31. Totodile

"Ash, you have been very lucky recently. You have already caught several Pokémon here!"

Sitting quietly by the river stream, enjoying the fun of fishing, Misty, who was sitting right next to Ash, couldn't help but wonder about Ash recent efficiency in conquering Pokémon.

When he was in the Kanto Region, he traveled throughout the region, collected eight Badges, and participated in the Indigo League Conference, but only captured ten Pokémon.

Those 30 Tauros he previously had were counted as one because being of the same species.

But after arriving in the Johto Region, he only got two Badges, but Ash had already conquered 5 new Pokemon's, namely Heracross, Bayleef, Quilava, Slowpoke and Houndour.

As a water-type Pokémon Trainer, Misty has not yet catch a new member for her team.

On the contrary, Brock caught a Pineco.

After catching Houndour, Asg temporarily sent Slowpoke to Professor Oak.

This Houndour was very strong for its species because he was the Leader of the Houndour Pack. He had gone through hundreds of battles. Before voluntarily following Ash, he handed over the position of the Leader of the group to the Houndour who had recovered from his injury.

In fact, the Houndour's leg was injured when he challenged his Houndour for the position of the Big Boss.

Now it wants to fight with along side Ash, naturally handing over the position of the leader over.

Therefore, it is very determined to follow Ash, and its compatibility with him is very high.

It has accumulated enough experience and strength. I believe that after being trained by Ash, it will evolve soon and its bond will be greatly improved again.

Maybe it's not far too away from the point of Bonds Evolution.

The one that Asg is currently putting the most effort into completing the Bond Evolution is Snorlax. After all, it has very high compatibility, so until then, he will always carry it with him.

Secondly, it is to Ash's Slowpoke and Houndour who were the leader of their respective groups.

As long as they complete the evolution, they may reach the peak of compatibility, and the bond value will also increase by then, and they may be able to achieve Bond Evolution.

But there is no rush for Slowpoke's evolution. Professor Oak is also very interested in this unusual and extremely intelligent Slowpoke of his.

"Stop being jealous, Misty, you said you're a genius fisherwoman, didn't you say you want to me how to fish? Why can't you catch any fish?" Hearing Ash's voice next to her ear, Misty couldn't help but laugh.

(Brock is a little further back making food for everyone.)

What Ash and Misty got from Kurt was the Lure Ball, which is particularly useful for water Pokémon. They happened to pass by a river that looked good, and Misty suggested that they go fishing.

In fact, everyone tacitly understood that Misty was simply envious of Ash for having captured so many Pokémon, so she wanted to catch one as soon as possible.

"I hope I can catch a Shellder so that I can evolve Slowpoke!" Ash actually enjoyed fishing. It felt good to be able to relax like this.

"As for Shellder, there should be quite a few Cerulean gyms. How about I ask my sisters to send one over!" Misty asked with concern.

She thought that Ash only wanted to evolve Slowpoke into a Slowbro. They already knew that in order for Slowpoke to evolve into a Slowbro, a Shellder needs to bite was its tail.

However, Ash shook his head, "I'd better catch one myself! By the way, Misty, your Staryu level is already very high, why don't you consider letting it evolve?"

Misty's Staryu was Misty's Pokémon even before they met.

After traveling to the Kanto Region and the Orange Islands, this Staryu is obviously very strong and is now of of Misty's most dependent partner.

It's just that Staryu's evolution, like Pikachu, requires special evolution stones.

That is the Water Stone.

Staryu's evolved form is called Starmie. After evolving, Starmie can obtain the Psychic typing, which will improve both combat effectiveness and the diversity of combat methods.

If Staryu can evolve, Misty's strength will definitely improve a lot, and she will be one step closer to her dream of being a water Pokémon master.

Now for Ash, it is very simple to obtain various evolutionary stones. You only need to use exchange points to exchange them.

Before Misty could answer, there was movement on her Fishing Rod. After closing the rod, she fished an old kettle!

"Shot!"

Just smash the kettle on the ground. How can you throw garbage in the water like this? You need to sort the garbage well!

With this interruption, the conversation between Misty and Ash just ended.

Just when Ash was about to say something, his Fishing Rod suddenly tightened.

"Here it is!"

Ash knew how to fish, and a blue light flashed all over his body, and the ordinary Fishing Rod seemed to be covered with blue Armament Haki.

He really didn't have any skills at all when it comes to fishing, he just reeled in the line and lifted the rod, and a small blue crocodile appeared under his fishing rod!

They all know this little crocodile. It is Totodile, the Water type Starter given to Rookie Trainer in the Johto Region Region!

When they were in New Bark Town before, Ash and his team also helped retrieve the Totodile that was stolen by Team Rocket!

"Ash, you are so lucky now! You even caught Totodile!" Misty couldn't help but feel lemony sour again!

"Now that you've caught it, you have to catch it!"

Ash was just about to throw the Poké Ball when Totodile suddenly opened his mouth and let go of the hook, falling to the ground and dancing happily.

"So cute!" Misty already liked Totodile very much from the time when she first saw it!

Ash's Poké Ball was thrown out, and the Grass type Bayleef jumped out.

"Bayleef, use Vine Whil!"

Two thick and powerful vines waved towards the dancing Totodile.

Unexpectedly, Totodile actually danced and easily avoided Bayleef's Vine Whips.

"This dance does not looks easy!" Ash couldn't help but praise, "Use Sweet Scent!"

The sweet scent emanated from the buds on Bayleef's neck, and Totodile soon became lethargic and less energetic.

"Use your vines again!"

This time the Vine Whil hit the target head-on, and Ash threw the Poké Ball at that moment and in only two shakes, the Totodile was now his.

"I just got a Totodile!"

"Pikachu!"

"Ash, use Totodile to fight with me! Go, Poliwag!"

Misty's Poliwag fits her very well.

Although he didn't know why Misty suddenly wanted to fight with him, since Misty had already sent out Pokémon, Ash naturally wouldn't refuse.

"It's up to you, Totodile!"

Totodile, who appeared again, has recovered from the Sweet Scent and started dancing with great energy once again.

"Poliwag, use Water Gun!"

"Totodile, you use the Water Gun too!"

Totodile's Water Gun is very powerful, and he is on par with Poliwag who was trained by Misty. It can be said that this one was already quite strong before even being trained by him.

"Poliwag, use Tackle!"

"Totodile, dodge and use Bite!"

Totodile's dance moves were indeed extraordinary, and he easily dodged Poliwag's attack, and then bit hard with his powerful jaws.

"Very good, now just throw it out like this!"

Poliwag fell in front of Misty and suddenly began to release the light of evolution! It has finally evolving!

"Poliwag evolved into a Polwhirl!"

After evolution, her Poliwhirl has grown arms and legs but lost its tail. It has the feeling of a devilish muscular guy, with short legs, a big stomach area and strong arms, and its big eyes are also very adorable.

"Wow, that's so cool. This sticky muscle feels so comfortable!" Misty lay completely on Poliwhirls head.

Now that her Poliwag has evolved, Misty has no intention of continuing the battle. She puts her Poliwhirl away and says, "Ash, I'm sorry, I just wanted to confirm your current strength personally. Sure enough, you knew Totodile's strength right away!"

Ash shook his head, "Misty, I will give you this Water Stone. Whether it's the evolution of Staryu or your Poliwhirl, you can use the Water Stone!"

"Water Stone? Ash, thank you! You are much stronger than me now, but I can't lose in the future!"

She just came close to him and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

Totodile: 110/160

Bayleef: 203/215
