140: Section 140

“That’s truly enviable. I don’t even have a Pikachu.”

“Sigh, if only I could capture a Pikachu, or even a Pichu. I just don’t know where I could find one.”

“Hahaha! How did you know I just caught a Pichu yesterday?”

“Get lost! Who asked you?”

“It’s said that the lifespan of a European Emperor is extremely short. Be careful, you might kick the bucket one day.”

“What enviable luck! Why don’t I have such good fortune?”

“Actually, if you just want to find a Pichu, it’s not difficult, because there are quite a few of these Pokémon. But whether you can capture it is another matter.”

“That’s right, I was lucky enough to discover a group of Pichu before, but they were too timid. It’s really hard to capture them.”

After seeing Mimikyu defeated by Pikachu and the battle ending, the Water Friends felt somewhat unsatisfied.

However, since Mimikyu had already lost its ability to battle, they couldn’t make Mimikyu continue fighting, so this was all there was to it.

And very quickly, their attention was drawn by the suddenly glowing light of evolution.

Like Zhang Yu, they initially thought it was Pikachu that was about to evolve.

When they saw clearly, they realized that the Pokémon about to evolve was not Pikachu, but Pichu.

“Pikachu, congratulations on successfully completing your evolution.”

After seeing Pikachu’s evolution completed, Zhang Yu immediately congratulated him and reached out to gently rub him a few times.

“Pikachu~ Pikachu~”

Although after evolving, this Pikachu still felt a little shy about Zhang Yu’s caress, he quickly narrowed his eyes comfortably after feeling Zhang Yu’s touch.

“Pikachu, you also did very well in the battle just now.”

Then Zhang Yu also praised the Pikachu who had been fighting earlier.

However, because both of them were Pikachu, he felt a bit awkward when he said this.

“It seems I’ll have to ask them later if either of them wants to continue evolving.”

“Otherwise, having two Pikachu is really a bit difficult to distinguish.”

Zhang Yu quickly thought of a solution to this point.

As for what to do if both Pikachu want to evolve?

This problem is even simpler. Raichu happens to have two forms. Wouldn’t it be fine if one Pikachu took one form?.

Chapter 167: Mimikyu (Request for Self-Order)

“Next, it’s time to deal with this little guy’s matter.”

After temporarily putting Pikachu’s matter aside, Zhang Yu turned his gaze to Mimikyu.

Since Mimikyu had lost its ability to battle, Zhang Yu definitely needed to give it some simple treatment.

The reason for only a simple treatment and not a complete cure was mainly due to the fact that Mimikyu’s true form cannot be looked at directly.

“This Pokémon defeated by Pikachu is called Mimikyu, a Ghost-type and Fairy Pokémon.”

“To be honest, this is a very good attribute combination. It is not only only countered by Ghost-type and Steel-type, but it can also be immune to Normal-type, Fighting-type, and Dragon-type moves. Furthermore, it has strong resistance to Bug-type-type moves.”

“As for its appearance… As you can see, Mimikyu’s Pikachu-like appearance is not its true form, but merely a disguise. As for why it does this, that’s a long story…”

“Mimikyu is actually a very lonely Pokémon. In order to live in harmony with other Pokémon and humans, and to prevent them from being afraid of it, it disguised itself, wanting to become more popular.”

“And the prototype it chose to disguise itself as was undoubtedly Pikachu.”

“But it’s unclear whether Mimikyu’s aesthetic sense is flawed, or its craftsmanship is not up to par, as it ultimately turned into its current appearance.”

“For various reasons, Mimikyu has always been very envious, even somewhat jealous, of Pikachu. So when it encounters Pikachu, they usually fight, just like before.”

“As for what Mimikyu’s true form looks like… To be honest, even I don’t know.”

“Because it is said that Mimikyu has placed a Curse on itself. Anyone who sees its true form will be afflicted with a strange illness, and Mimikyu will also resist fiercely.”

When he said this, Zhang Yu was also very curious about Mimikyu’s true form.

But to avoid any accidents, he still suppressed his curiosity.

“As a Ghost-type Pokémon, Mimikyu is a nocturnal Pokémon, and it extremely dislikes daylight. To the point where its body weakens once it’s exposed to the sun. Therefore, they usually inhabit dark places where sunlight cannot reach. It is said that the reason it wears a cloth is also to avoid sunlight.”

“One more thing to note is that everyone must not expose Mimikyu’s disguise as Pikachu, otherwise, Mimikyu will get angry and will keep pestering you until it knocks you down.”

“Aside from these shortcomings, Mimikyu also has some adorable aspects.”

“For example, if the cloth on Mimikyu gets torn, its true form will work overtime to repair it.”

“And if the neck part of its Pikachu disguise has a problem, it will stand in front of a mirror and desperately try to straighten its neck. If it doesn’t succeed, it will even hide inside its body and cry.”

When he said the last part, the expression on Zhang Yu’s face was also slightly subtle.

After all, some of Mimikyu’s behaviors seemed genuinely cute to him.

“Oh my! Is Mimikyu’s attribute combination that powerful?”

“This attribute combination is indeed very powerful. Presumably, such Pokémon must be rare, and it’s even possible that Mimikyu is the only Pokémon with this attribute combination.”

“That possibility cannot be ruled out.”

“So that’s why Mimikyu deliberately disguised itself as Pikachu?”

“After hearing Anchor say that, I’m even more curious about what Mimikyu’s true form looks like.”

“Hey, hey! Upstairs, are you trying to court death?”

“I think you’d best not be so reckless. After all, Pokémon are inherently magical, and who knows, there might really be things like Curses?”

“Indeed, no arguments there.”

“Compared to all that nonsense, don’t you think some of Mimikyu’s behaviors are actually quite cute?”

“Yes, it’s quite persistent about maintaining its Pikachu disguise.”

“And this Pikachu disguise it made is also very interesting. Although it felt a bit creepy when I first saw it clearly, after seeing it a few more times, it feels a bit ugly-cute.”

“No way? You guys actually like Mimikyu? Aren’t you afraid that its true form is actually very ugly?”

“What’s the big deal? You can’t see it normally anyway.”

“Yes, from Anchor’s description, it seems that Mimikyu will probably maintain this disguise even after being captured, right? If so, then how much difference is there from this being its true appearance?”

“Actually, if it were to let people see its true form after being captured, wouldn’t that be good?”

“Hiss~ Are you really trying to court death?”

“Young man, your thoughts are very dangerous.”

“Ahem, how can this be called courting death? I’m just purely curious. If I could really see it, then that would naturally be best, but if it’s unwilling, I certainly won’t force it.”

“People who court death always say that. They won’t admit they’re courting death until something actually happens.”

“Haha, that’s really true.”

“I advise those who want to court death to stop your dangerous thoughts. Haven’t you seen that even Anchor didn’t look at Mimikyu’s true form?”

“Yes, from this point of view, such behavior is indeed quite dangerous.”

After hearing Zhang Yu’s introduction to Mimikyu, the Water Friends in the live broadcast room suddenly showed expressions of realization.

They had originally wondered why Mimikyu disguised itself as Pikachu, and why it suddenly attacked. So that was the reason.

After understanding the reasons behind this, they also began to develop some interest in Mimikyu’s true form.

Some even wanted to put their thoughts into action.

In addition, some people, like Zhang Yu, had the thought that Mimikyu was actually quite cute and thus fell in love with Mimikyu.

“Alright, Mimikyu’s injuries have been treated, and we should continue our journey.”

At the same time, Zhang Yu had also finished treating Mimikyu’s injuries and had mended the cloth covering its body.

Chapter 168: Inquiry and Choice (Request for Self-Order)

To prevent Mimikyu from waking up and seeing two Pikachu and attacking again, Zhang Yu also planned to slip away.

“Oh, by the way, you two little guys, do you have any thoughts of continuing to evolve?”

Since he had time now, Zhang Yu began to ask the two Pikachu.

After all, having two Pikachu at the same time wasn’t ideal. Not only was it troublesome to address them, but he also had a bit of trouble distinguishing between the two Pikachu.

So, if possible, he still hoped to resolve this issue as soon as possible.

“Pikachu! Pikachu!”

Upon hearing Zhang Yu’s question, the Pikachu who had evolved first immediately patted his chest, indicating that he still wanted to continue evolving.

“Pikachu~”

The Pikachu who had just completed its evolution, however, seemed a bit hesitant.

This Pikachu, who had followed along because Zhang Yu had rubbed him comfortably, unlike the other Pikachu, didn’t have much desire for power and felt that its current state was already quite good.
