Omanyte and Omastar were the first to attack. Heavy water orbs condensed in their mouths, and several Water Pulse attacks were released directly toward Ash and the others.
"Electabuzz, use Protect!" Gary saw this and quickly shouted. Electabuzz immediately rushed forward, then opened its hands to create a green protective barrier.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Omanyte and Omastar's Water Pulse attacks blasted forward and struck the protective barrier, causing tremendous explosions instantly. A large amount of water scattered from the explosions, temporarily blocking the first wave of attacks.
At this time, Kabuto also began their assault, with a large swarm of them rushing forward like locusts.
"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" Ash spoke quickly when he saw this. Pikachu rushed out and released Thunderbolt, sending a lightning bolt flashing across the battlefield.
The attack swept across the path of the Kabuto, causing the ground to explode instantly. The Kabuto rushing forward were immediately blown away by the explosion.
SLASH!
At this moment, several Kabutops rushed toward Pikachu and Electabuzz. The light on their twin scythes gleamed as they struck directly at Pikachu and Electabuzz.
"Fraxure, use Dragon Rage!" Upon seeing this, Ash immediately threw a Poke Ball.
Fraxure landed on the ground and launched an attack immediately, condensing energy. The dark blue light roared like a giant dragon, sweeping from the front and continuously striking the Kabutops.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Explosions sounded continuously as several Kabutops were blown away by the force of the blasts and sent flying backward. However, they were quickly caught by the Kabuto rushing up behind them, and a large number of Kabuto continued to pour out.
"We're coming up! Hurry up, you too!" At this moment, a voice came from above. Gary's female companions had all escaped safely.
Scyther and the others had already flown down one after another, landing relatively quickly and soon reaching everyone's side. Green shouted quickly.
"You guys go first! Green, let Scyther take you!" Ash quickly said to the others after hearing the call.
Although Ivysaur could carry two at a time, it couldn't fly on its own and would be overwhelmed by the group of Kabuto. If Ivysaur was suddenly attacked while climbing, it would be in serious trouble.
"Okay!" Green nodded after hearing this and recalled Ivysaur.
Soon Geodude grabbed Brock, Pidgeotto grabbed Misty, Gary had his own Fearow, Scyther took Green, and everyone also looked toward Ash.
"Ash, what are you going to do?" Misty quickly asked worriedly, mainly because she was concerned that Ash would do something reckless again.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything reckless. Pikachu, use Pika Papow! Fraxure, use Dragon Rage!" Ash responded, then pointed forward and spoke again.
PIKA!
ROAR!
Pikachu and Fraxure launched a joint offensive. Pika Papow and Dragon Rage attacked in a wide range, and many Kabuto were swallowed up by the explosions.
At the same time, smoke filled the surroundings. Ash took the opportunity to retreat while everyone else recalled their Pokemon and took off.
Ash also took out a Poke Ball and recalled Fraxure, then moved to the opening above and took out another Poke Ball.
"Charizard, come out!"
Throwing the Poke Ball, with a flash of light, Charizard's figure appeared on the ruins beneath the opening and let out a mighty roar.
Looking at the surrounding situation, Charizard's eyes narrowed slightly without any fear. There was a natural arrogance and contempt in its gaze.
In fact, although Charizard didn't ignore Ash's orders like in some stories, its proud character hadn't changed much.
Charizard had always looked down upon weak opponents in the early stages. When it had met strong Pokemon before, it had shown interest in competing with them.
The same had happened at various competitions. When facing Pokemon that were clearly weaker, after easily defeating a few of them, Charizard would lose interest completely.
Although its bond with Ash was stronger now and it obeyed Ash's commands, this arrogance still existed.
This pride had been tempered through various battles and training. Although it could be said that Charizard had matured, Ash still appreciated that Charizard retained this confident spirit.
"Charizard, let's get out of here!"
Ash wasted no time and jumped onto Charizard's back while giving the command.
ROAR!
After hearing the order, Charizard immediately flapped its wings and rose into the air, flying toward the exit above. Misty and Brock were surprised to see this scene.
"Charizard! Has Charmeleon evolved?" Misty exclaimed.
The reason why the two were surprised when they looked at Charizard was natural, since they hadn't seen it before. Because they had been separated during this period, they didn't know that Charmeleon had evolved.
"Yeah! It evolved when Ash was at the Cinnabar Gym!" Green, who was nearby, looked at the surprised expressions of the two and explained.
In fact, there was no need for Green to explain. They knew it must have evolved during the period of separation. It was just because they had been worried about not having enough Pokemon earlier, but now they felt relieved when they saw Charizard.
Flying toward the sky, Charizard was very fast and was gradually catching up with everyone. All the fossil Pokemon below hadn't yet recovered from the explosion and were about to lose sight of their prey.
Suddenly, Ash noticed something abnormal, and Charizard seemed to have sensed something strange as well. Its eyes flashed with alertness, and a strange roar came from the cave below.
WHOOSH!
BOOM!
"Be careful!" Hearing the noise, Ash quickly shouted to the people above him.
Everyone panicked when they heard Ash's warning. They saw a golden light suddenly shooting from the side. Everyone was in panic and had no way to completely avoid it. They could only rely on their Pokemon to move and dodge.
With Ash's warning, the Pokemon moved very quickly and managed to dodge the attack, but it was incredibly fast, and while everyone else was fine, it was more difficult for Pidgeotto carrying Misty.
Pidgeotto was relatively small, so it carried Misty by gripping her shoulders. When it quickly tried to avoid the attack, Misty's body swayed, making her feel heavier. Pidgeotto didn't dare to grip too hard, and in that moment, it lost its hold and immediately released its claws.
