146: Section 146

However, it's quite a pity that Dragon Dive, as one of the Dragon-type's ace moves, is truly not easy to learn.

Aside from a few specific Pokémon, most Pokémon need to be Superior-level, or even Gym-level, to learn it.

Such a threshold is clearly not easily reached.

What? You mean there are still those few specific Pokémon?

Apologies, the exception among those Pokémon is Lugia, which is even less of a Pokémon they can capture.

Of course, besides Dragon Dive, many people are also very interested in Outrage.

However, the difficulty of this move is even greater than Dragon Dive, so there's even less to say about it.

“Super Charizard X, that battle just now was brilliant. Thank you for your hard work.”

Upon seeing that Hydreigon had lost its ability to battle, Zhang Yu immediately walked over to Super Charizard X and praised him.

“Awooo!”

Hearing this, Super Charizard X immediately ended his Super Evolution and proudly raised his head.

However, his pride caused him to pull at his injuries, making a flicker of unnaturalness cross his face.

“Alright, stop trying to act tough. Let me take care of your injuries.”

When Zhang Yu saw Charizard acting like this, he immediately gave him a curious look.

Doesn't this Charizard know he's injured and needs to be careful?

After hearing Zhang Yu's words, Charizard, who had been beaming with pride, could only become well-behaved.

While Zhang Yu was tending to Charizard's injuries, his mouth wasn't idle, and he immediately began introducing Hydreigon to the Water Friends.

“Hydreigon is a Dark-type and Dragon-type Pokémon.”

“Just like its name suggests, Hydreigon is a rare and relatively fierce Pokémon.”

“However, there's a reason why it's like this.”

“Before Hydreigon evolves into its final evolutionary form, it cannot see anything, and for such a Pokémon to survive, hardship is inevitable.”

“Moreover, such experiences have also affected its personality to a certain extent, making it irritable and prone to anger.” “Coupled with its curiosity, which arises from having just gained its eyes, it feels very curious about everything and wants to try to touch it.”

“It's just that because its strength is too great, even if it only touches things playfully, many things cannot withstand its destruction.”

“If some unpleasant things happen during this, it can easily escalate into Hydreigon attacking everything within its line of sight.”

“Besides this, it's worth mentioning that while Hydreigon appears to have three heads, only the middle head is the true head, and the other two heads are actually just its arms; there are no brains inside them.”

“Although it only has one brain, Hydreigon's intelligence is actually very high, but perhaps because its curiosity and destructive urges are too strong, it rarely thinks about other things, so it appears somewhat dull.”

“If you encounter Hydreigon in the wild, you must be very careful. It is a rare and relatively dangerous Pokémon, so it's best to just run away.”

“And don't even think about trying to capture one. Unless it's a Hydreigon raised from a young age, it's very difficult to capture.”

When Zhang Yu introduced Hydreigon to the Water Friends, he couldn't help but feel a bit of a headache.

Because Hydreigon is a rare Pokémon with a worse temper than Gyarados.

Gyarados, at least, won't attack people without reason, but Hydreigon is truly hard to say.

It might accidentally involve you when it's in a bad mood and throwing a tantrum.

And most importantly, Hydreigon's strength is completely overwhelming to others.

If they really encounter such a situation, they won't even be able to resist.

The only thing they can do is escape as quickly as possible, and the further the better.

Chapter 176: What is a Pseudo-Legendary? (Seeking Self-Subscription)

【That's great! Finally, I've seen another genuine Dragon-type Pokémon!】

【I was a bit worried earlier that Hydreigon would again be a Pokémon that looks like a dragon, has 'dragon' in its name, but isn't actually a Dragon-type.】

【Indeed, Hydreigon's personality is a bit… terrible.】

【A bit terrible? It's extremely terrible, okay?】

【Considering its experiences when it was young, this isn't entirely incomprehensible, though.】

【Yes, I didn't expect there to be blind Pokémon among them.】

【But since the personality issues are acquired later, does that mean if we can capture it when it's young and give it enough care, its personality won't become so terrible?】.

【Hiss~ That makes sense!】

【That certainly sounds like a good idea, but the problem is, do we have a chance to encounter Hydreigon's juvenile form?】

【That's a good question. Don't ask it again next time.】

【Unless you're incredibly lucky one day, otherwise, there's absolutely no chance.】

【Sigh, I wonder when I'll be able to capture a powerful Pokémon?】

【As long as you're willing to work hard and put in your true feelings, it shouldn't be too difficult, right? For example, the Snom Anchor recommended earlier is very good.】

【Yes, I heard some people have already successfully captured one.】

【That's right, when I bought Poké Balls today, I saw someone with a Snom, and I was so envious!】

【No way? Has someone really captured a Snom so quickly?】

【Actually, someone already succeeded before. You just found out now, didn't you?】

【One can only say that those overachievers' initiative is simply too strong.】

【No, I need to start working hard too!】

【Huh? Why hasn't Anchor mentioned anything about Pseudo-Legendary creatures at all? Is he planning to skip it again?】

【That's right! There's also this matter of Pseudo-Legendary creatures!】

After hearing Zhang Yu's introduction to Hydreigon, many people showed expressions of 'as expected'.

They had already made some guesses about Hydreigon's situation, and much of what Zhang Yu said now had already been guessed by them.

Especially regarding its type, because Hydreigon had already fought Super Charizard X, they were even more certain.

If there was anything they were still unhappy about, it was Hydreigon's personality. With Hydreigon's temperament, even if they liked it, they wouldn't have much chance to capture it.

And soon, someone realized another thing: Zhang Yu seemed to have not yet mentioned anything about Pseudo-Legendary creatures.

“Ahem, don't be impatient. I have to explain everything about Hydreigon first before I have time to talk about Pseudo-Legendary creatures, don't I?”

Upon seeing the comments criticizing him, Zhang Yu immediately shrugged helplessly.

It wasn't that he wanted to hide information about Pseudo-Legendary creatures; it was simply that he hadn't had time to say it yet.

“Speaking of Pseudo-Legendary creatures, that's a long story. Just by hearing the name, you should know that it contains the meaning of a 'quasi-Legendary creature', so it also has another name: 'Pseudo-Legendary'.”

“Although Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon are categorized as ordinary Pokémon, in reality, their strength surpasses other ordinary Pokémon by a significant margin.”

“If they can fully grow, they can even reach a level extremely close to Legendary creatures. At that time, they will possess the power to cause mountains to collapse and rivers to reverse, the power to change maps.”

“While powerful, the species of Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon are also quite rare.”

“Currently, only a mere ten species of Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon have been discovered. This number is extremely small among the thousands of Pokémon.”

“However, compared to their scarcity, the truly fatal point of Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon is another characteristic: late bloomers.”

“Compared to other Pokémon, Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon require a very long time to grow.”

“Even if other Pokémon have already evolved into their final evolutionary forms, a Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon might not even have undergone its first evolution.”

When Zhang Yu introduced Pseudo-Legendary creatures, he also felt a little regretful.

Normally, as the first Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon he encountered, he would definitely consider whether to capture it.

However, unfortunately, the first Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon he encountered was Hydreigon. He genuinely had no interest in this Pokémon, so he had no choice but to give up on this seemingly tempting idea.

He just wondered when he would encounter another Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon again?

Even Zhang Yu himself was not very confident about this.

After all, as he said, the number of Pseudo-Legendary creatures is simply too small.

Chapter 177: Meeting Again

【No, mountain collapse and earth-shattering, isn't that a bit too exaggerated?】

【Hiss~ Are Pseudo-Legendary creatures really that powerful?】

【Indeed, the strength of Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon should not be underestimated.】

【Exaggerated? I actually think Anchor isn't exaggerating at all. After all, the strength of Legendary creatures is even more exaggerated than this.】

【That's true.】

【I wonder which Pokémon are included in the Pseudo-Legendary group? If only I could capture one of them, that would be truly taking off!】

【How could it be that easy? Didn't you hear Anchor say? There are only ten species of Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon in total, and they are all so rare. How difficult is it to encounter them?】

【Yes, and even if you successfully capture a Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon, cultivating it is an incredibly difficult task. Although Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon have a very high ceiling, they grow slowly. To be honest, I feel that for ordinary people, cultivating a Pseudo-Legendary is simply too difficult.】.
