Pokémon have arrived, and they're really not called magical beasts.

[No, this can't be true. At the end of the day, they're just beasts!] 

[I can believe they have intelligence, but how can they understand human speech?] 

[Even dogs, humanity's most loyal companions, can only judge human intentions through tone. And now you're telling me these magical beasts can understand human words?] 

[I can't even understand foreign languages. Can it understand them?] 

"Well, I can't really say for sure." Su Feng scratched his head. 

He had to admit, the audience had some sharp points. This question really touched on a blind spot in his knowledge. 

"I know most people don't believe this, but in today's world, things can't always be judged by common sense." 

"Since I have a Rattata here, let's have it prove it to you." 

Su Feng took out another Oran Berry from his backpack and tempted the Rattata. 

"Rattata, I'm going to give you a few actions to perform. If you succeed, I'll give you this Oran Berry. Do you think you can do it?" 

Hearing this, the Rattata's eyes lit up, and it quickly nodded in agreement. 

Seeing the Rattata actually nod, the chat exploded with an astonishing number of messages. 

[I saw it clearly this time. It really nodded!] 

[No way, is the streamer using virtual technology to trick us!?] 

[To the person above, do you know how much such realistic virtual technology costs?] 

[Is it possible that the Rattata is just judging the streamer's intentions based on his tone, not actually understanding?] 

Seeing these comments, Su Feng didn't argue and decided to let the facts speak for themselves. 

"Rattata, jump three times in place." 

"Rattata!" 

Without hesitation, the Rattata hopped three times in place. 

Although the Rattata's movements looked a bit comical, it shocked a large portion of the audience. 

Su Feng nodded in satisfaction. "Next, do a backflip." 

"Rattata!" 

The Rattata performed a perfect backflip as instructed. 

"Finally, use your special move, Hyper Fang, on that small tree over there!" 

"Rattata!" 

The Rattata's teeth glowed faintly as it bit down on the small tree with a Hyper Fang. 

*Crack!* 

The tree, as thick as a bowl, was instantly bitten in half. 

"Wow." Su Feng exclaimed. 

He had to admit, the damage from this move was quite impressive. 

If that had bitten a person, it would definitely leave a scar. 

[I just pinched myself. I'm not dreaming.] 

[Is it possible that the streamer is an animal trainer who tamed an Iron-Eating Beast and is now putting on a show for us?] 

[Go ahead, try taming an Iron-Eating Beast—oh wait, a Rattata—and see how that goes.] 

[I can confirm that these creatures called Pokémon can indeed understand human speech.] 

[Holy crap, the person above is an official verified account specializing in magical beast research!] 

[Holy crap, now I have to believe it.] 

As the comments scrolled by, Su Feng noticed the account that had sent the message. 

Previously, it was just a few researchers, but now an official account was directly engaging with him, clearly showing their stance. 

Although he had expected to attract official attention, he didn't think it would happen on the first day. 

[Could you please tell us what you meant by the special move, Hyper Fang?] 

Immediately after, the account gifted nearly 20,000 yuan worth of virtual gifts. 

"Oh, you're too kind. The gifts aren't necessary. I just want to share knowledge." 

"Special moves refer to Pokémon's skills. Every Pokémon can learn many different powerful skills as they grow." 

"For example, Rattata's Hyper Fang is one of its dozens of skills." 

"Pokémon skills are incredibly diverse. Some are for battle, while others make life easier." 

"And also..." 

... 

"Old Chen, what do you think of what this streamer is saying?" 

In a brightly lit conference room somewhere, two dignified elderly men sat facing each other. Behind them stood two guards with impeccable posture, while several staff members operated computers, recording everything Su Feng said. 

"I think what he's saying is correct. After all, we only recently discovered that these creatures called Pokémon can understand human speech." 

"And given our level of secrecy, there's no chance of a leak." 

The man addressed as Old Chen analyzed the situation. 

The other old man nodded slightly at the answer and turned to a young man operating a computer. 

"Xiao Liu, have you still not found out the identity of this streamer?" 

Hearing this, Xiao Liu, sweating profusely, replied, "Sorry, Chief Xu, we haven't found it yet." 

Glancing nervously at the intimidatingly high military ranks on the shoulders of the guards behind the two elders, Xiao Liu felt like crying. 

He was just an operator in charge of the local official account. He had reported a streamer who seemed knowledgeable about magical beasts, but who could have expected it to attract two big shots? 

And this streamer was too mysterious. No matter what method they used, they couldn't find any personal information. It was as if he had fallen from the sky. 

Hearing that the streamer still hadn't been found, Chief Xu waved his hand. "Forget it. I doubt we'll find him even if we keep looking." 

"Understood!" 

With the current security systems, with full access, it shouldn't be difficult to track down a live streamer through signal tracking, facial recognition, or information queries. 

But this particular streamer couldn't be tracked through any means, and there was no information about him before this. It was quite puzzling. 

Combining this with the streamer's knowledge of Pokémon, Chief Xu had a slight suspicion but didn't voice it. 

"Keep a close eye on this streamer. Report any unusual activity to us immediately." 

"Understood!" 

... 

"So, that's roughly what skills are all about." 

After explaining skills for over ten minutes, Su Feng was feeling a bit parched. 

Turning his head, he saw the Rattata staring at him eagerly—or rather, at the Oran Berry in his hand. 

"Ah, sorry about that." 

Su Feng quickly handed the berry to the Rattata. 

After getting the berry it wanted, the Rattata wasn't upset at all. Instead, it happily rubbed against Su Feng's hand. 

[Oh no, I'm starting to find the Rattata kind of cute.] 

[Same here. It doesn't seem as vicious as the media makes it out to be.] 

[So fluffy, I want to touch it...] 

Seeing the public perception of Pokémon improving, Su Feng couldn't help but smile. 

"The purpose of my stream is to help people better understand Pokémon, not to treat them as monsters. They can be communicated with." 

"I hope that one day in the future, humans and Pokémon can build a peaceful and harmonious world together."
