From the strength division described by Raymond, Mark finally understood what Uncle Aaron meant by breaking the genetic limit, and also understood why Uncle Aaron always warned him not to aim too high.
Breaking genetic limits is the most important characteristic of master-level elves.
Breaking the genetic limit is extremely difficult, and nearly 95% of the senior Pokémons are stuck.
However, does it require an elf to reach the master level to break the genetic limit of the race?
The answer is obviously not so.
There are simply too many Pokémons in this world. Occasionally, one or two Pokémons with extraordinary talents will appear, inherently breaking the racial limits.
In addition, there are the overlord Pokémons in the wild.
Among the leaders of the elves living in the wild, there will occasionally be a powerful leader whose size and strength far exceed that of ordinary leaders.
These powerful leaders are called Overlord Pokémons, or Pokémon Overlords.
Because these overlord Pokémons have broken the racial limits, their size and strength are far beyond that of their ordinary peers.
As to why the Overlord Pokémons can break racial limits, it remains a mystery to this day.
People only know that the Overlords will guard their own tribe. They are wild and difficult to tame, and almost do not trust humans, let alone be tamed by humans. Even if a master trainer takes action, it is rare to tame an Overlord Pokémon.
However, although the Overlord Pokémons are powerful, few of them can reach the level of Master Pokémons.
Because these Overlord Pokémons broke through their genetic limits too early, too many mutations occurred during their growth process, making it difficult for them to achieve the energy circulation of senior Pokémons, so they are inherently much weaker than Master Pokémons.
And this is why Uncle Aaron told him not to aim too high and to proceed step by step.
His Caterpie has broken the genetic limit, and Uncle Aaron is worried that he will take a shortcut and rush straight down the path of breaking through the racial limits.
Perhaps it is possible to quickly improve Caterpie's strength in the early stages in a short period of time, but the consequence of doing so is that Caterpie will become like a wild Overlord Pokémons, and will eventually get stuck at the elite level, unable to achieve a senior-level energy cycle.
However, Uncle Aaron's warning was only aimed at those Pokémons who were gifted and had broken their genetic limits from birth.
The blood genes of these Pokémons are relatively stable, and as long as they do not deliberately move in the direction of breaking the limits of their race, there will be basically no impact.
But his Caterpie is not included in this list, because his Caterpie is essentially an overlord Pokémon.
If he had followed Uncle Aaron's advice and continued to cultivate it step by step, his Caterpie would most likely have been ruined.
Under the influence of the [Caterpie King], as its strength grows, Caterpie's bloodline genes will naturally break through like other overlord elves.
If we continue to cultivate it step by step, by the time Caterpies start to build an energy cycle, it will be too late.
Therefore, he needed to make some changes to his Caterpie breeding route.
Thinking of this, Mark asked Raymond: "What other information do you know about Overlord Pokémon? Since Overlord Pokémon are wild and difficult to tame, have any trainers released their Pokémon into the wild and made them Overlord Pokémon?"
Raymond shook his head. "I haven't heard of anything like this. I don't know much about Overlord Pokémons. You can use the Thunder Group's Pokémon encyclopedia to check. The Thunder Group once stole the database of the Pokémon Alliance and set up a server. Although the stolen information is incomplete, there are no authority restrictions."
"Oh, is there any permission restriction for the Pokémon encyclopedia?"
Mark said as he took out the yellow Pokémon illustrated book from his backpack.
Unlike Raymond's other black illustrated book, this yellow elf illustrated book requires a password to be entered after turning on the computer.
Since Raymond refused to tell Mark the password during this period, Mark never used it.
But Raymond was completely different at this time.
After learning the password from Raymond, Mark immediately used this illustration to search for the Overlord Pokémon, and lines of information were revealed.
The information about the Overlord Pokémons was almost identical to what Raymond had said.
After a quick look, Mark continued to search for the elite, senior, and master levels.
Unlike the ordinary black Pokémon illustrated book, the Thunder Group's yellow Pokémon illustrated book immediately shows detailed explanations of these levels after searching.
Obviously, as Raymond said, the Pokémon Alliance has set permissions for the content that can be searched in the atlas, and ordinary people cannot search for those advanced contents at all.
Mark continued searching and flipping through the book for a while, then asked, "The Titan Caterpie you mentioned before is not recorded in the atlas. Can you tell me more about it?"
"I don't really know much about Titan Caterpies. A lot of what I told you back then was fabricated by me. I never thought of buying reagents for you, but the reagents from the Original Laboratory do exist. It's said that if you inject ordinary Caterpies with it, there's a chance that they'll transform into Titan Caterpies, but the chances don't seem high."
"I see." Mark pinched his chin and said, "By the way, I just saw some information about the special ability resonance. You can enter the lightning resonance again..."
Before Mark could finish his question.
Hearing the key word "thunder and lightning resonance", Raymond's whole body trembled continuously and collapsed to the ground, entering a state similar to self-isolation. Although his eyes were open, he had lost all response.
Seeing this, Mark stopped asking questions and looked at Electrabuzz next to him.
Electrabuzz was in much better condition than Raymond, but he was also trembling and shaking his head because of the four words "thunder resonance".
Mark sighed again.
In fact, if Raymond's character was not so bad, with the psychological quality of this Electrabuzz, it is still possible for him to transform and become stronger.
Unfortunately, Raymond, as the owner, was a hindrance.
Although Raymond looks very strong, he is too strong and will break easily, and will collapse faster and more completely.
Without too much sighing, Marx searched for a while, looked at Caterpie not far away and said: "I just got some knowledge about cultivation from Raymond. It seems that you and Butterfree's cultivation should speed up a bit."
"hiss?"
Caterpie looked a little puzzled. It was in the period of laying the foundation. Shouldn't it be steady and cautious?
Mark touched Caterpie's head and said, "It's not that we don't want to lay the foundation. It's mainly because you and Butterfree are both dominant Pokémons, and you have already broken the genetic limit.
Although your daily training and practice like this may make your foundation more solid on the surface, it will actually further break through your genetic limits, causing your foundation to be unstable, making it difficult for you to comprehend energy circulation in the future and unable to break through to the senior level. "
Caterpie tilted its head. Although it didn't quite understand what Mark said, it felt the seriousness of the situation from Mark's tone, and its expression revealed some worry.
Mark patted Caterpie's head gently and said, "So, what you and Butterfree need to do next is to comprehend the secret of energy circulation as quickly as possible and become a senior level."
"hiss?"
Mark pinched his chin and said, "In fact, regarding the senior-level energy circulation, it gives me a sense of déjà vu of opening up the meridians throughout the body in the martial arts world.
Perhaps the return to nature that we are pursuing, in addition to the "holding" and "seeing through" skills of the strange force, is also related to this energy cycle..."
Caterpie looked at Mark and blinked, still not quite understanding.
Mark smiled and said, "Next time I add points, I plan to adjust the order of adding points.
In terms of contribution rate, you should add some points first, and then me.
However, your current accumulation is not enough, so it would be better for you to practice for a while longer.
I plan to increase my [Strong Physical Fitness] talent. If nothing unexpected happens, you should also practice with me in the dream world.
The addition of points to [Strong Body] can, on the one hand, solve the problem of me lagging behind in the battlefield, and on the other hand, complete our accumulation of returning to basics.
Then next time you add some, I will add some of your [Impact].
I have a feeling that if we can achieve a return to nature, you will also naturally comprehend the secret of energy circulation while achieving a return to nature. By that time, you will become a senior Caterpie..."
