Chapter 294 A Pokémon with Broken Ears? Evolving Makes It Grow Ugly! Its Voice is Its Cannonball! Can It Evolve Again?
Ye Yinchuan looked at the Pokémon and couldn't quite place it for a moment.
However, once the Pokédex was activated, he knew what kind of Pokémon it was.
"Shh, all of you be quiet. If you disturb this Pokémon, your ears won't be able to take it."
Ye Yinchuan reminded his Pokémon.
Although this Pokémon's appearance is somewhat similar to that of electric mouse-type Pokémon.
However, knowing its evolutionary form would completely dispel such thoughts.
Speaking of evolution, it's all about growing ugly. Although this one may not be very popular, it definitely qualifies as one of them.
It's not that the current form is particularly cute; it's simply that, in most people's eyes, the evolved form is a bit too ugly!
Especially the second phase.
As for the final evolved form, you can vaguely see some of Xiao Shuai's features.
What nonsense is the host talking about?
This Pokémon looks harmless...
[Wait, isn't that Guniu Niu? The streamer wasn't wrong! Don't disturb it, or you'll ruin your ears!]
What does that mean? Is its cry really that exaggerated?
At this point, some viewers in the live chat had already identified the Pokémon.
After all, it's not a particularly rare Pokémon, but not many people keep it, for one simple reason: it ruins your ears.
Upon seeing the last comment, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but recall a famous saying from live streaming: "Is my mic really that good?"
"Listen, that's the sound of Guniu Niu."
Ye Yinchuan brought his phone close to Gu Niu Niu and could hear her talking to herself, a somewhat rambling sound—
"Gu Niu Niu~ Gu Niu Niu~"
[What an adorable voice! It sounds like a little baby's!]
[Wuhu, this old man has suddenly felt a girlish heart and wants to raise one!]
You guys really don't understand, don't be fooled by its current sound!
Ye Yinchuan put his phone away and began explaining to the audience:
"Don't be fooled by Gu Niu Niu's soft voice now. In reality, if it senses danger, it will bark and scream, and its voice can even exceed one hundred decibels, which is about the volume of a jet plane!"
Is it true or false?
Believe it or not, that's exactly what the streamer said.
"If you hear Gu Niu Niu's cries up close, it could cause problems with your ears, and even give you a headache all day... The worst part is that once Gu Niu Niu starts crying, she gets startled by her own cries and makes them even louder..."
[Okay, just listening to the streamer's description makes me feel like it's too noisy!]
[It must get tired of barking after a while, right?]
Seeing the naivety in the comments, Ye Yinchuan shook his head: "Look closely, there's a hole near Gu Niu Niu's ear, just below and slightly in front. That's Gu Niu Niu's vent, so even when it's yelling, it can keep inhaling air and won't suffocate from the noise!"
[This is insane! This design is practically made for screaming!]
[Guniu is really good at sound-based moves!]
[Run, streamer! If it starts barking, it'll be too late!]
[No, streamer, try scaring it! I want to hear it!]
Looking at the comments, Ye Yinchuan smiled and shook his head. He wouldn't go looking for trouble and scare wild Pokémon.
Besides, once Gu Niu Niu starts barking, she'll scare herself, which isn't good, is it?
Just to satisfy their own and the audience's curiosity?
Just as Ye Yinchuan was about to leave, he circled around Gu Niu Niu.
The little goose suddenly turned its head, spotted their group, and after a brief silence and stare, let out a sharp, piercing cry.
Fortunately, Ye Yinchuan reacted quickly and covered his ears immediately.
But his Pokémon weren't so quick to react, and one by one they were hit by the piercing sound, which gave them splitting headaches!
What level is this Gu Niu Niu? Is she that strong?
[It can only be said that sound-based attacks are very unique and difficult to defend against to some extent, right?]
Whoosh!
Accompanied by the sound of flowing water, the energy of water-type Pokémon surrounded Ye Yinchuan and his Pokémon, forming a water wall that absorbed some of the power of the sound.
"roar!"
Snorlax also roared, its voice clashing with Gummy's.
Hot Cat then conjured a fireball in its mouth, intending to kill Gu Niu Niu directly.
Clearly, Gugu's sudden shouting caught the Pokémon off guard, but that was all.
Whether it's resistance or retaliation, it can be handled with ease.
"Sang Biao, stop!"
Ye Yinchuan called out to Yanre Miao, saying that if he unleashed one of its fireballs, Gu Niu Niu would be badly injured, if not killed. He didn't want to see blood, because there was a better way to resolve the situation.
"Soul-Stealing Eyes, can you press down its ears and cover them up?"
Ye Yinchuan planned to hand over the task to his new partner.
"Heh!"
The Soul-Stealing Eye slapped its head with both hands, and its long, antenna-like ears retracted into its head. Its body gradually sank down and merged into its own shadow.
"Shadow Sneak Attack!"
The same move will have different effects when performed by Feathered Owl and Soul-Hook Eye.
Sableye, a Ghost-type Dark Pokémon, possesses abilities similar to Gengar, including the ability to transform into a ghost and disappear into darkness and shadows!
However, in theory, Gengar can hide in its shadow at any time.
The Soul-Stealing Eye can only temporarily achieve this effect when using the "Shadow Sneak Attack" move...
This ability was developed by Ye Yinchuan when he used the [Shadow of the Overlord] to torture the Soul-Hooking Eye!
In short, the shadow beneath Soul-Hook's feet quickly lengthened, approached, and circled behind Gu Niu Niu. At the same time, Soul-Hook also transformed into a ghost, disappearing into the shadow. It then reappeared behind Gu Niu Niu, pressing down on her ears and covering the two holes below...
In this way, Gu Niu Niu can no longer breathe while shouting.
Therefore, its cries did not last long before it became listless.
After Gu Niu Niu stopped barking, it became listless and limp.
[Wow, amazing streamer! One move to defeat the enemy! Without firing a single shot!]
[Is this even possible? Is this Guniu's weakness?]
"As mentioned before, Gu Niu Niu is able to keep shouting because of the holes in front of her ears, which allow her to breathe continuously... So we do the opposite: by covering her ears, we can stop her from shouting."
As he spoke, Ye Yinchuan paused slightly.
"Actually, I have another idea, which is essentially the same: if there is a Ground or Water type Pokémon, you can use mud or water to block its air vents. However, this risks suffocating or choking it."
While we are in the wild, and although we may be attacked by wild Pokémon at any time, as explorers, we must remain friendly towards them and avoid fighting unless absolutely necessary.
[I learned something new!]
"Of course, our own safety is the top priority. If there are no better alternatives, or if we lack confidence in our own capabilities, we shouldn't be overconfident."
At this point, Ye Yinchuan suddenly remembered a sentence:
"Ten years have passed, and we are separated by life and death. I try not to think of you, but I cannot forget you. A thousand miles away, your lonely grave offers no solace..."
Some might say, isn't this Su Shi's poem reminiscing about his wife?
But for Ye Yinchuan, the first time he came into contact with this poem was through a martial arts role-playing game, where a few lines were displayed after his character died...
The phrase "不思量，自忘" in the original text means "trying not to think about it, yet ultimately finding it hard to forget"...
In the game, combined with the design that only appears when you die, Ye Yinchuan's impression at the time became, "He didn't understand his own limitations, so naturally he'll never forget it..."
It means that overestimating one's own strength led to death, and it was too late for regrets!
"Violent!"
Just as Ye Yinchuan was thinking about how to settle the Gu Niu Niu, a loud bang came. Not far away, a sound wave, in the form of a visible shockwave, bombarded towards them. The sound was piercing and the momentum was astonishing.
The source of that sound wave was none other than a Pokémon from behind—
Roar Bomb!
The evolved form of Gu Niu Niu!
[What the heck is this? It can attack with sound too?]
[This is how Gu Niu Niu evolves!]
[Woqu, yet another Pokémon that's grown up to be ugly?]
It's no wonder the comments were negative; the appearance of the Roaring Bomb was indeed hard to accept.
Its skin is bluish-purple, like a goblin or Shrek.
Its head and body are connected, making it look short and stocky, and its limbs are also relatively short.
It has two speaker-like ears on its head, which from a distance also look a bit like two monster's big eyes.
The roaring bomb has large whites in its eyes and tiny pupils, giving it an impression of being rather unintelligent, even a bit sleazy.
And there's a flat pig nose.
An exaggeratedly large mouth, thick yellow lips, and four rough, large teeth...
Even the toes on his feet are shaped like molars, with only two toes...
In short, he gives the impression of not being very smart!
But we must not underestimate it because of this. For example, the attack it launched against Ye Yinchuan at this moment was its unique skill...
The latest novel is first published here!
The Roaring Bomb can rapidly inhale a large amount of air, compress it using its well-developed abdomen, and then expel it, creating a powerful shockwave...
Its round ears also function as speakers, amplifying the power of sound waves.
Therefore, all sound-based moves of the Roar Bomb can be enhanced and attacked in the form of attack waves, even blowing, bouncing, or blasting enemies away!
Just like its name suggests, the Roaring Bomb—
Sound is its cannonball!
In addition, the Roar Bomb can also generate noise by stomping on the ground. If fired from above and below at the same time, the sound waves will fly around and keep the enemy busy!
Many Pokémon can use sound-based moves.
Even Ye Yinchuan's Snorlax can emit snoring and piercing sounds to attack enemies.
However, Pokémon that are so naturally gifted in sound attacks, like Roaring Bomb, are relatively rare!
"Perfect timing!"
Seeing this powerful roar bomb appear and attack him.
Ye Yinchuan was not alarmed; instead, he smiled.
This Roar Bomb is not only close to level 30, but it also has special features, namely its special characteristics!
A worthy opponent like this is perfect for honing your Pokémon's skills!
"Go, Cocodora!"
Ye Yinchuan would definitely send Coco Dora to fight against this Roaring Bomb.
The reason is simple: Cocodora is about to evolve.
Such real-world combat can stimulate its evolutionary efficiency and even enhance the intensity of evolution!
"Awoo!"
Cocodora let out a roar.
This roar was accompanied by the release of steel-based energy, producing the sound of metal rubbing against each other, and also forming a shockwave that blasted towards the opponent.
Cocodora has now reached level 32 and has mastered a new move called "Metal Sound".
In the game, this move only significantly reduces the target's special defense.
In reality, sound itself is a form of attack. Combined with the energy of steel, it can create shockwaves that attack opponents and severely disrupt their mental and physical well-being.
This can also be considered a manifestation of the reduced special defense!
Buzz—Bang!
The sound waves from both sides collided, and the sonic impact of the Roar Bomb spread outwards, causing Ye Yinchuan and his Pokémon to feel a piercing sensation.
Ye Yinchuan knew very well that Cocodora's "metallic sound" wouldn't have a similar effect on the Roaring Bomb...
The reason is simple: Roar Bomb's ability is "Soundproof," which can block out sound and reduce the impact of other Pokémon's sound-based attacks...
Even without this feature, the Roar Bomb is a double-edged sword, as you won't hear any sound for a while after it roars.
This gives it considerable resistance to enemy sonic attacks.
However, this also makes it difficult for it to detect and defend against enemy attacks!
"Go! CocoDora! Get close and defeat her in one strike!"
Ye Yinchuan roared and gave orders to Coco Duola.
In such a brief lull in the fighting, he wouldn't have time to waste words, so every syllable was compressed to its shortest length.
In many situations when facing the enemy, we will not openly command, as that would easily expose our intentions, and sometimes it would be superfluous...
But Ye Yinchuan knew very well that this Roar Bomb was currently deaf, and that was taking advantage of its inability to hear!
"Hardened!"
"Body Lightening"!
"Iron Head!"
"Impact!"
Cocodora's speed far exceeded Roar Bomb's expectations.
In addition, it cannot hear, let alone detect Coco Dora's high-speed approach!
Bang!
Cocodora's head glowed, steel-type energy condensed, and it slammed headfirst into the waist of the Roaring Bomb, sending it flying!
The powerful impact caused the Roar Bomb to bounce twice on the ground with two loud thuds. Although it could still stand up, fear had already filled its eyes as it looked at Cocodora...
With such speed and power, how could you not be afraid when you're suddenly smashed into something and left completely disoriented?
The Roaring Bomb is terrified!
[That's fast, Acodora! Shouldn't this kind of Pokémon be quite heavy?]
[It should be the move "Body Lightening"! But isn't this move only available at a high level? The streamer's Cordora hasn't even evolved yet!]
[With such immense force and impact, how could the Roaring Bomb still manage to stand up after this?]
The audience was quite amazed by Coco Dora's performance.
Ye Yinchuan sensed that the Roaring Bomb's gaze kept falling on the Gu Niu Niu, and he knew what was going on:
"Roar Bomb, don't worry, we didn't harm this little girl. As for your conflict with us... your sudden attack caught us off guard, so it's reasonable for us to retaliate, isn't it?"
Ye Yinchuan tried to reason with the Roaring Bomb.
Meanwhile, let Milotic use Life Drops to heal the wounds on Roar Blast.
And make the Soul-Stealing Eyes raise both hands and move away from Gu Niu Niu...
"Violent..."
Roar Bomb sensed Ye Yinchuan's goodwill, but was also quite wary of the strength of his Pokémon, and its hostility was waning.
After all, we can't win a fight, and the other side has already given us a way out, so what can we do?
Although Roaring Bomb looks rather silly, as a high-level wild Pokémon, it is still quite intelligent and perceptive...
The key point is that this isn't the first time it has interacted with humans.
Instead of continuing its attack, the Roaring Bomb tentatively approached Gu Niu Niu, attempting to escape with her.
[So the roar bomb attack on the streamer was to protect the cubs—that makes sense now!]
[Uh...why does this feel like a creepy uncle is about to kidnap a cutie?]
Why didn't the streamer just let the Roaring Bomb take down Gu Niu Niu right from the start?
[Wait, are we watching a live stream? That bomb just came out and attacked, how can you blame the streamer? It's only because the streamer is good-natured...]
While the audience was discussing this, Ye Yinchuan's gaze was fixed on the Roar Bomb, and he saw that it was emitting a light of evolution!
"Indeed extraordinary."
Ye Yinchuan had anticipated this and sighed inwardly.
This Roar Bomb is only around level 30. Logically, it should need to reach at least level 40 to continue evolving.
It was this Roar Bomb's special characteristics that made up for this part, allowing it to evolve ahead of schedule!
[Host, what's going on?]
"It's about to evolve."
Ye Yinchuan was concise and to the point, offering no further explanation.
Because the audience will soon be able to witness the entire evolutionary process!
[What the heck? The Roaring Bomb can evolve again?]
[Wait, isn't this the final form?]
【Huh? Really?】
[The Roaring Bomb is actually quite powerful, but its base stats are supposedly too low... But if it could evolve, wouldn't it be incredibly strong!]
After glancing at the comments, Ye Yinchuan wasn't too surprised, and simply replied:
"The Roaring Bomb can evolve. And its evolved form is called... Boomboo!"
