Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game.

[I really appreciate your feigned ignorance, host. It gave me a chance to explain. Yes, your beauty stat has reached 1,000 points, and you are ready to evolve at any time!]

Although he already knew in his heart that the system would give this answer, he only breathed a sigh of relief after he actually heard the voice in his mind.

The day has finally come!

Chapter 87 The Light of Evolution, the Metamorphosis of the Ugly Fish!

Xia Chen had never witnessed the evolution of Pokémon in real life, since apart from videos, there was nowhere else to perform the evolution of Pokémon for anyone to see.

So when he first saw the white light emanating from the ugly fish, he was slightly taken aback.

However, he had seen the Light of Evolution in the video before, so Xia Chen immediately realized what the scene before him represented.

Feebas is about to evolve!

After two and a half months of research and cultivation, it is finally going to bear fruit today!

Of course, this only relates to the significance of studying the evolution of the ugly fish.

What's even more special is that this is Xia Chen's first Pokémon in the world to complete its evolution!

In his previous life, as a devoted Pokémon fan, Xia Chen spent an excessive amount of time playing the games across different generations.

The number of Pokémon he hatched was countless, and he worked himself to death on countless Ditto.

Evolution is an indispensable part of Pokémon's soul.

Naturally, the number of Pokémon that evolved under his guidance could fill a small mountain.

But all his past experiences combined couldn't compare to even a fraction of the joy and excitement this one brought Xia Chen.

For Ugly Fish, this day must have been a long time coming.

Although Xia Chen didn't fully understand his past, she could tell from his experience of getting to know Ugly Fish that he wasn't happy at Yunze Lake.

How could an ordinary, helpless fish with no chance of evolving into Milotic be happy?

That's why he hesitated so much before I subdued him, and then worked so hard after I subdued him, right?

And today, he has finally reached the day of his transformation.

Xia Chen pressed his ten fingers against the glass outside the aquarium, as if trying to transfer his power into it.

…………

In the deep blue aquarium.

The white light spots emanating from the ugly fish continued to spread and then condense. Soon, large areas of light spots gathered into a surface, enveloping the ugly fish's small body.

Eevee and Ralts were also attracted by the spectacular evolution of Feebas and watched from the edge of the aquarium.

Eevee is alright; having been by Xia Chen's side for so many years, she has witnessed dozens of evolutions.

But this was the first time Ralts had ever seen a Pokémon evolve up close, especially one of its closest companions.

Her eyes, hidden beneath her short, sapphire-blue hair, were wide open like those of a curious kitten. Although no one could see this adorable scene, her slightly parted mouth revealed her surprise.

Is this evolution?

As one of the Pokémon with the most significant changes in size before and after evolution, Feebas's evolutionary spectacle is certainly far more than that.

The pure white light of evolution was so dazzling that it enveloped the entire body of the ugly fish.

Xia Chen, watching from outside the aquarium, could only barely make out his outline.

Surrounded by the light of evolution, the ugly fish's body continued to grow larger and longer.

Its graceful, snake-like form has begun to emerge; its originally flat, fish-shaped body has been reshaped, becoming rounded and slender.

A few seconds later, the dazzling light of evolution disappeared, and Milotic, whose silhouette alone was enough to captivate countless creatures, finally appeared in the aquarium.

"Laru."

"Buyi."

"Fuck."

The three bewitched beings uttered three different voices, but expressed the same meaning.

…………

Milotic's body is primarily composed of a pure, milky white color without any impurities.

Its slightly coiled tail is covered with scales that are a mix of deep blue, resembling the ocean, and rose pink.

At the top of the tail are four very large blue scales, with an oval pattern of the same rose pink color in the center of each scale.

The extremely obvious color difference does not appear abrupt at all, but rather has a natural and beautiful feel.

Milotic has a relatively long head with a protrusion on top. Along its eyelids, a pair of long, pink eyebrows extend out like two gorgeous ribbons.

Beneath her eyebrows, a pair of beautiful, jewel-like eyes gazed intently at Xia Chen, as if trying to express a thousand unspoken words.

"Fuwu——"

With a high-pitched roar, Milotic moved from its coiled position in the aquarium, then leaped high out of the water and stopped in front of Xia Chen, who was still in shock.

He didn't come to his senses until the water splashing from the aquarium hit his face.

Milos is very long, estimated to be four or five meters long, but when coiled up, it is about the same height as Xia Chen.

He naturally leaned his head close to Xia Chen and closed his eyes.

"Phew~"

Xia Chen understood what Minas meant, placed his hand on his head, and felt the burning emotions beneath his cold skin.

Recalling his pitiful appearance when they first met, too timid to approach, Xia Chen couldn't help but mutter to himself, "See? Xiao Han was right, you are the most beautiful elf in the world."

"Phew~"

Because you're here, Xia Chen.

The one who pulled me out of the abyss, it was you.

Moreover, evolving into Milotic is just the first step in the growth plan you devised for me.

We still have a long way to go in the future!

…………

Behind the fairytale-like scenes and stories, there's still a mess.

Xia Chen struggled to remove the water that had overflowed from the aquarium onto the ground.

His house was old to begin with, and the living room had wooden flooring, which was very susceptible to moisture and needed to be dealt with quickly.

None of the three Pokémon could help; Eevee and Ralts were still young, and Milotic could only spray water but not absorb it.

It took me ages to finally get it working.

After cleaning, things get even busier.

The research on the evolution of the Feebas, and the research on the Beauty Energy Cubes that are closely related to it, has reached its final, but also most important, stage.

Edit a complete video of Feebas's evolution, contact Professor Oak and Brock in the Kanto region, and prepare evidence that Beauty Cubes can enable Feebas's evolution.

It can be said that although Feebas has successfully evolved into Milotic, in another realm, the real show is yet to come.

The three elves also knew the importance of this matter and did not disturb Xia Chen.

Ralts stayed next to Milotic like a curious child, asking questions that seemed to be going on and on.

Eevee, as if sensing extraordinary pressure, returned to its room to absorb the energy of the Fairy Gem.

Even the ugly fish has evolved, how can we let him monopolize the limelight?

While dealing with Ralts's recurring questions about evolution, Milotic listened to the system's voice in its mind.

…………

[Congratulations, host, you have successfully evolved into Milotic (Jiaolong stage), and are one step closer to evolving into Yinglong!]

[Congratulations, host, you have received the Evolution Gift Pack: one Dragon Scale (Palkia), one Sea Incense (Kyogre), and one Move Gift Pack!]

Your current growth rate is 5%. Please keep up the good work!

Palkia! Kyogre!

Milotic was shocked by the two Pokémon mentioned by the system.

He was no longer the ignorant ugly fish in Yunze Lake. He had naturally heard of the legendary God of Space and the incarnation of the ocean.

I never expected the system to give me something so good again.

So what exactly is this "special move pack"?

Milotic thought to himself with curiosity, "Open the move pack!"

[The skill pack has been unlocked, and Butterfly Dance (a fish leaping over the dragon gate, also signifying breaking free from the cocoon and becoming a butterfly) has been unlocked at 5% growth.]

[Spraying water (As a dragon, isn't spraying water something anyone can do?) Unlocked at 10% growth.]

[Meteor Shower (As a dragon, it makes sense to have a meteor shower, right?) Unlocked at 15% growth.]

Butterfly Dance, Meteor Shower, and Water Spray – these three powerful moves that I originally had no way of learning, I was able to acquire through the system?

Despite the unlocking restrictions, Milotic still had to say, "As expected of the system Xia Chen gave me!"

As for the dragon scales and ocean incense, the mysterious water droplet and the white jade pearl have not been fully absorbed yet, so these two treasures will be kept for now.

Milnas understands the principle of not biting off more than you can chew.

……

Meanwhile, Milos is busy working on the system.

Meanwhile, Xia Chen also shared the good news that Feebas had evolved with Professor Oak and Brock.

Recommending a book! It's a crossover anime/manga series with multiple female protagonists. It features a character teaching Nishimiya Shoko from "A Silent Voice" to speak, and a character who falls in love with Yukino Hyakuri from "The Garden of Words" while using the body of Miyamizu Mitsuha from "Your Name".

Chapter 88: The Ugly Fish That Can Evolve Without Beautiful Scales?

"What?! Feebas has evolved?!"
