"Then I'll have to trouble you. I was too careless just now and misjudged the condition of this Dodori. Because there were a lot of people in line, I didn't administer sufficient anesthesia before trying to remove the foreign object, which backfired."
The doctor said with some self-reproach.
"Dr. Hu, you mean well. The most important thing now is to continue treatment. There are still many Pokémon patients waiting outside."
The nurse comforted Dr. Hu.
Chansey and Bulbasaur next to him also made sounds to cheer Dr. Hu on.
After the nurse finished speaking, she went outside and explained the situation to the people in line.
Meanwhile, Ye Yinchuan used the "Heavenly Hands" to stroke Duduli, allowing Dr. Hu to carry out the treatment smoothly.
"It was a chicken leg bone that got stuck in Dodori's throat. Once it was removed, it was fine. We can't feed Dodori that kind of thing next time. Dodori doesn't even have teeth, and its esophagus is quite narrow, so it can't chew bones or swallow them directly."
"It's my fault for being lazy today and not removing the bones, and I got a phone call halfway through feeding it. I really didn't expect that its three heads would start fighting over the food, and before I knew it, it had swallowed the bones."
Upon hearing this, Ye Yinchuan had some doubts.
It seems that even the "calm" head isn't so calm when it comes to food.
"That's how Dodrio is. If there's not enough food, it will fight over it, and even start brawls. Be careful next time, and you, as its owner, could learn more about how to properly control Dodrio!"
The doctor spoke earnestly.
As a Pokémon owner, I have a duty to fulfill this responsibility.
After speaking, the doctor nodded to Ye Yinchuan:
"Thank you for your help. Please bring your Pokémon in."
Ye Yinchuan led the little Munchlax inside.
As he walked out, the people in line all looked at him with gratitude and admiration.
Some people directly praised it:
"Hey buddy, we all saw how dangerous that was just now. Thank goodness you subdued that Dodori, otherwise we'd all be in big trouble!"
There were even introductions for potential partners:
"What a handsome young man, and so kind-hearted! Do you have a girlfriend yet? Would you like your aunt to introduce you to someone? My niece would be perfect..."
Faced with the praise and enthusiasm of the crowd, Ye Yinchuan could only smile and nod in response.
As for being introduced to potential partners... I simply can't respond to that.
Ye Yinchuan has no plans in that direction for the time being; he'll just take things as they come.
Of course, the feeling of being recognized by everyone and being the center of attention is still quite nice.
"Oh? A Munchlax? Your Pokémon is quite rare. This kind of Pokémon also rarely gets sick. Tell me about it?"
In response to the doctor's questions, Ye Yinchuan, holding the Pokémon egg, approached him.
"It's this egg, Dr. Hu. It seems to be weakening; I'd like to ask you to treat it."
Although the other party used "you" repeatedly, it always felt too formal and polite, so Ye Yinchuan preferred to use "you".
"A Pokémon egg? No problem."
Seeing that Ye Yinchuan seemed concerned, Dr. Hu didn't waste any words.
He took out his stethoscope and listened to the egg:
"The fetal heartbeat is very weak and erratic; it's definitely a sign of weakness. But are you sure you want to save this Pokémon egg? The cost might exceed the egg's price..."
Dr. Hu reminded him.
Treating Pokémon eggs, especially those weakened like this, is more difficult than treating the Pokémon itself.
"I'm sure."
Ye Yinchuan did not hesitate at all.
He was willing to pay a huge price to save this "shiny" Owlman's egg, even if it meant going bankrupt.
"Okay, I plan to have an ultrasound."
As he spoke, Dr. Hu had the nurse carry the Pokémon egg behind the curtain.
There's an instrument there.
Immediately afterwards, Dr. Hu took out a Poké Ball and released a Pokémon.
"This is... a Zubat?"
Ye Yinchuan was taken aback when he saw the bat-shaped Pokémon in front of him.
This Pokémon is entirely dark blue, with purple inside its ears and wing membranes.
It has no eyes, four sharp teeth, no hands or feet, and two thin, long tails.
As soon as it came out, it flew away with a thud.
Although it has no eyes, it is very sensitive and will not wander around aimlessly.
"Go, Ultrasonic Bat, have an ultrasound examination of this egg."
Dr. Hu fitted a device onto the ultrasonic bat.
This device can receive the echoes of ultrasonic bats and use the echoes to create images on a specific instrument to determine some conditions inside the patient's body.
Ye Yinchuan suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a similar scene in the Pokémon anime.
Not only that, there are other Pokémon examples as well.
For example, Hao Li uses his own strength to perform massage;
The silk spun by the orb-weaver spider can be used to bandage wounds;
Mare the sheep can generate its own electricity to provide electrotherapy services...
I believe there must be a similar situation in the world of Pokémon.
It's not that human technology is insufficient to create convenient machines.
Rather, Pokémon offers better value for money and has already formed a mutually beneficial ecosystem with humans.
"Hmm... the situation is indeed not optimistic. If you had come a few hours later, it might have been much more serious. You'll need a lot of extra nutrition and some treatment for the bacteria. I'll prescribe the medication now and then teach you how to care for it."
However, you should be prepared that even if a weak egg can be saved, the chances of it hatching successfully are lower, and it may even hatch into an unhealthy chick.
"No problem, Dr. Hu. I won't give up as long as there's hope."
Ye Yinchuan also glanced at it; the image on the instrument was not clear, and only a professional could probably understand it.
It's impossible to determine a Pokémon's breed and aptitude using ultrasound alone.
"You are so kind-hearted."
The nurse standing nearby couldn't help but praise her, her eyes sparkling with admiration.
Young, handsome, kind-hearted, responsible, and a skilled Pokémon hypnotist...
As a single girl, it's hard not to be tempted.
Ye Yinchuan smiled amicably, without responding to the other person's gaze.
The nurse understood immediately and quickly brought the medicine needed to treat the Pokémon egg.
Bottles and jars, a whole bunch of them.
After Dr. Hu demonstrated and explained it to Ye Yinchuan in detail:
"The whole process is rather complicated and may take almost half an hour, so please do it yourself. Be sure to wipe and rub slowly to allow the medicine to be absorbed gradually. Leave at least five minutes between each type of medicine..."
"Understood."
Ye Yinchuan meticulously wrote down the process and sequence.
The treatment of this egg was more difficult, or rather, much more complicated than he had imagined.
However, since he had already decided to do it, he had to be responsible to the end, and he did not slack off in the slightest.
"Owlwood, you're such a troublesome little devil. You haven't even hatched yet, and you've already made me go through all this trouble."
After completing the tedious application of medicine, Ye Yinchuan felt a bit sore in his neck and hands, and couldn't help but grumble a little.
"You must live a healthy and long life, and hatch as soon as possible. I want you to know the power of my Heavenly Hands!"
As he said this, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but think to himself.
If we replace "Wooden Rowlet" with that idol girl "Minami Kotori," the atmosphere becomes somewhat ambiguous and subtle...
How should I put it? A "raising-a-beauty" type?
The key issue is that this [Heavenly Hand] technique seems a bit off when used on a humanoid character.
The issue with the Woodowlet Egg has been temporarily resolved.
Ye Yinchuan arrived empty-handed, accompanied by his little Snorlax.
When I went back, I brought an egg and a large bag of medicine.
Before arriving home, Ye Yinchuan received a call from the live animal transport company to confirm whether he was home and then adjust the delivery time.
Ye Yinchuan had just arrived home and settled the Wood Owl's egg when the doorbell rang.
"We've finally arrived!"
I'm feeling a little excited right now.
I had originally planned to stay home today and properly welcome Ugly Fish.
I didn't expect that after watching a live stream, I would go out and bring back Rowlet's egg.
Let's consider this a double celebration!
Upon opening the door, Ye Yinchuan saw a staff member dressed in a "Pokémon Delivery" uniform, carrying a Machoke and an aquarium covered with blackout film, who greeted him enthusiastically:
"Dear customer, your beloved Pokémon is inside. Please check through the blackout film to see if the Pokémon is healthy and energetic, and whether there has been any 'misplaced escort' incident. The included Poké Ball and a bag of Pokémon food are also included. If everything is in order, please sign for it!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but nod.
The service was very good, and the more I think about it, the more worthwhile it feels.
"The blackout film is specially provided so that your Pokémon can adapt to its surroundings during delivery. Since you chose the premium shipping option priced at 2000 yuan, the blackout film comes with a scenic view of the lake. Once you get home, you can gradually peel off the blackout film to allow your Pokémon to adjust to its new environment."
"Oh? Is that so?"
Ye Yinchuan knew that Pokémon could also experience stress responses due to rapid changes in their environment, which could cause psychological or physiological discomfort.
Especially in the case of long-distance transportation.
Blackout film is indeed a good solution, but having a lake view all along is a bit too much.
Ye Yinchuan tore open a bit of the blackout film and saw the ugly fish inside.
Even though I was mentally prepared, I still couldn't help but be startled.
That pockmarked face was almost touching mine, with thick lips and sunken, lifeless eyes...
If you didn't know better, you'd think it was a ghost face. No wonder it's the ugliest of all the ugly fish.
There's absolutely no mistake, this is the Ugly Fish I wanted—
It's ugly, but it makes me feel at ease!
Seeing Ye Yinchuan's reaction, the deliveryman couldn't help but glance at him, and immediately couldn't hold the bag anymore:
"Oh my god, bro, what kind of Pokémon is that? It looks weird!"
Seemingly realizing that it was impolite to say that, the other person immediately smiled and said:
"Brother, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that your Pokémon is very unique, and I couldn't help but admire it."
"It's nothing, I'm an ugly fish. The uglier the better, even I'm scared of myself, let alone you!"
Ye Yinchuan smiled and said.
He's not the kind of person who holds a grudge over the slightest offense.
"Felfin... what a rare Pokémon. Oh, and there's something else I should tell you: our aquarium is equipped with an oxygen supply system; just plug it in and it works. Although Pokémon are incredibly resilient, a good oxygen supply helps them grow and makes their lives more comfortable."
"Okay, thank you."
Ye Yinchuan signed for the package, and the other party even helped install the aquarium.
Looking at the torn corner of the blackout film, and the Ugly Fish that occasionally came over to examine its new environment.
Let's take another look at the Woodowlet egg placed to the side.
Ye Yinchuan felt that his home seemed to have become more lively again.
"This ugly fish is bold in personality and slow in nature... It's the kind of fish that's pretty thick-skinned and adapts to new environments very quickly."
Ye Yinchuan recalled that this ugly fish had startled others when he was fishing with the "Never Go Home Empty-Handed" motto.
They stayed there and wouldn't leave, so they were pulled out of the water and dragged away, which was kind of funny.
"Speaking of which, why did 'Never Go Home Empty-Handed' suddenly catch so many fish that day? Was it related to the ugly fish? Or was it just a coincidence?"
Ye Yinchuan's thoughts drifted for a moment, then he quickly brought them back to reality.
"Starting today, I can document my Pokémon and then upload short videos online."
Ye Yinchuan thought to himself.
He wants to document the entire process of Feebas evolving into Milotic.
Presumably, this process will attract a lot of fans and increase traffic to their live stream!
There's a saying...
I don't look at ugly things, but if something is particularly ugly, then I'll take a look.
Ye Yinchuan believed that his ugly fish should still have some highlights.
As for whether UglyFish will be cyberbullied...
Feebas doesn't know how to use the internet, and it doesn't care what people say. Once it evolves into Milotic, won't it just get slapped in the face?
Even if we take a step back and assume that increased traffic to the live stream means more money earned from it, then...
In the end, we still need to buy food for the pufferfish and provide it with the resources needed for training to speed up its leveling and evolution!
Water-type Pokémon, especially non-amphibious ones like Feebas, are quite difficult to train, since they require water.
If you don't have your own swimming pool or can't go to natural waters, you can only go to a dedicated Pokémon swimming center. A ticket there costs 50 yuan per person or one Pokémon for an afternoon. Although long-term memberships are cheaper, the difference isn't that much...
This is also an expense.
Besides, sometimes I can't just bring Ugly Fish and not the other family members to play, right?
Litten is a Fire-type and might not like water, but Snorlax would probably be very happy to go swimming...
Given Munchlax's size, I wonder if it will cost double?
In short, Ye Yinchuan remained calm about the matter.
After all, going to the swimming pool and training with the ugly fish is not only a good way to exercise, but also a way to relax and unwind.
Sitting in front of the computer to do live broadcasts day after day puts a lot of pressure on my neck and spine.
In the water, you can finally relax.
Of course, Ye Yinchuan's swimming skills are average; he can only float in the water.
Excellent Water-type Pokémon trainers generally have excellent water skills.
Although Ye Yinchuan doesn't need to compete with professional trainers, he still learns some swimming techniques while training Ugly Fish.
Ye Yinchuan has quite a few ideas for the future—
That means once I've made enough money from live streaming, I'll buy a big villa.
The door frame should be made large so that even if Snorlax evolves into Snorlax, it can move freely in the house without being restricted.
There needs to be a super big swimming pool for the ugly fish to live in.
Of course, by then it might already be Milotic.
Ye Yinchuan even had an idea: to build a network of interconnected waterways in his villa.
In this way, even water-type Pokémon that are not amphibious will not be confined to the water.
That's how it is.
There must also be a large garden so that Grass-type Pokémon like Rowlet can feel the embrace of nature from home.
Litten cats also have enough space to move around and play, and they are not restricted by their dwellings. They can jump and run around without any problems.
The villa's location definitely needs to be good, with fresh air and plenty of natural light...
Cough cough, Ye Yinchuan glanced at the time and it was almost seven o'clock.
"It's getting dark, so let's end this daydream here. Although my livestreaming career is booming and my popularity is rising with each stream..."
But achieving that goal will require a period of hard work! For a better future, to support this family, let's work hard and start broadcasting on time!
Ye Yinchuan encouraged himself.
Although he jokingly called it a pipe dream, Ye Yinchuan was actually very confident that he had a chance to achieve it.
Imagining the future can actually motivate us more!
"Click!"
Seeing its owner smiling and looking so energetic, the little Snorlax was also infected by their emotions.
At the same time, it also knew that its owner was about to start working.
After asking for a hug and some petting, the little Snorlax greeted Feebas for a while and then simply lay down in front of Feebas's aquarium.
I lay on my side in a very comfortable sleeping position, using my head as a pillow, admiring this new friend.
Besides often appearing dazed, the feline fish can also be quite energetic at times, swimming back and forth in the aquarium and then pressing its face against the glass, as if greeting a Munchlax.
"Let's get along well."
Before he could even properly interact with the newcomer, the ugly fish, Ye Yinchuan sprinkled some of the fish's special food and started preparing for his live stream.
"Wow, I already have 10,000 followers?"
Ye Yinchuan looked at his account and was somewhat surprised.
At the same time, he also noticed the message sent by "Crazy Little Wind" in his private messages.
In his recent live streams, Ye Yinchuan hasn't been paying close attention to his private messages.
The main problem is that I'm receiving so many private messages that I simply can't keep up with them all.
On the other hand, this Kuang Xiaofeng keeps sending me messages from time to time, which can be described as tireless.
"So it was him."
Ye Yinchuan's heart stirred. He remembered that not long after he started his live stream, someone sent him a message and a gift.
Although it's just a high-end fishing rod costing 100 yuan.
But at that time, it was a great support for Ye Yinchuan, who had just started broadcasting.
At the time, Kuang Xiaofeng said he would use clips from his live streams to create short videos.
Ye Yinchuan had always remembered this incident, but he hadn't taken it too seriously. Now, looking at it now, he realized that Kuang Xiaofeng had gone from having just over two hundred followers to becoming a major streamer with over twenty thousand followers...
"This is outrageous! They used clips from my livestream to gain followers faster than I did! That's outrageous!"
Although Ye Yinchuan said that.
But I also sincerely congratulate this friend.
His private messages were mostly about what live stream clips he had made, how much he had earned, and sharing the joy of the videos going viral.
Looking at the messages, Ye Yinchuan felt a special kind of emotion.
It can be said that although Kuang Xiaofeng also made video clips of other streamers, he basically became popular by making video clips of his own live streams.
As for Kuang Xiaofeng's fan base growing faster than his own, Ye Yinchuan could only conclude that it was a middleman making a profit...
After all, some people prefer watching short videos to watching live streams.
But there was nothing to complain about. Ye Yinchuan wasn't envious at all; in fact, he was somewhat grateful to Kuang Xiaofeng.
After all, the traffic from live streaming is much more conservative and takes much longer to grow than that from short videos.
Kuang Xiaofeng's videos are all used to drive traffic to his live stream.
These past two days, even after I went offline, my fan base has continued to grow, probably because a large portion of them came from watching Kuang Xiaofeng's videos.
The relationship between the two is one of cooperation and mutual benefit.
That being said, this is also one of the reasons why Ye Yinchuan wanted to film Ugly Fish and make short videos himself.
Drive traffic, drive traffic aggressively!
In this era, traffic is king, and traffic equals money!
After replying to Kuang Xiaofeng's message and clicking "follow each other," Ye Yinchuan opened his live stream.
There are already quite a few viewers waiting for him to start his broadcast, and the barrage of comments is also floating around.
Ye Yinchuan changed the title of his live stream to: "[The first day Feebas arrived home! Come see if you've seen it before! Free online Pokémon appraisal! Pokémon treasures!]"
In his spare time, Ye Yinchuan also researched how to increase the traffic to his live stream.
One thing he recently figured out is that the title is very important.
After all, some viewers clicked in based on the title of the live stream.
This is something I haven't paid much attention to.
The Ugly Fish just arrived, which can be used as a gimmick to attract viewers.
People in this world are still quite unfamiliar with the ugly fish.
Furthermore, Ye Yinchuan firmly believes that whether it's short videos or live streaming rooms, it's all possible.
The day my Feebas evolves into Milotic will definitely be the day I get the most attention!
It can be said that Ye Yinchuan is playing a long game!
It's 7 o'clock, time to start the broadcast!
As soon as the live stream started, the chat became incredibly busy.
"Things have really changed now! From today onwards, I, Ye Yinchuan, am a streamer with 10,000 followers!"
Ye Yinchuan thought to himself, a smile involuntarily creeping onto his lips.
This is a very pleasant, new beginning.
I don't know if it's because I've reached 10,000 followers, but the initial traffic to the live stream was significantly higher than before!
"Cool!"
Ye Yinchuan suddenly realized that short videos, live streams, and even works like comics and novels all followed a pattern—
That's "winner-takes-all"!
The more popular something is, the more money it can make for the platform, and the more traffic the platform is willing to give it!
Therefore, what is most important for Ye Yinchuan, who is still in the early stages?
That means broadcasting it aggressively! Stealing all that traffic!
Then grow rapidly and climb up step by step!
"If it's a winner-takes-all game, then why can't I be the winner!"
At this moment, Ye Yinchuan was confident and ambitious, radiating vitality.
[If you clicked on this because of the title, where is the Ugly Fish?]
Wow, I think I see it! It looks like a human face! Is it really a Pokémon?
Ye Yinchuan could also sense that the title of his live stream was playing a role.
Ye Yinchuan briefly interacted with the comments section.
The main purpose is to refute and explain.
First, Feebas is a Pokémon.
Secondly, although the ugly fish is not good-looking now, it will become very beautiful after evolution.
At this point, Ye Yinchuan knew it was time to move on to the next phase.
Anyone want to connect? Free treasure hunting!
Among the numerous bullet comments, Ye Yinchuan quickly noticed one that seemed rather interesting—
[Hey streamer, connect with me! I found a really special little fire dragon! It's really special! You've definitely never seen one like it before!]
Upon hearing this, Ye Yinchuan narrowed his eyes and leaned back tactically:
"A very special little fire dragon? I'll see just how special it is! You're the one!"
It's still three chapters combined into one. Ugly Fish and Woody Owl's eggs have all arrived home, so the transition is complete in one go. The new live stream will start right away!
(End of this chapter)
