Outside Verdant Cavern.
Li Wei was extremely satisfied with this trip to challenge the Totem Pokémon.
Arcanine's ultimate move, Precipice Blade, was a devastating weapon. Its power far exceeded Li Wei's expectations.
It also made Li Wei reconsider how powerful Milotic, who had learned Origin Pulse, might be.
Having seriously injured Totem Gumshoos, Li Wei naturally had to treat it.
As Li Wei knelt on one knee, carefully spraying Potion onto Totem Gumshoos's wounds from Precipice Blade,
the sound of running approached from the distance.
Soon, rustling came from behind the surrounding rocks.
"Squeak, squeak!"
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
Dozens of Alolan Rattata poured out of the bushes.
Their gray-black fur stood on end, and their red eyes glinted with ill intent.
Leading them was none other than the Totem Alolan Raticate Li Wei had planned to challenge earlier.
Its whiskers twitched as Dominant Raticate stared viciously at Totem Gumshoos, who was receiving treatment.
Gumshoos and Alolan Raticate were natural sworn enemies.
Of course, only the Raticate family thought so.
Gumshoos simply beat Raticate one-sidedly.
Seeing its old rival weak and badly injured,
Dominant Raticate believed this was a once-in-a-lifetime chance to take revenge and establish territorial dominance!
However, it had picked the wrong time-and the wrong audience.
Li Wei merely gave the uninvited visitors a casual glance, never pausing his treatment.
Compared with Totem Gumshoos, Dominant Raticate was utterly helpless.
Li Wei simply spoke softly to Cynthia beside him.
"I'll leave this to you, then?"
Cynthia nodded slightly, stepped forward, and tossed Garchomp's Poké Ball.
"Garchomp."
Before her voice faded, a massive blue figure descended from the sky with a terrifying draconic presence.
Garchomp stood before Cynthia. The tremor and gust from its landing alone
sent the Rattata at the front flying!
Dominant Raticate's fur bristled all over in terror
