Chapter 340 Marshadow and the Rainbow Trial
Chapter 340 Marshadow and the Rainbow Trial
Suddenly, a purple head peeked out from Ash's shadow.
It was Gengar.
Its usually smiling face was now filled with the words "wronged".
"Goblin!"
As soon as it came out, it started complaining, gesturing wildly and making expressive faces, as if it wanted to relive the experience it had just gone through.
Here's the thing.
It was living perfectly well in the shadows.
Comfortable, peaceful, and undisturbed.
The result was sudden!
A short guy popped in from the shadows!
This is not over yet.
After that short guy came in, another short guy followed behind him!
The colors are slightly different.
Those two short guys actually wanted to set up camp in its shadow!
Gengar got angry immediately.
How could I tolerate this? This is my shadow! My territory!
Then--
It rushed forward, ready to drive the two intruders out.
And then—
It appeared right here.
Gengar covered the spot where it had just been hit, looking at Ash pitifully with eyes that seemed to say, "You have to stand up for me!"
Li Luochen: "..."
"What's going on?"
Xiao Zhi blinked.
He looked at Gengar's pitiful face, then at its exaggerated gestures, trying to guess something from its movements.
but……
I couldn't understand it at all.
To him, Pokémon's language was just a bunch of "cheep cheep" sounds, and he had no idea what they were saying.
He turned to look at Xiao Mao.
Xiao Mao also looked completely bewildered.
"What did it say?" Ash asked.
Xiao Mao shook his head.
Immediately, the two looked at Li Luochen at the same time.
The only person on the field who could understand Pokémon was currently crossing his arms, a slight smile playing on his lips.
He looked down at Gengar, who was still accusing him, then looked up and met Ash's eyes, which were full of curiosity.
Li Luochen spoke up: "It said that it was living happily in your shadow. Suddenly, two short guys came in, and it thought they were there to take its territory, so it rushed up to try and drive them away. Then, it got beaten out."
Ash: "..."
Xiaomao: "..."
"Pikachu, Pikachu!"
Pikachu was laughing so hard it was rolling around on the floor.
"I don't know why you can translate so much from just a few words, Gengar, but you're so pitiful..."
Ash expressed his regret over Gengar's fate.
"Is that it?!"
Gengar was so angry it jumped up and down, pointing at Ash's shadow, then at itself, its expression so ferocious it seemed it wanted to reenact the seriousness of the situation:
"Hehehe!" (There are two tiny Pokémon living in your shadow, you know!)
Xiao Zhi still looked completely bewildered.
Li Luochen continued translating expressionlessly: "It said that two short Pokémon have moved into your shadow."
Ash: "Hmm..."
He froze for a full three seconds, then suddenly looked down at his own shadow!
There was nothing in the shadows.
But those two "shorty" guys are obviously still inside.
Ash slowly raised his head, his gaze returning to Gengar.
Gengar was looking at him with an expression that said, "You finally understand."
"That……"
Ash tentatively asked, "Gengar, do you have nowhere to stay? Do you have to go back to your Poké Ball?"
Gengar: "..."
It silently covered its face.
"Let me see."
Li Luochen crouched down, his gaze falling on the shadow beneath Xiaozhi's feet.
The shadow was quiet and still, showing no signs of anything unusual.
But he could sense that there were two faint auras hidden in that shadow.
He looked up and glanced around.
The training ground is a busy place, not the place to deal with this.
"Let's go back to our room first."
He stood up: "It's not convenient here."
"oh oh!"
Xiao Zhi nodded quickly and followed Li Luochen, jogging all the way back to his room.
......
......
The door closed.
The room fell silent.
Li Luochen crouched down again, staring into Xiaozhi's shadow, and slowly said, "Come out, hiding won't help."
The shadow remained still and silent, without any reaction.
Xiao Zhi scratched his head, looked down at his shadow, then looked up at Li Luochen, his face full of confusion: "Why aren't they coming out?"
Li Luochen withdrew his gaze and looked at Xiao Zhi: "Xiao Zhi, do you have the Rainbow Wing?"
Rainbow feathers.
Phoenix King's feathers.
Legend has it that one can summon the Phoenix King by going to the Azure Mountain at the end of the rainbow.
Xiao Zhi nodded upon hearing this: "Yes."
Li Luochen raised an eyebrow and held out his hand, saying, "Then take it out."
Although Xiao Zhi didn't understand what Li Luochen was doing, he still reached into his pocket and pulled out a feather.
The feather shimmered with iridescent light, sparkling brilliantly in the dim light of the room.
Just by holding it in your hand, you can feel a warm and sacred aura emanating from it.
The moment that feather appeared, Ash's shadow moved.
The once calm black area now rippled like water with a pebble thrown in.
Seeing this, Li Luochen also took out his rainbow feather from the system.
Two seven-colored feathers lit up at the same time, their lights reflecting off each other and illuminating the entire room as if it were daytime.
And that shadow was completely agitated!
Two heads slowly peeked out from the restless shadows.
They appear to grow out of the shadows, first as a blurry outline, then gradually solidifying.
They were two humanoid Pokémon made of smoky gray shadows.
Their faces are surrounded by a helmet-like structure.
At the top of the helmet, two curved horns extend to the sides, and between the two ears, there is a small horn.
The two are standing together; the one on the left is a normal gray-black, while the other is more of a bluish-yellow.
They emerged completely from the shadows, looking up at the two feathers that emitted a seven-colored light.
There's an indescribable longing.
Mythical Pokémon - Marshadow!
And there were two of them!
One of them was even a different color!
"As expected, it seems I was right."
Li Luochen nodded slightly.
The only Pokémon capable of stealing Gengar's shadow, and even defeating Gengar, is Marshado.
The reason Ash was able to attract Marshadow was naturally because of the Rainbow Wing.
but......
Why are both Marshadows running in Ash's shadow?
"Marsha." (Because of your shadow, I can't get inside.)
The bluish-yellow Marcia spoke up.
In fact.
It had been by Li Luochen's side for a long time.
However, Li Luochen's power was simply too extraordinary.
This prevented her from getting close to Li Luochen.
He had no choice but to settle for meeting his cousin instead.
Then, it slipped into Ash's shadow, which led to this misunderstanding.
"Marsha." (Now that you've seen me, it means you can proceed with the Rainbow Trial!)
