Chapter 580: The Ultimate Guardian
Gogoat had been learning a new move. It was a variant of \'Field control\', in which it would defend against multiple Pokemon attacks. The move would defend multiple Pokemons. It had been racking its brains to come up with this move but it was still not successful.
Creating a new move and having a certain degree of mastery over it in 3 weeks was very hard. However, Gogoat had been trying to create it for some time now. Axel had not given it any hints as he wanted to see how creative it really was but now time was not in his favor. So, he went towards Gogoat to tell what he was feeling about it.
"Gogoat, you know that you can defend with \'Field control\' as you can manipulate it. But it would consume a huge amount of stamina. So, that is not viable."
"Yes, that is why I am coming up with a new move that would reduce the stamina consumption while doing it."
"I know but you are thinking it the wrong way. If \'Field control\' which is a very high level takes such a huge amount of stamina, do you really think that even if you create a new move, it would consume low stamina?"
Gogoat was also thinking the same thing. That was why it was not able to come up with a new move.
"So, what do you really think that I should do?"
"We should create a new move. But the new move should have many restrictions. One of the reasons why \'Field control\' consumes so much stamina is due to its nature. The move is independent. If you have unlimited stamina, then you can do anything with it. You can attack, defend, raise your speed, and also help your allies.
I want you to create a new move that would only focus on defending your allies. Now, when it comes to defending, there are 2 things. Physical and special attacks. Which do you want to focus on?"
"Both of them."
"That is a good answer."
"I have a way for you to create this move. Now, when it comes to defending, if you really want to be the perfect guardian, then you need to learn multiple new moves to cover all the bases.
You will not be able to learn all of these in 3 weeks. So, first, you need to concentrate on 3 moves. \'Grassy terrain\', \'Field control\', and \'Grass domain\'. These 3 moves would help you in supporting your new defensive moves.
Next, you will only focus on the defending side of the \'Field control\'."
"You said that I need to learn multiple moves if I want to be the guardian. So, what are these moves? Do you have any idea?", asked Gogoat.
"There are a lot of things. Being a guardian, your responsibility is to keep you and your allies. That is your main concern. So, you will not only need to defend your allies but also act like a tank when it is needed.
You need to heal your allies when needed. You will need to boost their stats like speed or defense when needed. Are you getting my point?", asked Axel.
As per Axel\'s view, the guardian was the ultimate support character. If Gogoat wanted to become the ultimate guardian, it needed to do a lot of things.
After hearing Axel\'s view, Gogoat felt like its eyes had been opened, its brain started to work on the possibilities of what it could do and what it should do.
"Don\'t be tense about it right now. You need to calm down. You cannot accomplish everything in 3 weeks. First, we will create a new move that would defend allies and it would have an AOE effect. That is it.
I will station you to protect the young Pokemons. So, the wild Pokemons you would be facing would not be so powerful."
"But I am the guardian of the whole team.", said Gogoat.
"I know. But you cannot create multiple moves, master them, and then protect everyone in 3 weeks. That is just impossible. You must realize that you are very weak right now and then think of this as a setback. Then you need to start to remove your deficiency one by one."
"I will do it."
"I know. I trust you.", said Axel, and then went on to talk to Hector.
###
They need to have a good plan and since Axel was the leader of this tide, he needed to receive information.
Just as he was about to go to the office, Alakazam teleported towards him and said, "Axel, you need to talk with the leaders of the east and the west side of the forest."
"Can\'t I talk to them tomorrow? I have a lot of things to do."
"No, you need to go now. They are very restless. They said that if you want them to help you in the tide, then you need to see them now."
"Ok, let\'s get over it. Teleport me to them.", said Axel.
SWOOCH
SWOCH
SWOOCH
After multiple teleportations, they reached the meeting place. 3 king-rank Pokemons and 3 pseudo-king rank Pokemons were there waiting for them.
Slowbro and Poliwrath were the leaders of the east and the west sides of the forest respectively. Then there were Pidgeot, Machamp, and Ninetales. These were the sub-leaders, that supported them. Finally, there was another Slowbro who was a tier 2 king-rank Pokemon. This was the father of Slowemperor. It was the highest ranked Pokemon in the forest but it was not the leader of the forest. It didn\'t have any greed to become one.
"Axel, leader of humans. We meet again.", said Slowbro, the leader of the east side.
After Axel acquired the forest, 50% of Axel\'s talent was now also applicable to them. So, they also started to rank up very fast and now Slowbro and Poliwrath were in king rank.
Axel felt a bit awkward when he was addressed as leader of humans but for them, Axel was the leader of humans.
"Yes, it is nice to meet you too Slowbro. Now, let\'s start the meeting."
"Ok, how much help do you really want from us?"
"I have assessed the grade of this tide and it is on the easy side. Frankly, I don\'t need any help from you."
"Really? That is great. Then why are having this meeting?"
"I don\'t need any help from you to protect the humans but I want the help to protect yourself. The south side is connected to the east and the west side too. I fear that they would also attack east and the west side and if they completely overwhelm the east and the west side, they would come to the human settlement.
You just have to hold them off when they attack your side."
"Is that all? I don\'t expect them to attack us as they are angry with humans, not us."
"I know but I cannot take the risk. I will also station human soldiers to the east and the west side but they would be very few of them. If king rank Pokemons came here to fight, they would also help.
I just want you to cooperate with them. And if by any chance, the human side started to feel the pressure, I might ask your help. Don\'t worry, I will not ask for help from you or Poliwrath personally. Both of you are the leaders of the forest and you have your responsibility."
"That is acceptable."
Slowbro was very happy. I didn\'t want its family to be killed in the tide but since Axel had helped them so much, it was liable to help Axel too. It also knew that Axel was an exceptional trainer and also the successor of the Pokemon master.
So, going on the bad side of Axel would be very bad for it in the future. But now, it just had to defend its area only. It would happily do that.
###
After hearing a positive reply from Slowbro and Poliwrath, Axel felt that he didn\'t need to designate a lot of soldiers in the east and the west side. Axel had around 330k soldiers with him. He decided to designate 14k soldiers on the east side and 15k soldier on the west side. He would also designate 15k soldiers in the center and the rest of them would be in the south side. The north side was a human settlement and it was connected to other cities, so Axel didn\'t have to designate anyone there. He thought to designate 1k soldiers on the north side, just to be on the safe side.
Axel discussed his strategies with others and they approved. They were also happy that the Pokemon in the east and the west side would help them. There would be 285k soldiers on the south side and it was plenty for this tide.
Now, Axel was fully confident that they would defend this tide. It was now time to make plans to dominate this tide.
###
"5%. That is the most amount of deaths that I expect and I want that to happen.", said Axel.
That was still 16.5k soldiers but if one were to look at the grand scheme of things, the number was very low.
"Sir, I don\'t want to be rude, but that is a very small number. I don\'t think that we could achieve it.", said Liam.
He had experienced the tide before and normally, the deaths were at 50% on average. At most, the death would come down to 40%. But Axel was asking for only 5%.
"You don\'t need to worry Liam. Unlike others, we have set many traps. We also have help from Pokemons for the east and the west side. So, we only need to focus on the south side.
We also have something that would help us in aerial battle. I bought it from Venu family and finally, we have different teams for different purposes.
I didn\'t train you guys in team coordination as much as I have trained the mercenaries but that would be very helpful to us."
"What is the team battle, sir?"
"As of right now, we have 3 teams specified for a single purpose. They would also battle in various other scenarios but this would help us reduce the number of deaths.", said Axel.
"Sir, I really want to know about that. Can you explain to us?", asked Liam.
Axel looked at Hector and he stood up to present it further.
"The plan was made by Sir Axel. As of right now, we have 3 specified teams.
1. The sun team.
2. The protect team.
3. Grass team.
All these 3 teams have trained in specified moves to the limit and they would have a combined effect when used collectively.
Before I explain further about it, let me tell you the numbers of our members who are in these teams."
This plan was made by Axel long before and he had told Hector to apply it. The members of the mercenary were solely for the purpose of the tide. They had the right to fight in gym battles or even become the champion in the future but their first responsibility was the tide.
So, Axel had made some specific plans for the tide.
