"What are you guys doing?" Looking at the scene, Misty anxiously shouted forward.
"Hmph! Little girl, don't you understand? We're going to drain the water. This way, most of the Water-type Pokémon in the gym will lose most of their combat power." Hearing this, Jessie said with a cold laugh.
"What!!"
Hearing this, Misty also grew anxious. She instinctively thought of Ash and Brock, but only then realized that Ash and Brock weren't there at all.
Encountering such a situation, she instinctively wanted to rely on Ash and Brock, secretly cursing herself for being so useless, always thinking of letting Ash and Brock help. This was her own gym!
Thinking of this, she immediately ran forward. Seeing this scene, her three sisters' expressions changed slightly.
"Misty, what are you doing?"
"I'm a Cerulean City Gym Leader. I want to protect the gym!" Misty looked at the figures running towards Team Rocket.
"Little girl, I won't let you get in the way. Go, Arbok!"
"Koffing, go!" The two looked at Misty running over and immediately threw out Poké Balls. Koffing and Arbok immediately appeared, blocking Misty's path.
"Damn it! Starmie!!" Misty frowned slightly at the sight, but she had to quickly find a way to stop that machine, otherwise the pool water would soon be drained, and some smaller Pokémon might even be sucked in directly.
Misty shouted loudly into the pool. In the pool, Starmie, who was being pulled by the water current generated by the pump, heard Misty's voice.
Chaa!!!
Starmie immediately spun in the water. Unlike other Pokémon, Starmie's body structure allowed it to move in this situation. It spun its body rapidly, cutting through the surrounding water currents, then quickly flew to the surface.
Splash, splash, splash!!!
Soon, Starmie burst out of the water. With a splash, Starmie spun like a shuriken and shot out of the water, then circled in the air before flying towards the shore, landing in front of Misty.
"Starmie, use Water Gun! - " Seeing Starmie appear, Misty felt as if she had found her savior. She immediately issued a command. Starmie leaped up at her command, and a blue column of water shot out from the sharp point on its head.
"It's not that simple! Arbok, dodge and use Poison Sting!"
Jessie immediately gave the order. Arbok and Koffing dodged simultaneously. After dodging, Arbok opened its mouth and spat out countless purple needles, like raindrops, towards Starmie.
"Starmie, quickly dodge!" Misty saw that it missed and the opponent counterattacked. She quickly shouted loudly at Starmie.
Starmie's body quickly fell from the air, dodging the Poison Sting attack.
"Koffing, use Smog!"
Team Rocket didn't follow any rules. James immediately ordered Koffing. Koffing rose into the air, then opened its large mouth, continuously spewing out black smoke.
The black smoke instantly dispersed, spreading everywhere. Misty couldn't help but cover her mouth and nose in helplessness, but at the same time, her vision was affected, and she lost sight of Koffing and Arbok.
"Arbok, use Tackle!"
At this moment, Jessie continued to attack. In the black mist, Arbok's body sprang out like a spring, directly tackling Starmie.
Starmie was instantly knocked back by the strong impact, sliding back several meters before stopping. However, the thick smoke still lingered, and it lost sight of Arbok again.
"Damn it! Where are they?!"
"Hehe! Little girl, without that brat here, there's no way you can defeat us." From the machine's location, Jessie and James looked at the scene with triumphant smiles.
"Is it true that I can't do anything without Ash? Ash... That's right, Ash! What would Ash do?"
Misty listened to Jessie and James's words and began to doubt herself. However, she didn't fall into despair. Thinking of Ash, she instinctively put herself in Ash's position, wondering what Ash would do in this situation.
She subconsciously recalled the time in Viridian Forest, when Team Rocket appeared, how Ash dealt with it.
"Wind?! I know! Starmie, use Rapid Spin!"
A flash of light suddenly appeared in Misty's mind. She immediately ordered Starmie. James and Jessie were still unaware of the situation, and hearing Misty's voice, they still spoke triumphantly.
"It's useless, little girl. In this situation, you won't hit Arbok and Koffing."
"Who said I was going to attack Koffing and Arbok?" Misty also responded.
Starmie obeyed Misty's command, leaped forward, and then its body began to spin rapidly. Its high-speed rotation grew faster and faster, forming a strong airflow.
As the airflow generated by the rotation, the surrounding smoke was instantly carried by this airflow. Under the strong airflow's rotation, the smoke was quickly swept away.
"Nani??"
Seeing this, Jessie and James's faces showed surprise. As the smoke cleared, Arbok and Koffing's figures also appeared.
"Go, Starmie!" Misty seized the opportunity and signaled Starmie to attack directly.
Starmie maintained its high-speed rotation, its entire body flying forward like a shuriken, directly colliding with Arbok. The spinning force sent Arbok flying. Arbok was thrown backward, hitting Koffing.
"This...!" Seeing this, Daisy and Lily couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Violet remained silent, but her heart secretly thought as she looked at Misty's back. "Misty, you've really grown! Perhaps Ash was right. You're indeed more suited to be a trainer than us."
Outside the gym.
"Hmm??"
At this moment, as Ash and Brock returned to Cerulean City, they saw a cloud of black smoke rising from behind Cerulean City. The power of the earlier rotation had dispersed the smog, and it was now drifting out from the opening caused by Team Rocket's impact.
"What... what happened?" Brock looked in the direction Ash was staring, and also noticed the problem, frowning.
"Probably, hurry!"
Ash also responded, and the two quickly sped up, entering the gym. Upon entering the gym, they could hear the commotion, which made them even more certain that something had happened.
