Chapter 113 Fighting for a Hammer
That's right, this sneaky figure was Goh, who had run away from home.
After he left the hospital, he wanted to sneak onto a cross-region ship to start anew in another region, but how could his bad luck debuff allow him to get his wish?
The more he wanted to do something, the less he could achieve it. Every time he snuck onto a ship, he would be discovered for various reasons and then thrown off the ship.
However, his persistence caught the eye of a minor Team Aqua executive. This executive found an opportunity to recruit Goh, making him an peripheral member of Team Aqua.
Goh's main job was to distract inspection personnel by acting pitiful whenever Team Aqua was smuggling certain instruments.
Just as he was lost in thought, a burly man dressed in blue and white striped clothes, like a sailor, walked over.
"Hey, newbie, stop looking. Lugia is a legendary Pokémon. It's useless even if you see it. Get out of the way."
"Yes, Lord Kuiyang."
Goh was respectful on the surface, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes after he turned away.
"Those with Pokémon, follow me out to sea to catch Lugia!" Kuiyang shouted to the other Team Aqua members.
"Yes!"
Those Team Aqua members excitedly took out their Poké Balls.
Looking at everyone holding a Poké Ball, Goh showed a longing gaze, but he scoffed at the idea of these people trying to capture Lugia.
They didn't even consider how pathetic they were. Could they really capture Lugia?
Many Wild Trainers also had the same goal as Team Aqua and released their Pokémon.
For a time, Vermilion City Port became a Pokémon exhibition center, with all kinds of Pokémon: Eevee's Water, Electric, Fire, and Ice forms, Gengar, Wartortle, Raichu, and so on. Although these Pokémon were of different species, their strength was uniformly below the Gym Advanced level.

"A Champion-level Lugia?"
"I choose you, Mewtwo!"
Ash threw Mewtwo's Poké Ball.
Mewtwo glanced at Lugia in the distance, showing no desire to act. Under Ash's gaze, it touched the switch on the Poké Ball and went back inside.
"...."
Mewtwo's disobedience made Ash feel very awkward for a moment.
"Let me handle this. Blastoise, go attract Lugia."
Gary sent his Blastoise to pull aggro.
Then he released Scizor and directly Mega Evolved it.
His Blastoise did not disappoint, landing two extremely humiliating Hydro Pumps, firmly drawing Lugia's aggro.
Watching Lugia constantly approaching, Ash quickly had Gardevoir protect Misty and the others, teleporting them from the yacht back to the shore.
"Gary, I'll give you a chance. I'll let you battle Lugia first."
Even if Mewtwo was unwilling to act, Ash was still confident in taking down Lugia, but before that, he wanted to see how far Gary could go.
"Then I won't be polite! Scizor, Night Slash! Blastoise, use Ice Beam!"
Gary also had some research on Lugia's attributes, so he immediately planned to use moves that were type-effective against Lugia.
Scizor's Night Slash was an inherited move, and its power was decent. Its pincers struck Lugia's chest hard, and Blastoise in the sea also hit Lugia with Ice Beam.
At the port, when those Wild Trainers saw someone attacking Lugia, they also commanded their Pokémon to join the battle, and suddenly the port was in chaos. Officer Jenny, who was maintaining order, was helpless and could only try her best to persuade them to leave.
Some people, led by Team Aqua, had already quietly driven small boats towards Lugia.
Lugia, attacked by Gary's Pokémon, merely flapped its wings gently, and a strong gust of wind stirred up a huge wave, overturning many small boats that were about to approach, and at the same time blowing away many Pokémon's moves.
As for Ash's yacht, it was protected by Aura and was unharmed. Ash himself had the Super True Human physique and various buffs, so the strong wind stirred up by Lugia couldn't even budge him.
"Pikachu, Thunderbolt!" Ash commanded Pikachu.
"Pika~~~"
Pikachu activated its passive ability, unleashing an astonishing bolt of lightning.
Lugia, enveloped by the lightning, was paralyzed for a moment.
Seeing Lugia expose a weakness, many Gym Advanced Trainers hidden by the port also released their main Pokémon, such as Bisharp, Garchomp, Corviknight, Dragonite, and so on. Their strength was generally at the Gym Advanced to Elite level.
But before their attacks could arrive, Lugia once again stirred up a strong gust of wind, blowing away various Pokémon and moves.
Even many people's Poké Balls were blown away and smashed.
Misty looked at the increasingly frenzied Wild Trainers on the shore and couldn't help but sigh, "Oh, these people really don't know their place."
"Actually, their reaction is normal. Lugia is a legendary Pokémon after all."
Brock could understand the Trainers' behavior, but understanding was one thing; he didn't approve of their actions.
Misty turned to Gardevoir, who was standing beside them, and said, "Gardevoir, you go back and help Ash. We're on the shore here, we can take care of ourselves."
"Gardevoir~"
Gardevoir nodded understandingly, then teleported back onto the ship.
Seeing Gardevoir return, Ash asked Gary, "Gary, do you want to continue?"
"Forget it, this Lugia is too strong. My Blastoise and Scizor don't have an advantage."
After launching a few rounds of attacks, Gary had completely given up.
Damn it, his few rounds of output didn't even cause as much damage as Pikachu's single lightning bolt. What's the point of fighting for this?
