My Pokémon Player

Chapter 377 Natural Disaster Strikes

The reason why Ryan felt troubled was that according to his understanding of the players, once the players knew that Magikarp could evolve into a powerful Gyarados, there would be a high probability that they would set off a craze to subdue Magikarp.

After all, Gyarados is powerful. Although it doesn't look very good, it also has a kind of beauty of strength.

Since Chen Yan and others filled in the Gyarados illustration on the official website, this Pokémon has aroused widespread discussion among players. They all shouted that they must subdue a Gyarados in the next version.

Even though Chen Yan and others have been emphasizing that Gyarados is not easy to deal with, it did not dampen the enthusiasm of the players.

In this case, if the players knew that Gyarados evolved from Magikarp, they would rush to subdue Magikarp one by one.

They can't beat Gyarados, but subduing a Magikarp is easy, and they don't even need to buy a powerful fishing rod.

It is foreseeable that Magikarp will definitely become a hot favorite in Pokémon in a short time. Not only will the Magikarp in the artificial lake be salvaged by players, but the Magikarp in the Moon Viewing Lake may also be hard to escape.

Logically speaking, this should be a good thing. It can not only make players face Magikarp and change the bad habit of discriminating Pokémon at every turn, but also improve the potential of players. When Magikarp evolves into Gyarados, the strength of players will be greatly enhanced.

However, the problem lies in evolution. In the real world, it is not as easy for Magikarp to evolve into Gyarados as in the game.

In the game, you only need to catch a Magikarp close to the evolution level, put it in the first place of the team, and then change other Pokémon to defeat the opponent in the battle, and you can share the experience points.

It won't take a few battles for Magikarp to evolve into Gyarados.

If there is a learning device, the upgrade speed will be further accelerated, so the difficulty of Magikarp evolution in the game is not great.

When Ryan played games in his previous life, if he didn't choose the three water-type starter Pokémon, he would usually catch a Magikarp instead. The evolved Gyarados could be called a god pet for clearing the game.

But it's not so easy for Magikarp in the real world to evolve into Gyarados.

First of all, there is no learning device in the real world. Maybe Ryan can draw it in the future, but he can't put all his hopes on the lottery. He still has to rely on fighting to upgrade.

Secondly, although Pokémon in reality can also upgrade their levels through fighting, the experience distribution will be more reasonable. The more Pokémon contribute in the battle, the more experience they will get.

There will be no situation in the game where you only need to go on the field to share half of the experience.

So Magikarp can't get the experience of other Pokémon and can only fight by himself.

But as we all know, Magikarp before level 15 has no fighting ability. It can only use a water splash jump that has no effect. It can't participate in the battle at all and can't get experience.

Of course, there is a solution. Players can buy miniature experience candies in the store to feed Magikarp.

Although this kind of candy does not add much experience and is very expensive, the cost-effectiveness is extremely low, and it is far less cost-effective than leveling up by yourself, but as long as you are willing to spend money, it is enough to feed Magikarp to level 15.

But even if Magikarp reaches level 15 and learns [Impact], it is difficult for it to defeat its opponent. At most, it can beat its own kind and the Ugly Fish with the same problem.

This also leads to the extremely slow leveling speed of Magikarp. In addition, the micro experience candy has little effect on Pokémon above level 15, so it is still difficult for Magikarp to reach level 20.

Unless, players can capture a Magikarp close to the evolution level like Bubble Teapot.

And this is the last problem that cannot be solved. Magikarp with high levels in the wild are very rare.

Although there seem to be a lot of Gyarados in the sea, they are all the best among countless Magikarp.

With such a large base, it is not easy to find a Magikarp of level 18 or 19, close to evolution.

In short, although Ryan didn't want to admit it, Pokémon like Magikarp and Uzumaki are not suitable for players to capture now.

After they evolve, they can be reborn and become a powerful helper for players, but they will also drag down the development speed of players before they evolve.

Xu Ruofeng is a living example. As one of the old five, his original strength ranked among the top two players.

Since he captured Uzumaki, his strength ranking among players has been declining, and now he is almost caught up by the second batch of internal test players.

Oh no, to be precise, someone has already caught up with him.

After Zaliang Guoba captured Morubek, his overall strength is stronger than Xu Ruofeng, so Zaliang Guoba has the upper hand in these quarrels.

There is no way, who made Xu Ruofeng lack confidence.

Even the original five people will be dragged down by Pokémon like Magikarp and Uzumaki, not to mention new players.

Old players can still have the opportunity to try and make mistakes. If they really can't do it, they can still raise Magikarp as an ornamental fish, which doesn't consume many resources anyway.

But new players can't do that. They don't have many channels to earn Pokémon Coins in the early stage. They finally save money to buy a Poké Ball, but they use it to capture Magikarp. It would be strange if their development speed is not slowed down!

Ryan naturally doesn't want players to waste time on Magikarp. It's better to improve their strength and directly capture the evolved Gyarados.

This is also the important reason why Ryan has not told players that Magikarp can evolve into Gyarados.

If Bubble Teapot hadn't captured a Magikarp that was about to evolve, he would still hide it from the players until the players found out themselves, or until he drew a learning device.

But seeing that Bubble Teapot's Magikarp was about to evolve, Ryan knew that he couldn't keep it a secret any longer, so he decided to think about how to control the players' enthusiasm.

For example, he could hint to Chen Yan to write an article that reveals the difficulty of Magikarp upgrading.

Another example is to hold a few events to divert the players' attention.

Just as Ryan was thinking about a solution, Bell asked:

"Lord, my Scorchbill doesn't have strange characteristics, does it?"

Because the characteristics of the Armored Warrior are too special, players have paid attention to the characteristics of Pokémon that they had ignored before, and Bell is no exception.

Ryan retracted his thoughts after hearing this, shook his head and said:

"I don't know the characteristics of the Fire Centipede very well, but its characteristics should be beneficial to combat."

"In fact, most Pokémon's characteristics are helpful in combat, and there are very few bad characteristics, which can be almost ignored, so you don't have to worry."

To be honest, Ryan really didn't know what the characteristics of the Fire Centipede were.

Although for some reason, his memory became much stronger after crossing, and he could remember most of the Pokémon he knew in his previous life, but it was limited to basic information such as names.

For more detailed information such as characteristics, he could only recall very little.

After all, Ryan was not a battle party in his previous life, and he didn't know much about characteristics.

He could remember the characteristics of the armored warrior because this characteristic was quite special.

Except for the relatively rare characteristics such as "slow start", "lazy" and "weak", it was difficult for him to recall the characteristics of other Pokémon.

But this can't be blamed on him. In his previous life, the official Pokémon introduced hundreds of characteristics. Who can remember them completely?

Not to mention that most Pokémon have two or three characteristics, which are divided into common characteristics and hidden characteristics.

Except for a small number of players who know Pokémon like the back of their hands, few people can remember the corresponding characteristics of each Pokémon.

Unfortunately, Ryan is not in this small group, so he is not being mysterious, he really can't answer!

Fortunately, Ryan has revealed to the players before that he is not omniscient and there are things he doesn't understand about Pokémon.

So after listening to Ryan's answer, Lingdang didn't think there was anything wrong, but instead breathed a sigh of relief:

"It's okay, as long as it's not a bad characteristic, I will slowly explore the characteristics of the Fire Centipede myself."

"That's right, instead of asking others, it's better to explore it yourself. In this process, you will also establish an unbreakable bond with the Fire Centipede!"

Ryan said righteously.

Exploring the unknown is also a great pleasure of the game. I am considering this for the players, not because he can't remember the characteristics!

"I know, I will work hard!"

Lingdang clenched her pink fist and said confidently.

Ryan nodded with satisfaction. Not bad, not bad, really good. Ahem, really teachable.

Speaking of which, Xiyue's luck is really unreasonable.

The probability of hatching a desired Pokémon from a Pokémon egg is low, and Lingling's unique aesthetics make it even more difficult.

But Xiyue still chose the most suitable Pokémon egg for Lingling.

The Fire Centipede not only meets Lingling's aesthetics, but also has a strong power after evolution. The key is that it can make up for the shortcomings of Lingling's lineup.

The first two Pokémon of Lingling are both insect and poison attributes. According to her preferences, it is estimated that the Pokémon she will capture in the future will also be related to these two attributes.

Pokémon with poison attributes are very disgusting in battle, but they have a nemesis like steel attributes.

Before Ryan draws out a new move learning device, Lingling is bound to be defeated by steel attribute Pokémon.

Even if there is a new move learning device in the future, steel attribute trainers will become her victims.

The existence of the Burning Centipede can greatly make up for the shortcomings of Bell's lineup, at least giving her the ability to counter Steel-attribute Pokémon.

"I thought Bell asked for so much, it would be good enough if this red Pokémon egg could hatch a Centipede, but who would have thought that it would hatch a Burning Centipede. Although they are both Centipede-type Pokémon, there is still a certain gap between the two."

Ryan muttered to himself, not to mention the attributes, just from the perspective of racial value, the Burning Centipede has higher potential than the Centipede.

Although the distribution of the racial value of the Burning Centipede is a bit poor, it is in the game. The battle in the real world does not pay as much attention to the speed of attack as in the game. The speed of attack is lower, as long as it can resist and fight.

"I don't know if Xiyue's luck can be used to find Dragonite. The Firefly has been wandering around the sea for five days. We have also been to Qingju Island, but there is still no trace of Dragonite. Have they really given up on Dratini?"

"No, we can't wander around aimlessly like this anymore. If we still can't find Dragonite in this sea area, then I'll let Xiyue point us in a random direction!"

Ryan made up his mind. Since he had no clue, he might as well put his hope on metaphysics.

If they can't find Dragonite with Xiyue's luck, then they can only return.

As the lord of three towns, it is impossible for him to wander around the sea all the time.

So when Ryan still found nothing after wandering around this sea area, he asked Xiyue to point out the direction for the Firefly.

Although Xiyue kept emphasizing that her luck was not that exaggerated, she couldn't beat Ryan in the end and pointed in a direction based on her feeling.

Ryan said nothing and directly ordered the Firefly to sail in the direction Xiyue pointed.

——

The next morning, the sailors on the Firefly were lazily basking in the sun on the deck.

The sailors adopted a shift work system. They were divided into several groups and worked in shifts under the leadership of the boatswain.

The sailors on the deck had just been replaced by other groups to rest. The heavy work made them exhausted. They lay on the deck motionless, only their mouths were not idle.

"Does anyone tell me what the purpose of our voyage is this time? There are no cargoes or guests on the ship. What are we going to do?"

One of the sailors asked puzzledly.

"Who said there are no guests? Aren't those young masters and ladies guests?" Another sailor continued.

"They are not guests, but our masters. Didn't you hear what Captain Richie said? We will work under them in the future."

"Don't say it so harshly. We are free sailors. No one can be our master. Even the nobles just hired us."

"Oh, what's the difference? Even Captain Richie has to listen to those nobles. Do you dare not listen?"

The original sailor sneered and turned to the boatswain and asked:

"Boss, do you know any inside information?"

The boatswain replied indifferently: "I am If you don't know and have no interest in finding out, don't blame me for not reminding you. This time, the employer is a noble, not a merchant. They have the power to execute us. "

"So you'd better put away your curiosity, don't ask casually, and don't offend them. If you implicate me because of your stupidity, I swear that I will make you die ugly!"

"I guess the megalodon in the sea doesn't mind giving itself a meal, right?"

After saying that, the boatswain stood up and looked at the sailors on the deck, his eyes full of warnings and threats.

He had long discovered that several sailors were dishonest and even dared to secretly discuss those female nobles.

If the nobles heard these dirty words, they would all be finished!

Even the vicious Gyarados was beaten and fled by the nobles. It was too easy to kill them.

To be honest, if he wasn't afraid of attracting the attention of the nobles, the boatswain really wanted to throw these idiots into the sea to feed the fish, so as not to be implicated by them.

Just as the boatswain wanted to continue to warn the sailors, he suddenly found that the sailors on the deck were looking at the sky above with horror.

The boatswain also realized something was wrong at this time. He swallowed his saliva and turned around stiffly like a rusted machine.

Then he took a deep breath, slowly raised his head, and saw the monster he least wanted to see.

"Damn it!"

The boatswain cursed subconsciously, his body trembled uncontrollably, and his mind was blank.

But he did not forget his duties and immediately shouted loudly:

"Everyone be alert, the natural disaster is coming!!" (End of this chapter)
