Pokémon Court-Chapter 181: Rainy Form
Chapter 181: Rainy Form
In the eyes of many, Castform does not fit the definition of strong.
Compared to those Pokmon with fierce appearances and strong physical build, Castform can only be described as cute and small.
But appearance does not mean anything, and the average standard of a species does not represent anything either.
Humans, most ordinary people, cannot resist Pokmon attacks. If a Pidgey were to peck at a humans neck it could potentially result in death.
Yet, some trained humans also have the capability to defeat some Pokmon barehanded. They surpass some Pokmon in terms of strength and speed, enabling them to directly confront Pokmon.
There are even some peculiar humans who possess unique powers, such as psychic powers, superhuman-abilities that do not fit into human identity.
The average standard of individuals cannot represent anything, because the natural world includes concepts like chance and hard work.
Without the continuous mutations, evolutions, and struggles of Pokmon over millions of years, there wouldnt be as many newborn Pokmon today.
Were those Ancient Pokmon that have already become extinct not strong?
If they were strong, why were they replaced by current Pokmon and got extinct one after another?
The history of both humans and Pokmon development is constantly changing through succession.
A powerful Pokmon could very well have evolved from a weak Pokmon.
If one were to confine Pokmon, these magical creatures with rigid data, they would never truly understand their magic.
However!
Terrance is also an ordinary person. He couldnt forcibly believe that a Wurmple, even after training, could defeat a Dragonite.
If theres a chance it must be established under unequal conditions. Wurmple evolves continuously, thus advancing its species, while the Dragonite has inherent defects.
Under equal conditionsit cannot be denied that there is a disparity between species.
But this disparity is by no means insurmountable. Approximately 1500 years ago, Magikarp were once a strong species, but due to an unknown mutation, became the weakest Pokmon.
These unknown external factors are what change Pokmon in this Castform, Terrance could see traces of being altered by external factors.
Thats why he feels this Castform is special, and feels attracted to it.
As for what makes it specialfurther battles are needed to verify.

Before the battle with Mismagius even began, the weather changed again at a surprising speed.
Rumble!
It was clearly just a simple Rain Dance, yet thunder and lightning were mixed in the dark clouds, surprising Terrance, as this was beyond logic.
Above the hill, dark clouds rolled and surged, flowing in from all directions, accumulating in thick layers, growing increasingly dense, as if thousands of troops were pressing down.
Terrance looked up, the low sky seemingly foretelling an impending storm.
This aura
Seeing the tiny body of Castform, Terrance found it hard to believe that such a small body could actually contain so much energy, and was capable of communicating with nature and weather.
Meanwhile, under the changing weather, Castforms form also changed.
From the initial gray-white body, the body gradually changed into a blue droplet shape, with a dark cloud supporting the entire body under the droplet.
In that case, Mismagius, I leave it to you.
Terrance was still confident in Mismagiuss strengthEven though this Castform was special, it is still a wild Pokmon.
Unlike Altaria and Exploud, it had not grown up through continuous battles, which one could tell from its temperament.
Attack first, Mismagius, Psybeam.
Mismagius immediately locked onto Castform, shooting a pink and purple ray towards Castform.
This was a display of strength; the first round of confrontation was just probing.
Castformmm~~~~
Facing the incoming colorful ray, Castform sensed the eerie energy within it, and without hesitation, it shook its tiny body and poof!!
A single Hydro Pump quickly pierced through the Psybeam, not even causing an energy explosion, and directly pressed down on Mismagius!
This Hydro Pump was thin, not as thick as a typical Hydro Pump, but it was also different from a Water Gun, not as dispersed.
The rapid current was condensed firmly, and under tremendous force, it sliced through Psybeam before continuing to move forward!
Following the Hydro Pump, clouds begin to drizzle, and standing on the level ground outside the cave, Terrance could clearly feel the sensation of raindrops hitting his body
It seems with the amplification of Rain Dance, the power of this Hydro Pump has increased significantly.
And in terms of shape, theres also a change
Indeed, compared to the thick Hydro Pump, this more condensed Hydro Pump is more suitable for Castforms size.
Buzz~~~~
Intercepting the Hydro Pump were a bunch of Shadow Balls. These Shadow Balls were also small, with a diameter not much different from Hydro Pump.
The reason for giving this command was because he wanted to see how much the power of Hydro Pump had been amplified under Castforms mysterious Rain Dance.
And the result greatly surprised Terrance. freewebn ovel.com
Under Mismagiuss precise energy control, the energy was evenly distributed among ten Shadow Balls. The Shadow Balls were continuously launched, colliding with and neutralizing Hydro Pump one after another.
With the low muffled sound of bang, bang, bang, one Shadow Ball after another dissipated, and the speed of Hydro Pump weakened. As time passed, until the seventh Shadow Ball, Hydro Pump completely dissipated.
This power
Terrances eyes lit up with keen interest. He didnt believe this Hydro Pump was something Castform had developed through its own training.
Even with the guidance and accumulated resources of a Trainer, achieving this level is still very difficult.
However, to most people, this wild Castform is merely a weak Pokmon pet. Yet, a single Hydro Pump showcased such power.
After breaking through Psybeam, it shattered seven Shadow Balls in succession before dissipating completely.
While its possible that Castform has a high level of proficiency with Hydro Pump undoubtedlythe rainy weather condition has provided Castform with an excellent opportunity to shine.
Meanwhile, three Shadow Balls flew towards Castform. Looking at them, Castform revealed a disdainful expression.
It could sense that the energy contained within the Shadow Balls was minimal, and this kind of energy would have little to no effect on it.
Just as the three Shadow Balls were about to descend, Castform suddenly transformed, reverting from its raindrop-like form to its gray-white body, and the raindrops in the sky ceased to fall.
[Author Note: In my setting, there is no such thing as absolute immunity. Ground types have strong resistance against Electric types, but its not zero effectiveness. If the disparity between them is too great, a Thunderbolt could potentially render a Ground type Pokmon unconscious.
This point is similar to how Normal-type or Fighting-type moves cannot hit Ghost-type Pokmon, but under a foresight state, they can hit them, indicating that such immunity isnt absolute, but a combination of factors such as inability to hit and weakened effect
We dont need to be too confined by the game. Most game settings are just for the diversification and rationalization of tactics. In novels, that would be more likely to produce bugs.]
