Chapter 241 The Key to Primeape's Evolution? The Ghost-type Move Rage Punch? Will Failed Evolut

Chapter 241 The Key to Infernape's Evolution? The Ghost-type Move "Rage Punch"? Will Failure to Evolve Lead to Death?

[You have approved the connection request from user "Bad Temper"!]

[Connection successful!]

With the notification, Ye Yinchuan saw a bespectacled, refined-looking man in front of him. It was hard to imagine that this guy's online name was "Bad Temper".

But it's hard to say... because Ye Yinchuan might inexplicably think of the image of a domestic abuser in certain TV dramas.

"Hello there."

"Hello host, please take a look at my Infernal. I'm starting to wonder if it's really like what they say, that my Infernal is possessed by some dirty thing, otherwise why would its temper be getting worse and worse?"

Although Infernape has always had a bad temper, we've spent so much time together, and I've put in so much effort, and it finally managed to tone it down a bit. Now it's back to square one all of a sudden, and honestly, I can't accept it!

Ye Yinchuan nodded.

The reason why the viewers and the online commentators suspected that this Primeape might be possessed by something dirty was because this Primeape exhibited Ghost-type energy.

But Ye Yinchuan, who possessed advanced knowledge of Pokémon, naturally wouldn't let them lead him astray:

"I'll be blunt, your Primeape isn't possessed by anything, but it might be about to evolve."

When Ye Yinchuan said those words, the person on the other end of the line was completely stunned.

The reaction from the comments section also reached a new climax.

[Is Primeape really going to evolve?]

[Host, are you going to give us another big surprise?]

[If Primeape could evolve... just how bad would its temper be? I've heard that after Mankey evolves into Primeape, its temper becomes even more uncontrollable!]

【Seriously, do people actually keep these kinds of Pokémon? I heard about a Primeape that died from anger…】

Bai Zhi was also searching on her phone, but she couldn't find any information about the evolution of Primal Monkey.

Without a doubt, the evolved form of Primeape is still unknown in this world.

Ye Yinchuan's understanding is naturally far ahead of its time.

"I know you're in a hurry, but please don't rush, listen to me..."

After calming down the viewers and the live chat, Ye Yinchuan slowly began to speak:

"Actually, this kind of situation is very rare. I also saw the relevant record in an ancient book. I originally thought it was just a fabricated legend, but now that I have heard that there is such a fiery monkey, it seems to have been verified."

[Another ancient book?]

[I used to have a friend who now uses ancient books as a basis for his arguments, right? Dare to expose him?]

[Upstairs, you're wrong to take this seriously. The streamer is just making up an excuse; it might be the result of research by a global organization.]

[No... do you really think we can just release such important information like that?]

[I disagree. The streamer has already told us this important information, so why can't we just reveal it all?]

[The streamer probably only revealed a few things selectively, there must have been some hidden information... If they told you everything, what would the streamer even broadcast?]

Ye Yinchuan never expected that his casual mention of ancient books would elicit such a strong reaction.

However, it's clear that some comments are trying to justify their statements, so there's no need for me to say anything more; the more I say, the more mistakes I'll make!

"Alright, enough talk. Show me your Primeape first, and then I'll explain."

Ye Yinchuan originally wanted to say more, but he hadn't even seen the Pokémon yet, and it would be too dry to just talk about it on paper.

"well……"

The person in charge didn't dare to delay and quickly released the Infernape from the Poké Ball.

The reason it's kept in a Poké Ball is to prevent Primarina from suddenly getting angry and attacking people or smashing things.

At this moment, Ye Yinchuan also noticed that the parking lot at the house he was connected to looked like it had been destroyed by a tornado, and was in a complete mess.

Without needing to ask further, it must be the work of the Infernape.

Regardless, the fact that the Linkman was able to raise the monkey monster to Infernape and even go through a period of "emotional stability" shows that he must have some breeding ability and experience.

As we all know, Mankey needs to be around level 28 to evolve into Infernape.

Not to mention, the conditions are even more demanding if Typhlosion is to evolve further.

Judging from the appearance and voice of the person connected, they are quite young, so I guess they are a professional trainer.

Therefore, Ye Yinchuan doesn't need to talk much; he can just focus on the situation of this fiery monkey.

Upon seeing the fiery monkey, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but nod, admiring its posture.

Hmm... there's really nothing to admire about them. Infernape and Mankey look almost identical, except that Infernape is larger and has black, shackle-like structures on its limbs, making it look more ferocious and violent...

By the way, Primeape's tail disappeared after evolution, which is a rather large but easily overlooked detail.

His fists are also more powerful, and he looks like he's wearing boxing gloves, giving him a more fighting style.

Ye Yinchuan directly checked the panel to obtain more detailed and accurate information.

【Pokémon: Primeape】

[Level: 31]

[Attribute: Fighting]

[Gender: Male]

[Racial stats: B-rank (455)]

Individual Value: Grade B (135)

【Characteristic: Drive】

[Personality: Short-tempered]

[Evolution Path: Mankey - Infernape - Forsaken]

[Skills: Grab, Stare, Throw, Charge, Random Grab, Kick Down, Earth Throw, Bluff, Cross Strike, Fist of Fury]

[Status: Evolutionary Trend]

[Trait: None]

As his gaze swept across the room, Ye Yinchuan knew what was going on.

This Infernape has shown signs of evolution, but it still needs to work hard or meet certain conditions before it can truly evolve!

"Furious Punch, in the game, is a move that you can usually only learn at level 35. This Primalmon has already learned it at level 31? It seems to have a lot of evolution potential. However, judging from the Primalmon and the Connector's condition, it seems that they don't have a high level of mastery of this move, or even haven't discovered it yet."

After thinking it over to himself, Ye Yinchuan asked the person on the other end of the line:

"Then let me ask you, how did you discover that your Primeape was exhibiting Ghost-type energy?"

"Hey streamer, whenever this Primeape gets angry, there's always some Pokémon energy flowing around its fists. It used to be all Fighting-type, but lately it's started showing Ghost-types!"

Hearing this, Ye Yinchuan nodded:

"I understand. Your Infernape must have mastered a very special move, which matches the description in that ancient book I saw."

At this moment, Ye Yinchuan had also taken the opportunity to research the extent of his understanding of a certain Ghost-type move in this world...

Sure enough, they had no idea about this move.

This is understandable, since this move is linked to the subsequent evolution of Primeape. If they don't know the subsequent evolution of Primeape, how would they know about this move?

However, Ye Yinchuan's actions at this moment really surprised Bai Zhi.

She was shocked to see Ye Yinchuan's fingers flying across the keyboard without making a sound, and it seemed he was looking up information about Pokémon.

Bai Zhi's heart raced, and many thoughts suddenly came to mind:

"So this is how he does his livestreams? He researches things while streaming and then explains them to the viewers? There's a reason he's so amazing!"

Thus, Ye Yinchuan's image as diligent and studious was firmly established in Bai Zhi's mind.

Another memorable feature is these fingers... they're so flexible!

How to put it? It's a bit like "beauty is in the eye of the beholder." When you have feelings for someone, you see more of their good points.

For example, someone else might think, "Oh, so this big streamer isn't that great after all; there are things they don't understand, and they need to look up information."

But Angelica dahurica is different...

She was just looking up information, but couldn't find anything. She felt that Ye Yinchuan could find things, so Ye Yinchuan was better than her!

[Hurry up, host!]

What kind of Ghost-type move could Primeape learn?

"Yes, this move is called 'Fist of Wrath'."

Ye Yinchuan didn't mean to keep people in suspense; it's just that he needed time and rhythm to speak.

The audience's enthusiasm and thirst for knowledge were so strong that some couldn't wait.

[The Fist of Wrath? That sounds impressive, but I've never heard of it before!]

What kind of move is this?!

Ye Yinchuan continued:

"According to ancient records, Primeape inherently possesses Ghost-type potential and can learn more than just this one Ghost-type move. However, 'Rage Punch' is particularly important for Primeape because it's the key to its next evolution!"

Seeing that Ye Yinchuan was getting to the point, Lianxianren and Baizhi both perked up their ears to listen.

The comments section was even more enthusiastic—

Is the Ghost-type move, Rage Punch, the key to Typhlosion's evolution?

[Wow, this is huge news!]

Those who raised Baby Dragons last time went crazy, and this time those who raised Mankey and Primalnade are probably going to be in for a blast too. Get ready for the Snorlax frenzy!

[Attention! This man is called Snorlax, and he will single-handedly... oh, no, I mean, he'll overturn the entire Pokémon world with a few ancient books he accidentally acquired!]

After glancing at the comments, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but chuckle.

But he didn't respond; he simply explained step by step:

"The 'Fist of Wrath' technique is essentially about concentrating the power of anger into the fist to unleash incredible force—a power that penetrates deep into the bones and even shakes the soul!"

A flawless version after careful inspection!

[That's awesome?]

Wait... so what does this have to do with Ghost-type?

"Good question! I'm sure many students are curious about the connection between moves like 'Rage Punch' and Ghost-type moves..."

As someone mentioned earlier, some hot-tempered monkeys can literally drive themselves crazy with anger...

I don't know if you can understand what I'm saying... those Infernal Monkeys that are so angry that they even die of anger, if they could concentrate their anger on their fists instead of venting it randomly...

Therefore, in the instant they die of anger, they will have the chance to gain the power to break free from the constraints of their physical bodies! They will evolve into a completely new form, wielding the power of rage, transforming into vengeful ghosts, yet still possessing formidable physical strength!

This is too unbelievable, streamer!

No, Pokémon are extraordinary beings. Ghost-type Pokémon have already been proven to exist, not to mention Psychic-type Pokémon. Don't underestimate the power of spirit and willpower!

So... does Primeape have to be driven crazy to evolve?

[If you become a ghost but still have a physical body, isn't that just a zombie?]

Ye Yinchuan, upon seeing the comments, realized he was already very close to the answer:

"The key to Infernape's evolution is to master the 'Rage Punch,' and then, during the process of using the 'Rage Punch,' get so angry at yourself that you die. This gives you a chance to evolve into a completely new form..."

In the game, the condition for Primeape to evolve is to use Rage Punch 20 times in a row, and then level up...

In reality, they are slightly different, but in essence, they are similar.

Without information, evolving Primeape would be extremely difficult, both in the game and in real life!

[Holy crap, if evolution fails, doesn't that mean they really die?]

[This evolution difficulty is a bit scary! It's really tough on Primeape!]

For Ye Yinchuan, explaining and popularizing this knowledge was originally a rather serious and mission-driven matter.

But the playful comments really made him want to laugh.

However, it's not a big deal, because the overall tone of Ye Yinchuan's live stream was still quite relaxed.

"this……"

For others, it's nothing to worry about; they just treat it as a new and interesting piece of trivia for fun.

But the Connector was the most direct stakeholder, and knowing that if the evolution failed, his Primeape might die on the spot, he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Host, is it that serious? Does failing to evolve mean instant death?"

Ye Yinchuan could completely understand the questions and concerns of the person on the other end of the line. After all, every Pokémon was like his own child, someone he had raised with care and effort, and had even watched grow up.

Even though Primeape's personality isn't exactly pleasant among Pokémon.

But how could someone who has already regarded them as a precious companion treat them differently?

Every Pokémon is a unique treasure in the eyes of the right person.

"Hmm... Actually, there's a bit of a misunderstanding here. It's not that failing to evolve means death, but rather that Pokémon like Primeape can get so angry that they die, and there's always a risk of them dying."

However, if one can master the "Fist of Wrath," it's like adding an extra layer of insurance against this risk of death.

"Ugh, I'm so angry! But it's okay, I've mastered the Fist of Wrath, gained the power to break free from the constraints of my physical body, I've evolved! You wouldn't believe it, would you?"

Ye Yinchuan then changed the subject and gave a vivid Pokémon cosplay.

His last sentence, spoken from the perspective of the Fire Monkey, gave off a kind of boring and mischievous comicality.

Bai Zhi, standing nearby, couldn't help but suppress a laugh.

The person on the other end of the line understood Ye Yinchuan's meaning and suddenly realized:

"Therefore, mastering the 'Fist of Wrath' and evolution... is not a bad thing, but a tremendous good thing!"

Ye Yinchuan nodded, "This young man is teachable."

"Evolution is certainly not a bad thing; otherwise, why would we evolve?"

[Wait... why does this sound like an advanced calculus lecture? I spaced out and didn't quite catch what I was saying. Didn't the host just say that failing to evolve means death? How did it turn out to be a good thing?!]

[What do you think, upstairs? Don't forget that when the streamer took the exam, all the examiners had to listen and take notes. You dare to daydream while watching the live stream? Go back and watch the recording and think about it!]

That's different. I might feel sleepy in advanced calculus class, but I get more and more energized watching the live stream!

[After all that talk, what exactly does Primeape look like after it evolves, and what are its characteristics, streamer?]

Upon seeing the last comment, Ye Yinchuan's eyes flickered, and he said:

"The evolved form of Infernape is called Abandoned Monkey. 'Abandoned' means 'giving up on treatment,' and 'world' means 'destruction'!"

[Um... was the host's choice of this word combination intentional or accidental? Judging from the explanation of the name, it doesn't sound like a kind person!]

[The Infernape is already formidable enough, it's hard to imagine just how terrifying this Forsaken Monkey really is!]

"As for its appearance and characteristics, it's hard for you to really understand just by talking about it... How about this, this person called 'Bad Temper' would like to let your Hotshot Monkey receive my online guidance and evolve into a Recluse Monkey in one fell swoop?"

Upon hearing Ye Yinchuan's words, the person on the other end of the line showed excitement and joy.

If he could get guidance from this streamer and help his Primeape evolve, he'd be set for life.

First of all, there is no doubt that Primeape will become stronger when it evolves into Forsaken.

Secondly, if nothing unexpected happens, his Infernape will likely be the first publicly revealed Pokémon to evolve into Abandoned!

Furthermore, with guidance from a live streamer, things should go much more smoothly, and any problems encountered may be easily resolved!

What are you still hesitating about? What are you wavering about?

Actually, I also have a Primeape. If you don't want one, I can take your place!

The viewers in the live chat were also very excited. If they had the chance to witness the evolution of the Infernape tonight, it would be a very exciting thing for them!

Although the person on the other end of the line was excited and eager to try, he still didn't immediately agree:

"Host, this is a very important matter. My Inferno Monkey should also have a say in the decision. Could you wait a moment while I ask for its opinion?"

"Yes, of course."

Ye Yinchuan believes that trainers who don't act on their own initiative are quite good.

One of the most important principles of Pokémon is always respect.

At this moment, the fiery monkey was already furious, punching the air and making some fierce noises, making it impossible for strangers to approach.

The liaison risked getting punched and whispered a few words in Inferno's ear.

The fiery monkey actually raised its fist, making an excited and happy gesture.

The person on the other end of the line also looked delighted and quickly said to the host:

"No problem, streamer. Primeape wants to become stronger, it wants to evolve!"

Ye Yinchuan also heard the Infernape's inner thoughts. It turned out that one of the reasons for the Infernape's anger was that it felt a power stirring within its body, driving it and making it involuntarily angry...

Now, hearing that it has the opportunity to evolve and become stronger, joy temporarily outweighs its anger.

"Alright, so the first step we need to take is to help you, Infernape, quickly master the 'Fist of Rage'!"

Ye Yinchuan's eyes were focused, and he was in high spirits.
