Chapter 2 The Scorpion That Fell From the Sky!
It's not just because of the perks you can enjoy at the Pokémon Center after obtaining the Pokédex.
The main purpose is that the Pokédex helps Qingyuan to observe the potential of Pokémon more intuitively.
After fifteen years of hard work, Qingyuan is now certain that he does not have the legendary cheat code.
Even the Eye of Insight, which is supposedly something every transmigrator has, is something this miserable transmigrator doesn't possess.
Of course, the Pokédex doesn't have that much power. All it can do is help Qingyuan observe the data of this Pokémon and, by comparing it with the database, allow trainers to more intuitively perceive the development potential of their Pokémon.
Another benefit is that it can help Qingyuan observe the skills that this Pokémon possesses, as well as its inherited skills.
Although the function is relatively simple, it is not suitable for Qingyuan who does not have any cheat codes.
This feature is already quite powerful.
After all, the lack of funds forces Qingyuan to take the elite route. If he encounters a Pokémon with little potential, and he has invested a lot of resources in it...
The already impoverished Qingyuan will be dragged down by this elf.
Only by allocating the limited resources to spirits with greater potential and quickly converting them into strength can we achieve our goals.
In this way, Qingyuan can earn more resources with this Pokémon, forming a virtuous cycle and continuously enhancing his strength. Only in this way can he realize his dream of becoming a trainer.
If the Pokémon's potential is insufficient, preventing a positive cycle from forming, then his dream of becoming a trainer will truly remain unfulfilled.
So, even though the Pokédex is a bit expensive for him, he's still prepared to get it.
As for Ash Ketchum's claim that any Pokémon can become stronger through training, Qingyuan does not deny it.
However, the prerequisite is that he has the resources. Before he has the resources, Qingyuan can only learn from Shinji.
After dusting off the notebook, Qingyuan opened it and sat under the tree, reading it with great interest.
In addition to the plot he originally recorded in Chinese characters, the notebook also contains cultivation notes that he has copied from the Tokiwa City Library and Mr. Wadaishi's collection over the years.
It records some common knowledge about raising Pokémon, as well as some unique tips and tricks.
In the process of making a Pokémon stronger, in addition to training and battling, daily nurturing of the Pokémon is also very important.
Just like Ash's Krabby in the anime, if Professor Oak hadn't raised it for a period of time, it would have been impossible for it to achieve the feat of defeating three opponents in the Indigo League.
Of course, if Qingyuan had a breeder like Xiaogang by his side, then Qingyuan could concentrate on studying tactics and training.
Unfortunately, he didn't have it, and he might not have it in the future, so he had to learn it on his own.
As time passed, Qingyuan was so immersed in the ocean of knowledge that he didn't even notice the passage of time.
When he looked up from his notebook, the western sky had turned a fiery red.
Seeing that it was getting late, Qingyuan quickly put away his notebook, stood up from the ground, and stretched his limbs.
Qingyuan then cupped his hands around his mouth to form a megaphone shape and shouted.
"Tauro, let's go home!"
"Moo~"
Qingyuan called out three times in a row, and after a long while, a strong voice replied to him.
Tauros, accompanied by his minions, slowly walked down the slope towards Qingyuan, who stood still and waited.
When Kentaur arrived in front of Qingyuan, he proudly tossed his head at him.
Seeing this, Qingyuan was not annoyed, but instead took out a small handful of elf food.
"Looks like you don't like this. How about I give you another Tauros to try?"
Upon hearing this, Kentairo became anxious and began to fawn over Qingyuan, even trying to nuzzle Qingyuan with its head.
Seeing this, Qingyuan quickly fed the Pokémon food in his hand to Tauros. Tauros doesn't hold back when it hits, and being bumped by its big head is quite uncomfortable.
After eating the elf food, Tauros changed its arrogant demeanor and bowed its head to Qingyuan, preparing to carry Qingyuan on its back.
Just as Qingyuan was about to mount the ox, he saw a dark shadow streak across the sky and then fly straight toward him.
"boom!"
After a loud bang, the dark figure crashed straight onto the lawn a hundred meters away from Qingyuan.
Seeing this, Qingyuan and Kentairo stared at each other blankly for a while.
After a long while, Qingyuan decided to go and see what was going on, just in case it was an opportunity that had fallen from the sky.
As for whether there would be any danger, Qingyuan looked down at Tauros, believing that Tauros would help him escape.
A hundred meters isn't a long distance. Kentaro led Qingyuan to the spot where the shadow had landed in just a few steps. There, a scorpion-shaped object was lying on the ground in a cross shape.
Qingyuan jumped off Kentauro's back and walked up to the scorpion-shaped object. He saw a scorpion with round eyes lying on the grass.
"Strange! Why is Scorpio here?"
Qingyuan looked at the Scorpion in front of him with some doubt. Although Fuchun Town is right next to Viridian Forest, some Pokémon from the Johto region do run into the vicinity on weekdays.
However, those Pokémon were all adults, but they got lost and ended up near Viridian City instead of Johto.
But this scorpion in front of us is different from those elves. It is smaller than a normal scorpion and has a purple-pink exoskeleton.
All these characteristics clearly indicate that the scorpion in front of us is a scorpion that has not yet emerged from its juvenile stage.
After what just happened, Qingyuan was certain that this scorpion probably hadn't even fully mastered flying yet, otherwise it wouldn't have knocked itself unconscious.
Thinking of this, Qingyuan looked towards the distant Viridian Forest, the direction from which Scorpion had flown. All signs indicated that something seemed to have happened in the Viridian Forest.
Although this matter seemed profitable, Qingyuan had no intention of getting involved.
There was nothing he could do; being so weak, he clearly had no right to get involved, so he decided to just pretend he didn't know.
Of course, he wouldn't give up the chance to drink some soup if he could ensure his safety.
Thinking of this, Qingyuan took out the Poké Ball he had prepared five years ago, pressed the switch, and threw it at the Gliscor in front of him.
The newborn Scorpion, still unconscious, was clearly defenseless. The Poké Ball didn't even shake; it simply made a "thump!" sound, indicating a successful capture.
Seeing this, Qingyuan stepped forward, picked up the Poké Ball, and whispered.
"Little guy, I hope you have good potential, otherwise I'll have no choice but to release you back into the wild!"
"Although I still quite like Scorpios!"
After saying that, he put away the Poké Ball, then rode on Tauros, the bull king, and led the herd of cattle toward the pasture at the foot of the hill.
