"Gastly, use Lick!"
Gastly extended its long tongue and brutally licked Pidgey. This slightly disgusting method of attack completely broke Pidgey, both physically and psychologically.
"Well done, Gastly. Now return and rest."
After feeding Gastly some pokéblock, Gu Yuan decided to stop looking for wild Pokémon to battle and focus on his journey. Gastly, feeling tired, yawned and obediently retreated into Gu Yuan's shadow.
"Alakazam, I'm counting on you."
Gu Yuan stretched and smiled at Alakazam. Alakazam nodded helplessly. It had noticed that ever since it broke through to Senior Rank, Gu Yuan had become increasingly lazy. Now it was getting excessive, not even wanting to walk such a short distance. But what could Alakazam do? I guess I'll just pamper my trainer.
With the help of Teleport, Alakazam quickly brought Gu Yuan to the town of Fengmu Town.
As an unremarkable small settlement, Fengmu Town was not large, but it did have a Pokémon Center and a Police Station. After all, several flocks of Fearow lived nearby, and some security force was naturally needed to ensure the safety of the residents. In addition, many trainers looking to catch a Fearow for transportation would also come here, requiring the Pokémon Center to provide logistical support.
Stepping into the small town, a peaceful atmosphere permeated the air, and one could see Pokémon and residents living in harmony. Compared to the so-called big cities, this kind of small village felt more comfortable. It was a pity that this tranquil atmosphere was not suitable for him; after resupplying, he would have to continue his journey.
Gu Yuan strolled leisurely through the town. After renting a single room at the Pokémon Center, he did not rush to shop. Instead, he took a good shower to wash away his exhaustion. After resting for a day and a bit, Gu Yuan finally began purchasing supplies, preparing to reach Celadon City as soon as possible.
"Alright, this should be enough."
Looking at his newly stocked backpack, Gu Yuan felt a sense of satisfaction.
Just as Gu Yuan was about to leave, an alarm suddenly sounded. The next second, Gu Yuan saw the residents of Fengmu Town grow tense and rush toward their homes. In contrast, those with some strength immediately released their Pokémon and ran out of the town.
"Attention residents of Fengmu Town! A flock of Fearow is about to attack. Please protect yourselves immediately!"
"Furthermore, we sincerely invite all trainers to go outside the town to help resist the attack of the Fearow flock! There will be corresponding contribution pPoints as a reward afterward!"
"We repeat!"
Hearing the voice from the broadcast, Gu Yuan understood what was happening.
Just as humans constantly encroach on the living areas of Pokémon, Pokémon occasionally attack the places where humans live. In ancient times, humans and Pokémon could not live in harmony, instead launching one great war after another.
It wasn't until the methods of training Pokémon appeared, coupled with the birth of the most ancient tool similar to a Poké Ball, that the world's situation gradually changed.
Today, humans are clearly the masters of this world, and the areas where Pokémon can move are constantly being compressed, so such attacks are not particularly strange.
Without hesitation, Gu Yuan headed toward the outskirts of the town. There was no way Gu Yuan would miss out on an opportunity to earn contribution points and reputation.
By the time Gu Yuan arrived, the villagers, led by the police, had already formed a defensive line. It seemed this kind of incident had happened so many times that the entire Fengmu Town was highly experienced. Behind Gu Yuan, many trainers were still arriving one after another.
In the distance, black dots were already visible in the sky, steadily growing larger.
Gu Yuan activated the system's detection function, revealing the information of the Fearow flock.
The attackers were all evolved Fearow, with strengths at Junior Rank and above, numbering around one hundred. Junior Rank made up the majority, with a small portion being Intermediate Rank, and two or three Senior Rank Fearow.
In the past, Gu Yuan might have considered this a powerful force, but now he was confident he could wipe them all out, given a little time.
"Alakazam, take me to Officer Jenny."
Glancing at the crowd, Gu Yuan decided to rely on Alakazam's Teleport. In the blink of an eye, Gu Yuan appeared in front of Officer Jenny. The sudden appearance of a person, on the other hand, startled Officer Jenny.
"Officer Jenny, I will take care of those Senior Rank Fearow. I will defeat them before they even arrive."
"Without their leaders, dealing with this attack should be much easier."
As he spoke, Gu Yuan also released Charizard, in case Officer Jenny lacked confidence in his ability. Behind Officer Jenny, many people were shocked by Gu Yuan's display of strength.
"Very well. Please be sure to be careful, prioritize your own safety above all else. Don't forget, we are still here to help."
"Yes!"
Without any unnecessary talk, Gu Yuan had Alakazam use Teleport to take him away.
After leaving the crowd, Gu Yuan released Annihilape and Ditto to help Annihilape boost the power of its Rage Fist to the maximum. Outside the town, Officer Jenny observed Gu Yuan through binoculars. If Gu Yuan encountered danger, she would immediately command her Growlithe to assist.
"Alakazam, use Ally Switch!"
Upon approaching the Fearow flock, Gu Yuan targeted the Fearow flying right at the front. Ally Switch activated, and the Fearow leader instantly vanished from its original position. Seeing Alakazam suddenly appear, the rest of the Fearow were clearly stunned.
Alakazam used Psychic to launch the first attack for suppression. The Fearow that was switched out, however, fell immediately to Annihilape's Rage Fist.
Phantom Force activated again, and Annihilape charged toward the remaining two Senior Rank Fearow. Wingull flapped its wings in the air, the light of Helping Hand enveloping Charizard. Dragon Rush released, the Dragon-type energy covered Charizard, transforming it into a majestic giant dragon that charged toward the Fearow flock.
"Roar!"
The sound of a dragon's roar echoed. Seeing the sudden appearance of the giant dragon and the Senior Rank aura it exuded, the Fearow, who were only Junior Rank and Intermediate Rank, instantly panicked.
This was the moment the Senior Rank Fearow should have stepped up to stabilize the morale, but unfortunately, they were too busy saving themselves. Under the pincer attack of Alakazam and Annihilape, the remaining two Fearow were also defeated.
"Charizard, use Fire Blast continuously."
"Alakazam, use Psychic to support and be ready to use Teleport and Ally Switch to cover Charizard."
"Annihilape, target the Intermediate Rank Fearow, and take them out one by one!"
A string of commands rang out. Gu Yuan decided that single-handedly clearing out this Fearow flock would be faster.
