Pokémon: Hard work pays off, moves can be upgraded infinitely.

After the initial surprise, Mu Yun immediately focused on the product information for the Evolution Essence.

Such a wonderful item, I wonder what the price is. If it's as expensive as the Fairy Treasure, I'm afraid I'll have to put it aside for now and leave it in the category of things I can only look at but not buy.

..............................

【Evolution Essence: A special essence born in the land of miracles, which can give Pokémon a transformation comparable to evolution. When a Pokémon with a base stat total of less than 500 absorbs it, it will permanently increase its two highest base stat totals by 5 points each. There is no limit to the amount a single individual can absorb.

Price: 1000 points/piece

..............................

One thousand points!?

"Hiss~~!!"

Upon seeing this price, Mu Yun gasped in shock!

It's not that I think it's too expensive, but that I think it's not expensive at all!

One thousand points can permanently increase a race value by ten points, and ten thousand points can increase it by one hundred points. For the same price, a Pokémon Treasure can only increase the power of a move by a dozen points.

The difference in strength is obvious at a glance!

Of course, this mainly refers to Pokémon with base stats below 500. If they are above 500, evolution essence is completely useless.

However, in any case, the price of 1000 points is completely within Mu Yun's acceptable range.

It's worth noting that during the day, while hunting Gyarados, Namikaze casually knocked out quite a few Magikarp.

Thinking about it, Mu Yun immediately looked at the points section.

..............................

Points: 27033

..............................

27,000 points are enough to exchange for 27 Evolution Essences.

Even if you only need to keep some points for later, you can still exchange them for more than twenty.

With the eight from the mission settlement, gathering thirty evolution essences is no problem at all.

However, Mu Yun didn't rush to spend money. Instead, he first calculated the total amount needed by Xiao Du, Bo Feng, and Bing Bing.

First up is Xiaodu, with 395 base stats, requiring eleven evolution essences, for a total of 11000 points.

Next is Namikaze, currently with 349 base stats, requiring sixteen evolution essences, totaling 16000 points.

Finally, there's Bingbing, who currently has 299 base stats and requires 21 evolution essences, for a total of 21000 points.

Total of 48000 points!

It's a pity that Xiao Du and Bo Feng have already evolved; otherwise, Mu Yun would be more than willing to spend a few more points.

Speaking of which, should I raise a Magikarp or Feebas in the future? Both of these Pokémon have a base stat total of only 200 before evolution, but they can increase by 340 after evolution, making them the evolutions with the highest stat increase.

After that, only the two evolutions from Slacker to Slaking will have such a high growth rate, soaring from 280 to 670.

However, considering the base stat distribution of Magikarp and Feebas, based on their two highest base stats, before evolution, one has Defense and Speed, and the other has Special Defense and Speed.

After evolving, the latter is still okay, since Milotic is a special defense user, but the former is in an awkward position, since Gyarados is a pure physical attacker.

While increasing physical defense isn't entirely useless, it's definitely a slight loss. Fortunately, the speed boost makes it all worthwhile.

Besides Magikarp, Feebas, and Slaking, Ralts is also one of the Pokémon whose base stats increase significantly after evolution.

The jump from 198 points to 518 points is quite an impressive increase.

Most importantly, Ralts has always had high Special Attack, making it very suitable for using Evolution Essence.

"It's a pity that the Wishiwashi doesn't have an evolved form, only a school of fish. Otherwise, I could raise some Wishiwashi..." Mu Yun sighed to himself.

As the Pokémon with the lowest base stats, Wishiwashi has only 175 base stats, but when it gathers into a school of fish, it can rival a Pokémon with 620 base stats.

It's a pity this isn't the evolved form; otherwise, after maxing it out with Evolution Essence, its base stats could reach 950 points, almost matching Eternatus!

After briefly considering which Pokémon would be suitable to use Evolution Essence, Mu Yun quickly withdrew his thoughts.

No matter how good other elves are, they are not what he needs to consider right now.

A bird in the hand is worth more than a hundred birds in the forest.

Right now, we still need to think about how to allocate the evolution essence to Xiao Du and the other two.

Considering that Bingbing's evolution is controllable, Mu Yun felt that there was no need to rush to give it to her.

Xiao Du is already in its final evolved form, so there's no rush for now.

Only Namikaze, already at level 27, is not far from evolving into Pidgeot.

Therefore, Mu Yun decided to prioritize using it on Bo Feng. In addition to the eight evolution essences obtained from the mission, he would need to exchange for eight more later.

Although Pidgeotto's two highest base stats are Speed ​​and HP, which don't contribute to Attack and Special Attack, it's still a decent boost.

Thinking about it, Mu Yun had a sudden thought.

Points -8000!

Eight more evolution essences appeared in the storage space.

"Namikaze, come here for a second."

After exchanging the evolution essence, Mu Yun waved to Bo Feng.

"Pop!"

Bo Feng understood immediately, quickly came to Mu Yun, landed on the dining table, folded his wings, bent down and lowered his head, looking like he was waiting to be patted on the head.

Seeing this, Mu Yun, who hadn't originally intended to pat her head, felt that it wouldn't be right not to raise his hand.

So he raised his right hand and placed it on Bofeng's head, then pressed an evolution essence onto his feather.

hum~~

A visible ripple emerged from the center of the silvery-white evolution essence, and the golden mark, like a crown, emitted a crisp sound.

The sound was extremely pure, unlike any instrument Mu Yun had ever heard played.

It is ethereal and otherworldly, as if it came from the heavens, carrying a touch of sacredness that cleanses the soul, and a touch of majesty that one dares not look directly at.

Accompanied by the sacred sound, the tiny essence of evolution, like snow in early spring under the blazing sun, quickly melted into the skin of the ripples.

........................

[Ding! Pidgeotto (Namikaze) is using Evolution Essence. Based on its final form's base stats, its highest stats are Special Attack and Speed. Stat boosting is in progress...]

[Ding! Evolution essence fusion complete. Pidgeotto (Namikaze): Special Attack +5, Speed ​​+5!]

........................

Soon, two system notifications rang in Mu Yun's mind.

The racial stats were successfully increased by ten points as desired.

However, the increased stats are not the highest Speed ​​and HP in Pidgeotto form, but rather Special Attack and Speed!

"The distribution of racial stats in the final form of the race..."

Recalling the system notification sound just now, a huge figure suddenly appeared in Mu Yun's mind.

With his broad wings, sleek physique, exceptional eyesight, and astonishing speed, he is like the overlord of the sky when he spreads his wings, easily stirring up a terrifying gale that can destroy a forest!

Mega Pidgeot, or Super Pidgeot.

A Pokémon that is better at physical attacks before evolving, but has extremely high special attack after evolving.

According to the system prompt, the criterion for determining evolution essence is not the Pokémon's current form, but rather the distribution of its base stats in its final form.

It only depends on the conditions for use and the current form of the spirit!

In this way, we won't encounter a situation where the base stats are useless after evolution, even though they were used before evolution!

In other words, Magikarp is still a very promising fish!

As expected of a product from the system, it's really great!
