Pokémon: Chronicles of Freedom (200 - 398)

Chapter 295: Sudden Enemy

Cain was walking through the forest with his Pokémon, unaware of the new group of people who had arrived on the Trial Island.

However, whether it was due to some deliberate intention by the group of psychics or simply someone's luck, a person suddenly appeared right in front of Cain.

"......"

"......"

They both stood there, staring at each other in silence, perhaps a bit bewildered.

The person who had appeared before Cain was wearing a black Team Rocket uniform.

Judging by his appearance, it seemed he wasn't one of the trial participants on the Trial Island.

Participants on the Trial Island usually carried a certain aura of ruthlessness, but the person in front of Cain lacked that scent.

Besides, it had already been nearly an hour since Cain had been transported to the island, so all participants should have been transported by then. This person who suddenly appeared could only be one of those who entered afterward.

That person also recognized Cain, and luckily he was transported along with his Pokémon; otherwise, Cain, who reacted first, might have already attacked him.

"Primeape! Cross Chop!" the person shouted as his Primeape prepared to attack.

After giving the order, the man stepped back a few paces to avoid being directly attacked by Cain. Then, he took two Pokéballs from his belt, holding them firmly in his hands.

"Slowpoke, Confusion!" Cain ordered quickly.

This sudden encounter had indeed taken him by surprise.

Slowpoke's eyes shone with an intense blue glow, stopping Primeape mid-air just before it could launch its attack.

However, Primeape quickly broke free from Slowpoke's Confusion move and lunged to attack again.

Nevertheless, due to the brief delay caused by Confusion, Cain and Slowpoke managed to retreat to a safe distance.

Both Cain and the Team Rocket member stared at each other without making any moves.

"Are you one of the participants?" finally asked the Team Rocket member.

Upon hearing his question, Cain confirmed the man's identity. However, he still didn't know if this person was a subordinate of an ordinary Officer or a Senior Officer.

The fact that his Primeape could break free from Slowpoke's Confusion move showed that his strength was not weak.

It's worth noting that Psychic-type moves are highly effective against Fighting-types. For a Fighting-type Pokémon to resist Slowpoke's Confusion, its skill level had to be quite high.

Cain didn't immediately answer; instead, he used his system to scan Primeape's data.
