Age of Elves: I started flashing with my handheld.

But Nanfeng hopes that more of these unexpected troubles will come!

I currently have three dragons at my disposal.

On their way back, Nanfeng and Tang Zhihui arrived back at school around lunchtime, so they decided to have lunch together.

After finishing lunch and returning to his dormitory, Nanfeng quickly took out his handheld console to check its properties.

Let's first look at the attributes of the Mysterious Treasure-level Dragon Fang.

Sky Split: Dragon Fang: Increases the power of Dragon-type moves by 40%, has a 30% chance to lower the opponent's Defense when attacking with a physical attack, and is enhanced by weather-related buffs.

Weather-related increases?

Nanfeng felt that she had found the answer.

There is only one Dragon-type Pokémon that can control the weather!

The ruler of the skies! Rayquaza!

Of course, this is just Nanfeng's guess.

However, Nanfeng felt that if it really was Rayquaza's Dragon Fang, it should be a legendary Pokémon item.

Nanfeng handed the enormous treasure, the Dragon Fang, to Garchomp.

It wouldn't be right for Nanfeng to give this gift from Garchomp's mother to Teostra or Baby Tyranitar. Besides, as Nanfeng's current main Dragon-type attacker, Garchomp is the one who should absorb this Dragon Fang.

Physical attacks come with a defense-breaking effect, and all three Pokémon are exceptionally strong in physical attack, making them all suitable.

However, when it comes to the boost from weather, Garchomp has the "Rough Skin" ability, not Sand Veil, but that's not a big problem. Once it Mega Evolves, its ability will automatically become Sand Power, and it will also benefit from the boost from sandstorm weather.

In contrast, among Haxorus and Tyrannosaurus, only Tyrannosaurus's Rock type is amplified by Sandstorm weather. However, it still cannot compare to Garchomp's Sand Power.

Turning back, Nanfeng checked Flashy Tooth's panel again...

Hopefully its panel is decent; otherwise, even if it's flashy, it's just a warehouse mascot.

【Teeth (Dragon)】(Shiny)

【Level: 17】

[Ability: Mold Breaker (When a Pokémon with this ability uses a move, it can negate some of the abilities of the target, the target's allies, and its own allies.)]

Individual Values: HP (31), Attack (31), Special Attack (11), Defense (30), Special Defense (25), Speed ​​(31)

[Skills: Grab, Stare, Bite, Stop When You've Hit, Pursuit, Slash, Dragon Claw]

[Items to carry: none]

With 3V in stamina, attack, and speed, and 30 points in defense, it can barely be considered a 4V.

With only 11 points in Special Attack, it's not a big problem. Haxorus is an unconventional and extremely powerful physical attacker, so even if its Special Attack is 0, it doesn't matter.

A special defense of 25 is also acceptable.

Nanfeng is quite satisfied with Shiny Fang's IVs; his minimum requirement is a 2V stat distribution of Attack and Speed. (When I was training Fang before, I caught a bunch of Pokémon with IV Special Attack and single-digit Attack, which was incredibly frustrating.)

Garchomp, Baby Tyranitar, and Axew. With this, Nanfeng has three Dragon-type Pokémon in his lineup, just one short of forming a Dragon team that can be chosen from six.

Despite having a lot of Pokémon in his pocket now, Nanfeng is still far behind those Gym Leaders and Elite 0.7 Pokémon.

They might even breed several of the same Pokémon.

Different Pokémon have different growth traits, and different Pokémon combinations require different tactics.

If a gym leader only has one team of Pokémon, he will not stay in the gym leader position for long, because he will be figured out very quickly.

Just like when you fight the Mauville Gym, if a pure Electric-type team encounters a Ground-type team, it's like having your arms cut off before the battle, leaving you with less than one-tenth of your strength.

Therefore, while Nanfeng is still weak, he will capture some Pokémon with good potential. Besides using the strongest Pokémon to form a main team, he will keep the others as backups, building different teams to counter different opponents!

116. Re-enter the Volcano Project instance

Leveling up, day after day.

Time flies.

Time moved from October to November. In less than half a month, in reality, Nanfeng got his pilot's license and could now fly freely in non-urban areas.

A mid-term comprehensive assessment of breeding was also conducted.

It's hard to imagine that universities even have midterms. In Nanfeng's previous life, universities only had final exams; if you failed, you just had to retake them.

However, this also shows the rigorous academic standards of Qiantang University. If you fail the midterm exam at Qiantang University, you have to retake it.

The midterm exam for the animal husbandry department consisted solely of a written test. Therefore, in a class of over forty students, Nanfeng ranked tenth.

This result surprised many people.

In everyone's eyes, Nanfeng was the number one figure in the animal husbandry major. He had joined Professor Lin Jian's laboratory and was also Principal Bai's disciple, so his grades should always be number one.

But Nanfeng was already very satisfied with this result.

He spends an average of 17 hours a day on handheld consoles, and his study time is basically the same as the time he spends in the classroom.

My school is a top-tier university like Qiantang University, where academic elites congregate.

Being able to rank tenth out of more than forty people made Nanfeng feel like a genius!

If you used the time you would spend playing handheld games on your studies, getting first place would be a piece of cake.

But I'm sorry, Nanfeng has no intention of reducing his handheld gaming time!

If it weren't for the fact that leveling up all day long would be boring, and if it weren't for the need to get a breeder's license, Nanfeng should have spent all his time on the handheld console except for eating, drinking, and relieving himself.

As for what others think, Nanfeng said she doesn't care.

In the game.

Nanfeng's main Pokémon have all seen a slight increase in level.

The Blaziken, which was the main target for leveling up, reached level 47, but it was still not at the level that Nanfeng had expected to reach to challenge the Petalburg Gym.

But Nanfeng decided to take action on the Volcano Project copy.

The reason is that Garchomp evolved into Garchomp.

Blaziken doesn't have any area-of-effect (AOE) moves, so Garchomp, Gardevoir, and Steelix took turns leading the attack throughout the game.

Blaziken, equipped with an Exp. Share, gained half of the experience in the background, leveling up from LV36 to LV47. The 11 levels of experience were distributed among Garchomp, Gardevoir, and Steelix.

Garchomp reached level 49 and evolved into Garchomp at level 48.

Garchomp (Ground, Dragon)

【Level: 49】

【Characteristic: Rough Skin (When attacked by a contact move, the attacker loses some HP)】

Individual Values: HP (31), Attack (31), Special Attack (31), Defense (31), Special Defense (24), Speed ​​(31)

[Skills: Quicksand Hell, Tackle, Sand Splatter, Dragon Breath, Stomp, Bite, Slash, Double Slash, Dragon Claw, Dig, Quick Attack, Iai Slash, Might, Rock Smash, Earthquake, Sandstorm, Dragon Dance]

[Carrying Item: Dragon's Tooth]

"Pseudo-legendary Pokémon" is a term commonly used by trainers, while the official term for them is "late bloomer" Pokémon.

Late-blooming elves have a longer growth process than ordinary elves. This doesn't even include the fact that they require more experience to level up than ordinary elves.

The reason for the late development can be seen simply from the level of the last evolution.

The starter Pokémon's final evolution is generally around level 36.

As for late-blooming Pokémon, Garchomp evolves into Garchomp at level 48, which is considered early compared to other Pokémon like Dragonite, Dragonair evolves into Dragonite at level 55; Sargeras evolves into Tyranitar at level 55; and Shellder evolves into Salamence at level 50!

Once this long period of growth is over...

The late-blooming elf has completed its final evolution, and its combat power will jump to a whole new level!

The current Garchomp, without exaggeration, can take on five Garchomps of the same level!

In Petalburg Gym, the protagonist's father has a Slaking, which is too unpredictable. If you encounter a Slaking waking up and wandering around, it's easy to get wiped out.

However, Nanfeng had seen firsthand the strength of Crimson Pine, the ace of the Volcano Project, and his Fire-Breathing Camel.

Since Crimson Pine is relatively weak, let's take down Crimson Pine first, then Petalburg Gym! The cooldown for entering the Volcano Project dungeon has just refreshed.

Nanfeng manipulated the protagonist to arrive at Chimney Mountain.

[Enter the "Volcano Project" instance (Special reward for first-time completion)]

Recommended entry level for this dungeon: 45

The recommended level is 45.

South Wind chose to enter.

The scenery before them changed, and the south wind once again set foot on Chimney Mountain.

The strong smell of sulfur assaulted the nostrils, and the black smoke billowed like battlefield smoke, while the heat waves from Chimney Hill rolled in like huge waves.

All around, Team Magma and Team Aqua are locked in fierce combat.

[Dungeon Objective: Defeat Crimson Pine, leader of the Fire Rock Team, and prevent the Volcano Project from being implemented]

[Instance Duration: 60 minutes]

Having gained experience from entering the dungeon for the first time, Nanfeng immediately located the direction where he had seen the Crimson Flame Pine before.

Head towards the summit of Chimney Mountain.

I had only taken two steps when I heard shouts from Team Magma.

"There's another member of the Aqua Team there!"

"But he wasn't wearing the Aquadron uniform!"

"Take him down! Take down anyone who isn't wearing a 940 Fireball Team uniform!"

"I feel like I've heard that before..." Nanfeng muttered.

Approaching from the front was a large, level 32 wolfhound.

A dungeon is a dungeon; the dialogue and the strength of the spirits remain unchanged.

"Blaziken, clear the way!" Nanfeng casually tossed out a Poké Ball, his pace not slowing down in the slightest.

Blaziken leaped out of its Poké Ball, its powerful legs stomping the ground, and in the blink of an eye, a red streak flashed across Mt. Chimney.

"Awoo~~~" Before the big wolfhound could even see its opponent, it felt its body being lifted into the air and then crashing heavily into the distance.

This is just the first one, but not the last.

Southwind kept walking forward, while Blaziken took the lead and kicked away all the Pokémon blocking its way, not even sparing the Team Aqua Pokémon.

It's clear that Blaziken is holding back a lot of anger.

To this, Nanfeng can only say, well done!

The Pokémon that defeats Team Aqua members also gain experience.

The monsters here are all level 30 or higher, so you can gain experience much faster than in group battles outside.

After walking for a few minutes, a defeated opponent suddenly appeared in front of Nanfeng.

"Who are you, daring to attack a member of Team Magma!"

117. Re-entering Fire Village, annihilating it in 10 seconds.

[Trigger BOSS Battle: VS Team Magma Executive "Himura" (Defeat him to receive additional rewards)]

Fire Village, accompanied by a Black Luluga, blocked their path.

Nanfeng didn't waste any more words with him.

Blaziken, Double Kick!

Blaziken moves with its feet, its body springing forward, its crimson body moving as if a raging fire were rushing towards you.

"It seems you're determined to go against Team Magma!" A hint of anger flashed in Himura's eyes, but more so, caution.

He had witnessed the Blaziken's arrogant behavior, and his assessment of the Blaziken's strength was simply: very strong, invincible!

"Smoke!" Himura immediately gave the order.
