Let you make animations and develop virtual Pokémon? Chapter 025

Real time 6 AM.

Taozi had been lying in the bushes for four full hours, her body sore and her spirit extremely listless. If it weren’t for the thought of definitely catching Pikachu, she probably would have given up long ago.

“Taozi, why don’t we just stop guarding?”

“I already slept once, woke up, and found Taozi still lying here.”

“ 66666, amazing perseverance.”

“Anyone who can watch your live stream for these few hours has truly lived a life.”

“Let’s just say, is there a possibility that no matter what, this is still a game? Do you know about the Pokémon refresh mechanism in the game? What if Pikachu despawns? Wouldn’t you have guarded for so long for nothing?”

“The Charmander next to Taozi probably feels speechless.”

Seeing comments in the bullet screen about the Pokémon refresh mechanism, Taozi actually thought it made sense.

Yeah, what if Pikachu had already despawned? What would be the point of her continuing to guard here?

Just as the thought of giving up sprouted in Taozi’s mind, suddenly, the Charmander beside her patted Taozi’s arm.

This pat instantly woke Taozi, who was half-asleep.

Could it be that Pikachu had arrived?!

Taozi carefully used her hand to push aside the leaves in front of her, fearing to make even the slightest sound. Through the gaps in the bushes, she observed the situation outside.

She saw a Pikachu slowly approach the pond from a distance, stretch out its small hand, cup the water from the pond, and drink it in small sips.

It didn’t realize that its every move was being watched by Taozi, who was hidden in the bushes far away.

Pikachu really came!

Taozi trembled with excitement.

She hoped Oddish wouldn’t mess things up!

“Pika?”

Just as Pikachu was focused on drinking water, it suddenly stopped its movements. Its nose twitched slightly, as if it smelled a particularly sweet scent.

“Pika Pika~”

What is this smell, it’s so fragrant~

Pikachu swallowed its saliva and slowly started walking in the direction the scent was coming from.

It was a deep blue “fruit” buried in the soil, with only half of it exposed. As for the five leaves on the “fruit’s” head, Pikachu had selectively ignored them.

After all, in its eyes, these leaves couldn’t be eaten.

“Pika Pika?”

Could it be a new species?

Pikachu was filled with doubt, simply because it had never seen such a “fruit” in this forest.

But, it smells so sweet and fragrant! It must be delicious!

Just as it was about to walk up and pull out the “fruit”, several crawling sounds slowly approached.

Pikachu turned around and saw three Weedle, also attracted by this sweet scent.

Seeing this, Pikachu immediately understood the Weedle’s intentions: they were here to compete with it for this “fruit”!

“Pika!!”

Pikachu immediately assumed a battle stance and let out a loud warning. It didn’t want these Weedle to snatch the “fruit” it had seen first.

However, Pikachu was, after all, outnumbered. Its warning not only failed to make the Weedle retreat but instead angered them.

The three Weedle simultaneously shot their Poison Sting at Pikachu.

The Poison Sting were incredibly sharp, their tips covered in purple poison.

Pikachu quickly leaped up, avoiding all the Poison Sting, and curled up in the air. Its whole body flashed with dazzling electric light, and a slender golden lightning bolt shot towards the Weedle!

“Zzz!!!”

The lightning accurately struck one of the Weedle, shocking it backward, with faint currents sparking on its body.

The other two Weedle exchanged glances and reacted quickly. They tacitly moved to the left and right, forming a pincer attack.

The Weedle on the left spat out a long string of String Shot at Pikachu.

Seeing this, Pikachu immediately leaped sideways, trying to dodge the String Shot.

But just then, the Weedle on the right seized the opportunity. As Pikachu jumped, it released String Shot, successfully entangling Pikachu’s body.

“Pika!!”

Pikachu felt its body suddenly tighten. It wanted to break free, but the string became tighter and tighter.

At the same time, the Weedle that had been shocked backward by Pikachu earlier got up and began to spit String Shot along with the other two Weedle.

In this way, Pikachu was quickly tightly wrapped by the three Weedle working together with String Shot.

“Pika! Pikachu!”

Pikachu struggled frantically on the ground, its whole body constantly flashing with dazzling electric light, but it still couldn’t break free from the thick cocoon on its body.

Just as the three Weedle were about to use Poison Sting to attack, there was a commotion from the bushes not far away. Taozi and Charmander simultaneously leaped out of the bushes!

“It’s our turn to shine! Charmander, use Ember repeatedly!”

Following Taozi’s command, Charmander immediately opened its mouth, spitting out three blazing flames that flew directly towards the three Weedle.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Before any of the Weedle could react, the three flames hit their marks repeatedly, easily achieving a one-shot knockout.

After completing this attack, Charmander flicked its tail in satisfaction.

“Charmander, well done.”

Taozi first offered encouragement, then rubbed her somewhat sore shoulders, and stretched her body slightly.

These few hours of waiting had been torture for her, but thankfully, it ultimately succeeded.

And Pikachu was stunned the moment it saw Taozi.

Isn’t this the human who wanted to catch me before? I didn’t expect it to be her who saved me.

A touch of gratitude couldn’t help but rise in Pikachu’s heart.

“Pikachu, I’ve finally waited for you. Be my Pokémon obediently.” A joyful smile appeared on Taozi’s face.

Before Pikachu could recover from its emotion, Taozi took out an empty Poké Ball from her backpack, gently threw it at Pikachu, and absorbed it inside.

Because Pikachu was tightly entangled by the Weedle’s String Shot, and because Taozi had just saved it, Pikachu actually didn’t struggle and calmly accepted its fate.

The Poké Ball only shook a few times before gradually stabilizing.

This also meant that Taozi had successfully caught Pikachu!

At the same time, the viewers in the live stream sent “congratulatory messages.”

Even though a night had passed, Taozi was still the first player on the entire network to catch a Pikachu!

“ 666666!”

“Hardship finally paid off.”

“Who understands! Taozi guarded for four hours, and I watched for four hours, all for this moment!”

“The first Pikachu on the entire network!!”

Looking at the rapidly refreshing bullet screen in the live stream, Taozi didn’t know how to express her feelings at that moment.

Four hours of waiting, not in vain. Her plan succeeded.

It was just that the process was not quite what she had expected.

Originally, Taozi had planned to have Charmander ambush Pikachu from behind when it was attracted by Oddish.

But then three Weedle came and helped out with an assist, making Pikachu willingly accept being caught. It was simply wonderful.
