Pokémon: Who told him to come out of Pallet Town!

Chapter 242 What is weakness? Let's look at it from a different perspective.

Chapter 243 What is weakness? Let's look at it from a different perspective.

"Professor Kongmu, what's wrong?"

Xiao Zhi was extremely curious.

"Pikachu—"

Natsume picked up the girl with the middle parting and tossed her into the boy's arms, making room for her.

Kūki sat down and began his narration:

"You don't know this, but the Unova region sent us an Archaeopteryx to be tested by Bill."

"I'm kind of a transit point here, doing some record-keeping."

"Unexpectedly, the Archaeopteryx was attacked just as it was being transported to the research institute!" Kongmu sighed incessantly.

"Attack a research institute? Who has the audacity to do that?!"

Xiao Gang never expected that someone would actually dare to attack the research institute.

He'd never seen it before. No, the Rockets trio had.

But Meow Meow and his gang are like newborn calves unafraid of tigers. Even if they are legitimate criminal groups, they would not target research institutes in various places.

Perhaps the initial partner of a certain Elite Four trainer was obtained from that research institute.

Almost every research institute knows a huge number of trainers.

The group exchanged glances, and an idea suddenly popped into their minds.

Could it really be Meow Meow and the others?

"Um, Dr. Kongmu, could you describe what characteristics the group that attacked Kongmu Research Institute had?"

Xiao Gang suddenly said.

"Special features? There is one that can talk, though."

really

"A group of baby saw-alligators managed to escape from the research institute, but were captured by those three."

Dr. Kumo sighed deeply, as if he had exhausted all his energy.

"In that case, Dr. Elm, I'll go find the little totosh for you!"

"All the useless stuff has been taken away." Dr. Kongmu's body went limp, and he slumped into the chair.

If the Archaeopteryx hadn't been injured, he might have been able to recall the little saw-totolis, but now it's too late.

"If it were the three of them, I think there would still be a chance to win it back."

Xiao Gang stood up, his words brimming with confidence.

"Yeah, yeah, if it were the three of them, Meow Meow, maybe we could really get them back."

Xiaoxia nodded and stood up.

Upon hearing this, Kuki turned to look at Natsume.

Are the kids you're taking care of really that confident?

"You may go."

As Natsume spoke, he imported the locations of Meowth and the others into Ash's Pokédex.

"Hmm? I think it would be better to let Miss Officer Jenny handle it."

Kuki's eyes widened as he tried to dissuade them, but Ash and his friends had already run off.

"Don't worry, we'll definitely find it."

"You really trust those three that much?" Kuki looked at Natsume incredulously.

"Of course I'm not worried about the three of them. They'll definitely be saved." Natsume nodded.

Of course, it wasn't Ash and his two companions.

"Okay, fine."

Kongmu was slightly taken aback, but without thinking much of it, he simply took out a large pile of documents and started reading them on the dining table.

"Why are you working so hard?" Natsume leaned closer and noticed that Kuki was looking at some measurements of Archaeopteryx.

"I think the reason the research lab was attacked is because it's a new lab and doesn't have enough trainers in the pipeline. Look at Professor Oak's lab, nobody dares to mess with him!"

As Kongmu spoke, a fighting spirit ignited in his eyes.

Natsume: "."

Even if it's just a trio, Oak's lab won't stand a chance; they'd still dare to mess with them.

Are you logging Archaeopteryx battles into the game?

After looking at it for a moment, Natsume asked.

"Yes." Kongmu nodded.

Natsume nodded thoughtfully, but then saw Jiaozi approaching.

"Mr. Natsume, what does 'battle registration' mean?"

Jiaozi, holding her middle-parted hair, asked curiously.

"Many Pokémon are not allowed to be used for battle under certain circumstances."

As Natsume spoke, he tapped the man with the middle parting on the head, causing the man's snot bubble to burst instantly.

"Take out your Pokémon Protection Act and show it to her."

With his hair parted in the middle, he opened his eyes groggily, jumped a few times, and pulled out his cracked phone from Natsume's backpack.

"Pikachu—"

With her hair parted in the middle, she opened the e-book and then nestled into Jiaozi's arms to continue her dozing.

"Oh, the legal battling age is different for each Pokémon."

The proud child murmured.

She was aware of this; it had been mentioned in the school curriculum.

Furthermore, many Pokémon that are not suitable for battle are not allowed to be used in the League.

For example, Pokémon eggs, sick Pokémon, etc.

To ensure the Zapdos egg could be used, Natsume dragged Officer Jenny to get it tested overnight and obtained a temporary certificate.

"One more thing, the Pokémon League recognizes that the Pokémon used in the tournament format must meet the requirements for battle registration."

Natsume's voice suddenly rang out.

Jiaozi nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

This is something that most people are unaware of.

"The general idea is that only Pokémon that have been thoroughly researched and have clearly defined base stats, abilities, and types can be battled; otherwise, it's illegal."

Natsume explained.

"Why, Mr. Natsume? What about those mythical beasts?"

"I'm so proud of myself," Jiao Zi asked curiously.

From this perspective, wouldn't trainers who possess legendary Pokémon be breaking the law?

"Mythical beasts have a different set of rules that apply."

"This addresses certain special cases."

As he spoke, Natsume's expression turned strange.

About ten years ago, "homemade" Pokémon were all the rage.

Those "Pokémon" are actually purely mechanical creations equipped with lethal weapons, and some unscrupulous trainers have brought them to the arena.

After that, the League introduced the "Pokémon Battle Strategy".

Natsume is quite familiar with this history, and can even recite it from memory.

He was surprised to find that he often drew inspiration from these "homemade" Pokémon when developing various Rotoms.

To be honest, the Pokémon world he came to was full of amazing people.

"According to the data provided by Mr. Zheng Hui, Archaeopteryx was exceptional."

Dr. Kumo's surprised voice rang out.

Archaeopteryx, rock and flight

【HP：75、物攻：140、物防：65、特攻：110、特防：65、速度：110、总和：565】

Dr. Kuki was editing in his notebook when Natsume leaned closer and noticed that it was different from what was displayed on the system panel.

The system panel shows a special attack of 112, but here it is 110.

But considering that this was measured by Zheng Hui himself, and that only one Archaeopteryx was used as a reference, the error of two points is already quite remarkable.

"Ah, what a pity."

Dr. Kuki shook his head.

"Professor, this Pokémon has a total of 565 points. That's excellent!"

The proud son was puzzled.

Having graduated from a purely theoretical institution, she was intimately familiar with these data.

It has high speed, high attack, and good special attack, and can also use dual blades to broaden its attack range.

These ancient Pokémon would be very popular with trainers if many were bred.

"It's excellent, but look at the characteristics that Zheng Hui tested." Dr. Kongmu shrugged.

[Weakness: After taking a certain amount of damage (approximately half of HP), the user becomes weak, with a significant decrease in aggression, specifically manifested as a near 50% reduction in Attack and Special Attack.]

Natsume narrowed his eyes as he read Masahiro's description.

He naturally knew what Dr. Kongmu was worried about.

The league encourages Pokémon battles and further promotes diversity in Pokémon battles, preventing them from being limited by fixed strategies.

Whenever a new Pokémon is discovered, or when certain rare Pokémon are unlocked due to mass breeding, many trainers will immediately go to the official website to check the detailed information of those Pokémon.

However, most people admire strength.

Many weak Pokémon go unnoticed, even if they may have potential in other productive areas.

This is detrimental to social development.

Only through the interaction of many different people and many different Pokémon.

Only in this hybrid society can we discover the wonderful interactions between various professions and Pokémon.

After all, not everyone is a trainer, but everyone can have their own partner.

When researchers write illustrations, they need to maintain a "balance" and try to beautify the illustrations as much as possible.

What's bothering Kūki right now is Archaeopteryx's damned characteristics.

"I think we can try a different approach."

As Natsume spoke, he took the notebook from Kuki's hands and began to revise his words.

Archaeopteryx, rock and flight

【HP：75、物攻：100、物防：65、特攻：79、特防：65、速度：110、总和：494】

[Characteristic: Powerful - When HP is high, Attack and Special Attack are increased by 1.4 times!]

"Clatter!"

As the last exclamation mark fell, Natsume looked at the dumbfounded Professor Empire:

"How is it? Doesn't it look much better now?"
