Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 219 Partner Stone, the item that stitches together all the battle systems (Seeking monthly votes)

After Dynamaxing against Naruto, Yu returned to the villa and organized the data she had collected during the battle using her Rotom on her phone.

Mingyou was pestered by Latias and the others, who wanted to experience Dynamaxing and growing bigger. After a while, he promised to take them to play Dynamax later, and only then was he able to break free. He also unexpectedly gained a card.

[Combo Style Martial Arts Bear Master (lv1): After using on a watermelon seed, the type changes to a water-type watermelon seed. Consuming it can improve one's mental state.]

"Watermelons will be available to eat in a while."

Mingyou looked at the card and smiled calmly. The reason was that after the Martial Arts Bear Master was defeated by the Moon Bear, he actually developed respect for him. Perhaps this is the respect that martial artists have for the strong.

He put away the cards and, seeing that Xiaoyou seemed to have finished her work, walked up to her, intending to ask about her unauthorized modification and development of the new Max Bracers.

To his surprise, the principal of Blueberry Academy was also involved. Although he didn't know him, Xiao Zhao and the others were at Blueberry Academy, and he would go there sooner or later.

Xiaoyou put down her phone and took a breath when asked about Mingyou's question. She usually wouldn't tell others these things, but she trusted Datoucai's judgment of people, which was why she trusted Mingyou so much.

Then I can talk about this too!

"Actually, it's like this..."

Xiaoyou began to speak earnestly...

The current Max Bracers were developed in collaboration between Dr. Mulan and Loth, the chairman of the Marocmon Corporation, which practically controls all aspects of people's livelihood in the Galar region.

Although they allow the private sector to manufacture and use the Max Bracers, the patents remain with them.

After all, Dynamax can only be used in Galar, and they "rule" the Galar region, including the Pokémon battling industry, so they don't care about you at all.

But once the other party finds out that the Max Bracers can be used outside the Galar region, the result is predictable. She might simply disappear without a trace, and the person who sponsored her is the headmaster of Blueberry Academy.

Blueberry Academy Principal Silan is an old friend of Mastedt, who, as a former champion of Galar, has no good feelings towards the Galar League. He and his wife, Miye, have always taken good care of Xiaoyou, so they would naturally help keep it a secret and recommend Silan to her.

After all, you can't do research without funding, and who among normal people could afford to buy so many Wishing Stars? Xi Lan, on the other hand, has no shortage of money, so the two parties chose to collaborate on the development...

However, the support provided was limited to financial assistance. After all, Blueberry Academy didn't have the resources to challenge the leading industry in such a large region as Galar. Therefore, Yu could only proceed with caution in this matter, and even Champion Leon was unaware of it.

After the whole story was explained, Mingyou nodded gently: "I see... After all, President Rose's power is indeed great. In short, just keep the secret. It is indeed very dangerous to take out this kind of thing. It can easily be used by people with ulterior motives. I will not use it casually."

He understood the other person's concerns, but at the same time, he became increasingly curious about Blueberry Academy.

The Crystallization ability, which is exclusive to Padia and Kitakami, can be used at Blueberry Academy, and now even Dynamax is... This school is serious, trying to create the first trainer school that allows the use of all battle systems.

The principal is indeed very idealistic, but according to what Xiao Zhao told him, he has only achieved the ability to freely use the crystallization energy at Blueberry Academy.

In short, we must continue our efforts...

If there were something that could integrate all four different battle systems, it would surely excite the whole world, wouldn't it?

Looking at the Taijing Bead in her hand and the giant wristband on her wrist, Mingyou was suddenly taken aback by her own astonishing wisdom, but she felt that there really was such a thing in her memory...

He was recalling the events carefully when, suddenly, the Queen of the Brilliant Crown floated over, put her hands behind her back, and said, "Now that the data has been collected, it's time to get down to business. As my employees, you can't slack off. Come and help me train the new recruits."

"Haha, you really are impatient!"

Xiaoyou smiled and stood up, taking out her Rotom tablet from her backpack. Looking at Ralts, she said, "Let's go then... Although we didn't bring a tutorial book, Psychic-type Pokémon generally learn faster than humans!"

"Ralu~"

Seeing them heading to the arcade together, Mingyou, who was about to cook, suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, what game are you guys making? Now that the actors are all here, you can tell us, right?"

Hearing this, Xiaoyou stopped, opened her arms, and laughed loudly, replying, "Does that even need to be said? Of course it's an open-world Pokémon game! Didn't Turnip tell you that?"

"Well...it didn't say that either."

Mingyou was slightly taken aback, then suddenly realized what was going on. She quickly looked at the Queen of the Bejeweled and asked, "Are you sure you're okay? Or are you planning to copy...?"

"How can you call our Pokémon stuff plagiarism? It's called borrowing!"

King Lei Guan spoke with righteous indignation, a glint of authority in his eyes, and continued, "Since this is our first time making a game, of course we should stick to what we're most familiar with and what's most popular. If we generate buzz, we won't have to worry about a lack of buyers!"

Upon hearing this, Mingyou felt a sense of unease and quickly exclaimed, "GAME FREAK's technical skills are indeed lacking, but you can't just copy them directly, can you? Besides, where are you going to release this game? It's impossible on the Switch. Are you going to make it an open-world mobile game for Rotom?"

Calyrex shook its head and said seriously, "We don't necessarily have to completely copy the traditional Pokémon gameplay of Game Freak. We can learn from other games and create our own ideal Pokémon game!"

Before the words were even finished, Xiaoyou excitedly continued, "And we've already planned it all out: the first stage is to humbly learn from others, the second stage is to reach the top of the popularity charts, the third stage is to see explosive sales, the fourth stage is to deny plagiarism, the fifth stage is that without us, who would know about GAME FREAK? The sixth stage is that GAME FREAK plagiarized us, and then the seventh stage..."

"Stop, stop, stop! What kind of game template formula are you using?! I feel like I'm being ripped off! I'm the boss, don't mess with me!"

Mingyou quickly interrupted their plans for the future of the game. No matter how she thought about it, it was too terrifying, and her unease grew stronger.

He then coughed lightly and said, "But I think this idea is good. It allows for some unique gameplay... I'll see if I can find a way to get them to grant me permission in a while."

Because of the Team Rocket piracy incident, Naruto isn't really into these kinds of things now, although... well, maybe the Max Gauntlet is too!

Unauthorized, clandestine modifications and research and development...

Mentioning this, Xiaoyou's excitement faded, and she gently shook her head: "It can't be completely said that way. The development of the Maxim Band relied entirely on Dr. Mulan's decades of research, but she didn't have enough funds to verify her research, so she could only collaborate with the Marocmon Group to realize her dream."

"But the Marocmon Group only wants to keep this power in their own hands, using this research to control Dynamax energy to develop the Galar region... Dr. Mulan, on the other hand, wants to make this research available to the public. She helped me a lot when I was modifying the Dynamax Band!"

She said all this to help Dr. Mulan, but unfortunately some people are too selfish. They have swallowed up almost all the research results on Dynamax, which makes her very angry.

Therefore, she plans to abandon the Max Bracers after her research and development is completed and replace them with other items, so that the Marocomon Corporation will have no way to hold her accountable from a legal standpoint.

"Wait... find a substitute?"

Upon hearing her mention this, Naruto stroked his chin, lost in thought... He seemed to grasp something in his mind, something that could replace the Max Gauntlets...

That's right!

That's the "Partner Stone!"

An ultimate Frankenstein's monster that possesses the effects of Key Stone, Z-Ring, Max Bracer, and Crystal Bead!

Mingyou does recall having such a thing, along with a matching "rhythm set of moves." However, he is not entirely sure how to create it yet, as it is a specialty of Pasio.

All I remember is that the raw stone of the Partner Stone is very similar in shape to the crystal of the Taijing, and it shines with a dazzling seven-colored light. But the artificial island of Pasio does not exist in this world... But anyway, I have such an idea and a concept.

That's definitely possible!

This "Partner Stone" is definitely something that all trainers who love battling dream of!

After all, Mega Evolution requires Keystones and Evolution Stones, which either depend on luck or money.

While Z-Crystals are plentiful in the Alola region, the crucial Z-Ring manufacturing technology is entirely controlled by the island rulers, who basically only produce and sell their own products.

As mentioned earlier, Dynamax is controlled by Rose's Marocmon Group.

As for crystallization... although the technology for making crystal beads is in the hands of the Padia Pokémon League, they just give them away as gifts everywhere. Moreover, the crystal energy that is the principle of crystallization has not yet been fully understood.

"Hmm... Yu is already researching Dynamax, so if I want to be a Partner Stone, I just need to figure out the principles of Mega Evolution, Z-Moves, and Crystallization!"

Thinking about these things, Mingyou's heart gradually became restless, but he quickly calmed down. After all, it was just a thought; it would be extremely difficult to implement, and he didn't have that much time and money to do these things.

"Sigh... It's rare to have a small goal."

After all, if something like the Partner Stone were developed in Kitakami Township, trainers all over the world would be in an uproar, and it would be hard for it not to become famous.

He didn't tell Yu about his idea of ​​the Partner Stone. It was something unrealistic to begin with, so he decided to continue collecting data on Dynamax for her, as he had promised her.
