Live treasure appraisal: You are such an elf!

Chapter 544 Really? The Circle Bear has an evolved form? Regigi and its brothers?
"Don't worry, don't worry."

Ye Yinchuan felt the howling wind in his ears, a smile on his face.

"Let me give you a detailed introduction to our new partner."

He slowed Milton's pace and took out the Poké Ball he had just successfully captured from his waist.

A flash of red light.

A figure made of pure electrical energy reappeared in mid-air.

Reginald.

It remains that sphere made of yellow electrical energy, with lightning bolt-shaped arms on both sides and slender legs of electric light below.

At this moment, however, its light was much dimmer than before, and its body appeared somewhat illusory and unstable.

It floated quietly beside Ye Yinchuan, its "X"-shaped face formed by seven points of light revealing a sense of bewilderment.

"grumble?"

It emitted a faint, questioning electronic sound.

"Family members, watch carefully."

Ye Yinchuan's voice drew everyone's attention.

"This Pokémon is named 'Regiereki,' a legendary Pokémon with the type Electric."

"It is known as the Electronic Giant, but I prefer to call it the God of Electricity."

He pointed to Reggie Elech's body, which was constantly crackling with electric arcs.

"As you can see, its body is almost entirely made of electricity. This gives it incredible speed."

"It's no exaggeration to say that among all known Pokémon, its speed is absolutely at the very top of the pyramid."

As Ye Yinchuan spoke, he reached out and tentatively touched Reggio Emilia.

My fingertips passed through that body made of energy, leaving only a slight, tingling sensation.

"Gee~"

Regigi seemed to enjoy the feeling, letting out a soft moan of pleasure, and even rubbed his "arm" against Ye Yinchuan's fingers.

[Even though it looks so abstract, why does it somehow seem kind of cute?]

[Cute? Only streamers can trigger this trait; anyone else would be electrocuted in an instant!]

"According to some very old, incomplete documents..."

Ye Yinchuan's expression turned serious.

"Regiereki, and its kin, are not naturally born Pokémon."

"Legend has it that they were 'created' by another, even more ancient and powerful legendary Pokémon."

"And its kin, or rather 'brothers,' represent rock, ice, and steel respectively..."

"Even more, there are giants sleeping in other corners of the world, representing other elements that we have not yet discovered."

The moment these words were spoken, the live stream chat exploded!
[Created?! Pokémon can be created?!]

[Dude, Regigigas is already a Legendary Pokémon, what kind of thing could create it?]

Ignoring the shock of the comments, Ye Yinchuan gently touched the five mysterious rings emitting a ghostly blue light on Reggie Elegy's body.

"Does everyone see these rings?"

"These are not decorations."

"Legend has it that these rings are made of a special substance that is completely non-conductive. It was its creator who personally placed a seal on it to limit its excessive power!"

Ye Yinchuan's voice carried a hint of shock.

"In other words, what we see now, the Regigigas defeated by Milton after its evolution from the Motolizard, is just a... weakened state due to being sealed away layer by layer and having been in a deep sleep for too long!"

"You can imagine it."

"If one day these seals are broken and it returns to its former glory... what a terrifying sight that would be?"

[…Holy crap, even in its sealed state it's this powerful?]

No wonder taming mythical beasts was so easy...

"As for its characteristics, 'electric crystal,' the effect is simple and brutal: it gives a terrifying boost to the power of all its electric-attribute moves."

"And its move that can trap its opponent is its signature move—Lightning Cage."

Ye Yinchuan took out a tree fruit that was surrounded by electric energy and handed it to Reggie Elech's "mouth".

Regigi hesitated for a moment, then swallowed the entire tree fruit.

The fruit decomposes instantly within its body, transforming into pure electrical energy to replenish its energy consumption.

Its body shone noticeably brighter.

"Chirp~ Chirp~"

It happily circled Ye Yinchuan twice.

"Alright, that concludes the introduction of our new partner."

Ye Yinchuan smiled and withdrew Reggio Emilia.

"In the future, everyone will have many opportunities to see it."

"Now, let's go home!"

He patted Milton beneath him.

"Yan!"

The futuristic motorcycle, brimming with technological sophistication, once again transformed into a streak of light tearing through the air, disappearing into the distance on its return journey.

the next day.

Ye Yinchuan started his live stream on time.

After a night of fermentation, the recorded clip of Motolizard evolving into Milton and powerfully defeating and capturing the legendary Pokémon Regice has gone viral across the internet.

Countless trainers, scholars, and even official organizations have shown great interest in these two Pokémon.

As soon as Ye Yinchuan's live stream started, his popularity broke historical records, with the barrage of comments so dense that the screen was almost invisible.

Good morning, family.

Ye Yinchuan sat in his familiar live-streaming room, with a dazzling array of Pokémon merchandise and books behind him.

"I know everyone has a lot of questions about Millerton and Reggie Ellech. Don't worry, I will make a video to introduce them in detail later."

"Today, we'll stick to our usual format: a live Pokémon appraisal session to help you resolve some of your questions about Pokémon."

He skillfully opened the list of connection requests.

"Now, let's see who the first lucky audience member is."

The connection is established.

A young man wearing glasses and looking somewhat scholarly appeared on the screen.

He was holding a... completely pink sheep.

The sheep's wool wasn't a normal milky white, but a very even, soft cherry blossom pink.

"Hello, streamer! Can you help me check if my Mareep is a shiny variant?"

The man appeared very agitated.

"I've done a lot of research. Shiny Mare Eevee's body is pink, but its wool is still white! Mine is just all pink! This must be an even rarer mutation!"

Wow! A pink sheep! So cute!

【Full-body powder? What kind of new product is this?】

[Hey streamer, take a look! If this is a new variant, it'll be incredibly valuable!]

Ye Yinchuan's "Discerning Eye for Treasures" has already provided the answer.

He suppressed a laugh and cleared his throat.

"My friend, please calm down."

"I have a question for you. Do you often feed it a kind of red fruit called 'spicy cherry'?"

The young man was taken aback.

"Oh? Yes! It really loves that, it's sweet and sour, I give it to it as a snack every day. Is there a problem with that?"

"That's the problem."

A slight smile curved the corners of Ye Yinchuan's mouth.

"The wool of Mare sheep is mainly composed of keratin, which has a loose structure and strong adsorption properties."

"And the spicy cherry contains a natural, very stable red pigment."

"Your sheep, due to long-term and excessive consumption, has accumulated pigments in its body, which then seeped into its wool through the hair follicles."

"so……"

"It is neither a mutation nor a flash."

"It's just... dyed."

"Just like us humans, if we eat too many oranges... our skin will turn yellow, and we'll become little yellow people."

The live stream chat immediately erupted with a barrage of comments.

[6. The host's example is vivid and engaging!]

[Thought it was a rare mutation, but it turned out to be something that changes color after eating it!]

So, if you want a pink Mare, you feed it spicy cherry berries?

The young man on the other side of the screen, holding his "pink limited edition" Mareep, froze on the spot.

"Okay, next one."

Ye Yinchuan quickly connected to the second line.

Okay, let's look at the next one.

Screen switching.

This time, the person connecting was an elderly man with gray hair and a forlorn expression.

A musical note parrot perched on his shoulder.

But the musical note parrot had its head down and looked listless. "Hello, Anchor Ye," the old man sighed, "Could you... help me take a look at my old friend?"

"It used to be the best singing note parrot in town; it could imitate any complex tune perfectly after hearing it just once."

"But starting about six months ago, it seemed like its throat was damaged."

As the old man spoke, he gently stroked the head of the musical note parrot.

"Now, it can only make some 'hissing' noises, like electricity, and it can't sing anymore. We've seen many doctors, and they all say there's nothing wrong with its vocal cords... but it just can't sing."

As it spoke, the musical note parrot seemed to sense its owner's sadness; it opened its beak and tried its best to make a sound.

"Beep... Sizzle... Sizzle..."

A piercing and chaotic noise emanated from its mouth, filled with helplessness and frustration.

[How pitiful! It must be so painful for the note parrot to not be able to sing.]

Is it a psychological problem? What triggered it?

It sounds like an old radio with no signal...

Ye Yinchuan did not answer immediately.

He gazed silently at the musical note parrot, his eyes growing deep.

"Grandpa, don't be sad."

After a moment, Ye Yinchuan slowly spoke.

"Your companion has not lost its voice."

"It's just... awakening a special ability."

"Special abilities?" The old man was stunned.

“Yes.” Ye Yinchuan nodded. “Its ability is undergoing a peculiar ‘evolution.’ It is no longer satisfied with simply imitating sounds.”

"It is trying to incorporate its own 'thoughts' and 'emotions' into its voice."

"Those hissing noises are not due to a bad signal."

"That is the 'Voice of the Mind,' which it has not yet fully mastered and which is transformed from mental power!"

Ye Yinchuan's words silenced the entire live stream.

"It is transforming from an 'imitator' into a true 'singer.' What it wants to sing is no longer other people's songs, but... its own inner songs."

"If you want to help it, you can't force it to imitate."

Ye Yinchuan's voice was gentle yet firm.

"What you need to do is to be with it, calm down, feel it, and listen to each other's hearts."

He paused, then continued, "Grandpa, now, please think of a song that you are most familiar with."

The old man was skeptical, so he closed his eyes.

"Alright, Note Parrot." Ye Yinchuan's gaze seemed to pierce through the screen, reaching the very soul of that Pokémon.

"Don't use your throat, use your heart."

"Release what you feel."

"Beep... Sizzle..."

The note parrot emitted that piercing noise again.

But this time, everyone watching the live stream had a wonderful, indescribable experience!

In their minds, a melodious, gentle, and nostalgic tune suddenly and clearly resonated!

The melody didn't reach their ears, but rather resonated directly deep within their souls!

【Fuck! ! ! ! 】

[I heard it! I really heard it! It's a very old lullaby!]

[Telepathy?! Is this telepathy?!]

My God, this is a million times more sophisticated than simple imitation!

The other side of the screen.

The old man was already in tears.

He heard it; it was the tune he loved to hum to his musical note parrot when he was young, a tune he used to lull it to sleep.

"Chirp!"

The musical note parrot seemed to sense its owner's joy; it happily flew up and circled around the old man's head.

"Alright everyone, it's almost time. Let's connect to the last one..."

Before he could finish speaking, he clicked on an application filled with both anxiety and excitement.

The screen shook for a moment.

A middle-aged man dressed in camouflage, who looked like an outdoor explorer, appeared in front of the camera.

His background was a dark, damp swamp forest.

A huge, bright full moon hangs between the treetops.

[It's only a few o'clock, how come the moon is so big? Is it because of the time difference?]

This place feels a bit eerie; it might be some high-risk wilderness area!

"Host! Host, look!"

The man lowered his voice and turned the camera to a spot not far away.

There, by the edge of a muddy pool, bathed in moonlight.

A burly, unusually large bear was frantically digging at the dirt with its sharp claws.

Its eyes held a primal, frenzied desire.

"Good heavens! Such a huge teddy bear! Its size is almost comparable to that of a tyrant!"

The man said excitedly.

"Streamer, this is absolutely top-tier! I'm going to tame it!"

Wow! This teddy bear is so strong!

[This environment, this atmosphere, it feels like something big is about to happen!]

[Host, please take a look! See if there's anything special about it!]

Ye Yinchuan's brows furrowed sharply the moment he saw the circly bear and its surroundings.

His discerning eye for antiques revealed lines of text that even startled him!

Pokémon: Ursaring

[Attribute: General]

【Level: 55】

[Status: Desire, Precursor to Evolution]

【Item Carried: Peat Block (currently absorbing moonlight and earth energy)】

"and many more!"

Ye Yinchuan's voice immediately turned serious, and he interrupted the man without hesitation.

"Don't do anything! Take your Pokémon and get out of there immediately! The farther the better!"

The man was taken aback.

"Huh? Why, streamer? Such a great opportunity!"

"This is not an opportunity! It's danger!"

Ye Yinchuan's tone was more solemn than ever before.

"This circly bear is about to evolve!"

"evolution?"

The man smiled nonchalantly.

"Isn't Ursaring the final evolution? It can evolve again?"

"Streamer, you must be joking. My Pokémon is Machamp, and it's level 50. It's more than enough to deal with an Ursaring!"

As he spoke, he unleashed his superhuman strength.

That monstrous, bulging muscle looked like it possessed considerable strength.

[Bear can evolve? This is the first time I've heard of that.]

Listen to the broadcaster, he's never wrong!

The viewers in the live stream were also discussing it.

"I'm not kidding!"

Ye Yinchuan's voice was almost a reprimand.

"The evolved form of Ursaring is called 'Ustilago!' It is a powerful Pokémon that has almost disappeared in modern times!"

"Its strength, defense, and stamina will undergo earth-shattering changes! Coupled with its already strong foundation, once it successfully evolves, your monstrous strength might not even last a single blow against it!"

However, the man was clearly blinded by his desire for victory.

He didn't believe Ye Yinchuan's words at all.

Extinct ancient Pokémon? Are you kidding me!
"Host, I know you mean well, but you underestimate me!"

"Watch me take it down! Super Strength, go! Cross Chop!"

"Come back! Come back quickly!"

Ye Yinchuan cried out, but it was too late!
With a loud roar, the monster crossed its four arms and charged towards the circle bear that was still digging in the dirt with a sharp whooshing sound!

Right now!

Finally, the circle bear dug out the dark, seemingly breathing "peat block" from the mud!
It tilted its head back and raised the peat clod high!
In the sky, the huge full moon seemed to sense something, casting an even brighter, more eerie glow!
The moonlight poured down on the peat blocks!
Buzz—! ! ! !

The peat blocks burst forth with a blinding, eerie light, a mixture of earthy yellow and blood red!

The circle bear let out a roar that was both painful and exhilarating!
The light of evolution completely enveloped it!
