Chapter 176 - Chapter 176: Enhancing Nidoking's Talent

In the morning, after Jiang Chen woke up, he signed in. Although he didn't get anything particularly good, this time he received two sign-in gift packages. After signing in today, he could claim a weekly sign-in package and a monthly sign-in package. The two packages arrived together.

"I wonder what these two packages will contain this time." Jiang Chen rubbed his hands. He wasn't particularly looking forward to the weekly sign-in package. After all, he had opened it so many times, and the good things he actually obtained were few and far between.

[Ding, weekly sign-in package opened successfully. Obtained: 1 million points!]

"One million points, barely acceptable. This weekly sign-in package isn't bad."

"I'll put my hopes on the monthly sign-in package."

Jiang Chen's eyes held anticipation.

"Give me a divine beast's Poké Egg."

After praying to the Jade Emperor and the Three Pure Ones in his heart, Jiang Chen chose to open the monthly sign-in package.

[Ding, monthly sign-in package opened successfully. Congratulations to host for obtaining: Talent Potential Boost Fruit (Champion)]

"This... my luck is a bit poor." Jiang Chen's eyes showed some disappointment. It was even worse than the Adamant Orb he got last time. Although the Adamant Orb was useless to him, its value was at least higher than this talent potential boost fruit.

The Adamant Orb was worth several 2.6 billion points in the system's store. And this Talent Potential Boost Fruit, even if it could raise talent potential to Champion level, was only worth three million points. His luck this time was not good; it was very bad.

"I really shouldn't have prayed to the Three Pure Ones. I should have prayed to the God of the System." Although disappointed, this item was useful to Jiang Chen, unlike the Adamant Orb, which was precious but unusable.

Jiang Chen's Pokémon, relying on the Plates to enhance their talent, mostly had Champion-level talent, but some hadn't reached Champion-level talent. For example, Venusaur, which only had Quasi-Elite talent, and the Scyther that voluntarily followed him, that Scyther only had Elite Four-level talent.

There was also Jiang Chen's Nidoqueen. Nidoqueen trained very hard, but due to its talent potential, its current strength had fallen behind other Pokémon. Effort sometimes truly couldn't overcome talent, not to mention that Jiang Chen's other Pokémon not only had good talent but also worked very hard.

"Who should eat this fruit?" Jiang Chen felt a slight headache. Logically, Venusaur needed it most. After its strength reached Quasi-Elite Nine-Stage, if its potential wasn't increased, then no matter how much Venusaur trained, its strength would no longer improve.

But Nidoqueen's diligence also made Jiang Chen greatly appreciate her. Moreover, Nidoqueen was one of the Pokémon he caught earlier. Speaking of affection, Jiang Chen's feelings for Nidoqueen were deeper than for Venusaur.

"It's decided, I'll give it to Nidoqueen." Jiang Chen was not an indecisive person. He quickly made a decision, giving this Talent Potential Boost Fruit to Nidoqueen. As for Venusaur, he would first buy a King-level Talent Potential Boost Fruit from the system's store.

That would be enough for Venusaur for now. If he could obtain a Champion-level Talent Potential Boost Fruit in the future, he would then use it on Venusaur. If he truly couldn't obtain one, he would exchange for it in the system store later.

Then Jiang Chen purchased a Talent Potential Boost Fruit from the system store. It was only King-level, so the price wasn't particularly high, just five hundred thousand points. Although he needed to accumulate points to buy divine beasts, five hundred thousand points was still affordable.

"Come out, Nidoqueen." He first released Nidoqueen. Jiang Chen took out the Talent Potential Boost Fruit.

"Nido~!" Nidoqueen, released by Jiang Chen, looked at the Talent Potential Boost Fruit in Jiang Chen's hand. Its alluring scent immediately attracted it. Not just a simple scent, the fruit itself had a strong allure for Pokémon.

"Nidoqueen, you should be familiar with this fruit, right? This is something that can boost your talent potential." Jiang Chen had fed it to Nidoqueen before. Initially, Nidoqueen's talent potential was only Quasi-Elite level. It was after eating a King-level Talent Potential Boost Fruit that its talent potential increased to King-level.

"After eating this, your talent potential won't be inferior to Slaking or Tyranitar. Work hard from now on, okay?" Saying that, Jiang Chen directly handed the Talent Potential Boost Fruit to Nidoqueen.

"Nido." Nidoqueen was very excited, looking at Jiang Chen with emotion. I must redouble my efforts to improve my strength and fight for my trainer in the future, repaying my master. After opening its mouth wide, Nidoqueen directly ate the Talent Potential Boost Fruit, swallowing it without chewing.

[Nidoqueen]

Gender: Female

Strength: Elite Two-Stage

Talent Potential: Champion

Attributes: Poison, Ground

Ability: Poison Point

Moves: Growl, Scratch, Poison Sting, Bite, Toxic, Dig, Sludge Wave...

After eating it, its talent potential directly became Champion. With Nidoqueen's diligence and dedication to strength, even without the help of Plates, it would definitely reach Champion-level in the future.

Moreover, in the future, Jiang Chen might obtain a Poison-type Plate or a Ground-type Plate. In the future, it might even be possible to collect a full set of Plates. Nidoqueen herself also clearly felt that she was a bit different now. She intimately nudged her head against Jiang Chen.

"Go train, Nidoqueen. Work harder in the future." Jiang Chen stroked Nidoqueen's head. Nidoqueen was instantly full of motivation. After Nidoqueen went to train, Jiang Chen released Venusaur.

Taking out the Talent Potential Boost Fruit he bought from the system, Jiang Chen handed this fruit to Venusaur. "This can boost your talent potential, making you stronger. Eat it." Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Venusaur felt a slight excitement in its heart. It unhesitatingly swallowed this Talent Potential Boost Fruit, something that could boost its potential.

[Venusaur]

Gender: Male

Strength: Quasi-Elite Nine-Stage

Talent Potential: Elite Four

Ability: Overgrow

Moves: Tackle, Vine Whip, Sleep Powder, Leech Seed, Razor Leaf, Synthesis, Petal Dance, Solar Beam...

"In the future, when your strength reaches Elite Four Nine-Stage, I will give you an even better fruit, to boost your talent potential to Champion level." Jiang Chen promised Venusaur. This was not an empty promise.

Jiang Chen would truly boost Venusaur's talent potential to Champion level in the future. If he could obtain a Champion-level Talent Potential Boost Fruit earlier, it would also allow Venusaur to boost its talent potential to Champion level sooner.

"Ba-na~!" After its talent was boosted, Venusaur was also full of motivation. The previous Venusaur, because its strength could no longer be improved, had become somewhat dejected. Now, it had finally rekindled its fighting spirit, which once again soared.

"You go train with Nidoqueen." Then, Jiang Chen released all his Pokémon, letting them all go train.

"Oh, you two are up so early." When Jiang Chen returned to the living room, Ling Wanqiu and Xiao Luoxue were already up.

"Waking up so early is naturally due to your influence." Having spent time with Jiang Chen in the wilderness recently, they were used to waking up so early. They also released their Pokémon, letting them train. When training Pokémon with Jiang Chen, they were clearly much more serious than when training their Pokémon alone.

"Young Master, breakfast is ready," Ning Ya said to Jiang Chen. At this moment, breakfast was already laid out on the table. "Let's eat breakfast first." Jiang Chen rubbed his stomach, feeling a little hungry. After breakfast, Jiang Chen called his Pokémon over and prepared food for them. "Continue training after eating."

"What are you two doing?" Seeing Ling Wanqiu and Xiao Luoxue looking up something on the computer, Jiang Chen walked over and sat beside them.

"Isn't the Hidden Dragon Cup Trainer Tournament about to begin? So I'm looking up information on the participants." Ling Wanqiu said to Jiang Chen. Knowing oneself and one's enemy leads to victory.

They didn't have Jiang Chen's confidence. Jiang Chen didn't worry about any opponent, because he had the strength. But Ling Wanqiu and Xiao Luoxue were different. Their strength was not considered top-tier among all participants. There were definitely many participants stronger than them.
