my pokemon player.

After confirming that the relationship between the Bubble Teapot and Gyarados was still as close as before, Chen Yan finally felt relieved.

He came to the bubble teapot and praised sincerely:

"Thanks to you and Gyarados, if you hadn't defeated Team Rocket, we would have been in danger this time."

Bubble Teapot shook his head, smiled and said, "It has nothing to do with me. It's all Gyarados's fault."

"No, of course it has something to do with you. I guess the reason why Gyarados evolved is because he wanted to protect you."

Chen Yan turned his head to look at the Gyarados next to him, only to see that Gyarados had turned his head away embarrassedly, secretly observing the reaction of the bubble teapot with his peripheral vision.

Tsk tsk tsk, this Gyarados is quite tsundere.

"Really? Gyarados, thank you for your protection!"

Bubble Teapot hugged Gyarados with a look of surprise, making Gyarados' face blush with embarrassment.

"Hey, hey, although I really don't want to ruin this warm scene, can you please rescue us first and then communicate with us?" Xu Ruofeng shouted in the net.

Chen Yan glanced at Xu Ruofeng and the others, sighed and said:

"Ruofeng is stupid and can't think of saving himself, that's normal. How come you guys, Lao Ye, were also infected by him?"

"We've repelled Team Rocket, and the remote control that releases the electric current is also damaged. No one can shock you anymore. Can't you break through the net and get out by yourselves?"

Xu Ruofeng suddenly realized what was going on and said, "That's right, why didn't I think of that!"

After that, he looked at Lao Ye with suspicion: "Xiyue doesn't like to talk, Guoba is still entangled in the evolution of Magikarp, it's understandable that they didn't remind me, Lao Ye, why didn't you remind me, could it be that you..."

"I'm not! I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!"

Old Ye quickly denied it. He would never admit that his IQ was on the same level as Xu Ruofeng!

"Ah? Aren't you testing me?" Xu Ruofeng asked in surprise.

When Old Ye heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded hurriedly:

"Oh, yes, yes, I was just testing you. You figured it out. It seems like you've become a lot smarter recently."

"It's okay. I can't always rely on my looks to make a living. Now it seems that I also have the potential to become a strategy-oriented player!" Xu Ruofeng said complacently.

"Uh, let's go out first and talk about it."

Old Ye suppressed the urge to complain and began to change the subject.

Xu Ruofeng nodded without comment, and the two men immediately drew out their daggers and started cutting the net.

Since Meow Meow used inferior materials when making the capture net, the two of them quickly cut the net open and escaped from it.

As soon as Xu Ruofeng came out of the net, he ran to Gyarados and looked at this handsome Pokémon with shining eyes.

That’s right, although Gyarados’s ferocious appearance does not conform to Xu Ruofeng’s aesthetic, its powerful strength is enough to make up for everything.

According to Lord Ryan, this is called the beauty of intensity!

Now Xu Ruofeng has completely accepted this point of view. If his Gyarados can be as powerful as Gyarados after evolving, he can accept it even if it looks ugly!

But then again, the Clownfish is already pretty unique looking, so it shouldn't become even uglier after evolution.

Gyarados was somewhat uncomfortable with Xu Ruofeng's fanatical gaze, but it had a good impression of Xu Ruofeng.

If Xu Ruofeng had not been able to catch a Magikarp every day, it would not have been able to accumulate enough combat experience.

Moreover, Xu Ruofeng did not dislike it and often spoke up for it. Although there was something to do with Ugliano, Gyarados was still very grateful to Xu Ruofeng.

Compared with Xu Ruofeng, the other male human was more annoying. He would often persuade Pao Pao Teapot to release it.

Even though Gyarados knew that the other party was thinking about the Bubble Teapot, it still felt a little unhappy.

Therefore, when Lao Ye and others came to Gyarados to congratulate it on its evolution, Gyarados nodded to them one by one and deliberately left out the mixed grain rice crust.

Humph, you ignored me in the past, but now you can’t afford me!

However, Zaliang Guoba did not notice Gyarados's little thoughts. He was still thinking about the evolution of Magikarp.

"This doesn't make sense. Why can Magikarp evolve into Gyarados?"

The voice of Multi-Grain Guoba was not loud, but everyone and Pokémon present could hear what he said.

Gyarados was immediately displeased. It lowered its head and roared at the multi-grain rice crust:
"Roar!"

What do you mean? Why can't Magikarp evolve into Gyarados? Why do you look down on Magikarp?
After hearing Gyarados' roar, Zaliang Guoba also came to his senses. He quickly explained:

"No, I don't mean anything else. I'm happy for Bubble Teapot that Magikarp can evolve into a powerful Gyarados, but I just can't understand the relationship between Magikarp and Gyarados."

"What's so hard to understand? Haven't you heard of the legend of the carp leaping over the Dragon Gate?" Chen Yan responded.

"Of course I've heard of it, but what does this have to do with Magikarp? Hey, I understand. This is actually possible!"

After Chen Yan’s reminder, Mixed Grain Guoba figured out everything.

Old Ye also understood and said, "I see. It seems that when the game officials designed Pokémon and their evolutionary forms, they referred to legends in addition to real animals and plants."

"That's why they designed Magikarp to be so weak. Only in this way can it fit the legend of the carp turning into a dragon and being reborn."

"When you think about it, it's quite reasonable for Magikarp to evolve into Gyarados."

Xu Ruofeng interrupted, "Does it make sense? The carp leaps over the dragon gate to transform into a dragon, but Lord Ryan said that Gyarados doesn't have dragon attributes!"

"This"

Old Ye was suddenly speechless and didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only look at Chen Yan inquiringly.

Chen Yan smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know why Gyarados doesn't have dragon attributes. Maybe this is the game officials' bad taste."

"A Pokémon that looks like a dragon and has the word 'dragon' in its name doesn't have the dragon attribute, but a Pokémon like Buzzbat that doesn't look like a dragon has the dragon attribute."

Zaliang Guoba agreed with him, "The game officials are really naughty. Actually, the buzz bat is okay. At least the wings of a Western dragon are related to the wings of a bat."

"I'm afraid that the authorities will have too much fun and design attributes for Pokémon at random, such as giving a bird, a bug, or even a tree the attribute of a dragon."

Xu Ruofeng said in astonishment: "This is impossible. Birds and insects are fine, but what on earth is a tree?"

Grain Guoba shrugged and said, "Who knows if there are any legends of trees turning into dragons in other regions? Oh, and since Magikarp has already taken the spot of turning into a dragon, then your Ugly Fish can't possibly turn into a dragon, right?"

What he is most worried about now is the bet with Xu Ruofeng. If the ugly fish can also transform, he will be in big trouble.

"Let me think about it. The only fish that seems to be related to dragons in legends is carp."

Chen Yan pondered, and before Zaliang Guoba could raise his mouth, he changed the subject:
"But you must have heard the story of the ugly duckling turning into a white swan. Maybe the government gave the ugly fish this name on purpose."

Chen Yan didn't finish his words, but everyone present understood what he wanted to say. Xu Ruofeng's eyes were shining with anticipation and joy, while Miscellaneous Grain Guoba muttered anxiously:

"The game officials have already borrowed from the ancient legends of Xiaguo, and it is indeed possible that they designed Pokémon with reference to Western fairy tales."

"But the Ugly Fish is a fish, let alone a white swan. It has nothing to do with a duck!"

"That's impossible. How can a chou chou fish evolve into a white swan? That doesn't make sense."

Seeing that Multigrain Rice Crust had fallen into a trance again, Old Ye shook his head helplessly and then changed the subject:
"I guess we are the first players to know that Magikarp can evolve into Gyarados. If this news gets out, other players will go crazy. Lord Ryan will no longer have to worry about the problem of Magikarp overflowing in the artificial lake."

Gyarados's strength is obvious to all. Even if other players have not seen it with their own eyes, they have learned about Gyarados's power from their words.

Most players want to tame the mighty and domineering Gyarados, but due to their limited strength, they can only drool at it.

If players knew that Gyarados evolved from Magikarp, it would definitely trigger a craze to capture Magikarp.

After all, there are too many Magikarp and they are very weak, so they can be captured without Pokémon.

Once Magikarp is trained into Gyarados, the player's strength will increase dramatically. Which player would not be tempted?

Chen Yan also thought of this and then frowned.

After thinking for a moment, he explained to Old Ye and others:
"After you log off, please don't tell other players that Magikarp can evolve into Gyarados."

"Why?" Xu Ruofeng asked puzzledly. He was still thinking of using this news to show off in the group.

Chen Yan did not answer, but asked: "Which do you think is more, level 19 Magikarp or the three great families?"

"There are many Starter Gourami. I've seen quite a few, but I've only seen this one level 19 Magikarp." Xu Ruofeng replied.

Chen Yan nodded gently: "Yes, this is the answer."

"What you mean is that high-level Magikarp is too rare, and low-level Magikarp is difficult to upgrade. It is more difficult to train Magikarp into Gyarados than to tame the Three Starter Pokémons?" Old Ye said.

"Yes, there are countless Magikarp in the sea, but we have only encountered a few Gyarados these days. Doesn't this prove something?"

"It's not that easy to evolve Magikarp into Gyarados. Don't forget that Magikarp's evolution is based on the legend of the carp leaping over the dragon gate. Throughout history, how many carp have been able to successfully transform into dragons?" Chen Yan said seriously.

"To be honest, I saw one when I was a child!" Xu Ruofeng said, raising his hand.

"If you want to say something about little carp bubbles, shut your mouth!"

"Okay~"

Chen Yan rolled his eyes at Xu Ruofeng and continued:
"In short, according to my analysis, if Magikarp wants to evolve into Gyarados, it must be at least level 20, but in the current game environment, this condition is difficult to achieve."

"If players follow the trend and capture Magikarp, it will only hinder their own development, and there may be a phenomenon of Pokémon abandonment in the future."

"So I plan to write an article on the forum, listing these difficulties one by one, to prevent players from blindly following suit as much as possible. After I publish the article, it won't be too late for you to spread the news."

After listening to Chen Yan's explanation, Xu Ruofeng and others nodded in agreement with Chen Yan's ideas.

They are all veteran players, so naturally they have to take care of the newbies and prevent them from taking the wrong path.

As for whether the newcomers listen or not, that is none of their business. Anyway, they have done their best.

"Okay, let's continue healing the Pokémon. From the attack just now, we can see that the future Pokémon world is not very peaceful. Even villain organizations can go public!"

"We may encounter more enemies next, so we must restore the Pokémon to the point where they can perform basic battles before we set off."

Having said that, Chen Yan turned to look at Laplace:

"Laplace, can you still use your moves?"

"Boooo~"

Laplace nodded slightly, indicating that he could still hold on.

"Then use the Life Drops. Combined with the medicine, it can restore the Pokémon's condition faster." Chen Yan said softly.

"Boooo~"

Laplace hummed softly and sprayed water droplets containing life energy, restoring the status of all Pokémon present.

Players also took out good medicine to heal their Pokémon's injuries.

While Xu Ruofeng was spraying medicine on the dream demon, he kept muttering: "I hope I won't encounter the enemy again. I don't want to be caught again."

As soon as he finished speaking, the bushes not far away began to shake.

"You crow mouth, can you die of suffocation if you don't speak?"

Seeing this, Chen Yan first glared at Xu Ruofeng, and then ordered Laplace to prepare for battle.

He looked at the bushes with a serious expression and shouted:
"Who is it? I saw you, come out!"

The other players were also ready for battle, all staring intently at the bushes.

As they stared, a yellow figure rushed out and looked at them with its head tilted.

"Pikapi?"

Looking at the cute electric mouse in front of him, Xu Ruofeng breathed a sigh of relief:

"Oh my god, I got scared. It turned out to be Pikachu. I said we couldn't be so unlucky."

The other players also let down their guard, and Xiyue looked at Pikachu with loving eyes, wishing she could hold it in her arms and stroke it hard.

Only Chen Yan was still alert. He thought that this Pikachu was not afraid of people and might have been tamed by humans.

As expected, Pikachu was followed by a series of shouts:
"Pikachu, Pikachu, where have you gone?"

The sound was getting closer and closer, and the players present became nervous again.

It wasn't until the figure looking for Pikachu came out of the bushes that they were finally relieved.

What? It's just a child.

The black-haired boy wearing a baseball cap didn't seem to notice Chen Yan and the others, but picked up Pikachu by himself:

"Didn't we agree to act together? Why did you run away first?"

"Pika pika~"

Pikachu pointed at Chen Yan and others, indicating that there were other people here.

At this moment, the young man noticed the presence of Chen Yan and others. He quickly greeted them:

"Hello everyone, I'm Xiaozhi from Pallet Town, and my goal is to become the world's number one Pokémon Master!" (End of this chapter)
