Chapter 225 Becoming the Pirate King in the Pokémon World? Ladybug evolves into Ladybug, the Iron Fist of Star Power!
"You're too kind, honey. The streamer is doing the appraisal for free, so you don't need to cut back on your spending. When it comes to tipping, just do what you can afford."
Ye Yinchuan also came from a poor background. Although he has become a big streamer and earned a lot of money, he is not so greedy as to use information to extort and exploit his fans.
@SpringBlossoms: [I knew this streamer was good. I've watched him grow all this way. He said he'd offer free appraisals, and he meant it. Well done!]
Yes, I rarely tip streamers online, but Kirby Jianbao really deserves my tip, even if it's not much!
Ye Yinchuan was also pleased to see the reactions in the live chat.
Without hesitation, he revealed information about how Ladybug evolves into Ladybug and how it gains the Iron Fist ability.
"The Iron Fist trait increases the power of fist-type moves. The way to increase its probability of occurrence is not hard to figure out... that is to focus on the details of the fist."
"Perfect timing, since you're about to evolve, I'll give you some on-the-spot guidance today. Go get a bucket of gravel or some coarse sandpaper."
Ye Yinchuan paused slightly at this point.
Could it be that the way to increase the probability of evolving an Iron Fist ability is to hone one's fists?
"Doesn't that hurt a lot?"
At this moment, some people already guessed what the anchor was going to say.
Ye Yinchuan had no intention of keeping it a secret, so it was only natural that he guessed it.
"Let me make this clear first, this method requires Pokémon to endure a certain amount of pain, and it's not 100% successful... Your Ladybug is inherently timid and cowardly, doubly lacking in courage, so whether it has the determination and your guidance as its trainer are extremely important..."
"Remember the most important principle regarding Pokémon: respect."
Ye Yinchuan emphasized, "If your ladybug doesn't have this determination, if you don't have this confidence, then this online connection ends here, there's no need to continue. But if you do, then do as I say. You are the ladybug's owner, and I believe you should understand this even better."
Upon hearing this, the person on the other end of the line also became serious; he had to seriously consider this issue.
However, he is confident.
"Host, my ladybug is afraid of many things, but it has persevered in every training session. It is afraid of hardship, fatigue, and pain, but it is even more afraid of falling behind everyone and being unable to fight alongside me."
The person on the other end of the line said, holding the ladybug in their arms:
"Ladybug, are you willing to endure the hardship of sharpening your hands with broken stones? No... you don't just have two hands, you might have six!"
I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't be laughing at this moment, but Six Hands is just too funny...
[The bottom two will probably evolve into legs, right? Are they not going to let those go either?]
Does he really love Pokémon? If it were me, I definitely wouldn't be able to bring myself to do it!
Hmm...it depends on the Pokémon's wishes. Some Pokémon even want their trainers to whip them to get stronger. What do you say about that? Simply spoiling and pampering them isn't necessarily for their own good! Don't forget, Pokémon have an inherent instinct to strive for power!
Looking at the comments, Ye Yinchuan nodded.
This method of pursuing unique features is indeed a bit "cruel," so he was under pressure when he announced it.
After all, there are bound to be some unscrupulous people who force their Pokémon to endure such pain in order to make their Pokémon stronger, because they have always treated Pokémon as tools for pursuing their own interests!
Thinking of this, Ye Yinchuan emphasized repeatedly:
"The method I'm about to use must be done with the Pokémon's consent; otherwise, it would constitute the crime of Pokémon abuse, and I believe the Pokémon Protection Bureau will not ignore it!"
Furthermore, I must tell you that Iron Fist isn't just about honing your fists; it's also about honing your will. If a Pokémon doesn't have the initiative and the will to throw that Iron Fist, it can't acquire this ability, and the result is just a waste of time, effort, and money!
At this moment, some Dream Protection Bureau staff sitting at their desks, reading what Ye Yinchuan said, couldn't help but feel immense pressure, because what Ye Yinchuan could consider, they could consider even more thoroughly...
Therefore, they breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing Ye Yinchuan's last words.
Crime also involves a cost-benefit analysis. The higher the cost of crime and the lower the profit, the fewer people will commit crimes...
"This streamer is both wild and steady, what's going on?!"
A high-ranking official from the Dream Protection Bureau couldn't help but slam his hand on the table, causing the thermos on the table to jump playfully.
The phrase "浪" (làng) refers to Ye Yinchuan's daily livestreams, during which he would reveal all sorts of shocking information, causing some ordinary Pokémon to suddenly acquire value. However, as the saying goes, "A man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime," and with the buying and selling of these treasures, harm inevitably follows...
The word "steady" refers to Ye Yinchuan's consistent promotion of positive values regarding Pokémon, as well as his emphasis on certain information to discourage malicious individuals from harboring evil intentions.
It can be said that the streamer Snorlax is becoming increasingly famous in both the Pokémon Protection Bureau and the Pokémon Center, and is receiving more and more attention from leaders. Some people both love and hate him.
"Host, do you think that I and the ladybug meet the conditions you stated?"
The person connecting to the video was holding a ladybug, seemingly having mentally prepared themselves.
Ye Yinchuan simply said:
"There's only hope. Sometimes you can't judge a person by what they say, but by what they do. Maybe you think the ladybug is ready, but when it actually faces sharp rocks, will it really have the courage to strike hard? Or, when you see the ladybug's fists bleeding, can you still suppress your inner pain and protective instincts?"
[Wow, the streamer's thinking is so clear!]
That makes so much sense. When it really comes down to it, no one can be sure what they're thinking... It's like how a cowardly person might rise up in resistance, while a brave person might become a deserter!
The person on the other end of the line understood Ye Yinchuan's meaning, but for now, all he could do was give it a try.
"Don't forget to prepare wound medicine."
Ye Yinchuan reminded him.
Because when I used the Shadow of the Overlord to train Litten, I wasn't prepared enough, which resulted in Litten getting injured but not receiving the most effective treatment immediately.
The heartache and self-blame he felt at that time are still vivid in his mind.
So here's the question: Did the streamer say "Prepare—healing potions" or "Prepare—good healing potions"?
Upon seeing this comment, Ye Yinchuan almost spat out his water.
"Either is fine, it depends on your circumstances! Although sharpening your fists with gravel will hurt a lot and cause a lot of blood, it's mostly superficial wounds and won't damage bones or tendons. Buying wound medicine is just to minimize the ladybug's suffering..."
Soon, the contact brought over a bucket of broken stones and a bag of good medicine.
"Ladybug, let's begin."
At first, the ladybug hesitated, tentatively sticking its fist into the bucket of gravel. Feeling the sharpness and keenness of the stones, it naturally became afraid and retreated.
The key to breaking this stalemate was that the person connecting the lines punched the bucket of rubble with his left fist, then his right fist, and then his right fist. Instantly, his hands came out covered in blood, with broken stone fragments stuck in the cuts and scrapes, making people gasp in horror.
[Dude, are you serious? You want to train Iron Fist traits too?]
Wait a minute, aren't you worried about the possibility of shared diseases between humans and Pokémon?
[This is a true trainer, standing shoulder to shoulder with Pokémon. Thumbs up!]
The live stream chat was abuzz with discussion about the person's incredible feat.
Ye Yinchuan was also surprised, because ordinary people simply couldn't do that.
All living things have the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm, but humans are more fragile than Pokémon and their injuries are harder to heal.
Even if the ladybug did the same thing, it's like the ladybug had 10,000 yuan and took out 5,000 yuan, while the person connecting to the network only had 5,000 yuan and took out 5,000 yuan!
Ye Yinchuan was slightly moved by the person who made the connection, and he expressed his opinion:
"Family members, this is not something you should imitate! It's too impulsive, please don't do it! Quickly apply some medicine to the wound, young man!"
But the liaison's "leading by example" approach was very effective. His blood seemed to have dyed the ladybug's eyes red, and the ladybug immediately threw punch after punch, smashing into the rubble bucket.
At the same time, the ladybug also radiated the light of evolution!
The ladybug, which was already on the verge of evolution, suddenly triggered the start of its evolution due to its injury and psychological trauma!
"Please don't do this! Please don't do this! There are some diseases that can be shared between Pokémon and humans. Doing this is extremely unhygienic! If you absolutely must do this, remember to use two buckets!"
Seeing the blood of the ladybug and the linker mixed together, Ye Yinchuan felt no excitement, only disgust...
If viruses and bacteria are transmitted between them, it would be a great loss.
However, since the deed has already been done and the ladybug has begun its evolution, Ye Yinchuan can only emphasize the importance of waiting and seeing how things unfold.
Amidst the light, the ladybug continued its punches at the bucket of rubble.
The once bloody wound was now obscured by the light...
The ladybug's body has become noticeably larger, and its outline and limbs are more slender compared to before its evolution. The wings that originally covered its body like a round shell are now spread out backward, clearly indicating that it has a more powerful flight ability...
As the light faded, the ladybug before them had transformed into an angel ladybug, and its wounds had almost completely healed...
Compared to ladybugs, the eyes of the 'Antler' lack the distinction between pupil and sclera, appearing as if they are integrated into one, and are more closely integrated with the head. Its antennae are longer, and a black dot can be seen in the middle of the antennae...
Originally six white fists, the pair below now resembled feet wearing red shoes...
It is said that ladybugs use starlight as energy, and the patterns on their backs become larger when there are more stars in the sky.
However, it's still broad daylight, so we can't see any changes yet.
Ye Yinchuan also thought of the description of the ladybug in the illustrated guide...
In a way, the Ladybug's prestige shouldn't be low, after all, it can convert starlight into energy. Perhaps, if the Ladybug has a subsequent evolutionary form, it might really be very strong.
Some clues can be gleaned from the moves it can learn, such as Psychic-type moves like Light Screen and Reflect.
"Great! Ladybug, you really evolved into Ladybug! Host, can you check if we succeeded? What are Ladybug's characteristics?"
Ye Yinchuan glanced at An Piaochong's fist and hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
Because this characteristic is actually quite obvious, he even suspected that the contact was in Versailles.
A flawless version after careful inspection!
The ladybug's four fists shimmered with a metallic sheen...
Isn't it obvious? That fist...
[Damn it, he actually managed to pull it off, Iron Fist and Ladybug!]
Although everyone could see it, Ye Yinchuan still spoke up and confirmed the results of the appraisal.
"That's the Iron Fist trait, congratulations."
"Hey streamer, look..."
The person on the live stream pointed the camera at the bucket of gravel. The entire bucket was twisted and deformed, and the gravel inside had been completely smashed to pieces by fists. You could even see the fist marks left by ladybugs.
"You call this weak? If that ladybug punched me, I might die!"
[This... Bug-type Pokémon aren't weak! It's just that the other Pokémon are too strong!]
[Why do I feel like any Pokémon can become very strong under the streamer's guidance?]
While the less astute are still lamenting, the wise have already begun stockpiling ladybug eggs!
[Upstairs, you're overthinking it. The Iron Fist ability isn't that easy to trigger.]
After finishing his remarks, Ye Yinchuan hurriedly ended the call amidst the thank-yous of the person on the other end.
"Please, everyone, do not imitate this, thank you. Even if you have a Ladybug with the timid trait, do not try to imitate it yourself. Please seek guidance from professionals. I only provided this solution because I could tell this Ladybug was about to evolve... Also, please don't be like the person who just connected—it was far too reckless and careless!"
As for the arguments against blindly following the trend of raising Pokémon, those are all old news.
[Host, you think too highly of me! I'm afraid of pain!]
Forget it, if you have a bit more resources, I'd still recommend the starter three; they're the safest bet!
[Yes, Ironfist Ladybug is good at fighting, but compared to Charizard and the like... it's still a bit lacking!]
Seeing that the audience was all clear-headed and rational, Ye Yinchuan felt relieved.
The starter Pokémon are indeed the popular choice. Although it is not easy to raise them to their final form, the transition is smooth and the upper limit of their final strength is not low!
Um... the general public here refers to those with some economic means.
After all, while it's possible to sell the eggs of the starter Pokémon even if it's a tough deal, the subsequent breeding costs are astronomical...
Buying an egg might only cost two or three thousand, but getting a minor, hard-to-treat illness could cost four or five thousand. That's reasonable, isn't it?
"Family members, this is the last live stream, so show off your favorites!"
Ye Yinchuan continued selecting suitable people to connect with, preparing to conclude the afternoon's live broadcast.
@ExplorerR:
[Host, my expedition team and I have discovered a deserted island and found some very special Pokémon that few people seem to know about. Could you help us identify them? As a reward, we will pay you a generous sum!]
Seeing this comment, Ye Yinchuan perked up.
A deserted island? Some special Pokémon?
That's where things get interesting.
In general, common Pokémon are those that are well-known to the public and can be seen everywhere.
Unless there are some special individuals, it's difficult to create a significant program effect.
However, if it's a deserted island with a Pokémon that seems to have yet to be discovered, then it would undoubtedly be novel for the viewers in the live stream.
However, Ye Yinchuan also developed some curiosity about this "Explorer R":
"A team? A deserted island? This Chinese language sounds so unfamiliar... Are you some big shot in the industry, a professional team?"
Professional trainers and explorers typically venture into undeveloped areas of known wilderness regions, often operating alone or in small teams.
However, the fact that they call themselves a team suggests that, if they are not exaggerating, their size is quite large.
It's still a deserted island...
Uninhabited islands are basically located somewhere in the ocean.
It's important to know that the ocean itself is one of the highest-level and most mysterious wilderness areas, containing vast regions untouched by humans, numerous natural treasures, and even many unknown Pokémon yet to be discovered by humankind...
Thinking of this, Ye Yinchuan suddenly had a brilliant idea: what if he became the Pirate King in the Pokémon world?
Perhaps, in the future, he could become an outdoor streamer, exploring some sea area, uninhabited island, or even the deep sea, bringing viewers more novel program effects and live streaming experiences... That seems like a good idea, doesn't it?
"I've decided on you."
Ye Yinchuan made a decision.
[You have approved user "Explorer R's" connection request!]
[Connection successful!]
With the prompt, a live feed appeared before his eyes, revealing that he was still on a lush, deserted island. As far as the eye could see, there was only the blue sea and sky, and the primeval jungle. Apart from a large ship docked on the shore, the person connected to the feed, and his companions, there was no trace of modernity to be seen...
Good grief, it really is a deserted island?
[Such a huge ship? Wait a minute, wasn't that just a Blastoise? I think I also saw a Dragonite... They're incredibly powerful!]
Even without Ye Yinchuan's explanation, the audience realized how incredibly awesome the person he was connecting with was.
When Ye Yinchuan saw the coastline and ships, he couldn't help but think of the Pokémon Horizon anime, which seemed to feature many nautical storylines...
Now that you mention it, it seems like we're actually sailing in the Pokémon universe, right?
"Hello host, I'm Explorer R, you can call me R."
The person speaking was dressed in a smart uniform; even if he wasn't the captain, he was certainly a senior member of the crew.
While everyone else was working, he was livestreaming, which revealed something about him.
Ye Yinchuan would not be intimidated by the other party's strength or status and become timid and submissive.
He spoke directly:
"I'm Chinese, and I'm not used to speaking foreign languages. Could you please use a different form of address?"
The other person was taken aback for a moment, then replied, "Okay...you can call me Xiao Ran."
"Okay, Ran, from what you're saying, there are special Pokémon on the island, and more than one?"
"Yes, streamer. Regarding the reward... if you help us identify one, I'll immediately give you ten Master Balls as a reward, how about that?"
Wow! That's incredibly extravagant!
[How many are there exactly? No… he means, special Pokémon that have formed a species, so he's using "a species" to describe them!]
