I, Xiao Mao, want to become a Pokémon Master!

Page 279

Xiao Shi isn't in a hurry. Anyway, Paradox Pokémon is pretty good. Although it's a bit ferocious, it can still be subdued. It all depends on the trainer's skill.

As long as the Paradoxical Sprite doesn't wander in the wild, the impact shouldn't be too significant.

“Grandpa, I can send the Majestic Tooth over for you to study, but the Majestic Tooth has a very bad temper. I usually have to stay by its side when I let it out before it can calm down,” Xiao Mao said.

"You've forgotten that I was a very strong trainer when I was young. I still have a Dragonite, so you can rest assured," Professor Oak said.

“Alright, but I’ve also researched some information about the magnificent teeth recently. Do you need it, Grandpa?” Xiao Mao asked.

"Yes! Yes! Tell me quickly!" Professor Oak said hurriedly.

Dealing with Professor Oak is quite simple; all you need to do is bring out a new Pokémon.

"Based on my observations over the past few days, I've discovered that Majestic has both Ground and Fighting attributes, but I still haven't figured out its unique characteristic. It's confirmed to be a completely new characteristic, so Grandpa, you can focus your research on that," Xiao Mao told me.

"A completely new feature... that's definitely worth studying. Hurry up and send the Great Fang over, I'll definitely take good care of it for you," Professor Oak urged.

"Row."

Gary took a Poké Ball containing a Majestic Fang from his pocket and teleported it there, while also asking Professor Oak to teleport back the Pokémon he had caught in the Hoenn region.

My magnificent tooth will eventually meet my little Mao's elf; it needs to get used to modern life.

As for Majestic Fang's bad temper, it's nothing to Gary; all powerful Pokémon have bad tempers.

Gary has all his main Pokémon at Professor Oak's lab, so I believe Majesty will be well aware of his position within the team.

After the exchange is complete.

Xiao Mao was about to go back to his room to rest when he saw Xijiana standing guard at his door.

Hearing the noise in the corridor, Xijiana saw that it was Xiaomao and immediately walked over and said, "Xiaomao, I have something I want to tell you."

"Do we need to go inside to talk?" Xiao Mao asked.

“Um, I’d like to ask if you can come back to Meteor Village with me. I don’t know how to explain this to Grandma if I’m alone,” Higana said.

“You helped Rayquaza, and your grandmother won’t blame you. Besides, in my opinion, you Meteor Clan will have to face the outside world sooner or later. Seeking common ground while reserving differences and coexisting in harmony is the ultimate destiny of the Meteor Clan,” said Gary.

"What do you mean?"

Higana doesn't quite understand formal, literary language.

"It means that you and the outside world need to have the same goal, so that you can maintain peaceful and friendly relations and survive peacefully," Xiao Mao explained.

“What is the common goal?” Higana asked.

Xiao Mao was a bit of a headache. This Xijiana was too young and didn't understand the conflicts between interests.

“You’ll have to ask your grandma about that. I don’t know much about the situation in Meteor Village, and this isn’t something you can decide. Go back and have your grandma talk to Mr. Daigo. I’m sure they’ll come to a mutually satisfactory conclusion,” said Shigeru.

"Can you come back with me?" Higana asked.

Xiao Mao didn't understand why Xijiana was so afraid of her grandmother. She was fearless outside, but she became submissive when she was with her grandmother. Maybe it was the suppression of bloodline.

“Alright, I’ll go back with you, but I need to go get the Mega Stone from Mr. Daigo first,” said Gary.

"Yeah, no problem."

Higana immediately nodded in agreement. She didn't dare face her grandmother alone and needed someone to face her with her.

...!

After resting overnight in Kayana.

Early the next morning.

Gary and Higanbana boarded Steven's helicopter and headed to Kanaz City.

We headed west and arrived in Kanaz before noon.

Steven took Gary into the Mega Evolution Research Lab in the Devon Building and gave Gary the Mega Stone of Scizor.

Xiao Mao took the Mega Stone and looked at it. The Mega Stone of Scizor was surrounded by gray-blue, and the willow leaf symbol in the middle was composed of three colors: red, gray, and brownish-red. It could be confirmed that it was the Mega Stone of Scizor.

"Shigeru, why don't you try it out?" Daigo suggested.

“Testing…then there’s no need for that,” Xiao Mao said.

Shigeru was in a hurry. He was doing well in Mossdeep City, but now he was back in Kanazon City. He needed to go to Meteor Falls later, and then he had to go back to Mossdeep City. Even by public transport, it would take him a lot of time.

With only two months left until the start of the Saiyu Tournament, Shigeru needs to collect the remaining two badges before heading to Saiyu City.

The key is to see what kind of mission the system will issue this time, and Xiao Mao also needs to set aside some time to adjust his Pokémon team.

“No, I’m worried there might be something wrong with this Super Stone. We need to test it again,” Daigo said.

"Problem? What problem?" Xiao Mao asked, taken aback.

Daigo wouldn't give himself a problematic Super Stone, would he? That would be too unethical.

"When we tested this Mega Stone before, that trainer's Scizor successfully Mega Evolved, but Mega Evolution is very unstable and can revert at any time," Steven said.

416: Super Evolution Test

Why didn't you say this sooner?!

Shigeru was shocked. Although he had never seen a problematic Mega Stone, he thought that a Mega Stone was ultimately a burst of life energy to stimulate the cells in a Pokémon's body to complete Mega Evolution.

Since evolution requires life energy, the source of the energy in the Super Stone must be some kind of energy source. If a Super Stone from a thousand years ago were to survive to this day, would it still be usable? These are all unknowns.

"Don't worry, Shigeru. If there really is a problem with the Super Stone, I can replace it for you," Daigo said with a smile.

"Okay, where's the teleporter? I need to teleport my Scizor here," said Gary.

"Please follow me." Dr. Ward led Shigeru to the teleporter. To facilitate research on super evolution, a teleporter was provided in the research room.

After such a long period of research, Devon Corporation has come to understand that not all Pokémon can undergo Mega Evolution; a strong bond between the trainer and the Pokémon is required for Mega Evolution to occur.

If you randomly pick a Pokémon 11 to test it, the result will definitely be a failure; you can only find powerful trainers to do it.

Therefore, researching Mega Evolution is still very difficult. If the bond is not strong enough, even if you equip the right Mega Stone, you cannot complete Mega Evolution.

Even if a Pokémon successfully undergoes Mega Evolution, it may still go berserk, disobeying its trainer's commands and attacking indiscriminately.

Shigeru dialed the number for Ooki Labs, and Ken answered the phone.

As for Professor Oak, he naturally went to spend some time alone with Mammoth.

"Xiao Jian, teleport the Scizor over here for me," Xiao Mao said.

"Ok, no problem."

The praying mantis is not very demanding in terms of environment. As long as it is not in a hot environment, it can survive. You can keep it directly in the yard.

Xiao Jian quickly located the Scizor and teleported it over.

After obtaining Scizor, Ward and Steven took Gary to the research lab's battle arena, where there were many testing instruments used to study Mega Evolution.

"Mr. Shigeru, you can release your Scizor now." After Dr. Ward finished preparing, he gestured for Shigeru to release his Scizor.

"Old friend, come out." Gary opened the Poké Ball in his hand.

Baton!

A giant, crimson scythe covered in steel armor appeared.

【LV64 Scizor (male) / Near Legendary】

After some time, Scizor has reached level 64. If its potential hadn't increased a little late, it should be close to reaching the Champion level.

However, Xiao Mao wasn't in a hurry. He would give Scizor another six months. Once it reached level 67, Xiao Mao would use a Super Rare Candy to level it up to level 70.

"Not bad." When Daigo saw Shigeru's Scizor, his eyes lit up. As a Steel-type trainer, Daigo naturally knew about Scizor.

Among Steel-type Pokémon, Scizor is definitely one of the top contenders, and almost every Steel-type trainer will consider raising one.

However, Scizor has a drawback: because it is a Bug-type Pokémon, its lifespan is too short. Simply put, its peak period is short. Although its lifespan is longer than Bug-type Pokémon like Butterfree, it is still too short compared to Pokémon like Charizard.

If you raise a scythe to its peak, it can be used for about 10 years. After that, the scythe will start to age and its strength will gradually decline.

Xiao Shi doesn't need to worry about this. The higher the level of a Pokémon, the longer its lifespan will be. As long as you can get your Pokémon's strength to the level of a near-legendary, its lifespan will also increase.

"twitter!"

When the scyther saw Shigeru, it immediately swarmed around him.

Scizor was very happy to learn from Jian that Xiao Mao needed it.

"Long time no see, you've gotten a lot stronger." Xiao Mao patted the Scizor on the shoulder.

"twitter!"

The Scizor nodded, indicating that it would soon catch up with the Tortoise.

"Great, here, take this with you." Xiao Mao took out the Super Stone.

The Scizor clamps its grip on the Mega Stone and places it into its storage space.

Next, Xiao Mao explained some uses of the Mega Stone to Scizor. He said that once the Mega Stone is activated, it will unleash a tremendous amount of life energy. There is no need to resist; just let the life energy enter your body.

"twitter!"

The scyther nodded in understanding, and it was also curious about what else it could evolve into.

Especially since Blastoise and the others haven't Mega Evolved, but he has, it's like Gary gave himself special treatment.

"Scizor, let me see what you look like after Mega Evolution, Mega Evolution!" Gary activated the Key Stone.

Instantly, a circular rainbow light emanated from the Scizor's chest, revealing the shape of a Mega Stone.

"twitter!!"

Just as Xiao Mao said, the Mega Stone burst forth with enormous life energy, ignoring Scizor's steel armor and directly burrowing into Scizor's body. The cells inside the body were nourished by the life energy, instantly emitting a colorful rainbow light that enveloped Scizor's entire body.

As the rainbow light disappeared, Scizor reappeared in a completely new form before everyone's eyes.

"It's a success! No wonder he's the trainer that Mr. Daigo chose." Dr. Ward was very excited. He was worried that Gary's Mega Evolution would fail, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

After Mega Evolution, Scizor doesn't differ much from its predecessor. The biggest change is that its pincers become longer, with two rows of serrations on the inside, giving it the power to tear anything to shreds. However, compared to using its pincers to clamp down, Mega Scizor is better at swinging its pincers at its opponents.

"Dr. Ward, is the detected energy fluctuation stable?" Xiao Mao asked.

"Let me see."

Dr. Ward immediately stared at the screen on the instrument, which displayed a wavy line chart, the fluctuations of which were completely stable.
