A water-type trainer who specializes in dragon-type water.

Chapter 442 Extreme Sweetness

"Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Giant Mushroom recipe."

"Item Description: After a Pokémon drinks the Max Mushroom dish, it can evolve from a regular Dynamax Pokémon to a Gigantamax Pokémon."

Upon hearing this electronic announcement, Zhang Heng's pupils contracted slightly.

As a seasoned Pokémon trainer, he immediately thought of the settings in handheld games.

In the game, you can make Max Soup with three Max Mushrooms at Master Ma's Dojo.

But he immediately frowned, because Urshifu was an exception—this Fighting-type legendary Pokémon required the addition of Vespiquen's Max Sweetness to create a suitable Gigantamax potion.

"My combo-style Urshifu... could it be unable to directly Gigantamax?"

Zhang Heng subconsciously rubbed the Master Ball at his waist, his palms sweating slightly.

Moreover, in the entire history of Pokémon, Zhang Heng knew that there were very few legendary Pokémon that could achieve Gigantamax.

Besides Urshifu, which has both single-hit and combo forms, there is only the Steel-type Mythical Pokémon Melmetal, and these two legendary Pokémon can Gigantamax.

As the origin of the Dynamax phenomenon, the legendary Eternatus possesses a "Dynamax" form that surpasses Gigantamax, and it is said that the Dynamax energy surrounding its body is enough to distort the laws of space.

This discovery made Zhang Heng's breathing quicken, and he couldn't help but use his system ability to check the attribute panel of the Combo-Style Martial Arts Bear Master.

Pokémon Name: Urshifu (Combo Style)

Attributes: Fighting, Water

Level: 72 (quasi-champion level combat power)

Potential: Master

Titanium Crystal Attributes: Fighting

Characteristic: Invisible Fist

Carrying props: None

Learned skills: Water Jet, Water Combo, Brick Break, Drain Punch, Close Combat, Sword Dance...

Special Ability: Gigantamax (Unawakened)

After Zhang Heng looked at Martial Arts Master Xiong's attribute panel, his guess was confirmed.

"As expected, the current Combo Style - Urshifu can't use Gigantamax yet. I wonder what the situation is with Duan Guanjun's One-Hit Style, is it the same?"

If the problem with the potion formula cannot be solved, even as a Fighting-type legendary Pokémon, Urshifu currently only has near-champion level combat power.

Facing the legendary Kyurem, they had no chance of winning; only by relying on the power of Gigantamax could they barely put up a fight.

The Combo-Style Martial Arts Bear Master standing to the side suddenly twitched its ears. As a divine beast, it sensed that Zhang Heng seemed to be looking at something, but it didn't pay any attention to it.

Instead, it sensed deep worry from Zhang Heng and couldn't help but turn to look at him, letting out a low roar.

"It's alright, Martial Arts Master Xiong. We will take another step forward on the path to becoming stronger."

As soon as Zhang Heng finished speaking, the red and white Poké Ball in his hand trembled violently.

He threw it decisively, and a flash of white light appeared.

The fire-breathing dragon appeared majestically before us. This bipedal dragon was covered in smooth, hot orange skin, its creamy belly rising and falling with its breath, its short, powerful hind legs firmly planted on the ground, and its three sharp claws gleamed coldly.

Its enormous blue-green wings flapped gently, creating a scorching airflow, while the two horns behind its neck and the leaping flames at the end of its tail demonstrated its immense power.

"Charizard, become my partner, and let's use the power of Dynamax to reach the top of the world."

Zhang Heng started making empty promises again, his words laced with a hint of cunning, interspersed with the activation of his fire affinity.

The main approach is to use a combination of firmness and gentleness: first slap it, then give it a treat.

However, as the undisputed king of popularity in the Pokémon world, Charizard is sought after by countless trainers.

When choosing a starter Pokémon in the world of Pokémon, Charizard is the most popular choice for most trainers, regardless of its strength.

In the anime, Ash's Charizard and Leon's strongest Charizard are the heart of all Pokémon fans; in the games, they are also popular choices for battles throughout the generations.

As Nintendo's "golden child," Charizard always shines in every version, consistently occupying the top of the power levels, whether it's Mega Evolution or Gigantamax.

After Mega Evolution, it enjoys a superior position comparable to Mewtwo, and its two evolutionary forms make its tactical options on the battlefield more diverse.

Charizard turned to look at Zhang Heng, letting out a deep roar, as if responding to its master's fighting spirit.

"Whoo~"

Two streams of hot white breath were exhaled from its nostrils, and its tail flames suddenly rose up, turning the surroundings a bright red.

"Ding~" The system announcement sounded again.

"A Pokémon, Charizard, Fire/Flying type, has been detected captured by the host, which meets the requirements for the Fire-type team building mission."

"Rewards will be distributed after the statistics are tallied. The team is currently 33% complete. Please continue your efforts, host."

"Ding~ The rewards have been counted and are now being distributed."

"Congratulations, host, you have obtained Skill 141—Big Flame Burst. (Reusable)"

"Congratulations, host, your fire affinity has been amplified."

"Congratulations, host, you have obtained a one-time item treasure chest (selectable)."

In Zhang Heng's mind, the system's voice kept ringing, and finally stopped. He then checked the rewards he had received in his mind.

Zhang Heng asked the system, "System, a self-selected item chest? What can I get inside?"

"Ding ~"

"To the host, you can choose any item except for those that are not unique in this world and those that are exclusive to divine beasts."

Zhang Heng smirked. This self-selection item box was truly a win-win situation. To put it bluntly, any item that could be bought with money could be selected from it.

At most, it might just be choosing various Mega Evolution Stones or Z-Crystals.

He couldn't help but think about what tools he needed.

"Choose the Mega Charizard Y evolution stone? That way, it will have the Solar Beam ability, making it a weather setter."

Zhang Heng then shook his head, rejecting his own idea. Although weather setters could improve the strength of the team, setting up weather was no longer that difficult after Dynamaxing.

Furthermore, the synergy between Charizard and Charizard is not yet at a level sufficient for Mega Evolution.

"Right now, what the team needs most is to improve the Martial Arts Bear Master. Sigh, I feel like we've been set up by capital."

First, they gave me the recipe for Max Soup, and then they gave me a selectable item box, which seems to be to meet the conditions for the Combo-style Urshifu to Gigantamax.

"System, then exchange it for Max Sweetness for me."

Max Sweet is an extremely rare item; only honey produced by a Dynamaxed Queen Bee can be called Max Sweet.

In this world, even the generation of Dynamax Dens is accidental, let alone finding a Dynamax Queen Bee inside a Dynamax Den.

"Ding ~"

It seemed as if the system was prepared in advance, and its response was exceptionally rapid.

"Item - Max Sweetness has been issued and is temporarily stored in the system space."

At this moment, Evan, who was behind them, shouted at the two of them, "Hey, stop standing there! Come and help! Help me drag the steel hull out."

Looking back, Zhang Heng saw that it was at the moment the Dynamax Den was formed that he was dragged into this space, where the steel tanks containing the Poké Balls of the first generation of starter Pokémon were stored.

The steel pod was stuck upside down in an open space, its lower half severely deformed, next to the pod itself.

There are two broken Poké Balls, which should be the starter Poké Balls of Blastoise and Charizard. The breakage of the Poké Balls also means that they have become wild Pokémon, which is why they were caught by Zhang Heng and Amin.

"Martial Arts Master Xiong, help drag that steel pod out!"

As soon as Zhang Heng gave the order to Martial Arts Master Xiong, Martial Arts Master Xiong stepped forward.

Its amber-colored vertical pupils locked onto the steel hull that was stuck diagonally into the ground, its hairy giant paws gripping the deformed edge of the hull, and its muscle lines suddenly bulging beneath its mane.

With a deep roar, Martial Arts Master Xiong Shi used his arms to lift the steel cabin. Amidst the twisting and scraping of metal, half of the cabin was forcibly pulled from the ground, revealing the relief of the first generation of the three starter families carved on the bottom.

"Be careful! Don't shake anything inside!" Evan rushed over to steady the tilting steel cabin, his fingertips groping along the seam of the door for a moment before suddenly "clicking" as he unlocked the latch.

As the rusty hatch sprang open, a smell of engine oil and dust wafted out, revealing a lone Poké Ball stuck in a slot inside the hatch.

Zhang Heng used his system abilities to check and found it was a Venusaur's Poké Ball.

Amin scratched his head and came over, saying, "Um, we each caught one of the starter Pokémon, can we hand over the remaining Venusaur?!"

Zhang Heng: "Never mind all that nonsense."

Evan: "???"
