Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

"Tsk tsk tsk, take a picture and show it to your senior, he'll probably like it."

While taking pictures, Song Chen explained, and Lin Xuan naturally saw the group and glared at them.

"You just wait! Don't laugh too soon!"

The next day

Why does the streamer's head look like it's been punched by someone?

[And why is the room so messy?]

I have a feeling something big happened last night!

Lin Xuan took out a mirror while live streaming. She had already covered herself up very well, hadn't she?

"Ahem, I tripped over a small rock while walking yesterday and fell, but it's nothing serious."

Lin Xuan coughed twice before speaking, but his words were clearly not very convincing, after all, he was a wave guide user, how could he be tripped up?

【? ? ? 】

Can't you come up with a better excuse for lying?

[Mr. Mimiu, are you sure this can be created by falling?]

Everyone was skeptical of Lin Xuan's words. Lin Xuan sighed. This live stream shouldn't have been started, but there was nothing he could do. It was arranged with the alliance, and Lin Xuan was to introduce the super evolution.

The league will then need Lin Xuan to make a special video.

Originally, this video should have been made and released as soon as possible, but considering that Lin Xuan still had to prepare for the competition, it was not forced. Lin Xuan only agreed to one live broadcast, so it is currently being broadcast in the league's live broadcast room.

Chapter 407 The Shame of Super Evolution

The rest of the work was actually quite simple. Lin Xuan explained the situation of the super evolution. If he had known it would be this troublesome, he wouldn't have agreed to it in the first place.

But when I wanted to back out yesterday, the league had already sent over the script and everything.

However, it was only a brief introduction. More detailed information has already been published on the alliance's official website. Even without Lin Xuan, those who want to know have already had a general understanding of it.

The League acted quite quickly, directly announcing all the Pokémon with Mega Evolution that Lin Xuan knew of—except for Mewtwo and the Latias and Totem siblings. The former probably hasn't even been born yet, and as for the latter… Lin Xuan didn't know if the League had done any related research.

It's quite possible, considering that even pseudo-legendary Pokémon like Metagross and Salamence have tried it. If the League does indeed have the Latias and Saga, they've probably tried it as well.

However, the prerequisite is not only that the League has these two Pokémon, but also that they have found their Mega Stones.

The possibility is not low, but Lin Xuan herself doesn't know whether she has actually found it.

After giving a general introduction to the concept of Mega Evolution, Lin Xuan began to introduce the Mega Evolved Pokémon.

"Charizard is currently the only known Pokémon with two Mega Evolution forms."

Lin Xuan opened the PPT sent by the league, and the opening statement featured a heavyweight figure.

【? ? ? 】

[Two types of super evolution?]

Wow, how can there be such a cool Pokémon?

[With such a heavyweight opening act, everyone else is almost embarrassed to even step onto the stage.]

It can only be said that Charizard truly deserves its title of "Rathalos Dragon." Apart from Mewtwo, only Charizard has this privilege of having two Mega Evolution forms.

"Both of Charizard's Mega Evolutions are quite powerful. We call the black evolution Mega Charizard Y and the red evolution Mega Charizard X. Their characteristics have also changed slightly compared to their original forms."

Lin Xuan tapped the screen, and instantly two different Charizard abilities appeared on the field.

【sunny?】

[Hard claws?]

What are these two characteristics anyway?

This must be the legendary treatment Arceus receives as his favorite son!

Lin Xuan laughed upon seeing this comment. "Is this his biological son? This is his biological father!"

So, are all Mega-evolved Pokémon this powerful in terms of ability?

"Ahem, of course not, for example, a certain... never mind, you'll find out later."

Lin Xuan really wanted to mention a certain Garchomp, but she had to follow the procedure and introduce the previous ones first before talking about Mega Garchomp.

Although the existence of Mega Evolution was announced before, all the specific information about these Pokémon was only released today, so most people still don't know what Lin Xuan is talking about.

"Compared to its pre-evolution form, Mega Charizard X leans towards physical attack, while Mega Charizard Y leans towards special attack, so... let's get Dragon Dance going!"

Lin Xuan said directly, "It's almost certain that Charizard before Mega Evolution is all Special Attacker and rarely learns Physical Attacker moves. But now it's different. Charizard with Hard Claws can also do Dragon Dance. The key is... how cool is X-Charizard?"

Lin Xuan only gave a brief introduction to the relevant information. After all, if he were to give a serious introduction, each super evolution form could be made into a super long video. Wouldn't Lin Xuan be exhausted after talking about it all day?

After Charizard come Venusaur and Blastoise. Although they are not as well-treated as Charizard's "father," Venusaur and Blastoise are still considered quite good.

[The only impressive feature is the Super Launcher!]

Thick layers of fat... clearly the kind of thing an old submissive would love.

Is this thing really not meant to torture people? Venusaur is even more tanky.

After all, the combination of Venusaur and Poison type is quite good, as the Thick Fat ability eliminates two weaknesses.

However, it seems to fall a little short compared to Charizard.

[It's already good enough that it has super evolution]

"Ahem, after the three starter Pokémon, let's welcome a special one. Based on the League's current understanding of Mega Evolution Pokémon, the next Pokémon can be considered to have benefited the most from Mega Evolution."

Lin Xuan coughed twice. Anyone familiar with Mega Evolution Pokémon would know who he was talking about.

[Beedrill?]

[This thing can even undergo Mega Evolution?]

It is our inescapable duty to restore the glory of the Zerg!

So what exactly can Beedrill do?

It seems the attributes haven't changed.

Lin Xuan didn't say much, but explained it in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

"Based on current research on Mega Evolution, the improvements it brings to all Pokémon are almost the same. For most Pokémon, it distributes a little across various abilities. For example, Mega Charizard Y, although it focuses on Special Attack, also has some increase in Physical Attack, which is somewhat wasteful. However... research has found that Beedrill's abilities are almost completely unaffected except for Physical Attack and Speed, making it a perfect distribution!"

But that's clearly not enough for Beedrill to uphold the glory of Bug-type Pokémon, so Lin Xuan continued:

"Furthermore, we also detected that Beedrill's special attack ability is further weakened after Mega Evolution, and compensated for by... Strength and Speed."

"Moreover—his characteristic is adaptability. The power of this characteristic is self-evident."

【? ? ? 】

[How can they even get kickbacks like this?]

[Are you forcibly diverting some points from Special Attack to Strength?]

Wow, how can there be such a cool Pokémon as Beedrill?

Beedrill's Mega Evolution is almost unique among all Pokémon.

In the following time, Lin Xuan introduced many Mega Evolution Pokémon, including heavyweights such as Mega Gengar and Mega Kangaskhan, as well as heavyweights such as Mega Steelix.

Later, before the lunch break, Lin Xuan forcibly reserved some time for a certain Pokémon.

"Here it comes, the next Pokémon we're going to talk about is even more heavyweight."

Lin Xuan rubbed his hands together as he spoke.

What Pokémon could make Mimikyu so excited?

I think it's either heavyweight or as heavy as the Steelix from earlier.

[Surely no Pokémon will suffer the same fate as Steelix, right?]

Indeed, with the power of sand unleashed, who can compare?

The live stream chat erupted in excitement when Garchomp appeared on Lin Xuan's PowerPoint presentation.

[Can pseudo-legendary characters undergo Mega Evolution?]

[Pseudo-legendary beings are already strong; what will they be like after Mega Evolution?]

[That's right, this is definitely a legendary heavyweight, maybe even the strongest of all Mega Evolved Pokémon.]

I vote for Garchomp!

"Ahem, many people might wonder why a Pokémon like Garchomp can Mega Evolve, but that's not important anymore. Here's my evaluation of Mega Garchomp—"

Lin Xuan took a deep breath!

"You should regress a bit more before trying again."

【? ? ? 】

[There's no way a Mega Garchomp could be weak, right?]
