"Host, what's wrong?"
Ah Gui noticed that Ye Yinchuan's reaction was strange.
"It's nothing serious, just that a round tadpole egg got mixed in."
Upon hearing this, Ah Gui was also surprised:
"This... is a round tadpole that can evolve into a blue toad, right?"
I searched for "blue toad," and it's so ugly!
[I heard it's great for PvP?]
Ye Yinchuan nodded:
"After the round tadpole evolves into the blue toad, it is very good at using sound waves to attack its opponents. In addition, its tongue is long and sticky, which can entangle and capture enemies."
However, in terms of appearance, the round tadpole is not as cute as the mosquito coil tadpole, and its evolved form even exudes a sleazy aura. Especially its final evolution into the Toad King, which is truly ferocious.
Uh... I shouldn't have impulsively searched for "Toad King"!
[Is it possible that only players who prefer competitive play would choose the round tadpole shape?]
"Pompo has an advantage over Poliwag, which is that although Poliwag can also learn Ground-type moves."
However, the evolved form of Poliwag simply gains the Ground type, allowing it to adapt to enemies of more types. Furthermore, its mastery of Ground-type moves is definitely superior to Poliwag's.
Ah Gui nodded:
"One thing to know is that most of the time, even when we use Water-type Pokémon, we're not fighting in water. So Water-type Pokémon with the Ground type are better suited for movement and combat on land, which is an advantage."
"Besides, the Pokémon Pokémon Cyclops can communicate with its companions using sound waves, making it very difficult to find their eggs in the wild. One wrong move and you'll get ganged up on! I just never expected that a Cyclops egg would sneak in among these Poliwag eggs!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Yinchuan nodded.
Ah Gui truly lives up to his reputation as a professional trainer specializing in Water-type Pokémon; he knows so much.
Therefore, to some extent, especially as a battle Pokémon, Tadpole is actually more popular than Poliwag.
However, it's hard to say whether they will evolve to their highest form; it mainly depends on their innate talent and their upbringing.
"So, host, can I take this egg?"
Ah Gui was seeking Ye Yinchuan's opinion.
Although his initial goal was to get a decent mosquito coil tadpole.
But if you happen to encounter round tadpoles now, it's not that you can't take them.
The main thing is that I already have a good mosquito coil tadpole egg, so getting another round tadpole would be a good alternative, which would make the whole set complete.
"Yes, it's possible. This tadpole's individual values should be at least B-rank. If I'm not mistaken, its ability is Water Absorb."
Hearing this, Ah Gui was delighted:
"Water storage? That's a powerful ability! Not only can it store water in the body, giving you more freedom of movement on land, but it can also reduce the damage from water-type moves to some extent, and touching water-type energy can even restore some injuries and energy!"
Ye Yinchuan nodded in agreement.
The Poliwrath I saw that day also had the "Water Storage" ability, which is a very useful ability for Water-type Pokémon.
There are many benefits.
Simply by reducing the damage it takes from Water-type moves, it gains a huge advantage in battles against opponents of the same type!
Look, those are round tadpoles!
Why is there only one? Did it get lost?
The comments section reacted.
In the video, a round tadpole appears by the water's edge.
The round tadpole shape is not as cute as the mosquito coil tadpole.
It has the basic shape of a tadpole, with a large head and body connected by a tail, but no limbs.
The most distinctive feature of the round tadpole is the blue, tubercular-shaped growths on both sides of its body, along with a gray ring where they connect to the body, making it look like it's wearing a pair of headphones.
In addition, the round tadpole's eyebrows look like musical notes, or two commas, round in the middle and upturned at both ends.
The tadpole's mouth is quite unique; it's an upward-sloping smile, but the corners of its mouth also droop downwards, making it difficult to tell whether it's smiling or unhappy, giving it a very subtle emotional expression.
In addition, the round tadpole's tail is also blue, and like the mosquito coil tadpole, it is feather-like with a tadpole-like black stripe on it, right in the middle.
It was clear that the round tadpole was staring at Ah Gui, and the vibrating membranes on his yellow cheeks, those two earphone-like tumors, were vibrating rapidly.
So much so that ripples appeared on the water's surface.
"The round tadpole is calling for its companion. I guess this round tadpole is protecting its companion's egg! Ah Gui, it's time to retreat! If we attract the blue toad, or even the toad king, then we'll be in big trouble."
And the mosquito coil tadpoles might also be attracted! Mosquito coil tadpoles, mosquito coil swimmers, and even mosquito coil frog kings!
Ye Yinchuan reminded him.
Ah Gui nodded as well; he knew he couldn't hesitate any longer.
"Watch out! It's a dissolving solution!"
Just as Ah Gui picked up the round tadpole egg, intending to make a quick getaway...
The round tadpole launched an attack on Ah Gui.
It spews out a yellowish-green acidic liquid, which is the move "Dissolving Liquid". This is a strong acid that, when it hits an enemy, will damage the enemy's energy and skin, lowering their defense and making them more vulnerable to injury.
It's slightly different from the situation in the game, where there's only a chance to lower special defense.
Of course, for humans, being poisoned by the dissolving solution would be disastrous.
It's probably similar to being splashed with sulfuric acid.
[What a vicious tadpole!]
This is much more ferocious than mosquito coils and tadpoles!
The viewers in the live chat were also shocked by what they saw.
After all, although the round tadpole doesn't look as cute as the mosquito coil tadpole, its size and appearance are similar to the mosquito coil tadpole. But I didn't expect it to be so terrifying as soon as it made a move.
"water gun"!
But Agui is a professional trainer after all, and the two Pokémon beside him won't just stand by and watch.
In the wild, protecting their trainers is an instinctive reaction.
Wartortle and Kingler simultaneously unleashed their "Water Gun" attack, with two powerful jets of water spraying in opposite directions almost at the same time.
A water gun blasted away the clump of dissolving liquid that was spraying towards Ah Gui.
The liquid was instantly scattered, hissing as it hit water and producing green smoke, demonstrating its strong acidity.
The tadpole, after being hit by the water gun, was thrown into the water as if it had been hit by a car. When it floated back up, it was belly up, its fate unknown.
【pretty!】
This is what happens when you attack humans!
That doesn't make sense... They were just protecting their fellow countrymen...
Ye Yinchuan ignored the controversy in the comments section.
In the wild, there are only two kinds of relationships between humans and Pokémon.
Either they live in peace and harmony, or they attack each other.
Many people have a misconception that because they have seen so many tamed Pokémon, all Pokémon are human companions.
Actually it is not.
If one tries to treat all Pokémon with a gentle heart, one will inevitably pay a heavy price.
You should know that in the very early days of the Pokémon world, before humans had domesticated Pokémon, they were once called monsters!
"It's a success!"
Ah Gui successfully removed the slime and seaweed attached to the round tadpole egg and took it out intact.
He was holding two eggs in his arms, looking quite suspicious.
To both the mosquito coil tadpole and the round tadpole clans, he was a despicable human, a despicable egg thief!
It's not hard to understand this hostility.
Imagine if a child trafficker came to the village with a child; if they caught him and didn't kill him, that would be considered very good.
Of course, some Pokémon know how terrifying humans are, or they don't care so much about their offspring, so even if they see them, they won't attack them.
As long as it's not too excessive.
Sometimes, humans follow the rules and take only one or two eggs at most. For some Pokémon with strong reproductive capabilities, it's nothing, just an unspoken rule of trade.
Having successfully obtained two eggs, Ah Gui was ready to make his escape.
But to my surprise, when I turned my head, I saw a blue toad standing on my way back, its eyes full of aggression.
Wow! It feels like we're waiting for a luxury item!
[It scared me! It looked like a ghost!]
I always felt the blue toad was a bit sleazy, kind of like an old man...
The comments scrolled by quickly.
Ye Yinchuan was also sizing up the blue toad.
The blue toad has a thick, round body, somewhat smaller at the top and larger at the bottom, resembling a gourd.
It has no hands and appears blue at first glance, but its actual colors are quite complex, with at least five colors on its body, and the layers are clearly defined.
The main body is dark blue, from head to toe.
The area from the face to the belly is beige.
From the eyes down, there is a black ring of stripes that separates the two parts.
With three large bumps on its head, it no longer resembles the "earphones" of its pre-evolutionary form.
The main part of the tumor is ice blue, and there is a black ring around the part where it connects to the body.
Some people may be misled into thinking that the two small, round bumps on the sides of the blue toad's body are hands, but they are actually tumors.
There is one on the back as well, but it cannot be seen from the front.
The blue toad's mouth is basically the same as before its evolution, but it seems to be longer and more separated, and its grin is even more "sleazy".
Its tail became very small, just a white strip, right behind its rump.
This blue toad is level 35, making it a formidable opponent for Ah Gui.
Judging from Blue Toad's confident demeanor, he clearly didn't take Agui and his two Pokémon seriously.
Ye Yinchuan heard the blue toad's inner thoughts:
"Ah Gui, this blue toad wants you to put down the tadpole eggs... What do you plan to do?"
"Of course we can't put it down! We're already this far!"
Ah Gui's eyes were firm.
You can call him greedy, but in the wild, it's normal to clash with Pokémon.
Territory, food, resources, even the other's eggs.
As humans, we also have to fight against wild Pokémon and compete for our interests!
Both sides have their own positions, and even... humanity is the evil side.
But so what?
Even in the world of Pokémon, there is no absolute black and white.
Just like in the Pokémon anime, Team Rocket are the bad guys, but not many people hate them; some even like them.
"Then be careful, and finish this quickly!"
A Pokémon battle is about to begin.
Ye Yinchuan was also considering whether he should take action and use the [Heavenly Hand] to help Ah Gui.
But after thinking about it, Ah Gui, as a professional trainer, must know what he's doing.
This is his own research topic, so it's best not to interfere unnecessarily!
"Guwa!"
When the blue toad opens its mouth, visible sound waves emanate from it.
Meanwhile, the fleshy growths on its body were vibrating rapidly, amplifying the intensity of the sound waves. The energy mixed with the sound surged towards Ah Gui.
What's terrifying is that the sound is continuous; as soon as the sound waves are sent out, the sound waves follow closely behind and merge with the previous sound waves, making the sound wave attack even more powerful.
"This is... an echo combined with ultrasound!"
Ye Yinchuan recognized the Blue Toad's moves and was also alarmed.
As expected of a level 35 wild Pokémon, this move is a deadly attack that's hard to deal with!
If a human were hit directly, they would be severely injured. The key is that these waves of attacks give you no chance to escape or struggle!
"King Crab, use Wide Guard!"
"Wartortle, use that move!"
Ah Gui's expression changed. He had anticipated the attack and, while dodging it, had also given his Pokémon tactical instructions.
The giant crab moved rapidly left and right, releasing its energy to quickly create an energy barrier like a glass wall, protecting Wartortle and the shrew behind it.
However, the opponent's sonic attack was quite formidable, and the giant crab's energy barrier was rapidly fluctuating and deforming, and it was in danger of breaking at any moment!
But at that moment, Wartortle's "that move" comes into play.
Wartortle dashed forward, leaping into the air and curling its limbs and head into its shell. The next second, it began to spin rapidly, spraying water like a high-pressure water jet or a spiral cutter, hurtling head-on towards Blue Toad.
Moreover, it's clear that these water streams aren't ordinary jets, but rather carry a wave-like and vibrating aura!
"That's the trick!"
Ye Yinchuan's face lit up with surprise and excitement.
"It's 'retracting into the shell' plus 'high-speed rotation' plus 'water gun'... wait, it should also include 'water wave'! My god! This combo is so cool!"
At this moment, Ye Yinchuan was like a commentator for a Pokémon battle, his lips flying across the screen at an extremely fast pace, trying his best to explain the situation of the battle to the viewers in the live broadcast room amidst the ever-changing circumstances!
So handsome!
Wartortle, so cool!
Although Ash's Squirtle has also used the move of "retracting into its shell," "high-speed spin," and "water gun" in the anime.
But without a doubt, Ah Gui's move, which incorporates "Water Waves," is even more outstanding.
This combo may look flashy, but it is actually very powerful, even to the point of being a bit overpowered.
First, "retracting into its shell" means that Wartortle can protect itself very well, which to some extent reduces the opponent's chances of retaliating.
Secondly, the combination of "high-speed rotation" and "water gun" means that if you don't get close, it's a rapid and continuous long-range attack. Waves of water are harder to defend against than a single, direct hit.
Of course, that kind of effect is generally not very good.
What's truly formidable is close-quarters combat, which combines physical attacks with water attacks. Under such a double assault, no one could withstand it!
Adding "Water Pulse" makes it even more insane, as it also has the shock effect of "Water Pulse," which can make enemies dizzy and knocked around, causing them to be stunned or even confused!
as predicted.
Blue Toad was hit hard by Wartortle's attack, and his voice stopped abruptly, while the vibrations in his body were also disrupted.
This surprise attack was utterly ruthless.
"Dissolving solution!"
The blue toad regained its senses and spat out a mouthful of liquid. Its "dissolving liquid" was nothing compared to that of the round tadpole.
Its intense acidity filled the air with a pungent odor, and it was further enhanced by a terrifying poison-type energy, which it sprayed directly onto Wartortle.
If it hits, even the turtle's shell might not be able to withstand it.
If it gets inside a tortoise shell, it will cause a horrific and potentially fatal injury.
"Wartortle, protect it!"
Ah Gui exclaimed the instant the blue toad made its move.
"Hold on!"
The moment Wartortle landed, before its body was even fully curled up, energy surged, forming a barrier that blocked the Blue Toad's dissolving liquid.
By this time, the giant crab's attack had already arrived!
"This is... a 'metal claw' plus a 'hammer'!"
Ye Yinchuan clearly saw the giant crab swinging its huge claws and rushing towards the blue toad. Its body was somewhat unbalanced due to the weight of the claws it was carrying.
But it's clear that this giant crab has undergone special training and is able to find a special balance point when it's in a near-unbalanced state. It can even use the weight of its giant claws to shift its center of gravity forward and increase its sprinting speed!
At that moment, Ye Yinchuan also felt Ah Gui's professionalism as a trainer.
A master, an absolute master!
This is a classic example of turning a Pokémon's weakness into an advantage!
This training approach and its results are absolutely a positive and classic example, even among professional trainers!
"Metal Claw" is a Steel-type move. The surface of Kingler's giant claws is covered with a metallic luster and energy, greatly increasing its strength.
"Arm Hammer" is a Fighting-type move, which is supposed to be a powerful punch that inflicts a heavy blow on the enemy. The downside is that it slows down the user's speed. However, Kingler's forward shift of its center of gravity compensates for this. Meanwhile, Toad is too busy dealing with Wartortle to react.
This blow will hurt a lot!
At this critical moment, the blue toad suddenly started jumping and leaping, opening its mouth again to make a loud and noisy sound. The powerful sound waves covered the surroundings, causing considerable impact on both the Wartstle and the Kingler Crab.
This is "noisy" and "loud"!
But the attacks of the Kingler Crab are beyond what can be blocked by these few moves!
Bang!
Imbued with powerful energy and enhanced in various ways, the giant pincers, already possessing immense strength, swung head-on towards the blue toad.
Ye Yinchuan estimated that this hammer blow would be extremely bloody!
The blue toad also sensed the terror within and immediately abandoned its attack, jumping backward in an attempt to avoid it.
A loud bang followed.
The ground shook violently, and a large crater appeared. Because the soil was wet, there were no cracks, but the surrounding land was deeply sunken due to the immense force.
"No smoke! That means there's an injury!"
Ye Yinchuan was thrilled.
The blue toad dodged in time, but the giant crab was also somewhat disturbed.
But that attack still grazed the blue toad's body!
The blue toad's body was dented and bruised, covered in blood, and the internal tissue was visible. It was severely injured!
"Blue Toad, go! I don't want to kill you! I just want to take this egg with me; I'll take good care of it!"
At this point, Ah Gui attempted to negotiate.
After all, it's not easy for a blue toad to grow to this size.
Although there is a fierce competition between humans and wild Pokémon.
However, being able to incapacitate it or repel it, rather than kill it, is also a good deed.
Killing wild Pokémon is definitely not Agui's goal.
"Guwa..."
The blue toad bled profusely, staring at Ah Gui with eyes that held both hatred and hostility, as well as fear and suspicion.
It has sensed the power of this human!
The turtles nearby, including the giant crab, were waiting for Blue Toad's reaction without any of Ah Gui's commands.
Ah Gui silently counted in his mind that although he was merciful, he couldn't delay for too long.
Because it's very likely that other wild Pokémon will be attracted there.
Even the blue toad's companions.
"Gurgle..."
The blue toad's eyes dimmed, as if it had given in.
"Ah Gui, it's agreed. You should go too!"
Ye Yinchuan read the blue toad's thoughts.
Blue Toad was no match for the other, and although he was somewhat unwilling, he still conceded defeat.
Ah Gui nodded, remaining highly vigilant towards the Blue Toad. Under the protection of the two Pokémon, he quickly circled around it from the side and then retreated.
He ran away without looking back!
[Damn, that was so exciting!]
[Is this something that can be shown in a live stream? Isn't it too violent?]
The blue toad is so pitiful...
Just then, Ah Gui suddenly frowned, sensing something.
As he turned around, the camera panned to reveal the blue toad enveloped in light!
"It's about to evolve!"
Ah Gui felt a wave of fear wash over him.
Perhaps it was because it had accumulated enough power, or perhaps it was because of the battle that had just taken its toll. Unexpectedly, the Blue Toad evolved at this moment!
If he didn't intend to let the blue toad go, would the blue toad evolve into the Toad King in its final resistance?
The thought of the terrifying Toad King intensified Ah Gui's fear, even turning him pale.
"Let's go, let's go quickly!"
Ye Yinchuan also urged.
In fact, he had already seen it with his discerning eye.
After being attacked by the giant crab, the blue toad is about to evolve.
That's why he urged Ah Gui to leave!
Once the Blue Toad evolves into the Toad King, its combat power will skyrocket, and Ah Gui will face enormous danger!
Because even if the Toad King can't kill him.
As long as we can stall Agui until the other wild Pokémon, or even King Toad's companions, arrive...
So the waiting time is expensive... which is understandable!
There's a saying that goes, "To be merciful to your enemy is to be cruel to yourself."
But there's also a saying: "Forgive others when you can!"
The same principle applies to Pokémon as well!
Here comes the 6,000-word update! The story of the Tadpole Family has ended!
