You are not allowed to be a Pokémon Trainer!

Chapter 2 Streamer, your substitute defense strategy is indeed very strong.
Avoiding the large crowds heading to the cafeteria, Xia Chi returned to her dormitory.

Because of the existence of elves, this world is more productive than the previous one.

Naturally, basic aspects such as clothing, food, housing, and transportation have also improved by more than one level.

The dormitories at the Shanghai universities where Xia Chi studied were all apartment-style two-bedroom, one-living-room dormitories.

The excellent accommodations even made him feel that his university dormitory in his previous life was a doghouse.

Lying in the comfortable and quiet bedroom, Xia Chi activated the system again.

On the blue, semi-transparent screen, several lines of text stood out prominently.

[Elf] [Bond] [Item]

Is this the system's main function?
Xia Chi tried clicking the first two buttons, but there was no response.

He wasn't surprised; he hadn't captured any Pokémon yet, so it was normal that it wasn't showing up.

However, Xia Chi is an experienced rider, so he can probably guess the function of these buttons.

The bonds between characters are the essence of the game "Golden Spatula Battle".

When two characters with the same trait appear together, they can provide powerful combat or economic buffs.

In the Pokémon world, it's likely that Pokémon with the same type or the same characteristics would form some kind of bond.

As for what the bond effect is, we can only study that after we obtain the initial spirit.

The [Items] interface displays the three items that were previously obtained from the Prismatic Orb.

[Artifact Forging Tool: After use, you can choose one of three powerful artifacts (can only be equipped on tamed spirits)]

【Chosen Emblem: When used, it transforms a Pokémon into a "Chosen Pokémon." Chosen Pokémon gain additional Bond Points and special effects (can only be used on Pokémon that have already been captured)】

[Basic Equipment Forging Tool: After use, you can choose one of three basic equipment items. Two basic equipment items can be combined into one piece of complete equipment.]

"As expected, it's not much different from what I thought; it's just a modified version of the Pokémon Golden Spatula system."

Xia Chi pondered to himself, "But I'll study the specific effects after I capture my first Pokémon."

------

After dinner, Xia Chi turned on her computer and began her work for the day.

"Hello hello? Moshi moshi? Aloha? Can you hear me?"

As soon as the live stream started, a large number of people flocked in.

"Great, it's prison water! My anorexia is cured!"

"Streamer, your strategy of defending the poison is indeed very strong, but it still requires too much skill. Do you have any simpler yet powerful team recommendations?"

"Teacher Shui isn't turning on her camera again today? What am I supposed to do about my flight today?"

"Please update the Pokémon mythology series videos soon! I haven't been able to enjoy my meals lately without this electronic pickled vegetable!"

"Who's Shuiye from the Qishu supertopic?"

"."

Xia Chi's livestream host's name is Shui Ye, which is derived from the splitting of the character "池" (pond).

As a rising popular video creator and game streamer, he has a considerable number of active fans.

Especially after he bumped into the super popular Gym Leader Kiju from the Padina region a while ago, and tortured him to the point of Red Temperature with Substitute and Poison, he gained a lot of popularity.

Of course, an idol streamer's fan base will inevitably include some people with abnormal minds.

Aside from the memes, the live stream atmosphere was generally harmonious, but there were still a few jarring comments.

"You like playing such underhanded tactics. Even if Onix used an earthquake at your house, it would only hit one person, right?"

"They don't even dare to turn on the camera, is it because their appearance is uglier than their tactics?"

"You don't deserve to be a streamer at all, I'm unfollowing you!"

"Go apologize to Qishu right now, or our cheering squad has plenty of strength and methods!"

Wait, where did this string of skewers come from?

You're ruining Mary's reputation!
After the broadcast started, Xia Chi, who was used to glancing at the comments, was speechless. Then he casually banned a few accounts that were spamming trash talk.

It wasn't that he was angered by the criticism; Xia Chi never cared about such negative comments. His family's household registration book indeed only had one page.

This attack is like fighting a Ghost-type Pokémon in close combat; it can't cause any damage.

The main point is that his live stream aims for a harmonious and joyful atmosphere, and he doesn't want these kinds of trashy things to affect other people's viewing experience.

I may not be a professional Pokémon Trainer, but no one knows more about live streaming than me!
After a quick cleanup, Xia Chi started playing Pokémon: Champion Road.

Strictly speaking, this game is not just about building teams and battling; it also has a rich element of collecting and raising Pokémon.

Developing a top-tier account requires a significant investment of money or effort.

Xia Chi logged into her roommate Chen Zhenze's account today.

His family background was much better than Xia Chi's, but only by a limited margin.

Therefore, the number and quality of Pokémon on this account are not high-end; they are merely passable.

It works, but it can't be assembled with some mainstream builds.

However, Xia Chi started out with all sorts of bizarre tactics, so this kind of account is just as good.

"Streamer, your strategy of defending the poison is indeed very strong, but it still requires too much skill. Do you have any simpler yet powerful team recommendations?"

After repeating the comments from the previous video, Xia Chi said, "Yes, there are some brothers. There are nine more teams as strong as this one."

Nine is obviously just a figure of speech. There are many underhanded tactics similar to the "substitute poison" strategy, not to mention that Xia Chi could easily produce a dozen or twenty sets.

"Today I'm going to teach you how to maximize output: the Trapinch-type Ant!"

The moment the words "mandible ant" were uttered, the live stream room was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

"Here it comes, it's time for Grandpa's favorite part: the baby team!"

"If I remember correctly, the mandible ant should be the initial stage of the desert dragonfly, right?"

"Hilarious! What can a mandible ant do? It should evolve a bit more before it comes back!"

"The 'Don't Laugh Challenge'? I admit it's a bit difficult."

"."

Faced with a barrage of mocking comments, Xia Chi remained silent, focusing solely on building his team.

The tactical system of this world is also similar to the world view in the animation.

In terms of high emotional intelligence, it's like a passionate, physical battle, a clash of techniques.

In terms of low emotional intelligence...
"I woke up to find that the world's understanding of Pokémon battles has decreased by ten thousand times!"

It's actually quite easy to understand; games and reality are worlds apart.

The turn-based battles in the game are limited by strategic elements such as race stats, skill combinations, team defense, and prediction.

Real-world battles truly test the trainer's skill in both training the Pokémon and their ability to command the battle.

It's not fair to say that the natives don't understand tactics or team building at all.

The truth is, reality isn't a turn-based game, and the aforementioned factors become less important in the face of a power imbalance.

But then again.

Pokémon Victory Road is, after all, a game based on data.

Those tactics that were previously overlooked have now found a stage to shine.

------

"Okay, everyone, our lineup is now complete."

Xia Chi didn't keep the viewers in the live stream waiting long; he quickly assembled a lineup centered around Trapinch-ant.

Brimwyn, Mimikyu, Trapinch, Coal Tortoise, Dusquirrel, and Vulcan.

In a ranked ladder dominated by popular Pokémon like Charizard, Venusaur, and Lucario, this is truly a breath of fresh air.

"Next, I will not lose a single game and will reach the advanced ball rank!"

Xia Chi made a bold statement and then pressed the match button.
