CHAPTER 95
095 The Only Exclusive Item! The Queen's Crown
"The last ten seconds!"
With only ten seconds remaining on the Lucky Halo's effect, Qin Yun didn't hesitate. He immediately refreshed the system store.
[System: Refresh successful.]
Qin Yun exhaled in relief. He had just made it in time.
"I wonder if I'll get something valuable this time."
His eyes scanned the store, but at first glance, there wasn't anything particularly game-changing. A flicker of disappointment passed through his gaze.
"Well, that's to be expected. It's only a small lucky halo. Getting a rare Pokémon like Larvitar earlier probably used up most of my luck."
Still, just because there weren't any legendary items didn't mean there weren't useful ones. Qin Yun focused on the list.

[Item List]
1. Prop Storage Box
Cost: 100 Points
Effect: Allows a held item to be removed without decreasing its durability.
> "This is practical."
In the real world, trainers used a similar item, but the issue was that removing a held item three to five times would render it useless. A proper Prop Storage Box would cost a hefty 5 million Pokémon dollars, making it unattainable for most.
Additionally, the durability reduction made it so most trainers could only swap out held items a few times before they disappeared entirely.
> "This version doesn't have those drawbacks. Definitely worth considering."
However, Qin Yun decided to check the rest of the items before making a final decision.

2. Flash Fruit
Cost: 2000 Points
Effect: 50% chance to turn a Pokémon into a Shiny Pokémon.
Qin Yun's eyes widened in surprise.
> "A way to turn Pokémon into Shinies?"
In all his research and experience, there had never been an item capable of doing this. Naturally occurring Shiny Pokémon were extremely rare, with an estimated probability of 1 in 4096 in the wild.
Shiny Pokémon were also known to have higher base potential, typically starting at Intermediate Tier or higher. If the transformation worked as expected, it could be a game-changer.
Without hesitation, Qin Yun exchanged for it.
> [Exchange successful.]

3. Eye of Data
Cost: 1000 Points
Effect: Allows the user to view Pokémon stats, similar to the Pokémon Analyzer device used in official trainer evaluations.
> "A portable data analyzer? That's a great tool."
Previously, Qin Yun had used specialized Pokémon Centers or official equipment to evaluate Pokémon stats. Having a personal system to check stats would give him a significant advantage in battle preparation and training efficiency.
---
4. The Queen's Crown
Cost: 2500 Points
Effect: Exclusive to Gardevoir. Increases all base stats by 12% and gives a chance to lower an opponent's Special Defense when attacking.
Note: This item is unique and can be upgraded using rare items like Moon Essence, Sacred Laurel Leaves, and Super Essence.
Qin Yun's pulse quickened as he read the description.
"An exclusive evolution-based item!"
Unlike standard held items such as Choice Specs or Life Orb, this was an exclusive item designed specifically for Gardevoir. Boosting all stats by 12% was an enormous advantage, especially for a Pokémon that relied heavily on Special Attack and Speed.
"And it has an upgrade path? That means it can become even stronger over time!"
This kind of unique item had never been seen before, not even in competitive tournaments. Qin Yun knew he had to get it.
> [Exchange successful.]

Aftermath of the Purchases
Qin Yun took a deep breath.
"That was 6,500 points in one go… I'm broke again."
After the transactions, he was left with only a few premium energy cubes and 5 million Pokémon coins. While it wasn't a terrible situation, he still needed more funds to maintain his rapid progress.
> "I need to find a tournament with a decent cash prize. If I don't, I'll be broke before I even get to the next gym."

Checking Pokémon Stats
Before looking for a tournament, Qin Yun tested his Eye of Data on his Pokémon. Immediately, their stats were displayed in full detail.
Heracross (Elite Rank - Mid-Level)
HP: 3,891
Attack: 3,910
Defense: 3,410
Special Attack: 1,315
Special Defense: 3,511
Speed: 3,782
Total Combat Power: 19,819
"Heracross has incredible physical stats, but Special Attack is basically useless."
This confirmed what he already knew—Heracross was a physical powerhouse but had no use for Special Attack.
---
Larvitar (Beginner Rank - Low-Level)
HP: 275
Attack: 352
Defense: 275
Special Attack: 248
Special Defense: 275
Speed: 226
Total Combat Power: 1,651
Considering Larvitar was freshly hatched, these were exceptionally high stats. With training, its power could rival Elite Pokémon before even evolving into Pupitar.
"Once Larvitar reaches Peak Entry Rank, it might be able to compete with even my Heracross."
This further reinforced why pseudo-legendaries were considered late-game powerhouses.
---
Preparing to Equip the Queen's Crown
Qin Yun glanced at his Kirlia, who was still resting.
"I'll wait until tomorrow to equip the Queen's Crown. No need to rush."
The item could be equipped anytime, and he wanted to ensure Kirlia was well-rested before testing its effects.
He also noted the materials required to upgrade the Queen's Crown.
"Moon Essence, Sacred Laurel Leaves, and Super Essence… I'll need to research where to find these."
---
Finding a Tournament
As Larvitar fell asleep, Qin Yun stretched.
"Well, no use worrying about things I can't change. Time to find a tournament with a good cash prize."
Opening the Trainer League Network, he searched for upcoming competitions.
Most of the lower-tier tournaments had entry restrictions, and some only rewarded 20,000–30,000 Pokémon dollars, which wasn't worth the effort.
"If I can find a tournament with at least a 200,000-dollar prize, that would be perfect. With my system's multiplier, I could turn that into 200 million worth of resources."
After scrolling through various listings, Qin Yun's eyes suddenly widened in shock.
"Wait… how many zeros was that?!"
He quickly clicked back to check the details.
