After finishing the phone call, Fang Yuan wasn't stopped by security and directly entered the factory.
At the same time, Father Fang also rushed over from the opposite side.
"Here."
Fang Yuan handed over his ID card.
"Haha, you've helped me a lot."
Taking the ID card, Father Fang laughed and said, "Wait for me here for a moment."
After speaking, he turned and left, leaving Fang Yuan and Eevee looking at each other.
What's this all about...
Fortunately, Father Fang didn't leave for too long and quickly returned.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Fang Yuan and Eevee, "Alright, I'm done with work. I'll be off work soon, just wait a bit, and we'll go home together later."
"Okay." Fang Yuan nodded.
Father Fang added, "Well, go sit in my office for a while, there's air conditioning there, it's cool, or should I take you on a tour of this place?"
"Umm..." Fang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I won't sit, I'll just look around."
How this power plant raises Electric-type Pokémon, although he always hears his dad talk about it at home, Fang Yuan is still a bit curious.
In the games, the place where Electric-type Pokémon love to gather the most is this kind of power plant.
Even, in a certain unmanned power plant... there also lives a legendary Pokémon.
The legendary bird in the thunderclouds, Zapdos.
...
Father Fang took Fang Yuan on a tour.
There aren't many types of Electric-type Pokémon here, only Voltorb and Magnemite. The electromechanical facilities have been modified to a structure suitable for these Electric-type Pokémon to charge, which is different from what Fang Yuan imagined.
When they passed a cylindrical generator, several Pokémon resembling Poké Balls suddenly jumped down from it.
The three Voltorb saw someone coming and stared at Fang Yuan and Eevee the whole way, giving Fang Yuan a big fright.
Voltorb are generally considered harmful Pokémon due to their unstable emotions and their habit of exploding when angry. Having watched too many animations, Fang Yuan has a bit of a shadow regarding this kind of Pokémon, fearing that a Voltorb might accidentally self-destruct.
However, Fang Yuan also understands that his worry is unnecessary.
"This is the Damp device. It's this device that fills the power plant with suppressing energy. This energy not only makes the Voltorb's mood more stable, but also suppresses their Explosion moves."
Father Fang introduced to Fang Yuan.
"Amazing... the person who invented this device must be a genius."
Fang Yuan looked at the device, which looked like an air conditioner, and admired it.
Damp was originally an Ability of Pokémon. Pokémon with this Ability can invalidate the opponent's Self-Destruct, Explosion, and other moves. The principle is to create a special humid environment. The inspiration for this Damp device comes from this Ability. After improvement, the Damp device not only didn't make Fang Yuan feel any dampness, but also retained the effect of suppressing explosions, which is truly incredible.
It is said that this Damp Rock device is now used in many fields and is an important guarantee for personal safety in dangerous places.
Fang Yuan was thinking... the big shot who invented this device must have made a fortune.
In addition, the Gloom perfume pursued by the girls in his class is also a genius idea.
Gloom is best known for its foul-smelling pollen, which has been described as smelling like a mixture of old sneakers, garbage, rotten eggs, and skunk spray, which smells terrible.
Just when everyone avoids Gloom, who would have thought that its extract would be a top raw material for perfume.
For another example, the poisonous spores of Parasect can be used for medicine.
Now, many people have shared the cake from Pokémon and become winners in life. It would be false to say that Fang Yuan is not envious.
"Fortunately, Pokémon have only begun to be studied in recent decades, and there are still many unknown benefits to be divided. I understand that discovering new Abilities can bring me a sum of money in a short period of time, but if I really want to make more money continuously, it must be something that can bring practical value, like this Damp Rock device and Gloom perfume."
"It seems that if I want to publish new papers or even apply for patents in the future, it is best to choose content that can be transformed into practical benefits..."
While Fang Yuan was thinking, he stood there in a daze. Father Fang turned around and looked at him suspiciously.
This child... is he stupid from studying?
How can he be in a daze all the time.
"Eevee!"
Seeing this, Eevee patted Fang Yuan's head with its tail, reminding him to walk.
Fortunately, Eevee hasn't started training its tail yet...
Fang Yuan recovered, and Father Fang led him around for a while, but at this moment, Fang Yuan's mind was no longer on this. Seeing that it was getting late, the two began to return the same way.
But at this moment, Fang Yuan said "Huh".
"What's wrong with that Magnemite?"
In a corner of an electromechanical facility, a gray, mechanical-like Pokémon leaned against the wall, watching them alone.
"This..."
Seeing this Magnemite, Father Fang was stunned, then sighed and slowly walked over and squatted down.
Then he gently held the Magnemite from the corner into his palm.
"This Magnemite has been here for a long time. I heard from the old employees that there may be some defects in its body. The left and right parts cannot emit Thunder Wave to shield gravity, which also leads to this child not being able to fly."
"Didn't you ask a Pokémon Doctor?"
"These Pokémon have undergone a unified physical examination, and the doctor said it may be a congenital defect."
"The main thing is that there are too many Magnemite here, and the higher-ups won't make a big fuss if one has a problem... If it can't recover before this batch of Pokémon is sent away, it may be directly released into the wild."
The Magnemite in Father Fang's hand showed a lonely expression. It is precisely because it cannot float in the air that it is incompatible with other Pokémon of the same kind. Unable to integrate into the group, it is often rejected and can only be here alone.
"Can't emit Thunder Wave to shield gravity..."
This was also the first time Fang Yuan had heard of this situation.
...
When leaving the Power Plant, Fang Yuan couldn't help but ask, "The Power Plant is so big, it shouldn't be difficult to raise this one Magnemite, right? If it can't fly, I reckon this Magnemite will have a hard time surviving in the wild."
"It's indeed not difficult, but it's not a long-term solution either; it can't integrate here at all."
"Several older employees in the Power Plant have also discussed what to do with it. The solution they came up with was whether it's possible to apply to the higher-ups to not delete its position within the plant and find an employee to take it home to raise. At worst, everyone can chip in a little money," Father Fang said.
"If that could happen, that would be great. If it really doesn't work out, I can take care of it. Anyway, Magnemite doesn't eat much, and electricity is cheap. For ordinary care, any family can afford it."
Father Fang was still soft-hearted. Fang Yuan could tell from his actions and eyes when he held up the Magnemite... It seemed that his father's will was firm.
Fang Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, if our family wants to raise it, I don't mind. My mom shouldn't have any problems either."
