Chapter 1116 Robbing Kecleon!
2024-05-15 Author: Samsung Charmander (Author Name)
"Is that a special Kecleon?"
Ash was greatly curious. He had traveled to so many places, but this was the first time he had ever encountered such a scene.
"Wawu~!" "Wawu~!"
The two differently colored Kecleon stood smiling on a Silk Scarf, rubbing their small hands together as if they were expecting something.
Seeing that the two of them hadn't moved for a while, they pointed their fingers at the various rare items around them.
"Oh, oh, do they want us to pick out some items?! What kind Pokémon!"
Ash understood. He nodded kindly back at the two Kecleon and was the first to step onto the Silk Scarf.
This action indeed made the two Kecleon even more excited.
"Are they giving them away for free? I can hardly believe it..."
Although Sawyer wore a look of confusion, since Ash had already gone up, he naturally hurried to follow.
He tried picking up one of the yellow seeds. This item should be a Miracle Seed; if a Treecko holds it, it can increase the power of its Grass-type abilities.
Sawyer even tried waving the Miracle Seed in front of the two Kecleon.
"Wawu~!"
Seeing the Kecleon nod happily, Sawyer finally set his mind at ease.
It seems we've really met some kind Pokémon...
Ash, at the side, didn't hold back either. He started to look around the Silk Scarf to see if there were any familiar-looking items.
"Pika..."
However, the Pikachu on his shoulder kept pulling at his collar, seemingly trying to say something with quite a bit of urgency.
"What's wrong, Pikachu? Are you hungry again?"
Seeing a few large Sitrus Berries placed to the side, Ash subconsciously grabbed one and stuffed it into Pikachu's mouth, cramming it full.
He subconsciously glanced at the two Kecleon.
"Wawu~!"
However, seeing their happy and cheerful appearance, Ash also breathed a sigh of relief.
Is this a gift from the natural world?
Indeed, Blue was the problem. As soon as they separated, he could feel the gifts of nature!
Soon, the two of them had each selected a few items.
Sawyer picked out a Muscle Band for his Bagon and a Quick Claw for his Slakoth.
As for Ash, he grabbed combat items like a Life Orb and a Toxic Orb.
"Thank you, Kecleon!"
"Thanks so much!"
The two of them then held the items in their hands, stepped off the Silk Scarf, and made to leave.
The two differently colored Kecleon jumped nimbly and suddenly landed in front of the two of them.
"Wawu~!" "Wawu~!"
They called out kindly, extending their small claws toward the two.
"Oh, oh, is it for a handshake before we part?!"
"You guys are the best!"
Ash and Sawyer quickly stuffed the items into their pockets and shook the Kecleons' claws.
Kecleon: ?
Their expressions as they looked at Ash and Sawyer gradually began to change.
Withdrawing their paws, the green Kecleon suddenly took out a small notebook and quickly wrote something on it.
Then, it abruptly tore out the page and handed it to them.
"What is this...?"
Looking at the slip of paper filled with a jumble of numbers, Ash was baffled but felt it was somehow formidable.
"Uh, I think this is a receipt or an invoice?"
Sawyer said uncertainly.
And the expressions on the two Kecleon in front of them had gradually changed from cheerful to impatient.
"Wawu, wawu!"
It poked the receipt, holding its other hand open towards the two of them.
*Buying things without paying... These two humans, they can't be trying to get this for free, can they?*
*Trying to skip out on the bill?!*
"Ah... so we were supposed to pay?"
The two of them finally realized, their expressions changing at last.
"Pika."
Pikachu threw up its paws, as if to say it had been trying to warn them all along.
Both of them were upstanding trainers who got by on their righteousness wherever they went, plus the subsidies for trainers from the Pokémon League's Pokémon Centers.
The money they had between them could probably buy a few Poké Balls.
"Then we don't want them..."
"Right, right, we'll return them!"
Realizing this, Ash and Sawyer quickly took out the items they had taken earlier.
"Wawu!!"
However, the special purple Kecleon had, at some unknown point, taken out a small sign with clear human writing on it.
"'Kecleon Brothers' Shop~! All items sold here are non-refundable, no credit, and no exchanges!'"
The three "no's" at the end completely cut off their escape route.
"Should we... make a run for it?"
Looking at the two menacingly glaring Kecleon, Sawyer whispered tentatively.
Ash: ...
However, the expressions of the two Kecleon in front of them had already shifted from impatience to rage.
For them, when they encounter a trainer who can't pay but still takes the merchandise, that behavior...
...is robbery!
And as for a robber...
"Wawu!!"
The green Kecleon's aura changed abruptly. Its small hands tensed, revealing sharp claws, radiating extreme aggression.
"Wawu!!"
Meanwhile, the purple Kecleon jumped behind the two of them, completely blocking their other path.
"Uh..."
"What do we do?"
This menacing aura sent a shiver down both Ash's and Sawyer's spines.
This is absurd! We just came out for a casual stroll and ended up being treated like robbers by wild Pokémon!?
Damn it! It was clearly these two Kecleon who played a trick. They obviously had an advertisement board with the notice, but they deliberately kept it on their backs to hide the information.
"Then we have no choice but to battle!! I choose you, Treecko!!"
Seeing that this couldn't be resolved peacefully, Sawyer's gaze sharpened, and he directly sent out his starter Pokémon.
It was the perfect chance to test what Ash had said earlier about "bond"...
"Treecko, use Bullet Seed!!"
Treecko opened its mouth, and a dense volley of seeds shrouded in green light shot out.
Rat-a-tat-tat...!
However, the Kecleon didn't even try to dodge or defend, letting the Bullet Seed explode against its body.
"Wawu!!"
As the smoke and dust cleared, it was completely unharmed.
"How is that possible?!"
Sawyer's face filled with shock. Was the gap in power this big? He couldn't even break through its defense?!
And now the green Kecleon was about to attack. To them, a robber was an absolute enemy...
...to be killed!
*Fwoosh!!*
It flicked its mouth, and a long, thin tongue instantly extended several meters.
It whipped sharply against Treecko like a long whip, slamming it heavily into a tree trunk.
Treecko was unable to battle on the spot!
"Such a formidable Kecleon?!"
Ash was shocked. This level of strength was rare among wild Pokémon.
*Fwoosh!!*
However, the next whip from its tongue was already striking again!
"Pikachu, block it with Iron Tail!!"
Ash quickly commanded.
Pikachu landed nimbly on the ground, raising its silver iron tail.
*Thwap-thwap-thwap...!*
The thin tongue immediately wrapped around the iron tail several times.
"Pika!!"
Seeing this, Pikachu spun its body fiercely, about to drag the Kecleon by its tongue and fling it away.
However, just as it was about to be slammed into the ground, the Kecleon deftly supported itself with its paws. At the same time, it retracted its tongue and adjusted its posture.
*Swish!!*
The next moment, its feet stomped hard on the ground, and it charged toward Pikachu!
On the sharp claws of both its hands, a layer of dark ghost energy gathered...
Shadow Claw!!
Pikachu didn't back down either. A classic strong-arm scam... How dare they try it on him!
"Chu-Pi!!"
Pikachu leaped high into the air, swinging its heavy iron tail in a wide sweep!!
*KLANG!!*
The Shadow Claw and Iron Tail locked in mid-air, sending a burst of electric sparks flying!
"Wawu!!"
But in the next moment, the Kecleon exerted its strength a second time. The ghostly power of the tyrannical Shadow Claw swelled, sending the entire mouse Pokémon flying!!——
(Some people might not get this reference, so here's an explanation.)
(This refers to the Mystery Dungeon series. If you encounter a Kecleon stall and the protagonist takes something without paying, the Kecleon will instantly transform into a max-level boss and hunt down the protagonist.)
