[Entries: I am the Chosen One, and the First! (Gold) All Things Growth (Gold) Lonely Traveler (Red)]
I am the Chosen One, and the First (Gold): As the number one Pokémon, I have the pride of not evolving, yet I possess the immense power that befits the first Pokémon.
Before evolving, all skills and moves are increased by 100%, training efficiency is increased by 100%, and the maximum stats are increased by 200%.
If evolution occurs, this effect is lost.
[Growth of All Things (Gold): A prerequisite for the Grass-type's ultimate talent, it increases the growth rate of plants and trees by 300%, raises the user's power by 30%, and boosts all Grass-type skills by 30%.]
[Lonely Traveler (Red): When fighting alone and HP falls below 30%, immune to all negative conditions and overall strength increases by 30%.]
Three entries—two gold and one red!
Wow, isn't this entry combination too luxurious?
Although it's not a full five-entry set,
Good quality entries are far more valuable than having all five slots filled!
Bulbasaur's talent and rarity in entries even surpass Froakie and Pikachu!
What kind of absurd entry name is "I am the Chosen One and the First"?
It was the first time Ash had ever seen such a long entry name!
The effects were even more abnormal. Though it came with the condition of not evolving,
The sheer boost completely made up for that drawback.
Without evolving, all skills and moves are enhanced by 100%, training effectiveness doubled, and total stats tripled!
If you think about it, what's the difference between an unevolved and evolved Bulbasaur now?
Not evolving might actually make it stronger!
After evolution, Venusaur's attack, defense, and stamina would normally increase,
But its flexibility would never match Bulbasaur's.
Don't be fooled by Venusaur's high species value in the games.
Games are games, and reality is reality. They can't be compared.
Furthermore, with Bulbasaur's stats multiplied by 200%,
Its total power could easily rival or even surpass Venusaur's!
It would simply take time and hard work to achieve that level.
And the remaining two entries were just as terrifying!
For anyone who loves growing plants, Growth of All Things is basically a divine-grade ability!
Forget the colorless entries of ordinary Pokémon—this one outshines them all!
Besides, this entry is the foundation for unlocking the ultimate Grass-type ability.
Ash didn't yet know what that ultimate form was, but it sounded overwhelmingly powerful.
As for the last entry, Lonely Traveler, it turned Bulbasaur into a fighter that thrives in dire situations.
Once his HP drops below 30%, all negative statuses like sleep, paralysis, or confusion are nullified,
And his total strength rises by another 30%!
It's the perfect comeback-type entry!
Ash immediately decided—he had to capture this Bulbasaur!
At this moment, Bulbasaur was staring at the three humans standing before him.
He didn't panic or run. His eyes narrowed cautiously.
He watched them with alert intensity, ready to defend himself at any moment.
If these humans made any sudden moves, he would definitely counterattack!
Serena stepped closer to Ash and whispered, "What's going on, Ash? Did this Bulbasaur attack Oddish?"
Ash looked down at Oddish, who was trembling beside Serena's legs, and shook his head.
"I don't think so. Oddish isn't hurt—it just looks scared."
"Bulbasaur, what did you want from Oddish?"
"Dana, Dana!"
Bulbasaur called out, his eyes shifting toward the bowl of Pokémon food near Ash's feet.
Ash, with his Viridian power and aura sensitivity, instantly understood what Bulbasaur meant.
He wasn't trying to fight—he wanted to share Oddish's meal!
But rather than stealing it, he was politely asking if he could have a taste.
He even planned to offer some fruit in exchange.
That realization genuinely surprised Ash.
It seemed like every Pokémon he'd met lately came because of his cooking!
Caterpie had been drawn in by food.
Pidgeotto followed because of Caterpie!
And now, even Bulbasaur appeared for the same reason!
Not only that—each of these Pokémon had amazing potential!
Could it be that the food he cooked naturally attracted high-quality Pokémon?
"If you want to eat, I'll make some for you. But you'll have to wait a bit."
"Dana?"
"Did I make these myself? Of course I did. Honestly, you could count on one hand how many chefs in the world can cook better than me."
When it came to cooking, Ash was completely confident.
That was an understatement—no one could match his skills!
His meals weren't just delicious—they had additional strengthening effects thanks to his entry abilities.
Who else in the world could manage that?
"Ash's cooking is the best!"
"That's right!"
Serena and Misty, standing beside him, immediately agreed.
They both knew exactly why Bulbasaur had come over.
He was clearly drawn in by the smell of the food!
It made perfect sense.
After all, who could resist the aroma of Ash's cooking?
Even though the two girls ate his meals every day,
Each time still felt like a heavenly experience.
They no longer blushed like before, but every meal filled them with bliss.
The flavors soothed their minds and bodies, leaving them completely relaxed.
The happiest part of their day was always mealtime.
Sometimes they even joked that they couldn't imagine life without Ash's cooking anymore.
