Inside the room.
Li Wei had already silenced his phone and hadn't seen the message from his grandpa yet.
Li Wei meticulously explained Energy Cube production in front of the camera, using dragon fruit.
Because he was explaining, Li Wei was especially serious this time.
The Berry machine dispensed sparkling, gem-like pink Energy Cubes.
The high-definition camera clearly captured it.
The Identification Eye provided information: [A nearly perfect dragon fruit cube.]
This was the second time Li Wei had made a nearly perfect Energy Cube.
Li Wei had put both of his dragon fruits in; these were special treats for Metang and the others.
Eating dragon fruit cubes would increase their special attack ability value.
Arcanine and Metang were already restless with hunger...
"Wait, don't rush! Let me introduce it first!"
Lucario was stiff-necked and uncomfortable.
His body wanted Lucario to move forward like Arcanine,
But his mind kept telling him...
Be elegant! Be elegant!
His body and mind were truly uncooperative.
"These are Energy Cubes made from rare dragon fruit, look…"
"Newcomers are advised to start with common Oran Berry, Cheri Berry, and taotao fruit."
"It's very difficult to make high-quality Energy Cubes with Oran Berry; it depends on your technique."
Li Wei finally finished his introduction and divided the dragon fruit cubes evenly into three portions.
"Alright, eat."
Arcanine immediately showed Li Wei a display of gobbling, scooping up more than half with one tongue swipe and finishing it in two bites.
Metang controlled the cubes with Confusion, one by one flying into its mouth.
The elegant Lucario tied his napkin and elegantly used a spoon to chew slowly.
Although Arcanine was drooling over Lucario's bowl, it wouldn't snatch it.
Because it couldn't win...
Li Wei had always been fair and never mistreated Arcanine.
[Ding, obtained Energy Cube proficiency 999]
...
All three Pokémon received 999, which evidently pleased them greatly.
Currently, proficiency is calculated for an entire portion.
According to Li Wei's observation, the maximum proficiency for a portion of Energy Cubes seems to be 999 points.
To confirm this definitively, he would have to wait until he produced a perfect quality Energy Cube.
As the last dragon fruit cube entered its mouth, Metang's body suddenly burst forth with dazzling white light!
The white light enveloped Silver Metang, its body continuously growing larger.
Two new metal arms gradually extended from behind its disc-shaped body, transforming into four legs.
The spikes on its face gradually evolved into an "X"-shaped golden metal cross.
Metang evolved—Metagross!
Li Wei's ShinnyMetang was already larger than a normal Metang.
After evolving into Metagross, its size advantage became even more apparent.
A normal Metagross's disc-shaped body has a diameter between 1.4 meters and 1.6 meters.
However, the diameter of Li Wei's Metagross's disc-shaped body was even longer than Li Wei's arm span!
Li Wei is 1.86 meters tall with an arm span of 1.92 meters; he estimated Metagross's body diameter to be over 2.10 meters.
Standing on all four legs, Metagross's height reached roughly Li Wei's waist.
"Kohkin!"
Metagross's red eyes narrowed into a slit, and it used Confusion to lift Li Wei, carrying him into the air.
Lucario and Arcanine curiously watched the Silver Metagross.
Actually, the room wasn't large, and Metagross was huge, making flight very difficult.
However, Metagross flew very steadily, without any collisions.
This was thanks to Metagross's four connected brains.
These four brains form a complex neural network, even more sophisticated than a supercomputer.
With four brains processing in parallel, Metagross can complete calculations in an instant.
It's like playing billiards.
Metagross can even calculate the path of skill release after a collision.
The Identification Eye also provided information about Metagross.
[Name]: Metagross
[Attributes]: Steel, Psychic
[Ability]: Clear Body (Unaffected by ability or move stat drops)
[Skills]: Iron Defense, Protect, Hammer Arm, Psychic Fangs, Psychic, Bullet Punch, Comet Punch, Zen Headbutt...
[Strength Rating]: Professional (Intermediate)
This evolution allowed Metang to advance directly from Senior (Advanced) to Professional (Intermediate), a very significant improvement.
Li Wei speculated it was due to eating the metal coat and the nearly perfect dragon fruit cubes.
"Let's go outside and try it out."
Li Wei first turned off the recording camera, then recalled the evolved Metagross into its Luxury Ball; its size was too large to exit otherwise.
"Little Boss!"
"Brother Wei!"
The new employees at the Breeding Center had various ways of addressing Li Wei, and Li Wei accepted them all.
Arriving at the fountain fish pond in front of the main gate, Li Wei threw out a Luxury Ball.
"Come out, Metagross!"
Li Wei leaped onto Metagross's back, and Metagross carried Li Wei into the air, transforming into a silver flash.
Li Wei's ears were filled with the sound of rushing wind.
Arcanine and Lucario also ran in the direction of the silver streak of light.
"Owooooo~~~"Convex Convex
Arcanine roared majestically.
Lucario held his arms out straight, white light surged around him, and his speed grew faster and faster.
Rui Xi, who was feeding wild Pokémon, looked up.
"Silver Metagross, it evolved so quickly."
Shion, the new employee Rui Xi brought, looked at the Silver Metagross, her eyes filled with envy.
"How can there be such a cool Pokémon as Silver Metagross!"
Rui Xi gently shattered her dream.
"Silver Metagross is rare; don't dream about it. So far, I've only seen Steven, the HoennChampion, and Li Wei's."
Shion looked a bit helpless, "Sister Rui Xi, don't be so serious. I wasn't expecting it."
Metagross carried Li Wei to the very edge of the Breeding Center.
At this time, Brother Da You and Incineroar were bathing Tauros.
"Yo, Brother Da You."
Following the sound, Da You looked up and saw Li Wei sitting on Metagross.
"Metang evolved?! So fast! How about a battle later?"
"Sure, before dinner. You go ahead and finish up."
"Okay."
Metang's evolution was within Li Wei's expectations, and his excitement quickly faded.
Li Wei soon returned to his room, while Metagross went out for its usual battle training.
The afternoon was their free time to go out and challenge wild Pokémon.
It took Li Wei two hours to edit and upload the Energy Cube production tutorial, the scene of Arcanine and Metang drooling over the Energy Cubes, and Metagross's evolution.
"PokémonTrainer Employment Guide 04: Energy Cubes" uploaded successfully and is under review.
With three consecutive videos reaching millions of views, Li Wei's video review speed had noticeably increased.
[Your video has been reviewed and uploaded successfully!]
Li Wei then picked up his phone and saw the message his grandpa had sent him.
Li Wei: [Okay, Grandpa, do you need me to pick him up?]
Grandpa: [No need, he'll go directly.]
Silver Metagross
