Pokémon Court-Chapter 137: Enhancement

The night in Lavender Town was very quiet, and not even a single Pokémon cry could be heard. A stifling stillness permeated the air. Yet, on such a night, a figure emerged. Terrance took a deep breath, attempting to suppress his fear. He didn’t want to be ridiculed by Misdreavus.

The Pokémon Tower in the dark night was terrifying. Professors have published several reports on Lavender Town, stating that excessive energy accumulation could cause spatial distortion, leading people to see unpleasant things. This was also the reason why people in Lavender Town avoided going out at night.

Terrance has been staying in Lavender Town for three days. During these three days, Little Misdreavus has been spending its time eating. The rich atmosphere of Lavender Town allowed it to enjoy itself comfortably. However, considering that the goal is evolution, Terrance could not allow Misdreavus to continue in such a relaxed state.

So, on this night, when Little Misdreavus had absorbed a considerable amount of energy and reached its limit, Terrance brought it out, intending to cause some trouble.

“Until now, not a single Ghost Type Pokémon has come to bother us. We should really be grateful to them,” Terrance muttered to himself. His actions, bringing Little Misdreavus into others’ territory, were akin to freeloaders. Despite Lavender Town having a dense concentration of various energies, when spread among every Ghost Type Pokémon in the Pokemon Tower, there wasn’t much left.

“Thank your elders properly. After tonight, you can complete your evolution. However, when you evolve, they might be furious and come out…” Terrance spoke to Little Misdreavus, then took out a Dusk Stone. However, he didn’t immediately use it on Little Misdreavus.

Although Little Misdreavus had accumulated enough to reach a saturation state, Terrance made some additional preparations to ensure its better evolution.

Firstly, guidance. Pokémon like Mismagius could emit incantation-like cries that could trouble opponents or make others feel happy, similar to spells.

However, compared to spells that bring happiness, they are more adept at terrifying curses that torment opponents with eerie cries, and the frequency of their use is also higher.

The personality of Misdreavus would change significantly after evolution. This wasn’t exclusive to Misdreavus; many Pokémon undergo a personality change after evolving, either in a positive or negative direction.

Like Magikarp evolving into Gyarados… nine times out of ten, it evolves in a negative direction.

However, this was also related to Magikarp’s experiences. What they went through in the past would influence the personality they developed after evolution.

Terrance didn’t want Little Misdreavus to evolve into a mischievous Pokémon, who loves playing tricks on people. Moreover, while researching Pokémon like Misdreavus, he unexpectedly discovered a move belonging to Mismagius: Lucky Chant.

Chanting an incantation towards the sky, thereby improving one’s luck.

This move can be said to be very useful, or it can be said to be not very useful. However, after Akon received the news that Misdreavus was about to evolve, he sent Terrance two sets of data.

Akon also had a Misdreavus, so he had his own research data on it.

These two sets of data are classic battle records, highlighting the decisive differences caused by luck. A subtle influence can lead the lucky side to ultimate victory, while the unlucky side must accept defeat.

Strength is paramount, but luck is also a part of strength.

However, after research, it has been found that not every Mismagius can easily grasp “Lucky Chant.” Only Misdreavus with a kind and peaceful disposition are more likely to learn Lucky Chant after evolution. freewebno vel.com

But Terrance’s Little Misdreavus, who usually frightens people and creates terrifying illusions, has no relation with kindness. However, Akon proposed a probability theory that being in a “good deeds state” during evolution could also influence Mismagius’ chances of learning “Lucky Chant.”

The second set of data pertains to the success rate of Mismagius using moves similar to illusion skills, with or without “Lucky Chant.”

This success rate refers to the probability of trapping opponents in illusions, making it difficult for them to detect and escape it.

In other words, under the “Lucky Chant” state, there are many aspects in which luck is enhanced, such as fortuitously avoiding critical hits from the opponent’s attacks…

Avoiding critical hits from the opponent’s attacks is the clearest aspect of understanding the “Lucky Chant” move, but this is far from the key point of this move.

If luck improves, it wouldn’t only affect one aspect; it’s just that it’s the aspect that can easily be observed directly.

Upon seeing the dense array of formulas and calculations regarding the enhancement of “illusion skills” by “Lucky Chant,” Terrance was completely overwhelmed. In his mind, he couldn’t help but ridicule Akon’s computational abilities.

This is what a true genius is.

Terrance might not understand the myriad calculations and formulas, but he grasped one thing clearly: if Misdreavus wants to continue developing its illusion skills, the “Lucky Chant” move is an indispensable aid.

So, Terrance planned to let Little Misdreavus perform acts of kindness in Lavender Town during this final moment of evolution.

Having done so many bad things, it was time to let Little Misdreavus experience the feeling of doing good.

The so-called “kindness” is quite simple – it involves letting Little Misdreavus create pleasant dreams for the sleeping residents through “illusions” and “five senses”, disturbing negative emotions around and ensuring that people passing through Lavender Town have a peaceful sleep.

For Little Misdreavus, this was a big task. After three full days of accumulation and abundant energy, Terrance had been worried about how to make Little Misdreavus release it. This way, he could take care of both things, achieving a perfect solution.

As for why so much energy is accumulated and then released, this is the rule passed down by the previous generation. Terrance didn’t have the energy and time to delve into it deeply. However, since the theory has been recognized by many experienced Breeders, even if there are issues, it’s not something a Junior Breeder like Terrance can point out with certainty.

In fact, this theory about Pokémon evolution was derived from humans. It seemed to originate from an ancient soldier who, in a state of physical exhaustion, broke through his limits and unleashed unimaginable strength.

Then, researchers found that Pokémon evolving in a “calm state” needed a long time to adapt to their post-evolution form, while Pokémon evolving in a “high-intensity battle state” could rapidly adjust to their new form, reacquainting themselves proficiently and unleash even more of their potential.

Especially when evolving in a state of “almost exhausted” and “physically drained,” it posed a significant challenge to Pokémon. If energy was depleted, stamina exhausted, how could they still evolve?

But there were precedents; Pokémon that successfully evolve in this state tend to exhibit a tenfold increase in certain abilities compared to Pokémon that evolve in a normal, calm manner.
