Chapter 75: Good news, it's a water Pokémon! Bad news, it's not Squirtle!
Chapter 75 Good news, it's a water Pokémon! Bad news, it's not Squirtle! (Please read on)
"Xiaoxia? This name..."
As someone who has watched the Pokémon anime, it's hard not to grumble when I hear this name.
Seeing that the people who came in were an ordinary mother and daughter, Ye Yinchuan felt relieved.
The family of three gathered in front of the camera, which made people feel warm.
"Please be careful to protect the child's privacy and don't show his face."
Ye Yinchuan reminded her that the little girl was at most in the fifth or sixth grade, and this Pokémon egg was prepared for her.
"Anchor, what do you think? Is this Squirtle?"
The man was somewhat excited and expectant.
This egg was carefully selected by him in the egg market.
They are an ordinary working class family with car and mortgage loans.
After paying off the loan and adding living expenses, the little money I get every month leaves me with basically nothing.
But his daughter, Xiaoxia, likes water Pokémon, so as a father, he wants to do his best to give her the best.
So he did his homework and found this "Squirtle" egg in the egg market.
At this time, the hostess spoke:
"Dad, if you have less expectations, you will be less disappointed. Xiaoxia, don't you agree?"
"Dad and Mom, although I like Squirtle very much, I can also have other Pokémon. Especially the one that Dad picked for me personally, I will definitely raise it well... It's best if it's a water-type. As long as it's a water-type, I'll be satisfied!"
Hearing the conversation between the family of three, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
This family is really inexplicably harmonious.
What surprised him a little was that Xiaoxia, who looked like she was only in the fifth or sixth grade, had such clear articulation and thinking, which was considered smart.
He looked at the Pokémon egg, admiring it.
The treasure appraising eye has quietly started to work.
The size and shape of this egg are slightly rounder than regular eggs.
But this is not special.
At this time, the entire egg was shrouded in the light of the elf's energy, making the color and pattern unclear, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of identification.
The most important condition for hatching Pokémon eggs is to absorb enough Pokémon energy.
Either absorb it naturally, or walk with eggs in your arms, or use an egg-hatching machine to speed up absorption.
In short, once enough elf energy is absorbed, it will begin to hatch like this egg.
Through the light of the elf's energy, Ye Yinchuan could vaguely see that the egg was blue as a whole, with some yellow light scattered around.
Plus the light is also blue, giving it a rippling feeling.
Even without the need for a keen eye for treasure appraisal, one can be sure that this is most likely a water-type Pokémon egg.
If it's yellow, it will remind people of Squirtle's belly.
Indeed, if you just look at the appearance, it is easy to tell that this is a Squirtle egg.
But Ye Yinchuan has a keen eye for appraising treasures.
When he saw the pop-up panel, his expression darkened.
The breed of this egg is clear.
However, Ye Yinchuan's eyes soon softened again.
"One good news and one bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
[This is Squirtle's egg! I didn't eat it!]
[The host is a veteran actor, and his facial expressions change very subtly! ]
"Good news."
The family of three felt a little uneasy when they saw this.
"The good news is that this egg will hatch into a water-type Pokémon."
"Oh yeah!"
Xiaoxia started dancing with joy.
"I want water Pokémon! When I grow up I want to wear a swimsuit and play in the water with them and go to the beach!"
Seeing the girl's innocent look, Ye Yinchuan smiled knowingly.
What a beautiful wish.
"What about the bad news?"
"The bad news is that this water Pokémon is not Squirtle..."
The man smiled bitterly. Although the hostess was prepared, she still felt a little disappointed.
It’s like buying lottery tickets. Even if people know there’s a high chance of not winning, they’ll still feel a little unwilling when they actually see the thank you for your patronage.
What's more, the probability of this egg being a Squirtle is much greater than winning the lottery.
"This egg is from Psyduck."
Ye Yinchuan did not keep the person in suspense. Seeing the other party's inquiring look, he directly gave the answer.
"Ah... Psyduck."
Obviously, the disappointment on the other party's face was somewhat beyond Ye Yinchuan's expectations.
"Is Psyduck weak?"
Ye Yinchuan had doubts in his mind.
Speaking of Psyduck, the first thing Ye Yinchuan thought of was Misty's Psyduck in the anime.
Even though he is stupid, his "petrification skill" and "telekinesis" can make him defeat everyone in an instant.
Oh yes, the “petrification skill” in the anime is the “immobilization skill” in the game, it’s just a translation problem.
[Psyduck is so weak! That thing has a generally low IQ, and it’s hard to use it as a living Pokémon! ]
[The battle is even worse! I'd be so pissed if I had a Psyduck! ]
[It would be cool if I could evolve into Golduck. 】
After seeing the barrage, Ye Yinchuan roughly understood.
I guess the Psyduck in this world is the same as Misty's early Psyduck in the anime.
He doesn't obey orders and is very weak.
Even the method of immobilizing the body and telekinesis may not be able to be used.
"Psyduck is also a water-type Pokémon. It's so cute when it's silly!"
The little girl used her cell phone to find information about Pikachu Duck.
"But why does it say that unless a person is particularly smart, Psyduck is not suitable as a partner?"
The hostess was somewhat helpless: "Is it too late to return the goods now?"
"It's probably too late, because..."
The man pointed at the crack that appeared on the Pokémon egg. This Psyduck was about to hatch!
They didn't have enough money to buy other Pokémon for their daughter.
"Wow!"
The little girl held the Pikachu egg in her hands.
Accompanied by the shining of elven energy.
Her eyes were shining, full of anticipation for new life and friends.
It can be seen that the little girl's feelings for Pokémon are not mixed with too much utilitarianism.
"Crack!"
The eggshell broke, and a little yellow duck, covering its head, came out stupidly.
"Gah?"
Psyduck tilted its head and looked at the little girl in front of it with curious yet dull eyes.
"Hello Yaya, I'm Xiaoxia. We're partners from now on!"
The little girl smiled brightly, as if she was really greeting a new friend.
[I don’t think I’m really going to raise this Psyduck, it’s a complete waste of time! ]
[If I raise it as a mascot, it might be enough...]
[Don't worry, the host hasn't said anything yet! If it's really inappropriate, I'll probably advise you! ]
There was a heated discussion in the barrage about this situation.
"Mr. Broadcaster, Psyduck is too dumb. Is it really suitable to be my daughter's first Pokémon?"
The man couldn't help but ask.
Ye Yinchuan stared at the screen, confirming Xiaoxia's feelings for Psyduck and the panel of this Psyduck.
He said with a firm tone:
"Who said Psyduck is stupid? This Psyduck is awesome!"
