Pokémon: The Sims.

Chapter 195 When We Join Forces, We Are Invincible (The End)
BGM: Failure

--------

There are approximately thirty to forty members of the Ariados race.

About ten of them are at level 40 or above, which means they have already entered the mid-level combat power category in the wild.

This Alethos tribe was very likely the rulers of this small forest.

"Soulai".

The scyther glanced around.

He felt it was a bit tricky, but he wasn't afraid.

Three years.

He has already cultivated to level 45, which is incredibly fast.

The key point is that he learned a lot of powerful moves from his master and senior sister.

If he hadn't spent so much time learning the moves, his level would definitely have been higher.

"Meow"

Meanwhile, the masked cat beside them was yawning from exhaustion.

She has now reached level 60, which means she has entered the Gym level.

She wouldn't be afraid to face the entire Ariados tribe by herself.

What's more, he has a little follower by his side to divert attention.

"Should we fight?"

"Meow (Of course)."

Masked Cat patted its cheeks to clear its head.

Although she didn't take the spiders seriously, she still had to be careful.

Wu Ge once said that.

No matter how strong you are, there will always be times when you make a mistake.

When a certain number of low-level Pokémon are present, they can pose a threat to high-level Pokémon.

How do you type "sōrai"?

Meow~ (I'll hit you as you see fit~)

Masked Cat tiptoed, bent down, and murmured something.
"Meow~ (Don't worry~ If we join forces, we're invincible~)"

The words fell.

Masked Cat darted out in a flash, her figure almost blending into the forest with her high-speed movement, making her difficult to spot with the naked eye.

In the blink of an eye, Masked Cat appeared behind her and lightly swung out a claw.

Swish!
The acrobatic damage from flying-type attacks is highly effective against Alidos.

With just that one movement, the Ariados flipped in the air and lay flat on the ground.

the other side.

When the Scizor saw the Masked Cat lean down, it immediately prepared for battle.

We fought together for three years.

He was certainly aware of the stance Masked Cat would take before launching an attack.

When Masked Cat disappeared beside me.

The scyther immediately swung its arms, sending numerous vacuum waves at the surrounding Ariados.

His fighting ability is inferior to Masked Cat.

Therefore, most of the time, Scizor assists from the sidelines, harassing the opponent and allowing Meowth to launch the fatal blow.

Just like the flying mantis and Wu Ge in the past.

The two worked together very well.

Although the Ariados are numerous, most classes pose little threat to them.

After a little while, the battle came to an end.

Watching the retreating Alethos tribe.

Masked Cat and Scizor smiled at each other in the sunlight, their eyes filled with trust and understanding.

Then, without prior arrangement, they reached out and patted each other on the shoulder.

On the tree trunk not far away.

Wu Ge sat quietly, his eyes fixed on the two little ones. He pursed his lips, his gaze filled with a mixture of relief and bittersweetness.

The era in which he fought alongside Scyther.

It feels like just yesterday.

But so much time has passed.

"Hey."

Wu Ge spoke to the two little ones.

"Meow?"

Upon seeing Wu Ge, Masked Cat rushed over immediately.

The disrespectful child reached out and tugged at Wu Ge's tail.

"Soulai".

The scyther won't act like the masked cat.

He bowed respectfully and said, "Master."

Although Wu Ge never officially acknowledged being his master, the Scizor always believed that Wu Ge was its master.

Because he truly taught me like a master.

His master was the most powerful lizard king in the eyes of humans.

I think about this every time.

Although the Scizor doesn't outwardly display pride like the Masked Cat, it's definitely secretly pleased with itself.

"Scizor, it's time for us to leave."

"Solai?"

The scyther widened its eyes, opened its mouth, and then nodded.

Three years.

Just right.

This was agreed upon at the time.

"Do you want to leave with us? I'll take you to Silver Mountain."

“.Soulai”.

A flicker of hesitation and doubt crossed the scyther's eyes, but it ultimately shook its head.

It is recorded in human history.

The woman who was with my ancestor said that her ancestors came from the Silver Mountain in the Jodo region.

But how did Master know?

"Is there anything you need to do?"

"Soulai".

The scyther nodded vigorously.

There was an old man in the city of Aromatherapy who had been kind to him.

It was that old man who gave him the metal film and told him so many stories.

He wanted to repay this kindness before leaving.

"Really? Then let's go. Will you see us off at the port?"

Wu Ge raised his head.

Their next stop is the Unova region.

The matter of crossing the sea can be left to Wu Ge's fishing friends from the past three years; that shouldn't be a problem.

"Soulai".

Without hesitation, the Scizor followed immediately.

Along the way, a gentle breeze rustled past them through the woods, making the leaves whisper.

The same road was the one where Scyther escorted Wu Ge away back then.

Masked Cat and Scizor followed behind Wu Ge.

Not a word.

The scyther is usually quiet and reserved.

this is nothing.

The mischievous and lively Masked Cat, however, fell silent, which was rather unusual.

Especially the little tail, which is usually never still, now seems to have lost its vitality and is completely motionless. But Wu Ge understands.

After all, they had spent three years together, day and night.

They seemed to have become family to each other.

It's normal to feel sad when you're about to part ways.

three years.

The text can be glossed over.

But in reality...

How many three-year periods does one have in a lifetime?

After all.

Because he kept following Wu Ge around everywhere.

Aside from Lapras, Masked Cat doesn't actually have any particularly close friends.

As for the time spent together...

The scyther has been around for much longer than the lapras.

What are your dreams for the future?

Wu Ge looked at the giant mantis beside him.

“.Soulai”.

After repaying the kindness, I will go and visit Baiyin Mountain.

The scyther's answer was simple and clear.

"Is that so? Hmm, go ahead."

Wu Ge nodded without saying anything more.

perhaps.

The scyther will find the cave halfway up the mountain on Silver Mountain.

That place where he used to live with Scyther.

"Meow (What happened after seeing Mt. Shirogane)?"

"I'm coming to find you."

The scyther was taken aback.

But he said it immediately without any hesitation.

"Meow (It's a deal)."

Masked Cat looked at the Scizor beside it and stretched out a fist.

"Soulai".

The Scizor raised its paw and touched the Masked Cat.

We arrived at the port.

An older man had been waiting for a long time, and there was a speedboat next to him.

Upon seeing Wu Ge and the others approaching, they quickly stood up and waved.

"Yo~ Lizard King~ Ready to set off?"

"Ah."

Wu Ge nodded at him.

There were many older men around the port, all of whom Wu Ge had met over the past three years.

I came here today especially to see you off.

"Is there anything else you've forgotten?"

Wu Ge looked at Masked Cat.

The latter shook his head, lowered his head, and jumped onto the boat.

"."

The Scizor glanced at Masked Cat's retreating figure, looking somewhat disappointed.

"See you again."

Wu Ge reached out and touched the head of the scyther.

Turn around.

Once on the ship, he reached out and tugged at Masked Cat's big ears.

"When saying goodbye, make sure you have no regrets."

Wu Ge whispered something earnestly in the ear of the masked cat.

"."

Masked Cat pouted and peeked over its shoulder.

Seeing so many people at the port, she still felt too embarrassed to run back.

Bang!
The ship left the port and gradually headed north.

"Masked Cat, life is unpredictable, and we cannot guarantee that we will meet everyone again."

Wu Ge looked up at the sky and sighed.

Sometimes saying 'goodbye' means you may never see each other again.

"."

The masked cat's ears drooped as it turned to look at the harbor.

The scyther stood rooted to the spot, staring blankly northward, much like the stone statue in the city of Aromatherapy that forever gazed northward.

The middle-aged men around them raised their arms and waved goodbye.

Only the scyther looked very sad.

Perhaps in the next few years.

The mantis, like its ancestors, might often stand at the harbor, gazing blankly northward.

"Meow! (Scizor!)"

Masked Cat suddenly shouted loudly towards the south.

"Solai?"

The scyther snapped out of its daze and abruptly looked up at Masked Cat.

"Meow~ (Let's fight together again next time~)"

Masked Cat waved its arm, revealing its most radiant smile, just like the humans on the shore.

"Swoosh~"

A few tears quietly appeared in the eyes of the scyther.

He didn't have time to wipe it off, so he raised his arm and swung it forcefully.

Behind Masked Cat.

Wu Ge smiled faintly, a hint of nostalgia flashing in his eyes.

What did he say to Scyther when he left Silver Mountain?

It seems so.
Let's fight together again next time.

“Ah Lan”.

Liz's voice came from beside her.

Wu Ge turned his head to look to the side.

Liz looked towards the harbor, raised her arm and waved, then looked at him:
"You should say goodbye properly too."

"..I?"

Wu Ge stared at Liz's eyes for a moment, stunned.

He followed Liz's gaze to the harbor and froze on the spot.

A hunched-over, wounded flying mantis stood alone in a sunless corner of the harbor.

His only remaining eye was cloudy and gray, as if it had witnessed endless wind and frost and the passing years.

But he still found Wu Ge's direction and raised his arm to wave gently in this direction.

Two streams of hot tears welled up in Wu Ge's eyes, and snot streamed uncontrollably from his sore nostrils.

He lowered his head and covered his eyes with his arm, not wanting Masked Cat to see his expression.

but
I looked up again at the lonely old mantis.

Wu Ge, however, couldn't control his expression.

"Goodbye."

　Tips:
　　The phrase "If we join forces, we will be invincible" first appeared when Wu Ge and Scyther fought together for the first time, also against the Ariados clan.
