Chapter 175 - Chapter 175: The Brutal Haunter

The battle isn't over yet, it's not time to stop, Matt shouted, "Pidgeot, Wing Attack!"

Pidgeot endured the pain of its injuries, flapped its wings, and its wings, like sharp blades, cut through the air, emitting a white glow, heading straight for Haunter.

The Wing Attack, carrying a fierce wind, was about to strike Haunter's body.

However, at this moment, Haunter suddenly used the Double Team move, and its body split into two.

When the two Haunters appeared in front of Pidgeot, it was clearly a little confused.

But with the arrow on the string, it had no choice but to fire, and it could only randomly collide with one of the Haunters.

Unfortunately, this Haunter's body turned into smoke and dissipated in place, clearly a Double Team.

When there's a gap, it's up to the Trainer to make up for it, and Matt reacted immediately.

"Aerial Ace!"

Upon receiving the command, Pidgeot's figure flashed, turning into a ray of light, returning at an astonishing speed, and an Aerial Ace precisely struck Haunter's body, continuously piercing and attacking it.

Haunter was also caught off guard and was directly injured, letting out a pained cry.

But no matter what, it is a Quasi-Elite Four Level Pokémon, in a word, it can still endure.

Haunter was caught off guard by Pidgeot's continuous attacks, but more than that, there was anger and killing intent, it roared, preparing to counterattack with a move of its own.

But just then, Matt's voice sounded again: "Charizard, now, use Air Slash to interrupt its offensive, then Dragon Breath!"

Charizard heard the words and quickly adjusted its state, its broad wings vibrated behind it, and then it fanned out sharp Air Slashes!

Now Haunter not only couldn't counterattack with a move of its own, but it could only frantically block Charizard's Air Slash!

However, since it was a sudden attack, Haunter still took a few hits.

Seizing this opportunity, Charizard's abdomen began to swell, and explosive Fire-type energy boiled within its body, after it opened its large mouth, it instantly transformed into a scorching Dragon Breath, rushing straight towards Haunter.

Seeing this, Haunter hurriedly used Ghost-type energy to form a shield to resist, but the power of Dragon Breath was too great, directly breaking through the shield and heavily striking Haunter's body!

Another scream, even Haunter could only consider itself unlucky, being directly blasted away.

Haunter was furious, it wildly swung its giant claws, preparing to use the Curse move, releasing strange Ghost-type energy continuously.

Seeing this, Matt hurriedly shouted: "Be careful, Pidgeot, use Brave Bird to interfere with it, don't let its move succeed!"

Upon hearing this, Pidgeot's figure flashed, its body enveloped in dazzling light, once again transforming into the appearance of a divine bird, crossing to Haunter's front at an astonishing speed.

Boom!!!

A Brave Bird heavily struck Haunter's body, interrupting the Curse move it was about to unleash.

Haunter was somewhat disoriented from Pidgeot's Brave Bird, and before it could stabilize itself, it heard Matt's voice sound again from below: "Charizard, use Inferno, give it the final blow!"

Charizard immediately condensed Fire-type energy to the extreme within its body, its entire body enveloped in flames, as if it had transformed into a fire dragon.

Then it opened its gaping maw and spewed out a scorching pillar of flame, directly striking Haunter's body, completely engulfing it in flames.

Haunter let out a painful roar, trying to resist with Ghost-type energy, but the power of Inferno was too great, directly breaking through its energy shield, the flames burning its body, causing it immense pain.

"Haunter!!!"

With its roar, the Gym Leader Level Haunters below began to fly up into the sky, the souls within them emitting mournful cries and wails.

They seemed to know what their fate would be!

Matt frowned upon seeing this and said, "Interrupt them!"

Pidgeot and Charizard headed towards Haunter, while Fearow and Weezing quickly moved towards these Haunters.

But just as their moves reached these Haunters, these Haunters turned into streaks of shadow, and even being cut had no effect.

They were directly swallowed up by the Haunter in the sky!

The previously injured Haunter instantly recovered to its peak, and its body was even larger than before, with even more violent energy within it.

This guy truly didn't live for a thousand years in vain!

It sneered, unleashing Dark Pulse with all its might, blasting Pidgeot and Charizard away!

Then its cold eyes looked down, smirking sinisterly at Matt and the others! Its huge body turned into a shadow and lunged over, its eyes filled with mockery and intense killing intent!

Its eyes seemed as if they were about to devour the souls of Matt and Giovanni.

Hmm?

Especially Giovanni, the scent emanating from his soul was truly very strong! It made it somewhat unable to stop!

And it also saw the Haunter next to Giovanni, it saw this traitor who ate its rations, yet didn't listen to it and dared to evolve, it also wanted to tear it apart and eat it.

However, it quickly noticed something was wrong.

Because besides the Haunter who was almost scared stiff, there were a few Chiefs who were a bit flustered.

Both Matt and Giovanni looked confident and unafraid.

The emotions people show might be fake, they might be acted. But the aura of the soul doesn't lie, just like Giovanni investigating with Power of Viridian.

Haunter can also judge through the soul whether a person is lying, or whether they are hiding their emotions.

What it saw currently was clearly real!

It didn't know why Giovanni and the other two were fearless, but it clearly knew that there must be a trick here!

It hadn't lived for a thousand years in vain! It had encountered such a situation before.

It remembered a cold and terrifying rainy night when it encountered that hideous, terrifying Haunter emitting a foul odor.

It shared its rations with it and lived with it, and one day that Haunter tempted it, wanting to combine with it.

As a result, just as it reached the exciting moment, it was tricked by that Haunter, almost making its delicious soul become someone else's rations.

Fortunately, it was ruthless, decisively abandoning a piece of its soul at that time, and then directly eliminated that Haunter, thus surviving.

It was also from that day on that Haunter never allowed any Ghost-type Pokémon on the island to exceed its level, and it even prevented Gastly from evolving into Haunter.

Don't ask why, if you ask, it's because it was hurt and doesn't want to recall those sad past events!
