Lumiose City, Professor Sycamore's Lab.
This time, coming to Professor Sycamore's Lab with Steven, Li Wei could gain entry easily.
Though Steven was also a reason.
"It's truly marvelous!"
Dr. Platanus appeared from who knows where, circling Diancie with such speed that neither Li Wei nor Steven could clearly see him.
"It's truly marvelous!"
It was only because Lucario and the others already knew Dr. Platanus, and Diancie showed no signs of resistance...
Otherwise, no matter what, Lucario would have to use his Bone Rush to push Dr. Platanus away.
Diancie looked at Dr. Platanus, also sensing knowledge and wisdom from him.
After the initial excitement of meeting, Dr. Platanus finally calmed down a bit.
"Li Wei, Steven, how did you two come together?"
...
"This is Diancie, the princess of the Diamond Domain described in ancient texts? It's truly marvelous!"
One can only say that Dr. Platanus truly lives up to his reputation as the "Subarashii" Doctor, with "It's truly marvelous!" constantly on his lips.
Of course, if it weren't for appearances, Steven's excitement was actually no less than Dr. Platanus's.
Dr. Platanus's assistants were also drawn to Diancie, who shimmered just by standing there.
Steven shook his head, "Perhaps this is not the same individual as recorded in the ancient texts, or perhaps not the same Family."
"For the details, let Li Wei explain."
Li Wei then described the environment of the underground mineral vein where Diancie and the Carbink lived.
Dr. Platanus stroked his chin, "A Diancie born from a Carbink Family of thirty Carbink individuals..."
Just as Steven had speculated, Dr. Platanus also believed that this Diancie was not from the same Family as recorded in the ancient texts.
"How was Diancie born...
This is truly a topic worth researching!"
Although the discovery of Diancie was enough to surprise Dr. Platanus, this was not his area of expertise.
"Speaking of the relationship between Carbink and Diancie, we still need to consult Professor Oak and Professor Professor Rowan."
One is the foremost figure in Pokemon research,
The other is a Doctor specializing in Pokemon Evolution.
Dr. Platanus truly couldn't think of anyone more suitable than them.
Although he wasn't skilled in this area,
Dr. Platanus knew that the relationship between Carbink and Diancie should not be Evolution.
Dr. Platanus looked at Li Wei, "You came here to fulfill our agreement, right?"
Li Wei nodded: "Yes, I have already obtained the Lucarionite."
Dr. Platanus smiled: "I saw it."
Dr. Platanus not only saw the ite on Lucario's wrist but also witnessed the battle between Li Wei and Elite Siebold.
The battle between Li Wei and Siebold was very popular,
Dr. Platanus, being someone who enjoys browsing Eevee Net, naturally saw it.
Li Wei's popularity in the Kalos region also soared because of this battle, which is why so many people recognized him.
Soon, Dr. Platanus demonstrated the proper professionalism of a Doctor.
Dr. Platanus led them to the data collection laboratory, where he and a researcher equipped Lucario with instruments.
The room was spacious and bright, filled with monitors and instruments, and the indicator lights of multiple devices flickered.
After Lucario was fitted with the monitoring equipment, researchers Albie and Chloe's fingers rapidly tapped on a virtual keyboard.
Seeing Lucario curiously looking at the instruments and wires on him, Dr. Platanus softly said:
"Don't worry, these instruments won't harm you; Garchomp and others have worn them too."
Garchomp, who had been by Dr. Platanus's side, nodded, "Gaaar!"
Diancie and Shaymin watched with curiosity.
Li Wei's gaze, however, remained fixed on the screen.
Steven also softly said: "Metagross, Aggron, and I have all helped Dr. Platanus collect data; there's no problem."
Assistant Armand first gave an OK sign,
"Doctor, Lucario's original data has been collected, and his Aura is stable."
The control panel display began to scroll through Lucario's physical scan data,
Heart rate, respiratory rate, real-time Aura energy,
Estimated values for base strength, speed, and endurance, etc...
If Ash were here, he would definitely say:
"The power of science is truly great."
Li Wei silently added, hopefully, it won't explode.
Dr. Platanus is not the explosion-prone genius Citron.
Researcher Chloe then added: "Life signs stable, energy stable."
After reviewing Lucario's basic data, Dr. Platanus nodded, "Very good basic data."
In the testing area, a punch machine, like those found in amusement parks, suddenly appeared.
Dr. Platanus looked at Li Wei,
"Li Wei, next, use the moves,
Comet Punch, Drain Punch, then Power-Up Punch."
After recording the basic data and three punch forces,
Dr. Platanus nodded slightly:
"Now, Mega Evolve Lucario."
"Lucario, Mega Evolution!"
Li Wei pressed the key stone on his glove,
Dazzling light simultaneously burst forth from the key stone and the Lucarionite.
When the white light covered Lucario's entire body...
Both the basic data and Aura showed a trend of exponential growth for Mega Lucario.
The indicator lights on the display turned from green to red, and a beeping sound rang out, "Aura energy amplification, 247%!"
Armand exclaimed, "What an astonishing increase!"
Additionally, the entire instrument in the field was comprehensively recording all of Mega Lucario's data,
Chloe was comparing it with Lucario's original data and listing them one by one.
"Height 1.43 m, 1.66 m after Mega Evolution."
"Weight 63.4 kg..."
...
Dr. Platanus commanded again: "Just like before, Comet Punch, Drain Punch, then Power-Up Punch."
It had been some time since Lucario last used Power-Up Punch, so the effect of Power-Up Punch had worn off.
Therefore, it would not interfere with data recording.
Armand loudly stated:
"Comet Punch is 107.8% higher than its original state,
...
"Power-Up Punch is 106.7% higher than its original state,
Slightly 6-8 percentage points higher than the Adaptability ability in the database, exceeding the quantified expectation!"
"Take a break, then test again!"
Fearing Li Wei might not understand, Dr. Platanus explained:
"Generally, Pokemon with the Adaptability ability will fluctuate around 100%, with no more than a 1% difference,
Occasionally, some exceptionally talented ones will have a 3%-5% difference, but a 7%-8% difference like this is my first time seeing it."
"By the way, Steven's Mega Metagross's amplification exceeded the quantified 5.4%."
"Next, we'll test special attack moves, Flash Cannon and Aura Sphere!"
