Let you make animations and develop virtual Pokémon? Chapter 026

Taozi picked up the successfully subdued Poké Ball from the ground, pressed the button, and released Pikachu.

The Charmander beside them was very sensible. It knew that Pikachu was now its companion, so it voluntarily went up and used its claws to tear off the threads wrapped around Pikachu’s body.

Taozi, meanwhile, observed Pikachu’s detailed information.

[Name: Pikachu (Male)]

[Level: 6]

[Attribute: Electric]

[Ability: Static (When a contact move is used to attack a Pokémon with this ability, there is a 30% chance of the attacker becoming paralyzed.)]

[Moves: Thundershock, Growl, Tail Whip, Quick Attack, Thunder Wave]

…

“Pikachu has so many moves?”

Taozi exclaimed in surprise after reading Pikachu’s detailed information.

A Level 6 Pikachu already had 5 moves!

Then, Taozi bent down and looked at the Oddish, which was still obediently staying in the ground, and gently stroked the leaf on its head.

“Oddish, you worked hard, you can come out now.”

“Na-do~”

Hearing its trainer’s voice, Oddish slowly opened its small, red-bean-like eyes and emerged from the ground.

“Pika Pika?”

At this instant, Pikachu let out a startled cry, its voice filled with shock.

It couldn’t understand how the “fruit” it had just been fighting with those Kakuna over had turned into a Pokémon in the blink of an eye.

Could it be… all of this was a conspiracy?

Pikachu stared blankly at Taozi and Oddish, its brain working rapidly.

Finally, after just a few seconds, it suddenly realized that it had been tricked!

Thinking this, Pikachu became furious, screaming and shouting at the top of its lungs, expressing its dissatisfaction and anger.

“Pika! Pika Pika!!!”

Taozi revealed a mischievous smile, bent down, and unceremoniously kneaded Pikachu’s round cheeks several times.

“Hehehe, you’re already my Pokémon, screaming won’t do you any good!”

“Pika!”

Pikachu pouted, turned its back defiantly, and refused to acknowledge Taozi.

Taozi gently patted its head.

Taozi didn’t take Pikachu’s dissatisfaction to heart at all.

Since Pikachu had already become her Pokémon, there would be plenty of time in the future to slowly reconcile their relationship.

Compared to the long 4 hours just now, this small issue was utterly insignificant.

“Alright, alright, you all come back.”

“To all the friends in the live stream, goodbye. Thank you for spending those 4 hours with me. I’m going to sleep. I’ll stream again whenever I wake up today!”

Taozi recalled the three Pokémon, finally succumbing to the overwhelming drowsiness, and went offline to sleep.

…

That morning, at the Arceus Company, President’s Office.

Ye Xiao was sitting in a chair, looking at the sales data displayed on the computer.

[Zeus Generation Virtual Helmet]

[Sales Volume: 500, 000]

[Sales Revenue: 15 billion]

…

[Pokémon: The Beginning of Dreams]

[Sales Volume: 5 million]

[Sales Revenue: 4 billion]

…

As he expected, in just one night, the sales volume of the virtual helmet more than doubled.

Once the public personally confirmed that virtual games were real, for such a cross-era technology, as long as a family wasn’t so poor that they couldn’t make ends meet, people’s inner desire to consume was truly hard to suppress.

Ye Xiao boldly predicted that in the next week, the sales of virtual helmets could increase by at least another 1 million units!

“However, what should the company’s next step be?”

Ye Xiao propped his chin with his hand, lost in thought.

In the past six months, the Orange Islands arc and Johto Region arc of “Pokémon Season 1” had already been completed.

Moreover, Ye Xiao had already signed broadcasting contracts with major video websites across the entire network in advance.

As long as he wanted, he could start broadcasting across the entire network at any time.

However, before that, Ye Xiao always felt like something was missing.

That’s right! Movies!

For the super IP of Pokémon, in addition to animation and games, movies were also an indispensable part.

Thinking of this, Ye Xiao immediately decided.

Arceus Company’s first animated film, “Pokémon: Mewtwo Strikes Back,” was officially approved for production!

This movie primarily tells the story of Mewtwo, the strongest Pokémon created by humans through genetic technology, who questions the meaning of its existence, then develops hostility towards humans, escapes the research facility, and plans revenge against humanity.

Speaking of which, before his transmigration, Ye Xiao was deeply shocked the first time he saw this movie in his childhood.

This movie not only tells the adventure story of Ash’s protagonist group but also explores the meaning of life and self-identity.

Using this movie to open the door to Arceus Company’s film industry was entirely fitting.

After a day of fermentation.

This time, virtual games had completely broken through, not only becoming popular domestically but also causing a considerable stir abroad.

Many live stream recordings of streamers playing “Pokémon: The Beginning of Dreams” were uploaded by domestic netizens to foreign websites.

These recordings were like sharp swords, piercing the hearts of those foreigners who had once questioned Dragon Country’s alleged fraud.

Domestic netizens still remembered how Arceus Company’s real-time demo videos were criticized and even insulted by those foreigners.

So, after “Pokémon: The Beginning of Dreams” officially launched at 8 PM yesterday, netizens couldn’t wait to collect various pieces of evidence to slap those foreigners in the face.

The live stream recordings of major domestic streamers undoubtedly became the most powerful weapon.

These hours-long recordings truly displayed every scene and every detail of the game.

Now, these foreigners were completely convinced; they could no longer use any excuses to slander Dragon Country.

However, they couldn’t understand why Dragon Country’s brain-computer technology could truly lead the world so quickly.

Looking at the astonishingly realistic scenes in the virtual world, foreign gamers couldn’t resist the allure of this game and could only watch enviously, while also looking forward to when they could buy the Arceus Generation Virtual Helmet shown in the videos.

Many foreigners heard that Dragon Country had offline experience stores, so they planned to take advantage of Dragon Country’s visa-free policy for their countries, buy plane tickets, and travel to Dragon Country to experience this virtual helmet.
