Chapter 196: Ghost Face Showdown!! (No one scared anyone in the end)
After Gastly and Haunter were driven away, Ankang hurried forward, nervously held Heimer's hand and asked worriedly.
Ankang: "Heimer! Are you okay?"
After Heimer withdrew his hand that was held by Ankang, he looked at him puzzledly and asked.
Chi Haimo: "Ankang? Why are you here? Did Wuming ask you to come here?"
Ankang: "No, I... I saw you coming to the venue, and then, I saw that you didn't leave the venue, so I was a little worried about you and wanted to come and see you."
After a moment of silence, Heimer slowly stood up and spoke to Ankang calmly.
Chi Haimo: "Just now, thank you and the cursed doll. Um, Jigglypuff is poisoned. I have to go to the Pokémon Center as soon as possible. Well, I'm leaving first. Bye."
After Heimer finished speaking, he immediately ran out of the venue with Jigglypuff in his arms. After Ankang watched Heimer's departing figure completely disappear from his sight, he also left with the cursed doll with peace of mind.
After Heimer arrived at the Pokémon Center in Axe Town next to Viridian City, Miss Joy immediately took the Jigglypuff from Heimer's arms and began to make an antidote for Jigglypuff.
During this time, Heimer borrowed the kitchen of the Pokémon Center and brewed a pot of specially blended blue, orange and red tea.
After the toxins in Jigglypuff's body were completely cleared, Heimer came to her ward with some black tea.
When Jigglypuff saw Heimer, he waved happily and greeted him. Heimer put the black tea on the small table on the bed and asked worriedly.
Chi Haimo: "Still feeling bad?"
Jigglypuff: "Polly."
After gently holding Heimer's hand, Jiggly patted the back of Heimer's hand and shook her head, as if to tell Heimer that she was fine.
Chi Haimo: "Well, I'm glad you're okay. Drink this, it will help you regain your strength."
Jigglypuff: "PollyPolly."
Heimer slowly poured a cup of black tea and handed it to Jigglypuff. Jigglypuff elegantly took a sip and breathed a sigh of relief.
Chi Haimo: "Well, Jigglypuff, is there anything you want to eat? I'll go buy it for you."
Jigglypuff: "PollyPolly."
Jigglypuff shook her head. It looked like she didn't want to eat anything.
Chi Haimo: "Puffy, if you have anything, remember to press the bell next to you. Well, then you have a good rest. I'm leaving first."
After Heimer finished speaking, he picked up the teapot, left Jigglypuff's ward, and carefully closed the door of Jigglypuff's ward.
(Luckily, nothing happened to Jigglypuff. Speaking of which, Ankang, well... I didn't think about anything at the time, I just picked up Jigglypuff and left. I should treat Ankang to a meal some other day and thank him properly.)
Heimer picked up the Pocket Navigator and was about to send a message to Ankang, only to find that he didn't have Ankang's number, and the number that Ankang had called him last time was now no longer in service.
(Forget it. I’ll thank him when I meet him again… Well, speaking of which, the changes in Wuming’s body are probably due to the physical and appearance reasons he mentioned at the lecture. Hmm… I’ll look for Darkrai tonight.)
Jigglypuff: "Polly!!!"
At this moment, for some reason, Jigglypuff's scream suddenly came from the ward. Seeing this, Heimer immediately pushed open the door and rushed in.
Chi Haimo: "What's wrong?!!"
At this moment, Jigglypuff was sitting on the bed holding a pillow and shivering. The reason was that the strange-looking Gastly he had met before was making scary faces at Jigglypuff in the light of the light bulb on the ceiling of the ward.
In the blue-gray gas, Gastly's purple smiling face looked really scary under the light.
Seeing this, Heimer immediately took out the Pokémon Ball of the Gnaphalium and wanted to use the parasitic seeds of the Gnaphalium to force Gastly back. However, as soon as Gastly saw Heimer, he smiled and immediately slipped through the wall.
When Jigglypuff saw that Ghost had left, he slowly put down the pillow in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
However, after the scare just now, Jigglypuff no longer dared to sleep outside. After Gastly left, she immediately ran to Highmore and jumped up, pressed the button on the Pokéball on Highmore's waist, and instantly turned into a red light and entered the Pokéball.
(Well, it seems that Jigglypuff was really scared. Well, have a good rest, Jigglypuff.)
I thought Gastly had left, but who knew, not long after Jigglypuff entered the Poké Ball, he suddenly appeared behind Heimer. The sweet scent of Gastly made Heimer guess that he was behind him at once.
Heimer turned around suddenly and saw Gastly's terrifying face. He was so scared that he took several steps back.
When Gastly saw that Heimer was scared by him, he happily rolled several times in the air and stuck out his tongue at Heimer.
Chi Haimo: "Well, damn it, in that case, please, Shuttlecock Grass!"
The white light faded away, and the shuttlecock grass appeared happily in the air with its leaves spinning.
Chi Haimo: "Parasitic seeds!"
A seed filled with natural power was instantly launched from the mouth of the Coleus. Facing the attack of the parasitic seed, Gastly immediately retreated and penetrated the wall to avoid it.
The parasitic seeds therefore hit the wall directly and quickly germinated and took root, and cracks immediately appeared on the wall due to the implantation of the parasitic seeds.
Chi Haimo: "Ah!! Shuttlecock grass, remove it quickly!!!"
The grass gently waved its hands, and the parasitic seeds fell off on the spot. At this moment, Gastly suddenly appeared from behind the grass. When the grass turned around, Gastly immediately made a scary face at him.
Gastly thought he could successfully scare the Gnaphalium, but unexpectedly, after seeing the face Gastly made, the Gnaphalium actually burst out laughing. The Gnaphalium was seen floating in the air, laughing so hard that it fell backwards.
Seeing that not only was Gnaphalium not scared by him but was also laughing so happily, Gastly showed a very puzzled expression.
At this moment, Gastly suddenly stuck out his tongue at Gastly, squeezed his cheeks with both hands, and made a funny face at Gastly.
When Gastly saw this, he thought that this was an invitation from Gnawka to a duel, so he fiddled with his facial features even more vigorously, making an even more distorted and terrifying expression towards Gnawka. Gnawka was not to be outdone, and squeezed his cheeks with both hands to make an even funnier expression.
(Ah, this... Never mind, let them be.)
The two sides kept fighting back and forth, but in the end no one scared the other.
However, both Gnaws and Gastly seemed to be having a lot of fun. After the grimace game ended, they floated in the air and laughed for a long time.
(Hmm, it seems like Gastly and Gastly get along very well for some reason.)
Afterwards, Heimer and Clover went to the outside of the Pokémon Center with Gastly to give him a ride.
After arriving outside, Gastly was floating in the air and saying something to the Scorpion Grass with a smile.
Gastly: "Garsis Gastly."
Shuttlecock grass: "Kunekune."
Of course, Heimer couldn't understand the language of Pokémon, but looking at the expressions of Gastly and Clover, Heimer could roughly guess what they were talking about.
But just after Gnaphalium waved goodbye to Gastly, Gastly seemed reluctant to leave. After he flew into the air, he looked back and seemed reluctant to leave Gnaphalium.
When Heimer saw Gastly's expression, he immediately guessed what he was thinking, so he walked up to him and asked gently.
Chi Haimo: "Would you like to try to travel with us?"
After hearing Heimer's suggestion, Gastly stopped in the air and thought for a long time.
When the Gnaphalium saw Gastly being so hesitant, it immediately turned its leaves and flew in front of Gastly and stretched out its little hand to him.
It seemed that Grasshopper was inviting him. Perhaps he had too much fun playing with Grasshopper tonight, so Gastly accepted Grasshopper's invitation without any hesitation.
Seeing that Gastly was willing, Heimer immediately took out an empty Poké Ball from his pocket. Gastly flew to the Poké Ball and touched the button on it, then instantly turned into a red light and flew into the Poké Ball.
The Poké Ball stopped immediately after shaking three times.
(Although you are not here for me, I am still happy to be with you, Gastly.)
