Chapter 253 Exclusive Move: Arm-Shaped Weapon! The Difference Between Regular Slowbro and Galarian M
Chapter 253 Exclusive Move "Arm-Shell Weapon"! The Difference Between Regular Slowbro and Galarian Mode!
"Let me put it this way, Galarian Slowbro is quite dangerous. You've seen this Shellder in its hand; it's something like a pistol, or even a water cannon..."
If Galarian Slowbro wanted to, it could spray venom from its body. Besides the threat of the venom itself, it could also function like a high-pressure water gun, acting like a bullet, and even penetrating its target!
Looking at Galarian Slowbro, Ye Yinchuan began to explain.
[What? This Slowpoke isn't Slow anymore? I've heard that Slowpokes get even dumber after evolving into Slowbro!]
[Does Slowpoke think with its tail or its butt? It can't think when its tail is bitten, but it can still think when its hand is bitten?]
[It can actually fire venom? And high-pressure venom at that? That's incredible!]
The viewers in the live chat were all surprised.
Ye Yinchuan, however, responded methodically, offering a partial reply:
"The reason why ordinary Slowbros become increasingly dull is due to the stimulation of the Giant Tongue Shell's toxin. The toxin circulates continuously within the Slowbro's body, affecting its intelligence..."
However, there is one thing you should know: Slowbro is a Psychic-type Pokémon, similar to some Psyducks. When they are subjected to strong stimulation or pain, their psychic potential is activated, resulting in powerful combat abilities that are completely different from their usual selves.
However, this state doesn't last long; they'll quickly return to normal, and instantly forget what just happened.
[That's quite interesting. I've noticed that Pokémon with powerful psychic abilities are either exceptionally intelligent or incredibly dim-witted!]
Perhaps Psyduck and Slowpoke were once very intelligent Pokémon... only to suffer the backlash of their psychic powers?
Ye Yinchuan continued:
"The difference between Galar Slowbro and ordinary Slowbro is that, due to their frequent consumption of spicy food, the spicy substances accumulate in their bodies and become a kind of toxin. Under the stimulation of Shellder's toxin, Galar Slowbro becomes a Pokémon with both Poison and Psychic types..."
Therefore, Galarian Slowbro possesses a certain resistance to Shellder's toxicity, and naturally, it won't become dumber due to the toxicity; in fact, it might even be a bit smarter than before its evolution.
Ye Yinchuan thought of Galarian Slowbro's performance in the anime.
Ordinary Slowbros that want to eat coconuts from trees will only ram their heads against the trees and won't be able to knock them down, but Galarian Slowbros will spray their venom and accurately knock the coconuts down.
"Of course, intelligence is only relative. Galarian Slowbro is, after all, a type of Slowbro... Its tendency to daydream, its slow personality, and its sluggish movements won't change much..."
What I mean by its inherent danger is not just the giant tongue shell weapon it wields... but also the fact that the giant tongue shell sometimes unconsciously bites at it, causing Galarian Slowbro to feel unbearably itchy, which drives it mad, causing it to swing its arm and strike wildly...
Therefore, Galarian Slowbro must be specially monitored. If its condition is detected as abnormal, it should be kept away from immediately, or even isolated!
"Wait, this stupid thing can go berserk?"
I've heard that regular Slowbros can barely feel pain, but it seems Galarian Slowbros have much more acute senses!
[You missed the details, upstairs. Shellder was biting hard, while Galarian Slowbro just felt itchy... they should be about the same!]
[Alright, alright, raising a regular Slowbro is troublesome enough, but this Galarian Slowbro is even more troublesome!]
[Hmm, I think the regular Slowbro is cuter!]
"Actually, Galarian Slowbro has considerable potential for combat. When they encounter strong enemies and danger, the toxins in their bodies stimulate their entire nervous system, causing them to unleash astonishing speed and power, raising their giant tongue shells and spraying venom..."
The speed of this process is almost like that of a fast-drawing gun; even its eyes become sharp, able to lock onto the target accurately and quickly. At this moment, the venom it sprays is of extremely high pressure, capable of easily piercing through enemies with weak defenses!
[It has some imagery, but not much!]
It's hard to believe what a sharp look a Pokémon like Slowbro can have.
"Actually, Galarian Slowbro's characteristics are not much different from those of ordinary Slowbro; one focuses on psychic abilities, while the other focuses on venom attacks."
Incidentally, Galarian Slowbro also possesses psychic abilities, but the difficulty and potential for development may not be as high as those of ordinary Slowbro.
[Feels good, I like poison-type.]
"I almost forgot to mention, Galarian Slowbro's signature move is called 'Clamshell Weapon,' which is actually nothing special... it's just attacking with the large shells on its arms..."
However, this move has a great advantage: it works at both close and long range. At close range, you can simply swing the giant tongue shell and smash it. At long range, it's the venom spray I just mentioned.
Because of the toxins, any attack can poison the enemy... The powerful aspect of this move is that once Galarian Slowbro masters it, it can dominate the battlefield, boasting 90 power and inflicting poison...
Different attack methods can be used against different enemies, maximizing the effectiveness of the battle!
Ye Yinchuan savored the effect of Galarian Slowbro's unique move in the game.
In the game, besides poisoning, the effect is that it can automatically select the move that deals more damage between physical attacks and special attacks.
In reality, the distinction between physical attacks and special attacks is relatively blurred; instead, it becomes a difference between melee and ranged attacks... and it doesn't automatically choose the attack method with the highest damage; it requires Slowbro or the trainer's command!
Thinking about how this unique move looks in the game, Ye Yinchuan thought it was pretty cool...
If the Slowbro in this world can be raised to a certain strength and trained, it should be possible to replicate it!
If you're asking what form it takes, it's a surge of massive amounts of poisonous energy; at long range, it's like a cannon...
At close range, it slams hard into the ground, creating a ground eruption that knocks the enemy away!
"That's about it, family. Any questions?"
Ye Yinchuan's interaction with the audience can be seen as a proactive attempt to identify and address any shortcomings.
[What about its ability? Streamer, is Galarian Slowbro's ability exactly the same as a regular Slowbro?]
"Well, it might be the same, or it might be different. Generally, the abilities of ordinary Slowbro can be three kinds: Oblivious, Unruly, and Regenerator... But Galar Slowbro is less likely to have the Oblivious ability; it usually has the Quick Attack ability."
"Galarian Slowpoke, possessing the Quick Attack ability, is often adept at using poison to stimulate its nerves, making its attacks faster and allowing it to strike first in battle!"
After saying that, Ye Yinchuan took the opportunity to examine the Galarian Slowbro.
Aside from its high rank, its individual values are only above average for a C-rank. Its ability is Unfettered, which makes it less susceptible to mental attacks such as Confusion and Intimidate, which this Galarian Slowbro is immune to.
That's good.
Ye Yinchuan ended the call.
At the same time, it was also a gift from the person connected, or rather, from the tourist park.
There are three gold leaves, and one gold leaf is equivalent to three Master Balls, so the benefits are quite good!
[Gift: Message: Thank you, host! This is a gift our park director asked me to send! If we have any Pokémon-related questions about the park in the future, we would appreciate any guidance you could offer if you have the time!]
Seeing this sincere attitude, Ye Yinchuan nodded:
"Definitely, definitely. Cooperation is a win-win situation, it's only right."
As he spoke, Ye Yinchuan seemed to remember something and added:
"Actually, whether it's Slowpoke or Galar Slowpoke, besides Slowbro, there's another very special evolution form... The difference between them is like that between Poliwag and Poliswimmer."
[You're not a streamer, yet you so effortlessly delivered such explosive content?]
[Wait a minute? What evolutionary form? Streamer, you've gone too far! We're almost done streaming, and you're still saying this? If you don't explain yourself clearly today, don't even think about ending the stream!]
@DumbLiver:
[Please share, streamer! Bro! Our zoo director said that if there are any other evolutions of Slowpoke, please help us provide clues! Gifts are no problem! My promotion and raise depend on you!]
Seeing the excited reactions in the live chat, Ye Yinchuan sighed and smiled wryly.
Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!
"I really can't do anything with you guys, but let me make this clear first: I've only ever seen this evolutionary form in books... For the Slowpoke species, it's similar to Poliwag, but even rarer!"
"Once this kind of Pokémon grows up, it will basically become the king of its kind, that is, the dominant Pokémon."
That's incredibly awesome, streamer! Please elaborate!
[Hey bro, have a cigarette!]
So, what does Slowpoke's King Mode look like, and what is it called?
Ye Yinchuan didn't hide anything:
"Slowking, this evolved form is called Slowking. I know you're all curious about what it looks like and how it evolves... Since there aren't any real-world examples, I can only give you a general description..."
"Slowking is a type of Pokémon that needs to coexist with Shellder to evolve, but Shellder is located on its head. Although Slowking looks silly, it's actually very intelligent..."
The book says they are the wise men of the sea; you can ask Slowking any question, and Slowking will tell you the answer!
[Holy crap! Is this for real? This is incredible! Dazed King? Are you sure this name isn't made up?]
[It feels so absurd, it's hard to believe that Slowpoke has become so intelligent...]
I trust the streamer, but I don't trust that book. What if the author made it all up?
[Does that mean Shellder can evolve by biting someone's head? The method the streamer shared today can be used!]
Looking at the comments, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but laugh at the thought of what he was going to say:
"Yes, Slowking is very smart, with an IQ equivalent to that of the world's top scientists. Even if you don't understand what it's saying, it's the one who answers your question."
I laughed, this is hilarious.
"Isn't that just giving it away for free?"
"Well, also, everyone, please don't assume anything. As the king of his pack, Slowking isn't something just any Slowpoke can evolve into... It's probably not enough for Shellder to bite its head..."
But I read about a special mineral in a book called the King's Token. Its shape is naturally that of a crown, and it contains a special power that can give ordinary Pokémon the potential to become kings!
If any of you can get your hands on a King's Token, it might actually be able to evolve Slowpoke into Slowking... Of course, you can contact me; I'll definitely buy it.
[The King's Token, I remember the streamer mentioning it in one of his livestreams!]
[Haha, I remember, there was also a rich and beautiful girl who sent someone to look for it, right? She wanted her Poliwag to evolve into Poliwag King. I wonder if they found it yet?]
[The streamer is dreaming. If he really had a King's Certificate, he'd definitely auction it off and be set for life!]
"Alright, you can just get a general idea of Slowking. If anyone in the live stream sees him in the wild, remember to contact me so we can all see for ourselves. Just remember one thing: Slowking's Shellder is on his head, and there's a gem on top of it."
"Galarian Slowking would be quite different. Slowking is already rare, and this special Slowking is even rarer. In short, they are quite similar. If you see them, you should be able to recognize them. Just remember that Galarian Slowking has the characteristics of a Poison-type."
After finishing speaking, Ye Yinchuan continued with the subsequent video call.
Since there wasn't much time left, I just did some random connections. I just skimmed through the ordinary Pokémon, and when the time was up, I just shut down and went home!
"Hmm... You also have a Slowpoke? It looks really smart. You want me to assess whether it has the potential to become a King? Come on, let me see."
When Ye Yinchuan saw the Slowpoke on the live feed, he was dumbfounded.
Slowpokes typically have big eyes, but small pupils, which makes them look particularly silly.
But this Slowpoke has particularly large, watery eyes, like a beautiful girl... but it's still a Slowpoke after all; with its mouth open, its overall expression and appearance are still those of a goofy hippo...
Therefore, the sense of incongruity is particularly strong.
[Oh no, being single for so long, how could even a Slowpoke be handsome?]
[Is this Slowpoke wearing colored contact lenses? I can't see any King-level potential, but it's certainly quite pretty!]
Ye Yinchuan also provided his own appraisal results:
"Your Slowpoke is a mutation. Its eyesight is better than that of a regular Slowpoke, and its beauty is among the most stunning... Most male Slowpokes would be unable to walk past it."
But if you're talking about the potential to become a king, then you'll probably be disappointed.
Ye Yinchuan found the peculiar, dazed beast quite amusing.
@DumbLiver:
[This Slowpoke is pretty good, interested in making a move? Come to our park, you'll definitely get great treatment!]
The person connected also responded:
"Not selling, keeping it for myself, thank you!"
