Chapter 8 Why don't you just put a lid on it again? Squirtle is a land tortoise!
Looking at Ye Yinchuan, who seemed to be pondering and had a somewhat confused look in his eyes.
"You're right," he said with a smug smile. "How about it, host? This Squirtle stumped you? Or are you out of the script and don't know how to fool the audience?"
"Don't make a sound, I'm thinking."
Ye Yinchuan's brain was working at lightning speed, but he couldn't figure out the reason for a moment.
Seeing that the discussions in the live stream were beginning to turn into doubts, Ye Yinchuan could only try to stabilize the situation, so he put on a calm tone and said:
"Your Squirtle is rather mediocre overall. Whether it's its nature, moves, or individual values, it might not be well-suited for battles."
This is Ye Yinchuan's high EQ statement; in low EQ terms, it would be just average.
However, considering the Pokémon's feelings, even if it sees this as something you dislike, it won't be too harsh. At the very least, it will try to use language that the Pokémon can't understand.
Hearing such comments, I can only respond with a cold laugh:
"That's it? This is your assessment? Are you sure you didn't spot any other problems? If this is all you've got, I can't help but doubt your competence!"
Seeing that the confrontation was between you and your overbearing attitude, the live stream comments were temporarily divided into two camps.
A group of staunch supporters of Ye Yinchuan, such as Ms. Carrot and Nutrition Wool, watched the entire live stream from beginning to end and can be considered Ye Yinchuan's first wave of loyal fans.
The other group, mostly newcomers, expressed skepticism.
Indeed, what the streamer said was meaningless; can this really be considered Pokémon authentication?
[Haha! Forget it! Identifying Squirtle is really difficult. They all look pretty much the same. What's the catch?]
Faced with these questions, Ye Yinchuan remained unfazed:
"Then I'll be blunt: you, Squirtle, have hydrophobia!"
Upon hearing this, Gang Jiu Ni paused for a moment, somewhat incredulous, then burst into laughter, pointing at Ye Yinchuan with a very theatrical gesture:
"Hilarious! Squirtle has hydrophobia?! You must be kidding me! I misunderstood you! Turns out you're not a treasure-hunting streamer, you're a goofball streamer! Squirtle having hydrophobia is just ridiculous!"
The chat in the live stream exploded instantly—
[I laughed. Are streamers these days really this daring? Squirtle has hydrophobia? The Water-type Pokémon expert, Rendun, must be turning in his grave!]
[I'm speechless! I thought he was a pro, but he's just a bronze! Please, even if the streamer isn't good at judging character, he should at least know some common sense!]
[Host, you've disappointed me! How could you say such a thing! I really can't stand watching you utter such anti-intellectual remarks!]
Of course, a few fans defended Ye Yinchuan, but they were quickly drowned out by other comments.
Ms. Carrot: [I believe the host! Even a stinky flower can't smell! Why can't Squirtle be afraid of water!]
Nutritional Yarn: [I'm not an expert in this area, but I think it's possible for Squirtle to be afraid of water. If not, then disregard what I said, since I mentioned before that I'm not an expert!]
Spring is here and flowers are blooming: [People's current understanding and exploration of Pokémon is less than 20% complete; anything is possible!]
Ye Yinchuan knew that the live stream had already gained momentum, and its popularity had even reached new heights.
However, such a pace is undoubtedly a double-edged sword, and it is very likely to backfire, thereby losing the trust of a large number of viewers.
However, if they can successfully win the bid, they will easily gain a large number of loyal fans!
To be honest, if Ye Yinchuan didn't have the ability of the Treasure Appraisal Eye to see Squirtle's stats and information, he himself wouldn't believe that a Water-type Pokémon could have hydrophobia!
I was initially worried that I would be proven wrong and that I would have to give away a Masterball gift worth 1000 yuan.
But now, seeing Ye Yinchuan utter such outrageous remarks has completely reversed the public opinion in the live stream.
He couldn't help but feel secretly pleased, feeling that the situation was settled. He could say that he hadn't done anything at all; it was entirely the other side who had shot themselves in the foot!
After mocking him mercilessly, he looked forward to seeing embarrassment and panic on Ye Yinchuan's face.
Unfortunately, no.
No matter how much he mocked him, or how many comments targeted him in the live stream, Ye Yinchuan remained calm and even smiled slightly.
"Are you done talking? Have you laughed enough? It's my turn to speak now."
Seeing Ye Yinchuan's attitude, Gangjiu Ni Dui was greatly embarrassed and annoyed: "Fine! I'll see what kind of ivory can come out of a dog's mouth!"
Ye Yinchuan's expression turned slightly cold, and he snapped, "Shut your mouth! Who told you to speak so rudely! If you swear again, you'll be muted!"
The sudden reprimand left Gang Jiu Shi Ni Dui stunned. When did a small streamer with less than a hundred followers become so assertive?
"Okay, I won't swear, but the public has sharp eyes. I guarantee that if you keep talking nonsense, people will come to your live stream every day to hurl insults at you until you can't continue broadcasting!"
"Gang" means that when you know you're in the wrong, you immediately resort to the mass line and are determined to make this little anchor lose face!
"Aren't you wondering why your Squirtle can't seem to learn how to use a water gun? And why it always instinctively stretches its neck out?"
After a period of sorting out, Ye Yinchuan has gained some understanding of the current situation.
"How did you know!"
"You're right," he said, a look of surprise on his face. He opened his mouth slightly, but then immediately closed it again.
He is unwilling to admit and is trying to suppress Ye Yinchuan's appraisal ability, because if he admits it, it will prove that his previous statements were all a joke!
Ye Yinchuan smiled slightly, needing no further explanation; the other party's reaction had already said it all.
And those netizens watching the spectacle wouldn't miss a single detail—
[Hey! If the host hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have noticed! Look at this Squirtle, it seems to be stretching its neck the whole time!]
[Did the streamer just say something right? I'm arguing you're right. If you can prove the streamer wasn't wrong, then let it try using a water gun!]
[Huh? Really? Squirtle can't use a water gun? Is this Squirtle really afraid of water? Let's try it with a glass of water!]
Seeing these comments, Gang Jiu Shi Ni Dui panicked a bit and quickly retorted:
"My Squirtle is afraid of water? How come I didn't know that! It doesn't use a water gun, but that just means it's not very smart, it doesn't mean anything else! I usually keep it in the aquarium, how could it be afraid of water!"
As they talked, they started arguing that you were right and became quite assertive.
Yes, others may not know, but surely I know my own Squirtle well?
"Everything I've said is true. If you don't believe me, I can prove it to you!"
These words caused a huge stir, and the comments section took another turn for the worse.
Indeed, how could he not know whether someone's own Squirtle has hydrophobia?
There's no reason why Squirtle should be afraid of water! I own a Squirtle, and this Pokémon can't live without water!
[It's true that Squirtle can't learn to use a water gun, but that doesn't mean it's afraid of water. I think the streamer must have made a mistake!]
Even assuming this Squirtle is truly afraid of water, it should be dehydrated, but its skin is plump, though its shine is a little dull, it's definitely not dehydrated!
Even Ye Yinchuan's newly converted fans were starting to lose confidence—
Nutritional Yarn: [Don't tag me! I've already said I'm not an expert in this area!]
Spring is here and flowers are blooming: [Was the streamer really wrong? Streamers are human too, everyone should be forgiving! Hugs, hugs, hugs.jpg]
Only Ms. Carrot remained steadfast in her support: "I still believe in the streamer! His authentication skills can't be fake!"
Ye Yinchuan never expected that his first die-hard fan would be a female fan!
In addition, there were some bullet comments in the live stream:
I'm Not Chao Xiong: [Damn it, what's going on? One minute it's like this, the next it's like that, this livestream makes me want to punch someone!]
King in a hurry: [I want to know too! It's urgent, waiting online!]
"Take it to its usual aquarium."
Ye Yinchuan's expression shifted, and he voiced what the audience wanted to say.
He knew that he might soon find out why this Squirtle had developed hydrophobia.
It's pretty much a done deal; the problem lies precisely in your usual feeding practices!
All I could see was that you were right, and with Squirtle all of a sudden, I confidently led him to the aquarium where he was usually kept.
When you see the aquarium full of water, and the bar is right, just throw the Squirtle in.
Meanwhile, Squirtle was paddling frantically in the water, constantly stretching its neck and trying to get its nose out of the water...
Ye Yinchuan's face darkened.
The mystery is solved! Now we know why this Squirtle was afraid of water, lacked oxygen, and kept stretching its neck!
"Damn it, you big idiot Squirtle, what are you trying to do?! Why didn't you seal the aquarium too?! Squirtle's a land tortoise, for crying out loud!"
"You're right, I'm arguing with you," he said, his voice trembling with grievance as he was being harshly criticized, wearing a Leather God mask.
"Didn't we agree not to swear?"
