Chapter 9 needs thinking? Not at all!
Just as Xiao Xia was fuming.
The mechanical voice that had sounded before echoed once more.
【Question: After rookie trainer Satoshi resolved the Pidgey situation, what Pokémon appeared in the sky?】
【A: Shiny Pidgeotto】
【B: Zapdos】
【C: Ho-Oh】
【Everyone in the chatroom can answer. This question has two chances to answer. Answering correctly will earn a random reward, while answering incorrectly will result in punishment.】
…
As the mechanical voice echoed.
A line of text appeared on the chatroom’s barrage.
Those who encountered this situation for the first time fell into deep thought.
“Hmm… previously, this voice seemed to say that there would be occasional Q&A sessions? Answering correctly would earn you generous rewards?”
“Wow, this is so exciting!”
“I just wonder what the reward will be.”
“Yeah, yeah! This screen looks so mysterious, I wonder if the punishment will be really scary!”
Many ordinary trainers who gathered together were discussing amongst themselves.
To answer or not to answer?
That is the question!
…
“Three options and two chances to answer? It should be quite easy.”
Zoukuchi Daigo, who had retired from his position as the Johto region’s Champion, calmly said.
“A simple analysis first, Shiny Pidgeotto… This answer seems like the most likely one.”
“But comparing Shiny Pokémon to legendary Pokémon… it’s hard to say which is rarer.”
Mr. Daigo, who owned a Shiny Metagross, was very well-informed about the rarity of Shiny Pokémon.
Legendary Pokémon are hard to encounter.
But Shiny Pokémon are equally rare!
These three choices are truly difficult to choose between!
Viridian City Gym.
Sakaki’s gaze swept across the three options.
His eyes held a hint of thought.
“Eliminate Ho-Oh first.”
Mhm.
Sakaki nodded.
No problem.
It definitely can’t be Ho-Oh.
Don’t ask why.
Just say it’s impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
“The most likely option should be Pidgeotto.”
“But if it’s Shiny Pidgeotto… it’s highly unlikely.”
As the boss of Team Rocket, he had handled hundreds upon thousands of Pokémon.
However, among these Pokémon.
The chances of a Shiny Pokémon appearing… were extremely low, almost nonexistent.
Sakaki didn’t believe it.
This rookie trainer named Satoshi was so lucky that he could encounter a Shiny Pokémon right after leaving the starting town.
Shiny Pidgeotto? It must be a distractor!
The most likely one is definitely not it!
Pass decisively!
That leaves only Zapdos.
“Zapdos…”
Sakaki muttered.
“Ordinary people will hesitate, thinking that Zapdos is also a legendary Pokémon and the probability of encountering it is not high.”
“Actually…”
“Zapdos is the most likely one!”
As he spoke, a gleam flashed in Sakaki’s eyes.
Why is that?
It’s because Sakaki knew that Zapdos had a flock!
Not every Zapdos is a legendary Pokémon!
Of course.
As legendary Pokémon, Zapdos, Moltres, and Articuno’s strength far surpasses ordinary Pokémon.
Compared to some pseudo-legendary Pokémon, their strength is also quite impressive.
Within their respective flocks.
Only the strongest one is the legendary Pokémon with divine power that is talked about in legends!
In other words—
Satoshi, who just left the starting town, could very well encounter a Zapdos.
He hesitated for two seconds.
Sakaki chose to answer.
“Let’s wait and see… I don’t know if this entity is safe or not… if there are any hidden conspiracies and traps behind it…”
Sakaki said with a cautious expression.
Just then.
Someone answered.
It was Mukou.
After analyzing this question, he quickly made a decision.
“A! The answer must be A!”
“He’s just a rookie trainer. Even if that Pikachu goes all out, what special Pokémon can he encounter?”
“Can you easily encounter Zapdos and Ho-Oh?”
“Impossible! Absolutely impossible!”
Mukou said confidently.
After the Pidgey, encountering a Pidgeotto’s revenge attack.
Isn’t this a normal occurrence?
Does it need thinking?
Not at all!
Mukou placed his hands on his hips and proudly raised his head.
He’s that smart!
So what if it’s a Shiny Pidgeotto!
Isn’t it still a Pidgeotto!
Mukou, who didn’t realize how rare a Shiny Pokémon is, had no doubt about his answer.
After answering.
Mukou was already starting to expectantly await the reward!
He couldn’t understand why so many people were still hesitating when the answer was already so clear!
But thankfully, these people were hesitant, allowing him to answer first!
After Mukou answered.
Some people indeed regretted it.
