Chapter 232 Cute and Charming Villain! (seeking subscription)
Speaking of unpopular Pokémon...

Actually, Gu Miao didn't have much impression of them. She only remembered that there were a few Pokémon that were very low in popularity and existence, and almost no one knew them.

what?
You say it's impossible?Every Pokémon is an old acquaintance who is familiar to the players and can be called by name. Is it possible that they don't know each other?

Ha ha!

When there were only one or two hundred Pokémon in the early days, they might have known them all. After all, the number is not particularly large!

But in the later period, the number doubled, and when it approached thousands of Pokémon, except for a few "fanatic" fans who could fully understand it, no one else could do it.

no way!
There are really too many.

There are hundreds of Pokémon, and it is already very difficult to remember their appearance, not to mention the names of some Pokémon, which are difficult to remember.

And, more importantly...

Some unpopular Pokémon among the unpopular, many players may not have seen it for "many, many years".

The unpopularity is not without reason.

In Gu Miao's impression, the number of unpopular Pokémon is not particularly large, but it is not too small.Among them, the "Bug-type" Pokémon can definitely be called the unpopular hardest hit area.

Uh……

The reason for the unpopularity of the insect system is very complicated.

But in the final analysis, the official is still not paying enough attention to it. Vulcan Moth has indeed been popular for a while, but that cannot reverse the situation of "weak insect system".

There are no "face-to-face"-level Pokémon that can be sold, and the lack of combat strength. In addition, there are not many attributes that can be restrained by the insect system, so the decline is reasonable.

Of course, this also has something to do with animation.

Although there are "original" elements in the "Pokémon" series of animations, they are generally born out of the game itself, that is, the animations are adapted according to the content of the game.

The bug system is like that in the game, and it is very difficult to turn over in the animation.

Oh yes!

In addition to the insect type, the water attribute fish are actually quite unpopular, such as king catfish, giant winged flying fish, thousand needle fish, neon fish and so on.

all in all.

Among the hundreds of Pokémon, such popular Pokémon as Pikachu, Charmander, Bulbasaur, and Squirrel are only a few after all.

Most Pokémon are actually not very famous.The not very famous mentioned here refers to the "outside the circle" fame.

This is also a compromise!
Gu Miao can understand. After all, there are so many Pokémon in the original game. You can't expect every Pokémon to become a big star and be sought after by the whole world, right?

There has to be a priority.

The so-called primary and secondary refers to the focus of operations.That is, among the many Pokémon, select one or two representatives with cute images and special abilities, and focus on shaping and promoting them.

Hou Bin thought so too.

In the original version of 97, in the "Pokémon" TV animation, which is also called "Muyin" because there is no subtitle, the animation production team followed the game settings and selected four Pokémon as the "protagonists".

Which four Pokémon?
The answer is the first generation of Yusanjia, Squirrel Turtle, Frog Seed and Charmander, and by the way, a yellow-skinned electric mouse with some problems, which is Pikachu who was later called "Skin God" by thousands of fans.

That's right!

These four Pokémon are the first Pokémon to establish the status and image of animation in the original unprinted "Pokémon".

Among them, Pikachu has a special status.

Of course, there is no need to say much about the special features of the yellow leather electric mouse.After all, this guy is partnered with the male protagonist Xiaozhi, and is even known as the skin god of the [True Second Protagonist]!
what?
Pishen is so stubborn, is he just an invisible second protagonist?Who is the main character of the anime?

"Since you asked sincerely, I will tell you mercifully!"

"In order to prevent the world from being destroyed, to maintain world peace, to carry out love and true evil, cute and charming villains..."

"Meow~ that's it!"

The first protagonist of the animation must be Doubi... Oh no, it's Team Rocket trio!
Who is Xiao Chi?

Feel sorry!I'm so unfamiliar, don't rub it!

"Hahaha!"

Speaking of the Rockets, both Hou Bin and Gu Miao couldn't help laughing heartily. It was obvious that they really liked this villain group.

But this is also normal.

May I ask, who would refuse, Musashi and Kojiro, who love to talk and have a talking cat who always walk together?

of course!

In the Wanbao version of "Pokémon" animation, these two people must not be called by their original names.It is not difficult for the animation production team to come up with a localized name.

But meow, Xiaozhi can keep it.

Originally Xiaozhi had to change his name...

But Gu Miao felt that the name Xiaozhi entrusted many things, it was no longer a simple name, it might also represent a fond memory of "childhood".

So it was kept.

In fact, it's nothing. Names like Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia were originally "introduced" into China and translated by the mainland translation team.

Speaking of which, the name was very localized from the very beginning, so there is no need to worry about it.

But the place name is different...

97 Muyin chapter "Pokémon" animation, mainly tells the story of the novice Pokémon trainer Xiaozhi, with his partner Pikachu, traveling in the Kanto area, the Orange Islands, and the Johto area and challenging all kinds of powerful enemies.

said before.

Since Elf Studio was merged into Wanbao Game and moved to Jiangchuan headquarters collectively, the place name in the "Pokémon" game has changed to Jiangchuan area.

For this reason, Gu Miao was also collectively complained by the players, saying that he used his money-making ability to urgently apply for an "ID card" for Xiaozhi.

Well, rants are rants.

Changing the name of the place and making some localization changes will not affect the game experience.What's more, the only ones who know about this are those old players.

After Elf Studio joined Wanbao Games and launched the PC version and mobile game version of "Pokemon", the new players didn't know about it at all.

So, the impact is not very big.

The Kanto area was renamed the Jiangchuan area, and the Chengdu area naturally had to follow the localization trend and be changed to the Zhonghai area.

So Xiaozhi's travel route...

In fact, it started from a town called "Wanbao" in Jiangchuan, went to various places in Jiangchuan to challenge the gymnasiums, and after getting the badge, rushed to the Orange Islands, and then went to Zhonghai.

"it is good!"

Gu Miao clapped her hands and said happily, "Jiangchuan Boys swept the Zhonghai Alliance, I really like this plot."

"As a Zhonghai person, I feel offended..."

Hou Bin said resentfully: "By the way, there is already the Zhonghai region, will there be other regions in the future?"

"Yes, I have!"

Gu Miao took out her mobile phone, opened the built-in map software and said, "Look, after the incident in the Zhonghai area is over, Xiao Zhi can go to the next area, which is the Jiangsu and Zhejiang area to travel and challenge."

Travel all over the country, right?

Looking at this map, Hou Bin immediately stopped in Bengbu.
