Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

Lin Xuan accepted the gratitude of the Little Diamond family, but still focused her attention mainly on the Little Diamond Princess at the very front.

Logically speaking, the Little Diamond family has no gender. As for why they must use a princess instead of a prince, it may be related to the legendary Diancie.

After all, although there is no distinction between genders, Diancie has very obvious feminine features in appearance.

Just like how people nowadays call Gardevoir "wife" without caring whether she actually carries a large root, perhaps people in ancient times did the same, which is why they called her "princess"!

However, this idea doesn't seem to be correct. The scientific community has never grouped small diamonds and Diancie together, and they are unaware that Diancie can actually be considered a variant of small diamonds.

Diancie, a Pokémon, hasn't appeared for many years; the last recorded appearance was several hundred years ago.

Logically speaking, even small diamonds have an extremely long lifespan, let alone Diancie, so how could it have disappeared?

Therefore, many people are constantly searching for Diancie's figure in every corner of this world.

There are quite a few people like this; various legendary Pokémon have their own followers searching for them.

That Diancie seems to have a somewhat timid and introverted personality, which might be considered a good personality in a game.

After sensing Lin Xuan's gaze, it even tried to hide behind the other small diamonds, but was eventually pushed out by the group and brought in front of Lin Xuan.

As the next leader of the Little Diamond Clan, he still needed to learn some etiquette, so the other Little Diamonds on the side were quite proactive.

That's why the Little Diamond Princess was pushed directly in front of Lin Xuan, and it was precisely because she was pushed in front of Lin Xuan that he discovered a problem—

Lin Xuan stepped forward and squatted down, looking at the small diamond fragment in front of her, while carefully communicating with it using her waveguide power—

Can I hug you?

Lin Xuan's request sounds like something only a pervert would do, right?

However, the somewhat clueless little diamond nodded directly and did not refuse.

Then Lin Xuan simply picked up the little diamond.

It has to be said that the Pokémon Little Diamond looks small, but it is actually quite heavy! Even Lin Xuan had to put in a lot of effort.

However, after Lin Xuan picked up the small diamond, she was completely certain of her doubts.

I initially thought the color change might be due to the viewing angle, but now it seems—no, the diamonds on this small diamond set subtly emit a pale pink hue.

"what happened?"

Yu Xian, who was standing nearby, also noticed Lin Xuan's strange behavior and immediately came over to take a look.

"Look, isn't the color of the diamonds in this small diamond a little off?"

"The color of diamonds—could it be due to variations in living environments? I seem to recall seeing something like this before, though it's very rare, it's definitely not unheard of."

"Huh? Have these small diamond fragments appeared before?"

Chapter 466 Riding the Dragon

Lin Xuan was a little confused for a moment. He originally thought this was a very rare situation. After all, as a transmigrator, he knew that there was indeed some relationship between Little Diamond and the legendary Diancie.

So when Lin Xuan saw the faint pink color on the little diamond, she subconsciously felt that it might be related to Diancie.

After all, Diancie is also pink, so this connection sounds quite reasonable even in a novel, right?

But unexpectedly, before Lin Xuan could even say these words, Yu Xian rejected them.

Is it normal for small diamonds to have this color?

Lin Xuan asked with some curiosity. Although he hadn't seen many small diamonds, this kind of color change was something he had never seen before.

After shaking his head, Yu Xian quickly answered Lin Xuan's question.

"It's not extremely rare, but according to records, small diamond fragments like these do appear occasionally. I saw a similar one when I was out researching before."

Yu Xian said quite calmly, "I can only say that he is indeed a top-notch breeder. He has even seen such small diamond fragments before."

"Is there anything special about these small diamonds?"

Lin Xuan put the small diamond down from her hand and then asked Yu Xian, who was not far away.

After all, a small diamond that has undergone such a change must be something extraordinary, right?

"At least I haven't seen any particularly special changes, but the little diamond I saw before was indeed a bit different. It looked more spiritual than the other little diamonds, and it also had a stronger talent in combat."

Lin Xuan thought for a moment about the fighting skills that the Little Diamond family had just displayed. Was it possible that they were only slightly stronger than normal?

However, since Yu Xian had said so, Lin Xuan naturally didn't doubt his judgment, but even so, Lin Xuan still asked:

"What about those small diamonds that were previously recorded? Were there any special ones?"

"Hmm...it doesn't seem so. Although it's slightly different from others, it's still within the normal range and there's nothing too surprising about it."

Yu Xian was a little puzzled as to why Lin Xuan was so interested in the color changes of the small diamonds, but after thinking about it for a while, he understood.

After all, Lin Xuan is a researcher, so it's normal for him to put in a little more effort in this area. He's actually a little envious of Sun Siming.

While talking to Lin Xuan about these things, Yu Xian suddenly seemed to remember something and said:

"Actually, because of the color change of the small diamond, coupled with the similarity of its life characteristics, some people thought that Diancie might be a special evolution of the small diamond, but in the end, no evidence was found. Those guys just made some associations because the small diamond's special color is pink."

Yu Xian didn't really believe in these things, since there was no evidence to prove them.

Besides, Diancie is a legendary Pokémon, so most people probably wouldn't believe that she evolved from such an ordinary Diancie.

Therefore, Yu Xian did not believe it either. So when he saw the small diamond change color just now, although he was slightly surprised, he did not have any special reaction.

Lin Xuan's reaction, however, was more interesting to him.

Hearing this, Lin Xuan's lips twitched slightly. Those people's guesses were indeed correct. Although Diancie could not be considered the evolved form of Little Diamond, it was essentially the same.

Those people's guesses were indeed accurate, but unfortunately no evidence was found. Therefore, this view was only regarded as a joke in the academic community, and no one paid any attention to it. As a result, Lin Xuan had never even heard of it before.

But precisely because Lin Xuan knew the problem with the small diamond, he still doubted whether it was really okay.

Lin Xuan stared at the small diamond he had placed on the ground for a long time, until he felt a little embarrassed by the staring.

Little Dot and Ibu on the side also cast slightly disdainful glances at Lin Xuan.

With that look and those previous actions, he could easily be seen as a creepy uncle trying to swindle little diamonds, right?

Sure enough, seemingly noticing Lin Xuan's gaze, the Little Diamond Princess herself was a little shy, but the other Little Diamonds on the side were a little unsteady.

Lin Xuan had indeed done them a favor. Without Lin Xuan, even with Garchomp's help, the battle wouldn't have been resolved so easily.

Even if Lin Xuan had done them a favor, it was impossible for him to send his princess away!

So, under Lin Xuan's watchful gaze, several small diamonds silently surrounded the princess, leaving Lin Xuan somewhat amused and exasperated.

Do these little guys really think I want to take Diancie away?

Not to mention that they don't yet know whether the little diamond's color change is just a simple mutation or an awakening that leads to Diancie, even if it is true, Lin Xuan has little intention of taking her away.

After all, while Diancie is quite strong, her strength lies more in the fact that, as a legendary Pokémon, she can also undergo Mega Evolution, just like the brother and sister next door.

This greatly increases his combat ability. Although Mega Evolution may not be the biggest boost to Diancie's strength, with its solid foundation, Diancie is definitely one of the most outstanding Mega Evolved Pokémon.

However, there is still a big difference between legendary Pokémon. For example, the Registeel that Lin Xuan encountered in the previous tournament is not the same as the original Registeel. There is a huge difference between them.

So even if it were the real Diancie, it wouldn't be able to appear with the same level of power as Reggie and Elekk. It would need time to grow. But when it comes to training Pokémon, Lin Xuan already has enough Pokémon. He's even struggling with how to train Naganadel!

I really don't have time!

So Lin Xuan only glanced at the small diamond one last time before ignoring it.

Lin Xuan, who was about to return to the ground with Yu Xian, thought for a moment and then gave a reminder:

"I think it's worth observing this small diamond; I feel there might be some secrets behind it."

Yu Xian gave Lin Xuan a strange look, then nodded.

It wasn't because he listened to Lin Xuan a lot, but mainly because he also knew Sun Siming. Although the two weren't very close, they still had some exchanges.

The last time I heard Sun Siming mention his student, he talked about Lin Xuan's somewhat terrifying sixth sense.

Many discoveries came about because Lin Xuan thought, "I think there might be a problem here," to the point that Sun Siming later began to believe in metaphysics.

After all, Arceus exists, but whether his words are effective is unknown. However, Lin Xuan's words—as they seem to be quite effective so far!

Lin Xuan originally wanted to follow Yu Xian to the ground, but Yu Xian needed to stay here for a while, saying that he needed to clean up the traces of the battle.

Indeed, although Xiaodian and his team won their match just now, and won very easily, there was a small problem—they used a little too much force.

The ground was so badly damaged that several Bulbasaur were replanting there. Fortunately, they seemed to be quite good at it, and the ground was almost completely restored in no time.

Although you can still see some traces if you look closely, it's better than nothing, right?

Lin Xuan scratched his head, then tapped the smaller child's head on the head.

"Dandan!?"

Why did you hit me?!

"Who told you to use so much force? Be gentle next time."

As Lin Xuan spoke, he prepared to go over and help Yu Xian tidy up. But Xiao Dian, who was not far away, thought that Lin Xuan was completely using and discarding a useful tool—bah! Killing a rat!

When it comes to digging holes, it's definitely best to leave it to the professionals. In no time, the rats had completely filled in the hole and even dug out some things for Lin Xuan.

"You can dig up fossils here?"

Lin Xuan looked at the fossil in his hand and couldn't help but say, "I just dug up a fossil."
