Pachi! Pachirisu!! (Get up! Get up!!)
Pachirisu repeatedly slaps Lukas's face to wake him up.
Croconaw is lying nearby, sleeping soundly.
Bulbasaur has seen Bob get knocked around by girls plenty of times, and he's planning to learn a healing move for Bob for those occasions.
For now, he'll stick to the simplest method.
Vines sprout from Bulbasaur, smacking Bob's butt hard.
"Ouch!! Who smacked my butt? Oh, it's you." Bob stands up, rubbing his backside.
Bulbasaur is usually quite gentle, but his trainer has some brain issues, so he has to act strict, or else the guy will pull some stunt again.
Seeing Bulbasaur wake Bob up like that, Pachirisu gets an idea.
So, it shocks both Lukas and Croconaw with electricity.
"AGHHHHJWJCKSMXLSJFN?!?"
Pachirisu is delighted to see both of them open their eyes, but they're not so thrilled.
Gah... (1 hp)
Croconaw is charred black, puffing out black smoke, while Lukas looks absolutely wrecked.
"Uhhh… Did I just gamble and win or something?" Lukas turns to ask Bob.
"Bruh, why are you asking me??"
"…I think we have a mission we haven't done yet."
"Oh yeah, you're right… Wasn't it to find a way to contact the outside or something?"
"Yea, yea, that! So where are Rey and the others?"
"We split up on our own, so they probably went ahead."
Hearing this, Lukas and Bob look at each other and clasp hands tightly.
"Brother, we'll stand shoulder to shoulder. I pee, you drink; I poop, you eat; I chew, you swallow; and when I'm playing, you get lost. Deal?" Bob says in a suave tone.
"Hehe, brothers live and die together—of course, you die, and I live. That's true brotherhood!" Lukas wipes his nose.
"Hmph! Brain-dead thinking, but I like it!"
The Pokémon look at them, then at each other, and all sigh.
Tiny brains, yet they learn all the ridiculous stuff.
So, they, along with their Pokémon, head toward what they believe is the location of the communication room.
Hiding behind a wall, Bob and Lukas peek out and see two burly guards.
"Hmm! This is tough. We might not even beat those two ourselves. We'll have to rely on our Pokémon!" Bob sweats, eyeing the guards' muscles and their bald heads.
"No need, Bobu! I've got an idea!"
Lukas pulls out a Spidey mask from somewhere and puts it on.
*Sniff sniff*
"UGHHH!! WHY DOES IT STINK SO BAD?? DO YOU EVER WASH THAT MASK??"
"WHAT DO YOU KNOW? REMEMBER PETER PARKER THREW HIS SPIDER-MAN SUIT IN THE TRASH, SO I'M JUST FOLLOWING HIS LEAD!"
"Dude, get your brain checked."
Lukas then steps out, summoning Gible.
"Google! Let's take down Kingpin's goons!"
Gible!! (I'm not Google!)
"Lass uns gehen!!" (German)
The Pokémon and Bob watch in shock as Lukas charges in with Gible, fearless of danger.
"Hey! You there! Stop right now!" one of the guards warns.
Seeing Lukas still charging, both guards release their Pokémon.
"Ursaring!"
"Houndoom!"
Both Pokémon appear, radiating powerful auras.
They're probably around level 30 at most!
But Lukas keeps charging, and the guards issue commands.
"Houndoom, Fire Fang!"
"Ursaring, Slash!"
Houndoom lunges, aiming its jaws at Gible, while Ursaring goes for Lukas.
"DON'T MESS WITH SPIDER-MAN!!"
Lukas pulls something out from his sleeve.
It's a grappling hook originally used for stealing Pokémon, but upgraded! Thanks to Telsa, this hook has enhanced capabilities.
And he's about to show it off now!
Lukas shoots the grappling hook at the wall and swings away, surprising everyone.
"Hehe! Cool, right?!"
Then Lukas falls into a fish tank.
"..." The two guards stare at Lukas, baffled.
Gible!!!
The guards widen their eyes, turning toward the sound and noticing Houndoom losing ground.
"What?! How is my Pokémon losing to that tiny thing??"
Houndoom tries to bite Gible, but Gible bites it first, with an unbelievably strong chomp!
Seeing things go south, Ursaring moves to assist.
"Ugh! This water's disgusting! Croconaw! Attack now!"
Croconaw leaps out, blasting a Water Gun at Ursaring.
Ursaring is pushed back by the force of the water, glaring angrily at Croconaw.
"Houndoom! Fire Spin!"
Houndoom creates a fiery vortex around itself and Gible, even though it takes some damage too.
"Ursaring, ignore Croconaw! Focus on that weird hammerhead shark and use Close Combat!"
Ursaring prepares to unleash a devastating Fighting-type attack.
"Don't forget I'm here!"
The grappling hook shoots toward Ursaring, wrapping around its arm and binding it tightly.
"What?! That jerk is interfering with Ursaring!" Both guards glare at Lukas.
"Hehe! Take this!"
Lukas then flies straight into Ursaring due to the hook's strong pull, slamming his head into Ursaring's.
This causes Ursaring's head to swell, while Lukas's head gets dented.
"Cocomelon! Shoot a watermelon Water Gun at that black dog! Quick!"
Croconaw follows orders, firing a Water Gun at Houndoom.
"Damn it! Houndoom, dodge!"
Houndoom, already in pain from Gible's bite, is forced to leap away.
"Heh! Opportunity!"
Another voice appears. Houndoom sees Bob charging out of nowhere, grabbing it tightly.
The Water Gun hits Houndoom directly, dealing significant damage.
Ursaring, furious at the interference, charges at Croconaw with full force.
"Your opponent is ME!"
Lukas jumps up, landing a hard kick to Ursaring's neck.
It doesn't hurt much, but it's enough to provoke it.
GAHHHHH!!!
Ursaring throws a punch straight into Lukas's stomach, nearly making him vomit.
But Lukas stands his ground, retaliating with a punch to Ursaring's stomach.
Ursaring gets even angrier, preparing to use Close Combat on this reckless human.
Suddenly, vines appear out of nowhere, binding both of Ursaring's arms.
Ursaring looks back and sees Bulbasaur.
"CROCODILE! ICE FANG!"
Croconaw leaps forward, sinking its icy jaws into Ursaring's shoulder.
GAHHHHHH!!!!
"NOT DONE YET!"
Lukas throws an uppercut to Ursaring's jaw, while Croconaw scratches its legs.
Lukas then jumps up, delivering a kick to its neck, and Croconaw climbs onto Lukas to claw at its face.
Lukas uses his other leg to shove Ursaring back.
As Ursaring starts to fall, it's pulled back by Lukas's grappling hook.
Croconaw appears behind Ursaring, biting its back.
Lukas lands two punches to its cheeks, while Croconaw shoot water.
"USHAAAAAAA!!!" Lukas raises his final fist, and Croconaw emits a chilling aura from its mouth.
Bang!
Ursaring takes the full brunt of both attacks, from human and Pokémon alike.
Boom!
Ursaring collapses, completely knocked out.
The scene leaves the two guards utterly stunned.
Since when does a human fight alongside their Pokémon so literally??
