gastly rolled their eyes and fell into the storm.
"Huh? Why are the Ghost-type Pokémon here all so low quality?" Qing Wu looked at the Pokémon's potential being scanned by the system, and frowned.
He didn't know that this was a place specially designed by Team Rocket to cultivate Ghost-type Pokémon.
Some Ghost-type Pokémon with good potential were long since taken away by Team Rocket's higher-ups.
Even the fish that slipped through the net with decent potential were directly subdued by powerful trainees who passed by.
"It's a pity, I still haven't found that Gastly with special abilities," Qing Wu guessed that Gastly must have mutated.
Poison-type mutating into Fire-type was an extremely rare phenomenon in the entire Pokémon world.
After all, one could use some training methods to overcome the fear of type disadvantages.
For example, training Pupitar to surf, training Aggron to surf, training Flying-type Pokémon to endure attacks from Psychic-type Pokémon, such as Ash's Machoke.
But if one wanted to change a Pokémon's attribute, that might only happen once in tens of thousands of years.
Unless it was a Pokémon that lived in different regions, like the Meowth in the Kanto region, the Meowth in the Alola region, and normal Meowth.
Because they were forced to change attributes and appearance to adapt to the climate, this had gone through tens of thousands of years of breeding to make the recessive gene become dominant.
After the Flying-type Pokémon corpses stopped chasing, Qing Wu and Crobat finally rushed out. Seeing the scorching sun outside, Qing Wu now needed to find a place to clean himself.
At Team Rocket's training base.
Lan Ling looked at the pink-haired girl kneeling on one knee in front of her.
"You did very well, Riko. Although you sacrificed 12 Pokémon, as long as I can reach the top spot among the trainees, with the support of Master Athena, what's a few Pokémon anyway?"
"Qing Wu-kun, you never expected to enter Ghost Mountain, did you? It's a gathering place for extremely sinister and evil Ghost-type Pokémon." Lan Ling was very satisfied with how she had tricked Qing Wu this time.
"This is all my honor, Leader. I wish Leader a victorious start and immediate success in winning the top spot in this trial competition," Riko said proudly, head lowered.
