Chapter 28 - Deadly Battle!

Ganging up on one Pokemon was a bit saddening, but Gan could care less about things like that. Venonat could use Psychic moves, so it could deal with threats like Beedrill with ease. There were no Dark Pokemon In Kanto, so Gan could only wait until he journeyed to Johto where they roamed about.

Psychic Pokemon were far too strong in the Generation 1 games, until they made Dark types put them in check. Dragons were the same, they were out of control until Fairy types came along to put them in check.

In any case, Gan had Grimer and Koffing attack, while Geodude sat back. It also used an attack but it didn't fly or go in closer like the latters. Gan warned them to beware of the attacks it could use, as they were super effective against them.

Koffing would especially receive a harsh blow since its Special Defense wasn't so good.

Venonat turned around and saw the strange duo of purple and creepy Pokemon approaching it with bad intentions. Venonat's expression didn't show shock or change; this was only because its expression couldn't change.

But when it saw them both, it didn't have any thoughts of fighting these 2. Their appearances alone were enough to scare it.

It only had one thing in mind at that moment, and that was to run!

Venonat turned around as fast as it could and booked it towards the forest at unreal speed.

"It's trying to escape, catch him!" Gan was stunned, he thought he could just quickly defeat this Pokemon. He didn't strategize like he normally did because he was worried about this Zone, so all thoughts of planning went out the window.

Grimer opened it's mouth a shot a big brown ball at Venonat; Grimer and Koffing had lower speed compare to Venonat, so they weren't catching this little guy.

The move that Grimer shot off was Mud Bomb. Koffing also shot a flamethrower, but it was too late. Venonat had already jumped into the thicket and disappeared.

"F**K!" Gan cursed and sighed. The little furball was just too fast, while Koffing and Grimer were slow as s**t!

"Come back, guys, forget it." Gan called them back over, he came here to scout and see if he'd get fortunate enough to find anything new to catch. He did get fortunate to find something, but he couldn't catch it.

There was a probability of him encounter Pokemon in the high 20's, so he wasn't exploring this area anymore. Gan quickly left the area, he figured he'd just farm some Beedrill and Butterfree in this forest.

Feeling confident, he headed towards Beedrill's territory.

Gan finally understood something looking at his Pokemon's move sets. Having Pokemon was pretty costly, you had to feed them and you had to make sure they had some strong moves.

TMs weren't cheap, but it was a good thing that Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh used the same currency. It was best to accumulate as much money as he could for an easier journey and stronger Pokemon.

Gan wanted to at least evolve both his Nidoran and get his Geodude to level 20 or so. He couldn't catch that Venonat, so it was best to just evolve his Nidoran to complete the mission. As usual; Gan saw many warning signs with Beedrill's face on them.

Gan kept most of his Pokemon out with him, he didn't recall them. Once he was in the Zone, he kept walking. It was quiet here, but that was already weird, as it was a little too quiet. Usually, you would hear noises from Pokemon but it was dead silent.

"Daaaaaahhh~!!"

Right as he was walking while being surrounded by his Pokemon, he heard a scream.

"Dude! Do people come here to commit suicide!? Every time I come here, someone is screaming!" He only came here once, but Gan had the feeling that if ever kept visiting this place; all he would hear are screams!

Gan jumped when he heard the scream, but this time, he wanted to ignore it. He turned away and walked in a different direction, but the yelling got louder.

"Damn, does this guy know how to die?" Just as he said that three guys jumped out of the forest huffing and puffing.

"Really?" Gan's face turned desolate, he thought he was walking away from them but they were this close to him.

"You have to help us, we've all been poisoned and my friend here is injured!" The trio of men saw Gan and his Pokemon and felt like they were saved. Gan could tell they were poisoned from their faces, they were exhausted, while his friend was bleeding badly from his stomach.

"Bzzzz~!!"

Before Gan could say anything, he heard loud buzzing; this caused him to swipe at his ear but there obviously nothing there. Gan looked on in shock, the sky looked like it was darkening, it looked to be about 20 to 35 Beedrill heading this way.

"You idiots, you led all of those damn Beedrill to me!" Gan's eyes almost popped out of his eye sockets, how did they manage to upset so many of them!?

"W-we...." The man was speechless, he couldn't really talk anyway.

Gan put on no face in this threatening situation, it was just too many of them. Even if his level was higher, he had no choice but to call forth all of his Pokemon for this fight.

Gan tossed Pokeballs like never before, as he summoned many Pokemon he had caught in Mt. Moon and on Route 3.

Onix, Chansey, Clefairys, Sandshrew, Mankey, Beedrills, Ekans, Zubats, Butterfrees, Pidgeotto, Jigglypuff, etc!

Everyone's eyes went wide looking at the amount of Pokemon that were spawning.

"Everyone fight, take that army down, try not to get too close, and avoid those stingers!" Gan roared for all of them to hear. All of them looked towards the sky and readied themselves for battle.

The Swarm of Beedrill easily spotted the foreign Pokemon and went on the ȧssault. Onix was a big target, it became their main target of attack.

The 3 Butterfree attacked together by using Gust! The Energy or Aura of this attack gave off flying type damage, which would be more than enough to hurt them. Onix was using its tail to swipe at the attacking Beedrill around it.

Beedrill's stinger lit up with green light; this was their signature move Twineedle. Onix was hit and took heavy damage from this attack, it was being attacked by 6 Beedrill!

Koffing came over and puffed flames at them, knocking them out of the air with smoke fuming from their bodies. Gan had no choice but to recall Onix, it was basically a huge target in the eyes of these Beedrill.

"You morons, this is all your fault. What in the world did you 3 stooges do to piss them off to this level?" Gan looked at the group coldly, he wasn't trying to die an unfortunate death or at all for that matter.

"..."

"...."

"...."

They didn't say anything, they just put their heads down to avoid the question.

"Good, then enjoy being poisoned, you should die pretty soon." Gan smiled and pointed his attention back to his Pokemon.

A Beedrill was blown out of the sky at that moment; the minute it landed, it tried to get back up. Unfortunately for it, it was attacked by both Nidoran who were waiting patiently for this moment.

This was the same for any Beedrill that happened to get knocked out of the sky, Jigglypuff was slapping Beedrill like it owed it money. Grimer shot Mud Bombs from the ground, while Butterfree and Koffing did most of the work because they could fly.

Pidgeotto was no different, there seemed to be anger in every attack that it used, no, this was hate! It hated these Beedrill to the core, it had even managed to kill a few in its ȧssault by tearing them into pieces!

Gan was surprised, but he understood why it hated these Pokemon so much. After all, they were the ones that had sentenced its previous trainer to death. Pidgeotto and the Group of Butterfree were having a field day with these Beedrill; they were more excited than he expected.

The group of Clefairy shot a few Disarming Voices at them, but this move wasn't so effective on Beedrill. Rocks stumbled out of the void and knocked more Beedrill out of the sky. Beedrill started to target Butterfree since it was another hateful enemy of theirs.

Zubat was useless here, so Gan recalled it.

Beedrill managed to hit a Butterfree and knock it out of the sky. Gan recalled it and summoned it back to give it a Potion so it could go back into battle. The most unstoppable force here was Pidgeotto, it was mowing through Beedrill like weeds.

Wing Attack simply destroyed Beedrill, it was also backed by stab; they couldn't fight back! The Beedrill that were knocked out of the sky were either tackled on the ground if they got up, or beaten unconscious.

This was done by Mankey and Sandshrew, who had trained together before.

Mankey would tackle them, then Sandshrew would roll out on them. They were already hurt, so they couldn't withstand harmful attacks like rollout.

"S-sir, please heal us! We won't last long!" One of the men finally gave in, he didn't want to die.

"Oh, so you wanna talk now?" Gan smiled, "How about this, you pay for an antidote and you tell me why this Beedrill pack is so angry?"

"T-this..."

"Okay, you can go die then." Gan sneered.

"Okay, it was because we stole a strange egg from them, it's in his backpack!" One of them finally said.

"You idiot, why would you tell him that!?" The other man was instantly enraged but he couldn't do anything about it because of how weak he was feeling.

"An Egg?" Gan said with interest.

"How much are you selling an Antidote for, we ran out recently." The same man that gave in asked.

"₱30,000 per Antidote." Gan grinned as he counted on his finger.

"You're f**king crazy!!" The man actually vomited blood when he heard Gan's asking price. This was due to anger and the poison affecting him; mainly the poison.

"Uh, oh, that poison is starting to hit home, hahaha!" Gan only smiled at the group, he would take what money he could get.

Meanwhile, the battle was nearing its end. It was a good thing Gan carried so many Pokemon with him. Chansey only went over to heal Pokemon and didn't attack anyone.

"Pidgeotto is the real MVP here." Gan smiled strangely, that thing was truly too ruthless!
