Chapter 442 So Who Threw the Jade-Throwing Monkey Back to the Modern Era?
After seeing the old man's method of taming elves, Chris was thoughtful.
In fact, techniques like silent approach and food temptation are relatively easy to understand, but your backstab... is just a ball that hits it while it is eating!
Isn't the reason for not entering the battle because the ball has already caused damage?
Akinren was sober: "You have a high chance of taming Rattata if you just throw the ball, this doesn't prove anything."
Seeing that the three people can keep up with his teaching, Zhou You nodded and continued to start the second lesson.
"This is just a starting move, that's all. Let me look... do you see the Geodude over there?"
The north of Route 29 is adjacent to Route 46, and occasionally Geodude will roll down the cliff like this.
Zhou You slowly approached Geodude and threw a flying feather ball!
The flying feather ball that made a signature sound through the air almost crossed a distance of more than ten meters and hit Geodude.
However, Geodude has always been energetic, and after a few seconds, he opened the flying feather ball and came out.
At this moment, Zhou You, who had predicted where it would land, threw another Feather Ball at it, and before the Geodude who had escaped from the ball could even react, it was collected in the ball again.
At this point, Zhou You, who had rolled a few times after throwing the ball, came behind Geodude.
And took out the Heavy Ball from his backpack.
The energetic Geodude escaped again, and Zhou You skillfully used the Heavy Ball to backstab him.
With a muffled sound, the Geodude who was collected in the Heavy Ball this time could not break free.
"Do you understand?"
Zhou You asked with a mysterious look on his face.
A Jin was still clear-headed: "Just keep hitting it until it can't break free?"
Chris seemed to have opened the door to a new world: "I know! The reaction speed of the Pokémon in the ball is limited. If you throw the ball again when they just come out and haven't reacted yet, you can collect them again!"
Not only that, this can also be used in conjunction with the previous technique. Start with the fast Feather Ball, and then use the Heavy Ball with a high judgment to backstab the Pokémon after it comes out!
Just as Chris, who had suddenly realized something, began to think divergently, Xiao Huang, with a complicated expression, raised his hand and asked: "San San, why do you want to roll while running?"
"I think this will be faster, and it is easier to avoid the attacks of the Pokémon." Zhou You said seriously, "Next is the last trick. What if the target Pokémon has a lot of physical strength and it is difficult to capture it by throwing the ball directly?"
A Jin: It's just that the damage of throwing the ball is not enough, and the battle is over.
"Although our goal is to avoid meaningless fighting, we have to fight at this time, but there are also some rules for throwing the Poké Ball to start the battle. The more unexpected the ball is, the easier it is to dominate the battle."
"I understand, senior, do you mean backstab and throw the ball?" Chris has gradually caught up with Zhou You's thinking.
Throw the Poké Ball in the way of backstab, and use a "high five surprise attack" / "head-on attack" on the wild Pokémon before the battle. The heavier the Poké Ball, the better the effect.
The premise is to be able to accurately grab the target's back and hit it successfully. It sounds easy but it is extremely difficult. If you miss, it will make your team start at a disadvantage. It is a relatively dangerous upper-level skill.
※ At least Tie Anlian, who can throw the ball crooked, can't do it.
"This trick is somewhat useful." This time it was Ajin's turn to gain some insights.
"But elves are emotional beings after all. We are assistants sent by the doctor, not elf hunters. In most cases, we just need to release them after collecting data, so there is no need to use such a method that is easy to cause conflicts."
As he spoke, Zhou You released Rattata and Geodude, and in the latter's anger of wanting to hit people, he discharged two golden pear fruits and gave them to the other party.
"I'm sorry, I just wanted to treat you to a meal."
The two elves who suffered an unexpected disaster stared at Zhou You suspiciously for a while, and then smelled the tree fruit in front of them, and then let it go and strung it on their front teeth, holding it in their hands and swaying away.
After all, strictly speaking, they were only disturbed for a while, and did not suffer any actual attacks or threats.
"Just like what we did just now, the most reliable and safe way is to exchange assistance through negotiation and gifts. Personally, I strongly recommend collecting the illustrated books in a peaceful way."
Xiao Huang agrees with this view.
No need to fight, no need to hurt Pokémon, and release them immediately after getting the data so as not to separate them from their families and tribes. If all trainers do this, she won't be too resistant.
One by one, children smile and command kind and ignorant creatures to fight and hurt each other unnecessarily. In serious cases, it may lead to serious injuries and near death... It is hard not to cast a psychological shadow on the young girl.
"Speaking of which, do you want to practice the skills I just taught you?"
Looking at Chris who was eager to try and Ajin who was slightly interested, Zhou You suggested with interest: "Collect the illustrated book of Route 29 within the specified time, and then compare whose illustrated book is more detailed."
"What's the benefit of this competition? And we only have 5 Poké Balls given by the doctor when we just set out."
After all, Ajin has never had much pocket money because of his daily troubles, and he has basically spent it all. The number of Poké Balls he personally owns is completely inferior to Chris.
Zhou You was naturally prepared: "There are 50 Poké Balls of various types in these three bags. You can use them as you like. The time limit is 11 o'clock noon. I will wait for you at the Jihua City Pokémon Center."
"As for the rewards, let me think about it...a limited edition special elf ball, a commemorative ptcg card, a secret fishing spot for catching distant sea fish, a golden phoenix pear fruit, a one-time crystalline prop, a jar of exclusive candy, sparkle Amulets, energy cubes made by myself, Graxitia flowers..."
Before he could finish speaking, the three new trainers left the scene each dragging a large bag of Poké Balls, racing against time for fear of falling behind.
What surprised Zhou You the most was that even Xiao Huang took the initiative to join the game.
Maybe it wouldn't be so annoying for her to peacefully obtain the data through negotiation and then release her immediately.
"Hey! I didn't say I would give it all to you!"
…
While traveling around to Jihua City to fish, and while the new trainers were collecting illustrations for the doctor, a mysterious red-haired figure was wandering near the research institute.
Through the window behind the research institute, he saw Dr. Kuangmu placing the illustrations and badges left by Zhou Yu on Xiaozhi on the test bench.
"That's the illustrated book...and the badge!"
The red-haired figure murmured to himself, if he had these things, he would be one step closer to becoming the most powerful trainer and seeking revenge!
He planned to steal these things.
As for the chosen chrysanthemum leaf...
Laughing to death! Who would choose Chrysanthemum Grass Leaf? The wild dogs on the roadside are better than it. As a carefully selected beginner Elf, it is even worse than the Shuttlecock Grass Leaf on the street!
There is no need to steal such useless things, just leave them to the runner-up of the Quartz Conference.
He, Xiaoyin, wants to become the champion of the Silver Conference!
