Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game

This inevitable fact saddened Kirullian.

…………

Although you were saddened by this, you quickly accepted reality and decided to fulfill your mission.

Kirlian: "..."

I was still caught up in my emotions when the simulator started urging me to continue. Is it just reading thin air?

Helpless, Kirlia forced herself to accept reality and continue her journey.

You and Pikachu travel in the Rainbow Stone Boat, located in the ancient ruins at the highest point of the Dreamland, to the Tower of Time. But as you reach the top and prepare to place the five Time Gears into the tower, Dark Dialga appears...

It's here! The ultimate boss of this simulated world has finally arrived!

Kirullian was both excited and nervous at that moment.

The excitement lies in the fact that as long as Dialga is defeated, he will be able to complete the first simulated world, and given the nature of the system, this will definitely be an extremely huge reward.

Needless to say, he was apprehensive, because this was Dark Dialga!

Although the gap between ordinary and legendary Pokémon isn't that large in this world, and given that he had already become a level 75 Gardevoir through a year of "leveling up"...

However, Dialga's legendary status was too great, and Kirlia had a premonition that it would be the most powerful enemy she would ever encounter in this world.

Fortunately, the system wasn't too ruthless; Celebi arrived just as the battle was about to begin.

Kirullian's confidence surged instantly.

Isn't it just a legendary elf?

Who doesn't have one?

Moreover, I have three Pokémon on my side, so the advantage is in my hands!

Kirlia, full of confidence, charged forward with Celebi and Pikachu.

Then, I typed gg...

This time, I got stuck a lot more times, a total of five times, for almost two months!

…………

Let's go back to the present, October 25th.

Having learned from her previous five failures, Kirlia prepared thoroughly and embarked on her sixth challenge against Dark Dialga.

Based on her previous experiences, Kirlia changed her tactics this time, first using hypnosis to hit Dark Dialga.

Then, taking advantage of the situation, Celebi used moves like Leech Seed and Toxic to stall for time, while Pikachu also took the opportunity to use Thunder Wave on Dark Dialga.

He then took the opportunity to meditate and strengthen himself, preparing to unleash a powerful attack on Dialga later.

This tactic was very effective. Under the influence of multiple negative status effects, Dark Dialga's condition deteriorated and he was about to fall.

But Kirlia knew that before it fell, it would unleash a terrifying cannon beam attack in a final, desperate counterattack. The first two times, it had fallen here, unable to dodge it no matter what it did.

So this time, she decided not to run away anymore, but to gather the power of the three Pokémon to suppress the Time Roar head-on and completely defeat Dark Dialga!

Celebi, Flash! Pikachu, Thunder!

While directing her two companions, Kirlia also gathered all the remaining energy in her body, preparing to unleash the power of the moon.

Opposite her, Dark Dialga, just like the previous five times, roared one last time.

"Homu——"

Chapter 215 The Girl's Transformation, Gardevoir Appears! (7.4k!)

Through your perseverance, courage, wisdom, and of course, most importantly, strength, you and your companions defeated Dark Dialga.

[With no obstacles remaining on your path to saving the world, you place five Gears of Time at the top of the tower. The Tower of Time trembles violently, and you and your partner Pikachu fall unconscious.]

When you awaken from your coma, Dialga returns to normal, and time resumes its normal flow. But you know your time is running out.

As you walk towards the Rainbow Stone Ark, you feel your body growing lighter and lighter, as if you're about to drift away with every step. Meanwhile, in Pikachu's eyes, your body is gradually disappearing...

Before you disappeared, you told Pikachu everything that had happened, including your promise to the forest lizard, leaving your partner heartbroken.

You encouraged your partner, assuring them that they would "never forget you," and then vanished from the world forever.

Pikachu looked back at the Tower of Time, a deep sadness welling up inside it.

The world comes to a close.

call--

The pixelated landscape that had been with me for over a year gradually faded, replaced by that familiar darkness.

Kirullian felt a pang of loss; she knew that after this parting, she would never see her companions again.

A sharp-tongued but always ready to step up in crucial moments; a sleepy but reliable guild leader; and the kind and warm-hearted members of the guild.

And Pikachu, who was always used as a tool by me, yet always stayed by my side.

After today, we'll never see them again...

Even though we know this world is virtual, and even the main world is made of pixels, how can there be no genuine emotions beneath the cold, fictional simulation?

Kirullian thought to herself with a sigh.

Well, this is only the first simulated world. There will be many more farewells like this in the future... Let's just move forward with big strides!

"System, end simulation!"

…………

[The Mysterious Dungeon world has ended. This simulation is over. System rating: SSS! Please claim your simulation rewards.]

Wow, three S's!

The system's first sentence surprised Kirlia. Was the system being unusually generous today?

Prior to this, simulations had been conducted for over a year, and the highest rating Kirlia had ever received was only S.

Back when I had just emerged from seclusion after exploiting a bug and became the Sword God of Shilipo, Kirlia led Pikachu all the way from the present world to the future world, and then back to the present world, pushing through a long part of the story before earning that reputation.

That time, Kirlia exchanged a second fragment of Aura Force from the system.

As expected, it still couldn't compare to completing the entire simulation world on the first try...

If the rewards for an S-level simulation are already this generous, just how amazing can a triple S-level simulation be?

Kirlian was already looking forward to the simulation rewards.

[Option 1: Energy Level +5 (An extremely cost-effective upgrade. Choosing this will allow your strength to increase to a level that even your trainer wouldn't believe in a short time!)]

[Option Two: Vitality, Strength, Knowledge... XL Candy x10 (Harvest season! A real candy gift pack, a full sixty candies, possessing all abilities, what are you waiting for!)]

[Option 3: Super Power Enhancement (Increases the power of all your superpowers by 20%! Note: This enhancement only applies to yourself.)]

[Option 4: The Eye of Emrido (Not actually Emrido's eye, but the red gem on the forehead of the goddess of emotions, which gathers her most primal energy. It is said that through it, you can understand the essence of emotions.)]

…………

The dazzling array of rewards made Kirullian's eyes dazzle; at that moment, only four words remained in her mind.

The system is impressive!

Even the energy level that I always ignored has jumped to level five this time. You should know that even when I was rated S last time, the energy level reward was only level three.

Secondly, there's the candy gift pack that I've been exploiting a bug with, which has six different types and a total of sixty candies.

However, compared to the two rewards that follow, these two options are nothing.

Kirlia was completely stunned when she saw the effect of the third reward, [Super Power Enhancement].

Psychic-type moves are increased by 20%!

What is this concept?

Kirlian remembered receiving a similar reward called [Meditation Enhancement], which increased meditation speed and effects by 25%.

This meditation enhancement alone has given Kirlia a significant advantage in many battles.

And needless to say, the even more exaggerated and widely applicable super-power enhancement is even more remarkable...

Adding another 20% to the 1.5x power boost of this type of move results in a 1.8x power boost!

It's almost as much as double the restraint!

If there were no fourth reward option, Kirlia would definitely choose this one.

But the fourth reward abruptly stopped Kirlia from saying "I choose option three," which she was about to blurt out.

Eye of Empyrean!

Having spent so much time by Xia Chen's side, Kirlia has come to know a bit about Emredo.

Among the lake gods created by Arceus, the god of emotions who spreads feelings to humankind, a legendary Psychic-type spirit!

In other words, this is a treasure belonging to a legendary spirit!

…………

Kirlia knew all too well how valuable items associated with legendary Pokémon were.

Whether it was the Horn of Xerneas that Sylvanas found back then, or the Giratina scales that the little dragon obtained during this period, they all brought about transformative effects on them, and I also benefited a little from it at the time.

While it's unclear how Memric compares to Xerneas and Giratina, they are all Psychic-type Pokémon and share a connection to emotions...

Kirlian had a premonition that this Eye of Emredo would be the most suitable legendary resource for her.

However, the super-powered enhancement reward is equally powerful, and the growth potential of this fixed-percentage bonus is also very high.

This is such a difficult decision...

Kirullian was caught in a dilemma.

Damn it... why do they have to put these rewards together and make me choose one of them!

Wait a minute...

The powerful mental strength brought by her superpowers made Kirlia suddenly realize a very small detail.

Normally, when a simulation ends, the system says "Choose your reward," but this time, it seems to say... "Claim your reward"?
