Chapter 361: May Captures Swablu

After a friendly "negotiation," Ash spent a little money, causing the Team Rocket Trio to make a very "heartfelt" choice.

The Team Rocket Trio’s reputation as masters of assist was well-deserved; with their help, Swablu learned to fly again.

At this moment, Morita brought good news to Ash and his group: "Everyone, I have found the location of the Swablu flock. It is at a nearby Lake. Today is the last chance; if we miss it, we will have to wait until next year for the Swablu to migrate through here again."

May held Swablu and said excitedly: "That’s great, Swablu! You are about to meet your family!"

However, the reluctance in her eyes betrayed the fact that she did not want Swablu to leave.

Swablu looked toward the Lake, then turned its head to look at May, also showing a sense of reluctance.

In order to save time, Morita chose to drive the group to the Lake where the Swablu flock was located.

Without the interference of the Team Rocket Trio, the group arrived at their destination smoothly.

As soon as the group got out of the car, two Altaria flew over, leading several Swablu.

The Swablu in May’s arms, after seeing the Altaria, flapped its wings and flew up.

After seeing Swablu return to the flock, the Altaria intended to continue their migration journey.

May suppressed the reluctance in her heart and waved goodbye: "Swablu... take good care of yourself!"

"Gelogelo~~"

Swablu felt May’s mood and also showed strong reluctance. It looked at its own flock, then turned back to look at May; for a moment, it didn’t know how to choose.

Seeing Swablu hesitating, May choked up and said: "Alright, Swablu, your family is waiting for you!"

"Gelo~"

Hearing this, Swablu seemed to have made a decision. It flew in front of the Altaria and chirped "gelogelo" for a while. The Altaria turned its head and took a deep look at May, then nodded with reluctance, and subsequently flew away toward the distance with the rest of the flock.

Having obtained its family’s permission, Swablu flew back into May’s arms.

Looking at the Swablu in her arms, May was stunned and asked: "Swablu, have you really decided to travel with us?"

"Gelo!"

Swablu nodded seriously.

May took out an empty Poké Ball and intended to capture it.

Ash hurriedly reminded her: "Wait a second, May. You already have six Pokémon now; if you capture another, you will reach the limit.

It would be better if you decide which one to send back to the Petalburg Gym first, and then use the Poké Ball to capture Swablu."

"Oh, right!"

May realized a bit late that she had forgotten that everyone can only carry at most 6 Pokémon.

However, choosing one to send home was quite difficult for her. After some thought, she sent Lairon back, and then took out the Poké Ball to capture Swablu.

The reason for sending Lairon back was simple: its diet was a bit unusual, as it needed to eat ore to accumulate energy.

After May captured Swablu, Ash and his group set off on their journey again.

After setting off again, the group walked for two days and arrived at a small town.

They had a picnic in the park. Brock took out his Pokémon Navigator, looked at it, and said excitedly:

"Good news, it seems we are not far from Petalburg City!"

"That’s what you say, but if we have bad luck and get lost again, then it’s not certain!"

Thinking about getting lost from time to time, May couldn’t get excited even if she wanted to.

"May, relax. Petalburg City isn’t going anywhere," Ash said very calmly.

It was just that Hoenn’s "Can’t Fly" and "Fat Head Fish" liked to sleep, and there were no other active Legendary Pokémon in the region. Otherwise, Ash felt that if they got lost, they would eventually run into these two guys.

"But I really miss my mom’s cooking, I don’t want to get lost at all!"

After May finished sighing, she was just about to pick up her sandwich to eat when a poop-green little thing with a hair-like ahoge on its head, completely unafraid of strangers, ate the three people’s lunch clean.

"This is..."

"Gulpin!"

Ash and Brock were a bit surprised to see this Pokémon.

[Pokémon: Gulpin] [Type: Poison] [Gender: Male] [Level: Elite Advanced] [Ability: Gluttony (Normally only eats berries when HP is very low; will eat them when HP is at half)] [Potential: Gym] [Moves: Sludge Bomb, Stockpile, Spit Up...]

Gulpin is also one of the famous big eaters among Pokémon.

Its entire body is a stomach, and its Gastro Acid can digest anything.

"It looks quite cute!" May exclaimed.

"It is cute, but it’s also a big eater; it can eat anything," Ash reminded her.

Suddenly, a hurried alarm sounded.

"An emergency alert is now being issued. Please proceed to a safe location for evacuation immediately!"

Nurse Nurse Joy’s voice came from the broadcast.

Less than ten minutes after the alarm sounded, Ash and the others saw that the streets were empty.

"The citizens here evacuated so quickly; in less than ten minutes, there isn’t a single person left on the street!" May said.

"By the way, what exactly is happening?" Brock asked, confused.

Ash confusedly turned his Aura to the maximum.

Soon he had an answer: "Hmm... it should be related to Gulpin. I sense no fewer than one hundred Gulpin in this city."

May exclaimed in surprise: "Oh my god, so many Gulpin! If we go by the speed at which they digest food, wouldn’t this city’s food supply be eaten up by them very quickly?"

"Ah!"

The next second, a scream rang out.

"Oh, this voice must be a beautiful lady in danger!"

After determining that the person was female, Brock ran toward the direction the scream came from with the speed of a 100-meter sprint: "Beautiful lady, I am coming right away..."

"Sigh!"

Ash and May were speechless.

However, when they arrived at the scene, they saw that Brock, who had gone ahead, had already failed. He was pinned under a dozen or twenty Gulpin, while the girl who called for help was standing at the door, at a loss and anxious.

Those Gulpin were pinning Brock down while eating the bread inside the shop; clearly, this shop was a bakery.

"Honestly, Eevee, Pikachu, you go and attract the Gulpin’s attention. Jirachi, take the opportunity to use Teleport to save Brock," Ash commanded.

Eevee and Pikachu jumped up and beat up those Gulpin, and seeing this, Jirachi immediately flew over and teleported Brock to the door.

Just as Ash intended to have Pikachu use Thunderbolt to end the battle, he suddenly sensed a large number of Gulpin approaching in the building’s ventilation ducts, so he shouted: "Pikachu, Eevee, Jirachi, come out first! More Gulpin are coming!"

Hearing this, Pikachu and the others stopped fighting and quickly ran out the door.

As soon as they got out the door, a pile of Gulpin immediately fell from the ventilation duct.

After these Gulpin devoured all the bread in the bakery, they quickly evacuated the scene.

As soon as the Gulpin left, a whistle sounded.

Subsequently, an Officer Jenny with a Tangela ran over from a distance.

"Officer Jenny..."

"Whoosh!"

Before Brock could even get close, Jirachi activated its Psychic powers again, teleporting Brock to hang from the bakery’s ventilation duct.

"That annoying Teleport..." Brock muttered.
