“Huh? What kind of Pokémon is that? It looks so beautiful!”

“Yeah! That Pokémon is truly stunning!”

“It looks somewhat like a moth. Could it also be a Bug-type Pokémon?”

“No way? Aren't Bug-type Pokémon usually the least attractive? How did that suddenly reverse today?”

“Perhaps… it’s because it’s an Ice-type Pokémon, just like Snom? From what I can see, Ice-type Pokémon all seem to have pretty good looks.”

“Is that how it can be explained?”

“Why do you assume it’s an Ice-type Pokémon? What if it’s just a pure Bug-type Pokémon?”

“With its snow-white body, identical to Snom, it’s clearly an Ice-type Pokémon, okay?”

“By universal rationality, that is indeed the case.”

“Wait! Shouldn’t the color most representative of ice be ice-blue?”

“I’m not sure if that moth is an Ice-type Pokémon, but I think it looks a lot like Snom’s evolved form.”

“No way? Didn’t it just throw Snom down from the sky? Their relationship should be really bad, right? How could it be an evolved form?”

“Rather than throwing, wouldn’t it be more accurate to say it placed it? I specifically replayed it in reverse just now and found that the moth-like Pokémon first suddenly decelerated when it swooped down to less than a meter from the ground, and then it placed Snom down.”

“Exactly, I also feel that it wasn’t thrown, but placed. And don’t forget, there’s a thick layer of snow on the ground there. At that height, let alone a Pokémon, even a person wouldn’t get hurt from a fall, right?”

“Indeed, and Snom is originally a larva; it’s quite normal for it to evolve into a moth in the future.”

Not only Zhang Yu, but many Water Friends in the live stream also noticed the presence of Frosmoth and were attracted by its beauty.

What interested them the most now was undoubtedly its relationship with Snom.

“You guessed correctly, this Pokémon is indeed the evolved form of Snom, and in terms of type, it is an Ice-type and Bug-type Pokémon, just like Snom.”

After noticing the bullet comments in the live stream, Zhang Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Then he continued to explain.

“It is called Frosmoth, a Pokémon that likes clean meltwater.”

“As Snom’s evolved form, its beauty is definitely among the top tier of Bug-type Pokémon. Many of you should be very interested.”

“However, it’s not just a pretty face. Frosmoth’s wings are the coldest part of its body, with temperatures that can even reach minus 180 degrees!”

“I don’t need to say how terrifying this temperature is, do I?”

“So, you absolutely must not think that Frosmoth is easy to bully; something could really happen.”

“Moreover, it’s worth mentioning that Snom evolves directly into Frosmoth, unlike Bug-type Pokémon like Caterpie and Weedle, which require a second evolution to reach their final evolved form.”

“Therefore, whether considering its beauty or the ease of training, Snom and Frosmoth are both excellent Pokémon.”

Considering Frosmoth’s uniqueness, Zhang Yu specifically explained it when introducing it and encouraged more people to capture Snom.

The main reason he did this was to hope that other Trainers could grow quickly.

Furthermore, to improve strength as much as possible in a short period, evolution is undoubtedly the best choice.

Although Bug-type Pokémon generally grow very fast, Pokémon that can evolve into their final form quickly like Snom are very rare.

The reason for this is that Snom’s evolution conditions are extremely special; it only needs to be at night and have sufficient friendship.

Perhaps this can also be seen as a manifestation of Pokémon being subjective creatures?

As long as you put enough effort into it, it will reciprocate doubly and remain faithful until death!

Of course, most importantly, Frosmoth is indeed a very good choice. Its Special Attack, which is even higher than Charizard’s, makes it completely worth Trainers cultivating it as a main force, or even an ace.

“I knew it! It must be Snom’s evolved form!”

“Hahaha! I guessed right too! It really is an Ice-type Pokémon!”

“So, this is Snom’s final evolved form? Oh no, this is the feeling of being smitten!”

“To be honest, I am indeed quite smitten. I was already very interested in Snom, and I didn’t expect its evolved form to be so beautiful!”

“Frosmoth is not just beautiful; judging by Anchor’s description, its strength is also very impressive.”

“Temperatures approaching minus two hundred degrees… Tsk, it’s simply unbelievable that this could be a body temperature achievable by a creature?”

“So, Snom is very suitable to be captured as a first Pokémon?”

“Of course! After all, it has beauty, potential, and its numbers aren’t small, making it easy to encounter. It’s almost a perfect choice for a starter Pokémon, okay?”

“Exactly, the last point is especially important. Otherwise, no matter how good it is in other aspects, it’s useless if you can’t encounter it.”

“I’ve decided! I’m going now to capture Snom!”

“Upstairs, aren’t you buying Poké Balls?”

“Hehehehe~ I’ve already bought Poké Balls, so I don’t need to keep waiting in line there?”

“No way? You bought Poké Balls so quickly?”

“Are you kidding me! I went to line up at the Elf Center entrance the first moment I got the news yesterday, so how could I not be fast?”

“Holy moly! Someone actually went to line up immediately? Then you must be the first person to buy Poké Balls in your area, right?”

“Don’t even mention it. When I arrived at the Elf Center entrance yesterday, there were already three people there. After chatting, I found out they also rushed over at the first moment, and their homes are near the Elf Center!”

“No way? Are you guys that competitive over there? I only went to the Elf Center after Anchor finished his stream yesterday, and there were only twenty or thirty people in line.”

“You’re already very competitive, okay?”

“Exactly, can you guys stop being so competitive? When I went to the Elf Center this morning, I saw the massive crowd lined up in front, and my heart just sank halfway!”

“That’s your own fault. How could you only come to line up this morning? You’re clearly not proactive enough.”

The Water Friends, already attracted by Frosmoth’s beauty, were incredibly smitten after hearing Zhang Yu’s introduction.

Chapter 144: Snowflakes Becoming Pokémon! (Seeking Subscription)

Not only did Zhang Yu believe that Frosmoth and Snom were very suitable for them, but they also thought the same.

After all, Pokémon that combine high beauty, great potential, and ease of finding are truly rare.

Not to mention the men who aren't afraid of Bug-type Pokémon, even many women who claimed to be afraid of Bug-type Pokémon started to feel smitten at this moment.

“It seems that this Pokémon group, formed by Snom and Frosmoth, is truly massive.”

After seeing the first Frosmoth, Zhang Yu quickly saw the second, third, and even more Frosmoth. Coupled with the increasing number of Snom he had seen along the way, Zhang Yu also had some guesses about the size of this Pokémon group.

If they were other Bug-type Pokémon, it would be truly difficult to maintain such a large group, but Snom can do it because they are extremely special.

Don’t look at them being as weak as other Bug-type Pokémon when they haven’t grown up yet; the strength they display after evolution is truly formidable.

Their evolution, like Magikarp’s, is a true qualitative leap.

Or rather, they are essentially the Bug-type-type Magikarp?

Although Frosmoth is slightly inferior to Gyarados, their birth is also easier.

And most importantly, both Snom and Frosmoth are actually very easy to raise; one eats snow, and the other drinks meltwater, making them incredibly easy to survive.

“Is that a Pokémon?”

Just as Zhang Yu thought there were no other Pokémon in this area besides Snom and Frosmoth, his peripheral vision suddenly noticed that a snowflake in the sky seemed a bit off.

To confirm his guess, Zhang Yu immediately sped up and walked towards where that snowflake was.

“Indeed, that is a Pokémon!”

As he got closer, he became even more certain of his guess.

That “snowflake” that originally looked no different in size from a normal snowflake, as it gradually approached, also revealed its abnormality.

At the same time, it allowed Zhang Yu to clearly see its true appearance—it was a Pokémon composed of ice crystals, looking like a giant snowflake.

“There are so many Snom here! It makes me so smitten!”

“If I could go there too, would I also be able to encounter Snom?”

“If you find the right place, the probability is quite high.”

“You say it’s simple, but how is that so easy? The Unknown Land where Anchor is currently located has already been sealed off, and entry is not allowed at all!”

“Really? How come I don’t know?”

“It’s true. My cousin wanted to take a boat there yesterday, but he was stopped.”

“Even if we can’t go to that Unknown Land, aren’t other snowy places the same? We can just try a few more places.”

“Exactly! I’ve already found Snom here in my hometown. Just wait, I’ll be able to capture it very soon!”

“No way? Someone has already found one?”

“You competitive dogs are truly more outrageous than the last.”

“Huh? Look quickly, Anchor seems to have discovered a new Pokémon!”

“Where? Where? How come I don’t see it?”

“Not just you, I don’t see it either.”

“Don’t just look at the ground, look at the sky. Don’t you feel there’s something unusual in the sky?”
