Age of Elves: I started flashing with my handheld.

However, before advancing the plot, Nanfeng wanted to try out the effect of the sweet fragrance.

If Nanfeng remembers correctly, the original Emerald version didn't have the concept of group battles based on sweet scents; in fact, that concept didn't even exist back then. However, the Emerald version he's playing now obviously can't be judged by the standards of the regular Emerald version.

Therefore, the south wind needs to be tested.

Upon entering the game, the main character is still standing at Meteor Falls. Open the sprite interface, select Thumbelina, and use "Sweet Scent".

[TuTu Dog uses a sweet scent, attracting many elves!]

The battle interface immediately appeared on the handheld console.

Sure enough, five Pokémon appeared on the other side!

"It works!" Nanfeng breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it works, that's good.

Looking at the Pokémon on the other side, there were four Zubats and one Bellatrix.

"Baby Dragon!" Nanfeng's eyes lit up.

A baby dragon appeared during the group battle!

Isn't this the kind of place you can only reach by climbing the waterfall and entering the cave at Meteor Falls?

Could it be that the sweet aroma lured it out of the cave?

Nanfeng speculated.

Of course, another possibility is that you can encounter Baby Dragon in this version without climbing the waterfall to the cave above, but the probability of encountering Baby Dragon is very low.

Nanfeng felt he needed to test it out!

Use the frog to defeat the four Zubats one by one.

Under the relentless attacks of four Zubats and a Bagon, Froakie would have been unable to fight if the Zubats hadn't used the non-damaging Black Gaze skill.

The lack of AOE skills is indeed a bit troublesome.

However, that's how you catch Pokémon.

Only after defeating all four Zubats can you throw a Poké Ball to capture the Bagon.

Baby Dragon (Dragon)

【Level: 25】

【Ability: Hard Head (Immune to the recoil damage from its own moves.)】

Individual Values: HP (11), Attack (21), Special Attack (25), Defense (30), Special Defense (24), Speed ​​(31)

[Skills: Spark, Leer, Bite, Dragon Breath, Headbutt, Demon Mask, Crunch]

[Carrying Item: Dragon's Tooth]

Single V Speed ​​Baby Dragon.

Send it to the computer.

Nanfeng stopped running around Meteor Falls with her sweet scent and started encountering monsters.

In just over two hours, Nanfeng encountered at least two hundred Pokémon. However, he only encountered three types: Solrock, Luna Rock, and Zubat.

"It seems that only group battles can trigger this!" Nanfeng concluded, and then began to use the sweet fragrance to provoke monsters.

The first sweet aroma.

Five Sun Rocks appeared.

The first sweet aroma.

Four moonstones and one red-faced dragon appeared.

Ah this....

Disgraced by the Dragon Clan, Nanfeng had no interest and chose to flee.

Continue using the sweet aroma.

After using the Sweet Scent ten times in a row, another rare Dragon-type Pokémon appeared: Deino!

There's even a single-headed dragon? This was something Nanfeng never expected.

This tiny meteor waterfall is truly a hidden gem!

The south wind caught it, but it didn't even have a V, so let's just leave it to Dr. Birch to raise.

The test lasted for another two hours, which was around the time Nanfeng had dinner.

To accumulate 100 uses of the sweet scent...

I encountered two baby dragons, one single-headed dragon, and seven red-faced dragons.

During the process of encountering monsters with the sweet aroma, the situation of four with one will occur about once in ten times. The probability of the one appearing is 20%, 10%, and 70% for Baby Dragon, Single-Headed Dragon, and Red-Faced Dragon, respectively.

Of course, this probability is definitely inaccurate.

Nanfeng thinks the probability of encountering a Baby Dragon and a One-Headed Dragon should be the same; it's just that he was lucky enough to get two. Red-Faced Dragons still make up the majority.

"There's no need to flash here," Nanfeng concluded.

One reason is that the probability of encountering Baby Dragon and Deino is too low, and another reason is that my Pokémon does not have an AOE skill that can be used to level up here.

Nanfeng just checked the Pokémon's skills, and Garchomp has an AOE skill called Stomp, which is a Ground-type AOE skill.

The problem is that Zubat is a Flying-type, while Solrock and Luna Stone both have the Levitate ability. All three common Pokémon found in Meteor Falls are immune to Ground-type moves.

Who can I talk to to reason with you?

Game developers, do you have no heart?!

If you encounter a spirit, you can only run away; otherwise, it's better to fight them one by one.

In the past few hours, except when it was necessary to catch a Bagon or a Denodon, Froakie did not gain any experience points. Every time it fought a Bagon or Denodon, if it was lucky, it would eat a lot of medicine after the battle; if it was unlucky, it would be taken away and replaced by a Strongic Chicken to take the beating.

Pure waste of time.

Once you have a suitable AOE skill, you can come here to level up and catch baby dragons and one-headed dragons while you're at it.

The requirements for the south wind are not high, just a high V is fine, no flashes, after all, with this probability, it's a bit crazy to still be catching flashes.

Nanfeng remembers that one of the secret techniques, "Surfing," is an AOE skill.

Let's wait until we get Surf before coming here to level up and catch Pokémon.

As for now, Nanfeng can only level up using sweet fragrances in other places.

And believe it or not, even if you start with Garchomp and equip Froakie with a Exp. Share, it's still 2.5 times more efficient than leveling up by fighting monsters one by one with Froakie as the lead!

81. Instance "Volcano Project"

After exiting Meteor Falls, we returned the way we came to the foot of Chimney Mountain. The Fire Rock team at the cable car entrance had already left.

The south wind entered and headed towards Chimney Mountain in a cable car.

When they arrived at the top of Chimney Mountain, Team Magma and Team Aqua were already there and engaged in a fierce battle!

As soon as the south wind approached, a text message suddenly popped up on the handheld console.

[Enter the "Volcano Project" instance (Special reward for first-time completion)]

Recommended entry level for this dungeon: 45

"A dungeon?" Nanfeng was surprised to see something new.

Where are the original game instances?

Even in multiplayer battles, there's only Max Raid Battle.

There's a dungeon now?

The recommended level for the dungeon is 45.

Nanfeng glanced at his team.

Among the Pokémon, the highest level is Garchomp and Froakie, which are only level 34. The average level of the six Pokémon is less than 30.

It recommends level 45?

Nanfeng thought for a moment, then decided to save the game first and then make a final push.

Click "OK" to proceed.

The scenery before Nanfeng's eyes changed instantly. In the blink of an eye, he was already standing on the crater, with a pale blue light and shadow screen faintly appearing in front of him.

[Dungeon Objective: Defeat Crimson Pine, leader of the Fire Rock Team, and prevent the Volcano Project from being implemented]

[Instance Duration: 60 minutes]

The strong smell of sulfur assaulted the nostrils, black smoke filled the air, and a wave of heat rolled in. In just a dozen seconds, Nanfeng was already drenched in sweat.

Team Magma and Team Aqua are fighting all around him.

Each person commands their Pokémon to attack their opponent, and these attacks are often cunning and ruthless, not for friendly sparring, but to kill their opponent! They will even prioritize eliminating the trainer if given the chance!

"Defeat Crimson Flame Pine within an hour?" Nanfeng frowned when he saw the mission prompt. Putting aside the question of how strong Crimson Flame Pine was, the real problem was where was he?

"There's another member of Team Aqua over there!" a member of Team Magma suddenly shouted, pointing at Southwind.

"But he wasn't wearing the Aquadron uniform!"

"Take him down! Take down anyone who isn't wearing our Magma Team uniform!"

"Big Wolfhound, use a sneak attack on vital points!"

A large wolfhound is running across the crater, with a blurry icon on its head.

LV32.

A faint black energy emanated from its body, quickly coiling around it like a black cloak. When it was about three meters away, it leaped into the air, opening its gaping maw to bite at Nanfeng's head.

"Broken Rock"

Nanfeng raised his hand, and suddenly the figure of the strong chicken appeared in front of him. Its sharp claws, flashing with white light, delivered a blow to the head of the big wolfhound.

"Thump!" The big wolfhound's head was slammed into the ground by the strong chicken's claw, and even the ground showed faint cracks.

Without giving any chance, retract the right claw and finish with a "Rock Smash" with the left claw.

Boom!

The large wolfhound trembled slightly and instantly lost its fighting ability. It was fortunate that its head was sturdy; after all, the Mighty Chicken's Rock Smash could shatter and grind rocks to dust!

[Defeat the level 32 Great Wolfhound and gain 2086 experience points with the Strong Chicken]

"You can also gain experience by defeating opponents here, and it seems like you get more experience than when you fight NPCs," Nanfeng said, looking at the prompt that popped up in front of him.

"We've run into a tough opponent, hurry up!" someone shouted.

Amidst the chaos of the battlefield, two large wolfhounds darted out from a corner and raced towards Nanfeng.

Nanfeng had no choice but to throw out another Poké Ball, and Froakie made its appearance.

The two elves, one on the left and one on the right, each faced a large wolfhound!

And behind the south wind.

A large-mouthed bat silently emerged from a corner and darted past from the side like a ghost, leaping into the air and swooping down on the back of Nanfeng's neck, its sharp fangs already gleaming with a pale purple light.

"Venomous fangs"

Nanfeng was unaware of the sudden attack from behind, but a Poké Ball on his waist suddenly opened automatically.

Kirlia leaped out of its Poké Ball! Its psychic powers exploded! It floated into the air, blocking Zubat's path, and unleashed a close-range Psychic Beam!

The distorted, strange beam of light was sent almost directly into the Zubat's mouth, piercing right through it!

The double damage from psychic abilities gives it a perfect experience!

[Defeated Zubat LV32, Kirlia gained 1726 experience points, Kirlia's level increased, current level: 30]

When Nanfeng came to his senses, besides the cold sweat soaking his clothes, there was a tall and beautiful figure behind him.

It's Gardevoir!

Kirlia evolved into Gardevoir!

Gardevoir (Psychic, Fairy) (Shiny)
