…
Shiko looked at his own status panel.
He was a little surprised.
Sure enough.
GeoGreymon…
Compared with Charizard at the sa stage of the evolution line…
It was stronger by far.
A total of 600 base stats—compared to Charizard's re 534—was an enormous gap.
His potential had also risen another step, reaching Gym Leader-level.
More importantly…
Because he had evolved into WarGreymon…
He had gained exclusive moves of his own!?
Exclusive moves!
That was a trait only so special Pokémon…
And those Legendary Pokémon…
Could possess!
Because they depended on the user's uniqueness…
And on an energy-usage thod that was difficult to replicate…
Even if soone analyzed how the energy was compressed, released, and manipulated during the move…
Ordinary Pokémon…
Still couldn't learn those exclusive moves.
That was where the power lay!
The scorching fireball Shiko had used in the last match—able to explode apart and spew searing flas that evaporated the water—
Was his exclusive move: Super Burst.
Right after that…
He noticed sothing on the panel that differed from when he was still a Charleon.
In the base stat section…
The comparison to a "standard GeoGreymon's" data was gone.
But Shiko quickly understood why.
He was probably the only GeoGreymon in this world.
There simply wasn't another one to compare him to.
Also…
He had gained a new Ability: Pressure.
That was an Ability known to exist on quite a few Legendary Pokémon.
In the gas…
It accelerated the consumption of the opponent's move PP.
But in reality…
It beca an increase in the energy the opponent consud when using moves.
It actually felt pretty reasonable.
Finally…
What confused him the most…
Was the three new "Law" values that appeared at the end of his status line.
Two at 0%.
One at 0.1%.
At first, Shiko didn't understand what these three new numbers even represented.
But soon…
He found the answer in his own evolution line.
GeoGreymon's next stage…
Had three branching evolution paths.
One led to ga Charizard X, one led to ga Charizard Y, and the remaining one…
Was Shiko's favorite: WarGreymon.
These three different paths had completely different evolution requirents.
ga Charizard X had no level requirent, but it required 5% Fire-type Law and 5% Dragon-type Law.
ga Charizard Y also had no level requirent, needing 10% Fire-type Law.
As for WarGreymon…
Its evolution requirents were the highest.
Besides a ridiculous level requirent of 65…
It also required at least 50% Dragon-type Law and 50% Steel-type Law!
These harsh, high-difficulty requirents…
Were on a totally different level compared to the first two.
Tch!
As expected of WarGreymon.
The legendary "dragon-beast slayer," the strongest dragon warrior—it really wasn't sothing you could evolve into easily.
Shiko marveled inwardly.
But this was good, too.
At the very least…
Just from the evolution conditions alone…
Shiko could confirm that once WarGreymon evolved successfully, its combat power would surpass ga Charizard X and ga Charizard Y by countless tiers.
It would absolutely be comparable to a legendary second-tier Legendary…
Perhaps even able to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with a first-tier Legendary.
But then the problem appeared.
These so-called "Law" powers…
Where were they supposed to co from?
And…
Why were the Dragon-type and Steel-type values at 0%…
But the Fire-type value was 0.1%?
Could it be…!?
Shiko suddenly thought of sothing.
A bold guess ford in his mind.
The next second…
He pulled out two gems.
One was blue—just looking at it made a heart-stopping ripple of pressure spread outward.
It was a Dragon Gem, brimming with extrely dense Dragon-type energy.
The other was silver.
It glead with tallic luster, giving off an indescribable sense of hardness and weight.
It was a Steel Gem, containing powerful Steel-type energy.
The Dragon Gem…
Was one of the prizes for winning the Pokémon Tournant.
The mont Hiko got it…
She handed it to Shiko.
And the Steel Gem…
Was sothing Aisa had privately given to Hiko—
The purpose being to build goodwill and keep things pleasant between them.
Both gems ended up in Shiko's hands.
He didn't hesitate.
Decisively…
He began extracting and absorbing the energy contained within the two gems.
Two torrents of energy in different colors…
Surged into Shiko's body at the sa ti.
A mont later…
The gems lost their original luster and shattered into powder.
And Shiko…
Felt the energy inside his body beco fuller and stronger once again.
Then…
He couldn't wait to check his status panel.
[Status: Perfect, Dragon-type Law (0.1%), Steel-type Law (0.1%), Fire-type Law (0.1%)]
…!!!
So it really was like this!
Shiko's face lit up with joy.
His guess and analysis were correct!
The reason his Fire-type Law…
Had already reached 0.1%, unlike the other two…
Was probably because he had once absorbed Fire-type energy from a Fla Orb.
Naturally ford attribute treasures like these…
Really did contain rare, fragnted pieces of attribute Laws.
Now that he had found a way to raise Law values…
Shiko finally let out a breath of relief.
As long as there was a thod, it was fine.
At the very least, WarGreymon…
Was no longer an unreachable goal!
But the joy only lasted an instant.
Shiko quickly started to feel troubled again.
Even if he had found a thod…
The problem was…
Steel Gems and Dragon Gems…
Were both rare, precious type-boosting gems.
On the market, each one was bought up for tens of millions…
And even then, you might not be able to get them.
At those prices…
If Shiko wanted to et the evolution requirents…
He would need resources worth hundreds of billions!
Hundreds of billions!?
Hiko had so assets…
But she was still nowhere near that number.
This was tough.
Sure enough, evolving into WarGreymon…
Wasn't as simple as he'd imagined.
Shiko scratched his head and sighed softly.
"Food's ready!!"
Hiko called out.
Together with Kirlia and Lopunny…
Each of them carried out a bowl as big as a pot.
Inside were Pokéblocks piled high like small mountains.
This was Shiko's lunch today.
There was no choice.
His body had grown so much larger…
That the energy needed to keep his bodily functions running was several tis greater than before.
Luckily, he usually ate Pokéblocks.
If his diet were more varied…
His appetite would probably be even more terrifying than Snorlax's.
Shiko was too tall…
And his forelimbs were a bit short.
So…
The job of feeding him could only be left to Lopunny, Hiko, and Kirlia.
He opened his mouth.
Comfortably enjoying the service of one human and two Pokémon.
It really felt like he was living the good life.
"So next, should we choose the Military or Pokémon universities—do you have any thoughts, Shiko?" Hiko asked.
You're asking ?
Shiko was a little surprised.
"Isn't this the kind of thing you decide?" Shiko replied.
The one being recruited was Hiko, not him.
"That's not the sa. We're partners, so I have to ask your opinion!"
"I already asked Kirlia and Lopunny too. They said they'll follow whatever you decide!"
Hiko set down the spoon in her hand.
She looked at Shiko seriously.
"Kirlia!"
"Lopunny!"
Kirlia and Lopunny also t Shiko's enormous dragon eyes.
In that mont…
Shiko suddenly felt like he'd beco the head of the household.
"Uh… I haven't really thought about it yet. What are you planning to choose?"
"How about you tell which one has more money?"
Shiko thought for a mont and answered.
To evolve into WarGreymon…
He would need far too many resources.
So Shiko's focus naturally landed on that first.
Hiko laughed softly.
She hadn't expected that to be what Shiko cared about.
"It's not easy to compare, because both are departnts directly under the Alliance. They both get funding from above."
"But I'm more inclined toward the Military. A comfortable, sheltered life isn't really suitable for ."
"If we join the Military, we'd probably be joining the Northern Military—where Elite Four Akimi is."
"I heard they've had big moves lately. There's been a large-scale Pokémon riot in Dragon Valley."
"It cut off the supply of a whole set of Dragon-type materials within our Alliance, including Dragon Gems!"
"Shiko!?"
"Shiko!? Are you listening to ?"
