Chapter 463 Cursed Doll and Super Evolution?
Chapter 463 Cursed Doll and Super Evolution?
Chapter 463 Cursed Doll and Mega Evolution? A Magikarp that eats and grows rapidly, its special trait is "Dirty Muscle Gain"!
Ye Yinchuan's statement that the evolutionary relationship between the Cursed Doll and the Wraith Doll is unclear has its reasons; it's definitely not just something he said based on a dream.
That's because, in the official Pokédex, there doesn't seem to be a logical connection between the descriptions of Cursed Doll and Spectral Doll...
Regarding the Shadow Doll, the encyclopedia only mentions that it can use the horn on its head to absorb emotions such as jealousy and resentment to become stronger.
Cursed Doll, which is supposed to be the evolved form of Gloomy Doll, is uniquely described in its Pokédex as "a discarded doll that was transformed into a Pokémon by intense resentment," which creates a sense of disconnect.
Could it be that before evolution, it wasn't a discarded toy, but after evolution, it suddenly gained this background?
After learning about this situation through the official encyclopedia, Ye Yinchuan's first reaction was that he found it quite strange and was somewhat puzzled.
But upon closer reflection, perhaps the description of the Cursed Doll in the encyclopedia is a supplement to the background of the Wraith Doll, and there is still a strong connection between the two: "resentment"...
Of course, it's also possible that the person who compiled the encyclopedia didn't think it through and wrote it rather casually, resulting in something that doesn't make sense.
Regardless, the evolutionary chain between Spectrum and Cursed Doll is undeniable, and in the real world of Pokémon, there is likely a rigorous evolutionary logic.
"The cursed doll looks like a black rag doll with its mouth sealed by a zipper. It has crimson eyes with a strange shape, as if its eyelids have been sewn together..."
Unlike the Spectral Doll, the Cursed Doll has four limbs, but its hands hang limply as if broken...
The cursed doll also has a tail with spiky protrusions, and its head, compared to the vengeful doll, has a horn on its head, pointed tips on both sides, and a long, trailing head of hair!
"Dude, you're going into such detail, do you actually have a cursed doll on hand?"
[His eyelids were stitched up, and his eyes were still red... It's terrifying, bro!]
[The host says this: we barely even understand the Shadow Doll, but this Cursed Doll is just common knowledge to it!]
"The reason I say that the relationship between the vengeful doll and the cursed doll is not clearly related in an evolutionary chain is because although both are dolls and both harbor resentment, their habitats and habits are very different..."
Cursed Dolls are typically found in junkyards. It's said that the original form of a Cursed Doll is likely a discarded doll that developed intense resentment and transformed into this Pokémon, seeking revenge on the person who abandoned it...
It lingers near those who abandoned it, seeking an opportunity for revenge... and thus, some may see it in the dimly lit box.
"By the way, the cursed doll's tail actually looks a lot like the pin used in a kind of curse called 'Suppressing Doll Technique.' When it pricks itself with its tail, it generates a strong curse energy..."
The reason its mouth is sealed is that if it opens, curse energy will escape. When the cursed doll is not strong enough, this will become its weakness. However, if it can control its curse energy, it might be able to develop it into a troublesome attack method for enemies.
[It's a bit like a voodoo doll; does it curse others by harming oneself?]
What are the base stats? Does evolution significantly improve them? What about their abilities?
"The characteristics of the Cursed Doll and the Wraith Doll are not just similar, they are exactly the same. You have to choose one of the three: 'Perception,' 'Insomnia,' or 'Cursed Body.' Among them, 'Cursed Body' is generally the most powerful, and it has the lowest probability of appearing as a hidden characteristic..."
Ye Yinchuan recounted the story in detail,
"Cursed Doll's base stat total is around 455. As a Ghost Pokémon, its base stats are quite difficult to measure... However, surprisingly, Cursed Doll's performance in physical damage is even better than its performance in special damage..."
[They even claimed they didn't have any cursed dolls, and that they had conducted tests and research on them!]
[Sigh, the streamer is still young and can't keep secrets. I suggest sending over a well-trained Cursed Doll to help me realize my dream of becoming a professional trainer.]
[Her base stats are really low... But this is only the second stage of evolution, is there still room for further evolution?]
Wait a minute, this is supposed to be a ghost Pokémon related to resentment, and its abilities are curses or something, but it's actually better at physical attacks? Cursed Doll, you rascal...
Is it possible that this curse inflicts physical damage on the user while simultaneously transferring that damage to another Pokémon? It makes sense that a Pokémon with pins on its tail would have strong physical attacks, right?
Viewers showed great interest in this ghost Pokémon they had never heard of before, and the discussion in the live stream was quite lively.
Upon hearing about evolution, Ye Yinchuan's spirits lifted slightly. "If that's what you're talking about, then I'm not sleepy anymore."
"It is said that the cursed doll has a very obvious potential for super evolution. As long as the conditions are met, super evolution is basically a certainty."
Ye Yinchuan appeared uncertain, but in reality, he was practically making it clear: Cursed Doll was a Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution, and he knew its form and abilities perfectly well.
[Oh? Mega Evolution? Judging from the streamer's words, not all Pokémon can Mega Evolve?]
It seems there won't be a third stage of regular evolution, and the potential for Mega Evolution is probably limited as well!
[Could the streamer get us a cursed doll, or even a super-evolution of a cursed doll, to show us?]
"That's no problem. We'll get it done for you when the streamer has time!"
Ye Yinchuan readily agreed.
[Host, you owe us so many promises, do you even realize that?]
I would call him the legendary loan king!
[What's there to be afraid of? The streamer has the ability to deliver, mainly because he knows so many Pokémon secrets! Even if he only shows us one Pokémon a day, it could probably keep him streaming for a year!]
A year? A lifetime!
Seeing the teasing comments in the live chat, Ye Yinchuan felt a little guilty:
"If the streamer ever forgets to keep their promise, you can gently remind them, and we'll make sure to arrange it as soon as possible!"
At this point, everything that needed to be said has been said.
Ye Yinchuan spoke a few more words to the person on the other end of the line, saying that if she encountered any problems later, she could come to the live broadcast room to find him at any time, which could be considered as after-sales service for the live broadcast.
"Alright, let's welcome the next dream chaser!"
With Ye Yinchuan's help, another Pokémon entered the LAN's field of vision.
Upon seeing this Pokémon, Ye Yinchuan's expression shifted slightly.
This Pokémon is not a rare or newly appeared Pokémon, but a very familiar one, even a bit too common.
【What year is this? Does anyone still use Magikarp for online connections?】
[Don't even mention it, this Magikarp is so round and plump! I've never seen such a fat Magikarp before!]
[Just a chubby carp, isn't it cute!]
"Host, I'd like you to assess my Magikarp. I'm about to participate in the Magikarp High Jump Contest, but my Magikarp, which was originally very strong with eight-pack abs, has inexplicably gotten much fatter in the month of preparation, like it's been inflated into a balloon..."
At this rate, forget about high jumps, even turning over will be difficult, and he'll sink to the bottom when he enters the water... The once dashing Magikarp is going to become a salty fish king who has lost his dreams!
[Haha, is this person just messing around? How could a Magikarp possibly have eight-pack abs? I'd believe it if it was drawn on!]
[It takes real skill to raise a Magikarp to be this fat; it's practically a red pig!]
[The Magikarp High Jump Contest...sounds pretty abstract!]
Ye Yinchuan chuckled as he looked at the Magikarp and the teasing comments on the screen.
Looking at that Magikarp again, it was indeed plump and round, with every scale glistening with oil. Its thick lips and wide eyes made it look even fatter and dumber. This one Magikarp was worth five or six normal ones!
It's so heavy that even an adult with outstretched arms couldn't wrap their arms around it.
At this moment, the Magikarp was at the bottom of the tank, its fat even touching the glass below, blowing bubbles, looking as steady as a mountain, which was really hilarious.
Regarding the discussion about bullet comments, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but recall an episode in the anime where a fat Magikarp appeared, along with a powerful Magikarp with abs... I think that Magikarp was even a shiny gold one...
It was probably a Magikarp high jump competition, but it was very absurd and had a comedic style. In the end, Magikarp jumped out of the atmosphere.
One commenter complained that, theoretically, any creature that flies out of the atmosphere would be attacked by Rayquaza...
Compared to Rayquaza, Magikarp feels like a crunchy, one-bite monster that's not even good enough to fill a tooth gap!
"Host, I know it's funny, but please don't laugh yet. Can you take a look? Is there any hope for me? If it's really like this, I'll be in deep trouble!"
The person on the other end of the line was on the verge of tears.
He had originally bought this Magikarp with its eight-pack abs for a huge sum of money, and it had even helped him win a battle once. But suddenly it gained so much weight...
Who would have thought, who would have thought!
Ye Yinchuan coughed twice, and the smile on his face faded slightly:
"There's hope! Or rather... I should congratulate you!"
Upon hearing this, the person on the other end of the line looked even more bitter:
"Stop teasing me, streamer. Are you congratulating me to make my Magikarp weigh more and sell a few more pounds?"
Haha, that cracked me up!
[Laughing until I'm rich!]
"I'm not kidding, your Magikarp is likely to win the championship, barring any unforeseen circumstances!"
Ye Yinchuan smiled.
This is quite interesting, and he also feels relieved for his fan.
The person on the other end frowned, realizing something was wrong:
"Could it be that there's something fishy about me, this Magikarp?"
Ye Yinchuan nodded:
"Of course! Otherwise, where would a regular Magikarp get its eight-pack abs, and how could it suddenly get so fat? Pokémon also have to follow the principles of energy conservation and science!"
I believe anyone who talks to me about science, but you, streamer, are beyond belief. Many of your actions are downright mystical!
[Host, please elaborate!]
Ye Yinchuan's gaze fell on the Magikarp again, its detailed stats displayed in full view.
Leaving aside other matters for now.
The key lies in this Magikarp's special qualities!
[Characteristic: Dirt-prone muscle gain]
This Magikarp possesses a unique muscle-building technique, capable of consuming large amounts of food in a short time and storing the calories in its body. While this appears to store a lot of fat, its muscle mass is actually increasing rapidly… If it is fed more high-calorie food, its muscle growth will be even faster, and its strength and physical attributes will also improve significantly!
Looking at this trait, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but want to laugh.
Who invented the trait of muscle gain? Was it Arceus?
"Let me put it this way, your Magikarp is exceptionally gifted. The faster it gets fat, the faster its muscles grow, and the more its strength increases... Have you been intentionally dieting it lately? I advise you to feed it more, don't be afraid to feed it more, give it the most potent food, let it eat like crazy and grow like crazy!"
Is this for real?
[Kibi herself said it, it's more real than pearls!]
"No way?"
The contact person was instinctively incredulous.
But the person speaking in front of us is none other than Kabi Jianbao, whose words are renowned for their weight and significance.
"You don't believe me? Have you tried its power? Although it's not yet time to truly demonstrate its power, its strength is definitely not insignificant."
The person on the other end of the line scratched his head:
"Host, now if we put it out of the water, it's panting heavily and has trouble even jumping a couple of times, let alone jumping high!"
[Ha, is this going to be a disaster?]
Ye Yinchuan frowned, as if he had thought of something:
"Because its body is so heavy, it's very difficult for it to jump, but that doesn't mean it's weak. Just like some big, strong people in the human world, they are actually very strong, but if you ask them to climb a flight of stairs, they will be out of breath!"
"You can do that?"
The person on the other end of the line was skeptical.
"Just keep feeding it, one at a time without making a sound. When it gets fat enough and bounces back, that's when its true strength and muscle will start to show! Remember to record a video then and tag me, or send a message back to the live stream."
Ye Yinchuan said with a smile.
It takes time for Magikarp to gain muscle, go from becoming fat to losing fat and becoming muscular. It's impossible to achieve instant results in a live stream.
"Okay, streamer, if you win, I promise I'll shower you with gifts!"
Ye Yinchuan gave an OK sign to the empty promise from the person connecting with the other party, and then moved on to the next direct connection.
"Friend, this Bulbasaur of yours is not suitable for raising. Its poison-type talent is too strong, and it's constantly emitting poison powder. Otherwise, why do you think your whole family is coughing and has pneumonia? I suggest you send it to me, and I'll fix it for you..."
"You mean your serpent bear only likes to walk in straight lines and can't utilize its species' advantages? Let me see... Well, your serpent bear is congenitally cross-eyed, it can only stare straight ahead, how are you going to make it perform lightning-fast turns?"
