Pokémon: The Genetic Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off

Chapter 122 Dream Gene Cultivation actually yielded this?!

After hanging up the phone, Natsuno clicked on the Pokémon audio video.

Official accounts across the country are sharing the video of the operation, and its popularity is alarmingly high.

Judging from the context, the official operation took place in the afternoon, a swift and decisive strike that left not a single Rattata on the island alive.

When the officials arrived, the group was still having a naked mass party on the island.

Therefore, most of the entire arrest video was pixelated, making the content blurry.

Xia Ye felt that the video contained more mosaics than the strange educational movies on Earth.

However, the most eye-catching scene is undoubtedly the Sinnoh Champion leading a Garchomp and wreaking havoc.

The blonde beauty had a cold expression, and Shark's movements were completely different from anything Xia Ye had ever seen, incredibly sharp.

As I watched, Natsuno's thoughts drifted off to who-knows-where.

This is Zhu Lan, with flawless beauty under the lens and strength that strikes fear into the hearts of enemies.

Xia Ye simply took a few screenshots of the coolest frames, since her new phone didn't have a screen saver yet, and that's all.

I also opened Pokémon Chat and sent the message to that pinned account with a text message.

"This is so cool!"

"No need for further words. When we return to Sinnoh, I will definitely accompany the Champion to visit all the ruins!"

The video ends with a meme of "Xiao Cai standing at attention and saluting".

Three seconds later, the other party replied with a "shark-smiling" emoji.

Ono, you promised you wouldn't lie to me.

Seeing that Zhu Lan replied so quickly, Xia Ye chatted with her for a few more minutes.

Knowing that Zhu Lan must still have some finishing work to do, I temporarily stopped chatting.

I picked up my phone again and continued playing games with Xiao Cai.

Along the way, Natsuno noticed that the little round boy on her knee was staring longingly at the screen and asked him a question.

"Madoka, do you want to play Pokémon Honor too?"

Xiaoyuan's face moved up and down, a gesture she had recently learned to mimic Natsuno's facial expressions.

He exhaled a string of bubbles, his eyes filled with longing.

Seeing this, Natsuno began to scratch his head: "But you don't have fingers, even if you evolve into an artificial cell egg, you still won't have fingers."

Then his eyes lit up: "That's right, you have superpowers, the controller might work!"

If superpowers don't materialize, they're unlikely to function like fingers for swiping the screen.

This useless piece of knowledge was learned from Cattleya.

One day, Natsuno suddenly had the idea to watch videos while lying down without moving at all. After trying it without success, he went to the young lady.

As a result, Gadriya directly said that she couldn't do it, and then Natsuno saw through her and realized that she had already made a similar attempt.

After the chaos, Natsuno confirmed that day that superpowers did not directly help with playing games.

Seeing the longing look in Xiaoyuan's eyes, Natsuno immediately ordered a controller online.

This thing is pretty useless for most Pokémon; those with fingers can't use it, and those without fingers might not be able to use it either.

Happy times fly by, and Natsuno Aya, who suffered an 8-game losing streak, ended her broadcast in disgrace and barely managed to fall asleep.

The next day, Natsuno arrived at the underground base research lab, yawning.

As soon as the door opened, Fuji pulled her along to look at the incubation chamber.

The Dream Eyelash gene that was introduced yesterday has now been successfully transferred, and the cultivation process is about to begin.

The screen was currently displaying a selection page, and Natsuno was carefully reading the contents.

Please select a reproductive cell with a specific attribute as the breeding base. If the genes and the basal cell are incompatible, the breeding process will fail.

Fuji frowned as he looked at Natsuno: "It takes more than 20 hours to copy this dreamlike gene fragment. We have to choose carefully."

Natsuno also came to his senses at this moment and began to ponder.

Dream, without a doubt, is a superpower type.

But from a genetic perspective, there might be more possibilities for this guy to completely transform into other Pokémon.

Perhaps all types of cells can successfully reproduce?

Since gene breeding requires replicating the original genetic data anyway, I might as well give it a try.

Having made up her mind, Natsuno pretended to be troubled.

"But we don't know what attributes a dream should have, so we can only try them one by one."

"Anyway, genes need to be cloned and then cultivated. If we try them all, we'll eventually get results."

Although exhaustive search may seem clumsy, it is very effective.

Although Fuji shook his head, he had no doubt about Natsuno's judgment and decision.

Looking at the 18 attributes in the list on the screen, Natsuno gritted his teeth and clicked on the first one, Normal.

After the confirmation button was pressed, the machine started making operating sounds.

Xia Ye's heart was in his throat, his eyes fixed on the glass window of the incubation chamber.

After a long while, Natsuno noticed a slight swaying in the nutrient solution and realized that the cells had been placed inside.

The surrounding energy transporters activated, and energy began to stimulate the unseen embryonic cells.

After another ten minutes or so, Natsuno felt his eyes were getting dry and finally couldn't help but blink.

The next moment, a small, pale purple dot appeared in the nutrient solution, smaller than a sesame seed.

Natsuno stretched out her finger and gently wiped the glass surface, finding that the purple dots were still inside. She breathed a sigh of relief.

With a sigh of relief, Xia Ye felt his mouth and throat were parched.

Although no one has ever seen the breeding methods of legendary or mythical Pokémon, you can understand it by analogy.

Since Dream possesses all the genes, then the gene for being born from an egg must also be included.

Natsuno turned around to go get a drink of water: "There's nothing much to see anymore. The next step is probably to get the egg. I'm going to get some water."

Fuji quickly reached out and grabbed Natsuno, his voice urgent: "No, Natsuno, come quick!"

Although Natsuno wanted to leave, he couldn't break free and could only turn around to look.

"He's a bastard!"

His voice rose several octaves, his eyes widened, and he was filled with disbelief.

At this moment, the pale purple tissue began to expand, but its texture looked very wrong.

Even the direction and angle of expansion don't resemble the formation of an egg.

The growth direction of that tissue inside wasn't oval like an egg; instead, it was somewhat square.

However, the lines are not straight, and the structure looks somewhat crooked.

Natsuno's mind went blank at that moment, his eyes fixed on the scene before him.

I completely forgot about things like taking pictures or speaking.

The two remained silent, their eyes wide open, as if afraid of missing a single second of the event.

As time went on, the level of the nutrient solution inside the culture chamber began to drop.

Inside, yes, what Xia Ye saw at that moment was a large blob of purple stuff.

He wondered if he was seeing things, rubbed his eyes, and checked again.

Meanwhile, Fuji took off his glasses, carefully wiped them clean with the corner of his clothes, and put them back on to watch.

After another ten minutes or so, the internal components were fully formed, and the machine continued to operate.

Two minutes later, Natsuno took an incubation device from the side of the machine, which contained the final result.

A pale purple, jelly-like object less than 30 centimeters tall.

The next second, before Natsuno's eyes, who was already speechless with shock, the jelly-like object changed.

Two small black dots and a black line appeared at the top.

The black lines expanded, revealing a red mouth inside.

It is light purple, jelly-like, and has small black eyes.

This walking grass is actually...

A Ditto?!
