Chapter 60: ????
After receiving the Rainbow gym badge, Ash and the others stayed in Celadon City for another day.
During this day, they experienced the Drowzee incident, and in this incident, Misty also caught the Psyduck from the original story.
After leaving Celadon City, under Brock's guidance, the trio stayed in a small town for a day.
On this day, Ash's Feebas, through self-hypnosis, completed a leap in its life level and successfully evolved into Milotic.
Brock also obtained a Vulpix from a beautiful breeder.
Ash also took advantage of the stop to send the Millennium Ghost back to Professor Oak's Laboratory.
This Pokémon didn't like fighting, and Ash really didn't want to force it.
Of course, sending it back to the laboratory also came with a task, which was to help Ash make money.
After traveling, Ash also felt that connecting in this world was really inconvenient, so he specifically exchanged design blueprints for smartphones and some social software codes in the system.
(PS: The current technology level is set against the backdrop of the original series, a fan-made setting, please don't argue, thanks!)
Ash had already planned that once the phone became popular, he would gather his friends from various regions into a group chat.
After the Team Rocket Trio were sent by Ash to Professor Oak's Laboratory to work for him, Ash and their journey became much smoother, but relatively, there was less fun.
Today, Ash decided to start letting his dog, Riolu, join the training, and Primeape was also released.
"Primeape, Riolu, today I'm going to teach you some special fighting techniques, so pay close attention!"
That's right, Ash was going to teach these two Fighting-type Pokémon to learn Eight Extremities Fist.
"Riolu halahala" Riolu was full of excitement.
"Monkey!" Primeape had the same expression.
As the saying goes, 'Tai Chi for peace, Baji for stability.'
Eight Extremities Fist emphasizes practical combat, and for these two Fighting-type Pokémon, this martial art is very compatible.
Eight Extremities Fist's moves are very simple; the key is to exert force at critical points.
The true essence of many martial arts lies in their force exertion techniques.
If the force exertion technique is exquisite and can mobilize the whole body's strength, even the simplest moves can cause considerable damage.
If the moves are spectacular but the force exertion technique is crude, the result is just a showy display, like Taekwondo, which focuses on visually appealing movements to attract attention, never losing in performance but never winning in actual combat.
For the first lesson, Ash didn't teach anything too difficult, only the basic introductory practice—the Eight Vajra Postures: Supporting Hammer, Subduing Dragon, Taming Tiger, Mountain Splitting Palm, Horse Probing Palm, Tiger Embrace, Bear Squat, and Crane Not Pushing.
Once the basics are solid, it's easier to master the more lethal moves later and apply them better in actual combat.
Beside them, Misty, watching Ash teach diligently, couldn't help but exclaim, "Ash really knows a lot of things!"
"It's indeed a good training method for Fighting-type Pokémon to learn ancient martial arts.
Ash's training methods are truly unique, which might be why he can become a Pokémon Professor." Brock commented while busy preparing lunch.
"Pika?"
Pikachu showed a puzzled expression.
In his impression, many of Ash's things appeared out of nowhere.
For example, the boxing technique Ash was teaching now, Pikachu had never seen Ash use it, and not long ago when he caught Primeape, he was still fighting with wild punches...
Just as Ash was engrossed in teaching, an Hitmonchan, who was jogging and practicing punches, stopped and stared at Ash and Riolu.
"Hey, that's Hitmonchan!" Misty pointed at the captivated Hitmonchan and said.
"Huh?"
Ash followed Misty's refer to and also saw Hitmonchan.
[Pokémon: Hitmonchan]
[Gender: Male]
[Level: Excellent Intermediate]
[Ability: Keen Eye]
[Potential: Excellent]
[Skills: Focus Energy, Mach Punch, Vacuum Wave, Bullet Punch, Detect, Quick Guard, Mega Punch.....]
"Hitmonchan is also a Fighting-type Pokémon.
It evolves from Tyrogue.
This Hitmonchan looks very strong, Ash, do you want to catch it?" Brock suggested.
"No, this one isn't wild."
Ash's Aura sensed a human presence.
"Ah, young man, I see that the two Fighting-type Pokémon you're training are very good.
Would you like to have a match?"
No sooner had Ash finished speaking than an uncle appeared.
"A battle with Hitmonchan? No problem!"
Ash usually doesn't refuse Pokémon battles initiated by others.
After all, it's a good way to gain battle experience!
Most importantly, Ash recognized that this guy in front of him was the one from the original story who tricked idiot into leaving Primeape behind.
He felt it was necessary to teach this guy a lesson.
"Okay, for the battle, I'll be the referee!" Brock volunteered.
"No problem, but the rule is that only physical moves can be used; non-physical moves are not allowed!" the uncle added.
Hearing this, Brock looked at Ash, asking with his eyes if Ash wanted to accept.
Ash nodded and said, "Okay, I accept."
"Hitmonchan, let's use this battle as a warm-up before the P1 Fighting Competition!" The uncle said to Hitmonchan with excitement.
Hitmonchan's eyes also gradually sharpened.
"Primeape, use this battle to solidify the techniques you just learned."
"Here we go, Hitmonchan, Mach Punch!"
"Primeape, use the Supporting Hammer I just taught you."
Primeape extended its left hand to parry Hitmonchan's punch, while simultaneously throwing a right hook directly at Hitmonchan's chest.
After hitting, it retracted its right hand and, seizing the opportunity, swung its left hand out heavily again.
In just three hits, Hitmonchan was knocked back several steps, with some injuries on its body.
If Primeape hadn't been slightly shorter than Hitmonchan, Primeape wouldn't have been hitting its chest, but rather pummeling Hitmonchan's head.
"Very good, Primeape, Cross Chop!"
Receiving the command, Primeape crossed its arms and struck Hitmonchan's body fiercely.
Hitmonchan took the heavy Cross Chop and instantly fell to the ground, but it hadn't completely lost its ability to fight and was still struggling to get up.
"Hitmonchan, can you still fight?" The uncle asked with some concern.
He had thought this battle would be an easy win, but he didn't expect to hit a brick wall.
If he had known Ash was so strong, he wouldn't have fought this battle.
The P1 Fighting Competition was about to begin, and if Hitmonchan was seriously injured, his dream would be shattered.
"Primeape, give him the final..."
Just as Ash was about to have Primeape end the battle, a girl with a braid stood between Primeape and Hitmonchan.
"Enough, stop fighting.
Dad, don't get lost in this endless fighting anymore! Let's go home!"
"Aimi..." The uncle, seeing the girl's appearance, lost most of his fighting spirit, but he still stubbornly said, "I will never go home until I win the P1 Fighting Competition Champion!"
