Pokémon: The Genetic Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off.

Fuhiko stared blankly at Natsuno's series of actions, as if he had used magic to pull a Pokémon out of the egg.

"Oddish, Onoko, how come she's a heterochromatic?"

The two girls marveled at the little blue sphere, and Xiao Cai and Xiao Fen also came over.

Tutu dogs are only 1.2 meters tall on average, and Xiao Cai watched it while kneeling on a cushioned stool.

The egg cell laboriously turned itself in the opposite direction, and then, as if guided by instinct, rolled and gurgled as it moved towards Xiao Cai.

Xiao Cai stared at the little guy with curiosity, reached out her hands to press him down, and the other person also raised his eyes to stare at Xiao Cai's face.

Natsuno stroked his chin, recalling the knowledge he had learned, and suddenly looked up at Tomohiko: "Tomohiko, do cell spheres use superpowers to move?"

Fu Yan blinked, nodded, then turned to look at the little guy who was held down by Xiao Cai and couldn't move, his brows furrowing.

"Yes, his other two brothers use a weak superpower to float, so why can't this guy?"

No mole, let's have some solid jokes.

Even a single ovum with an average height of 0.3 meters and an average weight of 1 kg can float off the ground, so what else can't?

Natsuno finally understood what was going on with the third gene mutation in that little blue sphere.

Because the superpowers are constantly being supplied to the body's cells, the body's own superpowers are insufficient, making it difficult to hatch.

After all, a single ovum is a perfectly round, smooth sphere. Without superpowers, how could it possibly hatch on its own?

Goodness, the first Pokémon in history to hatch but be unable to hatch on its own has appeared.

Xiao Cai is holding her dog's tail in front of the little guy to tease him into moving forward and turning.

At first, the little guy rolled crookedly, but after a while, he got the hang of it and rolled in a straight line.

Xiao Cai changed her strategy again, teasing the little guy to learn to turn around on his own.

Fortunately, the little guy's superpowers are very weak, but not nonexistent. He does have the superpower to control his own rotation, but the speed isn't very fast.

Seeing this, Little Pink got excited and started teasing the table by wagging its 1-meter-long tail.

Natsuno was still thinking about how to cover up the fact that he knew the ball had hatched but couldn't break out of its shell, and how to hide it from the system.

Tomohiko looked at Natsuno with admiration: "Wow! Ono-chan, no, Natsuno-nii! You really are the chosen one! Even an egg that couldn't hatch would hatch under your hands! Amazing!"

Xia Ye shook his head and told a joke that no one in this world could understand: "I am not the chosen one. The chosen ones are all inside Tiger Vanguard's belly."

“I’m just guessing. You’ve already ruled out most of the possibilities, so there’s one last possibility for me: a genetic mutation.”

“Your dad said the egg has a heartbeat and occasionally makes a faint sound, which is a strong indication that the little guy has likely hatched.”

"When I picked it up, I felt that it was different from an unhatched egg. Considering the possibility of something special, I decided to give it a try."

"Most people would never imagine that a Pokémon could hatch but be unable to break out of its shell on its own. I can hardly believe it."

"Anyway, this guy is definitely a genetic mutation. It's actually good for me to study it, since I'm quite good at it."

As Natsuno chatted with Tomohiko, he noticed that the little guy was rolling slower and slower, and his face began to show a tired expression. His body color also became a little lighter.

Xiao Cai, who was teasing him with his tail, also noticed and tilted her head to look at Xia Ye.

Xia Ye was delighted by Xiao Cai's adorable appearance and couldn't resist giving her a kiss on the cheek.

Xiao Cai, with a disgusted expression, released her tail and wiped the drool off her face with her hand.

Its tail swayed slightly behind it, clearly indicating that it was very happy.

Natsuno picked up the tired cell ball and placed it into the incubation device.

The device started silently, and through the glass, one could see faint superpower fluctuations being transmitted to the cell spheres, while the nutrient solution below was slowly decreasing.

Ten minutes later, the little guy's expression returned to its energetic state, and the color of his body surface also deepened.

Turn on the device, take the little guy out and put him on the table, and let Xiao Cai continue to tease the little guy as he rolls around.

Natsuno took a picture of the little guy and then started timing.

Tomohiko, standing to the side, watched Natsuno's actions with great interest and interest.

Half an hour later, the little guy got tired again, and no matter how much Xiao Cai tried to coax him, he stopped rolling.

Natsuno took another photo, then put the little guy into the incubator to recharge.

After carefully comparing the two photos taken at different times, Tomohiko was amazed.

"Does the color of the liquid in the middle of their bodies reflect their energy state? Pokémon are truly amazing creatures."

"Ten minutes of charging, half an hour of use? Looks like I'll have to carry this energy conversion device with me when I go out from now on."

Fu Yan nodded: "Ah, this energy device was made at a high price by Devon Technologies. It's their latest exclusive patent."

"If you need it, you can have them make a special shape. Anyway, the core components are the same. It's just a matter of changing the shell to make it more convenient for daily use."

Upon hearing this, Xia Ye's eyes lit up, and an idea automatically formed in his mind.

"Should I just build a Gundam-like design?"

Chapter 22 Dormitory Night Talk (Two-Thirds Version)

The idea king is always surrounded by new idea kings.

Natsuno's idea drew strong opposition from Tomiyako.

"What's the use of a Gundam? If it stands up, it'll just get beaten up."

"How about this, the single oocyte is a Psychic-type, and we have the shell of a Normal-type Pokémon, like Tauros."

"When the opponent sees that you are a Normal type, they pull out a Fighting type Pokémon, hoping to easily defeat you in one move."

"Wouldn't it be wonderful if this guy countered it with a superpower attack and sent it flying?"

Goodness, when the two of them talked like that, it was like two souls meeting in a dark valley, and inspiration flowed endlessly.

"Then we can upgrade it further and make it even bigger, like Snorlax, with the cockpit designed on its two feet."

"When most people attack, they choose to target the body. They never think that I put the core in my feet. Others attack my body and torso, but after a lot of damage, nothing happens."

"Wouldn't it be better if we could just wait in comfort, hiding in our own backyard until the opponent was exhausted, and then take them down with minimal effort?"

"Oh ho ho ho ho!"

Xia Sun Ce and Liu Li Zhou Yu exchanged a glance and revealed an indescribable smile.

"The battle arena is like Dragonite losing Extreme Speed, or Garchomp losing Dragon Dance."

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could an earth dragon not have a dragon dance? Even a lobster has a dragon dance."

At that moment, Sharky, who was playing a game on the second floor of his Cynthia Villa in Sinnoh while wearing special equipment, suddenly sneezed.

At this moment, Sharky is controlling Flygon, equipped with the moves Dragon Claw, Superpower, Earthquake, and Dragon Dance.

Dragon Dance is a must-have skill for Shark in the game; Shark only plays characters with Dragon Dance.

Shark seemed to have thought of something, imagining the opposing Arcanine as a mid-level researcher surnamed Xia, and unleashed all of its skills at it.

Even though the Arcanine had already fallen to the ground, Shark still managed to unleash an earthquake attack on the spot where it had fallen.

I'm so angry and cold. What era are we living in that people are still telling jokes about earthworms!

When will our earth dragons be able to stand up?!

Natsuno and Tomohiko got more and more into their conversation and started talking about how to efficiently defeat the opposing trainer in wild battles.

Luckily they were in Kanto; if they had gone to another region, they would have been beaten up, or even arrested by the police.

After all, although the Kanto government officially banned open-world fighting, the practice of open-world fighting was still very popular among the common people.

After all, open-world fighting is just too exciting, like dancing on a knife's edge, where one second you have a huge advantage and the next you're reversed and knocked to the ground.

Seeing that it was getting late, Natsuno was too lazy to go back to the research institute and decided to relive her university days with Tomohiko.

One was holding Xiao Cai, the other was curling up with Xiao Fen. The two lay on their respective beds, chatting happily across each other with the lights off.

They call it "two-thirds of the dorm late-night talk" because the other roommate wasn't there.

As they chatted, the conversation drifted to their other roommate.

"Where do you think that guy is right now?"

"I don't know. I haven't seen anything from him in the past two years. He said he was going back to his hometown of Shichidoshima to become a police officer, but he's probably still there."

"I don't know why this guy, from a family of police officers, would study at Yuhong University, and even major in biology. Shouldn't he be at police academy?"

"You don't know this, but families with a history of police officers usually send their children to police academies in advance, and then to regular universities they like, so that they can eventually go back to become police officers."

As we chatted, the conversation drifted back to history.

"You know, Guandu used to be all about open-world combat. Is it possible that Wujian was knocked down by that powerful member of the Dragon Envoy clan right from the start?"

"And then, to save face, they recorded it as Caterpie killing Dragonite when it was low on health? Please, your imagination is really rich. Wouldn't that be even more embarrassing?"

"Hey! That's not right, Onoko. The record of Dragonite being defeated by Caterpie with low health is a disgrace to Dragonite, while the record of being directly defeated by Wild Fighter is a disgrace to the Dragon Tamers clan. Which is more important?"

"He's a walking grass monster. You used to fail a lot of courses in school, I thought you weren't very bright, but I never expected that when it comes to gossiping like this, your brain is comparable to a Mega Metagross!"

"Hehe, you flatter me. Speaking of Metagross, my family recently hired two trainers with Shiny Metagross to help their Metagross bond with each other."

Hearing this, Natsuno sat bolt upright in bed: "So what you said back in college was true? You really want to build an all-Striped team? And all of them will be late-blooming Pokémon?"

"Yes, I reckon Shiny Metagross will be available soon. I haven't decided which other Pokémon to choose yet. Sigh, this is worrying."

Natsuno wanted nothing more than to jump over and slap Tomohiko, but then he decided to do what he wanted.

He rolled out of bed, pinned Fuyan down through the blanket, and started punching him repeatedly: "You damn fool, you got lucky and you're showing off in front of your brother! I'll beat you to death!"

Fu Yan begged for forgiveness repeatedly: "I was wrong, Brother Ye, Godfather! It's all thanks to your theories. If you hadn't said that heterochromia is also controlled by genes, I really wouldn't have thought of doing it."

"If it really is genetically controlled, then the chances of offspring being of different colors are highest if both parents are of different colors. I was actually joking before."

"This is actually an experiment to see how many eggs need to be born to produce offspring with different colors, and whether the probability is really higher than that of two normal parents."

"When Pokémon reproduce, their offspring will be downgraded in rank, especially the more powerful the Pokémon type. It's difficult to breed multiple generations of offspring outside of breeding facilities!"

"It's hard to find shiny Pokémon that mature late in life. I'm boosting your stats and experimenting on you. Don't let a hero be wasted!"

Xia Ye punched himself twice more, satisfied, and went back to lie down on his bed.

"I estimate that the trait of heterochromia is controlled by multiple pairs of genes. Even if both parents are heterochromatic, the probability of their offspring being heterochromatic will not be particularly high."
