Live treasure appraisal: You are such an elf!

Chapter 443 Hatching! Mythical Pokémon! This is Diancie, the Fairy Princess of the Ruby Kingdom!
"No... it's one thing for trainers to wear sunglasses, but why is this Charizard wearing sunglasses too? And it looks so arrogant, and what's coming out of its nostrils is... smoke?"

Ye Yinchuan looked at the fire-breathing dragon behind Brother Jie, who seemed to be chewing on something, and two puffs of smoke came out of its nostrils, emitting a strong smell of cigarettes.

He couldn't resist activating his "Treasure Appraisal Eye" to read the Charizard's stats...

After all, this was an official envoy sent to protect him. Now that they had finally met, Ye Yinchuan wanted to know just how capable this person was to shoulder such an important task...

It wasn't that Ye Yinchuan was boasting, but as the Phoenix King's envoy, he did indeed carry weight with the Chinese government, and the attitude from above was indeed so. They couldn't possibly send someone who wasn't capable, could they?

If Ye Yinchuan could confirm this, he would feel more secure in the future. Although it's better to be self-sufficient in security, if one's strength is insufficient, one can only rely on external forces.

"Not buddy..."

When Ye Yinchuan saw the Charizard's stats, he was still shocked, even though he was mentally prepared. It was truly a case of hidden masters. The strength of Brother Jie and his Charizard was beyond imagination!

[Fire Pokémon: Charizard]

[Level: 83]

[Attributes: fire, flying]

[Gender: Male]

[Racial stats: A-rank (534)]

Individual Value: Grade B (131)

[Characteristic: Fierce Fire]

[Personality: Calm and composed]

[Skills: Air Blade, Claw, Shout, Spark, Smoke Screen, Hot Wind... Dragon Claw, Dragon Breath, Flame Fang... Flame Vortex, Fiery Abyss, Blazing Charge...]

Status: Satisfied

[Evolutionary Path: Charmander — Charmeleon — Charizard]

[Trait: None]

Actually, judging from the stats alone, apart from its level and the high-level moves it has mastered, this Charizard's ability and individual values ​​are not particularly outstanding or super rare.

But strangely enough, this Charizard was trained to level 83 and even mastered high-level Fire-type moves like "Fire Abyss" and "Flare Charge"...

And Brother Jie looks to be only in his 30s at most. Even with the backflow of Pokémon energy, he would be in his 40s or 50s at most. Let's say he started training Pokémon at the age of 12 and spent 30 or 40 years training a Charizard that could rival the strength of a regional Elite Four member... Is that reasonable?
Ye Yinchuan didn't know, because he had no experience in this area, but he was certain that this path was destined to be bumpy, or rather, Brother Jie had also encountered many opportunities...

Therefore, the Chinese government sent a trainer named A-Jie, whose skill level in a single Pokémon is comparable to that of a regional Elite Four member...

In the absence of danger, the other party may simply be responsible for monitoring their surroundings, which could be seen as a waste of their talents, or it could be seen as a sign of the importance that the Chinese government attaches to this matter.

"You fire-breathing dragon..."

Ye Yinchuan was quite interested in the Charizard's growth story. He wanted to know how a Pokémon with ordinary IVs and abilities could grow into such a powerful being.

"You must have put in a lot of time and effort to nurture him all this way, right?"

"Oh, you mean Ash? It's a Pokémon left to me by my father. When I took it over, it was already over level 50... Thanks to Ash, I directly inherited my father's Pokémon Center number and became a staff member, naturally a professional trainer..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yinchuan understood; it turned out that the treasure had been passed down to the second generation.

"Inherited the Pokémon Center's serial number..."

So, Ah Jie's father must have passed away. Otherwise, his number would be unique and would only be sealed away even if he retired. Only if the father sacrificed his life and his direct descendants also engaged in the same work could they inherit his number.

Ye Yinchuan didn't ask any further questions, after all, it was never polite to pry into someone else's wounds just out of curiosity.

He also responded to what A-Jie had just said.

"You mean those short videos? I haven't even looked at the data and comments yet. Those overseas people should be able to notice, right? Our Chinese Pokémon heritage is second to none..."

After a brief chat, the two returned to their business.

A-Jie acted as the liaison, and the staff at the Pokémon Center led the two to a private room. They needed to go through several authentication steps, indicating a very high level of protection.

Immediately afterwards, one after another, mysterious boxes, each containing unknown contents and adorned with a design combining elements of the Chinese imperial dragon and Poké Balls, were delivered to the room via a staff cart.

"Are you really capable of hatching a Diancie? Is there a risk of failure?"

Although A-Jie was a special envoy of the Chinese government with a very high position and authority, Ye Yinchuan was still a very mysterious and powerful figure in his eyes, even though the other party's Pokémon level was far inferior to his own...

There must be great mystery and power within Ho-Oh's messengers, as can be seen from the Dark Ho-Oh Messenger incident.

The key point is that Ye Yinchuan's understanding of Pokémon and his knowledge of some Pokémon secrets seem to be ahead of the curve, even surpassing the level of information available to the Chinese government!
Its importance and significance to China need no further explanation.

Therefore, although A-Jie was acting as a protector, he actually felt a sense of awe towards Ye Yinchuan.

"It definitely will work. This is the method that Super Hookeye taught me, and it's the only way to save the Gem Kingdom."

Ye Yinchuan's eyes were firm. He might encounter obstacles and setbacks in the process of doing things, but he must have a heart that is determined to succeed.

"Help me arrange all these materials, and then call out all these Pokémon. Diancie's hatching can't be done without their help."

Ye Yinchuan asked A-Jie to lend a hand.

Ye Yinchuan hasn't made the hatching of Diancie public yet, and this process is quite important. There's only one Diancie Origin Crystal, and if anything goes wrong, the consequences would be unbearable, as it's linked to the fate of the entire Gem Kingdom...

Therefore, the fewer people present, the better, to avoid clutter and unnecessary distractions.

"Brother Jie, you've been protecting me all this time, thank you for your hard work..."

Just before it officially started, Ye Yinchuan suddenly said something that left A-Jie a little bewildered.

He looked at Ye Yinchuan and listened intently, as if he knew that the young man had something else to say.

"Would you like to take your Charizard's strength to the next level? If Diancie hatches successfully, I plan to use my authority to help your Charizard achieve Mega Evolution."

Upon hearing this, Ah Jie's hand, which was removing his sunglasses, trembled slightly.

"You mean Mega Evolution? Can my Charizard Mega Evolve too? Such a precious resource, are you sure you want to give it to me?" Ye Yinchuan nodded.

In fact, this was his tactic to win people's hearts. After all, A-Jie's mission was to protect himself. Official orders alone were just that—a mission. But if he could gain benefits from him, A-Jie would be even more determined to protect him. More importantly, he wouldn't be easily turned by potential enemies...

Another advantage is that Ajax is his protector; the stronger Ajax's Pokémon, the safer he will be...

Including the possibility of entering the Gem Kingdom and facing many unknown dangers, Ye Yinchuan plans to have A-Jie accompany him into the dungeon to act as his personal bodyguard. An 83-level Charizard capable of Mega Evolution is definitely more reliable than an ordinary 83-level Charizard!
"Of course, as long as the procedures are followed, I think there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

"I'm not so sure about that, I'll have to ask my boss later. But I think my old friend and I would be happy to do so."

A-Jie's lips curled up slightly. As an official special envoy, he was first and foremost a trainer. No one could refuse the opportunity to give their Pokémon a Mega Evolution.

The materials laid out on the ground were mostly diamonds or gemstones containing a large amount of Fairy-type energy... Among them, Moonstone, as a precious energy stone that has a high probability of evolving Fairy-type Pokémon, also accounted for a considerable proportion.

This is one of the conditions for hatching Diancie, which is to inject a large amount of fairy-type energy into the primordial crystal.

Diancie, being a Rock/Fairy type Pokémon, is indeed a perfect fit.

However, Ye Yinchuan had actually wanted to complain about something: there didn't seem to be any evolution stones in Pokémon that could specifically evolve Rock-type Pokémon. But thinking about it carefully, these evolution stones were stones themselves... Could there be Rock-type stones?

Thinking about it this way, it seems to make some sense.

The idea of ​​a fighter jet among airplanes is understandable, but the idea of ​​a stone among stones is quite humorous.

The Pokémon inside those Poké Balls are also Pokémon that can help Diancie's Origin Crystal hatch... naturally, they are Diancie's kind, Diamond Shard.

Diancie is extremely rare, being a Mythical Pokémon that's almost impossible to find, but Diamond Shards are much more common, though they're still a rare sight for most trainers...

However, with the help of the authorities, this small matter is no problem. But if Ye Yinchuan wants to collect it on his own, he has no channels and it would be time-consuming and laborious.

"Gah!"

The Soul-Hooking Eye was also dispatched by Ye Yinchuan.

Although he didn't know if he could be of any help with Diancie's hatching, Ye Yinchuan hadn't forgotten Super Soul-Hook's instructions: the Soul-Hook clan and the Diancie clan shared some kind of bond...

During the incubation and growth of Diancie, it would be best to keep Seraph by her side at all times. As long as they can work together, there will surely be good results.

For example, the Soul Reaver might receive Diancie's blessing.

"Only the last step left..."

Ye Yinchuan took out the crystallization of Diancie's essence, which was the large pink round diamond.

"This is what can hatch Diancie... I've seen it in your live stream before, but seeing it in person is still amazing..."

Ah Jie lowered his sunglasses slightly to better appreciate the treasure.

Ye Yinchuan remained silent, focused on the task at hand, awaiting the commencement of the ceremony.

At first, these tiny diamonds seemed a little lost and uneasy in the unfamiliar environment, but when Diancie's primordial crystal appeared, they seemed to be guided by some kind of instinct and came to surround Diancie's primordial crystal.

Ye Yinchuan asked A-Jie to film a video for him, while he would preside over the upcoming ceremony...

These tiny diamonds danced and swirled around Diancie's primordial crystal, releasing a peculiar energy...

This energy resonated with Diancie's primordial crystal, and then, like a chain reaction, the surrounding energy stones also began to emit a dazzling light...

"here we go."

Holding Diancie's Origin Crystal in his hands, Ye Yinchuan could feel the surging fairy energy within it constantly flowing out and exchanging and absorbing with the outside world...

"This feeling……"

Ye Yinchuan soon realized with surprise that his body seemed to be being transformed by this energy as well…

"Could it be a blessing?"

At this moment, Ye Yinchuan had an incredible feeling, and he couldn't help but wonder where this Diancie Origin Crystal came from...

This Pokémon can bestow blessings even before it hatches; it has the makings of a legendary Pokémon!

For a fleeting moment, a vague logic in Ye Yinchuan's mind suddenly clicked.

Even though Queen Diancie is so powerful that she can Mega Evolve, she couldn't save the hatched Jewel Kingdom; she could only seal it. So, even if a newly hatched Diancie grows up, can it really save the Jewel Kingdom?

There is only one truth: the Diancie that hatched from the Primal Crystal is not an ordinary Diancie, but a Diancie born with some kind of authority...

More details still need to be verified, but for now, this is all Ye Yinchuan can think of. Although he doesn't know what the effect of Diancie's blessing on him is, Ye Yinchuan can clearly feel Diancie's power surging and solidifying within his body!
More noteworthy than this is the change in the primordial crystal in my hand; it has released a dazzling light and even emits a sensation similar to body temperature and a heartbeat...

This is completely different from other Pokémon hatching; it's an unprecedented and entirely new experience, like a gem containing special and powerful energy being given life...

With the help of light shaping, a pink Pokémon that was somewhat humanoid, yet seemed to be wearing a little dress and had gem-like structures all over its body gradually appeared and began to move!
"As expected of the little princess of the Jewel Kingdom, Diancie is so cute..."

Although the weight in his hands was somewhat heavy, Ye Yinchuan was still a near-super rookie, and he wasn't so weak that he had to let go!

Okay, Diancie's weight in the Pokédex is actually only 8.8kg, and even in the real world, it might vary... Compared to other Pokémon, she's practically weightless!

It's such an adorable little duck that you can hold in your arms and cherish in your hands!
"Tianci, it really hatched..."

Ah-Jie, who was recording the whole thing, couldn't hide the astonishment on his face even with his sunglasses on...

Although Ye Yinchuan was excited, he still calmly observed Diancie's appearance.

Its lower body is made of rock, most of its body has a diamond structure, it has a crown-like head, and the sides of its head resemble twin ponytails or gauze-like diamond structures...

A large, round pink diamond adorns her forehead; her skin tone is almost rock-like; her ears resemble those of an elf; and her eyes are like red gemstones, only more rounded and adorable than those alluring eyes…

There are also diamond-shaped pieces on her chest, and gold decorations on her neck and brow. The gemstones and gold complement each other, making her look even more noble!

This is... the fairy princess of the Gem Kingdom!
