Chapter 1094: Chapter 896: The Tournament Begins, The Shock Brought by the Special Poké Ball!_2
This Caterpie-like Pokémon can be considered one of the lowest members of the food chain, with its soft and squishy body lacking strength. In nature, their fate is to be constantly preyed upon as a target for hunters.
Everyone was watching Caterpie intently, unsure of what Fang Yuan meant by his actions.
Fang Yuan said, "Next, I'd like to show everyone an experiment."
After saying that, Fang Yuan picked up a few leaves and said to everyone, "This is a leaf from the Peach fruit tree, a tree fruit that can heal poison conditions. However, its leaves are poisonous plants. Everyone should be aware of this, right?"
"Even the leaf-eating Caterpies will never consume the leaves of the Peach fruit, because doing so often means they would lose the ability to move. Without the ability to detoxify, they would end up dying at some unknown location. Even bird Pokémon would not eat their remains."
Everyone on site and viewers from all over the world could understand and acknowledge the knowledge Fang Yuan shared as it was covered in high school textbooks and known to any New Trainer.
At this point, under the incredulous gazes of everyone, Fang Yuan invited two Caterpies to eat the leaves of the Peach fruit.
"Cater..." "Cater..."
Right after eating the leaves, both Caterpies started exhibiting changes in their expressions and their green bodies gradually showed hints of purple.
A classic early sign of poisoning!!
Upon seeing this, the audience exclaimed in shock.
But it didn't end there; the two Caterpies also began to battle each other as they were about to succumb to the poison condition.
The two Caterpies wore expressions of steadfast resolve as they tackled each other head-on.
Thud!! Thud!!
Although it was just the simple Tackle move, due to the extremely fragile bodies of the Caterpies, just two rounds of combat was enough for the shock of the collisions and the friction with the ground to tear their skin.
The close-up on the big screen allowed both judges and viewers to clearly see that the condition of both Caterpies was very bad.
With poisoning and injuries, the eyes of the two Caterpies were already becoming desolate; if this continued, it wouldn't be long before both would surely die!!
"What exactly is Doctor Fang Yuan doing!"
"Although it's best to weaken a Pokémon before capturing it, isn't this a bit too cruel..."
The confused onlookers began to worry for the Caterpies.
However, at this point, Fang Yuan nonchalantly threw out two Cure balls and captured the two Caterpies inside.
Then, Fang Yuan spoke to the noisy audience and the thoughtful judges, "Now, I can introduce the special effect of this Poké Ball."
"I call it the Cure ball!"
"As the name suggests, the effect of the Cure ball is to heal the injuries and abnormal status conditions of the Pokémon that is captured inside."
"Be it minor injuries, serious wounds, poisoning, paralysis, burns... all can be healed with just a simple Poké Ball!"
"If a regular Poké Ball is likened to an ordinary bedroom, then the Cure ball can be considered a high-end hospital room with automated healing facilities!"
"That's its special effect."
"Next, please witness the miracle."
As Fang Yuan finished speaking, the audience was no longer noisy.
Instead, it was the turn of the calm judges to reveal expressions of shock.
"How is that possible."
"A Poké Ball can do that too?"
"Cure ball... can it really heal even abnormal states??"
Fang Yuan's words directly shocked the judges, and now everyone finally understood why Fang Yuan had conducted the experiment.
To let everyone witness a miracle!
Just over a dozen seconds after capturing the Caterpies with the Cure balls, Fang Yuan released them again.
At this moment, where were the injuries and poisoning on the two Caterpies?
Their condition was as good as when they first arrived!
"Cater! Cater!" Both Caterpies, full of energy, started doing loops and spitting silk towards the sky in celebration of their recovery.
If it weren't for the fact that Fang Yuan performed the experiment under the supervision of everyone, people would have every reason to believe that Fang Yuan switched the Caterpies and the Poké Balls like a magician.
In reality, it was proven that the two Caterpies had indeed recovered; the Cure balls were as magical as Fang Yuan described!
"Thank you," Fang Yuan said to the two Caterpies, who also laughed in response; no thanks needed, just remember the promised Energy Blocks, and that's OK.
"Hmm."
Fang Yuan did not linger his gaze on the two Caterpies for long but looked all around him and said, "The significance of the Cure ball lies in its potential in certain special locations, like secret realms, where it could save a Trainer's life. When a Trainer exploring a secret location runs out of medicine, is temporarily unable to leave the environment, and faces injury or poisoning of their Pokémon—if all their Pokémon were captured with Cure balls, then the significance of the Cure ball to a Trainer is self-evident, isn't it."
"Everyone can think about the other uses of the Cure ball..."
"Whether it's for exploration, combat, or training, it can ensure the safety of Pokémon to the greatest extent."
"Doctor Fang Yuan, will you be selling these Cure balls eventually!!!" Because of the impressive effect of the Cure ball, a Professional Trainer who was close to the platform suddenly shouted.
His Pokémon had died in exactly the kind of situation Fang Yuan described. If he had a Cure ball in the secret realm at that time, the situation would have definitely been different!!
