Pokémon: I just became a Gym Leader, and Cynthia proposed to me.

Chapter 277 Talent and Effort

Li Shuwen nodded without hesitation, "Yes, the scaled dragon is indeed amazing in terms of comprehension."

After all, Kommo-o learned Dragon Breath by eating, and learned Aura Sphere by watching Lucario use it once.

Didn't you see how envious the abandoned monkey was of this talent?

But to be honest, the Abandoned Monkey thinks the Scaled Armor Dragon has strong comprehension.

Doesn't the Scaled Armor Dragon find the Abandoned Monkey's anger abnormal?

Have the two of them considered the feelings of Onion Soldier and Poison Skull Frog?

Cong Youbing is actually alright; he always tries to be himself.

Cong Youbing's opponent is none other than himself.

Cong Youbing believes that all he needs to do today is be better than he was yesterday!

Poison Skull Frog...

Poison Skull Frog has a great ability to adjust his mindset.

After evolving, the Poison Skull Frog has been able to view the world with a calm and normal attitude.

Instead of envying others for their talent, it's better to strive to find your own strengths.

Enhance strengths and make up for weaknesses.

As long as you keep up with the strong, even if you're just a bottom-of-the-barrel student, you're still a bottom-of-the-barrel student among the strong.

Poison Skull Frogs are generally considered hardworking geniuses!

After all, there aren't many Pokémon like Toxtricita that can transcend low-level fun and endure the tedium and boredom of training.

The Scaled Dragon is better; the Abandoned Monkey relies on rage in combat and is naturally more inclined to passionate clashes.

Repeated training will only diminish the fighting spirit of the abandoned monkeys.

But the Poison Skull Frog is patient and can silently repeat the simple paw thrust thousands of times.

Within a single day!

Gallade's talent is beyond doubt.

As for the strong chicken that sparred with the trumpet-pecking bird, its first advantage is definitely its ability to eat!

Lizhuang chickens have a very strong digestive system.

Other Pokémon need to exercise to convert the food they eat into muscle and type energy.

The strong chicken doesn't need to eat it; it can increase its strength after eating it.

Of course, you'll absorb it faster through training.

The price is eating more.

Because of the arrival of the Lampshade Nightshade, the Mighty Chicken, which had stopped sparring with the Trumpeter Bird, went to the side and poured itself a full bowl of Pokémon food.

They started eating heartily.

Li Shuwen stepped forward, intending to treat the night-blooming cereus.

It was discovered that the body of the lampshade mushroom was spontaneously absorbing moonlight to heal its wounds.

"Cynthia, look!"

Cynthia was also surprised when she saw it. "To actually turn moonlight into a bodily instinct, this lampshade mushroom is even more amazing than I thought."

Moonlight, sunlight, photosynthesis—these recovery skills are all the same.

It requires the Pokémon to actively control it.

But any skill can be mastered as long as you are willing to invest enough effort in training.

They can all become instinctive, like the night-blooming cereus.

For example, dragon breath; some dragons need to take a deep breath and then exhale.

For some dragons, breathing is as simple as exhaling.

Li Shuwen narrowed his eyes slightly and used his waveguide power to explore the body of the lampshade mushroom.

"Cynda, the Lampshade-like Fungus has three abilities: glow, spores, and a raindrop. Can you guess which one it is?"

Cynthia pondered for a moment. First of all, the light from the lampshade mushroom wasn't particularly bright.

So it doesn't emit light.

Secondly, the scaled dragon and the lampshade mushroom had multiple physical contacts.

But the mushroom spores were only triggered once.

Moreover, it seems that the lampshade mushroom actively used mushroom spores.

Exclude spores.

Eliminate all the impossibilities, and what remains, even the most impossible thing, must be the truth!

Cynthia was somewhat surprised. "He has the Rain Disk ability?"

Li Shuwen nodded, took out a water bottle, and poured the river water he had collected onto the lampshade mushroom. "At first, I also thought that the lampshade mushroom had spore characteristics."

"But just now I used my Aura to scan Night Mushroom's body, trying to find the reason for his extraordinary talent."

The water poured onto the lampshade mushroom was completely absorbed by it.

With the addition of water, the wounds of the lampshade mushroom healed at a visible speed.

"So the reason why Amanita is so big is either because it is a Totem Pokémon unique to the Alola region, or because of its Rain Dish ability and Moonlight move."

The three conditions required for plant growth are water, light, and nutrients.

It's like there's a Bulbasaur living in the sewers.

It also grew to be larger than other Bulbasaur.

The Lampshade Night Mushroom is simply a gift!

This is not the town in the Johto region where the sunflower monsters are raised.

There was also a person in that small town who raised an exceptionally large sunflower monster.

But it was just an empty shell and couldn't be used for combat at all.

Purely ornamental plants.

And this lampshade mushroom only collapsed after taking so many hits from the scaled dragon.

His talent has already been proven.

Lampshade Mushroom woke up quickly; he wasn't interested in the elf food.

Although it has evolved to have a mouth, the Lampshade still prefers to obtain the nutrients it needs from the earth and moonlight.

He waved his hand in refusal and returned to the forest, feeling somewhat dejected.

Cynthia sighed, "It's a pity that Mushroom is already highly bound to the Alola region's environment, otherwise I would definitely have caught it."

Li Shuwen smiled and pointed to the twinkling fireflies in the forest ahead.

"If you can't catch a Breloom, you can catch a Snorlax and take it back to the Sinnoh region. Maybe you can raise an even stronger Breloom."

Cynthia's eyes lit up. "Let's go into the forest and take a look!"

Cynthia called Lucario, and Li Shuwen brought Gengar.

The two walked into the forest, and under the flashlight, the glowing Pokémon revealed their true forms.

Cute little mushrooms.

"These sleeping mushrooms are really good!"

Cynthia was overwhelmed by the choices and didn't know which one to pick.

"No rush, you can take your time choosing."

Cynthia wanted to get closer, but Li Shuwen quickly stopped her.

"But don't get any closer. Shroomish can use pollen to put Pokémon to sleep and then absorb their energy, and humans are no exception."

Compared to trees, Pokémon and humans possess far more abundant vital energy.

Under the flashlight, Sleepy Mushroom's body swayed and shook off a lot of powder.

Cynthia immediately stepped back to avoid getting her hands on the mushroom spores.

"Let's go back to sleep. I'll look up information about Sleep-shroom and Lamp-shroom at the local library later, and then decide whether I want to catch one."

On their way back, they saw the lampshade mushroom standing by a stream, its feet firmly planted in the soil.

The mushrooms on top absorb moonlight, and the feet absorb nutrients from the earth.

Meanwhile, their hands extend green energy bands, drawing water from the stream.

The body of the lampshade mushroom seemed to grow bigger little by little during this process.

Li Shuwen said, "Lampshade Night Mushroom, instead of continuing to grow bigger, I think you should increase your body's toughness, strength, defense, and recovery ability."

Being too big isn't all good, especially for types like Nightshade Mushroom that hardly rely on melee combat.

The lampshade mushroom seemed to be deep in thought, since this human's scaled dragon had defeated him.

Therefore, the suggestions given by humans are definitely better than the solutions they come up with themselves!

I've learned it!

The fact that Lampshade Night Mushroom has its current strength is not solely due to talent.

Shame spurred them to action, and they immediately began intensive training after losing to the Scaled Dragon.

This guy is definitely an elite!

When Li Shuwen returned, the Pokémon had already spontaneously paired up and started training.

Only the sniper tree owl, without fail, eats its fill and sleeps.

Li Shuwen couldn't help but shake his head. "Millerton, go, give him two electric shocks."
