Pokémon: Master Pokémon has a fish-frying system.

Chapter 147 The Possibility of the Sea Dragon

"Sea Serpent!"

"Come quick, everyone! Someone caught a sea drake!"

Five weighing platforms were set up on the shore to calculate the total score for each team.

Imai's two Pokémon were on the fifth weighing platform, while many anglers were not paying attention to the situation on the other four weighing platforms.

It should be said that after Luther's team reached 243 points, most teams had already lost interest in competing for the championship.

They'll stay here, just to see if other teams catch any rare species.

Therefore, the noise from weighing platform number five quickly caught their attention.

"Has someone caught a sea serpent?"

After noticing the commotion at weigh station number five, the lines at the other four weigh stations came running:

Where can I find sea serpents?

The three players, including Luther, who were originally surrounded by at least five teams and no less than fifteen people, keenly noticed that the number of people around them was starting to decrease.

And they were all intentionally heading towards station number five.

Seeing this, Luther became curious and grabbed a fisherman:

"Hey guys, what are you guys doing over there?"

The fisherman clearly recognized Luther as the current number one.

The angler still maintained a certain level of respect for this fishing expert:

"I heard a Seadragon appeared on Station 5, and everyone rushed over to see it."

Upon hearing this, Luther's pupils contracted slightly.

Seadragon!

Upon hearing the news, Luther and his two companions exchanged a glance, then immediately abandoned the chattering crowd around them and rushed toward Platform Five.

When Luther arrived at Platform Five, he was greeted by a lamplighter and a sea serpent dragon that seemed a bit dim-witted.

Upon seeing the sea dinosaur, Luther, currently in first place overall, and the other fishing players all had their eyes burning with excitement.

It's important to know that the three Pokémon that Luther's team caught—Goldfish, Octopus, and Kingler—were all second-stage evolutions, which were also their final evolutions.

Compared to common fish Pokémon like Magikarp and Goldeen, they are less likely to be encountered and more difficult to catch.

Therefore, their scoring coefficients are all 1.5.

The Lantern on platform five, like other Pokémon such as Octobuzz, undergoes a second evolution followed by its final evolution.

Although the Electric-type Lantern is a bit rarer than the three Pokémon that Luther caught, it's like the electric eel in the animal world, making it more eye-catching.

But in reality, it's just that, even the scoring coefficient is the same as other Pokémon, 1.5.

For battle enthusiast Luther, Electric-type moves are almost only useful when facing other Water-type Pokémon; otherwise, they are often inferior to Water-type moves.

Furthermore, the Lantern Monster's attack and defense are both relatively average, and its physical structure means that it can only unleash its full potential when it is in water.

It is completely incomparable to his amphibious mosquito coil swimmer and mosquito coil frog king.

Therefore, Luther only glanced at the Lightbulb with slight surprise, and then looked away.

However, the Seadragon on the same weighing platform is quite different.

Although it is a second-stage evolution like several other Pokémon, Seadra has a unique advantage that the other Pokémon do not have.

That means it can evolve one more time!

The evolved form of Seadra is Kingdra, a Water/Dragon type!

This is no longer just a rare Pokémon that fishermen want; it's Kingdra, which was once a formidable force in battles!

At the pinnacle of immortality, I reign supreme over the world; with my dragon-piercing prowess, the heavens will reign.

Kingdra, with its Water/Dragon attribute, boasts excellent resistances and only has two weaknesses: Dragon and Fairy. It also possesses the ability to float and dive, making it useful in battles, fishing, and everyday life.

Its skill set is also very broad, possessing powerful moves with multiple attributes including water, dragon, steel, ice, and flying, and it can also learn "Quick Return".

Moreover, King Thorn Dragon has considerable potential for development.

Let's take the quantitative data from the Pokémon battle mobile game that's been very popular in Kanto recently as an example. Blastoise's total potential six-dimensional value is 530, while Kingdra's six-dimensional value is 540!

It's ten points taller than Blastoise!

If we disregard the dragon scales required to evolve Seadra and the high resource consumption of training Dragon-type Pokémon, its potential is even higher than Blastoise, one of the three starter Pokémon in Kanto!

It's not just a difference in potential for development.

As a member of the Golden University team, Luther knew very well that if Seadra could evolve into Kingdra, its ability would often be "Sniper" or "Easy Swim".

Both of these characteristics are extremely powerful in battle.

With the Sniper ability, when Kingdra hits another Pokémon in a critical spot, the damage dealt to that Pokémon is 50% greater than that of a normal Pokémon.

If King Thorn Dragon possesses the other trait, "Free Movement," then it would be even more special for Luthor.

Because the effect of "Swift Swim" is to double the Pokémon's Agility and Speed ​​in "Rainy" weather!

This gives King Thorn Dragon an overwhelming advantage in battle!

With the added benefits of rainy weather, attribute bonuses, and the right items, Kingdra's every attack can deal three to five times the normal damage to its opponent.

Coincidentally, Luther's Poliwag has a rare hidden ability called "Rain," which allows it to activate "Rainy Day" weather almost without any cost!

If Kingdra could team up with Luther's Poliwag, they would be an unbeatable force in doubles battles!

More importantly, Kingdra's "Swift Swim" ability is just a regular ability!

The probability of this is completely different from that of the Poliwag King's hidden ability "Rain"!

In other words, if the Seadragon on the weighing platform can successfully evolve, it is very likely to have the "Easy Swim" ability!

For Luther, who enjoys both fishing and battling, King Thorn Dragon is simply the perfect companion!

Although the sea dinosaur in front of him was shaking its head for some unknown reason, it didn't stop Luther from staring at it with an intensity that was unmatched by others.

As a member of the Golden University varsity team, Luther enjoys fishing, but he wouldn't go so far as to participate in a twelve-hour fishing competition just for a top-quality fishing rod.

There is only one reason that would attract him to participate in this competition.

In this fishing competition, all the fish caught by the anglers were to be released back into Yuanshan Lake after the competition.

Some Pokémon that are not suitable to be kept in Lake Farmount will be taken away by the authorities and placed in other ways.

However, if they become the winning team in this fishing competition...

Then the three members of that team have the right to buy any three Pokémon that are caught on the field at a price far below the market price!

This was incredibly appealing to Luther, a member of the school team!
