It has face paralysis!

While conversing with the staff, Terrance had already heard a detailed introduction about Pokéblocks and the machine that produces them.

However... Terrance still remained skeptical.

He couldn't believe that the food produced by a machine capable of mass production could have any good effect on Pokémon's growth.

Even more unbelievable was the idea that Pokéblocks could surpass the carefully crafted food tailored by Breeders for Pokémon.

Terrance leaned in to observe the "Pokéblock Machine", unconcerned about how he must have looked poking and prodding.

Even though the people around him gave him strange looks, he didn't give up on the chance to get a clear look at the machine.

"Quite interesting..."

From the outside, it wasn't apparent how it worked, but in terms of usability, the machine was quite easy to use.

"I heard this was developed by a Breeder team led by Mr. Lynn, who has earned the title of Senior Breeder for his expertise in making Pokémon food, in collaboration with the Pokémon Contest officials..."

"A Senior Breeder who got promoted using Pokémon food as his field?" Terrance mused to himself.

To get promoted to Senior Breeder through food... undoubtedly belonged to the more challenging category. Because making food was essentially a Breeder's basic skill, and in this field where everyone was proficient, innovating further was even more difficult.

"Yeah, Mr. Lynn is amazing. I heard this collaboration with the Pokémon Contest officials was to honor the Top Breeders—"

Top Breeder!

To earn such a title, one must make contributions to the Pokémon or Trainer community that were everlasting and groundbreaking.

Just like Master Victor, whose achievements in genetics are unmatched, it's said that the League's program for breeding Starter Pokémon has had the assistance of Master Victor... Many aspects of it reportedly incorporate research findings from Master Victor.

Wanting to achieve the title of "Top Breeder" through the "Pokéblock Machine"...

Receiving this information, Terrance scrutinized it even more carefully.

"Please step back a bit..."

The audience crowding around, eager to observe the working of the Pokéblock Machine up close, prompted the security guard nearby to start shooing them away. "Step back, stay outside the circle."

"Aw!"

The crowd reluctantly stepped back.

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!

Immediately after, to the amazement of the audience, the staff began operating the Pokéblock Machine.

"Is there anyone from the audience willing to cooperate?!"

To ensure authenticity and verify that the Pokéblocks produced by the machine were indeed edible and suitable for Pokémon, the staff member looked at the crowd.

"Me me me me!!"

In the next moment, Terrance was the first to raise his hand eagerly.

"Alright... let's go with him." The staff member smiled. "Everyone, please make some space. Also, release Pokémon which is preferably of smaller size."

Smaller size...

Terrance nodded, thinking of releasing Growlithe, but as his hand touched the Poké Ball, he immediately withdrew it, sweat breaking out.

What if... what if Growlithe suddenly got excited and damaged the machine?

Even though the chances were slim, Terrance's finger twitched, moving to Beautifly's Poké Ball instead.

"It's going to be this one." Terrance said.

"Alright... Beautifly it is."

The staff member checked... then took out a booklet and carefully flipped through it.

"For Beautifly... these berries should do." They murmured to themselves.

"Hmm..." Terrance watched curiously.

However, the next actions of the staff, along with the operation of the Pokéblock Machine, completely stunned Terrance.

The staff brought several Berries and directly poured them into the machine. With the sound of the machine operating, several small square blocks, the size of fingernails, were squeezed out.

"So, this is Pokéblock." Terrance scrutinized skeptically.

"Yes, Pokéblock. Let's have Beautifly try it." The staff smiled. After tests, this combination would definitely work.

Beautifly would instantly fall in love with Pokéblock.

However, amidst the anticipation of the crowd eager to see the effects of Pokéblock, after hearing so many rumors, now... they could finally see it with their own eyes.

Terrance held a small piece of Pokéblock and placed it near Beautifly's mouth.

And then, Beautifly swallowed it.

All eyes were on Beautifly, including the staff member's, but...

Unlike the previous experiment, Beautifly should have shown a joyful, satisfied expression, but none of that appeared on Beautifly's face.

The audience was bewildered.

The staff member was dumbfounded.

This was different from the initial tests.

Terrance was also taken aback. As Beautifly's Breeder, he knew Beautifly best...

For Beautifly, this Pokéblock, although not bad, was... almost ordinary, lacking any distinctiveness.

One could even say that it had grown tired of this level of food long ago!!

"Wow!!" Terrance spoke up at this moment.

"Beautifly... it really likes the Pokéblock." Terrance said.

"???" The staff member, the crowd.

"But I don't see any change in your Beautifly's expression..." A middle-aged man beside Terrance remarked.

"It's not the Pokéblock's fault, um, my Beautifly, it has face paralysis." Terrance explained.

"Haha... looks like it's a success then. Who else wants to try? Let's invite the next audience member." The staff member wiped his sweat, unsure of what went wrong.

Fortunately, after the next audience member released their Pokémon, everything went as planned, and the Pokémon that ate the Pokéblock immediately expressed satisfaction.

But... due to Terrance, the staff member felt it wasn't enough and continued to invite several more audience members. Only after these Pokémon all showed satisfied expressions did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

It seems that there was just a small mishap with Terrance.

After numerous tests by the audience, everyone finally believed in the effectiveness of Pokéblock, astonished and curious as they looked at the machine.

You see, even the Pokémon food they bought didn't satisfy their Pokémon as much as this Pokéblock did.

A Trainer swallowed nervously, eagerly asking, "Um, excuse me, are there smaller models of this machine? How much does it cost?"

The staff hesitated, "For now... we only have this model."

The Trainer immediately felt disappointed. Although making Pokéblock was convenient and his Pokémon liked it, this large machine... was several sizes too big for him to carry.

"And... currently, it's not available for sale." the staff member added.

With this, everyone interested in Pokéblock could only come to places with the Pokéblock Machine to make Pokéblock. However, Pokéblock was small and convenient, and reportedly had remarkable nutritional value and special effects, which caught the attention of most people.

Only... Terrance couldn't help but purse his lips inadvertently.
