This trainer's Pokémon is too jumpy

Chapter 149 The Evolution and Degeneration of Pokémon

Although it looks very unsmiling, but after real contact, you will find that Dr. Yamanashi is actually just an ordinary old man with a sweet tooth.

The appearance of the other party peacefully coexisting with Xiaoxian's milk light speed and being one with each other greatly saved the disastrous impression left by his unreliable second-five-child ancestors on Zhou You.

After releasing Eden, Arthur, Leftovers, and Fairy Milk from the poke ball and letting them play freely in the research institute, Zhou Youhua took a while to learn about Dr. Yamanashi's research.

"Evolution" is a mysterious phenomenon that may occur in many Pokémon during the growth process, changing into another creature under certain conditions.

After this phenomenon occurs, not only the physical changes will occur, but also the knowable moves, racial abilities, and even attributes may undergo earth-shaking changes.

From the perspective of modern science, the "evolution" of Pokémon may actually be closer to a "metamorphosis".

According to Dr. Yamanashi's research and concepts, more than 90% of Pokémon in the world are related to evolution, so he speculates that "evolution" may be a form of Pokémon maturing.

Having said that, in fact, not all elves with an evolution chain can necessarily evolve into their final form.

Take the carp king that widely exists in major lakes and water bodies as an example. On the contrary, it is difficult for elves in nature to have the conditions to obtain stable evolution. Predation, self-defense, and territorial management have already occupied the vast majority of them. time.

Only the elves who live together with humans and can satisfy all kinds of conditions can evolve more easily.

"Evolution often starts with a strong bond with a human or a Pokémon's own desire to become stronger."

↑From the second episode of DP Collection, it is also the main point of view of scholars today.

However, the evolution of Pokémon has always been a phenomenon that humans have not yet explained, and even many evolutionary conditions that people have concluded still contain many inaccurate speculations.

For example:

As we all know, elves like Geng Gui evolved from Ghost Stone's communication exchange.

However, in fact, people have occasionally discovered that there are actually a certain number of wild Gengars in the wild. They are not beings that were evolved by trainers and then released, but are truly the products of natural evolution.

Another example is that Menas has two ways of evolution in the concept of human beings, namely, using energy cubes to increase charm and carrying beautiful scales to communicate and evolve. However, in nature, there are insulated from energy cubes and impossible to exchange Wild Menas.

Or although the data shows that Eevee can only evolve into Leaf Eevee and Ice Eevee when it grows near moss rocks and ice and snow rocks in some areas, in fact, there are trainers who use Leaf Stone and Ice Eevee under extremely rare circumstances. Shi succeeded in evolving their Eevee.

In addition, wild Picosi, Wind Speed ​​Dog, Elledo, Snow Fairy, and other elves that need evolution stones to evolve are also occasionally witnessed.

Although some of them are the result of accidentally obtaining the evolution stone, some of them are the evolution obtained by self-cultivation after a long life...

Perhaps, the evolutionary props such as evolutionary stones in the eyes of human beings are actually just a kind of "catalyst".

The more he studies the mysterious phenomenon of evolution, the more Dr. Yamanashi laments the magic of life like Pokémon.

Evolution, which is logically irreversible in the eyes of humans, has even been witnessed to be reversed under very special circumstances - that is, degeneration.

In the distant past, there was a legend that a Pippi evolved into a Picosi and then degenerated back into a Pippi.

※ "Happy Festival"

In the remote Alola region, it is said that a young trainer has a special rock dog that can repeatedly evolve/degenerate and switch between different forms of rockmane werewolves.

※"horizon"

Even in Pokémon's own lore, there is a legendary item called a "bond scarf" that can temporarily evolve them into their final form for a short period of time.

※ "Super Mysterious Labyrinth"

Evolution and degeneration, this miraculous phenomenon surrounding Pokémon has fascinated people since ancient times, and countless people have devoted themselves to this problem that cannot be completely solved.

Dr. Yamanashi is one of them.

In the past few decades, he has researched more than a dozen new evolutions of elves that were originally considered impossible to evolve.

In recent years, Dr. Yamanashi began to set his sights on those legendary Pokémon—does the legendary Pokémon also have an evolutionary chain?
If "evolution" means incomplete, then is there no possibility of new evolution for the legendary Pokémon that are already close to perfection, and then do they have an intermediate stage before evolution?

No one can answer Dr. Yamanashi. The reason why legendary Pokémon are called "legendary" is because they have almost never been tamed by humans.

There is no value in talking about "legendary Pokémon" without samples or only isolated evidence.

However, Zhou You's arrival has brought new light to Dr. Yamanashi's research.

"Hmm, so the truth is, as Dr. Oki said, you conquered the Frozen Bird not long ago?" When mentioning the research on the legendary Pokémon, Dr. Yamanashi suddenly changed the subject, "Can you release it and let it go?" Shall I take a look?"

"Of course it's fine, but..."

My frozen bird was killed by a giant sting wasp not long ago, and it is suffering from depression.

Zhou You sighed, although the phoenix flame can easily cure all injuries and diseases, but it can't control the spirit and psychology of the elves.

However, he still released the Frozen Bird from the Poké Ball.

The latter also gracefully collapsed on the ground as soon as he came out as usual, refusing to move at all.

I can only say that he is worthy of being a frozen bird, even Ge Youpara is so beautiful.

"It turns out that the legendary Pokémon, like ordinary elves, will suffer from depression due to low self-esteem." Dr. Yamanashi was amazed, "Can I touch it, it shouldn't attack humans casually, right?"

"Don't worry, it won't, it's too lazy to move." Zhou You explained.

Although the Frozen Bird would attack humans frantically (such as Xiaozhi) before this, but now it is self-defeating and begins to rot.

"Hmm... This mental state is not conducive to its health and communication. Qiaoqiao, have you thought about how to treat this frozen bird's depression?"

"I plan to let it fight more weak elves with restraint attributes, and slowly cultivate its self-confidence."

Zhou You thought for a while, and replied: "Then gradually let it fight with slightly stronger elves, and build up the confidence of Frozen Bird. After all, it has a strong power in itself, and the reason why it was defeated miserably is just luck." It's not good, and a little more time will always heal its psychological wounds."

After listening to Zhou You's thoughts, Dr. Yamanashi suggested: "In this case, why don't you try to put the frozen bird in the research institute and let a professional team of psychological counseling for elves heal it?"
