Chapter 396: Invisible when wet, cries when scared, possesses powerful abilities.
Chapter 396 It becomes invisible when wet, cries when scared, and comes with its own powerful tear gas? Hey, uncle, let it go!
This Pokémon, like most Water-type Pokémon, has light blue skin and a round head. At first glance, it looks similar to Poliwag, but unlike Poliwag, whose head and body are connected...
This Pokémon is quite different. Its round head is smaller, connected to a small body and a large, curled tail. On top of its head, there is a yellow fin that looks like a feather.
Its eyes are as watery as those of a wakame, and around its eyes, there's a line separating the skin on its head and face, making it look like a fringe...
Below its eyes are dark blue dots that look like cheek pouches. There is also a larger blue dot in the middle of its curled tail, or at the end of its tail, creating a visual echo.
What Ye Yinchuan found quite interesting was that the Pokémon's hands and feet looked like long little strips of meat, and you couldn't even see the differentiation of fingers. If you had to say there were any, they would be two fingers or toes. Because it didn't have claws or teeth, it gave people a harmless and approachable feeling.
"Did you guys see that Pokémon?"
Ye Yinchuan held up the camera and showed it to the audience.
Which Pokémon? Are you referring to the Vaporeon on the reef?
Or are you referring to those sun corals?
There are so many Pokémon around here, streamer, we don't know which one you're talking about!
Ye Yinchuan was slightly taken aback when the audience didn't spot the Pokémon, but he wasn't too surprised.
"I almost forgot, this Pokémon has the ability to hide itself. Once it comes into contact with water, its body color and patterns will automatically blend into the environment, making it seem like it's invisible. It can only be clearly seen from certain angles or when it moves."
Ye Yinchuan spoke to himself, as if explaining to the audience.
In this respect, it is similar to the Invisible Rockruff that Ye Yinchuan just captured last time.
However, after several days of adjustments by Ye Yinchuan, the "Invisible Crystal" Rock Dog has gradually learned to control its invisibility. Otherwise, even if Ye Yinchuan could easily see the Rock Dog with his excellent eyesight, it would be very inconvenient at other times...
After all, even disregarding the effects of the live stream and the sightseeing of tourists in the park, that invisible Rockruff still needs to interact with Ye Yinchuan's other Pokémon daily, and even cooperate in battles. It's impossible for it to be completely marginalized just because it's invisible.
Although the other party cannot yet fully control his invisibility, Ye Yinchuan believes it is only a matter of time.
Wow, it's this Pokémon!
[Sobbing Lizard! Although it's part of the starter family, catching wild Sobbing Lizards during their Sobbing stage is extremely difficult, and it's also one of the rarer starter species!]
However, I've heard that this Pokémon is extremely timid. If it gets frightened or encounters an enemy, it will start crying and then disappear, leaving many young trainers bewildered!
Ye Yinchuan adjusted the angle slightly and finally found a suitable angle so that the audience could see the teardrop lizard. Although it wasn't very clear, it was enough.
It's clear that Pokémon, as one of the starter Pokémon, still enjoy a certain level of recognition among the general public.
But Sobble, although it's a Water-type Pokémon, seems to live mostly in forests and swamps, right?
[They become invisible as soon as they come into contact with water. Isn't that a bit too much of a cheat in the ocean?]
At this moment, some comments in the live chat caught Ye Yinchuan's attention. Indeed, Sobble's egg group is both aquatic and terrestrial, which means it is an amphibian Pokémon. This kind of Pokémon will not live solely in water or on land.
As for whether they can survive and live in the ocean for a long time, Ye Yinchuan wasn't sure, but the teardrop lizard in front of him was a living example.
Ye Yinchuan checked the teardrop lizard's data panel and mental state, confirming that the teardrop lizard did not seem to be experiencing much discomfort while soaking in seawater.
For a moment, he was a little worried. The skin of the teardrop lizard was so delicate; could it adapt to the high salinity of the seawater? But then he thought about it carefully. The teardrop lizard loves to cry, and tears are salty, aren't they? It can replenish its salt in the sea, which is great!
At this moment, Ye Yinchuan had already quietly taken out a Poké Ball.
There's no way around it, he just loves Pokémon and can't control himself. If you love Pokémon, you want to possess them. Ever since he opened "Pokémon Paradise," Ye Yinchuan has become increasingly capricious about catching Pokémon, since it's not like he's being irresponsible.
"Should we wait and see if there's anything better?"
Ye Yinchuan was ready to make his move, but hesitated. Given his personality, once he subdued an animal, he wouldn't release it unless there were special circumstances. He wouldn't release the original one just because he saw a better one...
The main point is that, for him, even ordinary Pokémon can be trained into powerful Pokémon.
When it comes to catching Pokémon, he doesn't want to repeat himself too much, unless they are truly unique, like Little Drunkard and Little Apocalypse, as well as the two Razorpteros, Yellow and Red.
Just as Ye Yinchuan hesitated, another passing Pokémon trainer seemed to spot the Sobble and excitedly ran over, sending out two Pokémon—one to block its path and the other to challenge it—intending to capture it through battle…
[What are you waiting for, host? Hesitation means defeat!]
[They even took out their Poké Balls and caught it right in front of you, how can you tolerate that?]
What's the difference between this and a husband committing a crime before his wife's death?
The viewers in the live chat witnessed all of this and started spouting nonsense.
"It's nothing, just a teardrop lizard. It's not like I'm already trying to catch it. Others are just trying to steal it. I'll show you the show."
Ye Yinchuan's open-mindedness and the fact that he encountered the tearful lizard were fate, while his own hesitation and the fact that someone else "beat him to it," indicate that he and the tearful lizard were destined to meet but not to be together.
At this moment, his gaze also fell on the trainer who planned to capture Sobble, and the two Pokémon.
The man looked like a middle-aged man. His clothes were exquisite and neat, and even his hair was well-groomed, giving him a professional and gentlemanly air.
His two Pokémon, while not particularly unique, are both evolved forms of Eevee: Vaporeon and Jolteon, which are considered relatively "high-end" and well-known Pokémon.
Vaporeon manipulated the water to block Sobble's path, while Jolteon crackled with lightning and uttered a challenging cry, declaring its intention to defeat Sobble...
"Using such a high-level Pokémon to deal with a Sobble seems a bit too much, doesn't it?"
For a fleeting moment, Ye Yinchuan had this thought in his mind, but he couldn't expect all trainers to have Pokémon of various forms and levels like him. Besides, he sometimes used high-level Pokémon to fight low-level Pokémon, and as long as he held back, there was no problem.
At this moment, the middle-aged man naturally noticed Ye Yinchuan's presence, or rather, he had already discovered that the latter was watching this place and thus discovered the tearful lizard, but he was the one who made the first move.
This young wild Pokémon still has many admirers, not only because wild Sobble is rare, but more importantly, because a significant number of people believe that wild Pokémon possess a resilience and natural power that captive-bred Pokémon lack...
This is similar to how wild seafood is more expensive than regular seafood.
On the other hand, if a wild Pokémon is of a high level, it is easily judged as difficult to raise or as having lost its potential, which is another matter.
"I need to subdue him as soon as possible, lest this young man become dissatisfied and try to compete with me..."
The middle-aged trainer narrowed his eyes:
"Rayle, use Thunderbolt! End the battle quickly!"
With the trainer's command, Jolteon delivered an electric shock, and Sobble was clearly unable to withstand it. Its body was charred and smoking, and it lay on the reef, looking like it was on the verge of death.
【What a cruel attack! 】
[This Jolteon is way too high-level! It really doesn't know its own strength; a slight touch would have been enough!]
[Tsk tsk, poor tear-eyed lizard, it would have been better if it had fallen into the hands of the streamer!]
Upon seeing the last comment, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but twitch his eyelids a few times. What, is falling into the hands of this streamer such a terrible thing?
However, he also sensed something unusual. Normally, Pokémon have a sense of compassion for each other, but this Jolteon was so ruthless. Perhaps its usual upbringing... is a bit problematic?
At this moment, Ye Yinchuan had to re-evaluate this seemingly refined and harmless middle-aged trainer.
[Streamer, isn't this considered Pokémon abuse? Aren't you going to do anything about it?]
When asked about the questions in the live chat, Ye Yinchuan simply waved his hand, telling the audience to be patient.
After all, catching Pokémon inherently involves battling, or even the use of violence, which is permitted by the rules...
Just because you're a streamer or have a lot of fans doesn't mean you can go around acting as a judge or police officer in the Pokémon world.
Seeing that Sobble was becoming very weak, the middle-aged trainer smirked and threw out a Poké Ball.
However, the Sobble suddenly flicked its head, knocking the Poké Ball away. The Poké Ball struck the sharp edge of the reef at just the right angle, causing some minor damage...
"You rascal, don't you dare refuse a polite offer only to be forced to drink a forfeit!"
The middle-aged trainer's eyes changed, and he suddenly looked fierce.
While the damage to a Poké Ball was nothing to him, the fact that a tiny Sobble dared to resist his capture was a direct challenge to his authority.
Thinking of this, the middle-aged trainer was furious and actually walked up to grab the teardrop lizard.
The tearful lizard also used its signature move, "teary-eyed," and immediately began to cry. The exaggerated tears looked like pearls gathering and hanging down from its eyes…
Its tears contain a powerful tear-inducing ingredient, so when it cries, it's like throwing a tear gas canister around it. For a moment, the middle-aged trainer, Jolteon, and Vaporeon couldn't help but shed tears in the wind, which looked particularly comical.
Ye Yinchuan had already instructed the Wind Fairy to prepare, using "Fairy Wind" to blow the tear-inducing air to the other side, so he wasn't affected much.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
The middle-aged trainer couldn't stop the tears from flowing. He was extremely angry to have lost face in front of a young trainer he considered a novice.
He grabbed the teardrop lizard's fin, lifted it up, and swung it violently. The teardrop lizard was terrified, feeling that humans were too scary.
"Hey! Uncle, let go of that teardrop lizard... I've been putting up with you for ages!"
Ye Yinchuan's eyes held a hint of anger, but he remained rational and calm, not letting anger cloud his judgment.
At this moment, the barrage of comments flew by.
Is the streamer finally going to make a move?
[I could tell at a glance that this guy was no good; he's a complete scoundrel!]
[He's not even pretending anymore, which is a good thing, otherwise the streamer would have been fooled!]
[I've heard of road rage, but I've never heard of getting angry just from failing to catch a Pokémon!]
The middle-aged trainer clearly hadn't expected this young trainer to dare provoke him. He turned to look at Ye Yinchuan in disbelief, his expression dark and threatening.
"Are you talking to me? You want me to let go? Who are you?"
[Haha, does this guy not use the internet? He doesn't even know about Kirby's Recognition or Ho-Oh's endorsement?]
Not everyone watches live streams, especially professional trainers who might spend a year or more in a particular wilderness area without internet access!
Although he really wanted to answer "I'm the news anchor," Ye Yinchuan decided to be more serious:
"The way you're treating the teardrop lizard is suspected of being abuse. Please stop, or I will definitely pursue the matter."
"Huh? Who do you think you are? Are young people these days so disrespectful to their elders?"
It's clear that the middle-aged trainer doesn't recognize Ye Yinchuan, otherwise he wouldn't have shown such a blatant disrespect.
However, he noticed the Whimsicott next to Ye Yinchuan and wondered which Pokémon it was, as he didn't seem to recognize it.
"If you're unhappy with what I've done, I, your uncle, wouldn't mind using a fight to teach you... when you're out in the world, don't meddle in other people's business!"
The middle-aged trainer smirked, his face full of disdain. "While you'll be fine here, your Pokémon are in for a rough time!"
Ye Yinchuan frowned slightly, as if he could read some hidden information from the other party's words.
That means if this were deep in the jungle, the opponent would likely teach him a lesson!
"I should be giving you those words verbatim."
Having said all that, Ye Yinchuan sighed, took out a Poké Ball, and pondered which Pokémon to use to teach this arrogant old man a lesson!
[Uh... Is this guy alright? Although the streamer's specialty is appraisal, his Pokémon battle prowess is no joke!]
[That's great, after all, the streamer is so famous, it's rare to find someone willing to intentionally feed kills like that, hahaha!]
Don't get too excited yet. While the streamer's Pokémon are impressive, their levels aren't very high. They might not have an advantage against veteran professional trainers!
Ye Yinchuan glanced at the comments, his expression unperturbed.
Of course he could see that the middle-aged trainer's two Eevee were both around level 40...
Although the level is quite high, it's not like it's unbeatable!
