: Pokémon Glory is so much fun!

Natsuno opened the door and invited Takeran, who was wearing casual clothes, inside.

Zhu Lan immediately spotted Xia Ye and Xiao Cai's game interface, her tone tinged with reproach: "You brat, you didn't even call me when you were playing games."

Seeing that Xia Ye was sitting in the middle of the sofa with Xiao Cai on his right, Zhu Lan sat down directly on Xia Ye's left and snatched the phone from his arms.

With the password 0603 entered skillfully, Xia Ye unlocked her phone, opened the game, and logged into Zhu Lan's account.

With endorsements from numerous PhDs and strong recommendations from regional champions, it's safe to say that nine out of ten people know about this game, and at least seven are playing it.

You can even play Pokémon games, but if it's a Pokémon that's inconvenient to play without fingers, you'll need expensive custom equipment, which most families won't do.

This also overturned Natsuno's understanding: Wow, you can play alone, just by having your own four Pokémon.

For example, at this moment, two Deluxe Balls jumped out of Cynthia's pocket, one a Shark and the other a Lucario.

Lucario also has fingers, making it very convenient to play games, directly using a mobile phone or tablet, while Shark only has two fins and can only stand behind Natsuno and watch longingly.

Shark is actually a netizen who really loves playing this game.

Lance handed her phone to Lucario, who grabbed it, logged into his account, and sat down in the chair opposite the sofa.

Seeing four players, Natsuno decided to invite a certain young lady to join. He switched to Pokémon Chat and sent a message to the account with the ID "Carderia": Playing games, Cynthia is here too, come quickly!

Seeing the reply from the other party instantly! Natsuno created a room and waited.

System notification: Player "Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off" has created a room.

System notification: Friend "Natsuno is the best in the world" has entered the room.

System notification: Friend 'I'll Call You Ono' has entered the room.

System notification: Friend 'Waveguide Resides in My Heart' has entered the room.

System notification: Friend "Zhu Lan and Xiao Ya for Life" has entered the room.

Seeing that everything was ready, Natsuno started the game immediately.

In the game's voice chat, Gadriya is yelling, "I want to go bottom lane with Orchid!"

Natsuno ignored her; he was used to playing support. Cynthia was even more unique in her habits. The three of them let the Pokémon choose their Pokémon first (this sentence is a bit awkward, what's going on?).

Counterintuitively, Pokémon don't like using their own Pokémon in the games.

Natsuno guessed that perhaps he was tired of being himself, so he wanted to try being a different Pokémon in the game, which would be a unique experience.

For example, Milotic, like Cynthia, likes to play with humanoid characters, probably because Milotic doesn't have hands or feet in reality.

Her Rock Golem prefers to play with extremely agile and flashy moves, perhaps because Rock Golem is not very convenient to move around in normal times.

In the game, any Pokémon you choose will be in its initial form. Pokémon that need to evolve will gradually evolve after leveling up. Pokémon that cannot evolve will have unique characteristics that compensate for the lack of stats caused by not being able to evolve.

Communication evolution has special locations, and the struggle for communication points to delay the opponent's evolution is a fascinating game.

Lucario first chose Blaziken with Speed ​​Boost, equipped with moves like Double Kick, Quick Attack, and Swords Dance, taking a jungle route.

Xiao Cai has locked onto Dragonite, using Dragon Claw + Water Jet + Extreme Speed ​​+ Dragon Dance, following a development path. This type of Pokémon evolves later in the game, but its stats will be slightly higher in the later stages.

However, these Pokémon are required to choose two high-power moves and one status move, making the early game extremely difficult. They are basically going to be constantly beaten down by their opponents, which fits their late-blooming nature.

Zhu Lan, following her usual practice, directly selected all random options, which was incredibly arrogant, making Xia Ye raise an eyebrow involuntarily.

[System notification: Player "Just Call You Little Wild" selected all random moves. Her randomly selected Pokémon is: Scyther, with the ability being Technician, and the moves being Twin Wings, Swords Dance, Grass, and Double Hit.]

Yes, if you choose all random options in this game, it will lock a random result that cannot be changed. Even if you choose to change a skill every 15 minutes in the game, the result will be randomly changed.

Then there will be a system announcement, which is both a declaration of expertise and an extreme provocation: I can crush you even with a completely random match!

Xia Ye was speechless when he saw her random result: "Sister, you're a pro, with Double Wings + Sword Dance + Drafting + Double Strike? You're declared the winner right away, is this how random things are?"

Oh, my sister is my teammate, that's fine then, random is good, sis, I'll play support for you!

Unable to resist, he exclaimed, "Champion, you are so mighty and awesome! I'll play support for you!"

But Cattleya beat her to it, choosing the mischievous wind sprite and using it to help the parasitic seed poison powder.

With four variations of moves and no offensive skills, this is a pure support role combination, so Natsuno can't really say anything.

But Cynthia spoke up: "Cai, go to the bottom lane. The Pokémon she chose needs more support. I'm going to the mid lane."

Caldelia was sullen, but she couldn't argue back, so she could only agree.

Seeing that only the top lane remained, Natsuno locked onto Electabuzz, using Quick Attack + Charge Beam + Charge + Electric Terrain.

Shinji's ace in the anime. After watching the Sinnoh series, Natsuno fell in love with this cool and handsome guy.

Upon entering the loading screen, Natsuno saw that the enemy top laner was Pichu, and he grinned wickedly: "You dare to come to the top lane? Useless thing."

...

"Useless thing, can't even get a way to contact them? What about Pokémon audio/video messages?"

"The other party has set a mutual follow requirement to send more messages. Currently, I can only send one message, and the other party does not reply. There is no response even after following."

"Forget it, you keep looking, try every possible way to find it."

While Natsuno and his friends were playing games together, tech companies around the world were all simultaneously struggling to get Natsuno's contact information.

Especially that video of Natsuno making empty promises, it was so tempting! How can people not go crazy when someone tells you something you never dared to imagine is actually possible?

But not everyone is happy.

At a five-star hotel in Carlos, a group of well-dressed, affluent middle-aged people are gathered together discussing something.

They all run a chain of breeding farms, specializing in breeding and selling eggs of Pokémon with perfect genetic traits.

"If it's really possible to alter Pokémon's moves through gene editing or similar means, then what's the point of our breeding center? We'd all have to close down!"

"Can you find Natsuno's contact information? We can cooperate with him to expand our existing Pokémon move pool and then do high-end customization. Only we have Pokémon with multiple moves."

"I can't get in touch with him. I contacted Yukinari Ohki, but he refused outright. This Natsuno is one of Ohki's researchers. I'm afraid he's just as old-fashioned as Ohki."

"Ha, this Yukinari Oak is something else too. He doesn't know how to make money, and he even pushed the League to establish some Pokémon Rights Law, which caused our past income to shrink drastically. If this Natsuno is the same..."

"Then there's nothing we can do, but let's try our best. Making wild guesses before we even see the person is useless. But if they don't cooperate, I'd rather destroy this theory."

"Just like last time."
