Pokémon: Having just completed the Pokédex, I'm now traversing the world of Beast Taming.

"Do you have a relatively large space in your home?"

Chi Hong asked, turning the page of Yang Ruyi's notebook again, squinting as he carefully examined his mother's theory, even secretly speculating in his mind and incorporating some of his own understanding.

"A bigger place? You don't mean...?"

"Is there enough space for pet battles? If you want to fight my uncle one-on-one, at least wait until you're done with your work tomorrow, okay?"

Shen Yuzhi thought she knew Chi Hong very well. This guy was a battle maniac, a complete fighter. Even his codename was something as explosive as Crimson.

Why would I fight him one-on-one?

"You don't really think your uncle can withstand me if I wanted to make a move, do you?"

Chi Hong looked up at Shen Yuzhi in surprise, seemingly quite taken aback by her idea.

"Huh?" Shen Yuzhi was taken aback and asked in confusion, "I thought that even if you were to give me face, you would at least teach him a lesson."

"What on earth are you talking about?" Chi Hong looked at Shen Yuzhi and reiterated, "I've never been one for fighting! My only joy is helping others!"

"Okay, okay, okay..."

"A kind person who enjoys helping others."

Shen Yuzhi nodded helplessly, then stood up and said, "The larger area is in the backyard, which is more than enough to accommodate pet battles."

"Wait...you don't want to spar with me, do you? Let me make it clear, I'm not fighting you!"

"If you feel like you're just sitting around doing nothing, I'll ask my middleman and you can go out and do some work, just like you're fighting."

Shen Yuzhi waved his hands repeatedly, revealing that he had actually sparred with Luo Dongjun and Ye Rou before.

He narrowly defeated Ye Rou, then got thoroughly beaten by Luo Dongjun...

"I can't even beat Sister Jun, so if I fight Chi Hong, I'd be completely brainless."

Just as Shen Yuzhi finished complaining, her phone rang. She took it out and was immediately startled!

"Why is it that what I'm thinking of comes true?" Shen Yuzhi glanced at the caller ID; it showed Luo Dongjun...

Shen Yuzhi answered the phone, but Chi Hong didn't understand what they were talking about at all. In short, he only understood one thing: Luo Dongjun would arrive in Datong City tomorrow to see Shen Yuzhi.

"Knowing the three of you is truly unfortunate!" Shen Yuzhi put her phone in her pocket and looked at Chi Hong, saying, "Let me treat the old man for you."

"Ye Rou has mental problems and needs to come in for a checkup every month."

"Sister Jun is even more amazing. I spent three months trying to cure a birthmark, but it didn't work. This time, I'm determined to have it cut open to see if that birthmark has somehow grown into the bone!"

"That's all for now. The venue isn't far ahead. I need to go get some ointment for Sister Jun. Please make yourself at home, Crimson Hero!"

Shen Yuzhi suddenly looked tired and was about to leave when Chi Hong immediately raised his hand to stop her. "I might make a commotion later. There should be nannies, cleaners, and security guards in this manor, right?"

Tell them not to come here.

Shen Yuzhi nodded and pointed ahead, saying, "Don't make any noise like an S-level fight, or you'll be fine. That place is quite special. My uncle's grandfather set it up back then; it's a good place for cultivation."

After saying that, Shen Yuzhi strode away.

"It seems being a doctor is much harder than being a Taoist priest..."

Chi Hong chuckled to himself, then walked toward the area. Soon, a huge open space came into view, with very regular lines on the ground, resembling a chessboard at first glance.

"No, this is indeed a venue modeled after a chessboard." Chi Hong looked to the east and west sides and could see two huge water tank-like structures, which should be the containers used to hold the chess pieces.

"Now let's begin the practical exercise!"

"Come out, Brother Frog!!"

Chi Hong couldn't figure out what was going on. He raised his hand and waved it in front of him, and a mist of water appeared. The figure of Greninja appeared vaguely.

Chi Hong didn't quite understand either. Other Pokémon didn't actually have this kind of "special effect" when they appeared. Maybe Greninja wanted to maintain its "frog persona". Its appearance had to be accompanied by a mist of water.

"Cool frog~"

Greninja glanced around and, finding no opponents, instantly appeared in front of Chi Hong.

"Let's warm up first, let's unite our minds." Chi Hong nodded slightly to the Greninja.

"Cool Frog!"

In a state of perfect concentration, Greninja instantly understood what Ike Hong was going to do and how he was going to do it, and it also had a general direction.

Greninja hopped into the arena, stretched its body, and nodded to Chi Hong.

"Alright! A formidable foe, I'll unleash it now for you to fight!"

Chi Hong picked up a crystal, which burst into green flames, and a huge skeleton bird spread its wings and appeared in front of Greninja.

S-rank tyrannical pet beast, Evil Flame Bone Bird!

This silly bird Chi Hong seems perfect as a whetstone!

"Gah~~"

The Evil Flame Bone Bird cried out to the sky, and green flames rose up, but they did not drift beyond the walls of the arena.

"Froakie!!" Greninja looked at Chi Hong, its fighting spirit high!

"Alright! Greninja, enhance your aura!!" Chi Hong activated his aura, and Greninja's aura suddenly rose to a higher level, reaching the peak of A-rank!

"Next up is... Mega Evolution!!" Chi Hong raised his right hand, and the Keystone burst forth with light!

In a flash of light, Greninja's appearance remained almost unchanged, except that it was hanging upside down on a wildly spinning sailor shuriken.

Greninja instantly transforms into a helicopter-flying frog...

"My frog brother hung himself from the propeller and insisted that he had Mega Evolved..."

"I have to say, I'm truly impressed."

Chi Hong couldn't help but complain, but Greninja didn't care. Instead, it crossed its arms and stared seriously at the Evil Flame Bone Bird.

Greninja's level has now surpassed A-rank, and its strength has greatly improved!

However, in reality, this form of Greninja is actually less practical in the game than the regular Greninja with the item equipped...

Why do you want to ask?

Because Mega Greninja's base stats are quite low, and the Mega Stone takes up an item slot...

There weren't many truly remarkable breakthroughs.

Compared to Garchomp Z, whose speed is like a rocket taking off, Greninja's Mega Evolution is somewhat disappointing.

"It's confirmed: there are Greninja haters inside GF..."

"When I first watched the anime, I thought it was a sure win!"

Chi Hong let out a helpless complaint, but fortunately, they were in the Beastmaster World, and after Mega Evolution, Greninja's aura was so strong that it reached a certain level!
