Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

"Hey!"

Dr. Yamanashi slapped his forehead, and his messy gray hair trembled. He quickly clicked on the Steelix he had just added as a friend, and typed at the fastest speed:

"Hello! Are you busy?"

Dr. Yamanashi was afraid that the other party would just appear suddenly and then disappear for a long time.

After two breaths of nervous waiting, the other party replied:

"I'm free now."

"Great!" Dr. Yamanashi pounded his fist on the table, and then stroked his white beard twice before carefully typing out the question: "What is your last point about the special conditions in the third item of your evolution theory? What does it mean that some Pokémon need Pokémon to evolve? I don't quite understand."

Of the three evolution methods, the first one, accumulating levels and accumulating energy, is the easiest to understand, and the second one, requiring evolution stones, is also very common. The third one, evolution with special requirements, is the main one.

The paper said that some Pokémon needed related props, and Dr. Yamanashi knew this, but because it required large-scale experiments and research, he did not pay attention to it.

The new theory of the so-called evolutionary magnetic field has been confirmed, that is, when Pokémon passes through this magnetic field, the genes in its body will prompt it to evolve.

But the last item, some Pokémon need Pokémon to evolve, what does this mean? Do some Pokémon need to eat other related Pokémon to evolve?

This also...

It makes so much sense.

Professor Yamanashi finished sending it, and thought in his mind which Pokémon would eat which Pokémon, which might produce unexpected results.

"Om-"

After only a few breaths, the other party responded.

Wang Jin wrote:

"The summary in the paper is not comprehensive enough. In fact, there are still some unknown methods that can promote the evolution of Pokémon, and it may be related to the trainer. But if it is Pokémon and Pokémon, my guess is that some Pokémon will form a symbiotic relationship with some Pokémon. Like certain parts of the body are connected..."

"Certain parts of the body? They are not edible..." Dr. Yamanashi pinched his beard, a little disappointed.

According to his understanding, since there is a complete food chain within Pokémon, Pokémon groups living in certain places may have eaten another kind of Pokémon day by day, completing some unknown transformations and then evolving.

The body combines with the body, and then coexists...

Dr. Yamanashi took this point to heart and typed another question:

"Excuse me, are you in the Galar region now?"

"That's right."

“Are you from here?”

"Yes."

"Then..." Dr. Yamanashi hesitated halfway through typing, but still sent it out: "I heard that the Galar region seems to be relatively closed? Everything is controlled by a powerful group... Your research will not be affected by this, right?"

In the bedroom of the group, Wang Jin was stunned when he heard this. He tilted his head and looked through the window at the garden of the Marrokomon Group Building outside, then patted his forehead and replied:

"That's why I don't have the conditions to conduct research. I'm very grateful to Dr. Yamanashi for helping me complete my conjecture."

"This..." Dr. Yamanashi couldn't help scratching his head.

"Could it be possible that this Steelix teacher might face a liquidation by the local forces in Galar? Just because he leaked his research on Pokémon evolution to the outside world?"

The more Dr. Yamanashi thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

The closure of the academic community in Galar has been going on for a long time. Galar has been a member of the Alliance for several years, but not only has it not produced any useful results, but it is also difficult to even see researchers in this area.

It's hard to find anyone with the Galar logo suffix in the comments.

"What an evil political force. I guess even the local alliance is controlled. If even academia is closed, how can the entire Pokémon world progress together?"

Dr. Yamanashi muttered to himself, feeling extremely distressed. His appearance also attracted the attention of the researchers who were conducting research not far away.

Dr. Yamanashi then quickly typed:

"We in Sinnoh sincerely invite you to come and participate in the research. If you are willing, I can apply to Sinnoh for a meeting to go to the Galar region for academic exchanges, and then I can take you away from Galar."

After this was said, Professor Yamanashi did not receive a response for a long time. Just as he was thinking about whether there was something wrong with what he said, or whether he had gone too far and attracted the attention of the Galar authorities, the Steel Crow teacher responded:

"I don't have such an idea for the time being. I study Pokémon evolution purely for interest."

Seeing this, Dr. Yamanashi hurriedly wanted to type, but then began to hesitate.

The conjecture of the evolutionary magnetic field was proposed by the other party, and he just conducted a very simple verification. It can even be said that this should have been verified by the other party a long time ago, otherwise why would he publish it?

But this Steel Crow teacher is in such a bad environment, and he cannot be seen in person. In this case, the publication of related papers, awards and funding will be hindered.

We still have to find Steelix himself.

However, Dr. Yamanashi was not sure whether the Pokémon evolution researcher had a safe environment. If he was too hasty, it might make the other person's life more difficult, which might have a counterproductive effect.

This kind of thing depends on the specific situation of the other party.

Or... you can get the other party's authorization...

Yamanashi hesitated, but still typed:

"There are many specific affiliated papers about your conjectures and research. Could you please authorize our institute to continue the research and publish related papers? I know this may be a bit redundant, but we promise that we will only mark the person who conducted the specific research at the end of the paper and will not change the paper signature."

"Um?"

Wang Jin, who was leaning on the sofa, groaned in confusion. He had not expected that Dr. Yamanashi had such academic ethics. Normally, he would at least be involved in the paper signature.

Wang Jin's original plan was to come up with his own conjecture and conduct relevant research with the help of Dr. Yamanashi who was far away in Sinnoh. After all, Dr. Yamanashi had people, money, and a place. This was beyond Wang Jin's reach.

After thinking for a moment, Wang Jin replied:

"Of course I can give you permission. My original idea was to ask for your help. As for the authorship of the paper, you just need to sign my name at the end. After all, I am just a person who came up with the idea and did not participate in the actual research. Most of the specific results were obtained by you and the researchers."

As soon as the words floated in front of Dr. Yamanashi, he quickly scanned them.

"Great!"

As soon as Dr. Yamanashi shouted, he pulled out several strands of his beard in excitement. He stood up suddenly, and the chair under his butt fell down.
