Chapter 61: Breaking the Cocoon and Emerging as a Butterfly
Seeing Scatterbug condition, Yuga felt somewhat helpless and quickly summoned the system.
"Do you think the genetic elixir can cure Scatterbug condition? Since it worked for those Pokémon eggs, it should work for Scatterbug too, right?"
The system replied, [ Of course, the genetic elixir can, but not the small genetic elixir. ]
"What do you mean?"
The system initial response gave Yuga a glimmer of hope, but the subsequent sentence dashed his expectations.
[ You named the elixir you used on those Pokémon eggs the \'Small Genetic Restoration Elixir.\' It\'s a weakened version of the genetic restoration elixir and works on unborn Pokémon eggs. However, it\'s ineffective on Scatterbuge that have already hatched. ]
Upon hearing this, Yuga anxiously asked, "What should I do then? I don\'t know how to prepare a genetic restoration elixir. Do you have the formula for it?"
[ I cannot provide anything beyond my host authority. However, you might find a solution in the system backpack ] the system responded.
Yuga pondered, "System backpack?" With that thought, he accessed the system backpack and revealed a pleasantly surprised expression upon seeing its contents.
Yuga seldom used the system backpack and hadn\'t actively stored items inside, causing him to forget what it held.
Apart from the seven specially crafted Poké Balls, a premium light stone, and four rare candy awarded by the system, there were also five test tubes!
These tubes contained the large genetic restoration elixirs awarded by the system earlier. Yuga had been keeping them all this time, never using them and eventually forgetting about them.
Taking out one test tube, Yuga exclaimed in excitement, "Can this large genetic restoration elixir cure Scatterbug?"
[ Absolutely, the large genetic restoration elixir is a reinforced version of the genetic restoration elixir. Just one dose is sufficient to fully rectify the inherent deficiencies of Scatterbug ] the system confirmed.
Hearing this, Yuga was almost jumping with joy. This meant that he was about to have a Indigo-aptitude Pokémon.
As he pondered, Yuga gaze at Scatterbug became almost "dangerous," his eyes practically glowing.
The rarity of Indigo-aptitude Pokémons was evident from Mr. Moore blue-aptitude main Pokémons.
As one of the Elite Four Trainers of Hoenn region, his main Pokémons, Typhlosion and Charizard, were both blue-aptitude.
Not a single blue-aptitude Pokémon had been spotted in places dedicated to Pokémon daycare.
Even the data provided by the Pokémon League about the Elite Four Trainers in Hoenn region indicated that their main Pokémons\' aptitudes were predominantly blue.
This highlighted the current status of Pokémon aptitudes in Hoenn: low-tier trainers had predominantly red, orange, and yellow aptitudes, mid to high-tier trainers had green aptitudes, and only the elite top-tier trainers had predominantly blue aptitudes, with barely any exceptions.
Apart from himself, Yuga had only seen blue
e-aptitude Pokémons in Robert and Mr. Moore possession (including Flannery Cyndaquil).
The rarity of Indigo-aptitude Pokémons was so extreme that he hadn\'t even heard rumors about them.
This emphasized just how scarce Indigo-aptitude Pokémons were.
Though Scatterbug was disadvantaged in terms of its species, a Indigo aptitude was a Indigo aptitude—one in a million!
Had Scatterbug not faced this issue, Yuga would have never had a chance to encounter it.
Concluding the conversation with the system, Yuga sneakily addressed Scatterbug, saying, "Scatterbug, if I can help you evolve and become strong, will you become my Pokémon?"
Upon hearing Yuga words, the head-lowered Scatterbug suddenly lifted its head and vigorously nodded in agreement.
Yuga heart leapt with joy: it worked! However, he maintained a feigned calm and said, "But before that, you need to eat something. You\'ve been hungry for so long, and it\'s not good for you not to eat."
Scatterbug eyed Yuga skeptically. Yuga quickly understood its expression and had no choice but to explain, "I didn\'t say that just to trick you into eating. I really have a way to cure you!"
Finally, with Yuga repeated assurances, Scatterbug finished drinking the Moomoo milk in front of it.
Speaking of which, these Moomoo milk were actually the ones Yuga had bought for the Swablu earlier. However, he had bought too many and hadn\'t finished them by now, which made them perfect for supplying the energy Scatterbug urgently needed.
After finishing the milk, Scatterbug stared at Yuga with eager little eyes. Yuga, amused, pulled out the cork from the large genetic restoration elixir and handed it to Scatterbug, saying, "Here, drink this. It will solve all your problems!"
Hearing Yuga words, Scatterbug impatiently held the test tube and swiftly gulped down all the liquid.
Suddenly, Yuga thought that in novels, main characters always experienced painful processes like marrow-washing and bone-refining. He quickly summoned the system and asked, "Will using this genetic restoration elixir be painful?"
[ Not at all, the elixir is very gentle. You\'ll see for yourself ] the system reassured.
True to the system words, Scatterbug didn\'t show any signs of pain after drinking the elixir. Instead, it gradually drooped its eyelids and fell asleep.
Seeing Scatterbug drift into sleep, Yuga hurriedly asked, "System, Scatterbug has fallen unconscious. Is this okay?"
[ No problem, this is a normal phenomenon. The elixir is taking effect! ] the system responded.
About half an hour later, the slumbering Scatterbug emitted a dazzling white light. Yuga recognized it as the evolution light, as this was how Flabébé evolved into Floette.
Within the white light, Scatterbug body gradually stretched, and when the light dissipated, a completely new Pokémon appeared before Yuga.

Scatterbug had evolved into a Spewpa, its level increased by one, and its skills had undergone some minor changes. All in all, the changes were not significant, but they indicated that Scatterbug issues had truly been resolved.
The Spewpa had by now awakened, its eyes shifting left and right over its own body in sheer delight. It was overjoyed to realize that it had truly evolved.
In order to help the Spewpa grasp its changes more tangibly and boost its self-confidence, Yuga decided to take out all the rare candy from the system backpack.
"Here, Spewpa, have one of these."
Saying this, Yuga handed a magical candy to the Spewpa, signaling it to consume it.
At this point, the Spewpa had built quite a bit of trust in Yuga. Without a second thought, it consumed the magical candy.
After ingesting the candy, a white light once again enveloped the Spewpa body.
Within the light, a pair of slender wings sprouted from the now plump body of the Spewpa, and its body became increasingly delicate.
As the white light dissipated, a butterfly-shaped Pokémon soared from the table. Its agile wings fluttered continuously, making it appear like a beautiful Pokémon dancing above Yuga head.
