"Artificial Pokémon?"
Looking at this comment, Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
When it comes to man-made Pokémon, the first one that comes to his mind is actually Mewtwo.
In theory, Mewtwo is a clone of Mew in the Pokémon universe. Although it cannot transform into any Pokémon like Mew, it possesses incredibly formidable fighting power.
This is probably the only man-made mythical beast.
Oh, you mean "Attribute: Empty" and Silvally?
Although it's officially classified as a legendary Pokémon.
But in the minds of Ye Yinchuan and many others, that thing was somewhat lowbrow.
If we're to barely call it a legendary Pokémon, it's at most a level two god, while Mewtwo is a level one god.
The only thing worth praising is that it can change its many attributes, just like Arceus.
It seems that it was created to imitate Arceus.
Therefore, it is also jokingly called the "Little Creator God," but as for the value of this title... well, that's hard to say.
Besides that, Ye Yinchuan also thought of some Pokémon that were clearly man-made from ancient times.
For example, Magearna, in the Pokémon universe, is a man-made Pokémon from 500 years ago, and its appearance has faded.
There are also clay figurines and clay giants, which are said to have been made of clay by ancient civilizations.
Similar concepts exist for psychic clay idols.
"What else?"
A series of associations arose in Ye Yinchuan's mind.
"By the way, Ditto... the origin of that thing is also a mystery. It's said to be a byproduct of an attempt to clone Mew. After all, Ditto, like Mew, can transform into any Pokémon. It's the opposite of Mewtwo, having the ability to transform, but not strong enough in battle."
"And there's Electrode and Voltorb, they look so much like Poké Balls. They were supposedly found at the company that makes Poké Balls, could they be some kind of accidental discovery?"
have to say.
The concept of artificial Pokémon gave Ye Yinchuan a lot to think about.
He also became curious about this comment, wondering if the other person had encountered some kind of artificial Pokémon.
"You're the one."
Ye Yinchuan chose to connect.
[You have approved the connection request from user "Digimon"!]
[Connection successful!]
With the prompt, the scene appears on the screen.
But the picture quality is a bit strange, like an old video playing on an old computer screen.
Is this some new special effect?
This looks a bit creepy...
The picture quality is like a dream...
Ye Yinchuan frowned as well: "Hello, Digimon?"
He didn't understand what was going on, but he still tried to say hello.
The screen flickered, followed by a jumble of random characters resembling snowflakes, along with some program code and a series of numbers and letters of unknown meaning.
Could it be poisoning?
Is Douyin (TikTok) acting up?
[It feels like a prank...]
Just as the comments section was buzzing with discussion, a voice came from the other side.
It's a very strange, mechanical voice, and you can't tell if it's male or female.
"Snorlax... Hello... I'm Digimon, and I'd like to ask you a question about artificial Pokémon... Do you believe that artificial Pokémon exist in this world?"
This is accompanied by this problem.
The barrage of comments exploded.
[How strange, why would anyone ask such a question? How could there possibly be man-made Pokémon?!]
【Don't you guys find this weird...? This visual, this sound, and this question? Is the person on the other end a fake?】
[It seems some scientists attempted to revive fossils using cloning technology, and apparently succeeded? Would the revived Pokémon be considered man-made?]
[Upstairs, that definitely doesn't count. At most, it's an artificially cloned Pokémon, right?]
Ye Yinchuan also found the current events unbelievable.
It doesn't look like a special effect, but could Douyin really malfunction or be infected by a virus?
It is, after all, one of the largest live streaming platforms.
"I believe that artificial Pokémon definitely exist. Whether it is ancient civilizations or modern scientists and researchers, no one has given up exploring Pokémon."
Perhaps some ancient civilizations have already achieved this. As for modern times, I believe that while our technology and civilization may have developed in a different direction, they are not necessarily inferior to those of ancient times. I wouldn't be surprised if man-made Pokémon appeared someday.
However, whether man-made Pokémon will bring benefits or unknown risks is a topic that requires caution and respect.
Ye Yinchuan had no idea what was going on.
But he's not someone who's easily frightened by strange things.
At this point, he also frankly shared his insights on artificial Pokémon.
[As expected of a streamer, their level of thinking is truly exceptional!]
[Did ancient civilizations really exist? I'm starting to doubt it... and ancient people even created Pokémon!]
That's right. Even cloning, let alone man-made things, raises ethical issues!
"You're... absolutely right... There must be man-made Pokémon in this world. Thank you..."
Ye Yinchuan frowned, feeling puzzled.
Why would the other person suddenly thank me? Could my little idea really be that helpful?
[This connection is really strange, even weirder than Ghost-type Pokémon...]
Why are you doing this in broad daylight?
"Who exactly are you?"
Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but ask.
"Actually... I am that... artificial Pokémon, Snorlax... Do you believe me?"
When the other party said those words, the live stream chat exploded.
Do you believe him, or do you believe I'm the league champion?
[Haha! Pokémon are online now, even watching live streams! That's incredible!]
[A new script for the streamer? I've never seen anything like it before! Fresh! Exciting! Thumbs up!]
The comments section is basically full of people who won't believe it.
Or rather, anyone with common sense and basic knowledge would not believe that a Pokémon could go online and claim to be a man-made Pokémon.
But Ye Yinchuan is different; his understanding is different from that of people in this world.
He believes that there must be man-made Pokémon in this world, even man-made Pokémon with considerable intelligence.
"I believe you. Can you tell me your name and who you really are?"
At this moment, Ye Yinchuan quietly activated the ability of [Listening Heart]. If the other party is a Pokémon, it means that he should be able to read their thoughts.
But Ye Yinchuan's pupils contracted.
They've read your mind.
But that inner voice was like a special metallic sound, like the sound of a computer crashing or a machine malfunctioning, like a video being censored and muted—you couldn't make out anything at all.
"The other party is a Pokémon? But who exactly is it? How could it block my ability to hear?"
Ye Yinchuan was not given much time to be surprised.
The other party gave the answer directly:
"Thank you... for trusting me... Of course..."
"Say it!"
[Damn it, is this some kind of charlatan act?]
Ye Yinchuan was also slightly helpless; the other party seemed to have answered, but not completely.
"Since you're willing, please tell me your name, so we can see what you really look like."
"Okay... just be prepared... so you don't get scared by me..."
[Oh my god, is this going to be scary?]
[Interesting, don't disappoint me!]
Many viewers at this point were simply there to watch the spectacle.
Some people, driven by intense curiosity, couldn't resist watching even if they suspected it was a script, wanting to know what the answer was.
Ye Yinchuan also held his breath slightly.
It was all so mysterious that for a moment he even wondered if someone was playing a prank on him.
But the voice I just heard seems to be confirming something.
The Pokémon you're connecting with right now is definitely a Pokémon, or at least there's a special Pokémon at that!
"It's all ready, don't worry."
After Ye Yinchuan said those words.
The screen in front of me suddenly flickered, and the image seemed to disappear abruptly, only to be replaced by another image.
Although the image is dim, it is relatively normal.
There was a room with lots of documents and some building block-like models around it; it seemed to be... a research lab?
Then, an unbelievable scene unfolded.
In the shot, something is seen emerging.
And the direction it emerged from was exactly where the computer screen was...
This situation is hard to describe because a webcam cannot completely capture the computer screen.
However, from that angle, you can see something emerging from the computer screen, its shape and size visible in the peripheral vision of the lens.
【What is this?】
[This is amazing! This angle is incredible!]
[Awesome! This script is awesome!]
Ye Yinchuan also felt his breath catch in his throat, his eyes filled with disbelief.
The first thing that came to his mind was Sadako...
After all, what kind of thing can actually come out of a computer screen?
The second one that comes to mind is Ghost Pokémon.
Theoretically, Ghost Pokémon could also possess Sadako's ability.
then.
Ye Yinchuan gradually began to see clearly part of the Pokémon's body.
The red and blue color scheme looks like blocks and building blocks?
The ability of the app to read its panel also followed.
When you see that Pokémon appear fully in front of the camera, along with the information displayed on the panel.
His identity was no longer a mystery in front of Ye Yinchuan.
"Oh, it's you... I was wondering what it was, all this fuss!"
After confirming the other party's identity, Ye Yinchuan immediately relaxed and even smiled.
Indeed, fear comes from the unknown.
Before finding out what kind of Pokémon it was, Ye Yinchuan was completely taken aback. But once he found out, he immediately felt a sense of familiarity, even a touch of warmth.
But the comments are different.
Even if the Pokémon in front of them were presented in its entirety, it would still be full of mysteries for them.
What is this thing? Is it a toy?
Its eyes are moving, but it doesn't feel alive... Is this really a Pokémon?
It looks like a tank, a duck, a building block... but definitely not like a Pokémon!
The Pokémon in front of us has a very peculiar appearance, just as the comments on the screen have described.
Its body is made of geometric blocks and has only two colors: red and blue.
It looks like a tank, a duck, or building blocks... but it doesn't resemble the Pokémon that people usually see.
It is... the Polygon!
Or rather, Ye Yinchuan preferred the name he was more familiar with—3D Dragon!
"I thought of so many artificial Pokémon, but I never thought of you..."
Ye Yinchuan clicked his tongue inwardly, unsure whether to say that 3D Dragon was unpopular or simply too old for many people to remember.
Of course, when talking about Porygon, we have to mention the famous "Porygon incident" in the Pokémon anime.
The matter is not complicated.
Because the anime featured a large number of intense and rapid flashes of light, many viewers were stimulated and developed photosensitive epilepsy, resulting in hospitalization. As a result, the episode was immediately taken down and banned.
After that, Porygon, also known as 3D Dragon, and its family rarely appeared in anime.
However, for many people, it remains a precious childhood memory.
Wait a minute... the streamer's expression doesn't seem surprised at all by this?
[Oh no, he laughed! Get out of here, everyone! Especially those who have large babies!]
"Kirby, you don't seem... very surprised? I'm a little... taken aback..."
The Porygon makes no mouth movements, and it's unclear where the electronic sounds it makes come from.
Actually, the Porygon in the anime wasn't very mysterious or eerie, which is why Ye Yinchuan felt a sense of familiarity with it.
But in reality, Polygon is still a bit scary.
After all, a Pokémon that possesses intelligence and can communicate with humans online will inevitably remind people of a pseudo-human.
Speaking of which, the case of the Polygon could be considered a kind of artificial intelligence before Ye Yinchuan's transmigration, right?
Even more advanced?
At this moment, Ye Yinchuan thought of Ultron from the Avengers, who was probably an artificial intelligence trying to control the world...
If this multifaceted beast goes out of control, who knows if similar situations will occur.
Ye Yinchuan recalled that Polygons seemed to be able to move around on the network and were also composed of programs.
In theory, wouldn't a multi-sided beast be able to go wherever it wants by following the network cable?
To learn more, Ye Yinchuan also paid attention to the panel of the multi-faceted beast.
Virtual Pokémon: Porygon
[Level: 20]
【Attribute: Normal】
Gender: None
[Racial stats: B-rank (395)]
Individual Value: Grade B (133)
【Feature: Analysis】
Personality: Calm
[Evolution Path: Porygon II - Porygon Z]
[Skills: Impact, Texture, Recycling, Electromagnetic Levitation, Electric Shock, Illusion Ray]
[Status: Curious, Desire to Share]
[Special Trait: Artificial Pokémon]
"However, Porygon's base stats and individual stats actually have specific numerical values..."
Ye Yinchuan wanted to complain.
Logically speaking, no one should have studied Doppelganger, right?
This can only be explained by the fact that the Treasure Appraiser's ability to detect treasures is too powerful.
Of course, there is another possibility.
The creator of Polygon actually conducted extensive testing on Polygon to arrive at its numerical values.
What caught Ye Yinchuan's attention were some details on the Polygon's panel.
Or rather, something that is unique and noteworthy.
"Analyzing this trait, it seems like nobody in this world knows about it? Actually, starfish and peep-mouse might both possess it, but the probability is very small; it's probably a hidden trait that hasn't been discovered yet!"
The "Analysis" trait, in the game, increases the power of the final move.
However, there are some differences in the real world.
Its effect is that after encountering a certain move, one can analyze it, thereby avoiding its advantages and targeting its weaknesses.
Furthermore, it possesses long-term advantages, demonstrating stronger judgment and critical thinking abilities in more areas.
In theory, "analysis" is also a form of analysis that can influence personality traits.
Or rather, only Pokémon with a certain personality can possess the "Analysis" ability.
This goes hand in hand.
"Polygon has two more evolutionary forms, that's interesting."
Ye Yinchuan also remembered.
However, because Porygon has appeared so infrequently, many people are unaware of it, let alone that it has two evolutionary forms...
As for how Polygons evolve in this world, Ye Yinchuan had no idea.
In addition, there's the "Texture" move.
Its effect is that it can change its attributes based on the moves it has learned.
We've already mentioned Sildenafil, and there's also Arceus.
These Pokémon can all change their types.
"Texture" seems to be a move that only Porygon can master.
So, rounding up, would Polygon be considered a minor creator god?
Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but laugh when he thought of this.
But you know what, there's actually some truth to it. Silvally was man-made, and so was Porygon...
Finally, there are traits.
[Special Trait: Artificial Pokémon]
This Pokémon is man-made and possesses many possibilities.
Even with just this one sentence, Ye Yinchuan didn't know what the actual effect of this trait was.
Perhaps, this is a kind of identifier for artificial Pokémon...
Ye Yinchuan was unsure, as this was the first time he had ever seen a man-made Pokémon in this world.
"It was actually quite unexpected..."
Ye Yinchuan said without batting an eye.
Some people say that humans are also a type of Pokémon.
However, according to the principle that "Pokémon don't lie," humans absolutely do not meet this standard.
【What are you surprised about! You're as calm as if you're seeing an old friend!】
[Host, please tell me, what's going on with this Pokémon thing? Please tell me, is this scripted?]
"It's not in the script. You just saw it; it popped out of the screen. How can you act like that? You agree, Polygon."
"How...how do you know my name?"
The multifaceted beast didn't have much variation in tone; it was just a machine-like electronic voice, but it still conveyed a sense of surprise.
Still insisting it's not a script? Isn't that just showing their true colors?
[Laughed, I let the name slip! Hahaha!]
Ye Yinchuan smiled as well.
It was a minor mistake, but nothing serious; we can easily cover it up.
"So your real name is Polygonal Beast? I see you're all polygonal, so that's what I called you..."
Ye Yinchuan pretended to be stupid, fooling the audience.
"I see... Yes, my name is Polygon... You can also call me Zero."
Upon hearing what Polygon said, Ye Yinchuan noticed that there was a white number "zero" on Polygon's head.
It seems that in the anime, the Porygon Unit-00 is just like this; it was the first Porygon to be invented.
"Why don't you introduce yourself?"
Although Ye Yinchuan knew a little about Polygons, he couldn't really say much about them.
Such artificial Pokémon are, in theory, unprecedented in this world.
Therefore, even if one knows, it's difficult to say or explain.
Since the Porygonian can talk, it's fine to let it talk on its own.
"My name is Porygon. I am an artificial Pokémon created by my master, Dr. Ye Qiuyuan, by referring to ancient documents and using data left by ancient civilizations to perform modern transformation and synthesis. My body can transform between data and physical form."
Wow, does this mean there really were ancient civilizations capable of creating Pokémon?
[What's the big deal? Pippi can build spaceships now, so what?]
[Maybe ancient civilizations were actually aliens or something!]
Looking at the comments, Ye Yinchuan nodded.
The viewers in my own live stream have been cultivated by me, and they can remain relatively calm even when they see the strangest Pokémon.
As the saying goes, "What you don't see is strange, what you see is not strange."
"Thanks to the 'alien' for the Poké Ball!"
"Thanks to 'Streamer Script No Skin Swallow' for the fishing rod!"
Ye Yinchuan expressed his gratitude upon seeing the gifts from the audience.
The person who sends the gift is never just the one you connect with online.
For regular online connections, more gifts are given.
If Ye Yinchuan notices, he will express his gratitude.
[Ye Qiuyuan? I did a quick search, and it seems he's a Pokémon professor. He really is researching artificial Pokémon!]
Wow, that sounds pretty credible!
"The doctor invented me hoping that I could drive human technology and contribute to the exploration of the universe in the future. But right now, we are still a long way from achieving that goal."
"The doctor's research is done quietly, and he's unwilling to publish his findings," said Polygon. "I want more people to know about him..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Yinchuan's heart stirred.
Although the voice of the Porygonian beast, the cold machinery, was intermittent.
But from its words, one can hear its feelings for Dr. Ye Qiuyuan.
"Being able to speak, possessing intelligence and emotions, is already a remarkable achievement. You are the doctor's outstanding work. It's just that the doctor didn't publish the research results, perhaps for his own reasons, such as wanting to protect you, or perhaps because it's not yet perfect... Won't making it public now be detrimental to the doctor?"
Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but raise a question.
"Yes...you're right...so after this connection ends, I'll delete all records about me...only you will know I exist...even if you mention it to others, no one will believe you...and..."
[No? Am I the only one who finds this terrifying?]
[Fuck...]
Ye Yinchuan also inexplicably felt a chill, or rather, a threat.
Because these words from the multifaceted beast imply that it possesses immense power, even capable of controlling networks and information.
You know, this is the information age...
If the multi-sided beast harbors malice, or is exploited by certain individuals, the consequences could be disastrous!
Ye Yinchuan suddenly understood why the doctor hadn't yet made his research findings public.
This research finding carries significant potential risks!
"Wait, it said 'and'? And what?!"
Ye Yinchuan was suddenly startled, wondering what the polygonal beast was up to.
"Thank you... Kirby's treasure... I'm satisfied..."
As he spoke, energy surged from the Polygon's body.
A peculiar beam of red and blue light suddenly filled the entire screen.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Yinchuan felt dizzy.
Everything before my eyes was like a distorted, decoded image, becoming bizarre and fantastical...
Ye Yinchuan seemed to know what the polygonal beast was planning to do.
Update is here! The Porygon (3D Dragon) storyline is basically over! I've got enough monthly passes, thank you everyone!
