In the footage—
Ash and the others met Dragonite and Team Rocket. After seeing them, Dragonite directly used Hyper Beam to attack them without saying a word! With just one move, the Hyper Beam created a massive ravine in front of them! Extremely powerful!
However, this sabotage seemed to be deliberately deflected, intended to deter them.
After using Hyper Beam, Dragonite directly grabbed the Team Rocket trio and quickly left, leaving Ash and the others with no idea what had happened.
[Clair: How is it possible… That's the Pokémon of the former Gym Leader! Why would it obey Team Rocket's commands?]
[Drake: It should be that Team Rocket used some trick to cause Dragonite to misunderstand. You see, even if Dragonite used Hyper Beam, it did not directly attack Ash and the others, but acted more as a deterrent.]
[Lance: Indeed. From this point of view, Dragonite is still kind; Team Rocket's rhetoric should have deceived it. What kind of riot will Team Rocket cause this time? Could it be that it helped Ash's Charizard improve again?]
Several of Team Rocket's previous operations had helped Ash, which could be regarded as having a bad heart but doing good things.
So it's understandable that Lance would guess so. However, this time… It's different. This time, Team Rocket are real villains!
In the Footage—
After Dragonite stopped Ash and the others, Clair also heard the movement on this side and rushed over. After communicating with Ash and the others, Clair decided:
"That Dragonite must be the one belonging to the previous Gym Leader! He must have been deceived by Team Rocket.
That's why Dragonite attacked you, Ash. But Dragonite is still kind at heart; he didn't hurt you. As long as I see Dragonite again and explain clearly, he will understand he has been deceived."
Dragonite doesn't know Ash and the others, so it's normal to be deceived by Team Rocket.
But Dragonite knows her! As long as they meet Dragonite again, the misunderstanding will be cleared, and the Team Rocket trio will be doomed! Everyone nodded and prepared to continue into the depths to find Team Rocket.
At this moment, Ash suddenly turned around and looked up at the sky in the distance. It felt like... something familiar was in that direction… and it was getting closer.
Under the dazzling hot sun, a small black dot was rapidly approaching. Everyone followed Ash's gaze and also found the black spot.
"What is that… a new enemy?"
Clair was immediately alert, but as the black dot slowly approached, she also saw the figure of the comer. Her tight heart couldn't help but relax.
"It turned out to be…"
"Charizard!!!"
A voice called out the name of the newcomer faster than Clair. Clair looked at Ash in surprise.
It was indeed a Charizard, but… why was he so excited? This Charizard was quite famous in the Charizard Valley.
According to Liza, this Charizard relied on its own perseverance to rise from the weakest in the valley to the middle and upper reaches in a very short time.
His will and talent were amazing. The Blackthorn Gym was often the venue where this Charizard came to train because of its ability to train dragons, so she knew him. But Ash, why did he…
"Roar!!"
The Charizard in the distance let out a roar, and then a scorching jet of flame directly pasted Ash's face! Ash and the Pikachu on his shoulder instantly turned into black charcoal.
The "Super Pallet Townian's" mouth also spewed out a puff of black smoke. Misty and Brock were startled at first, and then said happily:
"It's really Ash's Charizard!"
"The way this signature Flamethrower greets him confirms it. It's Ash's Charizard!"
Charizard hugged Ash, who had turned into black charcoal, and its scarlet tongue licked the black marks off the faces of Ash and Pikachu.
Having his face sprayed with flames, except for a little scorching, not a single hair was missing—this is the strength of a Super Pallet Townian!
"So this Charizard is Ash's Charizard?"
Clair heard Misty's words and saw how close they were; it was instantly clear. It turned out that this legendary Charizard was actually Ash's!
"Hahaha, it's so ticklish, Charizard."
"Pika-pika~~"
After a period of intimacy, Ash asked how Charizard came here. Before Charizard could answer, another figure flew in the distance—no, it was two.
A Charizard wearing a bow on its head was flying quickly with a woman on its back. When the visitor approached, Ash and the others found this woman was also an acquaintance: Charizard Valley Administrator, Liza! And her Charizard, Charla!
Brock had a "heart attack" and rushed up, but before he could start his routine, Misty grabbed his ears and pulled him back.
Liza covered her mouth and snickered; this wasn't the first time she'd seen Brock's behavior. Even Clair was almost used to it.
After everyone talked, Ash learned that the Blackthorn Gym was the place where Charizard often came to train!
The Blackthorn Gym… it turns out it's not just for training dragons? As long as you bring a "dragon"! Just like Mr. Lance accepted a bunch of Pokémon that look like dragons; as long as they carry the vibe of a dragon, they are dragons!!
Got it! Learned a lot again!
In the video, Ash's inner thoughts were displayed. Lance's face turned blue. What words! What is this called!! What is called "with dragon characters is a dragon"! Charizards, Aerodactyls, and Gyarados… aside from the dragon character, they obviously look like dragons!
[Diantha: I'm going to die laughing!! Hahahaha! "As long as the Pokémon with the word dragon is a dragon"~ hahaha!]
[Caitlin: No, I can't hold it back. Lance basically says: "I say you are a dragon and you are a dragon.jpg"! ]
[Drake: Eh… although, but… Mr. Lance, you are known as the invincible Dragon Master. Is it true you only have Dragonite? There are no Gyarados, Haxorus, and the like?]
[Lance: … I have lived in a Dragon Tamer family since I was a child. Pokémon like Gyarados and Charizard were actually defaulted to dragons… only after I nurtured them into talents did I find out… Alas, the past is hard to look back on!]
Lance said they were all "family pits." When they are young, who knows these Pokémon are not Dragon-type!
They look like it, use dragon skills, and the names have "dragon," but they aren't! Outrageous! It was too late to change his team later, and now he is actually train other dragon Pokémon, like Altaria… however, there is still a long way to go to reach Champion level with them.
[Drake: Cough, look at the inventory, look at the inventory.]
Drake decisively shifted the conversation back. It was better not to poke Lance's scars.
