The world of hardcore Pokémon can also be very warm

Busy days always pass quickly, and more than a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

For such a long time, the intimidation potion factory has naturally started production long ago.

It's just that it's not easy to quickly open the market. In addition to more conventional business methods, such as advertising, Yang Yan often goes to publicity in person.

For example, he borrowed Chiba's golden leaf battle hall to hold some related battle activities, and even brought Gyarados to compete with others.

Sometimes, he would also use the channel of the battle hall to play videos of himself fighting with Mahuola and Rogue Crocodile during the King Ranking Battle.

Yes, Yang Yan, who had originally planned to wait until the list for the ranking battle became clearer, never thought that due to his frequent appearances, some trainers ranked below him would come to him more and more.

There is no way to refuse the invitation to play in the Ranked Battle of Heavenly Kings, and it can be postponed at most. After all, you can't fight one battle after another. It is basically impossible for a King-level Pokémon to fully recover within a few days after a full battle.

When Yang Yan was busy promoting the intimidation potion, he felt that the King Ranking Competition was also a promotional channel, so basically as long as Pokémon could compete, he would accept any one who came, and even took the initiative to challenge Hoenn's ranking in the future. The trainer of the heavenly king above him.

It would be more efficient to keep Pokémon in seclusion than to mix in battles. This is a rule of thumb.

While improving your ranking, you can also improve your own reputation, and at the same time promote intimidation potions and train Pokémon, why not?

Various things have prevented Yang Yan from having time to go back to his father's gym for nearly a year, and he basically traveled around.

As always, busy.

Fortunately, it took a year for the promotion to finally bear fruit.

Not to mention other regions, at least the local trainers in Hoenn have heard of or personally used intimidation potions.

The effect of the medicine itself is worthy of belief, so as long as it is promoted, its reputation will gradually expand, and its sales will naturally open up.

After another three months of this, the stalls in the Fengyuan area, Yangyan, were finally basically laid out, and he no longer needed to run around and be busy.

The effectiveness of the intimidation potion also gradually brought real money.

However, Yang Yan was not in a hurry to expand the scale of production, but chose to use part of it to repay the loan, and use the remaining part to expand other industries, such as opening a new fairy breeding house.

The reason why Yang Yan chose to do this was that on the one hand he felt that the current production efficiency was sufficient, and on the other hand he needed more manpower.

Not an ordinary worker, but someone who has a certain knowledge of cultivators, and is at least an apprentice of a cultivator.

Intimidation potions are similar to energy cubes, so it's worth leaving some tasks to breeders.

Expanding the Fairy Breeding House is a way to recruit people.

He didn't have time to interview new people one by one, so he had to rely on the help of the old people in the goblin training room.

In addition, he plans to build a talent transfer channel from the breeding house to the factory in the future to ensure that the breeders who join the intimidation potion factory are trustworthy.

Of course, when Yang Yan's research institute is established, the manpower in the research institute will also be converted from the manpower in the incubation room.

It may be that the recent discussion about Yang Yan in the breeder circle has never stopped due to the threat of intimidation potions or other aspects, so when the Fairy Breeding House started to openly recruit people, there were still many people who applied.

Two months later, after replenishing manpower and accumulating some funds, Yang Yan finally started a new round of expansion.

As the reputation of the intimidation potion became more and more popular, the sales volume also increased. Later, dealers from other regions who smelled the smell also came to the door, causing Yang Yan to expand the production line in advance.

However, Yang Yan knew that taking too big a step could easily lead to trouble, so in the end he only temporarily finalized a cooperation agreement with the dealer in Kanto.

First of all, as the "big brother" of each region, Kanto will definitely have better promotion results than from other regions.

In addition, Kanto has relatively many types of Pokémon with intimidating characteristics, and has a large enough market.

Although the intimidation potion is a monopoly product, Yang Yan never thought of eating it alone, because doing so would be too easy to be targeted.

Distributing a portion of profits to others and turning possible enemies into partners is the way to do business in the long term.

Of course, the production of pharmaceuticals must still be firmly in your own hands and must not be left to the hands of others. This is also a means of business survival that needs to be kept in mind.

So, another 3 months passed.

Business matters are finally on track.

Yang Yan finally had the time and funds to start building his own research institute.

Since all the equipment has been prepared by Team Plasma and the manpower has been recruited through the Goblin Breeding House, the institute only needs to build a framework and can be put into operation quickly.

Of course, Yang Yan did not forget the fossil resurrection machine he dismantled.

He set aside a separate area in the laboratory for this machine to house it and the fossil Pokémon that would be resurrected in the future.

In order to make the origin of this machine appear reasonable, Yang Yan applied for many encryption papers related to it.

Although the fossil resurrection technology has been made public, like energy cubes, it requires payment to use it, and not everyone is eligible to apply.

Of course, these are no problems for Yang Yan.

Yang Yan named his research institute "Coercion Research Institute". As the name suggests, the main research objects of the research institute are naturally the characteristics of intimidation and oppression. Moreover, this is also to better promote the Coercion Team, this new Pokémon team, in the future.

Since there is a primary one, of course there is a secondary one, and the secondary research projects are Fairy Energy Cubes and Fossil Pokémon.

It should be mentioned that Yang Yan will include the research on Axe-Splitting Mantis into the research project on fossil Pokémon.

In the past, he deliberately preserved some of the strange black stones. In the future, he can try to see if he can "grow" them again, or analyze the ingredients, or synthesize them artificially. In short, Yang Yan has never forgotten this matter. .

Although the research projects seem to be a bit too many and complicated, this is basically the case in large research institutes.

Yang Yan's positioning and pursuit of his research institute are not like Qianxia's, and his vision is not that short-sighted. Therefore, it is natural to look to the top research institutes.

Although it may be difficult to do so at first, the research institute is not a factory. Yang Yan has many seniors who can ask for advice. In addition, he is a researcher himself, so there is no problem of not knowing how to carry out the project.

Therefore, when there are no problems with funds and manpower, it is much easier to guide the research institute to slowly get on the right track than to open a factory.

Traveling between the research institute and the factory, I would go to my father's gym from time to time and ask about the business situation of the gym. Time quickly came to the end of the year.

The end of this year is the last moment before the end of this round of King Ranking Battle.

According to the original plan, this time point will be when Yang Yan hits the rankings.

However, in order to promote the intimidation potion, he moved up the ranking in advance.

And in early summer, after Magneto, Flame Chicken, and Lizard King successively broke through to the semi-champion level, Yang Yan even made great progress and pushed his ranking into the top 3.

This ranking can basically ensure that I will remain in the top 10.

Also, because the top 10 players in the upcoming reserve challenge can participate and will not be affected by the specific ranking, Yang Yan does not need to keep an eye on the rankings.

So even though he was currently in the final tense period of the King of Kings ranking battle, he was just sitting leisurely in the laboratory, studying the changes of the Slash Commander.

The Slashing Commander who just evolved from the Colt Sword Soldier!

Nearly three years have passed, and Slash Commander has undergone earth-shaking changes from a young Pokémon to such a majestic master with the style of a general.

After digesting the original power of the divine beast extracted from Darkrai, the oppressive effect of the Colt Sword Soldier at that time had already surpassed that of Magura when he was just subdued by Yang Yan.

Later, it absorbed some of Reshiram's divine beast power intermittently, and completed its evolution. Although the Slash Commander at this time was still only at the elite level, its characteristic effects were already comparable to those of Magma.

To be more precise, it was Mamaura before he absorbed the power of the divine beast.

That’s right, Yang Yan later took out the power of Latios’s divine beast origin and divided it among Marula, Absol and the Night Slayer.

On the one hand, it is to improve the characteristics and effects of the above three Pokémon, and on the other hand, it is also to collect more data.

Their attributes are different from those of Latios, which makes it easier to form a more thorough comparison.

This is also to make better use of the power of the only remaining Latias's divine beast.

However, although he had mastered a lot of research data, Yang Yan felt that the characteristic effects of his Pokémon with the oppression attribute might not have much room for improvement, and he did not want to use the power of the legendary beasts on experimental Pokémon, so he did not go any further.

Unless he can capture other Pokémon with the oppressive attribute, Yang Yan doesn't want to use the remaining power of the legendary Pokémon.

Pokémon with the oppressive trait are rare to begin with, so excluding the ones you already have, the easiest one to obtain is the Queen Bee.

However, Queen Bee is a bug-type Pokémon, and given the special positioning of Queen Bee itself, Yang Yan thinks that capturing such a Pokémon to join the team is not a particularly good choice.

"Forget it, let's consider it later. For now, it's better to continue researching replicable ways of improvement..." Yang Yan took back the Slashing Commander, searched his brows, and sighed.

That being said, Yang Yan still has no accurate direction to explore on how to do it specifically.

Obviously, this research will be an extremely long tug-of-war.

"Boom boom boom——"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Yang Yan calmed down and said, "Come in."

"Professor Oak..."

"Stop!" Yang Yan raised his hand to interrupt, "Xiao Qiu, I've told you so many times, don't call me like that, it's too distant."

That’s right, the visitor can be said to be one of Yang Yan’s closest friends, and one of the biggest contributors to helping him manage the fairy breeding house - Miyashita Aki.

Originally, Yang Yan was going to hand over the branch of the Fairy Breeding House to her, but Xiao Qiu still wanted to continue her studies as a breeder, so she applied to Yang Yan for admission to the graduate school.

Currently, she is the person in charge of the energy cube research project. Her temporary job is to connect with Qianxia Research Institute to develop research data on advanced fairy energy cubes, and at the same time help Yang Yan deal with some miscellaneous matters.

Because she works in a fairy breeding house, Xiaoqiu naturally regards the fairy system as her future specialty.

Because of Yang Yan, it was normal for her to study the fairy energy cube. After all, "the one who is close to the water gets the moon first".

"Although I said that, it's not good if others hear it. Besides, you are now my boss and my guide, and I can't be impolite." Xiao Qiu didn't really do that because of Yang Yan's words.

After working for so many years, she knows that life is life and work is work.

You must pay attention to what you should pay attention to, otherwise you may get into trouble in the future.

She did not give Yang Yan a chance to continue speaking, and continued to briefly introduce the contents of the document.

Although most of the content is repetitive with previous files, it is not something that can be easily ignored.

Then, she changed the subject and said, "By the way, the 'Fossil Zone' has been completed. Do you want to go and take a look?"

The institute has 4 research projects,

The research on the intimidation feature is currently basically connected with the factory, mainly studying how to increase production efficiency. At the same time, this is also the project team with the most manpower at present.

The sense of oppression feature is still in the exploration and money-burning stage. There are not many people and it is just getting started.

The development project of the fairy energy cube is led by a group of old employees of the training house led by Xiaoqiu, who are responsible for connecting with Chinatsu's research institute. It is just getting on track.

Different research projects belong to different divisions. Except for Yang Yan, people from a certain project are basically not allowed to go to other divisions.

The fossil zone is an exception for now.

Because fossil Pokémon require a special living environment, the fossil area was established separately. It is not connected to the current research institute area and is even quite far away from it.

In addition, fossil Pokémon will be displayed to the outside world in the future, so the relevant buildings are also different from the research areas that need to be kept confidential.

In order to ensure that there would be no problems, Yang Yan also took the time to consult other fossil research institutes.

Therefore, the construction speed there will be slower, and it was only completed in the past two days.

"I'll go take a look when I go back tonight. There's no need to go now." Yang Yan waved his hand.

Although it has been built, it is currently just an empty shell and there is actually nothing to see.

"By the way, the collected fossils do not need to be revived for the time being. Let's wait until after the New Year." Yang Yan suddenly reminded.

"So do we still need to continue purchasing fossils on the market?"

"Keep it. It won't cost much anyway. Besides, if we don't take it, other research institutes will take it. There will be fewer and fewer fossils in the future. It's always a good idea to collect more."

"As long as you're happy." Xiao Qiu didn't care. It wasn't her money that was being spent anyway.
