You're not allowed to play Pokémon!

Chapter 29: The incident where I told a joke about earth dragons and was overheard by Zhulan herself.
The scene of the house rat beating up the Metagross was truly shocking.

After all, Metagross is a rare "late bloomer" Pokémon in the Hoenn region, and once it evolves into its final form, it will possess extremely terrifying combat power.

It's like comparing heaven and earth to a family of rats.

But this powerful Pokémon was almost defeated by a mouse?

"Tsk, it's a good thing this game isn't crystallized yet, otherwise Metagross would have been finished too."

Qingyu clicked her tongue in amazement.

It's not that the mouse didn't try, it's just that the opponent was too tough!

"My mouse setup is a combination of expert skill and wide-angle lens. You can calculate the number of mice and damage from two big clean-ups yourselves. Any other Pokémon would have been down by now!"

As soon as these words were spoken, many viewers with some knowledge of the game immediately began writing furiously in the live chat.

The effect of the "Master Technician" trait is to increase the damage of low-power moves, which synergizes very well with multi-hit attacks!

[I'm familiar with the Mouse Counting move. As long as it doesn't miss, it will keep attacking until it hits ten times. What if it's combined with the accuracy boost from a wide-angle lens...?]

[Holy crap, 99% hit rate every time? That's practically the same as dealing full damage almost every time!]

[This mouse can hit ten times every time, and it also has the skill bonus. It's been enhanced twice more. This power doesn't seem exaggerated after all...]

If we also consider the power boost from type match and crystallization, it seems Metagross really can't withstand a single punch.

People who play Pokémon battles are generally good at math, and the comments quickly confirmed that Qingyu's words were not an exaggeration.

That's way too violent! Is this the kind of output a house mouse should have?

Under the mouse's relentless biting attack, the other side was tormented to a great extent.

They couldn't win in a fight, and their commands were always predictable to Qingyu.

In the end, the opponent could not bear the humiliation and, after the mouse achieved a perfect 4-0 score, quickly typed "GG" and chose to surrender.

A family of rats on the Qingyu Field still stood proudly on the earth.

The scars on his body were nothing more than the marks of time and hardship.

[Master Mouse is unbeatable! Why didn't the streamer show this off sooner?]

[This wide-angle lens is a stroke of genius! It makes the damage output incredibly stable. Unless you're extremely unlucky, you're guaranteed to hit all your targets. It's so awesome!]

[I've learned it! Tomorrow I'll go tame a wild mouse, and once I've raised it, I'll challenge the streamer in Little Key Town!]

"So if I wear a helmet with bumps, won't you explode?"

It has to be said that as the number of viewers increased, the number of talented people in the comments section also increased significantly.

While most of the comments were still thinking about copying homework, some people had already figured out how to counter Master Mouse's "parental love" offensive.

Qingyu was immediately delighted.

"Sure, this comment is right. The 'Bump Helmet' and 'Rough Skin' traits are indeed very effective against multi-hit contact moves like 'Rat'."

"Whether it hits a protruding helmet or rough skin, it could backfire and kill you."

"Of course, the best way is to not give the mouse a chance to strengthen itself. This applies to almost all strengthening hands."

The main reason the opposing team suffered such a crushing defeat was due to the information gap.

Because they were unaware that a rat had a move called "Clean-up" that perfectly countered the nail team, they were given the opportunity to strengthen themselves at the start, which resulted in raising a monster.

This situation is actually quite normal.

Limited by regional factors, before the gradual development of technology in the last decade, the means of communication between different regions were actually very limited.

Even in this day and age, most people have little knowledge of other regions.

Not to mention understanding so many different Pokémon from different regions.

From this perspective, my teaching is actually quite meaningful.

In addition to attracting local audiences to challenge gyms, it also introduces the Pokémon of the Padilla region to trainers around the world.

Moreover, he knows quite a bit about Pokémon from other regions.

This is his unique natural advantage; even the regional professors may not have as comprehensive an understanding of Pokémon battles as he does.

If he can continue to produce content in the future, his influence might be no less than that of Professor Oak, who proposed the National Pokédex concept.

What a godfather of combat! (hands on hips.jpg)

……

During the subsequent live stream, Qingyu used only one Rat Master to repeatedly achieve the feat of passing through the team.

Of course, the main reason was that he encountered several variant nail teams.

The lineup and tactics may be adjusted, but the core of the nail team will always be placing nails. This gives the Rat Master room to maneuver.

As long as you can catch Skarmory or other Spikes Setters, Ratmaster can safely buff himself up and wipe out the team at lightning speed.

Even when occasionally limited by Normal-type restrictions and forced to switch when encountering Ghost-type Pokémon, the terrifying biting attack of the Ichiro still exerted a very strong suppressive force, leaving a deep impression on the audience.

With Master Mouse's powerful carry performance, Qingyu's record remained consistently green, and she smoothly reached the advanced level.

however……

If it weren't for the fact that we lost the game because we missed the number of mice at the start, everything would have been perfect.

[What?! You missed a move with a 99% hit rate right at the start?!]

[As expected, battles are a game of luck. Even someone as strong as Yu-sensei, Tōtendai, can be punished by Lady Luck, haha.]

[The system is really kicking in during this tribulation! Who would have thought the streamer's first defeat would be so swift? But why am I laughing so happily...?]

Those who play tactics are inherently cunning, so it's understandable that they're punished!

Faced with the mocking comments, Qingyu stared at the prominent red "failure" on the screen and could only awkwardly scratch his head.

"Even if the probability is 1%, it's bound to happen if you play too much, right? It can't be that I'm just unlucky...?"

Qingyu muttered strange things like "losing a game resets your luck" and "a 1% chance of winning is also a kind of good luck."

This caused the chat to erupt in laughter, filling the live stream with a joyful atmosphere.

Happy times are always short-lived.

"It doesn't seem like today is a good day to climb the ranks. Maybe we should save it for later?"

Seeing that he had failed to transcend the tribulation, Qingyu felt that it was about time and was preparing to skillfully cut off the stream and end the broadcast in a shameful manner.

[No wonder he's the fastest man in the world; broadcasting for only one hour a day is truly something else...]

[Wait a minute! Before you leave, Mr. Yu, could you tell me which Pokémon are good for dealing with a family of rats? Since everyone will be learning them eventually anyway, I might as well just learn how to counter them~]

Holy crap, you're a genius upstairs! You're on the second floor!

[It's like a mille-feuille!]

How to counter a family of rats?

Qingyu raised an eyebrow after noticing the comments.

Do I really need to teach this? Just find a Fighting-type Pokémon and one punch will solve the problem.

Hmm... if you're not as fast as one of the other mice, it does seem risky.

Are there any simpler Pokémon?

After much thought, Qingyu finally came up with an answer:
"How about Garchomp? Its Rough Skin ability and Thrust Helmet make it a headache not only for the Rats, but also disgusting for most melee Pokémon."

"Although the Earth Dragon can't learn Dragon Dance and is far less noble than the Rat Family who can use Rat Dance, it's still very useful~"

After subconsciously telling a joke about an earthworm, Qingyu waited with great interest for the comments to follow.

[To rebel against the Heavenly Guardians, do I, a dignified quasi-god of the Dragon element, have no dignity?]

[Little Blackie, you've finally shown your true colors!]

Ever since he noticed the comments about the dodo bird, he had a pretty good idea that people in this world would also use some interesting memes.

Unsurprisingly.

Qingyu gradually recovered from her initial defeat.

Just then, a glittering, gold-rimmed paid message appeared right in the center of his vision.

[Mythologist Cynthia: If Garchomp heard this, it would probably be very angry, right? (laughs while covering face)]

?

Noticing the prominent lightning bolt icon below the user ID and avatar, Qingyu frowned, realizing that things didn't seem so simple.

He subconsciously clicked on the user's profile, and the seven-figure number of followers showed just how popular this viewer was.

The description consists of only one line of small print:
The newly crowned Sinnoh League Champion, Cynthia.

What should I do if I get caught telling a joke about earthworms in a live stream by Zhu Lan herself?
Waiting online, very anxious.

Diary of a Fallen Hero, May 4.28
To save time, I've posted the reader group for the previous book; feel free to join if you're interested.

Actually, it's been posted for a few days now, but I only realized today that the group question hasn't been changed; it's still asking for the name of the main character in the old book...

I'm stupid, I've already corrected it, the current answer is Qingyu!
