Pokémon: Legendary Pokémon Simulator, Starting with Arceus

The next morning, as usual, I rode the Four Seasons Deer to the examination hall, except that the morning exam was at the Tosho Nursery School, and I also had the Mudskipper on my shoulder.

The morning exam focused on checking the starter Pokémon's physical growth over the past month and its daily living conditions.

First, we need to consider the training method, and second, whether the initial Pokémon is good. These two aspects require comparison of initial data and a suitable environment.

The only suitable option was the incubator. He stopped outside the examination hall to say goodbye to his mother and followed the signs toward the examination room.

Upon reaching the main gate, I saw a sign that read: "Entering the gate marks the beginning of the college entrance examination."

Simple and clear, Xiong Meng thought about the information he saw while surfing the internet last night. He realized that he had been getting a rating from the moment he entered this door, and he had to be careful about every word he said.

Upon entering the main gate, you'll see a new sign indicating the location of the inspection room, with a line below stating that you should arrive at 9:30.

Xiong Meng checked the time; it was only a little past 8.

"...I should have slept in a little longer. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to come early since my exam number is already so early."

Walking towards the location indicated by the sign, I saw many candidates had already arrived, but none of them went to the examination room. Instead, they were looking around, searching for something.

Then a small rattata appeared, and the people next to it rushed over as if they had seen a treasure, stopping and walking slowly at a distance.

Hmm... the kind that approaches with a smile on their face, and then pulls out an energy cube from who-knows-where.

"Hehehe, little Rattata, come here! Big brother has some yummy food here~"

"Ignore that guy, brother, this one's top quality, come quick!"

"Both of them are trash. Look at my royal rations! They were specially airlifted from another region."

Xiong Meng: (°ー°〃)

Wait, what are these guys doing? Why do they look so sleazy?

Something's not right. That little Rada is acting strangely too; he didn't seem flustered at all as the group approached.

This scene surprised him somewhat. After checking himself several times to make sure he wasn't scared or anything like that, and confirming that he didn't need to worry about it, he walked toward the examination room.

A nearby camera moved slightly, recorded the scene, and uploaded it to the monitoring room. A staff member noted it down and uploaded it to the system.

When I got to the examination room, I saw a table outside. I looked around and saw that not many people were coming. I looked at the table and found the examination admission ticket number.

Find a seat and wait quietly. After a while, people started to come over one after another. After sitting down, they didn't stay idle and started interacting with their Pokémon.

It started with handshakes and casual conversations, then progressed to commands, and became increasingly exaggerated until one person was staring at their own starter Pokémon.

"Little Charmander will perform a special trick to amaze everyone!"

"Li~!"

The little fire dragon immediately launched into a street dance routine: ጿኈቼዽጿኈቼዽጿኈ.

Not to be outdone, someone directed Bobo to perform an acrobatic act, and another person made Miaomiao do a backflip.

Xiong Meng: Shocked (￣口￣)!!

He was shocked to find himself surrounded by a circus. No, had everyone gone mad?

This is his first time taking the world's college entrance exam. Is it a local custom? Or is it something that's mandatory?

He took the Mudkip from his head and placed it on the table. The man and the fish looked at each other.

• _ •

"It's alright now, just lie there quietly."

Looking at the time, it was 9:20. Xiong Meng estimated that the broadcast was about to start.

"All candidates, please sit quietly. The inspection is about to begin."

"Please all candidates sit quietly..."

"Please all candidates sit quietly..."

After the three broadcasts, everyone quieted down to make sure they heard the next announcement.

"The next candidates whose names are called, please proceed to the examination room. Nan Wenquan, please go to room number one; Mo Chengyu, please go to room number two..."

People entered the four rooms one after another, and the training department exam began.

After more than ten minutes, no one came out, but some people went in without their names being called.

Suddenly, three policemen entered through the door, went straight into the third room, and came out handcuffing the student who had just gone in.

"You're not going to learn anything good, are you? You're putting a hypnotic spell on your starter Pokémon, aren't you? You're really something."

"I didn't! I didn't!"

"Whether there's a machine or not, the elves know, so just come with us!"

It's unclear who he was talking to, but the police officer's voice was quite loud. As the police and students left, everyone remained quiet.

"Please proceed to room number three, Xiong Meng..."

The broadcast started, and some people watched Xiong Meng's retreating figure with schadenfreude.

It's a bit unlucky that someone was arrested and then immediately imprisoned. I hope he can stay calm.

"Don't be nervous, it was just an accident ✧(≖◡≖✿)."

Upon entering, he saw a male teacher with long hair sitting there. When Xiong Meng came in, the teacher flicked his flowing long hair and comforted him.

"Thank you for your concern, teacher. I'm fine."

"That's good. Is this little guy your starter Pokémon?" Xiong Meng nodded and pointed to the room next door.

"Little one, go over there for a check-up. There are teachers inside."

"Sell~" Mudkip looked at the man but didn't move until its trainer patted it before it slowly came down and went inside.

The male teacher's surprised gaze flashed by, his hands typing on the computer, suggesting a high level of favorability and that he was a good teacher.

"You're Xiong Meng, right? You'll have to wait a bit. Sit down and let's chat." The male teacher pointed to the seats in front of him, indicating that he could sit down and wait.

"I'm going to ask you a few questions next. You must answer truthfully, Xiong Meng. There are Psychic-type Pokémon in the back room that are sensing your emotions."

"First of all, on your way to the examination room this morning, several people surrounded Rada. You should know that they might have been very scared. Why did you just leave?"

Xiong Meng recalled what had just happened and slowly said, "Because Little Rada didn't seem scared at all, and her movements, expressions, and subtle actions indicated that she was in a good mood, I didn't need to meddle in her affairs."

"Okay, second question. There were many people interacting with the Pokémon outside just now. Why did you take them down, watch them for a while, and then put them back?"

"Hmm, is it possible that we've already interacted?" Xiong Meng said, stroking his chin.

"The Mudskipper's eyes are very interesting, but basic etiquette between people is eye contact, so eye contact is an important interaction in our daily lives."

Male teacher: ⊙∀⊙!

He hadn't expected this. The absence of an alarm on the computer meant it was telling the truth. Well, it seems people have different ways of having fun; even eye contact has become a form of play.

I had recorded the answers to the two questions truthfully and was about to finish when a small box suddenly popped up on the computer screen.

The male teacher immediately perked up, stood at attention, and changed his previous smiling expression to a very serious one.

"One last question, Xiong Meng: Why are you so confident? Why do you believe your observations are correct? Why do you believe that interaction is what the elves like?"

Please answer truthfully!
