Chapter 300 The Sky Dragon's Orb, Glowing Dishes, Chef Ash!
Let alone Ash, who is considered unlucky, even the other Ashes were shocked. Drawing three S-rank abilities at the same time was something they had never seen or even heard of.
The fact that I was able to draw an S-level ability three times in thirteen draws makes me wonder if there's a bug in the lottery system in the chat group. Otherwise, how could it be so outrageous?
No matter how shocked or incredulous everyone was, it was an undeniable fact that Ash had drawn three S-rank rewards. The only question was what exactly those three S-rank rewards were.
[Champion Ash: What did you pull? Show it to everyone, let's broaden our horizons. We've never seen so many S-rank abilities appear at the same time.]
[Advanced Xiao Zhi: Stop joking, you big shots! Although you haven't drawn any S-rank abilities, the power each of you possesses far exceeds that of an S-rank!]
Everyone else in the group except him joined at their peak; to put it more vividly, they were all graduate accounts, except for him, who was a beginner account.
People have already graduated, why would they need to participate in a lottery? At most, they might need something like a lottery if they were to develop a side business, but otherwise, they don't need any lottery-related things at all.
So whether it's S-class or not, it might only affect their mood a little and test their luck. As for the works themselves—it's not that they don't exist, but it's better than nothing.
[Advanced Ash: One of the S-rank abilities I drew is called — Limit Break ②, right? This should be for Pikachu, right?]
Ash had drawn the power once before, which was to allow Pikachu to break through the current level limit and reach a higher level. Although Pikachu's level would drop temporarily after use, the upper limit of all its stats would be increased.
Although the level is lowered, the power is not actually reduced by much, and the leveling speed will also increase. Otherwise, Pikachu could not have reached the peak of the gym in such a short time.
However, Pikachu is currently stuck at the peak of the gym again. I don't know if it's the level that's holding Pikachu back, or if Pikachu has reached a critical point again.
[Ash the Breeder: Hey~ Limit Break 2, that's pretty good. This way you don't have to go to the next region to unlock Pikachu's power. What's your Pikachu's level now?]
[Advanced Ash: Gym Leader, I've been stuck at this level for a while now.]
[Ash the breeder: Theoretically, a first-stage reincarnation can reach the early Elite Four level. However, some Ashes in parallel universes have had Pikachu undergo another limit break at the peak of their gyms. This is because they weren't in the chat group and didn't know about Pikachu's special circumstances. But this also shows how difficult it is for Pikachu to reach the Elite Four level without a second-stage limit break.]
[Ash the Aura: Yes, it's extremely difficult for Pikachu to reach Elite Four status. Even if the first stage breakthrough raises Pikachu's potential ceiling, it's still just Pikachu. It's the second stage that truly makes Pikachu extraordinary.]
[Aura Warrior Ash: But then again, if you can raise Pikachu to Elite Four level in the first stage, then when Pikachu reaches Legendary level in the future, both its power ceiling and stats at the same level will be much stronger than when your Pikachu breaks through its limits at the peak of the Gym.]
[Ash the Aura: Without exception, all the powerful Pikachu in our group achieved their second-stage breakthrough after reaching the Elite Four. It's just that we all stumbled upon it by accident. After we finished traveling in the Hoenn region and moved on to the Sinnoh region, our Pikachu would achieve their limit break. Since we were unaware of this, we didn't intentionally stay in the Hoenn region.]
Before joining the chat group, Ash had no idea that his Pikachu would be so special.
Their Pikachu is indeed quite different from the ordinary Pikachu, but no one could have guessed that Pikachu's talents and stat caps could increase as the travel area expands.
Looking across the entire world, and even across all parallel universes, only their Pikachu possesses this ability.
Therefore, before joining the group, Ash would never deliberately linger in a certain area. He would basically leave that area and head to the next area after the tournament was over.
Pikachu's level won't be deliberately trained to the limit; whatever level it reaches is what it is.
Even though Pikachu has broken through a limit once to go from the Gym Leader level to the Elite Four level, the difficulty of the upgrade is still far greater than that of ordinary Pokémon. It can be said that the first and second evolutions are a qualitative change. If Pikachu were to undergo a second evolution after reaching the Elite Four level, it could easily reach the peak of the Elite Four.
However, if you do your second job advancement at the peak of your gym, then after traveling to the end of the Sinnoh region, you will at most be around the Elite Four level.
One step lower, and you'll fall further and further down. Ash, who can train Pikachu to the level of Elite Four member in the Hoenn region, is an outstanding figure in the entire parallel world.
And now there's someone even more outrageous—someone who raised Pikachu to the peak of the Gym without even going to the Orange Islands.
In terms of talent, Ash Ketchum, the newcomer, is perhaps the strongest in all parallel universes, without exception.
However, Ash's foundation is just too weak. If his foundation were better, with his talent and luck, he might already have half a team of Elite Four members.
Of course, Ash is definitely not weak now. Even if his basic skills are a bit weak, Ash's conditions are still exceptional. It's only a matter of time before he becomes the strongest in the group.
[Advanced Ash: I understand. So, this ability needs to be used when Pikachu evolves into an Elite Four member, right?]
[Champion Ash: Yeah, that's best, otherwise it might somewhat affect his talent after the breakthrough.]
[Advanced Ash: Okay! Besides this ability, there's another one—[Sky Dragon's Orb - Guidance] What is this? I don't understand it.]
Ash knows a little about the Sky Dragon, but what is the Sky Dragon's Orb?
[Ash, the friend of legendary Pokémon: The Sky Dragon's Orb—if I'm not mistaken, it should be the green orb, which is one of the legendary Pokémon mediums I mentioned earlier.]
A legendary Pokémon medium is similar to Ash's Rainbow Wing or Venusaur's Life Seed; it is a unique item that leaves the legendary Pokémon.
Currently, aside from situations where divine beasts give them their own items, there is no known method to remove their innate items from them.
That's why champion Ash said not to mythologize human technology. No matter how advanced human technology is, as long as it doesn't reach the point where humans can fight against legendary Pokémon on their own, then human technology is still inferior to Pokémon in terms of high-end combat power.
"The premise for humans to control mythical beasts through technology is that the mythical beasts themselves have weaknesses."
Things like Palkia's Platinum Jewel and Dialga's Diamond Jewel, which belong to the origin of divine beasts, have somehow ended up in the wild.
If these things fall into the hands of evil organizations, what else can we say? They've already given them away!
The new reward Ash has just drawn is a green orb from Rayquaza, one of the legendary Pokémon mediums and one of the strongest legendary Pokémon!
[Advanced Ash: Green Orb? What exactly does it do? Like my Rainbow Wing and Venusaur's Life Seed, can it increase a Pokémon's training speed?]
If it truly possesses the effects of divine items like the Rainbow Feather, then it could indeed barely qualify as an S-rank item, but only barely. Compared to the S-rank rewards he had previously obtained, it still seems somewhat lacking.
[Ash, the friend of legendary Pokémon: No, that's just the most basic effect of the Green Orb. Its strongest effect is summoning Rayquaza!]
[Advanced player Xiao Zhi: !!!]
What the hell? That thing can summon Rayquaza?! That's insane!
[Ash, the friend of legendary Pokémon: There are two ways to use the Green Orb. One is to use it anywhere, and Rayquaza will appear and fight for you unconditionally once. As for which Rayquaza will appear and whether it has a divine status, these are unknown, but it is certain that the summoned Rayquaza will be at least a high-ranking one from the legendary realm.]
In other words, as long as you hold the green orb, it's like having a powerful talisman. This thing is like having a high-level spirit from the divine realm on your person!
In that case, it truly deserves the S-rank reward. It can assist in the training of spirits and summon a first-level god from the divine realm to help in battle. What more could you ask for?
However—Ash said there are two ways to use it. One is to summon Rayquaza to help. What about the other way?
[Ash, the friend of legendary Pokémon: Besides summoning Rayquaza for help, you can also take the Green Orb to Sky Pillar to participate in a Rayquaza catching battle.]
[Ash, the friend of legendary Pokémon: However, it's important to note that the summoned Rayquaza can at least unleash power at the legendary level. Although it won't use Mega Evolution to test you, even among legendary Pokémon, Rayquaza is among the top tier. At the same level, Rayquaza can unleash even greater power.]
Rayquaza — Mega Evolution — What a niche term! If Rayquaza were to undergo Mega Evolution, wouldn't it become comparable to the creator god?
Perhaps only a Mega Rayquaza fighting Arceus will tell us. However, if Arceus is truly immune to all types of attacks, as the experts in the group say, then no matter how much Rayquaza's power increases, it won't make much difference.
That's getting off topic. He hasn't even trained a single Champion-level Pokémon yet (Gengar and Aerodactyl don't count), let alone thinking about reaching the Divine Realm level. Only by taking it one step at a time can he truly reach the end.
As for summoning and capturing Rayquaza, that's out of the question for the time being. Even if Rayquaza were to team up with Mega Evolved Mewtwo, it wouldn't be a match for Rayquaza.
The difference between a small level in the God Realm is probably more terrifying than the difference between a King and a Champion. What is the concept of a high-level God Realm? It's estimated that a single Destruction Beam could instantly kill them ten times over.
So don't even think about taming Rayquaza. Besides, he's only received guidance from the Sky Dragon Orb and hasn't actually obtained the Green Orb yet. Thinking about those things is just too far off.
[Awful Xiao Zhi: You're truly the chosen one! Breakthrough and legendary Pokémon, everything good seems to fall into your lap. What was your final S-rank reward?]
As someone who's always unlucky with draws, I've gotten used to it all. Now, no matter what you pull, I won't give up!
Sometimes, when the gap becomes too big, even the desire to compare disappears. Luck is the same. Xiao Zhi, who is unlucky, no longer wants to compete with Xiao Zhi in terms of luck. They can't play together at all!
[Advanced Xiaozhi: This last one—it looks a bit strange, what's it called? [Light of Hope]? What is it?]
As soon as Xiao Zhi sent the message, the entire group fell into a brief silence. Then, one by one, Xiao Zhis came out to speak, and their messages were all just three words: "I don't know."
Judging from the name, this reward, like the guidance of the chosen one, is a very abstract one. To find out the specifics of this reward, one would have to go out and receive information about the S-level reward.
The biggest difference between S-rank rewards and other ranks is that these rewards come with an instruction manual. So once Ash returns to the real world, he will automatically receive the instructions for the S-rank reward and then he will know what it does.
In addition to these three S-rank rewards, Ash also drew five B-rank, three A-rank, and two C-rank rewards.
The levels encompass a wide variety of things; some levels directly raise a spirit's aptitude to level B, while others raise it to level A.
There is also some knowledge belonging to breeders.
Of the three A-rank rewards, one A-rank reward allows the Pokémon's Speed aptitude to be directly upgraded to A-rank, while the other is a familiar reward—the Sky Age.
The final A-level reward is a very strange thing, called—a glowing dish.
[Advanced Player Xiao Zhi: Guys, what is this glowing food? Does it make the food glow? And this is considered A-grade?]
[Chef Xiao Zhi: Hey kid, looking down on cooking? No, wait, you're me—you can't look down on yourself! How can a glowing dish not be considered A-grade? Do you know how hard it is to make a dish glow?!]
A new Ash has appeared!
This is another Ash I've never seen before, and his name is Chef. Could it be that in some timeline he gave up his dream of becoming a Pokémon Master and became a chef instead?
