"What do you mean by benefactor or not? Just stop standing there... mmmmmm!!"
Jessie also wanted to turn into a crazy woman and make a lot of noise.
As a result, the next second, he was held down by Meowth and James.
Huh? Jessie was held down by these two guys?
Ash looked at this counterintuitive scene with some surprise.
It's been such a long time since I last saw these three guys. It seems that they have all changed and improved a lot~~~
"Please don't mind her~"
James had a flattering smile on his face, "You can continue with your previous topic first."
"That's right~ meow!'
Meowth also held Jessie down with his paws as much as possible, and smiled cutely:
"In this situation, is there any other way out?"
Its other paw was also rubbing.
James was also looking forward to it, expecting Ash to give them a clear answer again.
Even Jessie, who was struggling there, couldn't help but become motionless.
The three of them were silent and all looked at Ash.
Well, it was mainly because Ash Coaching and his team were heading towards scientific research, which really allowed them to reap a lot of benefits in the beginning.
This also made the trio feel that this path was correct, but they themselves had narrowed the path...
"This kid seems to have a plan. Once he gives us some suggestions, we can give it a try."
"Yeah, we must not fail again this time. We must not let the boss down again. We must impress him."
"Anyway, we have nothing to lose now. The worst that can happen is that we will just be out there carrying out missions like we are now, just like before..."
The trio exchanged glances, and their meanings were clearly conveyed to each other.
"Others..."
Ash raised his tone slightly, causing the trio to continue to crane their necks.
"I think the scientific research path you started with is the most suitable for you."
Trio: "..."
Isn't it just a waste of time for you to say this?!
Jessie started struggling again.
"19,0..."
There is still but~
"Although you narrowed the road before, this does not prevent you from walking back on the road."
Ash pointed at a huge robot that was still absorbing 02 tree sap with full efficiency (almost as efficient as several other robots that were absorbing sap).
"You have great talent and ability in this area, and you also have strong hands-on ability..."
Ash smiled and said, "The only problem is the direction of your scientific research."
"In this regard, I can have a good chat with you~~~"
In order to create the Pinsir robot that collects sap, the trio entered the machine.
They worked harder than usual, even though they spent their little remaining money and even got into a little debt.
But, according to their thinking...
"You guys are thinking that once you commercialize the sap and make a fortune, you'll be able to become millionaires, right?"
After listening to the thoughts of the three members of Team Rocket, Ash looked at them with a rather helpless look.
"You guys are taking it for granted."
"If nothing else, the Pinsir Forest was desolate and withered, and yet you guys came up with so much sap to sell."
"It would be strange if Officer Jenny didn't investigate you and just arrested you!"
Team Rocket Trio:""
They had totally failed to consider that this might happen.
"What's more, you are now forcibly Absorbing the sap, driving Pinsir away and making the entire forest a mess.
"In the end, you will change nature without authorization and destroy the entire ecology of nature. The trees will no longer exist, and the sap will no longer exist. You are just making a one-time deal."
"There is simply no follow-up, sustainable development and economic balance."
Team Rocket Trio: "..."
My scalp is so itchy, it feels like it's going to grow a brain!!
They had never heard of these terms before, but now they feel that they are quite high-sounding.
And it seems that what they did was not worthy of being on the stage, and it was also very wrong...
"Please give us coaching again~ meow!!"
Meowth, the Pokémon, was the first to frown and immediately asked.
"Yes, we still want to listen to your teachings!!"
James hurried to follow.
And while the two guys were talking, they were pressing Jessie's head down at the same time.
"Please!!!"
Misty:"
Xiao Gang:
Pikachu: "Pika?!"
The performance of the trio before them was truly incredible to them.
It feels like we haven't seen each other for such a long time, it's like we have become three different people.
Ash can totally understand this.
These three guys probably relied on the initial technology to develop the product, plus Giovanni's kindness to them.
They really enjoyed a lot of benefits and enjoyed a relaxing life working in offices and R&D rooms.
It is really pleasant to stay in the house and work comfortably every day without being exposed to wind and rain.
But now, it was like a wild Meowth, abandoned by someone on the roadside.
As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
The trio had a thorough understanding of what it was like to fall from heaven back to hell.
They really want to improve, because they want to go back to the old days!!
"Since you have requested so sincerely..."
Ash clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Then I will be merciful and give you some pointers."
"Very good!!"
The trio cheered immediately, and then Meowth took out the remote control.
Pinsir-kun No.1 who was collecting sap from the tree was summoned directly down.
"This is Pinsir-kun No. 1, a sap-collecting robot. It has strong combat capabilities."
Meowth proudly introduced his research and development results.
"The two pairs of Pinsir on its head can definitely block even the Pokémon's special moves.
"Pinsir-kun No. 1 is made of a special alloy, so its defense is not as strong as Normal's.
"And it has a secret weapon, which is that it can use Thunder Shock to charge ~ meow."
"Not only can it be charged with the Pokémon's Thunder Shock special move, it can also release the charged power to attack..."
Ash listened to Meowth's detailed description and his eyelids twitched.
"What do you think this robot is for?"
He returned to his original question.
"Of course it's a robot for collecting tree sap~ meow?"
Meowth is a bit confusing, even though it has explained itself very clearly.
"You mean, a robot that stands up, is huge, has a distinct offensive weapon on its head, has a body made of a special alloy with super high defense, and can absorb Pokémon's electricity to charge and launch a discharge attack...?"
Ash repeated all the points Meowth had said.
"You're telling me, this is just a robot for collecting sap?!!"
Even Xiaogang and Misty, who originally thought it was nothing, were shocked after Ash finished speaking word for word.
His expression couldn't help but become strange.
"Is there any problem with this, meow?"
Meowth seemed to have sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
Being good at observing people's expressions, it couldn't help but ask cautiously after seeing Xiaogang and Misty's changing faces.
"Did I do something wrong?"
"No, you did a great job~~~"
Ash shook his head. "It was just a little too good."
Ash only felt two words from this Pinsir-kun No. 1 robot:
The first sentence is, why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken?
The second sentence is really a waste of talent.
"A robot like this can't even be used to collect sap..."
Even the forest ranger Woodruff, who didn't know what happened but heard roughly what happened, sighed:
"Even if we use it to survey mineral veins underground, explore unmanned dangerous environments, or even go deep into the sea, there is no problem!"
"Anyway, if the price is right, I can't help but want to buy one to equip my work..."
This is something Woodruff sincerely believes.
Ash then added: "Even for combat, it is more than enough."
Well, he remembered that this robot named Pinsir-kun No. 1 might even be as powerful as the Heracross he had captured.
"So, I don't think you need to do anything else for now."
"Just handing over a Pinsir bug robot like this will be enough to prove your worth."
Ash was telling the truth. If Giovanni and his men had good vision, they would be able to see the value of these ten Song Dashenjun and ten robots at a glance.
Then, you will know how to use it reasonably.
Of course Ash didn't forget to ask the most important question:
"How much did you spend on developing this Pinsir bug robot?"
"The R&D expenses? Not much...
Meowth told Ash a number truthfully.
After all, they were kicked out of the Rockets' base, which was basically equivalent to leaving the house with nothing, and they didn't have much money.
This time, in order to develop this robot, they exhausted all their savings and even incurred some foreign debts.
But when Ash heard this number, he couldn't help but sigh again:
"You are really a group of gods~~~"
At this price, making a Pinsir worm robot is almost the same as giving it away for free.
How reckless must they have been before that the Rockets couldn't stand them anymore and kicked them out?
He couldn't even show his most basic value, and was kicked to this Johto Region Region...
What kind of god is this person who can do such a thing?!!
Oh, it's the Rockets trio, that's okay.
In short, for now, Ash doesn't need to give these guys any coaching.
Let them take this Pinsir No. 1 and report it to Giovanni, and give the quotation at the same time.
Well, Ash felt that even if this group of people doubled the price they quoted, it would be a great achievement for Giovanni.
The research and development price they gave is totally incomparable to the value created by this Pinsir worm robot!!
"Really, is that all that's needed..."
After listening to Ash's offer, James became a little uncertain.
this
Isn't it a bit too simple~ meow?"
Meowth couldn't help but smack his lips in disbelief.
As for Jessie, she just kept shaking her head, as if she thought it was impossible.
"Is it okay? Is it okay? Just give it a try, isn't it?"
Ash said lightly, "I haven't lied to you before anyway. What good would it do me to lie to you?"
"Besides, you are the ones who came to me for coaching. Believe it or not, it's up to you~~~~"
Team Rocket Trio:
The three of them stared at each other, then fell silent.
Until a moment later~~~
"otherwise......"
James whispered: "Let's try again?"
"There's nothing to lose anyway..."
"It's just another scolding from the boss~ meow!!"
Meowth was also angry, "It's nothing, we've been scolded countless times~ meow!"
"Since this little brat...the Trainer with Pikachu said so, I think I can definitely give it a try!!"
Meowth finally made up his mind.
"???"
Jessie, who was speechless there, saw her two companions saying the same thing.
I couldn't help but stare at them with my eyes wide open.
Just when the Rockets trio were preparing to retreat.
Xiao Gang couldn't help but ask a final question: "Do you really not realize the value of this Pinsir bug robot?"
...
Meowth and James both looked confused.
Well, Meowth is a Pokémon, so it's normal that he doesn't realize the importance of this machine to humans.
As for James, he was from an aristocratic family and had lived a life of luxury.
The most his parents asked of him was to learn the etiquette of the nobility and to heal himself.
It is also impossible to figure out what to do with this kind of machinery and equipment that has such strategic value.
No wonder they were working on a great opening in Rocket Hideout, but ended up like this step by step~
"Stop!!"
Seeing Meowth and the others were about to leave, Ash immediately stopped them.
"? Anything else?"
"You can take the Pinsir bug robot with you, but the sap you take from this big tree..."
Ash stared at the storage tanks filled with sap. "We have to return them."
"Why?!"
Jessie couldn't bear it any longer, and broke free from Meowth and James, shouting:
"This is the tree dog that we finally got!!"
"This is ours, why should we give it to you...
Why?
This is a good question.
"Eehee~?!"
Just look at the Gengar with scarlet eyes slowly emerging from the shadows at Ash's feet, staring at them intently.
"Pika~Pika..."
And standing next to Ash is Pikachu, a yellow electric mouse with a fierce look in its eyes that is constantly charging.
"Say it again~"
Ash said calmly, "The sap you take is not for me, but for this forest."
"If you have any objections..."
He smiled and said, "You can have a good talk with me."
Jessie: "
She looked at the Pikachu that was staring at her eagerly, and the Gengar that was licking his tongue and laughing weirdly...
I couldn't help but fall into silence again.
Ultimately, the Rocket trio kept the few cans of sap they had taken.
He just took the Pinsir No. 1 robot insect and left quickly.
It seemed that they really wanted to verify whether the advice Ash gave them was indeed correct.
After the Rockets left~
Sasha.
Pinsirs began to emerge from the jungle one after another.
Now that the guys who invaded their territory are gone, they come back again.
"So, the place where you live is the most comfortable."
"In this way, these Pinsirs will no longer need to go to the Heracross forest."
The sap in the jar was returned to Pinsir, and the guys continued to stay here obediently.
In this way, the ecological balance of the forest can be restored quickly.
And the Rockets are about to get another proof of their worth.
Ash also captured such a good Heracross.
It can be said that everyone is happy and everyone has gained something.
This is really cause for celebration and a happy ending.
"Bye now."
Finally, with the thanks and farewell from guard Woodruff, Ash and his team continued to head towards their next destination.
