Chapter 329 - 329: Capture of Shellder!
The moment Sneasel, charged with Ice-type energy, received the command, three massive ice pillars fell between the pond and the river, blocking the Shellder from easily returning.
"Murkrow, Haunter! Use Hidden Power on the pond with all your strength. The rest of the Pokémon, cover every direction—don't let any Shellder escape. Let's try to capture them all at once!" Cain ordered.
Murkrow quickly formed a bright yellow sphere brimming with Electric-type energy.
Meanwhile, Haunter condensed a dark green sphere between its hands, representing the Plant-type power, equally capable of inflicting significant damage to the Shellder.
The Shellder, realizing they'd been trapped, desperately tried to leave the pond.
However, around the pond, Slowpoke, Sneasel, Skorupi, and Arbok were on guard. Each time a Shellder attempted to jump, it was knocked back into the water.
The levels of the Shellder varied. Some were stronger, around level thirty, while others were only in their teens. But without exception, they were all trapped in the small pond, unable to escape.
The Hidden Power energy soon materialized, and Murkrow and Haunter unleashed their attacks into the water.
In an instant, the yellow sphere exploded as it hit the water, and streams of blue and yellow electricity spread everywhere.
Since the Shellder were vulnerable to Electric-type attacks, and with the conductivity of the water, the impact they suffered was doubled.
Soon, some of the weaker Shellder floated to the surface, clearly unable to continue fighting.
