My Class Laughed At My Dying Pokemon Egg, Not Knowing It Held A 2-Meter Champion Larvesta

Recap

Jiang Yu wakes up in the Pokémon world to find a Gengar looming inches from his face—and quickly discovers he has been reborn as a teenager with a strange system that can read Pokémon’s aptitude, moves, and condition. The system is useful, but stingy: its first reward is a discount coupon, and its shop initially offers little more than a Poké Ball.

His mother, Xia Shuhua, is a renowned Pokémon evolution researcher. At breakfast, Jiang Yu learns that students are about to choose their starter Pokémon. He also spots three Gengarite mega stones in his mother’s lab notes. Since nobody in this world seems to understand mega evolution, he pretends he has developed a sudden passion for rocks.

At the breeding center, Jiang Yu scans the available starters but finds nothing that feels right. Then, in the bug room, he spots a dying Larvesta egg tucked away in a corner. The system identifies it as female, with unstable Champion aptitude, an extraordinary set of moves, and almost no chance of surviving. When he hears the frightened Pokémon silently pleading for help, Jiang Yu chooses the egg anyway. His classmates laugh at him for picking a doomed bug instead of a proper starter.

With his mother’s help, he takes the egg to a research institute. Scientists discover that it contains two immense energies and is running out of the life force keeping it alive. They can’t save it—until the egg hatches on its own. The newborn Larvesta immediately speaks to them telepathically, drinks a bottle of milk, and turns out to be nearly two meters tall. But hatching hasn’t solved her underlying problem; her body is still failing.

Jiang Yu’s system finally unlocks, and he receives basic Viridian power, which lets him communicate with and heal Pokémon. It doesn’t immediately work miracles—Larvesta simply rolls over and falls asleep—but it gives him a way to help her. Then, during a visit to a battle park, Ho-Oh appears over the capital and drops a golden feather onto Larvesta. The feather triggers a transformation: she forms a cocoon, emerges healthy, and her aptitude rises to approaching Master.

The oversized Larvesta is already a handful. In her first park battle, she insults every Pokémon there, then wins a match against a Pidgey by using String Shot as improvised armor and Quiver Dance to boost herself. Jiang Yu’s commands earn plenty of skeptical looks—especially when he tells her to wrap herself in silk—but the Pidgey’s sand attacks end up hitting the silk rather than her eyes. Her fiery attacks are so powerful that onlookers keep mistaking Ember for Flamethrower.

Jiang Yu trains her carefully, building control rather than simply telling her to fire everything at once. He even recruits a Growlithe and Vulpix from the research institute to dodge Larvesta’s practice Embers in exchange for energy cubes. They become enthusiastic training partners, though Growlithe once spits at Jiang Yu, prompting him to congratulate it on apparently learning a Water-type move.

Larvesta starts winning ranked matches, including one against a much higher-level Wartortle. Her size, power, and unusual tactics make her a rumor in the beginner division. Jiang Yu earns system coins from a ten-win streak and buys permanent skill books, then discovers his system-made energy cubes are better than even the finest researcher-grade food. As he puts it, the system may be stingy with rewards, but it has its uses.

During a wilderness school event, Jiang Yu and Larvesta encounter a Leavanny who once cared for Larvesta’s egg. Following the trail leads them through a rift into the ruined city of Azoth, a place overrun by Ghost Pokémon. Leavanny and Jiang Yu sneak through the castle by covering doorways with String Shot, turning the move into a surprisingly effective anti-ghost trap. They narrowly escape a group of powerful ghosts and discover a princess’s room containing a dormant Magearna and a mysterious red sphere tied to Larvesta’s past.

Larvesta absorbs the sphere’s power, raises her aptitude to Master, and learns that her mother left it for her. Magearna awakens, immediately calls Jiang Yu “Daddy,” and turns out to be a newborn mythical Pokémon. She’s too weak to fight, but she helps open a way back to the forest. Jiang Yu now has a secret mythical Pokémon to protect, alongside Larvesta and the loyal Leavanny.

The forest event also brings trouble with human classmates. Huang Hao leads students in trying to capture Leavanny, hoping to sell her. Jiang Yu chooses to defend his Pokémon rather than protect his reputation. Larvesta unleashes a barrage he calls “flame machine gun,” while Leavanny finishes the opponents. Jiang Yu makes Huang Hao surrender his points—and then has Larvesta keep attacking his Pokémon until they’re out of the competition. His friends may joke about his dramatic speeches, but he has finally stopped treating the world like a tourist attraction and decided to fight for the people—and Pokémon—who matter to him.

Jiang Yu’s team grows further when he meets a stubborn Mudkip in a water realm. The little Pokémon wants to surpass its powerful Swampert father and initially refuses to be trained by anyone it considers weak. Jiang Yu wins it over with energy cubes, healing, and the promise that its achievements will still belong to it. He also convinces its father to let it leave, after showing that Larvesta carries Ho-Oh’s sacred fire. The Mudkip is terrified of Leavanny, however, leading to a running joke: Jiang Yu realizes that his new Water-type is already frightened of Grass-types and will need to overcome that fear.

In Shanghai, a black-market trip introduces Jiang Yu to a dangerous world of fake items, illegal Pokémon trading, and valuable hidden treasures. He buys an injured Mimikyu egg and uses his mother’s powerful Pokémon to fend off three would-be robbers. The egg proves to have quasi-Champion potential. Leavanny enthusiastically knits a whole collection of Pikachu costumes for it, while Larvesta negotiates payment in ice cream to help keep the egg warm.

The danger escalates when Suicune, wounded after being betrayed in a plot involving the league and the International Thief Association, secretly turns up in Jiang Yu’s bedroom. He hides and heals the legendary Pokémon rather than handing it over to an organization Suicune no longer trusts. When attackers strike again, Suicune protects Jiang Yu, and he helps hold off several elite Pokémon until a league investigator arrives. The fight makes Jiang Yu a public sensation, but it also means powerful criminals now know his name.

Suicune later trains the team. Its Water Essence helps Mudkip grow into Marshtomp and dramatically improves his water control. In a rematch against Tang Yuexuan’s Milotic, Marshtomp lands move after move before Milotic can respond, finally avenging his earlier defeat. Meanwhile, Larvesta keeps mastering her unusual fire and bug moves, Magearna grows stronger in secret, and Mimikyu’s egg is safely cared for.

The story ends with a new goal in sight: the Supernova Challenge, where the winner can earn a pseudo-legendary egg. To qualify, each Pokémon must defeat an opponent at least one level higher. Jiang Yu accepts the challenge, despite Larvesta still being a long way from evolving and Mimikyu not even having hatched. He’s now building a team—and a reputation—in a world where strength, money, and political intrigue are all tangled together.
