Live treasure appraisal: You are such an elf!

Chapter 481 A completely black Tauros? A different color? No, this is Tauros in its Padia form!
Since there's Espeon, will there also be Umbreon and Stareev?

I feel like Eevee is probably the most amazing Pokémon ever... It seems to have countless possibilities, and we haven't even fully explored them yet!

[Sigh, when I finally get my hands on Eevee's newest evolution, I'll also try to connect with the streamer!]

Although the assessment of Ibrahimovic has concluded, the wave of discussion in the live stream will need some time to subside.

Ye Yinchuan's gaze was no longer fixed on Espeon. With a new connection, a completely black Pokémon was almost right in front of the camera.

Seeing the Pokémon, Ye Yinchuan's eyes lit up, and a slight smile crept onto his lips. It seemed that today's live stream connection had been quite successful...

The quality of the subsequent program was further guaranteed.

[Oh my god, what kind of Pokémon is this? It looks like a giant black bull!]

[No way, no way, there can't be someone who doesn't recognize Tauros, right? It's just a color variant, they didn't even change the color, and you can't even tell the difference?]

[Seriously, it really does look like a black Tauros!]

There was a lot of discussion on the barrage.

Ye Yinchuan was already confident; this kind of Pokémon was not just a simple shiny.

"It is a Tauros, but it is definitely not an ordinary Tauros, nor is it just a hetero-colored Tauros... or even just a mutated individual."

The description was presented without any specific explanation, merely highlighting the uniqueness of Tauros's form, which undoubtedly piqued the audience's curiosity even more.

Even the person who had brought the Tauros couldn't help but take another look at their Pokémon, thinking to themselves, "I really do cherish this precious thing of mine."

"Looks like I made the right choice by hiring a livestreamer to appraise my treasures? They actually found something valuable?"

The person on the other end of the line grinned widely, almost unable to stop laughing.

He'd heard that someone had come to a streamer for authentication, discovered an amazing Pokémon, started a live stream, and displayed the Pokémon every day, receiving tons of gifts...

Even if you don't use Pokémon to make money, it's still a good thing if the value of the Pokémon you own increases.

[I'm so envious! If I hadn't gotten it verified by a streamer, I would have really thought it was a shiny Tauros. Looks like there's more to it than meets the eye!]

[Host, please tell us more! What makes this Tauros so special?]

"Didn't you notice that this Tauros's muscles are more developed than those of a regular Tauros?"

Ye Yinchuan didn't answer but asked a question instead.

Who taught you to answer other people's questions with questions?

Aren't all Tauros supposed to be muscular? But you know what, this Tauros does seem a bit more muscular!

Am I the only one who noticed that this Tauros's horns are different from those of a typical Tauros? A typical Tauros's horns are more curved, while this one's are rather straight...

Ye Yinchuan glanced at the comments and remarked that the public's eyes were discerning:
"That's right. Let me start by saying something positive. The common Tauros is a Normal type. But this special Tauros is a true Fighting type. Compared to the regular Tauros, which is better at using its horns to ram, this special Tauros prefers close-quarters combat, using its strong muscles to fight its opponent!"

[A Fighting-type Tauros? Is it a fake Tauros or a fake Tauros?]

[A cow can be a Fighting-type? Does that mean it can stand up and punch me?]

[Kentaro: Hey, didn't expect that, did you? I, Old Black Bull, also know a little bit about boxing!]

"The reason I say this Kentairo isn't a mutated individual is because I once saw a record of a tribe in ancient texts... in the ancient Parthian region..."

[The Parthian legend has appeared!]

[666, the streamer is rehashing old ideas again, isn't he!]

Are you really going to feed you for the rest of your life with just a few Pokémon books?

[Dude, where exactly is Napoleonica?]

"If you ask me where Padiya is, I can't say either. After all, the earth's crust moves and the geological landscape changes. What was once a sea may become a mulberry field."

Ye Yinchuan responded in this way,

"But Pokémon forms that appeared at a certain time, or rather, certain genes and bloodlines, will always be inherited in an unexpected way, either invisible or dominant, but one day, like today, they will appear in front of us!"

As he spoke, a sense of emotion and nostalgia appeared in Ye Yinchuan's eyes, a result of being too immersed in the role.

But no matter what, the world of Pokémon does have historical depth, including the changes in Pokémon species, which are indeed real. Ye Yinchuan's feelings are not without reason, or perhaps self-deception.

[Sounds pretty awesome!]

So the question is, besides its fighting attributes, what other characteristics does this Parthian black bull have?

[Can you prove it, streamer? Otherwise, just spout off. I can do that too. What if I make up a Panini Pikachu? How would you react then?]

"Fuck Panini..."

Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but think of the group-buying promotion he had just seen a couple of days ago.

But to the audience, he remained gentle and persuasive:
"Next, I will explain in detail. Let me make it clear first, this is only a preliminary judgment. I think this old black bull is a Canterlot from the Padian region. Further identification is needed to confirm whether it is."

The host is being modest again.

[It's been a long time since I've seen someone so idiotic take advantage of me. Can't I have something to laugh about?]

[Urgent! Waiting online!]

Ye Yinchuan had a considerable understanding of the situation of Patia Tauros, but since there were so many Pokémon, he still relied on the Pokédex for some things.

Speaking of which, Tauros of Patia is probably the only Pokémon in the game that has different forms from the same region, which makes it somewhat special.

However, Ye Yinchuan did not mention the other two forms of Padia Kentaur for the time being. After all, one must take things one step at a time. He had not yet explained this form clearly. But he already had a plan in mind. Perhaps this live broadcast would give him the opportunity to reveal and introduce the other two evolutionary forms of Padia Kentaur to the audience.

"I'll call this type and form of Tauros the Padia Tauros. As everyone knows, Tauros are known for their bad temper, and their personalities can vary depending on the individual and their species. Actually, besides the Padia Tauros, there were also Tauros in the ancient Galar region, but those Tauros weren't much different from the regular Tauros, and they could basically be merged..."

[Has the host gone off-topic?]

【It's all about Galilee and Parthia again, it's making my head spin!】

【So here's the question: even if there's no significant difference, there must be, right? Give me a clear answer!】 Ye Yinchuan realized that he had gone off-topic, but that was inevitable. It's like when a language arts teacher is lecturing; their thoughts wander, and they don't finish explaining the key points before rambling on.

There's the regular Taro, Galarian Taro, and Patia Taro, with Patia Taro having three forms, not to mention Ultraman Taro...

These concepts, when put together, are truly difficult to distinguish.

Since we've brought it up, let me explain briefly. Anyway, Galarian Tauros isn't really an independent form; even in the official Pokédex, it's only mentioned briefly.

"Although the temperament of a normal Tauros is already bad enough, the Tauros of the Galar region are the most aggressive. They almost never allow humans to ride on their backs, and when preparing to charge, they will lash out at themselves with their three tails..."

Oh, and there's also the Alolan Tauros. These Tauros are much more docile and stable, likely due to their climate. The earliest recorded instance of riding a Tauros dates back to the Alolan region.

[Dude, this is getting more and more ridiculous. Is Tauros just a wanderer, going wherever he pleases?]

[Interesting, but not much...]

[No wonder my Tauros wouldn't let me ride it; looks like it has Galarian blood!]

My dog ​​is so docile, it's highly likely his ancestors lived in Alora, haha!

The viewers in the live stream got excited, especially those who own Tauros pets, as this was something that was closely related to them, making them feel very involved and connected.

Just like the Chinese zodiac and constellations, there are different categories that allow everyone to find their place. This is especially true for the constellations, which are so popular for a similar reason.

Ye Yinchuan himself steered the conversation back on track—

"I forgot to mention earlier, Tauros of Padia, although his horns are shorter and don't have curved horns, still uses them to target the opponent's vital points in battle..."

“Some of you just asked how Padiaconteiro fights, right? Of course, you can’t just stand up and punch and kick you, but fighting isn’t just about using your fists to attack like a boxer; that’s too narrow a view…”

"Let me give you a few simple examples. Moves like Double Kick, Bodybuilding, and Pounce are all Fighting-type moves. Not to mention Tauros's signature move, Raging Bull. When a regular Tauros uses it, it's a Normal-type move, but when the Tauros of Padia uses it, it's a pure Fighting-type move with incredible power."

Wait a minute, does Tauros have any more signature moves?

[The raging bull...that sounds quite exclusive!]

Looks like the host is about to share some new information, I love it!

"Uh……"

Ye Yinchuan can be said to have been cursed by knowledge.

Because through the Pokédex, he could easily absorb and master both the Pokémon knowledge from before his transmigration and the Pokémon knowledge of this world…

So much so that he overlooked the fact that the "Raging Bull" move is not known to everyone; even some trainers who breed Tauros may not know this move.

The reason is simple: Raging Bull is an advanced move that requires at least level 35 to master in the game. In reality, it has even more demanding learning conditions, and most Tauros don't know how to use it!

"Raging Bull is Tauros's high-level exclusive move, which generally requires a relatively high level, at least level 35 or above, to master. The effect of Raging Bull will vary greatly depending on the regional form of Tauros!"

[So... there are only two types of regional variations, right? But from the streamer's tone, it sounds like there are many more?]

[Normally and Fighting types, there can't be any other types, right?]

Ye Yinchuan was getting impatient and wanted to tell the audience, "Hey, you guys were right, there really is one!"
But he is a big streamer after all, with a big heart, and he can always keep his composure. He held it in until the end and then said it, enjoying the surprised reactions of the viewers. That was really satisfying!
"The 'Raging Bull' move is incredibly powerful, and it concentrates all the body's strength and energy into a single point. It has a strong destructive effect on moves like Light Wall and Reflection Wall, making it a powerful point-to-point breakthrough..."

Oh? It has such an effect? ​​That's incredible!

[Yeah... Generally speaking, moves like Light Screen are very effective against Pokémon like Tauros that charge around recklessly. If you had a move like Rage Bull as a counter, it could turn the tide of the battle!]

[Haki Niu, you actually managed to master this move, and I didn't even know it!]

"Let's talk about the abilities of the Padia Tauros. Although it's a Padia Tauros, it's still a Tauros in essence, so the Intimidate and Rage abilities are still possible... but the Hidden ability is another matter."

"A regular Tauros has a chance to have the hidden ability 'Help,' but a Padia Tauros will not have 'Help,' instead it has another hidden ability..."

Ye Yinchuan stared intently at the camera, his smile radiating confidence.

Stop staring at me and say something!

[You're handsome, but I really want to punch you, you know?]

“Okay, so it is regurgitation.”

Ye Yinchuan pondered it for a moment, but still felt that this characteristic was somewhat abstract.

"The effect of rumination is that the food you eat is vomited up from your stomach and then eaten again!"

[Host, are you trying to make me laugh to death? Is this considered a characteristic? Every cow ruminates, right?]

[Are you guys kidding? The streamer already said it's a Pokémon ability, how could it be that simple? There must be something special about it!]

"By the way, the strength of this rumination property is that it can enjoy the effects of a tree fruit twice as many times as others do after eating it once... and it can store the tree fruit in its stomach in advance and vomit it up to eat when needed..."

"Seriously? Enjoy it twice? That's incredibly awesome!"

Is this scientifically sound?

[You mean, even with a powerful Devil Fruit that grants a permanent boost, Patiacantero can enjoy the effect twice through regurgitation?]

Ye Yinchuan nodded, confirming the minor doubts raised in the comments.

In the game, the rumination trait has a certain function.

In the Pokémon world, the effectiveness of this ability is far greater than it appears...

Not only can it be used flexibly in battle, but it can also serve as a support for growth-type traits, allowing Tauros to enjoy various available resources and obtain double the effect!

Having explained its characteristics, the introduction to Patiacantello is now basically complete.

Ye Yinchuan then examined the Tauros and nodded in confirmation:

"This Tauros perfectly matches the characteristics of a Padia Tauros. The only pity is that it doesn't have the hidden ability Rumination, but rather the relatively common Intimidate. However, this ability is not weak. My Incineroar has the same ability, and it is still very helpful in battle!"
