Chapter 549

Once these words were spoken, the researchers around immediately opened their eyes wide and reached into their pockets one after another.

"What are you stunned for? Hurry up and wait to take notes!"

"This is a communication meeting between Professor Oak and Teacher Yu, and Eevee is Teacher Yu's initial Pokémon; he must have many unique insights of his own!"

"A giveaway question? A bit interesting..."

Eevee?

Xiang Qingyu was stunned; he really didn't expect Professor Oak to ask such a simple question.

As Eevee's trainer, and also a companion who witnessed its growth process, for him, wanting to answer this question was undoubtedly easy.

Even if he recited the entire Pokedex, it would be no problem.

But were these really the answers Professor Oak wanted to get?

Xiang Qingyu lowered his head subconsciously and began to think.

During the time he was thinking, the researchers around held their breath and focused, for fear of disturbing his attention.

Even Mew, who had always been unserious, cast a curious look at this time, waiting quietly for his answer.

Eevee...

Red lowered his head subconsciously, looking at the Eevee in his arms that hadn't woken up yet and showed a painful look from time to time, and also began to have some curiosity about Xiang Qingyu's answer.

If it were Teacher Yu, how would he view it?

The quiet environment lasted for about half a minute, until Xiang Qingyu raised his head, revealed a gentle smile, and said:

"Eevee is an extremely special Pokémon; just the currently known evolutionary forms are eight, and they all have their own unique charm."

"Therefore, I think Eevee is a Pokémon with a lot of potential."

After listening to Xiang Qingyu's words, Professor Oak nodded slightly, but his expression was obviously a bit disappointed.

If it was just analyzed from the perspective of evolution and strength, for him, it could only be considered a standard answer.

However, Xiang Qingyu changed the subject at this time and spoke again:

"But in my opinion, Eevee actually has another trait that other Pokémon also possess, but it is expressed more obviously, and that is—"

"They will try their best to respond to the trainer's emotions."

Speaking of this, Xiang Qingyu's eyes were obviously gentler.

Among Eevee's several evolutionary forms, Espeon, Umbreon, and Sylveon had already clearly stated their relationship with the trainer's intimacy.

For Xiang Qingyu, this was the best proof that they responded to the trainer's emotions.

"Before evolution, Eevee's combat power is very average, so a considerable number of trainers will forcibly pile up its combat consciousness through a large number of battles."

"But I think Eevee is a Pokémon with sensitive thoughts; compared to short-term strength improvement, slowly cultivating feelings with it and gradually establishing a bond is the correct cultivation method."

"If you use love to cultivate Eevee, it will also try its best to respond to the trainer's expectations and show its full potential after evolution."

Speaking of this, Xiang Qingyu felt a bit emotional.

At that time, he was still relatively raw as a trainer, so he didn't see at all that his own Eevee could have evolved long ago, but just because it wanted to respond to the trainer's expectations, it had been waiting for him to make the decision to evolve.

Finally, after solving this misunderstanding, it evolved into Sylveon overnight.

He and Sylveon both seemed a bit silly...

Perhaps because of this, the compatibility between them was so good.

"So I think that possessing powerful Pokémon can certainly make one an amazing trainer, but being able to make one's own Pokémon powerful and adapt to the characteristics of each Pokémon is the quality that an excellent trainer should possess."

Just after Xiang Qingyu finished speaking, he suddenly felt the Poké Ball in his pocket shake slightly, so he revealed a smile again.

Does this count as acknowledging his statement, Sylveon?

After answering, when looking at Professor Oak again, Xiang Qingyu soon noticed his gratified smile.

"Sure enough, there is a reason why Xiang Qingyu can become such an excellent trainer."

Respect Pokémon, trust Pokémon, and always be full of enthusiasm for Pokémon.

Although it sounds like a very simple thing, the trainers who can truly achieve this point are definitely not many.

It is precisely because he has implemented this point from beginning to end that Xiang Qingyu can gain the trust of these excellent Pokémon in his team and let the legendary Pokémon cast their eyes, right?

"Xiang Qingyu, I am very satisfied with your answer."

Professor Oak's eyes were soft, and he nodded slowly.

Sure enough, the bond between trainer and Pokémon is enough to move people at any time.

While he was speaking, other researchers around also nodded in unison, and some even wiped the corners of their eyes quietly.

"It's really good; although the answer seems a bit off-topic, but... as expected of Teacher Yu!"

"That's right, this is the bond between trainer and Pokémon!"

"Teacher Yu, the god forever!"

"..."

Red on the side looked down at the Eevee lying in his arms and nodded heavily.

Teacher Yu said it very correctly, and it's not just Eevee; it's the same for other Pokémon.

Only a trainer who trusts each other with Pokémon is a truly excellent trainer, and he still needs to continue to work hard.

"Then, next is the second question."

While speaking, Professor Oak's gaze was deep, and his expression also became more serious than the previous kind smile.

"Xiang Qingyu... do you know Celebi?"
