【Sprite: Whale Walk】
[Attribute: Ice]
【Level: 10】
[Potential: Champion]
【Characteristic: Thick Fat (Reduces damage taken from Fire and Ice type moves by half.)】
[Skills: Impact, Snowflakes, Echo.]
[Inherited Skill: Icicle Pursuit.]
【Intimacy Level: 150 (Maximum 255)】
Whale has a high affinity with Gary, but unfortunately it has the Thick Fat ability. Although it eliminates one weakness, its overall effect is not significant, since Ice-type Pokémon have four weaknesses, and eliminating one still leaves three.
However, that doesn't matter. Whale has three abilities, the other two being Snowplow and Forced Rush, both of which are good abilities.
The key point is that this Whale has an inherited skill, which is Ice Pillar Pursuit. This is one of the few physical attack skills among Ice-type moves that has a pursuit effect. Combined with Whale's Strike ability, it can unleash extremely terrifying power.
"Whale, come out and say goodbye to your mother and siblings."
After reviewing the data on the Whale, Xiao Mao released the Whale.
"Oh!"
The walking whale was very obedient, bidding farewell to the giant whale and the other two walking whales.
"Oh!"
"Oh!"
The other two walking whales were very envious of their brother, who was able to leave early to join the training.
Because the area around Frostmog Mountain is all snow, the walking whale has a special ability: it can swim back and forth on the snow. Combined with its large size and strong carrying capacity, it is an excellent means of transportation on snow.
When the people of Frostsmear Village need a means of transportation, they come to the wilderness to tame the Whale. After all, the Whale can eat snow, and who wouldn't like such a useful and cheap means of transportation?
"Brother, look, it's an Articuno!"
Just then, a voice came from behind.
"Ok?"
Xiao Mao was startled because the voice sounded somewhat familiar. He turned around and saw a blue-haired man wearing a yellow down jacket. As the man approached, he saw a blue-haired little girl.
"is her!"
Xiao Mao was startled. The little girl was naturally Gu Ling, whom he had met that morning. Xiao Mao also recognized the man next to Gu Ling; he was none other than Gu Luxia, the head of the Frostmog Mountain Gym.
"antiquity...!"
Xiao Mao hadn't thought that way before, but now that he sees the two of them together, and Gu Ling called him "brother," it's clear they're siblings, if not blood-related, then they're cousins.
538: Gurusha
"Xiao Mao!! It's you! You actually found the Whale Walker." Gu Ling was also surprised to find Xiao Mao.
"Articuno!?"
Gurusha was very surprised to see Articuno, not expecting that what his sister said was true.
At noon, Guling ran up the mountain and told Gurusha that she had seen a trainer who had captured Articuno.
Articuno is a migratory bird that travels all over the world, and it would naturally pass through the Frosty Mountains of the Padiya region, which is also home to legends about Articuno.
Gurusha initially didn't believe his sister's words, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he had no choice but to believe her.
Xiao Mao also looked at Gurusha, mainly focusing on Gurusha's legs.
Guruja was a snowboarder. During a snowboarding competition, a walking whale suddenly ran into the track. In order not to hurt the whale, Guruja was not careful when dodging and broke his right leg, forcing him to retire.
Although his broken right leg has recovered, he can only move normally and do simple exercises. It is obviously impossible for him to enter professional competitions again. It can only be said that Gurusha is an unlucky person.
"Brother, look, I told you someone had caught Articuno, but you didn't believe me." Gu Ling didn't think much of it, pointing at Articuno to prove she wasn't lying.
"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have distrusted you. Please forgive me," Guruxia said indulgently.
Seeing Glussa so gentle, Gary felt very surprised, because this guy was usually very cold and only showed his emotions during intense Pokémon battles.
"Um... is there something you need?" Xiao Mao asked.
Although he didn't know why the two of them were here, Gary didn't think that Grimo had brought Grusha out to find him and prove that she had seen Articuno.
"It's nothing serious, my sister just said she wanted to tame a walking whale, so I brought her here to see. I didn't expect to run into you," Gurusha said.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Mao realized he had misunderstood. Gu Ling didn't actually want to subdue the Whale; he just knew that Gu Ling was there to subdue the Whale and was using this as a pretext.
Gurusha's ace Pokémon is Wailord, and as the gym leader of Mt. Frostmourne, he is very familiar with the habitats of Pokémon in the Mt. Frostmourne area, and naturally he is also very clear about the distribution of Wailord.
It was his younger sister who wanted to tame a Whale, and Gurusha certainly wouldn't choose a Whale with poor potential, so he came here.
Thinking of this, Xiao Mao looked at Gu Ling.
Gu Ling seemed to realize that Xiao Mao had seen through her plan, so she didn't dare to look Xiao Mao in the eye. Instead, she boldly walked up to Xiao Mao's walking whale and greeted it.
"Whale, long time no see. Have you been tamed by Xiao Mao yet?" Gu Ling asked.
Judging from his tone, Gu Ling clearly recognized this walking whale, and even this enormous whale. No wonder the walking whales weren't afraid of him at all; they had already come into contact with Gu Luxia.
"Yes." Shigeru's Whale nodded, indicating that it had been tamed by Shigeru.
"If you want to tame the Whales, go find the other two. This one is mine," Xiao Shigeru reminded him.
After all, Gu Ling is only a six or seven-year-old child, and Xiao Mao is really worried that she will make a fuss about wanting her own walking whale.
"Don't worry, I'm not that kind of willful child."
After saying that, Gu Ling walked up to the Great Whale and asked, "Great Whale, I also want to tame a walking whale. Would you be willing to give me your child?"
The massive whale looked at Gu Ling, then at Gu Luxia.
"Waru".
The giant whale nodded, agreeing to let Gu Ling take one of the whales with her.
Seeing how generous the great whale was, Xiao Mao felt that the great whale might not have much maternal love; its duty was simply to take care of the safety of the wandering whales.
The massive whale's inner thoughts at that moment: "What a wonderful day! We've just gotten rid of those two burdens. If only we could find another whale to adopt."
Seeing that the giant whale had agreed, Gu Ling excitedly ran to Gu Luxia's side and pulled Gu Luxia over.
"Brother, the Great Whale has agreed. Which one should I choose?" Gu Ling asked anxiously.
It seems that Gu Ling really intends to capture the Whale. As for whether he will run into Shigeru, that depends on luck.
Gurusha observed two walking whales and finally selected the one with the potential to become a near-elite king.
Gurusha's ace Pokémon is Whale, and with years of experience in breeding, he can also select Whale with high potential.
"Okay, then it's you."
Excitedly, Guling took out a Poké Ball and captured the near-Elite Four potential Wailord.
· ·Request flowers·· ·········
The only whale left behind looked lonely; its siblings had all been chosen, leaving it all alone.
"Brother, this walking whale is so pitiful. Why don't you tame another walking whale?" Gu Ling pleaded.
Gurusha was also having a headache. He already had a Whale and a Whale, so catching another Whale would be redundant. However, it wouldn't be a big problem to keep it in the gym, since the Whale could just eat snow and it wouldn't cost much.
“Alright, you massive whale, I’ll take your last child with me. Are you alright?” Gurusha said.
"Waru!"
The enormous whale squinted and nodded with a smile.
That's great! All three burdens have been sent away, and now I can go and date again.
.. ..... ....
"Waru".
Whale watched as its three children followed their trainer, waved, and glided away on the snow, quickly disappearing into the distance, leaving Gary and the others stunned.
Guruxia and Guling, the siblings, were both completely bewildered.
Xiao Mao shook his head helplessly, lamenting the rare maternal love found in this vast whale.
"Whale, come in."
Looking at the innocent Whale, Gary recalled it into its Poké Ball to prevent it from knowing that its mother didn't love it very much.
“Guling, let’s catch Whaley too.” Gurusha took out two Poké Balls and handed one to Guling.
The brother and sister each put the two whales inside.
After successfully subduing it, Gu Ling was overjoyed.
"Now that I've tamed the whale, I can ski too."
Because the Whale can swim around on the snow, once you subdue the Whale, you can freely traverse the snow and even slide down from high mountains without any problem.
"Xiao Mao, we'll take our leave now."
Having subdued the whale, Gurusha also planned to leave with his sister.
"Wait a minute," Little Amo called out to Gurusha.
"Is something the matter?" Gurusha asked.
Gu Ling also looked puzzled, wondering why Xiao Mao had called them back.
“I know Mr. Gurusha is the gym leader of Mt. Frost and wants to have a gym battle with you,” Gary said.
"What! You want to challenge my brother? Okay! Okay!" Before Guruxia could agree, Guling nodded vigorously in agreement.
539: Challenge Gurusha
Seeing Gu Ling so excited.
Gurusha was in a real bind. He could tell that Guru knew that Gary had Articuno and was eager to see how Articuno fought.
