After catching it, Roy immediately checked Jigglypuff's attributes.
[Pokémon: Jigglypuff]
[Type: Normal, Fairy]
[Level: Lv23 (Common Grade)]
[Potential: Quasi-Elite]
[Ability: Cute Charm — When hit by a contact move, there is a 30% chance to make the opponent infatuated]
[Hidden Ability: God of Song — Enhances the sound waves of the Sing move, effective against opponents up to 20 levels higher than itself]
[Moves: Sing, Disarming Voice, Echoed Voice, Round]
[Held Item: None]
[Special Enhancement: None]
Roy looked at this attribute panel.
His eyes lit up.
Quasi-Elite potential meant it could grow up to level 69.
This potential was already quite high.
But potential was not the point of this Jigglypuff.
The point was that Hidden Ability.
God of Song.
Enhancing the sound waves of the Sing move, effective against opponents up to 20 levels higher.
Roy stared at this line of text, reading it three times.
With each reading, the smile at the corner of his mouth deepened.
Since he set off, this was the other Pokémon he had seen with a Hidden Ability, besides Pikachu.
God of Song.
It was also a broken-level ability.
The Sing move originally carried a sleep effect.
But this effect was affected by the level difference.
If the opponent's level was too high, the effect would be greatly reduced, or even completely ineffective.
But with this God of Song ability, this problem no longer existed.
Ignoring a level gap of 20.
Now Jigglypuff was level 23, so it could affect Pokémon up to level 43.
In this wilderness, Pokémon above level 40 were already quite rare.
So, in this surrounding area, Jigglypuff basically made whoever it sang to fall asleep.
Not to mention the future.
Jigglypuff's potential was Quasi-Elite, which was level 69.
By then, it could affect opponents up to level 89.
What was the concept of level 89?
Peak Champion level!
That is to say, once Jigglypuff grew up, even a Champion-level opponent would not be able to withstand its singing.
And this was not the upper limit.
If he could obtain some items to improve potential later.
As long as he raised Jigglypuff's potential by another tier.
Raising it from Quasi-Elite to Elite Four Level.
Then Jigglypuff could grow up to level 79.
The upper limit of influence would become level 99.
Level 99.
Quasi-god level.
It could influence a quasi-god!
Roy took a deep breath, calming his mood.
A control move that could affect the quasi-god level.
What kind of concept was this?
This could no longer be described by the word broken.
This was simply cheating.
Although this Jigglypuff clearly didn't like fighting.
You could see it from its move list.
Sing, Disarming Voice, Echoed Voice, Round.
All sound-based moves.
This Jigglypuff was a pure singer.
It didn't like fighting and killing.
It just wanted to Sing quietly.
But.
Used for control, that was enough.
One Song, and the opponent would be asleep.
Then use other Pokémon to finish them off.
Just thinking about that scene was satisfying.
Roy put away the system panel and pressed the button on the poké ball.
A red light flashed.
Jigglypuff was released by him again.
"Poli?"
Jigglypuff tilted its head and looked at Roy after coming out.
It didn't know what this new Trainer wanted to do.
Roy took out some Pokémon food from his backpack.
It was prepared on the road earlier.
"Come on, eat something."
Roy placed the food in front of Jigglypuff.
Jigglypuff looked at the food, then at Roy.
Then it happily picked up the food and started eating in big mouthfuls.
After singing a whole song just now, it was indeed a bit hungry.
Watching Jigglypuff eat happily, Roy smiled.
Then he spoke.
"Jigglypuff, do you want to hold a concert?"
"Concert?"
Hearing these three words, Jigglypuff's little ears perked up instantly.
Those big, watery eyes lit up like light bulbs in an instant.
"Poli Poli!"
It looked up at Roy, its little mouth open in a circle.
Its eyes were full of little stars.
A concert.
It had dreamed of holding a concert.
Previously in the forest, it could only stand on a tree stump and Sing for those wild Pokémon.
But every time, those listeners would fall asleep.
They never listened to a whole song properly.
Now this new owner not only listened to its song but also wanted to hold a concert for it?
Jigglypuff was so excited that its little face turned red.
"Poli! Poli Poli!"
It jumped up on the spot.
Its Round body hopped up and down like a little pink ball.
Its two short arms waved in the air.
Too happy.
Too blissful.
This owner was simply the best owner in the world.
Jigglypuff hopped a few times and then threw itself at Roy's feet.
Its two short arms hugged Roy's calf, and its cheek rubbed against his pant leg.
It was incredibly affectionate.
Roy looked down at this little pink thing and couldn't help but laugh.
He reached out and rubbed its head.
"Alright, alright, don't get too excited yet, there is still serious business to attend to later."
Jigglypuff raised its head and nodded vigorously.
But it couldn't stop smiling.
When Misty and Delia woke up, it was already more than ten minutes later.
Misty opened her eyes and sat up in a daze.
She rubbed her eyes and yawned.
"I... why did I fall asleep?"
She shook her head and saw Roy sitting nearby, with Jigglypuff standing on his lap.
"Eh? Jigglypuff?"
Misty was stunned, then suddenly remembered.
"Right! Jigglypuff was singing just now! And then... and then I..."
She patted her forehead, looking annoyed.
"I fell asleep!"
Misty turned her head to look at Delia beside her.
Delia had also just woken up and was sitting up, using her hands to support the ground.
Her cheeks were still stained with a few blades of grass, and her eyes were still a bit dazed.
"Me too... I fell asleep as soon as I heard the singing."
Delia rubbed her temples and smiled embarrassedly.
"Jigglypuff's singing is really amazing."
After both women woke up, Jigglypuff's reaction was very interesting.
It was originally sitting on Roy's lap.
Seeing Misty and Delia wake up, its cheeks immediately puffed up.
Round, like an angry bun.
"Poli."
It huffed and turned its head away.
Misty looked at Jigglypuff's puffy appearance, a little confused.
"Eh? What's wrong with it? Wasn't it quite happy just now?"
She remembered that when Jigglypuff was eating the berry just now, it had triumphantly tilted its head at her.
Why was it angry now?
Misty stood up, walked to Roy's side, leaned over, and asked in a low voice.
"Jigglypuff was quite happy when it saw us earlier, why is it always looking so puffy at me and Sister Delia now?"
She lowered her voice, afraid of being heard by Jigglypuff.
Roy smiled and rubbed Jigglypuff's head.
Although Jigglypuff turned its head away, it didn't dodge his hand.
"Because it cares a lot about its own singing."
Roy looked at Misty and explained.
"What this Jigglypuff wants most is for someone to listen to it Sing seriously. But you have also experienced it, its singing is too hypnotic, and most people will fall asleep halfway through."
He pointed to Jigglypuff's puffy face.
"To it, if you fall asleep while it is singing, that is the greatest disrespect to it. So it still has a little temper now that it sees you two."
Misty said "Ah," and an embarrassed expression appeared on her face.
"I mean, there is nothing I can do about it."
She spread her hands, looking helpless.
"As soon as Jigglypuff opens its mouth, I, I really can't hold it."
She recalled the sleepiness just now; that was simply not something that could be resisted by willpower.
That feeling was like having one's whole brain soaked in warm water, so comfortable that one just wanted to close their eyes.
Misty felt that she had done great to last until the first half of the song.
Delia also nodded in agreement with Misty's words from the side.
"Yes, that kind of sleepiness is really impossible to resist."
She squatted down and put her hands together towards Jigglypuff.
"Jigglypuff, I am sorry, we didn't mean to fall asleep."
Jigglypuff glanced at Delia.
Its cheeks were still puffed, but not as much.
It huffed and turned its head away again.
That little look was just like a child throwing a tantrum.
Roy smiled and clapped his hands, attracting the attention of the two women.
"Alright, alright, this is a normal phenomenon."
His tone was very relaxed, with a comforting flavor.
"Jigglypuff is like this because it cares too much about its singing. After spending more time with it later, it won't be angry anymore."
Then he stood up and picked up Jigglypuff.
"Let's go, let's go do the serious business now."
The three and one Jigglypuff returned to Neon Town.
On the way back, Misty would steal glances at Jigglypuff from time to time.
Jigglypuff was lying on Roy's shoulder, its Round little belly pressing on Roy's shoulder.
That pink, tender little face was puffed up the whole way.
As long as Misty and Delia's eyes met with it, it would immediately turn its head away.
"Poli."
It would also make a huffing sound with a nasal tone.
Misty shrank her neck and whispered to Delia.
"This Jigglypuff has quite a temper."
Delia covered her mouth and smiled, whispering back to her.
"It just shows that it has an artist's pride."
When they returned to Neon Town, it was already getting dark.
Roy didn't take any detours and walked straight towards the central area of Neon Town.
He had to find Officer Jenny.
The streets of Neon Town were still the same.
The air was filled with an irritating heat.
Two vendors on the side of the road were arguing about the location of their stalls.
A middle-aged man selling ingredients and a middle-aged woman buying vegetables were arguing until their faces were red.
At the corner of the street, a Trainer wearing a hat was arguing with someone.
It seemed his Abra was accidentally knocked down by a passerby, and now the passerby was sticking his neck out and scolding his Abra for being blind.
The Trainer was so angry that his face was red, and his fists were clenched tightly.
The whole town was like a powder keg.
One spark and it would explode.
Roy walked through these restless crowds with a calm expression.
Misty and Delia followed behind, feeling a bit nervous because of this atmosphere.
Jigglypuff lay on Roy's shoulder, looking around curiously.
It hadn't seen such a lively human gathering place before.
But when those people were arguing, its ears would twitch.
That sound was too harsh.
It didn't like it much.
Roy soon found Officer Jenny at an intersection.
Officer Jenny was standing next to a patrol car, saying something to a man in a floral shirt.
Her face was very bad, and her brows were tightly knit.
The tone of her speech also carried obvious impatience.
"I have already said, personal stalls cannot be parked here, if you want to set up a stall, go to that street on the west side, understand?"
The man in the floral shirt stuck his neck out.
"What is wrong with me stopping for a while? I will leave after selling these things!"
Officer Jenny took a deep breath, and her chest heaved.
"You move away immediately now, otherwise I will treat it as a violation and give you a ticket."
Her voice already carried heat.
This was influenced by the irritable aura of this town.
If it were an Officer Jenny from elsewhere, when dealing with such things, although she would be serious, she wouldn't get emotional so easily.
Roy stepped forward and called out.
"Officer Jenny."
Jenny was being annoyed by that floral shirt, and when she heard someone calling her, the expression on her face didn't have time to recover when she turned around.
"What is it? Who is it again?"
Her tone was very sharp.
But.
When she saw clearly that the person coming was Roy.
That inexplicable heat surprisingly pressed itself down.
Jenny was stunned.
She didn't know why, but when she saw this Trainer, the irritability in her heart faded a little.
It was like a cool breeze blowing through her heart, making her calm down a bit.
This was the gold content of the 70-point Officer Jenny Family general favorability value.
It was not intentional, but a passive affinity.
In this Neon Town full of irritability, this affinity was like the only warmth in a basin of cold water.
Jenny walked two steps and came to Roy.
Her tone was obviously much softer than just now.
"Is there anything?"
Roy got straight to the point.
"Officer Jenny, I have a way to make everyone in the town calm down a bit."
Jenny was stunned again.
Make everyone in the town calm down a bit?
If someone else said this, she might have dismissed it as crazy talk.
After all, the problem in Neon Town was not a matter of one or two days, and experts sent from above had seen it, but they didn't see anything.
But coming from Roy's mouth, she subconsciously felt it was credible.
However, professional habits still made her maintain the basic procedure.
"You say you have a way?"
Jenny looked Roy up and down.
"Show me your Trainer identification."
Roy took out his Trainer card from his pocket and handed it over.
Jenny took it and swiped it on a handheld device.
The device screen popped up with Roy's basic information.
Name, age, Trainer number, and mission record.
Jenny looked at those few mission records.
Completed missing person investigation.
Assisted in solving the wild Pokémon riot incident.
These records showed that Roy was not someone of unknown origin, but a serious Trainer who had made contributions.
She raised her head again and looked at the pink Jigglypuff on Roy's shoulder.
Then she looked into Roy's eyes.
His eyes were very calm and very determined.
Jenny returned the Trainer card to Roy.
"Okay, I believe you."
She temporarily put the matter of the floral shirt aside and asked seriously.
"What do you plan to do?"
Roy patted the Jigglypuff on his shoulder.
"Hold a town-wide broadcast concert."
Jenny blinked her eyes.
A concert?
She lowered her head and looked at the Round, pink little thing.
Jigglypuff also raised its head and looked at her with big, watery eyes.
"Poli."
Jenny was silent for a few seconds.
Then she took a deep breath.
"Okay, you wait, I will go report it."
Jenny's efficiency was very high.
She first reported the situation to the higher-ups with a walkie-talkie.
When reporting, her wording was very concise.
"Someone provided a solution, the plan is operable, it is recommended to pilot it immediately."
The higher-ups asked a few details, and Jenny answered them one by one.
About ten minutes later, the approval came down.
Jenny put down the walkie-talkie and turned to Roy.
"The higher-ups agreed, I will coordinate with the various departments here. You take Jigglypuff to prepare first, I will arrange for people to set up the broadcasting equipment at the activity square on the east side."
Then she added a sentence.
"By the way, I will notify the remaining personnel in key positions to wear soundproof earmuffs. After all, it is a town-wide broadcast, if everyone falls asleep, there might be some problems with security."
Roy nodded.
Officer Jenny considered it very thoroughly.
"Alright, let's set the time for after nightfall."
Jenny said.
"Most of the townspeople will have gone home by then, the broadcast coverage effect will be the best, and after nightfall, everyone is more likely to fall asleep."
The matter was settled like this.
Roy took Jigglypuff, Misty, and Delia and walked towards the activity square.
