Let you make a game, what the hell is Pokemon?.

Chapter 114: Rewards from the research institute and another challenge from a strong rival!
Shirona couldn't help but recall the first time she met Shui Wutong in the game. It seemed that he came up and told her his ultimate plan without any hesitation.

——He said he wanted the ocean to swallow up the entire earth, turning the entire world into a vast ocean and creating a brand new world!

To be honest, even Shirona couldn't help but find such a plan and goal a bit unbelievable, because it didn't seem like something an ordinary person would do, let alone the possibility of achieving it.
But if this is the plan proposed by the leader of the largest dark organization in the Hoenn region, then she has to face it.
Because she knows that people like this will go all out to achieve their goals even if there is a 1% chance of success.

From this, we can infer that everything the water fleet is doing now is probably to realize this plan.

So, the submarines mentioned above could still be connected to the ocean. After all, only by building such advanced submarines could one freely and properly explore the depths of the ocean. Perhaps somewhere on the seabed, there was something the fleet was looking for.
But what is the connection between this weather data and their plan?
As far as he could remember, the ocean in the Hoenn region seemed to be quite calm for the past hundred years, without even a single storm. It was the region with the best ocean weather conditions among the four regions.

As for extremely dangerous natural disasters such as tsunamis, needless to say, similar things have not been heard of in hundreds of years.

Therefore, the ocean data provided by the Weather Research Institute should be of no use.

And at this moment, Shirona suddenly realized that what she knew about the ocean weather conditions in the Hoenn region was based on the real world, and the situation in the game might not be the same as what she knew!
She immediately pressed the interact button, breaking the silence in the game room, and spoke to the old man:

[Sir, have there been any unusual incidents in the oceans of the Hoenn region recently?]

As soon as these words were spoken, a black question mark suddenly appeared above the old man's head. He immediately shook his head and answered Shirona's question.

[Any abnormalities in the ocean? As far as I know, there haven't been any similar incidents. The oceans surrounding Hoenn have been very calm lately, which is reassuring.]

【What's wrong, little girl? Why are you asking me this question suddenly? 】

The old man's answer made Shirona in front of the screen pause for a moment. It seemed that the ocean conditions in the Hoenn region in the game were the same as she knew.

Did you guess wrong?
The water fleet doesn’t want ocean weather data?
While she was thinking, Daigo stepped forward and patted the old man on the shoulder.

[I'm sorry, I'm late and can't help you protect that information.]

The old man sighed and shook his head.

"It's okay. We have a backup of that information within our institute, but I'm a little worried that the people in the water fleet might use it for inappropriate purposes. I just hope that what happens next won't be too bad."

Then Daigo's gaze fell on Sirona again.

"So, Strawberry Ice Cream, you discovered that someone was attacking the research institute, so you stepped forward? I was right about you. You are a brave child with a strong sense of justice."

"But next time you encounter this kind of situation, I hope you can be more considerate and put your own safety first. After all, a situation like just now is really dangerous."

As he spoke, he seemed to remember something and took out a small box from his body.

[Oh right, just in time, your father asked me to give this to you, so I was just getting ready. I didn’t expect to see you again so soon.]

An icon of an item also appeared in front of Shirona. It was a small spiral-shaped stone with colorful light.

A prompt popped up: Ding! Congratulations to the player for obtaining the special item: Mega Keystone!

[Introduction: Essential for Pokémon's mega evolution, excellent quality]

The moment she saw this item, even Shirona felt her heart skip a beat.

On the way to the research institute, she had wondered when she would be able to obtain this essential item for mega evolution. She had not expected that happiness would come so suddenly.

At the same time, the comments in the live broadcast room all turned their attention away from the discussion about the water fleet attack and focused on the key stone that was given as a gift.

To be precise, it was focused on Daigo.

[Fuck, Boss Daigo is really generous. The last time we met the streamer, he gave me a top-quality Leaf Stone, and now he's given me a Key Stone. I'm almost wondering if these things are worthless and just given away casually.]

[This is just the beginning! Do you understand the value of being the only designated eldest son of the Devon Company?]

[I'm from Kanto. Are there any viewers from Hoenn who can share their own opinions on whether Daigo is really that heroic?]

[Hey buddy, I'm from Hoenn. I can attest to the fact that Daigo always sends people to throw Evolution Stones to fans during every fan meeting. They throw them by the truckload. But one time, they hit someone, so they stopped giving them away later.]

[6, buddy, before you say that, could you please change your IP address? Aren't you in Padya right now?]

【He can’t come here for tourism! 】

Compared to the key stone, it is obvious that Daigo's heroic move is more interesting to the audience.

At the same time in the game, after Daigo handed the key stone to Shirona, he spoke in a deep voice.

Mega evolution is an extremely powerful force, but its core lies in the bond between you and your Pokémon. I heard from Qianli that you already have the corresponding Mega Stone for your Pokémon, but it's best not to rush. Failures are normal when you first try mega evolution. Generally speaking, it takes at least 10 days to half a month of training to master it.

【I look forward to the day when you master this power! 】

However, the words just fell.

The moment Shirona took the mega stone, a colorful light suddenly burst out from the body of the Lizard King who had just been protecting her because Shui Wutong stepped forward!

In a flash of light, the Lizard King successfully mega-evolved again.
A huge red question mark slowly floated above Daigo's head in the game:
?

At the same time, the barrage in Shirona's live broadcast room exploded again.

【Hahahahahaha, Qianli didn't tell him that the anchor had successfully mega evolved. Now look, Daigo must be dumbfounded, right?】

[Nonsense, if you tried to teach your daughter a lesson by mega evolving in a gym battle, but ended up getting beaten up by her instead, would you tell anyone about it?]

[That makes sense. That's exactly what's going on.]

[This is the streamer's pure love for Pokémon! What bonds and difficulties? I don't understand!] As the comments flashed by, the normal storyline continued in the game after the brief interlude.

After handing the key stone to Shirona, Daigo asked the old curator about the attack of the water fleet, and then left the institute very quickly on his Armored Bird, saying that he wanted to see if he could find the people from the water fleet and report the details of the attack to the alliance.

As for Sirona, her action was naturally appreciated by the museum director and researchers.

According to the agreement between the researcher and her, the researcher took her to a small room and showed her all the props stored in the Weather Research Institute.

These things are of great value, and Shirona has never seen them in the previous game process.

For example, a group of 10 nest balls can greatly increase the probability of capturing water and insect-type elves.
Another example is the Mystic Water Drop, a portable item that can directly increase the power of Water-type Pokémon's skills by 30%.

Even the game description didn't specify what the specific purpose was, but it was obvious at first glance that this mysterious scale was not an ordinary item.
Among the various props, Shirona was indeed a little hesitant.

The Nest Ball will greatly facilitate her when she captures Water Pokémon to form a rainy day team, and the Mystic Water Droplet will also significantly improve the Water-type skills of Owl or Rakuten Kappa.

But after careful consideration, she finally decided to choose the mysterious scale.

The reason is simple - whether it is a carry-on item or a Poké Ball, there should be a chance to get it again later, and in games like now, there are things whose specific uses are not described. It is definitely a special item to choose it at first glance.

After saying goodbye to the people from the research institute, when Shirona went out, the suspension bridge on the right was successfully cleared, and she could continue to move towards Yinyu City.

Just as she crossed the suspension bridge and took a few steps, the game screen paused again, and a familiar figure suddenly came towards her!

It was the old acquaintance who had fought countless fierce battles with Shirona - the rival "black-haired boy".

"Strawberry Ice Cream, you're really fast. You've already passed your dad's gym, but so have I."

[Since we've met, how about a battle? I'll show you how much my Pokémon and I have grown!]

As the rival spoke, countless Poké Balls flashed across the screen, and the game went straight into the battle interface.

And in Shirona's live broadcast room, the barrage of comments began to laugh and smile at this moment.

If every time Shirona encountered a strong opponent before, it meant that she would definitely face a tough battle, then the situation is completely different now.

[Sister Nana, let him see Victini's double stats and the cheat-like power-up. Teach him a lesson!]

[Go ahead! Mega-evolve the Forest Lizard King, then double-strengthen Victini and push all the way through!]

[Hahahaha, this guy has really run into trouble this time. Now the anchor has reached his full form.]

"What kind of rival Pokémon is this? I thought it was a speed bump. I ran over it without noticing. I'm so sorry."

According to the rules of the game, in official battles, Sirona has no way to use Victini's Victory Star characteristic to strengthen her own Pokémon.

However, the challenge of a strong opponent is obviously not restricted by this rule. After all, this is just a battle initiated spontaneously between trainers.

But at this moment, Shirona's behavior was beyond everyone's expectations. She shook her head slightly at the computer screen.

"I don't plan on using Victini's power or mega evolution in this battle."

"Because I think he's a worthy opponent and I hope to have a fair fight with him."

Shirona's words made the comments in the live broadcast room suddenly quiet down, and in just a few seconds, they began to refresh rapidly again.

[Pattern! See? This is called pattern.]

[No wonder Nana-san was able to become the champion. It's obvious that she takes every worthwhile battle seriously, even within the game.]

[I've learned that. Indeed, if I use Mega Evolution and Victini's special abilities to push through without any problems, this battle really doesn't make any sense.]

After replying to the barrage, Sirona turned her attention back to the battle at hand and sent out Owl as the starting Pokémon.

The first Pokémon sent out by the rival enemy is Magneto.

From the perspective of attributes, this is undoubtedly a very disadvantageous start. After all, the Toucan is 4 times weaker than the Toucan.

However, for Shirona, it is enough to create rainy weather the moment the Toucan appears. It is not necessary for it to fight and can be switched freely, so it is acceptable.

The Pokémon in the team that has an advantage over Magneto only has one choice left.

——She chose to switch to Victini without hesitation!
Just as his rival said, he had indeed grown a lot during the time he was away. Not only had the level of his Pokémon reached around level 48, but the number of his Pokémon had also increased greatly, reaching a full complement of 6.

However, even without using mega evolution and Victini's characteristics, Sirona's team configuration is already very strong.

Under Sirona's command and perfect operational decision-making, after a hard battle, the last Pokémon of the rival, Ace Blaziken, also fell under the Surf Technique used by Gallup, announcing the end of the battle.

"You've become very strong too. But next time we meet, I promise I won't lose again!"

[This is for you. Keep it safe. It can reveal hidden rewards all around... Be sure to use it well, you can find a lot of goodies!]

After saying these two sentences, the rival handed a prop to Shirona and walked away quickly and disappeared.

And in front of Sirona, a line of prompts popped up.

[Congratulations, the item "Treasure Hunting Device" has been added to your backpack!]
