Pokémon: The Sims.

Chapter 201 The Legend of Waveguides

Rota City.

A city located in the mountains north of Fukami City and Tsukimi-yama.

The city is full of medieval style, similar to old European cities.

The city consists of half land and half lake.

In the middle of the lake is a small island with a castle called 'Orudron City' built on it. The only way to get there is by crossing a long bridge.

The main story of the theatrical film "Lucario: Lucario and the Aura" takes place here.

However, these are just two stories that appear in this theatrical version.

These events occurred eight hundred years ago and two hundred years later, respectively.

Neither Wu Ge nor Liz can catch up to either of them.

But to say that it has absolutely nothing to do with Wu Ge is not true.

The city of Rota eight hundred years ago.

It is also one of the cities within the territory of the Dragon Kingdom.

At that time, the administrator of this place was 'Lynn', who lived in the city of Ordron, and the person who assisted her was the city's knight and wave guide, Aaron.

It was during the Three Kingdoms period.

The main target for attack in the northern Sinnoh region is Kanto.

As a major city in the northern region, Rota inevitably became one of the first targets of the impact.

But coincidentally, the Tree of Origin is also located here.

"In the legend of the Aura, it was Alan, the messenger of the Aura, who sacrificed his own power to activate the power of the World Tree and thus quell the war."

"Meow?"

Masked Cat frowned and tilted its head in confusion.

It's a cat that's lived for twenty years.

She seriously doubted whether this legend was true.

Humans can speak.

That's because there are too many magical forces in this world, and too many superstitious people. Besides, it's just a legend; whether people believe it or not, they can just talk about it.

Who knows if that's true?
Is that really important?

"I do not know then."

Wu Ge shook his head.

He really didn't know that.

That's how it's described and portrayed in the movie.

In any case, it was the power of the World Tree that drove the crystals near Rota City that could transmit waveguide energy.

These crystals released a cluster of snowflake-like substances.

The Pokémon involved in the war calmed down and returned to their own countries.

That's ridiculous.

Because it is based on the true historical records.

The Three Kingdoms War escalated to the point where even Ho-Oh and Lugia were drawn out.

The war only came to an end under the threat of the two first-level gods.

What does it have to do with the World Tree?
but.

The history depicted in the movie is different from the timeline in which Wu Ge lives.

A thousand years ago in the movie.

Kanto and Sinnoh are still enslaving Pokémon.

The war also directly resulted in a massive Pokémon army pressing in, while humans remained completely neutral.

In the movie, the two armies are facing off, and all you can see are Pokémon wearing armor, while not a single human is in sight.

If that's the case.

Whether the World Tree can quell the war is hard to say.

Although the World Tree is essentially a crystal life form that relies on light for energy, it has a symbiotic relationship with Dream.

And dreamlike.

That is the 'ancestor of all Pokémon'.

It possesses the genes of the vast majority of Pokémon.

So, would the energy radiated by the World Tree through the use of waveguide power simultaneously possess the properties of waveguide power and dreamlike nature?

It can both influence all Pokémon and calm their emotions.

Although the possibility is small and it sounds somewhat far-fetched.

Besides.

Wu Ge really couldn't think of any other possibility to confirm this legend.

"Meow."

Masked Cat glanced at the towering trees in the distant mountains and forests, then looked away.
"Meow?"

"No rush, let's go to the city center first. Today is the annual festival in Rota City, it's very lively, let's take a look."

Wu Ge grinned and gently rubbed Masked Cat's head.

This includes time spent at sea.

A year has passed since they left Saiyu City.

But even though so much time has passed.

Masked Cat still feels sad about Sora's passing from time to time.

This is the first time she has experienced the pain of losing a family member, and it is indeed difficult for her to get over it.

It's not necessary to burst into tears.

It's common for me to feel depressed for half a day.

Whenever something trivial happens in her life that reminds her of the past and her memories of Sora, she suddenly becomes melancholy.

Wu Ge also often took Masked Cat with him everywhere.

Hopefully, we can help Masked Cat relax a bit through various fun activities.

"Meow meow?"

Masked Cat turned its head and looked around.

She said that the group of people were dressed so strangely, and their style was not the same as that of people in other cities.

It turns out there's a celebration today.

"During the festival, all residents of Rota City are required to wear royal costumes in the style of the past. The main events of the festival are the battle tournament and the royal ball. The winner of the battle tournament will receive the title of 'Hero of the Wave' for that year."

Wu Ge glanced at the people around him, then looked up at the sky.

It was still very early.

The crowd was heading towards the center of Rota City.

"Meow?"

"Go if you want to. They're probably holding a battle tournament there to select the Aura Hero."

Wu Ge nodded. He followed the flow of people with Masked Cat and soon arrived at the central area of ​​Rota City.

In the past, there was a tournament in Rota City.

However, the tournament, in which trainers and Pokémon fight together, is a complete replica of the battlefield from the Warcraft era.

Now it's starting to become more entertainment-oriented and competitive.

It can be said to be the original form of Pokémon battle tournament.

"Meow!"

Masked Cat excitedly pointed to the battlefield.

Wu Ge turned his head and was immediately stunned.

Because of this moment.

The two sides on the battlefield are none other than...

It is none other than Yamanashi Kazuki, who is now in his thirties!

"Mom! Come on!"

"Go, Mom! Take the title of Waveguide Hero! Don't lose to Dad!"

"That's right, that's right, becoming the first female Aura Hero in history!"

Off the court.

Three little boys of different ages jumped and skipped excitedly, trying their best to cheer for their mother.

"Meow?!"

Masked Cat's face showed an expression of utter shock.

"Wow~ This is really surprising. After realizing that she couldn't beat Yamanashi, Natsuki simply married him and had three sons as revenge? No wonder she's such a vicious woman."

Wu Ge was also amazed.

He never expected things to develop this way.

The Pokémon that clashed on the battlefield were Staraptor and Toxicroak.

The two Pokémon are at roughly the same level.

The Starhawk was likely bred by Yamanashi when he began his journey.

Natsuki's Poison Skull Frog seems to have fought less in recent years, and its level is not much different from before, allowing Yamanashi's later-raised Starhawk to catch up.

However, Yamanashi and Natsuki's fighting styles have changed a lot from the past.

"Meow?!"

Masked Cat was startled.

She was surprised that Natsuki's fighting style had become so straightforward, and there was no cunning or treachery in his moves, only pure violence.

Instead, Yamanashi's fighting style became unpredictable and unpredictable, unlike the cunning Natsuki of the past.

But it is indeed quite different from the straightforward style that Yamanashi used to have.

"Marriage is terrifying; it can completely change two people."

Wu Ge crossed his arms and shook his head with a sigh.

Both sides fought with all their might, showing no mercy just because they were husband and wife.

The ending remains unchanged from the past.

The winner is Yamanashi.

This has been the case for over a decade.

"The winner is Yamanashi and his Starhawk!"

The referee raised the flag for Yamanashi's side, declaring victory in the battle.

"Oh oh oh!!"

"It seems that this year's Aura Hero has been born."

"Yeah, it's such a pity. I thought we'd finally get a female character in Aura Warriors."

"There's no way around it, there aren't many girls who are interested in PvP. They still prefer that 'flashy show' that's recently become popular in Hoenn?"

The onlookers cheered for the new Aura Hero, and the atmosphere throughout Rota City was quite good.

"Huh?! Isn't that the Lizard King and Masked Cat?!"

As Yamanashi put away his Pokémon and thanked the crowd around him, he immediately spotted Wu Ge standing out from the rest.

He didn't even care about his wife and children, and ran straight towards Wu Ge's location.

You've changed so much!

Looking at the stubble and wrinkles on Yamashita's face, Wu Ge couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

Human lifespan is far too short.

How many partings will we have to go through?
If that's the case, then it's better to just sleep for a long, long time.

If one does not develop feelings for other humans, there will be no separation due to the end of human lifespan.

Wu Ge at this moment.

I think I understand a little better now.

Why do those legendary Pokémon spend most of their time sleeping?

Even Ho-Oh, who likes to wander around, only looks around and doesn't develop any deep bonds with any particular person.

"It's been such a long time! It's so great to see you again. By the way, you and Masked Cat seem to have grown taller. It looks like you've become much stronger too."

Yamanashi reached out and patted Wu Ge's hand, and it was a little difficult for her to look up at Wu Ge.

"Meow."

Masked Cat smiled and waved to greet the other party.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Wu Ge smiled slightly in response.

"Hehe, Torterra and I are pretty strong now, how about a battle? I'll stake it on the name of the Aura Warrior!"

Yamanashi loosened the tie on his chest and pulled out another Poké Ball from his waist.

"Hmph, since you're looking for a beating, I don't mind playing along."

Wu Ge stared blankly at the middle-aged man in front of him for a moment, then grinned.

Just now, the moment Yamanashi lifted the Poké Ball.

He doesn't seem to have changed much compared to when he was a young man named Yamanashi.

'Indeed, this kind of life suits me best.'

Different people will make different choices.

For Wu Ge, a life spent in constant slumber was far too boring.

He wouldn't deliberately avoid a friendship that would deepen because he was afraid of the final farewell.

That kind of life is too boring; it's better to cherish everything.

Even if life is short.

You must live an incredibly wonderful life.
