Kanto College of the Elves

"Although this machine has just been launched on the market, many breeding houses have already begun to use it to determine the qualifications of newborn Pokémon." Taiyi introduced.

Kojiro was very curious, how could a machine that detects energy values ​​be used to test the qualifications of Pokémon, and this energy value was calculated from newly born Pokémon.

"I have some ideas about this." Bai introduced.

"My family is actually involved in the development of energy detectors, and their main responsibility is to provide elf eggs that are about to be born."

"Actually, this energy value cannot be regarded as a statistical average, and they found that the energy gap of many Pokémon is basically the same after birth."

"As for those Pokémon with higher energy values, both parents have reached a certain level of strength."

"Pokémon with values ​​lower than this are mostly caused by the harsh environment in which the eggs were placed before hatching."

After hearing Shiro's explanation, Kojiro understood.

"The stronger the parents are, the more skills they can pass on to their offspring. It is a good method to judge the strength of a Pokmon's parents through its energy value, so as to determine its talent."

"Okay, let's go back and prepare for training. Since everyone is preparing to participate in the beauty pageant, we must prepare well." Tai Dao said.

Chi Ren scratched his head, frowned and asked: "The little duck-billed dragon and I just went to join in the fun. Besides, I don't know how to prepare for this kind of beauty contest, so I'd better focus on increasing the energy value of the little duck-billed dragon.

"

Taiyi waved his finger, "You are thinking too simply. This beauty pageant is not just about appearance."

"Yes, you will have to fight later. As long as you can highlight the power of your skills, there is no problem in passing the preliminary round." Kojiro encouraged.

"And after this beauty pageant, there will be a midterm exam about twenty days later. Use the beauty pageant to test your strength and predict your chances of passing the midterm exam." Taidao.

"How do you predict this?" Chi Ren was confused. A beauty contest is also related to the midterm exam.

"This competition involves the participation of the student union, and a large part of the midterm exams for the lower grades are set by seniors who are interested in working in the league," Bai said.

"And the exams have ranking scores. This beauty contest will attract most first-year students to participate. The ranking in the beauty contest is not much different from the ranking in the midterm exam." Taidao.

"I heard from my elder brother that the reason why this competition is held every year before the midterm exam is to inspire freshmen to work hard to train their Pokémon," Ashin said.

"Isn't it the obligation of every trainer to train Pokémon? Do you need encouragement from others?" Chiren asked curiously.

"The living environment is much better now, and the risk of traveling has dropped a lot. It will no longer happen that you neglect training and die while traveling." Taidao.

"In the past two years, the alliance has cleared away the vicious Pokémon on the main roads, and used the bonuses from regional conferences to encourage a large number of trainers to travel."

"Pokémon that live near the roads are subdued by passers-by as soon as their strength improves. It can be said that it is difficult for you to meet a good Pokémon in the wild now," Kojiro said.

"How do you know, Kojiro?" Chiren asked curiously.

"My grandfather was in charge of road clearance. Before school started, I followed him. In two months, there were only three dangerous situations." Kojiro said.

"Tell me about it?" Ashin has always been curious about this kind of story.

"The marsupials in the wild wilderness area, Nidoking and Nidoqueen in the Viridian Forest, and the rumble rock group on an unknown mountain."

"The most dangerous thing was the group of rumbling rocks. It was like a landslide, rolling down the mountain. Fortunately, I was smart enough to hide in the cave, otherwise I would have turned into a pile of meat."

"Right now, the most dangerous one is probably the Stingylus. Although the Stinging Bee is generally not fatal, the venom on its sting can cause intense pain to people."

"Forget about that taste."

Kojiro looked like he couldn't bear to look back on the past. Thinking of the sting of the giant needle bee, the corner of his mouth twitched unconsciously.

"If there are enough stinging bees, the combined toxins from their stings can be fatal," Bai said.

"That's right, it was when I followed the ranger to clear out the swarm of stilt bees that I first learned about the power of the stilt bees." Kojiro nodded in agreement.

"The Giant Needle Bee is so powerful, I think today's little duck-billed dragon can defeat a Giant Stitch Wasp." Chi Ren said disapprovingly.

"You said it was a giant needle bee. Do you know how many unicorn bees, iron-shelled insects and giant needle bees there are in the forest?" Ashin asked.

"I've been into the forest and encountered giant needle bees. Seven or eight of them flying towards you at once are quite intimidating."

"In the end, I asked Vulpix to use a flame vortex to scare them away." Blazing Man said.

"The giant sting bee reproduces quickly and has a short growth cycle. If it is not collected regularly, it will probably cover the sky and the sun in one year." Taidao.

"Yes, green caterpillars and unicorn caterpillars usually grow into usable combat power within a month. However, compared to green caterpillars, unicorn caterpillars have no economic value, so they can easily overrun the forest," Bai said.

"What is the value of the green caterpillar?" Kojiro asked curiously.

Ashin raised his hand excitedly, "I know this. Insect Pokémon are rich in protein. Studies have shown that compared with ancient bird Pokémon, the physical fitness of trainers raised with elf food has dropped a lot."

Just like before Pibi Bird was tamed by Xiaozhi, it looked like a raptor when fighting the green caterpillars. After being tamed, it looked like a domestic bird when fighting.

"In order to restore the combat effectiveness of the bird Pokémon, after research by researchers, the green caterpillar was unfortunately targeted." Bai Nan said with a cold sense of humor.

"What's even more unfortunate is that after research, researchers discovered that the... products brought by this green caterpillar are also suitable for fighting Pokémon."

"From now on, the green caterpillar can simply be described as having a miserable life."

"Why can't the unicorn beetle work?" Chi Ren was curious.

"Because the one-horned beetle is poisonous, it is troublesome to deal with. Moreover, the social structure and temperament of the two Pokémon are different, which makes the giant sting bee more united than the bad butterfly and protect its offspring better."

"To sum up, in one word, it's troublesome."
