Pokémon: The Sims

The next day.

The round of 32 matches were played in the morning.

Wu Ge and his group boarded the bus to Zhenxin Town in the afternoon.

There's not much to say about the duel with Kikuko.

The three level 70+ Elite Four Ghost-type Pokémon stood there, beating Wu Ge and his two companions like they were babies.

After arriving in Pallet Town, they continued south to a port in southern Kanto and boarded a ship bound for the fourth island of the Seven Islands.

on board.

"Sigh, I didn't win the championship. I hope those brats will laugh at me when I get back."

Kona sighed dramatically.

In fact, his smugness was practically overflowing.

She certainly knew that she had achieved good results.

Don't tell me you're only ten years old.

Even at eighteen, making it to the top 32 in the competition is something to brag about.

"Alright, let's hurry back. I want to eat Mom's cooking."

Wu Ge lay in Lucario's arms like a baby, crossing his legs like a grandpa.

"Lucario! Don't spoil him too much! What kind of behavior is this?!"

Kona glared at Wu Ge.

She walked over and snatched Wu Ge back, then rubbed his buttocks with her hand.

"Hmph, you're just jealous of me!"

Wu Ge tossed his head and wagged his chubby little tail.

Where to go next?

"Take a couple of days off. Didn't Mom tell you to go to Pokémon Academy a few days ago?"

Wu Ge sighed.

I can't help but marvel at how energetic children are.

But it was him.

I'm already feeling a bit tired after accompanying Ke on this trip for half a year.

It's not that I'm physically tired.

It's mental exhaustion.

The exhaustion of taking care of a child.

He just wanted to rest for a while.

Fortunately, when I contacted Lorelei's mother at the Pokémon Center a few days ago, she said that she would send Lorelei to Pokémon Academy once Lorelei returned.

Then Wu Ge can finally relax.

"Lucario, do you want to come to school with me?"

Kona seemed to have suddenly come up with a brilliant idea, and turned to look at the standing dog.

".?"

Lucario can be quite helpless sometimes.

He couldn't understand what was going on in this human child's mind.

He turned to look at Wu Ge, hoping that this adult could persuade him.

"You can go too."

Wu Ge yawned.

"Wangwu?"

Lucario looked surprised and doubtful.

It seems like they're asking Wu Ge if he's serious.

"Haven't you realized you're out of touch with the world? Even though you're a Pokémon from the past, your future is this completely new era, and you probably don't even know as much as Lorelei, a little kid."

Wu Ge shook his head and patted Lucario's arm.

"Don't underestimate Pokémon Academy; there's a lot of knowledge there that I don't even know."

"it is good."

Lucario nodded.

He was somewhat reluctant to go to school with the children.

But he believed what Wu Ge said.

"Hehe! Piplup, once Lucario comes with me, there won't be anyone to serve you anymore, aren't you angry?"

Kona poked Wu Ge's little butt.

“Mom will naturally take care of me in place of Lucario.”

Wu Ge glanced at her speechlessly.

Kona's mother took such good care of him that no dog could ever match her care.

After all, there are many things dogs can't do.

Let's just put it that way.

In the days when Wu Ge was first taken in by Kona and was still a baby, Kona's mother would even put a loincloth on him every day.

"Pooh!"

Kona pouted and ignored him.

Time passed little by little.

After several hours of sea breeze, they arrived at the fourth island.

"We'll probably be staying here a bit longer from now on. How does that feel?"

Wu Ge turned to look at Lucario beside him.

"The sound of the sea is very loud."

Lucario instinctively closed his eyes and used his waveguide to sense his surroundings.

"I'm not asking you to use a waveguide to see, but to use your naked eye to see what the scenery is like and whether the environment is comfortable."

"The air is humid."

"Yes, that's exactly how it is here."

Wu Ge nodded.

For creatures like Lucario with thick fur, humid air is definitely not a good thing.

But for Wu Ge, a Water-type Pokémon, this environment is very comfortable.

They chatted as they walked home.

When you get home.

Kona's mom has already prepared delicious desserts and is waiting for them.

"Mom~"

Upon seeing her mother after so long, Cona raised her arms and rushed to her.

"Bogarman~ Long time no see~"

Mom ignored Kona and picked up Wu Ge in one swift motion, first pinching his tail.

"mom!"

Kona shouted angrily.

"What's wrong?"

Mom turned to look at Kona, gave her a perfunctory touch on the face, then looked at the dog and reached out her hand.

"Ah, this must be Lucario. He looks like a good baby. Come on in, we're family now."

"Oh."

Lucario was startled for a moment when his mother patted his head.

He hadn't been treated so gently in a long time.

Wu Ge sensed Lucario's inner aura and couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

Gentle and friendly humans are very attractive to Pokémon, and can easily win a Pokémon's heart.

Wood Gecko, Chimchar, Torkoal, Gliscor.

These are all Pokémon captured by Ash's Awful nature.

Although Ash is quite straightforward when it comes to women, he's a total softie when it comes to Pokémon.

"Alright, when Dad comes home tonight, we'll invite the neighbors over for dinner in the yard. Everyone saw how you two, Kona and Bogarman, did. The younger brothers and sisters on the island really admire you."

"Really? Hehehe..."

Kona, upon being praised, immediately forgot all the anger she had just suffered.

She scratched the back of her head sheepishly, then rushed into her room.

Wu Ge didn't even need to think to know.

This kid definitely needs to dress up and mentally prepare a speech so he can brag about it tonight.

Ordinary daily life, ordinary arrival.

After resting at home for a week, Lorelei and Lucario were sent to study on the Fifth Island.

The Fifth Island is the most open of the Seven Islands, home to famous attractions such as Pokémon Academy, luxury resorts, the Hole of No Return, the Water Labyrinth, and the Tower of Memories.

This place is known as the 'Island Where Time Passes Slowly'.

The distance between the fifth island and the fourth island is not far, but it is certainly not close either.

It takes one or two hours to go back and forth.

However, the academy sends a special yacht to pick up students from each island, so it doesn't bother parents.

Pokémon Academy has requirements.

Each student can only bring one Pokémon to school.

Originally, Kona was dragging Wu Ge along, insisting on taking him with her.

But Wu Ge didn't want to go.

He just wanted to stay home, watch TV with his mom, and get some rest.

And if he goes, Lucario won't be able to go.

So in the end, it was Lorelei's mother who spoke up, which allowed Lorelei and Lucario to go to school together.

"When can I travel with Bogarman again?"
