Chapter 345 Cotton Ball Evolves into Whimsicott! Crystal Sunstone and Miss Skirt!
Chapter 345 Cotton Ball Evolution... Whimsicott! Crystal Sunstone and Miss Skirt!
Ye Yinchuan released the crocodile and the small saw-toothed crocodile. After all, he wasn't some kind of demon. He just wanted to teach them a lesson because he didn't like their behavior.
Two Pokémon, one big and one small, plunged into the water without even glancing back at Milotic, which was lurking in the water...
Although they were all in the water, you could still vaguely sense that they were sweating slightly, and their eyes showed fear and apprehension.
At this moment, Feraligatr was certain that all the Pokémon around him were led by this human and respected him.
So, what I had previously thought was that if things went wrong, I could escape into the water and return to my home turf, unafraid of the opponent's thoughts...
That's very naive.
After all, the opponent's lineup also includes Milotic, a Water-type Pokémon that looks incredibly powerful just by its gorgeous appearance!
Even if we get to the water, it's not certain whose territory it will be!
As for the lily root doll, after our brief interaction, it seemed to be getting along well with the cotton ball.
Ye Yinchuan felt that he didn't even need to put in much effort; the cotton ball could be easily lured away by the lily root doll.
However, judging from the babbling of the lily root doll, it seems to be taking them somewhere to repay their kindness in rescuing and protecting them.
Ye Yinchuan explained the situation to the audience.
[Oh? A story about helping a wild Pokémon, and then the Pokémon wanting to repay the favor?]
[I heard that someone rescued a wild Gardevoir. After returning home, they would find a bowl of porridge mysteriously appearing in the kitchen every day. Until one day, they woke up early and saw Gardevoir in their kitchen, with its back to them, fiddling with something...]
[Upstairs, what about downstairs?]
[Could this be the story of the male Gardevoir carelessly eating the porridge?]
[Pah! Pah! Pah! It sounds like Gardevoir porridge made with its large rhizomes, it's especially nutritious...]
[No? Gardevoir, large rhizome, is that right?]
[Isn't the large rhizome just a type of carrier that the streamer talked about? What's wrong with that?]
Seeing the discussion in the live chat, Ye Yinchuan's expression was unpredictable and quite subtle.
"...You guys are something else."
Ye Yinchuan muttered something and then didn't continue, afraid that his live stream would be banned later.
Led by Lilyroot and Cotton Ball, Ye Yinchuan rode his Motolizard, leading the other Pokémon behind.
Before long, the Lily Root Doll arrived at a place with more lush vegetation and sparser crystal forest, where there were even more Lily Root Dolls...
What's even more eye-catching is the Grass-type Pokémon that the Lilyroot Dolls surround—a slightly taller, graceful creature...
[Could this one be Miss Skirt?]
[Miss Skirt? I've heard that evolving her is very difficult, and it's rare to see one in the wild!]
[It's said that it requires a precious Sun Stone to evolve, but to be honest, Miss Skirt is really beautiful!]
[If you didn't know better, you'd think it had fairy attributes!]
Many viewers recognized the Grass-type Pokémon, but it was clearly a relatively rare evolved form.
Ye Yinchuan knew very well that Miss Skirt was the evolved form of Lily Root Doll, and the condition for evolution was that after reaching a certain level, using the Sun Stone would give a chance to complete the evolution!
Miss Skirt's image is indeed gentle, beautiful, and charming.
While maintaining the harmless style of the Lily Root Doll, there are more changes in human form and details.
It's like a princess in a dress, wearing a bright red headdress that looks like a blooming flower. The petals have white markings, and the stamens look like a crown, made of golden filaments and red stamens. It's a perfect natural creation.
Miss Skirt's hair, arms, and fluffy skirt are all made of leaves, perfectly fitting its identity as a Grass-type Pokémon. Its feet look like boots, but they are actually golden sepals...
If you look closely, it seems there are three, or even more, feet.
[So beautiful...]
[By the way, host, let me ask you something: Miss Skirt isn't like Gardevoir, she doesn't have a male, right?]
Does anyone else think that Miss Skirt and Sweet Wuni are similar in some ways?
"Don't worry, we haven't found any male Squirrel yet, so you can rest assured. As for Slimie, it's a Grass-type Pokémon, almost humanoid, so it's normal for them to look a bit similar."
Ye Yinchuan admired Miss Skirt's demeanor while also interacting with the comments section.
At this moment, Miss Skirt was taken aback when she saw the lily root doll and Ye Yinchuan and his group behind it.
Ye Yinchuan read the child's mind and realized that the lily root doll had run off to play by itself, and Miss Skirt was just about to go out to look for it when it returned first.
"Looks harmless, but who would have thought she's the most audacious among this group of lily-root dolls?"
Ye Yinchuan then noticed that the lily root doll's personality was surprisingly bold...
The lily root doll hopped and skipped forward, leading the cotton ball to Miss Skirt. It then babbled and babbled, probably explaining to Miss Skirt that it had encountered danger and that Ye Yinchuan and his group had helped it.
Miss Skirt looked at Ye Yinchuan and his Pokémon, nodded amicably, then turned and walked towards a clump of grass behind her...
After a while, Miss Skirt came to Ye Yinchuan with a crystal shaped like the sun in her hand...
Ye Yinchuan's pupils contracted when he saw what was in Qun'er's hand.
This crystal looks a lot like a sun stone, but it seems different; it's like a crystallized sun stone...
He recalled the information he had consulted before arriving at the Crystal Forest—
Someone in the Crystal Forest obtained a special crystal similar to the Fire Stone, but its effects were several times stronger and its value was astonishing!
Could it be that the one Miss Skirt is holding is a replica of that special fire stone?
Just as Miss Skirt handed the crystal to Cotton Ball, and Cotton Ball brought it to her...
Ye Yinchuan is now confirmed.
This crystal has the same effect as the Sun Stone, but its effect is several times stronger!
Of course, Ye Yinchuan didn't have the exclusive ability to appraise items...
But one thing is certain: when it came into contact with this special Sun Stone, the cotton ball emitted a glow of evolution!
As a Grass-type Pokémon, Cottonball's evolution requires contact with the Sun Stone!
The current situation is by no means a coincidence, but a stark reality!
What's going on?
[Is the streamer getting some good stuff again?]
[Can the cotton ball evolve? What's with this glow?]
The audience was caught off guard by the sudden turn of events.
Ye Yinchuan revealed a little of what he knew, and the audience finally understood.
【Huh? Dude, you just saved a lily root doll and you get this good stuff?】
[Upstairs, are you kidding me? That Mighty Crocodile is really that easy to defeat? In a game, it's like taking down a high-level boss, the rewards would be better, right?]
So what exactly can the cotton ball evolve into?
At this point, the audience still had many questions.
Ye Yinchuan's feelings were rather complicated.
In fact, he was also looking forward to Cotton Ball's evolution, but he hadn't had time to get the Sun Stone, which is a relatively rare evolution stone...
They are expensive and rarely available; they are often sold out as soon as they are put on the shelves.
Especially in this world, having evolution stones doesn't guarantee evolution; there's a certain probability of failure, which to some extent increases the consumption of evolution stones.
Currently, it is widely believed that the Sun Stone can evolve many Grass-type Pokémon, not just Sunflower, Gloom, and Lilligant.
On the contrary, according to the game's setting, the Umbrella Lizard, which can be evolved using the Sun Stone, is unknown.
Gloom and Cotton Ball also didn't know that the Sun Stone could promote evolution.
"You might not know what kind of Pokémon Cotton Ball can evolve into... but you've most likely heard of it. Have you heard of the legend of Whimsicott?"
Seeing that the cotton ball was about to evolve, Ye Yinchuan knew that it was time for him to reveal his true colors.
Whimsicott? I've heard it's a special Pokémon; almost no one has ever seen it. Even if you lock the door tightly, it's still possible for it to sneak in...
【Oh, I think I've heard that too. Where wind sprites have infiltrated, they leave behind white furballs, and they hide your important things...】
[It's probably a Dark-type Pokémon. I think it's said to love playing pranks, and sometimes you can hear it giggling, but you can never see it!]
[No, no, my grandpa said he saw a wind sprite, a little devil that looked like a sheep and had black skin... But what does that have to do with the cotton ball? The cotton ball is practically an angel!]
Seeing the discussions in the comments and some rumors about the Wind Fairy, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but chuckle.
As expected, people's understanding of the wind spirits differed greatly from their own.
"Let me put it this way: the evolution of the cotton ball is Whimsicott. And those legendary Whimsicotts, those creatures that sneak into houses to play pranks, appearing and disappearing without a trace, are indeed Whimsicotts."
Ye Yinchuan made a judgment directly.
On this point, he really had nothing to hesitate about or be unsure about.
[I'm a long-time fan, and I have to say, while this streamer, this little cotton ball, does good deeds, she's also done her fair share of pranks. She looks like an angel, but she's actually a bit mischievous!]
[Haha, I remember the streamer saying that he put numbing powder in his toothpaste with cotton balls!]
[Yes, I saw Cotton Ball secretly touching Crimson Roaring Tiger's butt last time, and pretending he didn't know anything!]
Speaking of which, doesn't the kapok ball look a bit like a sheep? Especially the cotton on its body, doesn't it look like wool?
At this moment, under Ye Yinchuan's guidance, some viewers also connected the similarities between the cotton ball and the wind fairy.
This makes many people realize some similarities between the cotton ball and the wind fairy.
[So, if the streamer's cotton ball evolves, we'll have a chance to see what Whimsicott looks like?]
[Haha, look forward to it! I'm in a hurry, waiting online!]
At this moment, seeing the evolutionary light emanating from the cotton ball, Ye Yinchuan didn't hesitate to put the special sun stone back into the cotton ball's arms, letting it rub against it, get close to it, and absorb its energy...
"Currently, it seems there's no specific name for this special evolution stone, so I'll give it one today..."
Since it originates from the Crystal Forest, its functions and uses are similar, just an enhanced version, and it has a unique crystal shape...
How about we call it the Crystal Sunstone?
Is this name a bit too long?
[I think it's a good fit; it's very apt and indicates the place of origin.]
【Excellent, I support it!】
Ye Yinchuan named it to distinguish it from ordinary sun stones, so that it could be easily identified when encountered in the future. This also served as a precedent and reference for others.
Why not call it "Sun Crystal"? Isn't that simpler?
[I remember the streamer encountered something called Thunder Crystal during a previous livestream, right?]
【You've got the upstairs address wrong, it's the Crystal of Thunder!】
The discussion about the name was rather nonsensical, and Ye Yinchuan ignored it.
As the cotton ball came into contact with the Crystal Sunstone, energy began to flow within it, and the evolutionary light emanating from the cotton ball grew stronger and stronger…
"It seems we'll be able to evolve soon!"
As the saying goes, "You can search high and low without finding it, but then it comes to you effortlessly."
Ye Yinchuan originally intended to specifically hunt for the Sun Stone, and perhaps even more...
But now, it saves a lot of effort.
[It's not working, it still won't evolve...]
Are we just going to wait like this?
Although the Crystal Sunstone continuously provides the energy needed for the Cotton Ball's evolution, evolution is a leap in the level of life, and sometimes it cannot be rushed.
After a moment's thought, Ye Yinchuan sent out the Sun Rock. He hadn't forgotten that the Sun Rock could also play a similar role to the Sun Stone. Not long ago, the Shiny Umbrella Lizard evolved directly into the Electric Umbrella Lizard thanks to the linkage generated by the Sun Rock.
So, the theory holds true, and practice begins.
Sun Rock should also help Cotton Ball evolve, and maybe it can help it take that final step!
"..."
When the Sun Rock first emerged, it was expressionless, like a emotionless machine, but it quickly sensed the solar energy emanating from the Crystal Sun Stone…
A glint flashed in his eyes, and he instantly became full of energy.
Without Ye Yinchuan issuing any additional commands, the Sun Rock began to rotate on its own, just like during the collaboration with the Umbrella Electric Lizard, scattering dazzling light like the sun...
As the solar rock released its energy, the crystalline sunstone trembled as if in resonance, drawing in even more energy...
The cotton ball located at the energy center also radiated a dazzling and intense evolutionary light, merging with it...
Evolution has begun!
Although the light was dazzling, Ye Yinchuan, with his discerning eye for treasures, possessed exceptional eyesight and was able to see clearly the changes in the shape of the cotton ball even under such strong light...
Its body has undoubtedly grown much larger, although the final result is still quite small, only the down, or rather the cotton, on its body is very fluffy.
The parts that were originally green and resembled sheep's ears became hard and shaped, transforming into curved sheep horns...
Originally a spherical body, it stretched out, transforming into a little elf-like body, with a cotton band around its neck like a scarf...
Originally, you couldn't see the mouth, only a pair of eyes. But now, you can see a wide-open mouth, revealing a mischievous smile.
Although it was somewhat difficult to see clearly in the bright light, one could still sense the mischievous charm hidden beneath the cuteness!
