What should I do if my pet loves watching anime?

Fifteen minutes later, the side door of the lecture hall opened.

A woman who looked to be around forty years old, dressed in a simple beige lab coat, with her long hair neatly tied up in a bun at the back of her head, walked in accompanied by a young assistant.

Her face was elegant, her eyes gentle yet revealing a wise insight, her steps were composed, and she exuded a calm yet powerful aura.

It was Dr. Dongfang Weixi.

The lecture hall fell silent instantly, and all eyes were on her.

Dr. Dongfang walked to the center of the stage, nodded slightly to the audience, and without any further pleasantries, began to speak. His voice was clear and calm, yet carried a peculiar penetrating power:

"Good morning, everyone. I am Dongfang Weixi. I am very happy to communicate with the future Pokémon researchers of Linhai City. Today, I would like to discuss the topic with you—"

The curved screen behind her lit up, displaying the title:

[Bridging the Barriers of Attributes: Conflicts, Coexistence, and Co-evolution of the Spirit Energy System]

"In traditional Pokémon studies, type is the core characteristic and barrier of Pokémon power. Fire-type Pokémon control flames, Water-type Pokémon manipulate water, Electric-type Pokémon wield lightning... The interplay between types forms the basis of our understanding of Pokémon battles and ecology."

Dr. Dongfang paused, his gaze sweeping across the audience.

"But as the research went deeper, we found that attributes are not an insurmountable wall."

Many Pokémon acquire new attributes during evolution, some can learn non-type moves, and in many individuals, we have even observed the coexistence of different attribute energies within their bodies.

Her tone was calm, but every word seemed to carry weight.

"Today, we will not talk about those profound theoretical formulas, nor will we discuss complex experimental designs."

Let's start with a few basic questions: Why can't most Pokémon easily learn moves that aren't their own type? Why does forcibly learning a move often lead to energy conflicts or even backlash?

And is it possible to find a balance point for energies of different attributes within a spirit, even producing an effect greater than the sum of its parts?

The students below the stage held their breath and listened intently, even Zhou Mingxuan abandoned his feigned familiarity and listened attentively.

Dr. Dongfang began to explain using case studies.

She showed a graph of dramatic fluctuations in the energy monitoring data of a baby dragon as it tried to learn how to use a water gun, visually demonstrating the energy turbulence and cell damage risks caused by the incompatibility of water and fire.

She then demonstrated the subtle shifts and adaptive changes in the energy field of an Eevee when it came into contact with different type evolution stones, explaining the relationship between type affinity and evolutionary selection.

She also mentioned several extremely rare cases of individuals who successfully mastered powerful cross-attribute skills, and analyzed the energy buffer zones or attribute-compatible organs that may exist in their bodies.

Each case study is accompanied by detailed data, clear charts, and insightful analysis.

Gu Beiri listened intently, his pen flying across his notebook as he jotted down notes, occasionally referring to the materials he had brought, his mind sparking with inspiration.

Many of Dr. Dongfang's views coincide with his observations and hypotheses, but are more systematic and in-depth, and also provide many detection angles and theoretical support that he had never thought of.

The lecture lasted for nearly two hours.

At the end, enthusiastic applause rang out in the auditorium.

Dr. Dongfang bowed slightly: "Thank you. Next is the free exchange time. Everyone can ask questions about what we just discussed or about problems encountered in their research."

I will answer to the best of my ability.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Mingxuan was the first to raise his hand, making a large gesture as if afraid that others would not see it.

Dr. Dongfang's gaze fell on him, and he nodded.

Zhou Mingxuan stood up, cleared his throat, and deliberately used what he thought was a calm tone:

"Hello Dr. Dongfang, I am Zhou Mingxuan."

My research focuses on optimizing Eevee's multi-attribute evolutionary path.

My Eevee has already mastered Shadow Ball and Quick Attack, and I'm currently trying to teach it the Fire-type move Ember to broaden its offensive capabilities and prepare it for future Flareon evolutions.

However, during training, I found that Eevee had a very obvious aversion to fire-type energy. Even with the use of a fire-type energy guide, its learning efficiency was extremely low, and it would experience short-term energy disturbances after training.

Doctor, for Pokémon like Eevee, which has complex type affinity and diverse evolution paths, are there any more efficient and safer methods besides the usual energy guides and gradual training when guiding them to learn non-type moves?

For example, is there a neutralizing agent for certain properties, or a special training environment?

The question was quite professional, and it was indeed a problem he was facing.

After listening, Dr. Dongfang thought for a moment and replied:

"Zhou's question is very representative."

For Pokémon like Eevee, their bodies inherently possess the potential for evolution into multiple attributes, and their energy systems are relatively sensitive and unstable.

Forcibly infusing energy with incompatible properties can indeed easily trigger conflict.

"The neutralizing agents you mentioned do exist in theory, but they are more for emergency treatment after an energy conflict has already occurred, rather than for prevention or to aid learning. The mainstream approach at present is still gradual infiltration and environmental simulation."

She explained several methods in detail:

Use extremely low concentrations of the target attribute element to gently contact the spirit over a long period of time, allowing the spirit's body to gradually adapt.

Training is conducted in a special environment rich in natural energy that embodies the target attributes...

Zhou Mingxuan took notes carefully, a smug look on his face as he sat down.

Following that, several more students asked questions, covering a wide range of topics, including skill inheritance, trait awakening, and the determination of evolutionary thresholds.

Dr. Dongfang answered all questions patiently, speaking clearly and logically, and frequently citing the latest research findings, which greatly benefited both the questioners and the listeners.

Gu Beiri did not raise his hand.

With half of the discussion time gone, fewer and fewer people raised their hands.

Gu Beiri took a deep breath and raised his hand.

His movements were inconspicuous, but Dr. Dongfang seemed to have noticed the boy sitting in the back, engrossed in taking notes, his eyes shining with focused concentration.

Her gaze fell on Gu Beiri, and she nodded: "Please speak, student."

Gu Beiri stood up. His voice wasn't loud, but it was steady and clear:

"Hello Dr. Dongfang, I am Gu Beiri."

My research topic is the energy conflict and reconciliation mechanism in cross-type skill learning, and I'm currently using my sheep learning the Grass-type skill "Drafting" and the Rock-type skill "Power Gem" as specific examples.

He paused, subconsciously touched the Poké Ball of the fluffy sheep, felt the vibration coming from the Poké Ball, and then spoke.

His little action did not escape Dongfang Weixi's notice.

"In my research, I observed a phenomenon that may differ from conventional understanding: after the sheep initially mastered these two non-native skills, the electric energy field in its body did not produce a continuous and intense confrontation with the grass and rock energy. Instead, it exhibited a subtle state of parallelism and isolation."

Grass and Rock-type energy seem to be confined to specific, narrow channels, not interfering with the main Electric-type energy flow, and only interacting briefly at the moment of skill activation.

He took out the document he had compiled, turned to the page with the key data charts, and although he couldn't see the details clearly from a distance, he pointed out the key points:

"This is a monitoring chart of energy fluctuations in a specific area of ​​the sheep's body when it uses the Grass; this is when it uses the Power Gem."

You may notice that the active regions of non-local energy are very limited and have very little overlap with the high-energy regions of the electric system.

The lecture hall fell silent.

Many students looked surprised or skeptical.

After mastering cross-attribute skills, the energy doesn't conflict? And it can even be used in parallel? This sounds somewhat counterintuitive.

Zhou Mingxuan curled his lip and whispered to the person next to him, "Trying to attract attention."

Dr. Dongfang listened very attentively. She leaned forward slightly and her sharp gaze swept across the chart in Gu Beiri's hand. Although she couldn't see the specific data clearly, her expression became obviously serious.

"Gu, the phenomenon you described is very... interesting." She carefully chose her words.

How can you be sure that this parallelism and isolation is not a temporary, unstable illusion?

Or is it simply a stage where the energy conflict is suppressed and has not yet erupted?

Furthermore, is there a more specific physiological structure or energy pathway basis for the particular channel you mentioned?

The problem gets straight to the heart of the matter.
