Subduing Zubat (Seeking flowers, seeking collections, seeking evaluation tickets)

"Next, it's your turn." Qing Wu was an extremely cautious person, and Zubat were wild and untamable.

Qing Wu wove the picked vines into a net and had Kecleon use Rock Tomb to seal the cave entrance.

This was to prevent the Zubat from escaping if the taming failed.

This was a Sprite of Green Quality, and if it escaped into the wild, Qing Wu would absolutely not be able to find it.

This would cause Qing Wu great heartache.

Qing Wu divided the bonfire into several piles, and after adding dry branches, the bonfire burned even more fiercely.

Heat and light were the bane of Zubat, things they feared.

This was because Zubat were nocturnal Pokémon and only began to move after the sun went down.

Because their skin was so thin that it would get sunburned just by being exposed to sunlight, they would hide in dark places in caves and forests during the day to sleep.

When the weather turned cold, they would huddle together for warmth.

"Right, I still need something to block the sound." Qing Wu stuffed his ears with the fluffy leaves he had picked, because Zubat could emit ultrasonic waves.

When humans were attacked by Zubat's ultrasonic waves, they would feel intense nausea and vomiting.

In severe cases, it could even induce cardiac arrest.

After Qing Wu was fully prepared, he tightly gripped the Poké Ball in his hand and took a deep breath.

Qing Wu pressed the button in the center of the Poké Ball and threw it far away.

"Come out, Zubat." Qing Wu then shouted. In the next moment, a white light shot out from the opened Poké Ball.

After the white light disappeared, a Zubat slightly larger than its normal size appeared before Qing Wu.

It was deep blue all over, with bat wings that were wider than its body. A pair of sharp ears grew on its head.

Its cochlea and wing membranes were dark and light purple, and four white teeth could be seen in its wide-open mouth.

Zubat's eyes were very small, so small they were almost invisible. However, eyes were basically dispensable for Zubat, because when flying at night, Zubat relied on ultrasonic waves to detect their surroundings.

Two slender tails dragged below the Zubat, forming a V-shape.

This Zubat had been confined in the Poké Ball for some time. Hunger had made it even more bloodthirsty, as it was not tamed to begin with.

The Zubat opened its mouth and emitted a sharp sound wave.

The sound wave echoed in the cave, and even the flickering bonfire seemed to be disturbed by the sound wave, shaking even more violently.

Fortunately, Qing Wu had also stuffed many leaves into Kecleon's ears, so Kecleon was not woken up.

Kecleon was actually the most relaxed one in the cave, lying on the ground and emitting happy, hoarse sounds.

{Hoarse, happy sleeping sounds. Emitting three hoarse sounds indicates excellent sleep quality.}

The Zubat, having been hungry for several days, flapped its wings and flew through the cave with extreme agility. The cave was, after all, their home.

Flying in such a confined space was something the Zubat was very familiar with.

A smile appeared on the Zubat's lips as it emitted a sharp Supersonic to disrupt Qing Wu's movements.

From the Supersonic, it detected that the cave entrance was completely sealed. Originally intending only to escape to the wilderness, it decided to completely drain this human to appease its rumbling Stomach.

But Qing Wu, who had long been prepared, would not let the Zubat succeed.

The Zubat suddenly discovered that the human before it had raised a burning torch.

The Zubat almost crashed into the torch. Somewhat angered, the Zubat rapidly flapped its wings, wanting to extinguish the torch.

"You've lost your chance." Qing Wu, with quick hands and eyes, threw out the Vine Net he had just woven.

The Zubat couldn't dodge in time and was directly captured by the net, falling to the ground.

Qing Wu quickly held down the four corners of the net to prevent the Zubat from escaping.

"Hiss hiss hiss..." Pained sounds came from the Zubat's mouth as it struggled desperately within the net.

However, the Vine Net was tied with a slipknot by Qing Wu, completely binding the Zubat.

"Zubat, surrender to me. The moment you were caught by me, you became my prisoner." Qing Wu said calmly.

Qing Wu continuously brought the torch closer to the Zubat. The heat and light from the torch kept stimulating the Zubat.

The Zubat did not want to surrender to a human just like that; it was quite defiant.

If it hadn't been hungry for days, it wouldn't have been so easily caught by Qing Wu.

"I know you're quite defiant, but you're not even as good as my Kecleon."

Qing Wu pointed at Kecleon, saying that Kecleon had been torn to pieces by the enraged Sprite for him, to cover his retreat.

It was a spirit that feared no destruction, whose tears would only dry when the candle turned to ash.

As the torch got closer and closer, the Zubat became more and more terrified, as if it had suffered severe damage, letting out a shrill Screech.

The Zubat struggled desperately, but the Vine Net tightened with each struggle, so tight that the Zubat could barely breathe.

"Surrender to me, and I will give you food, grant you dignified respect, and train you into a powerful Pokémon."

Qing Wu took out a Pitcher Plant filled with a fishy-smelling blood.

In the eyes of the Zubat, the blood was exceptionally sweet. The Zubat hadn't eaten for a while, and its little belly was very shriveled.

Qing Wu had also added Orange Fruit to the blood, making the taste even more extraordinary.

The Zubat secretly swallowed its saliva, but it didn't want this human to see that it was already drooling. It still had its last bit of pride.

"Oh dear, I spilled it by accident." Qing Wu "accidentally" poured the Pitcher Plant filled with fresh blood onto the ground.

The Zubat watched the gurgling fresh blood, which quickly disappeared into the dry ground.

The Zubat wailed in its heart, Oh no, oh no, oh no, don't do this.

Just as the Zubat was filled with despair, Qing Wu took out another identical Pitcher Plant from behind and said to the Zubat with a smile, "Are you convinced or not?"

In the end, the Zubat shamefully lowered its head and silently recited in its heart.

"I am not submitting to you because of the food, but because your power makes me revere you. Yes, it must be like this!!!"

After the Zubat figured it out, it quickly let out a plea for mercy. Qing Wu toyed with the Zubat for a while.

Under the Zubat's resentful gaze, he accidentally spilled the blood again, causing the Zubat's heart to ache and its body to twitch.

Finally, after Qing Wu confirmed that the Zubat had completely submitted, he untied the net woven from vines.

The Zubat couldn't wait to suck the fresh blood spilled on the ground, but it was immediately stopped by Qing Wu.

Qing Wu took out another Pitcher Plant and pierced its outer wall, allowing a small stream of blood to seep out.

As expected, your father is your father. The Zubat was truly convinced. The Zubat, weakened by hunger, lunged at the Pitcher Plant.

The Zubat sucked the fresh blood ecstatically, its taste completely captivating it.

After drinking its fill of blood, the Zubat regained some strength.

Qing Wu directly picked up the Poké Ball that had fallen on the ground and then completely released the Zubat.

Taking advantage of the Zubat's momentary confusion, Qing Wu threw the Poké Ball.

The Poké Ball hit the Zubat again, completely capturing it. The Zubat did not resist at all.

The red light on the Poké Ball extinguished, signifying that the Zubat acknowledged Qing Wu's strength.

Then, the Poké Ball opened again, and the Zubat appeared before Qing Wu, flapping its wings and perching on Qing Wu's shoulder.

After all the commotion, the Zubat was indeed a bit tired. Qing Wu stroked the Zubat's little head.

"From now on, I am your Trainer. Please guide me."

The Zubat drooped its head and let out an arrogant chirp, indicating its willingness to be guided.

Qing Wu looked at the Bright Moon hanging high in the sky and lay down as well. Sleep, there are many things to do tomorrow.
