Chapter 518 Improving Qualifications

"Anyway, let's take a look at these features first."

Yang Ming thought for a moment and then clicked on these interfaces.

Pokémon Qualification Enhancement Potion, as the name suggests, is used to permanently enhance the Qualification of Pokémon. Pokémon in this world also have individual differences. Pokémon with high qualifications will be slightly higher in ability than those with low qualifications, and this gap will gradually widen as they grow.

But in the final analysis, this "slight" difference in strength has too little impact on the strength of Pokémon, far less than the impact of characteristics and skills in battle. For ordinary trainers, spending a lot of money and material resources to select a high-level Pokémon is far less cost-effective than spending the same amount of money to buy a skill machine, so most trainers in this world don't care too much about the difference in qualifications. Only those top families have the resources to get Pokémon with superb qualifications.

"The gap between Pokémon with medium qualifications and Pokémon with high qualifications is very small. The gap only widens between low qualifications and top qualifications. No wonder for most people, deliberately screening the qualifications of Pokémon is a thankless task." Yang Ming said in his heart.

However, the qualification potion developed by Team Rocket can fundamentally change this problem. No matter how low the qualification of a Pokémon is, as long as a dose of qualification potion is used, it can directly reach the top qualification. Of course, the price of qualification potion is also very expensive. It takes 15 points to exchange one potion.

"15 points..." Yang Ming took a breath of cold air. This was much more expensive than the Earthquake Skill Machine. However, considering that the manufacturing cost of this thing was very high and it could save the process of screening Pokémon qualifications, this price was not incomprehensible.

Yang Ming tested his Pokémon and selected the Pokémon he wanted to cultivate. The results are as follows:

Rattata (medium aptitude), Venusaur (high aptitude), Pixie (medium aptitude), Parastellar (low aptitude), Swamp King (medium aptitude), Scorpion (medium aptitude), Condor (high aptitude), Magneto (medium aptitude), Slowpoke (high aptitude), Magneto (high aptitude), Gyrocopter (high aptitude), Kairos (medium aptitude), Magikarp (excellent aptitude).

Yang Ming was not very surprised by this result. The qualifications of individual Pokémon in the wild vary greatly, and it is unrealistic to capture Pokémon with excellent qualifications in the wild. In comparison, he cares more about the quality of the characteristics.

However, it was a pleasant surprise that Slowpoke and Otochromis were so talented.

In comparison, artificially cultivated Pokémon generally have better qualifications. Venusaur is a Pokémon that Yang Ming "tricked" from a member of a large family, so of course its qualifications are superior. For the same reason, the two Pokémon that Fenglu gave him also have high qualifications.

Yang Ming guessed that the Dark Crow that Apollo had given him before should also be of high quality.

As for the Golden Magikarp, this thing is the Pokémon rewarded to him by Sakaki, so its qualifications are naturally top-notch.

"With the points I have, I can only improve the aptitude of three Pokémon at most. I should limit the improvement to the Pokémon with low and medium aptitudes. As for the Pokémon with high aptitudes, let's put them aside for now. Anyway, the difference in combat power between them and the Pokémon with top aptitudes is minimal..."

Yang Ming used the power of Evergreen to communicate with his Pokémon, and eventually Rada, Kairos, and Venomoustine, who had the strongest desire to become stronger, were the first to improve their qualifications.

Anyway, he can get 15 points every month without doing anything, so he can take his time with the rest of the Pokémon.

After using the potion, all three Pokémon reported that their physical fitness had been improved, either by increasing their speed or increasing their strength, with other abilities also slightly enhanced.

"As expected of a medicine that costs 150,000 per bottle, the effect is immediate." Yang Ming sighed as he looked through the remaining two functions.

Pokémon Form Conversion Potion, this potion can change the form of a Pokémon at the genetic level. For example, it can turn Rattata into the Alola region's Rattata, and turn Slowshell into the Galar region's Slowshell. However, if a Pokémon has hidden characteristics, they will become normal characteristics after changing their form.

This medicine is more expensive, costing 30 points per bottle.

This potion is of no use to Yang Ming. Alola Rada's attributes are normal plus fighting, and its speed and attack power have also decreased. Its combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of the current Rada, which is a negative improvement.

The fighting style of Galar Slowshell is the opposite of the current Slowshell, and is unnecessary for Yang Ming.

"What a pity! If a trainer who uses Mud and Gastly buys this potion, it can greatly improve their combat effectiveness."

The last one is the Pokémon Ability Conversion Potion, which can change the characteristics of Pokémon and is divided into two types, ordinary ability conversion potion and hidden ability conversion potion. The former is exchanged for 20 points per potion, while the latter can convert the characteristics of Pokémon into extremely rare hidden characteristics, and the price is as high as 80 points per potion.

"Eight hundred thousand..." The price was so expensive that Yang Ming had to seriously consider the necessity of exchanging it.

Currently, most of his Pokémon's traits are the best and most useful traits, so there is basically no need to exchange for this kind of potion, with only two Pokémon being the exception.

Swamp King and Picosi.

Swamp King's water storage property can make him immune to all water-attribute attacks, and he can restore his physical strength by absorbing the opponent's water energy. And Picosi's magic protection property can make him immune to all non-combat damage, both of which are excellent properties.

But their hidden properties are even more amazing.

Hidden Feature: Simple. When a Pokémon with this feature uses a move to attack a target, it ignores the target's defense, special defense, and dodge rate ability changes; when attacked by the target's move, it ignores the target's attack, special attack, and hit rate ability changes.

In other words, no matter if the opponent performs Dragon Dance six times or Meditation six times, these strengthening effects will be invalidated in front of the Pokémon with the simple characteristic. What makes the opponent even more crazy is that the Pokémon with the simple characteristic will not be affected by the strengthening of its own abilities.

In other words, when a Gyarados fights against Swampert with the Simple Characteristics, no matter how many times Gyarados performs Dragon Dance, its attack power will not increase at all; while Swampert that has been cursed six times can maximize its attack and defense.

"This trait is too powerful. I must grit my teeth and exchange it for it even if it costs 80 points." Yang Ming made up his mind. Although the hidden traits of his two Pokémon are both Simplicity, Pixie's Magic Guard trait is more valuable and there is no need to replace it.

Although the Swamp King's Water Storage property is also good, it can only be used when facing water-attribute attacks. And Paraste's Dry Skin property can also play a similar role.

"It's decided. Let's change the characteristics of Swamplord. At worst, we can spend more resources to train Parastellar and let it serve as a combat force against water-attribute Pokémon." Yang Ming made the decision quickly.
