Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

After Lin Xuan shakily climbed off the eagle, she still managed to speak to Bai Yao with a forced breath.

"Okay, you're awesome."

Bai Yao was defeated by Lin Xuan, and he accepted his defeat wholeheartedly.

"But is this place really that big?"

When I rode the Pidgeot over from mid-air, I could barely catch a glimpse of the entire ice lake. Bai Yao had seen this place in some reports before, but now it is very different from the photos in those reports.

"This is called an ice lake?"

Bai Yao pointed to the boundless lake, then glanced at the small ice floe less than ten meters long under her feet, and said to Lin Xuan with some doubt, "Are you sure we haven't gone to the wrong place?"

"Ahem, a Daruma baboon popped up here a while ago. When it was about to be defeated, it entered Daruma mode, and then it turned into this~"

Lin Xuan said with a hint of helplessness.

Galarian Darmanitan is a very special Pokémon. Normally it is an Ice-type, but a very small number of Darmanitans possess the Darman Mode ability. In special circumstances, they can enter Darman Mode, which not only changes their abilities and makes them stronger, but also changes their type from Ice to Ice and Fire.

This extremely contradictory attribute is currently only possessed by the Dharma baboon.

The key point is that the Daruma was quite strong; it took several trainers working together to subdue it. As for why the Daruma came from the seabed... Lin Xuan had no idea.

Given the current situation, Lin Xuan probably wouldn't be too surprised if a Kyogre suddenly appeared at any time.

"But how are we supposed to patrol like this?" Bai Yao thought for a moment, then her eyes lit up. She pointed to the Pidgeot behind her and was about to speak again, "How about we just..."

"I think I'll stick to sitting on my Gyarados!"

Lin Xuan took the initiative and immediately released Gyarados.

When did you catch Gyarados?

Bai Yao first looked at Gyarados with some surprise, then asked with some disappointment, after all, sitting on Gyarados is not as exciting as Pidgeot.

"A few days ago, right when the incident at the Ice Lake occurred."

Even so, Bai Yao still seemed unable to give up her idea of ​​riding Pidgeot, and finally sat on Gyarados after Lin Xuan had eaten for three days.

However, Pidgeot continued to survey the situation for the two of them from the air. Bai Yao's Pidgeot has the ability of Sharp Eyes, which means that its accuracy will not be reduced in any way and it will ignore the increase in the target's evasion rate.

In addition, it can greatly enhance the Pokémon's observation ability, essentially making it a weaker version of Perception in the wild.

Of Pidgeot's three useless traits, this is the most useful; the other two, Stagger and Muscular, are truly useless.

Therefore, Pidgeot's real chance to turn things around still lies in Mega Evolution. Not only will its stats increase dramatically, but its ability will also become Unguarded. While not extremely powerful, it's still a pretty good ability.

With Bai Yao's addition, the "cleanup" work in the vicinity became smoother. The eagle could detect the enemy's location from a great distance, and Lin Xuan even felt that it was stronger than the cursed doll with the ability to detect special characteristics.

This can only be described as a difference in strength. After traveling with Bai Yao for a while, Bai Yao also suggested that they split up temporarily, as it would be too inefficient for the two of them to stay together.

Although Lin Xuan thought that she might be because riding Gyarados wasn't as exciting as Pidgeot, she also thought that what she said made a lot of sense, so she agreed and arranged to meet again at a certain time and place.

After Bai Yao left, Lin Xuan took over the entire space on the Gyarados head and lay down.

"Ah~ You're definitely the most comfortable one to wear~"

Gyarados seemed to be deliberately taking Lin Xuan's needs into consideration, so it wasn't swimming very fast. Plus, Gyarados has the ability to fly, so it could fly directly over ice surfaces, which was perfect! Lin Xuan was so lazy that she didn't even want to move.

"Roar!" (*^_^*)

Upon hearing Lin Xuan's praise, Gyarados once again revealed a goofy smile, which earned it a disdainful look from Xiao Dian beside it.

Hmph! So what if it's a little bigger?

As Xiaodian flew, he patted his wing membranes. It wasn't impossible for him to carry Lin Xuan with him. Although strength wasn't his forte, it was still considerable, and taking off with Lin Xuan wouldn't be a problem. The key issue was that Lin Xuan probably wouldn't want to be suspended in mid-air...

The subsequent process was no different from the previous days; Lin Xuan continued patrolling and training her Pokémon. After separating from Bai Yao, Lin Xuan quickly encountered her first target.

"Blastoise? You actually encountered a Pokémon like that?"

Looking at the turtle shell floating on the water, Lin Xuan immediately recognized it as the shell of a Blastoise.

Blastoise is a Pokémon that rarely lives in the wild. Most of them are Squirtles hatched in the League's breeding center. After all, it is one of the three classic starter Pokémon, although it is somewhat overshadowed by the two Sunny Day Pokémon above it.

Lin Xuan remembered that she had made a video specifically about Blastoise, but if it had just used Swift Swim, it could have taken off directly into the air. Instead, it used Rain Disk, which was completely useless.

Blastoise seemed to have noticed Lin Xuan as well, looking up at him. Between trainers, a glance is often the signal to start a battle, and the same applies to trainers and their Pokémon. Lin Xuan had already prepared to jump off Gyarados and send him into battle, but then…

"Water~"

Blastoise raised its head and glanced at Lin Xuan, then decisively buried itself again, seemingly having just woken up, showing no intention of paying any attention to Lin Xuan.

"Wow~ This isn't going to follow the rules!"

"Roar?"

Should I go up and give him a bite?

Gyarados said this, even opening its mouth wide to show off its incredibly sharp teeth.

Lin Xuan blinked, unsure of what to do. After all, the other party seemed quite well-behaved and hadn't provoked him. Would it be impolite to just let Gyarados go up and bite him?

"and many more."

Lin Xuan shook her head, not letting Gyarados make the first move.

"Buy?"

Eevee emerged from the side, taking out the remaining Poké Balls from Lin Xuan's waist.

Why don't we try throwing it out?

Lin Xuan simply rolled her eyes at the guy, then said:

"It's not that simple. Even if that guy is too lazy to pay attention to us, he can't just throw a Poké Ball at us and not be able to do anything about it, right?"

Then Lin Xuan saw that Eevee seemed to have a somewhat unconvinced expression, and directly pulled the Poké Ball from Lin Xuan, then wrapped it in psychic power and threw it towards Blastoise.

huh~

With a flash of red light, Blastoise was captured into its Poké Ball, while Lin Xuan remained completely unmoved.

You're not some superhuman like Xiao Hao, how could you possibly subdue someone just like that?

However, Eevee's actions might provoke Blastoise, giving him a legitimate reason to go and fight it.

"Buyi~"

Just as Lin Xuan was thinking, Ibra tugged at his sleeve and pointed to a spot not far away.

[Successfully tamed!]

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan abruptly raised her head and looked at the Poké Ball not far away. Sure enough, it hadn't been burst open; instead, it lay there steadily. The disappearance of the red light on it indicated one thing... Eevee had been successfully captured!

Lin Xuan: ? ? ? ?

Does this work too?

Lin Xuan felt her worldview had been shaken, while Eevee rushed over, picked up the Poké Ball, hugged it to its chest, and then floated in front of Lin Xuan with a smug look on its face.

"Buibui!"

See! I told you it would work!

"This Blastoise... seems a bit too laid-back."

Lin Xuan took the Poké Ball from Eevee's hand, her lips twitching slightly as she spoke.

Lin Xuan found it hard to imagine how this guy had stayed in the wild for so long without being taken away by a passing trainer. He was captured without even having to put up a fight.

However, being too laid-back isn't a good thing either; most trainers prefer Pokémon that are diligent and hardworking.

However, this Blastoise also has the strength of a two-star trainer, which is quite good in terms of talent. If it encounters a suitable trainer, it may be able to improve further.

Trainers can choose to keep the Pokémon they capture from the frozen lake or hand them over to the League for processing. Handing them over to the League naturally comes with its own benefits, including rewards and contribution records, but Lin Xuan doesn't seem to care much about these things.

So I was thinking about whether there was a suitable person among the people I knew who I could give this Blastoise to.

Just as Lin Xuan was about to put away the Blastoise, Eevee snatched it away with its psychic powers.

"Boy!"

I've tamed it!

Eevee looked dissatisfied. Suddenly, she wondered if she might have some potential as a trainer.

"I paid for the Poké Ball!"

"Bu...Bui!"

I threw it!

"What do you need this guy for?"

"Buyi~"

I believe I also have the potential to become a master trainer!

"...Absolutely impossible!"

Lin Xuan almost laughed at Ibu's words, but quickly realized what he meant.

"Hmm... you can have this Blastoise too."

Ibrahimovic was a little surprised that Lin Xuan suddenly agreed, but before he could finish his sentence, Lin Xuan immediately added:

"But from now on, you'll be responsible for all of Blastoise's food and resources. And as a trainer, you should be more independent. So, from now on..."
