Pokémon, but cultural invasion

While Dr. Oki's work has a huge impact, its lack of practical value has deterred other researchers and investors.

In an effort to explore new research directions, the financially powerful city of Saffron recruits researchers from various regions, hoping to develop a unique style that belongs to the Kanto region.

This has resulted in the research institute in Golden City having a little bit of everything, being good at a little bit of everything, but not being good at anything.

"All the researchers from Saffron City are here, and we have expertise in all aspects of Pokémon research."

A researcher named Banana led the way in the corridor, introducing the research directions of each area while observing the reactions of the museum's delegation.

Upon learning that Director Naz wanted to visit the research institute, the senior researchers held a meeting overnight.

For this solitary curator who rarely interfered in affairs, suddenly paying attention to the research findings of Goldenrod City was an unprecedented event.

After discussion, they assigned Banana Field, the researcher most skilled at reading people and communicating, as their guide.

Jiaotian, clutching the tour guide certificate he had obtained in his spare time after graduation, nervously welcomed the visiting group.

After the tour and introductions, Banana Field vaguely sensed something.

The person who held the power of discourse in the visiting group was not the museum owner, but the young people walking at the front.

He watched the deep sleep controlled experiment on dream-eating dreams with great interest and asked, "Are there any similar dream studies in Golden City?"

"Professor Makomo in the Unova region has extensive research on Pokémon dreams, but unfortunately we don't have any personnel from the Makomo Laboratory..."

Banana said uncertainly, "There is another person in the institute who studies dreams; he is Dr. Orange Dream from the Padia region."

"Oh?"

Quanshu became interested. There was a world of difference between a researcher and a PhD. He never expected that the Golden City Research Institute had a PhD.

He asked, "Are you also doing research on dream manipulation?"

"No, it's about researching how to make humans and Pokémon sleep more comfortably."

Banana said embarrassedly, "Because his research direction was not of much value, he was rejected by the major research institutes in Padia and finally settled in Golden City."

Having grown bored after following along, Kiju burst into laughter: "Very Parthian style, isn't it?"

Dr. Orange Dream... Izumi Tree doesn't have much information about this doctor in his memory, he only remembers that he was a lazy middle-aged man.

"Please take us there to have a look."

"Okay, his workstation is..."

Jiaotian dared not be negligent and began to search through the research institute's database.

...

In a deserted corner of a research lab, a slightly overweight man wearing a white lab coat and a sleep mask on his forehead was asleep.

"Dr. Orange Dream, wake up—"

Banana Field shook his shoulder.

"Okay, I'll pack up and leave after I finish this experiment."

Dr. Orange Dream, still half-asleep, removed a few data cables from her head, yawned, and said, "Even if you rush me, I won't leave before the end of this month."

"No, it's the tour group led by Director Naz who wants to see you."

Jiaotian lowered his voice, "Who cares about your layoffs?"

"A tour group?"

Once she regained some consciousness, Cheng Meng recognized Naz and stood up to greet her: "May I ask what brings you here?"

"Hello, I'm Quanshu. I'd like to know about your research areas."

Quanshu pointed to two green lines undulating up and down on the screen next to him and asked, "Dr. Chengmeng, were you just conducting an experiment? What are these two lines?"

"Well, it's alright to tell you."

Cheng Meng glanced at the electronic screen, lazily reclined in her chair, and explained, "This is because my wavelength matches that of the tree-pillow koala."

He turned his chair, revealing a blue Pokémon fast asleep against the wall, hugging a wooden stake.

"You might not understand the concept of wavelength, but it's a connection that exists between trainers and Pokémon."

"Dr. Blatano of the Kalos region discovered a unique wave between Pokémon that evolve using Key Stones and Mega Stones and their trainers."

"Using specific instruments, it can be observed that the trainer and the Pokémon's waves overlap, and the overlap of the two waves disappears after Mega Evolution."

Chengmeng gave an analogy: "If you really want to put it in perspective, this kind of wave is what trainers call a bond."

Mega Evolution has always been a point of particular interest for trainers in other regions. Qishu asked in surprise, "Then, Professor, your wave and the Komaru overlapped just now. Doesn't that mean you can Mega Evolve?"

"Mega evolution is impossible without a Key Stone and a Mega Stone. I heard there was a special case in the Kalos region, but that's not included in the statistics."

Cheng Meng said, "What you just saw was a special case. I discovered that if a trainer and a Pokémon have the same dream while they are sleeping, their wavelengths will overlap."

"Having the same dream?"

Izumi-ki found it incredible.

This is not an industry secret, Cheng Meng said: "There are many methods, mine is relatively simple: Dream Eater eats the dreams of humans and elves, and then the Dream Smoke it spits out is specially made and evenly distributed to them, so they can dream together online."

"That's impressive, so what?"

The strange tree was greatly impressed and hurriedly asked more questions.

"And then? That's it."

Cheng Meng began tidying up the files on her desk and in her drawers, saying, "The wavelengths match, that's all, it has no practical value."

"In the end, super evolution is something that urgently needs to be studied and deciphered. It's really stupid of me to spend years researching this thing."

The large-scale recruitment of researchers in Golden City is not intended for them to slack off and die; those who fail to produce results will be dismissed.

"Does Dr. Chengmeng have any plans to continue this type of research?"

Quanshu suddenly spoke.

"After all, it's my hard work... but what's the use of thinking about it?"

Cheng Meng sighed. After all, he was a PhD and wanted to achieve results in his research.

Quanshu smiled and said, "Since the doctor is interested in continuing his research, why not come to my research institute to continue your studies?"

"May I ask which research institute you are a sponsor of?"

Cheng Meng was confused; he didn't recall any such person being from the well-known research institute.

"Tingxiang Research Institute, I am very interested in your research direction, Dr. Tingxiang. Funding and equipment are not a problem."

Quanshu vaguely felt that his research direction could help him figure out what the bond between humans and elves really was.

An unknown small research institute... Cheng Meng smiled indifferently. For someone who was going to be leaving at the end of the month, he had no choice.

"I would be most grateful if Mr. Quanshu would be willing to fund my research."

Quan Shudao said, "Your research direction remains unchanged, but you need to make some minor adjustments in terms of technology transfer."

Chapter Ninety-Three: The Method of Emotional Impact

They created a portable device to detect the bond between humans and Pokémon.

After Izumi left, Dr. Orange Dream pondered his request and realized that shrinking it to about the size of a backpack was not difficult.

The Tingxiang Research Institute is under construction and is expected to be completed by the end of the month, at which time he will move out of the Golden Yellow Research Institute.

Orange Dream wasn't the only one invited by Quanshu to this visit.

Because of ample funding, Quanshu tried to poach researchers for any research that interested him, but unfortunately most researchers were unwilling to leave the stable Golden Yellow Research Institute.

Forced relationships are never sweet, so Izumi gave up the idea of ​​using the gym leader's power.

...

Leave the Golden Institute.

"Izumi, do you think Mega Evolution is stronger or Crystallization is stronger?"

After learning about Dr. Chengmeng's research, Qishu began to ponder foolish questions.

Quanshu glanced at her. What kind of roadside is Taijing? Does she even deserve to try and scam Mega?

He said, "Each has its advantages. Crystallization can avoid weaknesses, does not require specific items, and can be used by all Pokémon."

"Mega evolution requires a cool key stone to be worn, and losing it is a hassle."

Qishu poked his chin with his fingertip. What's the downside of a cool keystone?

Sure enough, people from other regions thought that the crystal-like thing was inferior to the other two, and that wearing a crystal on one's head was too stupid.

Over the next few days, Izumi spent his days running between the tokusatsu stadium and a street in Kumiko City, where the new film had been selected.

I coded for a while in the evening and, together with Polygon, created the finished product of Skiing Adventure.

late at night.

"Braised Electric Frog: Gurusha agreed to film the video, so here's my reward!"

"Thoughts flow like a spring: Aren't you right next door? Why did you send a message?"

"Fried Electric Frog: Too lazy to walk, get me a bottle of soda, grape flavor."

"Braised Electric Frog: Thank you very much."

Quanshu sent the game to the newly added Gluxia Navigator account.

"Grusa: Hello, Gym Leader Qishu has already explained the details to me. Is there anything I should be aware of in this game?"

"Thoughts flowing like a spring: No, if I had to say something, I'd suggest playing for high scores and recording your true reactions."

"Gurusha: Understood. I will send you the video before noon tomorrow."

He opened Tingxiang's account on Pikachu.

A week has passed since the release of Ultraman Tiga, and the pre-release hype is now complete.

The trailer for this young child is filled with positive reviews from parents, who say it's very effective at keeping their kids quiet and even hope for a second episode.

More mature viewers were left with questions.

"After the Roaring Boss was defeated, the Milion inside it escaped. Could there really be a sequel?"

"The two statues appear to be Solgaleo and Lunala, and the third is a crossbat (fog)."

"Am I the only one concerned about the wakizashi's tragic past? Although it was only mentioned briefly, wasn't it really a bit pitiful?"

"I've noticed something: there aren't any regular Pokémon in the Tiga trailer. It's really unsettling."

"The transition from movie to TV series is quite a big one, Tingxiang has to be careful not to crash or burn."

“I thought the same way you did before we started making the movie in Tingxiang, but now I can only say that anything is possible.”

Even today, Tingxiang itself is a topic of discussion.

As the first TV series in the Tingxiang region, Ultraman Tiga carried too many expectations and also faced countless doubts.

After the news was released, major television stations sent messages, and some even sent personal representatives to visit the company.

The success of Crazy Elf City revived many small cinemas, much to the envy of television stations.

They will have to wait at least three more months before they can receive the rights to the film in sync with the online platforms.

As soon as news of Ultraman Tiga broke, major television stations flocked to it, afraid of falling behind.

Given the good progress of filming, Izumi and the TV station staff entered into a lengthy business negotiation phase.

Usually, the other party talks a lot of eloquently, and Quanshu only replies with a couple of symbolic words, which makes them so anxious that they scramble to the ground in frustration.

Izumi will not sign the contract with the TV station until at least half of the filming is completed.

"Kacha kacha~"

In the quiet of the night, strange noises came from the hall on the second floor of the villa.

Quanshu pricked up his ears, called to the electric frog, and tiptoed out of the room.

Under the nightlight, Naz, dressed in pajamas, was in the kitchen, holding her hands and munching on something.
