Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

This is unfair!

While being held in Lin Xuan's arms, Ibu protested Lin Xuan's brutality, but it was to no avail. In the end, Lin Xuan forcibly left it outside and held it in his arms.

However, Ibrahimovic wasn't as concerned as before at this point, since no matter what, Lin Xuan was still the one who suffered the most, and at least there was someone there to cover for him!

With this in mind, Eevee became indifferent. As for Tiny—this guy is quite clever; he usually doesn't like staying inside his Poké Ball, so he went back inside as well.

This is why Ibrahimovic was shouting from the side.

After all, Xiao Dian drew quite a lot last night, but Lin Xuan just happened to pick on her!

“You drew at least twice as much as him! I don’t care, you’re staying outside with me today.”

Without saying a word, Lin Xuan went back to the Mr. Mime doll and started drawing lots.

We agreed on it last night: Ibrahimovic would draw five numbers, and Lin Xuan would draw five numbers, to see who had better luck!

The six numbers were drawn quickly, and after the numbers were taken back, the Mr. Mime simply carried the items away.

"Hey, isn't the trial about to start? Shouldn't we go get the Pokémon?"

Lin Xuan asked the Mr. Mime with some confusion, and the Mr. Mime simply pointed to a small room on the side and said:

"Momo!"

The trial will be postponed slightly today; he needs to speak with you.

The "he" that the Mr. Mist was referring to was, of course, Yu Xian. After saying all this to Lin Xuan, the Mr. Mist ran away. She had to do all the cleaning in such a big place. She was busy every day!

However, both Mr. Mime and Lin Xuan had noted down the numbers they had drawn earlier, and they only needed to go and pick up the Pokémon later, so Lin Xuan didn't care and went straight to knock on Yu Xian's door.

"senior?"

However, as soon as Lin Xuan knocked on the door, with just a little force, the door opened by itself, revealing the scene inside.

Yu Xian was sitting at his desk, wearing glasses, and writing something with a pen in his hand. He only looked up at Lin Xuan after seeing him.

"Oh, Lin Xuan, come in."

Lin Xuan carried Eevee inside and looked around. This was the first time he had entered Yu Xian's room. The overall layout was not much different from his own room, except for a few more personal items and signs of long-term residence. Overall, it was quite tidy—although Lin Xuan thought this might be thanks to Mr. Mime.

"Mr. Mime said the trial is temporarily postponed?"

Lin Xuan asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why do we have to postpone this for no reason?"

Upon hearing Lin Xuan's words, Yu Xian put down the pen he was holding and looked directly at him.

Do you remember the underground world I took you to a couple of days ago?

"Hmm, what happened?"

"That's not the case. After all, I've lived here for many years and have considered all the issues that need to be considered. There won't be any wild Pokémon in the vicinity that can just invade this place."

"That is……"

"A little trouble."

Yu Xian rubbed his temples, looking a bit of a headache, but he didn't look like it was a "minor problem".

"Not all the Pokémon here belong to me. Most of them are wild Pokémon that live here because they like them. Their arrival also helps to enrich the environment here, so I didn't refuse them. Over the years, that team has gradually grown."

"Isn't this a good thing?"

"If it remains within a controllable range, that's certainly a good thing."

Yu Xian sighed, and then began to explain to Lin Xuan in detail:

"Because there are so many Pokémon coming, some of them occasionally have conflicts, or even natural enemies. So I can only try my best to ease the conflicts. But this happens every year, so the Pokémon needed for the trial have basically all been used to deal with the troublesome ones."

If possible, Yu Xian would certainly hope that all the Pokémon here could get along well, but that is obviously impossible.

For example, the two groups that had this conflict were the classic "Soul Hook" clan and the "Little Diamond" family.

The Soul-Eyed can even feed on tiny diamond fragments, so the conflict between the two groups goes without saying; they are complete natural enemies.

"How long have they been living here?"

"Hmm...it's been about three or four years, not too early."

After recalling for a moment, Yu Xian said, and Lin Xuan began to admire him even more.

After all, it's quite remarkable that the Little Diamond family and the Soul Hook family have stayed together for so long without any major problems arising.

The difficulty is comparable to putting a mouse and a cat together and expecting them to get along.

Do you really think all cats and mice are Tom and Jerry?

Has it always been like this?

"There's no way to avoid it; it's Pokémon's nature. It's normal if one or two Pokémon occasionally go against their nature, but it's not impossible for an entire species to follow suit—it would take far too long."

This relationship between heaven and earth is indeed difficult to change, even though Yu Xian, as a top breeder, has been trying his best to adjust the relationship between the two sides.

"Take advantage of this time, you can ask me anything you want to know. At least in terms of breeding, I have some experience."

Yu Xian said softly, but he was clearly being modest.

You call this "having some insights"?

But after hearing Yu Xian's words, Lin Xuan simply stopped being polite and went straight back to his room to take out the plan he had devised for the Four-jawed Needle Dragon last night.

"Wait a mininute!"

Lin Xuan rushed back to her room, grabbed the item, and immediately returned, handing the notebook to Yu Xian.

"Is this the final training plan you specified for the Jaw-Tac-Stegosaurus?"

Yu Xian guessed it at a glance, since much of the content was related to "poison" and "dragons," which was obvious to him.

Yu Xian picked up Lin Xuan's notebook and flipped through it briefly. Since Lin Xuan hadn't written much, just a general overview, Yu Xian finished reading it in no time and then gave his suggestions.

"We don't need to separate the training of Dragon and Poison attributes too much. We can try to combine them, since they are both powers of the Jaw-Stinger."

"But... there's no precedent for this kind of cultivation before, so I'm having a bit of a headache now."

Whether it's Ibrahimovic or Little Point, there are actually many "case studies" to refer to, and in addition, they have fought their way through, so many things have been determined.

But Naganadel was different. It grew too fast during its time with Poison Baby and didn't have many battles to prepare for its growth, which made its path afterward much less clear than that of Spotty, Eevee, or even Razor.

Regarding what Lin Xuan said, Yu Xian quickly offered another suggestion—

"Although no one has experience breeding Naganadel before, Naganadel isn't the only Poison/Dragon-type Pokémon, is it?"

A slight smile appeared on Yu Xian's face, and Lin Xuan immediately understood what he meant.

"You mean, referencing the breeding methods of the Poisonous Algae Dragon?"

Lin Xuan had thought about these things before, but although they had the same attributes, the breeding directions of the Poison Algae Dragon and the Four-Jaw Needle Dragon were completely different.

The Poisonous Algae Dragon is slow, and its main advantage is its durability; everything else is just average. On the other hand, the Jawless Needle Dragon is a typical example of a high-attack, high-speed dragon.

"I can see that too. Naganadel's size means it's not a Pokémon with good durability, but—since they have the same type, there are still many things we can refer to."

At this point, Yu Xian stood up, went to the bookshelf, took out a book, and handed it to Lin Xuan.

It was only then that Lin Xuan noticed Yu Xian's bookshelf. It was more like a large number of notebooks than books, and they were even similar in style, so it was highly likely that the contents were all handwritten by Yu Xian himself.

Yu Xian first opened it himself and glanced at it to make sure it was correct before handing it over to Lin Xuan.

“I also bred a poisonous algae dragon before. This is one I kept from back then. You can take a picture of it for reference.”

Lin Xuan opened the notebook. Judging from its appearance, it must have been quite old, with the pages starting to yellow, but the writing inside was still quite clear. It has to be said that Yu Xian's handwriting was much better than Lin Xuan's.

"This was originally recorded by me twenty years ago. Many things have probably changed over the years. You can refer to it, but don't copy it exactly. After all, there are significant differences between the four-jawed needle dragon and the poisonous algae dragon."

Lin Xuan nodded in understanding. He had seen quite a few things from just those two glances, such as a toxin formula that was very suitable for the Poison Algae Dragon.

The notes record how to combine with one's own dragon-type energy to make the poison more powerful, and even how the poison can have a reverse effect on the dragon-type power.

Lin Xuan was captivated by the book after just a couple of glances; for a Poison Algae Dragon trainer, this book was a treasure trove.

"But I never expected that you had actually cultivated poisonous algae dragons before."

The Pokémon Toxapex is not common in China, and it was not on the previous list, which is why Lin Xuan was somewhat surprised.

"Well, as a Pokémon breeder, of course I have to try out all kinds of Pokémon!"

Yu Xian said this, and if other breeders outside heard him say this, they would probably be ashamed to death. After all, for most breeders, it's already good enough to breed a few Pokémon or even just a few types of Pokémon in their lifetime, but Yu Xian's range of knowledge is just too wide.

Lin Xuan even wondered if he could pull out a Paradoxical Seed and have a long chat with it.

Then Lin Xuan and Yu Xian discussed the situation of the Naganadel for a long time, so much so that Eevee in Lin Xuan's arms got sleepy and tried to sneak back to its room, but Lin Xuan immediately put it in a chokehold. Anyway, this guy is not going anywhere today!

Lin Xuan was still seriously discussing the Naganadel with Yu Xian, which made Eevee too embarrassed to make any big moves, so it was stuck in place.

This is deliberate revenge for last night! It's clearly Lin Xuan's bad luck that he lost so many times and blamed it all on me.

As for the clever little one… well, according to Yu Xian, today's trial can't be held, so I might as well go back to my room and sleep. I played with Lin Xuan for a long time yesterday, and I'm still a bit sleepy—

If Lin Xuan hadn't insisted on playing until late at night, he wouldn't have gotten so many things on his face. So in the end, it's all Lin Xuan's own fault!

After Lin Xuan and Yu Xian finished talking about the Four-jawed Needle Dragon, they even chatted about Xiao Dian and the others.

However, even Yu Xian had nothing to say about Xiaodian and Yibu, and could only shake his head.

"Your two Pokémon are already quite mature, and they've taken paths that no one has ever walked before, and they've even gone very far. Even I can't give you any advice; it's up to you."

However, there's nothing we can do about Eevee and Tiny, but we do have something to say about Gyarados.
