After a delicious meal at the Trainer Hall's cafeteria, Zhou Yuan bid farewell to Li Tao.

"Uncle Li, I'll head back now and come again tomorrow."

"Alright, go home. Be careful on your way back. Remember to come tomorrow. Feiyong, go see him off."

Upon receiving his father's instruction, Li Feiyong escorted Zhou Yuan out of the Trainer Hall. Only after watching Zhou Yuan get into his car and drive away did Li Feiyong turn around and head home.

Back at the Trainer Hall, Li Feiyong saw his father and senior brother chatting about something. He leaned in to listen and realized they were talking about Zhou Yuan.

"Yishan, what do you think of Zhou Yuan?"

"Master, I find him quite interesting. His Pokémon are also very well-trained. Last year, at this stage, my starter Pokémon had just entered the ordinary level. Even if Junior Brother could reach the late ordinary level at this stage, it was because Timburr had been training in the Trainer Hall for a long time."

"Regardless of how Zhou Yuan's Pokémon are trained, at least he is very humble and not complacent just because his strength is superior to Trainers at the same stage."

Zhu Yishan expressed his opinion of Zhou Yuan, and Li Tao nodded frequently in agreement.

"This kid's character should be good. After all, he's Yongming's junior. His tactical awareness and command are also good."

Just as he was speaking, he saw Li Feiyong stealthily creeping closer and turned to fire at him:

"Look at you, and then look at Xiao Yuan. You're both the same age, so why is there such a big difference?"

Li Feiyong: ????

On another note, Zhou Yuan returned to the ranch after a half-hour car ride.

Upon returning to the ranch, Zhou Yuan was a little surprised to find that Zhou Father and Zhou Mu had both arrived.

The two of them showered Zhou Yuan with care and after chatting for over an hour, Zhou Father and Zhou Mu said they would come to see him again in a few days, then drove home without mentioning anything about Zhou Yuan returning home.

Zhou Yuan was a bit confused, "Huh? Why do I feel like these two have forgotten I'm their son?"

It was another day of filial piety.

After seeing his parents off, Zhou Yuan turned and borrowed Big Red's Poké Ball from Liu Yongming. Liu Yongming didn't ask why, directly handed him Big Red's Poké Ball, and told him to come back early for dinner.

Zhou Yuan rode Big Red all the way to yesterday's lake, picking two Wepear Berries from a Fearow along the way. Fearow looked at Big Red beside Zhou Yuan, its small head filled with great confusion.

"Huh? If you had sent it out yesterday, you wouldn't have had to fight at all, right? This whole forest is yours."

Riding Big Red, he gradually approached the lake. About fifty meters from the lakeside, Zhou Yuan recalled Big Red to its Poké Ball, not daring to let it get too close to the lake for fear of scaring away the Magikarp.

Zhou Yuan slowly walked to the lakeside alone and gazed at the lake. He noticed another golden gleam on the surface, knowing it was the Magikarp. Zhou Yuan didn't make a sound to scare it away. Instead, he broke the Wepear Berry into pieces and started throwing them towards the Magikarp.

Just like yesterday, the Magikarp swam along, eating the berries. When it was about to enter the throwing range, it flicked its tail, splashing Zhou Yuan's face with lake water, and then swam back to the center of the lake.

Zhou Yuan wasn't disappointed. "As long as I don't have too high expectations, I won't be disappointed."

After breaking the second Wepear Berry and throwing it into the lake, seeing that the Magikarp had eaten it but still showed no intention of approaching, Zhou Yuan was temporarily out of options. He could only go back for now and come back every day to try and influence this Magikarp.

Looking around at the Pokémon drinking water, Zhou Yuan quietly followed a Dodrio in the late ordinary level. He initiated a challenge on its way back to its nest, happily gaining a hundred energy points.

That afternoon, Zhou Yuan once again swept through the forest, giving all the Pokémon he hadn't challenged yesterday a good beating. After accounting for the consumption of Super Potion, he earned a net profit of 150 energy points from the afternoon's battles.

Host's current energy points: 6810

Checking the time, he saw it was almost five o'clock. Zhou Yuan sent out Big Red and rushed back to the ranch, preparing to clean up, eat dinner, and start his live stream.

Time flies so fast.

At 6:55 PM, Zhou Yuan sat in front of his computer, adjusting the microphone and computer, and opened the virtual battle and A-station live streaming interfaces, ready to start broadcasting on time.

At exactly 7:00 PM, Zhou Yuan began his live stream.

"Hello everyone, I'm A Yuan. Today is my first live stream, and I'll be showing you two tactical sets."

The moment Zhou Yuan started his live stream, a large number of users flooded into the room. The popularity instantly broke through one hundred thousand, followed by a large number of bullet comments.

"Finally live, I've been waiting so long."

"Are you there? Why doesn't the streamer show his face?"

"Grandpa, the blogger you follow is finally live!"

...

Zhou Yuan looked at these bullet comments, feeling a bit overwhelmed. He really hadn't expected so many people to show up as soon as he went live.

"Thank you very much for your enthusiasm, everyone, haha. I've never streamed before, so if any streaming accidents happen today, just pretend you didn't see them, haha."

"Let's get straight to it. Didn't I bring you a Chansey-centric tactic in the last video? I hoped it would be helpful to medical personnel. Today, I'm bringing you a tactic that can offer some ideas to police comrades."

Saying that, Zhou Yuan added Arcanine to the team editor, along with Whimsicott.

"As you can see, what I'm bringing you here is an Arcanine-centric tactic."

"Today's chosen mode is a six-on-four doubles battle mode," Zhou Yuan introduced the battle while glancing at the bullet comments and gift messages.

"Thanks to 'A Yuan and Shinny Machamp Stick Together' for the airplane. Can this viewer please change their name slightly, just change A Yuan to Meng Boguang."

Meng Boguang, who was watching the live stream in Yun Dian City, was suddenly cued: "Huh???"

"Thanks to 'Fast Forward to Hydro Pump Three Misses' for the airplane. Impossible, absolutely impossible to miss three times."

"And for those asking why I don't turn on my camera, I'll only show my face when I hit two million followers."

Upon hearing this, the bullet comments almost went crazy.

"???"

"Two million? Streamer, is your last name Qiao?"

"Don't talk nonsense, you can't be named Qiao. This is worth twenty Qiaos, isn't it?"

"Surely no one doesn't know that A Yuan is an ultimate, invincible, explosive, super handsome guy, right? No way, no way, right?"

"Ahem, that's a bit exaggerated, brothers. Just remove 'explosive' and it's about right."

Zhou Yuan interjected, and for a moment, the screen was covered in question marks.

While Zhou Yuan was chatting with the bullet comments, he finally matched with an opponent.

The opponent was a player whose IP address showed as the Kanto region.

"Oh, oh, an international friend! I'm fighting an international friend!"

Meanwhile, in Kona's doll-filled room in Kanto, she found her opponent's ID somewhat familiar. After a moment of thought, she remembered seeing his video and found it quite interesting.

Both sides entered the battle. Zhou Yuan sent out Arcanine and Whimsicott first. Kona sent out Jynx and Slowbro first.

"As you can see, the opponent's Pokémon here are all slower than ours, so we don't need Whimsicott to use Tailwind for speed for now. We can directly have Whimsicott use Beat Up to attack our Arcanine."

In the game screen, Whimsicott, with its fastest speed, directly used Beat Up on Arcanine. After four attacks, Arcanine's spirit greatly increased.

Zhou Yuan spoke again:

"The Arcanine I chose has the Justified ability. The effect of Justified is that its Attack stat increases by one stage when hit by a Dark-type move, and the effect of Beat Up is that its number of attacks is determined by the number of Pokémon on its side."

"Since we currently have four Pokémon, it can attack Arcanine four times. Coupled with Arcanine's ability, Arcanine's Attack stat is raised four times."

"In essence, a Beat Up team uses Beat Up to trigger Justified, completing its power-up in a very short time, and then sweeping the opponent's team."

"The opponent's Pokémon are Slowbro and Jynx. Since the opponent's speed is slow, we need to be wary of them setting up Trick Room, which would reverse speed order."

"Both of the opponent's active Pokémon can learn Trick Room. Here, I believe the opponent will have the faster Jynx activate Trick Room to allow the slower Slowbro to move first, thereby attacking Arcanine."

"Since Jynx's physical defense is very low, we won't use Flare Blitz here to avoid excessive recoil damage. Arcanine, use Crunch!"

Just as Zhou Yuan expected, Jynx, under Kona's command, tried to set up Trick Room, but while it was still raising its hands to prepare to unleash energy, it was bitten by Arcanine's teeth, imbued with dark, evil energy, and immediately fainted. Although Slowbro also used Surf to attack Arcanine, Arcanine's condition still seemed relatively good.

"It's Assault Vest. I gave Arcanine an Assault Vest, which effectively boosted its special defense, allowing it to withstand more damage," Zhou Yuan explained to the bullet comments.

"Huh? Is he really going to sweep them?"

"The opponent shouldn't be able to, right? They're in the top thirty, can't they break through?"

"You try it, you who are in front. Fast and high attack, what are you going to use to stop it?"

"Am I the only one wondering if this tactic has been used before?"

"It seems no one has used it before. Is it the streamer's original creation?"

The bullet comments were buzzing, clearly surprised by Zhou Yuan's Beat Up tactic.

"The opponent's Slowbro used Surf and broke our Whimsicott's Focus Sash, but it doesn't matter. Its mission will be complete after it sets up another Tailwind."

After Jynx was knocked out, Kona sent out Lapras. Two Water-type Pokémon double-targeting your Arcanine, I don't believe you can withstand it.

After seeing the opponent's two Pokémon, Zhou Yuan thought for a moment and analyzed:

"The opponent sent out Lapras, which is slow. We still need to guard against the opponent using Trick Room, so we'll deal with Slowbro first. Also, Lapras's power is not as strong as Slowbro's, so we can still endure it."

"Considering that both of the opponent's Pokémon are slow, we won't use Tailwind for now. We'll take a gamble. Whimsicott, use Grass Whistle on Lapras! If this hits, the opponent has no chance of turning the tables!"

In the game screen, the Grass Whistle blown by Whimsicott, after floating erratically, hit Lapras.

"???"

"He's cheating, right? Reported."

"Grass Whistle can hit? Huh?"

"What is it? Is the streamer's ability Super Luck?"

The audience was stunned. Grass Whistle, this Skill, actually hit?

"Oh ho ho ho, it really has to be me, huh?" Zhou Yuan's tone was barely containing his smugness.

Far away in Kanto, Kona now had three question marks floating above her head. "Huh? Grass Whistle? Does anyone actually use this Skill? And it even hit him?"

Kona couldn't understand why her luck had become so bad.

Under these circumstances, Slowbro was instantly knocked out by a Wild Charge from Arcanine. Then, the Cloyster that Kona sent out also couldn't withstand a Flare Blitz, and Lapras was ultimately forcibly defeated in its sleep.

Kona: "...There's something dirty... I can't play anymore!"

While Zhou Yuan was chatting, the popularity of his live stream was already slowly increasing. When Zhou Yuan entered the battle, the live stream's popularity surged! The moment Zhou Yuan won, the live stream was flooded with "ohhhh" and the popularity directly broke through the one million mark.

The bullet comments were all marveling at how easily and smoothly this streamer, using his self-created tactic in the Great Ball rank segment, achieved victory in battle. Although there were factors of type advantage, wasn't the opponent also counter-typing him in return?

Regardless of other issues, after this battle, most of the audience acknowledged Zhou Yuan's tactics and command. If they had watched his videos before for fun or entertainment, now they were truly impressed by his plays.
