Live Stream Treasure Appraisal: Your elf isn't thriving!

Chapter 390 I am Kapoor Gorilla, with the same characteristics as the Guardian God, 1

Chapter 390 I am Kapoor Gorilla, with the same characteristics as the Guardian Angel. If one slide tackle isn't enough, then two will do!

[If you don't understand, what kind of Pokémon is this?]

[Dude, are you serious or just acting? You don't even know this Pokémon? It's the final evolution of one of the Grass-type starter Pokémon! You know Grookey, right?]

[If you had mentioned Grookey earlier, I would have understood! Grookey, that little monkey, can evolve into such a majestic creature. No wonder it's one of the starter Pokémon; it's a carefully selected one!]

At this point, without Ye Yinchuan saying anything more, the comments section was already buzzing with information, essentially revealing the identity of this Pokémon—

Grass-type Pokémon, Tapu Rangoon... no, it's Rangoon!

When it comes to Rillaboom's strength, it's top-notch. Whether in the game battles before the time travel or as Leon's Pokémon in the anime, its performance is truly amazing...

In this Pokémon world, it's naturally not weak either.

However, because Charizard and the other starter Pokémon are so deeply ingrained in people's minds, and because they were a relatively late-established starter series, Rillaboom's true strength has not yet been fully explored...

Trainers who possess this form of Pokémon are relatively few.

But this Rillaboom in front of us, barring any unforeseen circumstances, has touched upon the threshold of true strength. It's unclear whether this was intentional on the trainer's part or just a fluke...

Ye Yinchuan tentatively believes that it is more likely to be a fluke.

"Okay, let's examine it then. Adjust the camera a bit and show me a few different angles so I can take a good look."

Identifying Pokémon is a traditional skill in Ye Yinchuan's live stream.

Now that we've finally got a decent high-level Pokémon, we naturally have to give it a thorough evaluation so that the audience can see for themselves!

The appearance of the Thunder King Kong is undoubtedly that of a gorilla. The hair on its head, composed of leaves, is very thick. The "microphone" mentioned earlier is actually a vine that branches off from its forehead, and in terms of hairstyle, it also resembles the bangs...

The area around the eyes, ears, and nose of the gorilla is black, making it look like it's wearing an eye patch, giving it a deep and cool, superhero-like appearance.

Because of the gorilla design, the unruly hairstyle, and the grass-like elements on the wrists and belt...

Some say that the Thunder King Kong is the image of a rock singer, but in Ye Yinchuan's eyes, the Thunder King Kong is more like a musical savage from a primitive forest tribe...

In fact, the gorillas in the wild are like tribes, and the gorillas who play the drum best often take on the role of leader.

Another noteworthy feature is that the gorilla's nose looks like a small heart, while the hairless areas on its chest and shoulders are shaped like butterflies...

This, in a way, shows that the Thunder King Kong is a type that is outwardly gentle but inwardly strong...

In addition, the butterfly... inexplicably reminded Ye Yinchuan of Tapu Lele, although in fact, Raptor was nicknamed "Tapu Raptor" because it has the same powerful ability as Tapu Bulu, "Grass Maker"!

With the activation of the Eye of Insight, the entire panel of the Thunderous Ape was displayed before Ye Yinchuan's eyes—

[Drummer Pokémon: Rillaboom]

[Level: 36]

[Attribute: Grass]

[Gender: Male]

[Racial stats: S-rank (530)]

Individual Value: Grade B (133)

【Characteristic: Grass Maker】

[Personality: Calm and composed]

[Skills: Drumming, Grab, Shout, Taunt, Double Strike, War Cry, Grassy Ground, Wooden Spear Thrust, Leaf Dagger, Piercing Sound, Slap, Throw, Grass Lift, Grass Slide]

Status: Normal

[Evolutionary Path: Grookey - Patton - Rumblebee]

[Trait: None]

After carefully examining the panel, Ye Yinchuan nodded in satisfaction. This Thunder King Kong Ape, while not top-tier, was certainly a fine specimen.

Most importantly, it possesses Rumble's most powerful hidden ability, "Grass Maker," which makes it worthy of the name "Kappa Rumble."

Some people here don't quite understand the "Kapok Gorilla" meme.

The Tapu Lele and Tapu Bulu mentioned earlier are both guardian spirits, belonging to the legendary Pokémon category, which are also considered mythical beasts...

Rillaboom is nicknamed "Kapoo" because it is the only Pokémon besides Tapu Bulu that may possess the "Grassmaker" ability. Combined with its strength, it is jokingly referred to as Rillaboom, implying that it is as powerful as a legendary Pokémon!

"Hmm, I can tell that you, Thunder King Kong, haven't evolved for very long, have you?"

Ye Yinchuan hit the nail on the head.

"A miracle worker! Snorlax truly lives up to its reputation; my Rillaboom really did evolve just last week!"

The person on the other end of the line said in surprise.

"They're pretty much the same level, aren't they?"

For Ye Yinchuan, judging the level of a Pokémon by visual inspection is considered the most basic skill.

Then, he briefly introduced the basic background of this Thunder King Kong Ape. For Ye Yinchuan, this was a familiar topic, but for the person connecting, he couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Only this Snorlax expert could explain the situation of his Pokémon so clearly just by watching a few glances at the screen during a live stream!

"The most powerful and unique aspect of this Thunder King Kong is its ability to conceal its abilities..."

As he spoke, Ye Yinchuan paused slightly.

Do you know what its characteristics are?

Ye Yinchuan didn't answer directly, but instead asked a question.

"Isn't my Thunder Raptor's special ability 'Overgrowth'? It can easily create grassy terrain every time, and with the help of grassy terrain, it can unleash its strengths. If one slide isn't enough to finish off the opponent, then two slides will do!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Yinchuan felt more confident.

Clearly, the people in this Pokémon world probably don't know about the "Grassmaker" ability. Otherwise, even the trainer himself wouldn't be completely unaware of it and mistakenly think that this god-tier ability is "Overgrow".

"Overgrow? While that's a good ability, this Rillaboom's ability is definitely not your average one... Otherwise, why do you think its Slide has such extraordinary power?"

This statement immediately sparked an uproar in the live chat.

It seems the streamer has something to say again!

[This overwhelming air of pretentiousness is just the same old flavor, the same old recipe!]

[Spit it out, or I'll unfollow!]

At this moment, the person on the other end of the line had been so manipulated by the streamer that he was completely out of his mind. He said in a sincere tone:

"My understanding of Pokémon, and Rillaboom, is still too superficial. Please enlighten me, streamer!"

At the same time, he also felt a little smug, because the more extraordinary the Raptor was, the more face and sense of accomplishment he, as its trainer, would feel.

"If I'm not mistaken, its ability should be 'Grass Terrain.' A Rillaboom with this ability could theoretically create grassy terrain with a mere flick of its wrist... and actively using 'Grass Terrain' would be even more powerful!"

[A grass maker? This is the first time I've heard of this trait...]

[Are you sure this isn't made up? I don't want to ask that question anymore...]

[666? You can create grass fields with just a snap? That means an infinite number of grass fields? That sounds awesome!]

Upon hearing this, the person on the other end of the line paused for a moment in thought:

"So it's because of its ability? I thought it was because of my Rillaboom's innate talent, its exceptional skill in using Grassy Terrain, and its Overgrow ability that allowed it to achieve that level..."

At this point, Ye Yinchuan also wanted to give the audience a better viewing experience, so he mentioned:

"Could we find a more suitable place for your Thunder King Kong to demonstrate its abilities? Otherwise, just sitting here is really a waste of its talents."

The person on the other end of the line thought it made sense and immediately agreed:

"Alright! I'll arrange a practice match right away, how about that?"

Hearing this, Ye Yinchuan nodded slightly, and was also a little curious about what Pokémon the other party would use to spar with Raptor. After all, it was the final evolved form of one of the three starter Pokémon, and ordinary opponents would not be able to match its strength, making it difficult to demonstrate Raptor's power.

Shortly after, the camera shifted to a different location. The other side pushed open a door, passed through two corridors, and entered an environment resembling a basement. The interior was quite spacious, revealing it to be a private battleground.

[Dude, you live in a basement? Who has a home big enough for such a battleground?]

Okay, no wonder you keep a giant gorilla, turns out you're rich...

[The battleground is in a basement? Won't they all be buried if it collapses?]

"Don't worry, it's been specially reinforced. Unless it's a powerful Pokémon over level 60 using a super-powerful Ground-type move, it generally won't collapse."

The liaison confidently explained, while simultaneously releasing a Pokémon to serve as Rumble's opponent.

Upon seeing this Pokémon, Ye Yinchuan's expression shifted slightly, and he leaned back tactically.

This guy's Pokémon lineup is pretty good. Besides this Raptor, he even has a Water-type starter Pokémon in its final evolution form!

This Pokémon wasn't unfamiliar to Ye Yinchuan, after all, it was one of the starter Pokémon, and its unevolved form had appeared in a previous live stream...

Now, I've finally seen its true form in this real world.

This Pokémon is clearly in the shape of a four-legged sea creature, and its prototype is obviously an otter or a sea lion...

Its head, limbs, and even the middle part of its tail are covered with shell-like material resembling armor...

The helmet on his head resembled a samurai helmet with pointed horns, while the ones on his limbs looked like bracers...

In addition, this Pokémon has long white whiskers, an exaggerated design that exudes majesty and dominance, and its eyes are quite sharp...

Not bad, this Pokémon is the Water-type Oshawott, the final evolution of the starter Pokémon, Sculptor!

Wow, a Swordmaster and a Rillaboom—they must be either very experienced trainers or quite wealthy!

[So cool... This is the dream of so many people: to raise the starter Pokémon to their final evolved form!]

[That's interesting, but if I remember correctly, the Greatsword is a Water-type, right? The Raptor is purely Grass-type, isn't that unfair?]

"In terms of type advantage, Grass type does indeed counter Water type, but this Samurai is more than five levels higher. The level advantage can make up for this imbalance... Moreover, besides Water type moves, Samurai is very good at slashing moves, and even some Bug type moves can counter Grass type."

Ye Yinchuan gave his pre-battle assessment.

We'll have to wait and see!

Wait a minute... Greatsword Demon, a slashing type, so where's its sword? It can't be the horn on its head, can it?

Seeing the small doubts and big question marks in the comments, Ye Yinchuan smiled slightly.

People who don't know the Greatsword Demon but are seeing it for the first time will indeed have this question, including him in the past.

"Look closely, the Greatsword Demon's forelimbs have shell-like bracers; there's a protruding sword hilt there. The Greatsword Demon will draw it during battle; that's a weapon called a foot blade..."

[Foot blade, so it's called a foot blade because it's on the foot, right?]

That's a dagger, how can you call it a greatsword?

Is it possible that "big" is used to describe "ghost" and not "sword"?

As they were talking, the Greatsword Demon and the Thunder King Kong had already taken their places on the fighting platform.

"Ready? Thunder King Kong, Greatsword Demon?"

The person connecting never showed his face, but he remained active throughout.

Rillaboom and Sculptor are both high-level Pokémon, very intelligent and with their own thoughts. At this moment, they look at the camera and then at each other, their eyes sparkling with fighting spirit.

Battle is imminent.

The Greatsword Demon used stillness to control movement, his energy surging, and he clearly inhaled, his attention seemingly becoming more focused...

This is clearly "Gathering Qi," which can concentrate the mind, enhance the mobilization of strength and energy, and make it easier to hit the enemy's vital points!

Immediately afterwards, the Greatsword Demon began to gather a large amount of water-based energy, and a huge water sphere rolled above its head, continuing to grow larger...

The Thunder King Kong didn't just wait around. It immediately leaned forward, shifting its center of gravity and sliding forward quickly with its entire body in a sliding tackle motion...

Incredibly, as Raptor glides forward, grass begins to grow in its path, thanks to the "Grass Maker" ability!

Using the grass slide on the grassy field is like a fish in water, greatly enhancing the power and speed of Grass-type moves. As a result, even though the Great Rumble is very big, it becomes as slippery as an eel once it hits the ground, transforming into a green streak of light as it charges fiercely towards the Greatsword...

At this moment, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but hum: "Love is a light, so green it makes you panic..."

Because the Thunder King Kong was too fast, the Greatsword Demon had no time to hesitate and decisively hurled the water ball above his head at the opponent like a torrential downpour...

This is the move "Soaking," the purest water-attribute energy, which can soak the opponent and turn them into a water-attribute user.

If the Thunder King Kong is concentrated by this "water immersion," its grass-type energy will be greatly disrupted, causing its combat power to drop significantly...

But the King Kong's slide tackle can actually turn!

With a swift turn, the Thunder King Kong Ape dodged the Greatsword Demon's water sphere, then turned again and slammed it into the Greatsword Demon's foot...

It was clear that at the moment of impact, the Greatsword Demon drew his foot blade and attacked the Thunder King Kong...

Unfortunately, its foot blades were always a step slower than the Thunder King Kong's sliding tackle!

The Greatsword Demon was thrown into disarray, and the tide of battle turned instantly!

[This... the grass slide can even turn?! How did the Thunder King Kong manage that?!]

The barrage of comments was astounding.
