I'm the Owner of the Pokémon Day Care In the World of Pokémon Chapter 153: The Team Aqua’s Purpose

However, neither Norman nor Shelly had completely misjudged the situation. Yuga's true strength wasn't as formidable as it seed.

Linoone and Audino weren't his Pokémon; they rely followed his commands. Greninja was tad through Linoone's intervention, and like Great Flygon, it didn't know that Linoone and Audino weren't Yuga's Pokémon. This lack of awareness made them obedient to Yuga's orders.

Nonetheless, these details were inconsequential. What mattered was that Yuga, with his individual efforts, had managed to suppress nurous mbers of the Team Aqua, preventing them from interfering in the showdown between Shelly and Norman.

"I never expected the kid by your side to be this strong!" Shelly commanded Walrein while addressing Norman.

Although Norman was also surprised by Yuga's strength, he wouldn't openly admit it. Instead, he smiled and replied, "I told you, you might not have it all your way!"

Following this, Walrein engaged in an intense battle against Kangaskhan.

Despite the slight level difference between the two Pokémon, Walrein was slightly inferior in strength to Kangaskhan. Each Ice Ball shot by Walrein was rcilessly shattered by Kangaskhan's ga Punch.

While Walrein's Ice Ball move has the added effects of becoming more powerful with each consecutive hit and increasing in power with each turn, Kangaskhan adopts a "survival of the fittest" ntality, facing Walrein's attacks head-on with an unwavering stance, not dodging or evading. Kangaskhan takes the approach of eting Walrein's attacks head-to-head, breaking through them with sheer force.

At this point, as Walrein's Trainer, Shelly finally recognized that the renowned Gym Trainer from the Hoenn Region was not easily dealt with.

On the other side, Yuga was locked in intense combat with other mbers of the Team Aqua. Both Linoone and Greninja possessed remarkable speed. They surged into the crowd like assassins, swiftly knocking out the weaker mbers. With Audino's support, they had an almost unstoppable advantage, creating a one-sided battle situation.

Shelly watched the current scenario with growing concern. As she waited for backup that seed delayed, she found it increasingly difficult to fend off Norman's attacks.

The hostages in the vicinity were beyond her concern now. Unable to capture Norman and Yuga, the other Team Aqua mbers had lost their purpose. In the midst of the battle's chaos, the hostages had retreated to a safe corner.

To make matters worse, the final straw ca when Grabby, along with Officer Jenny and the police force, finally arrived at the scene, encircling the television station.

As Officer Jenny and her team stord in, they witnessed Kangaskhan, under Norman's command, delivering a punch that sent Shelly and her Walrein crashing to the ground.

Frustrated, Shelly recalled her Walrein with a scowl. She realized that she couldn't continue the battle any longer. While the main objective had been achieved, other considerations were trivial.

Shelly swiftly threw a smoke bomb and leaped out of the window. By the ti the smoke cleared, there was no trace of her in the hall.

Norman and Yuga had initially believed that the police force outside would apprehend her. Yet, Shelly had employed a flying device developed by the Team Aqua, which allowed her to escape through the sky.

With the Team Aqua's core mber on the run, the remaining mbers, who were less skilled, were re disorganized soldiers. They were quickly arrested by Officer Jenny and her team.

With the Team Aqua subdued, the hostages were finally safe. Grabby, who seed to appear out of nowhere, rushed to a man in the crowd, sobbing uncontrollably. It was clear that this man was her partner, Ty.

Afterward, Grabby and Ty ca to express their gratitude to Yuga.

"We're truly grateful to you. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know what might have happened to us at the hands of those people!" Tearfully, Grabby thanked Yuga earnestly.

Ty, standing beside her, was equally emotional. "Indeed, indeed! Your performance just now was incredibly heroic. You single-handedly defeated so many people!"

Yuga waved his hand modestly, responding humbly, "No, no, the real credit goes to Mr. Norman. If he hadn't held off their leader, I wouldn't have been of much help."

From Ty's account, Yuga then learned about the Team Aqua's purpose for this mission.

It turned out that during an excursion for source materials, Grabby and Ty unintentionally stumbled upon information about the ancient Pokémon Groudon and Kyogre. This data was taken back to the television station. The Team Aqua attacked them both to retrieve this information.

Regarding the occupation of the television station, Ty explained that it was an impromptu decision by Shelly. She intended to establish it as a base for collecting information after obtaining the data. Hence, they didn't leave once they found the information but instead captured the station's staff.

Although most of the Team Aqua's mbers had been apprehended, Shelly, the central figure, managed to escape and took with her the crucial data about Groudon and Kyogre.

As there was still so cooperation required with the police for recording statents, after thanking Yuga, Grabby and Ty accompanied the police to the station.

Before leaving, they made it clear that if Yuga ever needed their assistance, they would be ready to help without hesitation.

After Grabby and Ty departed, Mr. Norman, who had finished his tasks, approached. He smiled and said to Yuga, "I must really thank you this ti. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to rescue the television station and the hostages so quickly."

Facing the more experienced Trainer, Yuga remained modest, saying, "I just happened to et Ms. Grabby. That's why I accidentally got involved. I almost ruined everything, so it's not much of an accomplishnt." If Yuga had known that Mr. Norman was already investigating the matter, he likely wouldn't have interfered.

Norman smiled and said, "If there's credit to be given, then credit should be given. Why be so modest? I'll report this matter to higher-ups, and your contribution won't go unnoticed."

Though Yuga maintained his humility, if Norman was willing to acknowledge his contribution, he certainly wouldn't decline.

"However, I never expected that soone of your young age would have such outstanding strength," Norman exclaid. He had initially thought that people as exceptional as Robert were already considered geniuses, but Yuga seed to surpass Robert's excellence.

Yuga was reluctant to admit his exceptional strength, so he kept humbling himself in front of Norman. Ironically, this made Norman perceive Yuga as a modest and composed individual, elevating Norman's appreciation for him.

With the matters at the television station resolved, Yuga recalled Greninja and continued on with Linoone and Audino to purchase Pokéblocks.

On the way, Yuga noticed that Linoone appeared sowhat downcast. He looked at Linoone and asked, "What's wrong, Linoone?"

"Linoone..."

Linoone lifted its head and emitted a soft call towards Yuga, then lowered its head in dejection.

"Audino, Audino!" Audino, standing by, started calling out and gesturing, attempting to explain to Yuga. But how could Yuga understand it?

However, a thought seed to occur to Yuga suddenly. He turned to Linoone and asked, "Are you feeling guilty because the Team Aqua discovered us because of you?"

At Yuga's words, Linoone's body froze montarily before it slowly nodded.

Sensing that he was right, Yuga squatted down, patted Linoone's head, and said, "That was an accident. Nobody wanted it to happen, right?"

Although Linoone still appeared sowhat disheartened, Yuga continued, "If today's incident was because of , would you bla ?"

Linoone shook its head.

"Just like you, I wouldn't bla you either! Moreover, you perford really well today, defeating so many Team Aqua mbers. I'm more grateful to you than I can express. How could I bla you?"

Upon hearing Yuga's words, Linoone's expression improved sowhat. Together, the Trainer and his two Pokémon resud their journey to purchase Pokéblocks.
