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

[Holy crap? This is really a newbie NPC, not some elite enemy??]

[Even if it's an attribute restraint, and the level is one level higher... these two moves can kill it instantly. Isn't that a bit too exaggerated?]

[Brother, you said you wanted to spar with me. I thought you were just trying to gain experience, but I didn't expect you to really kill me! !]

[No wonder the streamer had to choose a Pokémon first. It turns out they were waiting for this! Deliberately choosing a Pokémon with a counter attribute is pretty shameless, isn't it?]

[Hurry up and call your invincible Garchomp to come up with a solution, Sister Nana!]

"Hey, man, where's my over a thousand bucks? Why is there a money grabber in this Pokémon battle? Is Team Rocket coming?"

As the barrage of comments flew all over the sky, Sirona had already come back to her senses from her trance.

Now she seemed to understand why the introduction mentioned that this game was extremely difficult.

The core of all the other games I have played before, even the PVE mode of Battle Road, is only one, and that is "fun".

The player's level can easily suppress those NPCs, especially in the early stage. As the game progresses to the middle and late stages, the strength of NPCs will slowly increase, but they can always be suppressed and solved by the player.

But the NPCs in this game clearly start to "compete fairly" with you from the beginning of the Novice Village!

No, it's even "unfair competition". It's both restrained and at a higher level. This is simply unfair to the players!

Moreover, if a player spends too long thinking during a turn, the player's turn will be skipped directly!

These situations can only be described with one word: "hardcore".

But faced with the situation before her, Shirona not only did not think it was wrong, but it was as if something was ignited in her heart, and her interest increased sharply.

As a champion, she has gone through countless trials and tribulations and knows clearly that only challenges and difficulties can enable people to grow fastest.

If everything goes smoothly, neither the trainer nor the Pokémon will be able to unleash their true power even if they eventually reach a higher level of strength!

At her current level of strength, there are very few difficulties that can stop her, but this game has given her another opportunity!

Exhaling lightly, Shirona quickly adjusted her state and made a decision.

——Since the NPC’s level is one level higher than mine, I will go to the bushes next to me to upgrade the level of the wood gecko and see if I can learn some new skills.

When facing a powerful opponent that you cannot defeat, the best way is to become stronger before going after him!

With this thought in mind, Sirona controlled her character to walk out of the Pokémon Center and began searching for wild Pokémon in the nearby grass to fight.

Rattata, Coyote, Pidgeot, and Thorntail

All the Pokémon that might spawn in the nearby bushes were beaten by Bimbisara.

Ten minutes later, when a coyote fell, the level of the wood gecko finally reached level 12!

A prompt also popped up.

[Your current Pokémon level has reached the upper limit of this stage: 12. You need to reach the next city before you can further improve.]

At this moment, the comments also started to discuss.

[Is there still a level limit? 】

I think it makes sense. Otherwise, if you live in the Novice Village and don't go out, and then reach level 50 or 60, you'll just become the Novice Village Demon King and kill people all the way. That would be boring.

【+1】

[Now that I'm level 12, I should have no problem defeating that level 9 Fire Chicken, right?]

"I think it should be OK. With a three-level difference, it should be able to take at least four flames, right? There's a lot of room for maneuver."

[Indeed, if I can lose, I'll just eat it!]

At the same time, Sirona had gone to the Pokémon Center to restore the condition of the Gecko, and returned to the grass at the top of the road and chose to talk to her rival.

The black-haired boy was stunned for a moment, then smiled:

[Huh? You seem to have made some progress.]

[But I'm not a pushover either, I definitely won't fall behind! ]

[Now that our eyes have met, let's fight! ]

At this moment, Sirona looked at the screen seriously and solemnly.

Now the level of the Wood Gecko has been upgraded to level 12, and it has also learned two new skills: "Super Absorption" and "See Through".

This time, I will definitely win!

At this moment, the exciting battle music sounded again, and a prompt popped up:

[Strong rival: Black-haired boy, come and challenge! ]

He threw the Poké Ball in his hand, a white light flashed, and it was still the Fire Chick that appeared!

Everything seems to be exactly the same as before.

But there is one thing that seems different from before.

That's the number in the Turkey Chicken Level box—

Level 13! !

Sirona: ?????

Live broadcast room audience: ????? ????

No buddy, why are you leveling up when other players are leveling up?

Are you serious??

Chapter 5: Stuck and lingering thoughts

With the level suppressed again, the outcome of this battle was naturally no surprise.

——Boshigan was directly defeated by two flames from Chickadee.

Even because the levels of both Pokémon were increased, this time, Charmeleon's flame directly knocked off 2/3 of Broomstick's health, which was even more exaggerated than the last time.

Watching the computer screen go black again, the character reappeared in the Pokémon Center, and the money symbol in the upper right corner directly turned into -1000.

In Shirona's live broadcast room, the audience began to scroll through the screen frantically again.

[Oh shit, now I know what that guy just said. He definitely won't fall behind. So he's always one level higher than the other players.]

[This game developer is such a jerk! Why did they let NPCs level up along with the players? ? ]

[Hahahaha, the money has become negative 1,000. This time the anchor is bankrupt.]

,.

When the barrage of comments refreshed, Shirona didn't notice it at all.

At this moment, she has fallen into a state of serious thinking

Obviously, the game makers have predicted the players' possible responses and directly blocked the path to passing the level through upgrading.

In this case, we can only use other methods to deal with this opponent!

The biggest problem that Wood Gecko faces against Fire Chick is its attribute disadvantage.

The huge damage caused by the double restraint is something that the wood gecko's body is completely unable to withstand.

And solve the disadvantage of attribute restraint

Thinking of this, Sirona's eyes suddenly lit up.

Wait a minute, didn’t Professor Odamaki give me 5 Poké Balls when I left?

Wouldn't it be possible to solve the problem if I just used these Poké Balls to catch a Pokémon that could counter Charmeleon in the nearby grass?

But having said that, Pokémon obviously cannot be captured casually.

During the game just now, she had checked the backpack interface and got some tips on the rules.

Not only will there be a cap on a player's level in each region, there will also be a cap on the number of Pokémon they can possess at the same time.

For example, right now, the upper limit of your Pokémon is "2".

The highest Pokémon limit in the entire game can only reach "15".

And once you get a Pokémon, there is no way to release it. You must carry it with you until you complete the game.

For a game, such requirements are indeed a bit too hardcore.

However, such rules made Sirona feel a sense of agreement in her heart.

Even in the game, these Pokémon are partners who fight alongside them, rather than data that can be discarded after use!

Having said that, in such a situation, she must plan the position of every Pokémon in her team.

It is necessary to ensure that the next Pokémon captured can play an important role in the subsequent adventure, and can also successfully help her pass the test of the powerful enemy in front of her!

Shirona began to quickly recall the Pokémon she had encountered along the way...

But at this moment, a sudden ring interrupted her thoughts.

——It was her cell phone that rang next to the computer desk.

She picked up the phone, glanced at the contact name on the screen, and immediately answered the call.

A voice came from the phone that only she could hear:

"Ms. Sirona, I'm sorry. I know you're on vacation, but the Pokémon in the spirit world have just started to stir again for some reason. We suspect a new spirit tide is about to appear. The spirit world entrance in Baidai City needs your support!"

Hearing this, Sirona's expression changed slightly and she nodded.

"Okay, got it. I'll be right there."

Then, she turned around and spoke apologetically to the audience in the live broadcast room:

"Sorry everyone, I have some things to take care of, so today's live broadcast will end here."

"But I will come back as soon as I have time to continue the broadcast. Please be patient and wait."

After saying that, she directly cut off the signal from the live broadcast room.

Barrages of comments appeared above the black screen.

[No——Wife!!]

【Aaaaaah, I'm really enjoying this!!】
