Pokémon: The Journey Begins with a Cowherd

Chapter 77 Shattering the Waves to Evolve, Charmeleon Arrives!

"Again! Ironclad Rhino, keep using Rock Smash!"

Seeing this, Qingyuan once again commanded the armored rhinoceros to use Rock Blast on the sea surface.

"Huh!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, the armored rhinoceros roared and immediately conjured five rocks, which it then threw towards the sea.

Five huge rocks crashed down, instantly creating a wave three or four meters high on the sea surface.

"Charmander, use Spark to shatter the waves!"

Looking at the huge waves in front of him, Qingyuan waved his hand and commanded the little fire dragon to use Spark again.

"Groo-wa!"

Looking at the huge waves in front of him, the little dragon roared, and the flames in its mouth continued to compress and gather.

Eventually, the sparks formed a pillar of fire that shot towards the oncoming wave.

"boom!"

The thick pillar of fire punched a huge hole in the wave, which was more than three meters high.

"Great! Charmander, we've succeeded!"

Watching the pillar of fire spewing from the little fire dragon's mouth.

Qingyuan couldn't help but shout loudly at the little fire dragon.

He originally had Charmander compress sparks to attack, just to see if Charmander could master Flamethrower as a result.

However, perhaps due to insufficient strength, Charmander only mastered the Spark Machine Gun before reaching a bottleneck.

Qingyuan was originally content, after all, it was just a spark machine gun, as long as it was more powerful than a spark machine gun.

Unexpectedly, under the pressure of the huge waves, Charmander's potential was unleashed, and its Spark Gun successfully transformed into a flame-breathing machine gun.

This excited Qingyuan, who had originally given up.

Who would have thought that the little dragon would eventually become...

As expected, it is the best Charmander among the Pokémon at the Pewter City Pokémon Center.

Charmander has the potential to be a king!

"Groo-wa!"

Seeing that he had succeeded, the little dragon was just about to turn around and share his joy with Qingyuan.

Suddenly, the little dragon's entire body shone with a dazzling white light.

"Little Fire Dragon!"

Seeing this, Qingyuan hurriedly ran to the little fire dragon's side and called out to it with some concern.

The little fire dragon's body kept changing and growing taller in the white light.

"roar~"

Finally, with a roar, a fire dinosaur with crimson skin and a horn-like protrusion on its head appeared in Qingyuan's sight.

Charmeleon raised its arms to look at its hands, which had grown sharp claws, and then stretched its greatly transformed legs.

Then it looked at Qingyuan, who was standing in front of it with a look of surprise and joy.

"Roar~ (I've evolved!)"

The fire dragon roared and lunged into Qingyuan's arms with its arms outstretched.

"Hahaha!"

Qingyuan smiled and hugged the fire dinosaur into his arms.

"Congratulations, Charmeleon, you've evolved!"

Looking at the Charmander clinging tightly to him, Qingyuan smiled and spoke.

When Charmander evolved, he was worried that Charmeleon might change its nature after evolving, just like Ash's Charmeleon.

But now, the little dragon's actions immediately put Qingyuan's mind at ease.

Charmander was an obedient child, so even after evolving into Charmeleon, it remained just as obedient.

"Hehe! (Congratulations, little brother!)"

Seeing this, Scorpion, who was training nearby, glided over to Qingyuan's side and gave his blessing to the Charizard.

"Hooray! (Congratulations!)"

The armored rhinoceros standing next to Qingyuan congratulated the fire dinosaur upon seeing Scorpion.

Then I remembered that it seems that the evolution of a partner is something to celebrate.

Moreover, Charmander's lively personality made it a good friend, so Rhinoceros followed up on Scorpion's words and offered its congratulations to Charmeleon.

"Sha! (Congratulations, little one!)"

Upon noticing the situation, the Scyther quickly flew towards it.

However, due to the weight it was carrying, it was relatively slow, which is why it became the third companion to come and offer its blessings.

"Meow~ (Congratulations on your evolution!)"

The cat boss gracefully stepped over the pebbles and jumped to Qingyuan's side to give the fire dinosaur a blessing.

"Yay~ thud~ (Congratulations on evolving into Charmander!)"

Slowpoke used its psychic powers to fly to Qingyuan's side and offer its congratulations to Charmander.

It sat on the beach for a long time, pondering, and finally came over in person to give the Charizard its blessing.

After all, Charmander was the first friend it made in the team, and it had to come in person to evolve its best friend.

"Hoo! (Thank you!)"

Charmeleon emerged from Qingyuan's embrace and loudly thanked Scorpion and the others.

It then unleashed a flamethrower into the sky to express its joy.

As orange-red flames exploded in the sky.

The scorpions cheered even more excitedly.

After a long while, when Scorpion and the others had finished cheering, Qingyuan finally spoke with a smile.

"That's all for today's training. I'm going to buy some materials. We'll have a barbecue for lunch today to celebrate Charizard's successful evolution!"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Scorpion and the others cheered once again.

It's great that Charmander evolves! Not only is today's training over, but I can also have a delicious lunch.

Thinking of this, Scorpion and the others couldn't help but toss Charmeleon high into the air and catch it steadily.

Qingyuan watched this scene with a smile on his face.

Once Scorpion and the others had finished playing, Qingyuan put them back into their Poké Balls.

Looking at the Charmeleon's Poké Ball in his hand, Qingyuan took out a Pokédex from his pocket with his right hand.

Evolution is both an opportunity for Pokémon to become stronger and a good time for them to learn new skills.

I wonder if Charmeleon learned any new skills during this evolution.

With anticipation in his heart, Qingyuan slowly placed the Poké Ball into the slot of the Pokédex.

Charmeleon had a horn-like protrusion on its head, and its mouth became pointed, somewhat resembling a bird's beak. Its limbs and tail were relatively long, with flames still burning at the tip of its tail. Charmeleon was extremely aggressive; its fiery temperament caused it to constantly seek out opponents and never remain still. It would first sweep its tail to knock down its opponent, then tear it to pieces with its sharp claws.

With a burst of electronic music, Charmeleon's information was successfully added to the Pokédex.

However, upon hearing the description of Charmeleon in the Pokédex, a strange expression flashed across Qingyuan's face.

You should know that Charmeleon didn't show the slightest sign of ferocity just now.

Even Charmeleon's behavior and temperament are similar to when it was a baby Charmeleon.

"Am I really going to turn a tyrannical dragon into a fire-breathing little lizard?"

Looking at the descriptions in the Pokédex, Qingyuan thought to himself.

This cuddly Charmeleon looks exactly like the one described in the Pokédex, capable of tearing its opponents to shreds with its sharp claws!

"I want a dragon, not a hugging dragon!"

"Looks like I'll have to find some time to give Charmeleon a proper lesson in being a dragon!"

As Qingyuan pondered this, he looked down at the display screen of the encyclopedia.
