93: Section 93

This is a very good choice for both Pichu and the Trainer.

And don't underestimate Pichu's strength; its potential is not small at all. Even setting aside the unique case of Pikachu, Raichu's strength is also quite good.

It was precisely because of this that he even spoke about the mental preparation needed before interacting with Pichu.

【So these little guys are called Pichu? I really want to take one home.】

【While Pichu is indeed very cute, it doesn't seem to be able to control its electricity very well, which can inevitably cause some accidental injuries. Is that okay?】.

Chapter 111: Professional Cuteness Team! (Seeking Self-Subscription)

【I don't think it's a big problem. After all, Anchor also said that the electricity Pichu usually releases is not strong, so even if we are accidentally hit, there won't be any safety issues.】

【Yes, and this is mainly because Pichu is too young. Once it grows a bit older, it should be able to control its electricity freely.】

【That's true, but by the time Pichu grows up, won't it have evolved? Are you sure Pichu won't become ugly after evolving?】

【Ugly? I don't think so.】

【It's hard to say. Anyway, I feel Venusaur isn't as good-looking as Bulbasaur.】

【This is indeed also a problem.】

【Although there might indeed be cases where Pokémon's appearance decreases after evolution, that's a very small probability. We shouldn't be so unlucky as to encounter it, right?】

【If you're so worried, then why not just prevent Pichu from evolving?】

【You say that easily, but how can evolution be stopped?】.

【Yeah, you'd know that's impossible even if you thought about it with your butt.】

【Pichu hasn't even been caught yet. Is it meaningful for you to worry about such things?】

【I also feel they are being a bit too overly concerned. Is it necessary to worry so much just because of a small probability event?】

【Alas, after all, Pichu is so cute, giving people an unreal feeling, which inevitably makes people worry if it has any shortcomings.】

【Speaking of shortcomings, isn't being timid one?】

【And being weak in strength is also a shortcoming.】

【Actually, I think as long as you can accept Pichu's timidity, its weakness, and its inability to control its abilities, which might cause trouble, then raising a Pichu at home is definitely not a loss.】

【Honestly, that's true.】

After hearing Zhang Yu's introduction to Pichu, the Water Friends became even more tempted, but also couldn't help but feel a sense of worry.

After all, Pichu is so cute. What if its appearance after evolution isn't as outstanding? Wouldn't that create a huge sense of disappointment?

It was precisely this worry that made some Water Friends hesitate.

"If you're worried about Pichu's appearance after evolution, there's absolutely no need to worry."

"In fact, there are several other Electric-type rodent Pokémon like Pichu, but without exception, all of them have high appearances, and most of them follow the cute route."

"When it comes to being cute, Electric rodents are professionals."

"For example, Pichu's evolution, Pikachu, is a very cute Pokémon."

After noticing some of the bullet comments in the live stream, Zhang Yu felt a bit amused and immediately began to explain to them.

As one of the representative Pokémon of the huge Pokémon IP, Pikachu's appearance is definitely beyond question.

And the other Electric rodents are also not bad at all. Whether it's Pachirisu or Emolga, or Plusle and Minun, they are all Pokémon famous for their cuteness.

"Chu~"

As if to respond to Zhang Yu's words, a bolder Pichu had already come up to Zhang Yu, tilted its head slightly, and stared at Zhang Yu with a pair of innocent big eyes, unblinking.

Although Pichu didn't say anything, its expression practically had the words "I'm cute, please give me food" written all over its face.

"You really are not shy at all."

Facing Pichu's cuteness offensive, Zhang Yu naturally didn't have much resistance.

He readily chose to surrender and handed an Electric-type energy cube to that Pichu.

The reason there was only one energy cube wasn't because he was stingy, but because he was worried that more would make Pichu overeat.

"Chu~"

Upon seeing the energy cube, that Pichu first let out a cheer, then carefully took the energy cube and gave Zhang Yu a big smile.

Seeing this, Zhang Yu finally couldn't resist and immediately reached out to give this Pichu a good petting.

Perhaps because it had received delicious food, that Pichu was quite cooperative. Not only did it not dodge, but it even actively rubbed its head against Zhang Yu.

"Chu~"

"Chu Chu!"

Just when Zhang Yu thought the matter was over, he found that the other Pichu had also bravely gathered around and were looking at him with sparkling eyes.

"Everyone, line up, one by one."

Upon seeing this scene, Zhang Yu could only sigh and take out more energy cubes.

The Pichu heard this and immediately lined up obediently.

【Is Pichu's evolution called Pikachu? I wonder what it looks like?】

【Since Anchor said it's cute, then it must not be bad.】

【In that case, I can rest assured. Even if Pichu evolves, its appearance is guaranteed.】

【It's decided! I must catch a Pichu!】

【Although that's true, catching a Pichu isn't easy. Just finding a Pichu is a big problem.】

【Does that mean we can only find Pichu by entering the Unknown Land where Anchor is?】

【Regarding this, there's actually no need to worry. I just searched online and found that some people have seen Pichu in other places, and it's even in the country!】

【Really? That's great!】

【Compared to Pichu and Pikachu, I'm more interested in other Electric rodent Pokémon now. After all, Anchor also said that those Pokémon are also very cute.】

【If there's a Pokémon that's both cute and has some strength, that would be even better.】

【Can there really be such a perfect Pokémon? I feel that only the initial stages of Pokémon are cute. After evolution, although their appearance is still high, they are clearly not in that style anymore.】

【There are so many types of Pokémon, so there should indeed be such Pokémon, but perhaps they would be very rare.】

【Yes, after all, this requirement is quite strict. There should be very few Pokémon that meet the conditions.】

【How is that 'quite strict'? It's already very strict, okay?】

【Yes, that's almost like a Pokémon that is both powerful and easy to find.】

After hearing Zhang Yu's evaluation of Pikachu, the Water Friends, who had originally still been a bit worried, were completely relieved.

However, some people had other ideas because of Zhang Yu's teasing of the Electric rodent group.

After all, while Pichu is indeed very cute, not everyone likes it. The main reason for this is the issue of its strength.

Pichu really doesn't seem strong.

So, those who wanted Pokémon to be both cute and powerful were not very satisfied with Pichu.

"You really have a lot of demands."

Upon seeing that some people were disdainful of Pichu's strength, Zhang Yu didn't know what to say for a moment.

Admittedly, Pichu's strength is indeed a bit weak, but its potential is not weak at all.

However, Zhang Yu did not intend to talk about Pichu's potential now. That would easily attract people who don't really like Pichu but only want powerful Pokémon.

If Pichu's potential were easy to develop, it would be one thing, but the problem is that Pichu's potential is truly not easy to fully develop.

It's easy for Pichu to evolve into Pikachu, but for Pikachu to continue evolving, it needs a Thunder Stone.

"Huh?"

"Why did you two also come over?"

When Zhang Yu realized something was amiss and pulled back his thoughts, he found that the ones standing in front of him asking for energy cubes were no longer the Pichu, but Snivy and Miraidon.

This immediately made a line of black marks appear on Zhang Yu's forehead.

"Snivy~"

Snivy heard this and immediately rubbed its stomach, putting on a pitiful expression.

"Alright, alright, here you go."

Seeing this, Zhang Yu sighed helplessly and then had no choice but to take out a few of Snivy's exclusive energy cubes and hand them to it.

After taking the energy cubes from Zhang Yu, Snivy immediately ran off to the side excitedly.

After sending Snivy away, Zhang Yu turned his attention to Miraidon.

What Zhang Yu didn't expect was that Miraidon also learned from Snivy's actions, rubbed its stomach, and put on a pitiful expression.

But the same action and the same expression on different Pokémon had completely different effects.

If Snivy's behavior made one feel like wanting to protect it, then Miraidon's behavior was startling, as such an action really didn't match its style.
