Chapter 61: Stunning Bidoof Tribe
The Bidoof Leader took the lead in attacking Tropius, pouncing toward Tropius with lightning speed.
“Quick Attack?” Lu Li’s eyes narrowed slightly upon seeing this. Leaving aside other aspects, just in terms of skills, this Bidoof Leader completely crushed the previous Noctowl Leader.
“Tropius, use Razor Leaf to disrupt its vision.” Lu Li commanded.
Seeing their leader charge ahead, the Bidoof behind did not hesitate, and the five Bidoof behind the Bidoof Leader simultaneously used Gust.
Under the advantage of Tailwind, the power and speed of the Bidoof Leader’s Quick Attack rose yet another level, while Tropius, whose flight ability was originally inferior to Bidoof, appeared shaky and unsteady in the gale.
Seeing this, Lu Li hurriedly wrapped Tropius with spiritual power, barely stabilizing Tropius, who let out a frustrated cry.
“Tropius, let’s get close to the ground.” Lu Li reminded softly.
Fighting against the Bidoof in the vast sky was definitely not a wise move.
Tropius was actually better at low-altitude combat rather than high-altitude combat.
After Quick Attack missed, the Bidoof Leader could instantly turn in mid-air and continue charging toward the descending Tropius.
Seeing this, Lu Li was startled and hurriedly formed hand seals with both hands.
Golden Needle Technique activated!
The golden needle, turning into a streak of streamer, instantly flew toward the Bidoof.
Facing such an ultra-fast attack, the Bidoof Leader just tried to dodge when it was instantly pierced through the wing by the golden needle.
“Bidoo~”
The Bidoof Leader let out another sharp cry, and with its injured wing, it plummeted toward the forest below.
Seeing this, Lu Li hurriedly commanded: “Tropius, let’s press the advantage and use Leech Seed on the remaining Bidoof.”
Tropius quickly condensed Leech Seed and shot it toward the Bidoof still using Gust.
However, the Leech Seed going against the wind was blown down by the gale before it could approach the Bidoof.
Seeing this, the corner of Lu Li’s mouth twitched slightly, and he complained: “Tropius, how many times have I told you, you need to strengthen the propulsion of your Leech Seed!”
Tropius cried out in grievance.
Five Gusts blowing together! What could I do?
Lu Li narrowed his eyes at the five Bidoof, having to admit one thing: he had indeed been outplayed by this group of Bidoof.
“Using skills at the same frequency—this is already the combat method of a Pokémon Legion. It’s unbelievable that this appears in a wild Pokémon tribe.” Lu Li murmured softly.
In this world where Pokémon are versatile, Pokémon can not only be used for daily work but also to form legions.
Powerful legions can even match Heavenly King Level Trainers head-on, relying on this same-frequency skill usage.
Imagine tens of thousands of Pokémon simultaneously using Gust—what a terrifying gale they would unleash?
And this group of Bidoof in front of him had actually achieved this, which was truly unbelievable.
“Looks like I can only take them down one by one.”
Lu Li gently patted Tropius’s neck.
Tropius instantly comprehended and plunged into the forest. Darting swiftly through the forest, Tropius soon arrived below the Bidoof.
“Boom!”
Tropius burst through the trees and used Headbutt on one of the Bidoof.
The frail abdomen critically hit, the Bidoof instantly fell, disrupting the synchronized Gust maintained by the five Bidoof.
Seizing the opportunity, Lu Li used Golden Needle Technique on one of them, while Tropius took the chance to injure a Bidoof’s wing with Razor Leaf.
The five Bidoof were instantly reduced to two.
If it were the previous Noctowl, these two Bidoof would have fled long ago.
But this time’s Bidoof were different from the Noctowl; these Bidoof were more loyal to their own leader. Seeing three companions knocked down, the remaining two Bidoof launched a suicide Tackle directly at Tropius.
“Bang!”
Tropius dodged one Bidoof’s Tackle, but was still hit by the one behind.
Relying on its powerful vitality, Tropius merely shook and quickly stabilized its body.
“Tropius, Leech Seed.” Lu Li on Tropius’s back hurriedly reminded.
Without the gale’s interference, Tropius’s Leech Seed finally hit the remaining Bidoof this time.
After Leech Seed hit, the long-absent Star Absorbing Technique activated.
With the exertion of Special Growth, the vitality of the two Bidoof was instantly drained, and they plummeted from the sky.
After doing all this, Lu Li had Tropius land beside the Bidoof Leader.
Telepathy activated. Lu Li looked at the weakened Bidoof Leader and asked in a low tone: “Can we talk calmly now?”
The Bidoof Leader cried weakly.
“Bidoo~”
(I lost. This forest is yours, but can you spare the young Pidgey?)
“I don’t want your territory.” Lu Li said.
“Bidoo~”
(No territory, then what do you want?)
For wild Pokémon, the most important thing is living space. If not for survival, who would fight to the death?
So the Bidoof Leader couldn’t understand what Lu Li really wanted.
At this moment, the Bidoof Leader also reacted.
This time, his enemy was not a wild Pokémon, but a human Trainer.
Thinking of this, the Bidoof instantly guessed Lu Li’s purpose.
“Bidoo?”
(You’re here for Sitou Fruit?)
“Sitou Fruit?”
Hearing this name, Lu Li first frowned, then instantly realized.
This explained everything.
Sitou Fruit was one of the Rare Berries. Though not as precious as Sand Scale Fruit, it had equally heaven-defying effects.
Sitou Fruit could stimulate a Pokémon’s speed potential, but it could only be used once, and using Sitou Fruit alone to stimulate potential carried a risk of life.
In plain terms, the effect of Sitou Fruit was gambling with life for a chance at speed potential stimulation.
But after years of human effort and research, the ancients found a way to develop speed potential without risking life.
That was to make it into a potion, named Speed Development Potion.
Sitou Fruit was the main ingredient of Speed Development Potion.
“This forest has such a good thing?” Lu Li’s eyes lit up as he looked at the Bidoof Leader.
Although Sitou Fruit could only work once, there was a world of difference between one enhancement and zero.
Facing the self-confessing Bidoof Leader, Lu Li nodded and admitted: “Correct, I want Sitou Fruit.”
“Bidoo~”
(As long as you don’t harm us, you can have all those Sitou Fruit.)
The Bidoof Leader answered without hesitation.
In the wilderness, it’s winner takes all. This Trainer only taking Sitou Fruit was already the best outcome.
The Bidoof struggled to stand up from the ground. Looking at its pierced right wing, a flash of heartbreak passed through its eyes, but unlike the Noctowl, it was not despairing.
In the wilderness, a Bidoof that couldn’t fly would only have despair left, but fortunately, it still had its tribe.
Seeing this, Lu Li took the initiative: “I can heal you.”
As he spoke, Lu Li took out Good Medicine from the Space Backpack.
Seeing the spray-type Healing Medicine Lu Li took out, a spark lit up in the Bidoof’s eyes.
“You know this thing?” Lu Li asked in surprise.
The Bidoof nodded: “I once had a Trainer.”
