Pokemon: Rising From The Dark

The other Pokémon who witnessed the evolution of the Slowpoke all had a look of shock on their faces.

All of a sudden, the Slowking smiled, and the Honchkrow leaders immediately confirmed that the Pokémon standing in front of them was their once naive partner.

"Caw boom!"

Slowking shouted to the group of Slowpoke.

What responded to him were the cries of all the Slowpoke, and they looked at Slowking adoringly, looking at their king.

"Master, I want to find a safe place for them to live." Slowking said to Aoki through telepathy.

Aoki thought for a while, and then seemed to think of something.

He smiled and said, "Then take them to Verdanturf Town. I just want to open a Water-type Gym there. I will dig a huge lake in Verdanturf Town. The Slowpoke will live in it. I will ask someone to import a batch of Shellder from the Kanto region and put them in the lake together so that the Slowpoke and Shellder can attract each other and evolve."

The leader's aura on Slowking was obviously closely related to the clan of Slowpoke.

If the aura of the leader is to remain, then it is best to keep this group of Slowpoke under control.

Aoki also wanted to see if the leader's aura could grow.

If the group of Slowpoke expands, will there be any changes in Slowking's momentum?

There are a lot of Water-type Pokémon in this lake, and they are also very diverse. If possible, they will all be moved to the lake in Verdanturf Town.

Such a Water-type Gym would be considered complete. At the very least, it needs to be an attractive place. If others want to capture Water Pokémon, they must think of this Gym.

Once people remember this place, it will become more and more famous and develop faster.

Slowking nodded happily. Ever since he evolved, he felt an inexplicable responsibility on his shoulders.

As one of the few Slowking in the Pokémon world, he needed to be responsible for one or more groups of Slowpoke.

If possible, he hoped to gather more Slowpoke so that they would no longer be bullied by others.

"Then, let's deal with them first!" Aoki said with a sneer.

The Sharpedo that were still in the water also witnessed Slowking's evolution, and fear appeared in their eyes.

Why did the two-legged Pokémon in front of them emit such an oppressive aura?

Slowking nodded, waiting for Aoki's order.

"Slowking, this is your first battle after evolution. Show your opponents your strength and let your companions get to know you again! Use Nasty Plot!" Aoki said loudly.

Nasty Plot is a move that Slowpoke learns upon evolving into Slowking. By scheming and activating its mind, its special attack is greatly increased!

Slowpoke evolved into Slowking, but the biggest difference was in intelligence.

Whether it was Slowpoke or Slowbro, they both had a vacant expression, but Slowking gave off an aura of wisdom.

The corners of Slowking's mouth raised slightly, as if he had thought of a plan.

After using Nasty Plot, his special attack was greatly improved.

"Slowking, use Miracle Eye, then Calm Mind! I want to take out all those weaklings! Honchkrow, Sneasel, and Skorupi, bring those who can't fight to the shore!" Aoki ordered.

"Caw boom!"

Slowking yelled, and colorful lights appeared in his eyes, as if he had seen through the essence of the Dark-type Pokémon.

Then, energy balls wrapped in dark psychic power appeared, flying in different directions.

Boom boom boom!

With the explosion of psychic energy, some Carvanha in the water were immediately knocked out.

Honchkrow took the opportunity to grab distant Carvanha with his claws.

Those closer were left to Sneasel, who formed an ice path on the lake's surface, using his elongated claws and Skorupi's tail to fling the Carvanha ashore.

Slowking didn't stop. After one attack, another followed.

This time, the Sharpedo tried to stop him, but Slowking ignored them for now, focusing entirely on the weaker Carvanha.

Three minutes later.

The fully unleashed Slowking had cleared all the Carvanha from the water's surface. Even those hiding underwater could not escape Slowking's sight and perception.

Of the entire Sharpedo population in the lake, only a few remained.

The leader of the Sharpedo had red light in its eyes as it watched its tribe being picked off one by one, but it could do nothing.

Slowking, who had been attacking non-stop for three minutes, didn't feel tired in the slightest.

This showed just how immense his psychic power reserves were.

"Slowking, only they remain. Let's finish them! Try a new psychic attack method. Your total psychic power is vast, but your output is limited. Try condensing your energy into a needle-shaped psychic spear. That will make your attacks even deadlier." Aoki suggested.

"Caw dong!" Slowking instantly understood Aoki's meaning, and his eyes flashed blue.

Massive psychic energy and telekinetic power swirled together, but rather than being dispersed, it began to concentrate.

Under the guidance of telekinesis, the psychic energy quickly formed a spear-like shape.

Then, it was compressed further, with more psychic energy added to it.

It was Slowking's first time attempting this, so his control was still somewhat rough.

But the overall concept was sound.

In the future, psychic power could be condensed into different forms, like a blade or a sword.

Perhaps this was the principle behind the move Psycho Cut.

For now, unable to refine it further, Slowking launched the psychic spear at a Sharpedo.

This was a Sharpedo second only to the leader in strength.

With a green rating and level 34, if not for Miracle Eye, it would have been a nightmare for most Psychic-type Pokémon.

The psychic spear shot toward Sharpedo at high speed. In the blink of an eye, it was upon the target.

Sharpedo's eyes widened, but before it could react, the spear struck.

Boom!

The condensed psychic energy was overwhelmingly effective. Not only was the speed improved, but the power was doubled.

Sharpedo's body twitched violently, as if its brain had been overloaded.

Then, just like the Carvanha, it rolled over and fainted.

One Sharpedo was taken out instantly by Slowking's attack.

However, this attack had one flaw—it took Slowking too long to form. If the opponent had known what he was doing, they would have escaped long ago.
