"Dodge!" Ash commanded Rattata.
"Squeak squeak squeak!" Rattata ran desperately on all fours, evading the electric shock fired by Pikachu.
"Rattata, jump onto the rock wall."
Rattata circled behind Pikachu, leapt onto the rock wall. Pikachu's electric shock followed, striking the rock wall.
"Boom~" The rocks on the wall instantly shattered, falling towards Pikachu. A cloud of dust kicked up. Rattata took the opportunity to hide to the side. Looking at Pikachu buried under the rubble, Ash dumbly said, "Did—did it work?"
"Pika~chu!" A powerful electric shock burst from the rubble, blasting the rocks in all directions. The small golden figure reappeared.
"Still no good! Damn it, Rattata's attacks have to get close, but..." As Ash was thinking, Rattata unexpectedly charged at Pikachu on its own.
"Rattata, what are you doing?"
Seeing Rattata charging at it, Pikachu smirked, a contemptuous smile. It put its hand on its electric pouch, ready to release an electric shock to end this reckless little guy. But suddenly, it felt a headache, as if its other side was stopping itself.
Pikachu's hesitation allowed Rattata's ultimate move—Killer Fang to hit directly.
"Squeak squeak squeak!" Seeing Pikachu sent flying, Rattata joyfully cried out.
"Huh? What's happening... Rattata, be careful, dodge quickly!"
Pikachu got up not even a second after falling. It repeated its previous actions, planning to launch an electric shock. Rattata was facing away from Pikachu; if the electric shock was released, it wouldn't be able to dodge.
"Oh!" Sparks fell from the sky, accompanied by a strong wind, directly hitting Pikachu, who was about to attack.
"Coo coo coo!"
It turned out to be Charmander and Pidgey simultaneously launching Ember and Gust.
"It's you guys, Pidgey, Charmander. Charmander, are you okay?" Seeing them return brought Ash some joy and confidence.
"Oh!" Charmander was also very happy to see Ash, but now was clearly not the time.
"Pidgey, why are you also... Never mind, anyway, you're back, let's fight together!"
"Coo coo coo!"
"Oh!"
"Squeak squeak!"
Rattata and Charmander stood side by side, and Pidgey flew above their heads.
"Pika!"
"Let's go together!" At Ash's command, the three Pokémon moved simultaneously.
Today was Ash's first time traveling and his first Pokémon battle, but the passion of fighting alongside Pokémon didn't feel like the first time. Every command he gave felt like he was executing it himself.
"Charmander, keep your distance and continuously attack it with Ember; Rattata, watch for Pikachu's openings and give it a fatal blow; Pidgey, fly in the sky and support them with Gust."
At this moment, Ash was commanding three Pokémon in battle. Although he didn't even know the Pokémon's abilities, his heart was already tightly connected with the Pokémon.
"Pika!" Pikachu stood in place and attacked as before, becoming very passive. Facing the continuous attacks of two Pokémon and another one glaring at it, Pikachu put all four limbs on the ground for the first time.
"Pika!" In an instant, Pikachu's figure turned into a white light, instantly appearing in front of Charmander.
"Oh!" Charmander didn't even have time to show a scared expression, Ash's command to dodge hadn't been given yet, and Pikachu sent Charmander flying with one hit.
"So fast, what kind of ultimate move is that?" Ash opened the Pokédex, and only then did he know, this was Pikachu's Quick Attack.
At this time, Pikachu continued to attack Charmander, who was on the ground. Rattata and Pidgey rushed forward to stop it, but were sent flying by a powerful swipe of its glowing tail.
The current battle had far exceeded Ash's imagination. His commands were useless; he could only watch as the Pokémon were knocked down one by one.
Seeing Pikachu's body filled with electricity, Ash knew this was its final attack. If it hit the three of them, they might really die.
At this moment, Ash's brain was desperately thinking; he had to save them, he had to stop Pikachu, but there was no way. But his body moved on its own, as if driven by something; it moved without a suitable command from the brain.
"Stop!" Ash shouted desperately.
Pikachu actually hesitated for a moment. "Pika!"
Ash stood in front of Charmander, Pidgey, and Rattata, spread his arms, and shouted, "Who do you think I am! I'm Ash from Pallet Town, the one who's going to be the world's number one Pokémon Trainer. How could I lose to you? One day, I will capture you, Pikachu!"
"Chu!" A huge lightning bolt struck Ash directly.
"Ah~" The feeling of being baptized by electricity all over his body continuously stimulated Ash's nerves.
"Oh, oh~"
"Squeak squeak!"
"Coo coo, coo coo!"
"Thud," Ash fell to the ground. His body, charred by electricity, had no signs of life.
The three Pokémon gathered around Ash, continuously crying out. Their tears kept falling on Ash's body.
This scene seemed to touch Pikachu, but it immediately became cold and ruthless during the battle. "Pika!" Another electric current shot out, flying towards Charmander and the others.
At this moment, a rainbow light fell from the sky, covering Ash's body and the three Pokémon, and Pikachu's electric shock was blocked by the light.
