Pokémon: I just became a Gym Leader, and Cynthia proposed to me.

Chapter 584 Rebirth from the Ashes

That's right, this is actually Blaziken's most fundamental talent.

The gluttony is just a superficial manifestation of Blaziken's talent.

Just now, Li Shuwen had a stroke of luck and used the power of aura to unravel the mystery of Blaziken, capturing its fundamental talent during Mega Evolution.

When paired with Ultra Crimson Mode, Blaziken becomes the ultimate power engine.

Of course, Blaziken didn't have such great talent at the beginning.

This talent was developed by Blaziken through countless training sessions, meals, and the labor of slaves.

Blazer's gaze shifted, "If Blaziken develops its Crimson Mode well, its efficiency in utilizing fire-attribute energy will be terrifyingly comparable to Moltres."

"To be honest, the Crimson Lotus Form was actually inspired by a Moltres after I fought it."

"The techniques developed by combining the fire-body characteristics of the Magmortar are superior to Moltres's true ability to be reborn from fire."

"There's still a considerable gap, but your Blaziken shows me the possibility of truly catching up with Moltres."

Li Shuwen raised an eyebrow; he remembered that Moltres also had a fiery body.

Blaine's use of his fiery nature makes it easier for him to connect with Moltres.

Cynthia asked curiously, "Babler, what is it like for Moltres to be reborn in flames?"

When Xia Bo recalls that scene, he is still very emotional and filled with感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing both sadness and reflection).

"At that time, both I and the Magma Dragon used all our strength, but we could only barely seriously injure Moltres, but Moltres circled into the lava."

"It came out at its peak, while the Duckbill Flame Dragon was already exhausted."

To be honest, Blaine was initially somewhat disappointed with Moltres's performance.

Moltres is not good at fighting, and its strength is only slightly greater than that of Magmortar.

It just has a slightly longer stamina than the Duckbill Flame Dragon.

But unexpectedly, after much effort, Moltres's stamina was almost completely depleted.

In the blink of an eye, Moltres was fully healed, and its strength had even increased because of the battle.

But there's nothing that can be done; this is the legendary Pokémon, this is rebirth from the ashes.

Not only legendary Pokémon, but ordinary Pokémon can also increase their strength through battles.

The amplitude wasn't that exaggerated.

After seeing the light and heat emitted by the Blaziken, Li Shuwen understood why it didn't replenish its energy through eating.

Because it was already lit by the little sun before it even entered my mouth.

Li Shuwen asked, "Uncle Xia, is it possible to prevent energy from leaking out during training? Would this significantly impact the training effect?"

Blair raised an eyebrow. "It's not easy to completely control the energy of the Crimson Lotus Mode explosion; the overflowing energy is indeed a waste."

"But this is also a way to protect the Pokémon's body and avoid causing damage. Too much precise control, once a mistake is made..."

Li Shuwen knew that the biggest problem was that it was difficult to control.

This kind of venting is to avoid the uncontrollable energy from hurting oneself.

Li Shuwen, however, was full of confidence: "If it were just Blaziken on its own, it would indeed be impossible to control, but with me in tow, we should be able to manage!"

Li Shuwen first reduced the intensity of the Crimson Lotus Mode, then released the Aura Power to communicate with Blaziken, which indeed caused the light and heat on Blaziken's body to begin to dim.

After its light subsided, Blaziken's aura actually reached a new level.

Moreover, the wounds that hadn't fully healed were being soaked in the lava and were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It sleeps even faster than photosynthesis.

It has a hint of being reborn from the ashes.

Blaine stroked his chin. "It seems the next stage of expansion is compression. Even the Midas Touch has thoughtfully decided on the future direction for me and the Duckbill Flame Dragon."

Blaine nodded repeatedly, "That's right, I'll definitely take you to find the Moltres next time!"

"Sparring with Moltres can help your Blaziken become more proficient."

After spending a day at the volcano, we returned to Kaji Town to say goodbye to Liu Bo and the others.

Krona and Natsume also plan to continue developing cryogenic experiments.

Even Uncle Liu joined in.

Rather than focusing on strengthening the pigs, Liu Bo was more interested in researching ways to help the long-haired pigs recover.

Li Shuwen has already sent the data on the long-haired pigs to Dr. Yamanashi and made a phone call.

However, Dr. Yamanashi has been quite busy lately, and the analysis results will take a week to arrive.

Even with Cynthia's connections and Li Shuwen's influence, expedited processing is impossible.

Dr. Yamanashi is really busy.

Dr. Yamanashi was unwilling to miss such a valuable case study as the long-haired pig.

We assured Uncle Liu that he could examine the long-haired pigs without worry, and the examination fees would be directly included in the research funding.

Furthermore, the inspection location was changed from the Pokémon Center in Kaji Town to a research institute in Goldenrod City.

The equipment there is the most professional; the machines at the Pokémon Center still produce data that is too basic.

The underlying issues of long-haired pigs are not apparent.

Sabrina's foresight regarding the future opportunity to witness the evolution of long-haired pigs will likely require Dr. Yamanashi to complete his report before a conclusion can be reached.

Then, when Liu Bo goes to the Sinnoh region, he can trigger that opportunity.

After watching how Blaine and Lydia trained their Pokémon, Cynthia also gained some insights.

Reluctantly, she parted ways with Li Shuwen at the airport in Zhuqing City to handle the champion's affairs.

Li Shuwen also returned to the Curtain Dojo to welcome the eager challengers.

In the Trainers Forum, a guide has been compiled out on when is the best time to challenge Li Shuwen, the Midas Touch.

Not only Li Shuwen's condition, but also the trainers themselves and their Pokémon have strict standards.

On the standard line, the probability of triggering Li Shuwen's Midas touch is at least 80%.

The remaining 20% ​​depends on the condition of Li Shuwen's Pokémon.

Li Shuwen returned to the Curtain Dojo and found it eerily quiet.

If a child is quiet, they're definitely up to no good.

Waveguide power, activate!

These four guys actually hid in an empty room, planning to give him a surprise.

Li Shuwen didn't expose them; instead, he chose to cooperate with them.

As soon as Li Shuwen stepped into the living room, the lights suddenly went out.

A cart with a lit candle was pushed out of the room.

"Welcome home, Master!"

There's a cake on the cart.

Li Shuwen raised an eyebrow. "This limited edition cake is not easy to buy."

Ah Jin proudly held his head high, "It was indeed hard to buy, but only by going through all the difficulties to buy this cake can we prove how grateful we are to our master!"

Crescent Moon directly exposed him, "Actually, the cake maker took a liking to Pikachu and used Pikachu's electric shock to ripen berries, making the cake even more delicious."

"Gold's Pikachu doesn't have outstanding control over using Electric to ripen berries, but perhaps because of its piercing sound, Pikachu's electric shocks have a unique flavor that other Electric-type Pokémon don't have."

Spiky Pichu evolves into Spiky Pikachu.

It looks no different from a regular Pikachu, but now it seems that this little guy actually has some special abilities.
