The Rampaging Tauros! Little Snorlax's New Move! I Almost Went Straight for Life! (Please Follow)
Tauros was a Normal-type Wild Bull Pokémon.
Among the few Pokémon with no Evolutionary Form, once they reached adulthood, they were at their peak.
Tauros had Base Stats as high as 490, making it the gatekeeper of the A-Rank rating.
Charmander's final Evolutionary Form, Charizard, only had Base Stats of 540. In terms of Base Stats alone, there was not much difference between the two!
Once an irritable Tauros started running, it would not stop until it crashed into something.
The three tails behind it constantly lashed at its own body, a way of stoking its fighting spirit.
That showed just how violent this Pokémon was. When it truly went mad, it even beat itself up!
This Tauros had not yet reached adulthood, but its destructive power could not be underestimated.
Especially its pair of thick, sharp, metallic-looking curved horns, which could inflict terrifying wounds on an enemy!
Faced with such a terrifying attack, Little Snorlax almost charged out without hesitation.
For one as Lonely as it was, its owner, Ye Yinchuan, was its only support and only family. If its owner got hurt and even left it because of that, it would never allow it!
Little Snorlax was usually rather dull. Other than eating and sleeping, it would not get angry easily even if someone hit it.
But now, a Pokémon was trying to hurt its owner. It was truly angry!
The things one cherished most deep inside could trigger the most direct emotions. Those emotions controlled Little Snorlax. Even without any battle experience, even while facing this Tauros—this far stronger, muscle-bound beast charging at full force...
It would never take a single step back!
Because the best owner in the world was right behind Little Snorlax!
"Little Snorlax!"
At that moment, Ye Yinchuan felt as if he had been electrocuted, a current numbing him from head to toe. His whole body was on the verge of exploding.
But everything had happened too suddenly. No matter what he did, it was already too late.
The surrounding pedestrians saw the scene as well and turned pale in shock. Some covered their eyes, unable to bear watching the tragedy about to unfold!
In the Pokémon World, aside from traffic accidents, incidents caused by Pokémon were not uncommon either. The only differences were the extent and severity of the damage.
Cars were convenient means of transportation. They could carry people, but they could also kill people.
Pokémon, possessing extraordinary powers, were the same—if not worse!
Just as everyone thought this Little Snorlax would be seriously injured and even face mortal danger.
An unexpected change occurred!
Little Snorlax's body suddenly curled up into a ball. A layer of grayish-blue energy rapidly flowed across its surface, as though forming a protective membrane!
Bang!
The instant those changes occurred to Little Snorlax, Tauros slammed into it.
The two Pokémon collided violently, the impact drowning out all the surrounding noise.
Tauros was strong, but even an adult Tauros weighed only just under two hundred kilograms.
When it came to weight, Little Snorlax was no weaker at all!
Though the former might have been all muscle, while the latter had a bit more fat.
Still, relying on its weight, Little Snorlax did not suffer much in that clash—
Tauros and Little Snorlax were both knocked backward and sent flying by the force of the collision.
"Little Snorlax!"
In his panic, Ye Yinchuan reached out to catch Little Snorlax with his hands. The impact nearly fractured his arms, and he hurriedly adjusted his stance, using his entire body to cushion Little Snorlax.
Only when he hit the wall behind him did he finally stop.
Ye Yinchuan felt as if his chest had been struck by a hammer, his insides churning violently. But he had no time to worry about himself and immediately checked Little Snorlax's injuries.
"Huh?"
Ye Yinchuan had thought Little Snorlax's wounds would be mangled and bloody, perhaps even torn open.
But after looking for a long while, he discovered that there were only two bloody holes on the arm Little Snorlax had used to block the attack, pierced by Horn Attack...
It was not that Ye Yinchuan did not feel heartbroken. In truth, he was devastated.
But under Tauros's full-force charge, Little Snorlax had suffered only such minor injuries. That was beyond Ye Yinchuan's expectations.
For a moment, Ye Yinchuan did not know whether to laugh or cry!
"Right! Little Snorlax's performance just now, could it be..."
Ye Yinchuan swept his Appraisal Eye over it and, sure enough, found an additional Move on Little Snorlax's status panel!
But Ye Yinchuan had no time to inspect it or savor the joy of learning a new Move.
He only wanted to treat Little Snorlax's injuries first.
Little Snorlax's current status clearly read: injured, afraid, worried.
"Little Snorlax, thank you for protecting me. Don't be afraid, and don't worry either. It's all over now. We're both fine. I'll buy you even more delicious food later. This little injury of yours will heal very soon!"
Ye Yinchuan held Little Snorlax, stroking its Big Rabbit Ears as he gently comforted it.
"You can still stand up, right? I'll take you to the Pokémon Hospital right now..."
At that moment, Ye Yinchuan saw Tauros Trainer hurriedly check Tauros's injuries. After recalling it into a Poké Ball, he rushed over in a panic.
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I really am! I failed to keep an eye on my Tauros!"
Ye Yinchuan had no favorable feelings toward the one responsible.
He had nearly gotten him killed and injured Little Snorlax. What was there to say?
"Good that you know. Report this to the Pokémon Center now and explain what happened voluntarily. Face whatever punishment you should face, and pay whatever compensation you should pay."
Ye Yinchuan did not want to extort money. He only wanted the other party to pay the price he deserved.
Wild Bull Pokémon like Tauros were forbidden from being released in urban areas, so requiring them to be kept in Poké Balls was a hard rule.
According to the regulations, the man would face at least three days of detention and a one-thousand-yuan fine.
In addition, Tauros and its Poké Ball would undergo strict inspection. If there were any issues, they would be harmlessly disposed of.
"Bro, how about I compensate you with more money? Let's not report this. We can make a big deal small and a small deal disappear..."
"No!"
Ye Yinchuan cut him off. "Today, you hit a person. If anything had happened to my Little Snorlax, you'd be completely finished, understand? You bastard, you must be punished and taught a lesson!"
Although he was desperately short of money right now, Ye Yinchuan knew that someone like this had to learn a lesson, or there would be endless trouble later.
"I understand... This was my fault, and I admit it. I'm shamelessly begging you to sign a letter of forgiveness so I can receive a lighter punishment. Please, all right? I have Potion here. I can treat your Pokémon's injuries first."
Seeing how sincere the other man was, Ye Yinchuan finally nodded and reluctantly accepted.
Very soon, people from the Pokémon Center arrived, took a simple statement, and took the man away for processing.
As promised, Ye Yinchuan signed the letter of forgiveness.
The other party also paid him one thousand yuan in compensation and agreed to cover Little Snorlax's subsequent examination and treatment costs.
"What an undeserved disaster."
Although Little Snorlax's injuries had visibly improved after using Potion.
Ye Yinchuan still took Little Snorlax to the Pokémon Hospital for a thorough examination.
How could he be careless when his own child was hurt?
The Pokémon Center also provided treatment services, but those were for emergencies.
In the Pokémon World, there were specialized Pokémon Hospitals, where treatment was more comprehensive and reassuring.
By the time they returned, it was already dark.
It was almost seven o'clock, time for his stream. Ye Yinchuan did not want to make his fans wait. As a small Streamer, being late might cause him to lose what few viewers he had.
So, when the time came, he started the stream.
Is the Streamer not here? Where is this?
Ye Yinchuan spotted a familiar username, "Ms. Carrot." She had probably been waiting for him to go live.
"Ah, don't even mention it... There was a little accident today. I almost went straight for life."
Though he had nearly needed a restart, it had ultimately been a close call without real danger, so Ye Yinchuan joked about it in a relaxed tone.
Carrot Girl: No way? Streamer, you absolutely can't let anything happen to you. I finally found my Electronic Pickles! If I don't watch you appraise Pokémon on stream, how am I supposed to eat?
"Perfect timing. I'm taking Little Snorlax to eat right now."
Ye Yinchuan showed Little Snorlax and the surroundings to the camera.
Doduo Post Station was right ahead.
Little Snorlax swayed along as it focused on walking. It looked harmless to humans and Pokémon alike, like a well-behaved child.
Pay attention to the details: one hand was covering its stomach, and its mind was completely occupied with food!
"I won't be appraising Pokémon today. In a bit, I'll have Little Snorlax do an eating stream, then I'll show you the new Move it learned today!"
Haha, sounds good!
Wow, a new program?
I can't afford to raise a Little Snorlax, so I'll watch the Streamer raise one instead!
Viewers gradually began entering the livestream.
