Chapter 354: Hospital Admission
During his inspection, he did come across a variety of firearms and hunting gear, but most of it was covered in dust, indicating they hadn't been used in a long time.
But then again, Motohara was a strong pseudo-Elite level Trainer; he didn't need such tools to capture Pokémon.
Before leaving, Yuga recalled his Vivillon and released Noctowl. He ordered Noctowl to demolish the entire underground chamber, burying this place of sin deep underground.
This included the Pokémon corpses that hadn't been dealt with.
He also shooed away the group of Spinarak that he had encountered earlier. They were young and only followed Motohara's commands, not reaching the level of obedience of the two Ariados.
When Yuga exited the underground chamber and returned to the stone house, he found that the Magnemite that had been hiding in the corners of the room had vanished.
Upon exiting the stone house, Yuga had Noctowl launch a few Air Slashes to demolish it entirely, and then he left the area with Noctowl.
As he walked away from the lakeside grassland, he noticed several dozen Fearows that had been dealt with by his Dragonair, still lying on the ground, yet to regain consciousness. He released them from their Pokeballs, effectively granting them their freedom.
These Fearows were all caught using Pokeballs that Yuga had found in the stone house. He had no use for them and had no intention of keeping these Fearows, so he decided to set them free.
Upon waking up and seeing Yuga, the Fearows immediately flew high into the sky, their eyes filled with fear. In their eyes, Yuga was no different from a formidable villain.
Observing the Fearows scatter and flee, Yuga shook his head, turned, and left with his Noctowl. Meanwhile, Wigglytuff was carried on Noctowl's back.
Yuga's departure from the Violet Glow Forest was effortless, thanks to the imposing aura of his Noctowl, which kept wild Pokemon at bay.
Once outside the Violet Glow Forest, he continued his journey on Route 118, making his way back to Mauville City.
With his flying mounts, the Great Dlygon and Dragonair, one heavily injured and the other bearing numerous battle scars, Yuga had no choice but to rely on his two legs to return.
Yuga was already injured, and his entire body was stained with blood, so when he finally entered Mauville City, he looked disheveled beyond recognition.
Many people mistook him for a Trainer who had returned from wilderness training and offered to escort him to the Pokémon Center.
Visiting the Pokémon Center was certainly on his agenda, but not right now. First, he needed to return to his Manor.
Politely declining the kind offers of passersby, Yuga quickly made his way to the Manor.
By the time he reached the Manor, it was already late in the day. Bellossom was anxiously waiting at the entrance, and when she saw Yuga covered in blood and looking disheveled, she was utterly shocked. She rushed over to support him.
"Thank you, Bellossom!" Yuga's current state left him utterly exhausted. Having walked a long distance, his legs felt almost unusable.
With Bellossom's help, he barely managed to stay on his feet.
Once inside the yard, Yuga promptly took a shower, changed into fresh clothes, and then issued some orders to Noctowl.
He intended to teleport all 18 of the Natus and the 17 mentally ill Pokémon back to YoYo Day Care right away, entrusting them to the Miltanks.
The condition of these 17 mentally ill Pokémon was far from ideal. They needed immediate treatment, considering they wouldn't be suitable for the Pokémon Center in their current state.
Yuga believed that the Miltanks could handle these Pokémon's issues efficiently.
After making all the necessary arrangements, Yuga called Suzuki Koen. He asked her to go to the Pokémon Center to collect the Poké Balls and then instructed Noctowl to transport these Poké Balls back to the Ecopark for placement.
Fortunately, there was a Trade Machine at the Manor, so Yuga didn't need to rush to the Pokémon Center.
After dealing with those Pokémon, Yuga was ready to take Wigglytuff and a few other injured Pokémon to the Pokémon Center for their treatment, and to tend to his own injuries as well.
However, at this moment, Ryuichi hurriedly arrived after receiving a message from Bellossom.
"Young Master Shimizu, are you okay?" Yuga had already cleaned himself up, removing all the dirt and blood, leaving him looking clean except for a slightly pale complexion.
Smiling, Yuga shook his head and said, "I'm fine, can't you see I'm perfectly fine?"
Seeing Yuga's pale face, Ryuichi was certain and said, "You're injured!"
Unable to hide it any longer, Yuga sighed and admitted, "Well, they are just minor injuries."
Ryuichi, noticing Yuga's discomfort, immediately grabbed his arm and began walking him outside. However, as he did, Yuga's injuries in his chest were exacerbated, causing him to inhale sharply in pain.
Seeing Yuga's reaction, Ryuichi anxiously said, "You said these were minor injuries! Look at how much they hurt."
Afterward, he quickly called a driver and had him wait at the Manor gate. Then, he dragged Yuga to the Pokémon Center.
While on the way and sitting in the car, Ryuichi asked Yuga, "How did you deal with that person named Motohara?"
Yuga smiled as he answered, "I handled everything."
Frowning, Ryuichi said, "That's good, but next time, don't be so reckless. Look at how you're injured now."
Seeing Yuga breaking into a cold sweat, Ryuichi knew that Yuga must be in more pain than he let on.
Yuga looked at his side at the still unconscious Wigglytuff and said with a smile, "I've been through some trouble, but it was all worth it."
Not only did he seek revenge, but he also found his mother Wigglytuff again. Yuga felt elated, but thinking about Grandbull still made him feel uncomfortable.
When they arrived at the Pokémon Center, Yuga and his Pokémon were promptly taken to the emergency room.
Perhaps due to the exhausting day he had, Yuga fell asleep without realizing it. When he opened his eyes again, it was already the next morning.
Taking a look around his hospital room and seeing himself wearing a patient's gown, Yuga realized he was in a bed at the Pokémon Center.
Feeling a bit thirsty, he was about to get up and pour a glass of water when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest.
At that moment, Ryuichi pushed the door open, and seeing Yuga awake, he exclaimed, "My little ancentor, you've finally woken up!"
Ryuichi placed the breakfast he was carrying on a nearby table and gently helped Yuga sit up.
Watching Yuga wincing in pain, he couldn't help but complain, "You said it wasn't a serious injury, but you've got two broken ribs and several areas of internal bleeding in your lungs. If it had been any worse, you might not have made it!"
Yuga smiled awkwardly and said, "I didn't pay much attention to it yesterday."
