Pokémon: Simultaneous time travel, this Ash is too versatile!

Chapter 41 Pikachu's Special Feature: Fixed Stats!
When Ash previously extracted the S-rank ability Aura Power, the power was directly transferred to him. Even without reading the instructions, Ash already possessed immense power.

However, Ash didn't know how to use that power, nor did he know any other ways to utilize it.

However, after he emerged from the S-rank ability he had just extracted, he did not feel any changes in his body.

However, the C-rank breeder's ability took effect immediately. When Ash came out, he felt that his mind seemed to have gained a lot more knowledge.

At that moment, he looked around, searching for Pikachu. After seeing Pikachu, he thought about how to relieve Pikachu's fatigue, and relevant massage knowledge and some simple matching dishes immediately came to mind.

This is the ability of a beginner breeder. Just as Ash said, although it is some basic knowledge, it is still a very powerful help for him as a beginner!

But while C-rank abilities had already appeared on him, S-rank abilities were nowhere to be found. So when Ash saw another point of light in his mind, he clicked on it without hesitation.

The instructions for use were released, but they also used the one-time use ability!

A one-time ability, the brilliance of being chosen by heaven, allows one to encounter an extremely rare Pokémon within three days, with a high probability of capturing it. Just how rare is this "extremely rare"? There's no definitive answer. Could it possibly be a legendary Pokémon?
Even if it's a mythical beast, he can't possibly subdue it!
After meeting Ho-Oh, Ash had a very clear understanding of legendary Pokémon. They were not Pokémon that ordinary trainers could easily defeat. Even if the Champion came and sent all six of his Pokémon together, they might not be able to beat him.

As Tactical Xiaozhi once said, if you give him six Elite Four level fighters, he can defeat six Champion level fighters, but if you give him six Champion level fighters, he can't even beat a God-level fighter. This is the huge gap between Champion and God-level.

Therefore, even if a mythical beast appeared in front of him, he would have no chance of subduing it.

However, apart from mythical beasts, what other spirits can be considered extremely rare?

Xiao Zhi really wanted to join the group and ask the experts some more questions, but he thought that if he went in, the ongoing battle might reignite, so he gave up the idea.

Let's talk about it tomorrow.

Ash then placed the A-rank Special Attack stat cap on Pikachu. Pikachu's Special Attack stat cap remained unchanged, but its stat fluctuations disappeared, and it became B.

Ability values ​​are not static. As your level increases, your ability values ​​will decrease, and you will need to spend some time training to raise them back up.

If a Pokémon has a normal-level B-rank speed stat, when it is upgraded to the advanced level, its B-rank speed stat will drop to B-rank or even C-rank.

Otherwise, if a Pokémon's stats are already at A-rank at its current level, and it remains A-rank after leveling up, wouldn't that be equivalent to its stats instantly reaching the maximum for its current level as soon as it levels up? There's no such thing as a free lunch.

If we compare a level to a water bottle, then the ability value is the water inside. As the level increases, the height of the water bottle increases, so naturally, you need to fill it with water.

But Pikachu is different. After leveling up, its fluctuating stats do not change at all. At the normal level, its stats fluctuate between D and B, and it remains the same at the advanced level.

Even with the enhanced speed ability, it remains a C-B after the upgrade.

In other words, Pikachu's stats do not decrease as its level increases, which is simply incredible for a Pokémon.

However, the fact that stats fluctuate is already incredible enough. Even if a Pokémon's stats fluctuate, it's usually within its current level. A B-rank Pokémon might fluctuate from B- to B+ at most. How could it possibly drop to C or even D rank?

Ash has seen many Pokémon with his Eye of Insight, but only his Pikachu does this...

So this may be the reason why Pikachu's stats don't decrease as its level increases; after all, everything has its advantages and disadvantages.

However, with the help of the abilities obtained through the chat group lottery, Pikachu's drawback of fluctuating abilities is gradually being eliminated, while its advantages are not.

If Pikachu's stats could be stabilized at A-rank in the future, then no matter how many levels Pikachu went up, its stats would remain fixed at A-rank, saving a lot of training time. Thinking about this, Ash couldn't help but smile.

……

The night passed, and the next morning, Xiao Gang got up early to prepare breakfast for Xiao Zhi and Xiao Xia. Xiao Zhi was the second to get up, and when he saw Xiao Gang preparing breakfast, he went over to learn how to cook from him.

With Xiaozhi helping out, Xiaogang was able to make breakfast much faster.

"Xiao Zhi, have you ever cooked before?"

"No."

"Is that so? I see that your basic skills are very solid. Whether it's cutting vegetables, adjusting the heat, or your sensitivity to the weight of the ingredients I tell you, you don't seem like a novice."

"Um...maybe I was born to be a chef, hahaha~" Xiao Zhi laughed and revealed his unusual behavior.

The reason why Ash was able to perform these basic operations so skillfully is naturally because of the beginner breeder he drew yesterday.

The beginner breeder class includes all the basics of breeding, including cooking... Cooking for Pokémon is also something that breeders should learn, which is why Ash has such skillful vegetable-cutting techniques.

Soon, delicious breakfasts were prepared, and Xiaoxia woke up from her sleeping bag, tempted by the rich aroma.

After washing up, Xiaoxia came to the simple dining table and looked at the luxurious breakfast on it. She almost burst into tears.

How long... how long has it been since I had such a hearty breakfast in the wild!

No, I should say I've never had such a hearty breakfast in the wild. Ever since I left Cerulean City, I've either been eating instant biscuits or skipping breakfast altogether, riding my bicycle to a nearby city to find a restaurant to eat at.

Traveling with Ash couldn't change the dire situation, since neither of them knew how to cook.

Now we finally have a chef on the team!

It's truly pitiful!

"What...chew...you mean Xiaozhi helped too...chew...how is that possible? He didn't even help out yesterday." Xiaoxia said with a surprised look while eating a thick omelet.

"Um... I was just observing Xiaogang's cooking habits yesterday so I could help him out!"

"Really? If you can cook, why did you eat instant biscuits with me every day before?"

"I only know how to cook some very basic dishes, and cooking outdoors is too much trouble, so I just eat fast food."

"..."

After much persuasion, Xiao Zhi managed to cover up his previous ignorance of cooking.

After eating and drinking their fill, the group tidied up and then entered Mount Tsukimi. Unbeknownst to them, three furtive figures were following closely behind them.
