"What is the requirement for a flowing water environment?"
Zifeiyu stared wide-eyed and frowned, pondering the meaning of these words.
At the same time, he took out his phone, searched, and read aloud:
"Goldfish love to swim in rivers or ponds, so it's recommended to keep them in a larger pond. If kept in a fish tank, there's a certain risk of them overpopulating!"
After reading it, he looked at the camera:
"Host, is this what you mean?"
Ye Yinchuan nodded.
This information can be found online; it's not some obscure fact.
"I had seen this claim before, so I specifically chose a thicker aquarium. But I didn't expect that even such thick glass couldn't withstand the impact from the goldfish..."
Zifeiyu recalled how confidently he had just made his vow.
And he arrogantly believed that the streamer's understanding of fish Pokémon was inferior to his own.
His face flushed red and then turned purple, he was extremely ashamed.
"Because goldfish are not suitable for keeping in aquariums. No matter how thick the glass of the aquarium you buy is, it is designed for king koi and of course it cannot withstand the impact of goldfish."
Despite their beautiful and elegant appearance, goldfish have fins that are as muscular as muscles, allowing them to swim upstream at a considerable speed, even in fast-flowing rivers.
Even during the spring spawning season, wild goldfish will climb waterfalls and swim upstream.
Ye Yinchuan was also explaining things to the audience while looking at the materials at hand.
Although he squeezed in time to learn about Pokémon.
But since they don't have a photographic memory, it's impossible for them to remember everything.
Many times, it's still necessary to open a book.
"Oh, so I made a silly mistake? Goldfish can't be kept in an aquarium at all? I thought most of my experience with keeping koi fish could be applied to goldfish, but it seems I was completely wrong!"
Zifeiyu was somewhat depressed.
The ground is still covered in water and broken glass; it will take him a long time to clean it up.
I reckon I'll get a scolding when my mom gets back.
How to care for the goldfish afterward remains a big question.
Fortunately, the goldfish exploded in front of me, so I was able to handle and move them in time.
Otherwise, you wouldn't even know when your goldfish died at home.
As someone who prides myself on loving fish-themed Pokémon.
It's hard for someone who isn't a fish to imagine what would happen if such a thing actually occurred.
How much self-blame and how devastated he must have felt.
"Hmm... keeping it in an aquarium isn't a bad idea. At least, your aquarium is a bit too small."
In addition, you need to install a water pump. As long as the space is a little big enough to make the water flow, you can simulate a flowing water environment for the goldfish.
Of course, if you have a large pond, or even a pool, specifically for raising goldfish, they will be even happier.
Upon hearing what Ye Yinchuan said, Zi Feiyu's eyes lit up:
"So, the key is to get the water flowing?"
"Yes, that's the nature of goldfish; they need a flowing water environment. Otherwise, they will feel uncomfortable, and this discomfort will lead to anxiety."
Over time, even if the tank doesn't explode, it can still seriously harm their physical and mental health.
Your loud voice just now really upset the goldfish, causing it to break through the glass.
"I'm so sorry, host. I shouldn't have been so arrogant and presumptuous, saying those things to you. Even though I offended you, you were so magnanimous in giving me guidance. I'm truly grateful!"
Zifeiyu hesitated for a moment.
I decided to formally apologize to the anchor in front of so many viewers.
"It's okay, I'm used to it..."
Ye Yinchuan smiled bitterly.
As I said before, with a large amount of traffic, all sorts of strange things will appear.
There are always a few who start arguing without even understanding the situation.
But so far, not a single one has been able to successfully jump over the wall...
Basically, the more arrogantly you jump, the harder you fall!
"I still suggest that you approach learning about Pokémon with a humble attitude, be meticulous, and not just skim through it."
Sometimes, even a slight misunderstanding can lead to vastly different, even diametrically opposed, outcomes! Besides me, you've also let down this goldfish!
"Yes, you're absolutely right, host. I think I've realized my mistake. When I was raising Magikarp, I even did my homework for a whole month."
But when it came to raising goldfish, I only crammed for two days, thinking only of bragging to everyone that I was going to raise goldfish... My mindset changed! I really feel sorry for the goldfish.
Also, I'm really too immodest. I should learn from you, the host...
"Alright, alright, enough with the mushy stuff. Kid, go down and tidy up properly, calm down! Your goldfish is pretty good, just don't ruin it, that's all!"
With that, Ye Yinchuan disconnected the connection.
This Zifeiyu isn't that old either.
Although I was offended at first, the other party acknowledged their mistake and apologized sincerely time and time again.
He didn't take it seriously.
[It has to be a streamer—good-tempered and with a broad perspective!]
If it were me, I would have kicked him out the moment he said something offensive!
You don't understand, the streamer is doing this for the goldfish!
Seeing the last comment, Ye Yinchuan felt a little touched. There are still people who understand me!
@Spring Blossoms:
I watch streamers to learn all sorts of Pokémon knowledge. We should learn as long as we live, and maintain a deep respect for Pokémon, always exploring and seeking knowledge! (Fist bump)
Seeing the comments about spring blossoms, Ye Yinchuan smiled slightly.
This grandpa is so adorable.
"Enough with the chit-chat, let's get back to the live stream! Only serious participants are welcome; those looking for trouble or not being sincere, please don't bother. And if you do come again, don't force me to yell at you!"
I experienced the "You are not a fish" incident.
Ye Yinchuan also didn't want to encounter a similar situation again.
[User "子非鱼" has gifted a silver leaf*1!]
[Gift message: Host, here's a gift! Please, everyone in the chat, stop cursing me, and especially don't send me private messages to insult me. From now on, I'm your number one fan, your humble apprentice!]
Upon seeing this, Ye Yinchuan also said:
"Thank you, Zifeiyu, for the silver leaf! I wish your goldfish will thrive and that you won't make similar silly mistakes again!"
@Unknown Water-type Trainer:
[Host, please connect with me! I'm out in the wild and have encountered a special situation. I'd like to ask for your help! I'm absolutely sincere and won't play any tricks on you!]
Seeing this comment, Ye Yinchuan tapped it and said, "You're the one!"
[You have accepted the call request from the "Unknown Water-type Trainer"!]
[Connection successful!]
With the prompt, a connected screen appears before your eyes.
Judging from the other person's attire and the surrounding environment, Ye Yinchuan knew that what the other person said was true.
"Dude, we're really out in the wild."
"Absolutely, streamer, we don't play games. A true professional trainer, see?"
The other party showed their identification.
"Wow! That's really open!"
Ye Yinchuan's eyes lit up.
This is the second professional trainer, after Ah Chong, to come to my live stream and reveal their identity.
To be honest, Ah Chong's last live stream featured a shiny Shiny Scyther and the legendary Suicune, which brought him a huge surge in viewership.
His fan base is still growing rapidly, which is inseparable from that online connection.
Therefore, Ye Yinchuan was still somewhat looking forward to connecting with the professional trainer again.
"Host, you can just call me Agui. I've been waiting here for several days, originally planning to catch a decent-looking Poliwag or Poliwag-kun."
However, I discovered something unusual. Every time night falls, a Pokémon's roar echoes through the mountains.
As soon as this roar is heard, all the mosquito coil tadpoles and mosquito coil men drop what they are doing and gather in the direction from which the roar comes.
Could it be that a powerful Pokémon exists in these mountains?
Listening to Ah Gui's narration, Ye Yinchuan seemed to be deep in thought.
"Could it be...?"
He had a vague guess in his mind, but he wasn't quite sure.
The comments section was also buzzing with discussion—
Wow, could it be another mythical beast?
[Can it summon all Poliwag and Politoed? Could it be a Totem Pokémon?]
"So, host, I'd like to connect with you. On one hand, I want to ask you some questions, and on the other hand, I want everyone in the live stream to witness this together."
I watched your connection with Ah Chong; you're really amazing. If I could get your help, maybe I could catch a rare and powerful Pokémon like a Shiny Scyther!
"Don't worry, host, I will also pay you for the appraisal and assistance!"
Ah Gui was very straightforward and didn't beat around the bush at all; he said whatever came to mind.
"no problem."
Ye Yinchuan nodded; he liked this kind of guy.
He loves things like cooperation and win-win outcomes.
Moreover, if the situation is really as Ah Gui said.
Therefore, there must be a powerful, or rather, special, Pokémon in the place where he is now.
Even if I can't catch it, as long as I can see that Pokémon.
It can also bring enough entertainment value and traffic to your live stream!
At this moment, Ah Gui zoomed out slightly, revealing the Pokémon beside him.
There were two of them, standing on either side of Ah Gui like guards.
One of them is quite familiar, being one of the most common and classic starter Pokémon of the Water type—
Squirtle's evolved form, Wartortle!
This wasn't the first time Ye Yinchuan had seen Wartortle.
However, this was the first time I had ever gotten this close to a Wartsurugi during a live stream.
The appearance of Wartortle is not much different from that of Squirtle; their evolutionary relationship is obvious at a glance.
The color of Wartortle's skin should be a little darker than that of Squirtle, but it is still a light indigo blue.
It grew fluffy ears that looked like wings on its head.
Its tail behind it also became larger, still fluffy, but more like a cloud, or rather, a white wave.
It's clear that the Wartsurugi has two small canine teeth at the corners of its mouth, and sharp claws have grown on its forelimbs. Compared to Squirtle, it's much larger, standing a full meter tall.
These are all signs that Wartortle has become more powerful after evolving.
It is said that after evolving into Wartortle, it has a lifespan of 10,000 years, which is regarded as a characteristic of longevity.
The tail behind them will grow deeper and deeper as they get older.
But Ye Yinchuan believes...
The credibility of the claim of a "lifespan of 10,000 years" is questionable.
There may be some Wartortles with exceptionally long lifespans that haven't evolved for some reason, but that certainly doesn't represent all of them.
After all, a Pokémon's lifespan is linked to its strength.
Even if Wartortle does nothing and doesn't train at all.
In ten thousand years, even if it only eats and sleeps, it should have evolved into Blastoise!
But one thing is certain.
Those are turtle-type Pokémon, which have a unique advantage in terms of lifespan.
Compared to other Pokémon, it definitely has a much longer lifespan!
Ah Gui's other Pokémon is also a Water-type.
No wonder his username is "Unknown Water-type Trainer".
And this Pokémon is none other than Kingler.
The Giant Claw Crab evolved from the Big Claw Crab.
Before evolving, Krabby was a relatively weak Pokémon that could be found everywhere on the beach. If it couldn't find food, it would even eat sand to absorb the microorganisms and nutrients inside.
Of course, there are strong and weak among the giant crabs, and some will gradually grow stronger.
It's just that because there are so many of them, they are generally quite weak.
After all, Krabby's base stats are C-rank, which is similar to Squirtle's.
However, its potential for further growth is relatively smaller.
Therefore, many people choose a Krabby with good potential as a substitute for Squirtle.
There are naturally some people like Ah Gui who like aquatic plants and keep both types.
Evolving into a giant king crab makes it much more powerful.
It still looks like a crab, but its size will be much larger.
This individual is nearly 1.3 meters tall.
Like the giant claw crab, the giant claw crab only has a head and claws, which are red.
The number of protrusions on the giant claw crab's head has increased significantly, and it has also grown more sharp teeth in its mouth.
Its most distinctive feature, as its name suggests, is that the left pincer has become exceptionally large.
This pincer belongs to the giant king crab, its most powerful weapon.
It is said that the mighty giant crab's pincers are not only as hard as steel, but also possess a power of 10,000 horsepower.
It can easily crush any object and deliver a fatal blow to the enemy.
However, because the pliers are too heavy, it is difficult to aim at the target.
It's difficult to trap an opponent who is agile.
Furthermore, if a giant crab quickly raises its giant claws in a fight, it may be attempting to attack.
It is also very likely that this will cause them to lose their balance, become unsteady, and create a fatal flaw!
all in all.
Kingler is a Pokémon with many strengths, but also obvious weaknesses.
If they can train well and play to their strengths while avoiding their weaknesses, they will be very powerful.
However, if a trainer is only half-baked and hasn't trained and honed their skills properly, then...
Its own pincers are its biggest hindrance!
"Hey streamer, how are my two Pokémon?"
Because Ye Yinchuan is a Jianbao anchor.
So even as a professional trainer, I couldn't help but ask.
"Open the door, very open the door! You've taken very good care of these two!"
Ye Yinchuan didn't hold back his praise, giving a thumbs up.
Although both Squirtle and Kingler have an IV of B, they don't have any significant weaknesses on their stats.
Looking at the stats alone, there's nothing wrong with the personality and skills.
In terms of appearance, Ah Gui has raised them to be quite good.
Both water-type Pokémon had shiny, oily shells and bright, piercing eyes.
Although there are some scratches on the shell.
But those are precisely the medals and proof forged through rigorous training and battle!
"Did you all see that? Ah Gui's two Pokémon, although their IVs are both B-rank, are definitely not the kind of top-tier Pokémon that everyone usually looks for. But it was with these two Pokémon that he became a professional trainer."
For those family members with this aspiration, feel free to refer to this. Don't strive for perfection; as long as you train diligently, Pokémon will reward you handsomely!
After exchanging ideas with Ah Gui, Ye Yinchuan spoke with some passion.
If someone like Ah Chong had every Pokémon that was exceptionally good, it wouldn't be surprising if he became a professional trainer, and there wouldn't be any role models to speak of.
Many people would think he was just lucky.
Ah Gui, both of his Pokémon were just average, but he still became a professional trainer.
Moreover, in terms of seniority, Ah Gui is Ah Chong's senior.
[But you need money to nurture them...]
Some viewers expressed their dissatisfaction in the comments.
"Actually, I didn't become a professional trainer right after graduating from high school. I went to work in the community with my Squirtle."
Working is really tough. I've felt lost and discouraged at times. After a long period of drifting aimlessly, I suddenly woke up.
I just want to be a professional trainer. Even if I'm past the best age, even if I don't have the family resources, as long as I want to, I have the opportunity.
So I started studying and training at the same time. Every day, besides working to earn money, I trained...
Ah Gui also saw the comments and started sharing his experience.
"Of course, everyone has their own ambitions. Not everyone wants to be a professional trainer. I just realized what I wanted to pursue in life, so I went for it. Now many friends like to relax and take it easy, and I think that's also a choice, and there's nothing wrong with it."
Ah Gui said with a smile,
"I also paid a price. During that time, I didn't have time to care for my family. I missed my father's death, and my girlfriend ran off with someone else..."
Isn't this price too high? Is it worth it?
I think I'll just lie down...
As Ye Yinchuan listened to Ah Gui recount his experiences, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
As the saying goes, you can't have everything. If you want to gain something, you have to give up something else.
There is no absolute fairness in this world.
But everyone can use the cards they're dealt to make a deal with fate...
They are not even necessarily equivalent.
However, if you don't have those conditions, but still want to get something.
You have to steel yourself and try...
There are people who want both, but honestly, do they have the fate to do so?
"Let's not talk about that. Host, I'm heading inside now, and I think I'll be there around the time. It might take a little longer than expected, do you mind?"
"I don't mind. We'll encounter some wild Pokémon along the way anyway. Just show them on camera."
"Ha, that's good. Streamer, if you find any amazing Pokémon, especially a shiny Shiny Scyther, remember to let me know."
Ah Gui joked.
"Don't worry, even if I encounter a truly exceptional person, I won't let them get away so easily."
Ah, let's set off.
The surrounding environment is mountainous and forested.
However, the climate is humid with frequent rainfall, and there are many streams and puddles, making it a wetland.
Therefore, you can see quite a few Water-type Pokémon around.
Examples include mosquito coil tadpoles, mosquito coil mascots, lotus leaf peas, and pufferfish.
There are also many Grass or Bug types, such as Paras, Oddish, Bellsprout, and so on.
[Hey streamer, what Pokémon is that? It looks like a spider-like alien!]
"That's a Dribou. It's a Water/Bug-type Pokémon. They have bubbles on their heads because they can't breathe well on land. You could say astronauts... that's not wrong. But it's more like us humans wearing diving suits when we go underwater!"
Wow, that's a lotus leaf lily! Usually in the water, you can only see the lotus leaves on their heads; it's only in shallow water like this that you can see their bodies underneath... Turns out they're blue, haha, and they even look like ducks!
"This means the water quality here is very good and has not been polluted, otherwise the lotus leaf pupae would not live here."
Upo looks so silly and cute. It doesn't even have hands, so it probably won't resist if you touch it, right?
"Then you'd better be careful. If you touch the slime on Upo's body directly, it will numb you. It's very itchy and stinging, just like peeling a yam without gloves, it's really uncomfortable!"
[Got it, you want to experience what it's like to touch a yam, so you're peeling it without gloves, right?]
That's why I say those outdoor live streaming platforms have incredibly high popularity.
Just by strolling around in the wild, you can encounter many Pokémon that are rarely seen in normal times, not to mention the natural landscape, which is also worth stopping to appreciate.
Ye Yinchuan's fan base hasn't grown fast enough, and he hasn't become a huge hit, which is also related to the path he chose.
Live-streaming the identification of Pokémon is less exciting than Pokémon battles or wilderness exploration, which means that gaining followers will be slower.
What's more, among the many competitors are beautiful women dancing with Pokémon...
However, Ye Yinchuan was not discouraged. He believed that as long as he worked steadily, his fan base would eventually grow.
Besides, what if he becomes a professional trainer later on?
Ye Yinchuan might very well be able to go on a wilderness adventure and explore a new track!
obviously.
Ah, not everyone has such good fortune.
Along the way, we haven't seen any shiny variants, let alone any with high individual values.
Ah Gui even encountered several waves of attacks from wild Pokémon.
The most important one comes from the wild bass.
This Pokémon is short-tempered and aggressive. It moves along streams and hides in puddles.
Once it gets close, it will leap up and bite its target.
Its bite force is terrifying; it can leave teeth marks even on iron plates.
But Ah Gui's two Pokémon, Squirtle and Kingler, are not to be underestimated.
When faced with an attack from a savage bass, Squirtle will protect Agui.
The giant pincers crab, on the other hand, aims directly at the head of the savage bass and kills it with a single pincer strike.
The high accuracy and astonishing efficiency left Ye Yinchuan in awe.
"Host, the Savage Bass tastes really good. The red-striped ones are especially succulent; the blue-striped ones are a bit milder. Send me your address later and I'll send you two of each."
"this……"
Ye Yinchuan had never imagined what it would feel like to eat Pokémon.
Although he was unaware of it.
I've eaten the claw meat of a lobster soldier, but those are regenerable parts...
"Hey! Streamer, do you really like Pokémon and that's why you don't want to eat it? Don't worry, this kind of savage bass is vicious and often attacks humans on its own initiative."
Even professional trainers have suffered numerous bites, some even resulting in serious injury or death. And their numbers are vast, practically an infestation. These nasty Pokémon are best eaten! It's satisfying to eat them!
[Exactly, streamer, stop worrying about it. You didn't kill him, so there's no need to feel guilty.]
[The wild bass is not cute at all, so why not eat it?]
"Alright, if that's what you all say, I'll reluctantly accept it."
As Ye Yinchuan spoke, he couldn't help but swallow.
There seems to be a saying that wild bass is very delicious...
As Ah Gui continued his journey, night gradually fell in the mountains.
The sun is setting in the west.
A roar that echoed throughout the surroundings came from the depths!
"Hey streamer, you're here!"
Ah Gui became excited and quickened his pace.
"be safe."
Ye Yinchuan was also looking forward to it.
I want to know which Pokémon was making that roar.
But since it's the wild, the safety of the people and their Pokémon is always the top priority.
Wow, that sound! Is it some kind of ferocious beast?
[This feels so scary...]
[Urgent! Could it be another mythical beast?]
