Pokémon: The Sims.

Chapter 348 Love is okay too~
"Huh? What's wrong? Riolu, why are you looking at me like that? Do you want to eat this?"

Seeing Wu Ge staring at her, Yangzi raised the donut in her hand and smiled.
"Okay~ but you have to let Auntie give you a kiss."

Say it.

Regardless of whether Wu Ge agreed or not, she reached out and pulled Wu Ge into her arms, groping him all over.

"Ah! Yoko is so cunning!"

"That's right, I want to chop Riolu too!"

"Hehehehe, the butt is mine now."

"Wang Wang Wang!!"

Hera looked at the dog howling incessantly in the crowd, and nudged Cynthia beside her.
Aren't you going to stop it?

"Hmm? Emmm, I think Riolu is quite happy."

A question mark appeared above Cynthia's head.

Although Riolu's cries were loud, she did not sense any distress or anger from them.

in contrast.

Cynthia thought Wu Ge seemed to be enjoying being surrounded by so many young ladies.

half an hour.

Peace and tranquility have returned to the club.

Wu Ge lay on the crib next to him, too lazy to even move his tail.

He had a newborn baby, Eevee, on his back, but he couldn't be bothered to care.

At the small table next to it.

Cynthia was humbly asking Yoko for advice.

"Based on my research over the years, there are some Pokémon evolution conditions that are vague and elusive, but they should exist."

Yoko reached out and stroked her chin.

"for example?"

"For example, the shy bud, the precious cocoon, and Riolu."

Coincidentally.

Cynthia had either bred or seen the Pokémon that Yoko mentioned, so they weren't unfamiliar to her.

"The evolution of these Pokémon does not rely on increasing their level or the need for special items. For example, your Riolu, according to you, has even mastered the power of Aura, so its level should be very high, right?"

Yoko turned her head to look at the dog inside the crib.

"Yeah, Riolu is amazing! Even more amazing than Garchomp!"

Cynthia nodded in affirmation.

Although Wu Ge rarely participates in gym battles, he has a lot of battles with other Pokémon in the wild.

In particular, Garchomp would engage in post-dinner battles with Wu Ge every few days.

Therefore, Cynthia knew that Wu Ge's level was very high.

and.

She can command Garchomp, but Wu Ge doesn't listen to her commands.

This also proves that Wu Ge's level is higher than Garchomp's.

"Yes, that's it. His evolution has nothing to do with his level."

"What does that have to do with? I've also tried cultivating the Mimosa pudica, but it evolved very quickly."

"Good question. Based on my guess, it should be related to 'relationships'."

Yoko pursed her lips and smiled.

She turned her head and glanced at the area around her legs, then casually picked up a Pichu.

Do you know how big this Pichola is?

Yoko tugged at Pichu's ear.

The little guy got a bit impatient, rubbed his cheeks, and released two sparks of electricity, giving Yangzi goosebumps.

"Hmm, five years old?"

Cynthia considered it for a moment.

She figured that since Yoko would ask that question, the Pichu must be quite old, so she guessed it was older.

Five years old.

This was already a lot in Cynthia's eyes.

After all, she herself is only 12 years old.

Even the oldest member of his team, Garchomp, is only four years old.

"This little guy is 22 years old. He was already in this club when I went on my trip, and he's at a very high level, probably even higher than your Riolu."

"Eh?!"

Cynthia stared in shock.

She couldn't tell at all that the harmless little yellow mouse was so old!
"The reason he didn't evolve might be the same as your Riolu: his 'emotion' level isn't up to par."

"What does that mean?"

"Because of some things in the past, Pichu doesn't like to interact with other people and Pokémon. He has always been very withdrawn and doesn't have any particularly close friends or family. As a result, he is lacking in emotional needs."

"Emotional needs?"

"Ok!"

Yangzi nodded solemnly and continued to explain.
"Although there's no proof, I think some of the evolution requirements for Pokémon might be related to emotions!"

"Narioel hasn't evolved yet."

Cynthia paused for a moment, then turned to look at Wu Ge, who was lying down and pretending to be dead.

"Hmm! His emotional needs aren't strong enough. Forgive me for being blunt, but the relationship between the two of you isn't good enough for him to evolve."

"!"

These words deeply hurt Cynthia, making her face turn ashen.

Wu Ge, who was standing next to him, twitched his ears and continued to play dead.

broken.

He never expected that such a small, tiny place would produce someone who truly knows their stuff!
"But I feel that I have a very good relationship with Riolu, and I like him very much."

Cynthia's lips moved slightly, responding with a hint of stubbornness.

She felt that Yangzi was wrong.

She didn't believe that Riolu couldn't evolve for that reason.

"Perhaps you don't like him as much as you think, or perhaps he doesn't like you as much as you think." Yoko glanced at Cynthia, not bothering to be tactful to avoid upsetting her.

This matter is quite important.

Rather than letting Cynthia remain confused in the future, it's better to tell her the reason directly and encourage her to reflect on herself.

A trainer shouldn't be so easily defeated with just a few words.

Then it's best not to continue traveling.

"Riolu! Say something!"

Cynthia tugged at the big ear of the dog next to her.

She desperately wished that Wu Ge could stand up and refute Yang Zi at this moment.

But Wu Ge continued to feign death.

Because he wasn't sure if he really liked Cynthia that much.

There are definitely feelings of liking someone.

But
It's probably not that profound.

In short, he might not be a good match for Cynthia's affection for him.

So Wu Ge felt a little guilty and didn't dare to look up and speak, pretending that he was exhausted from being sucked dry.

"Hehe, you guys must have just started your trip not long ago, right? To be honest, I don't see any particularly close or tacit understanding between you."

Yoko's words dealt another blow to Cynthia.

She was right.

Although Wu Ge and Cynthia have known each other for more than two years, they have only traveled together for about four months.

This amount of time is hardly enough to cultivate a deep relationship.

Especially for a special Pokémon like Wu Ge, who has lived for over a hundred years and is accustomed to life and death.

Yesterday's visit to the Tourmaline Cave was the most obvious example.

Wu Ge and Cynthia's ideas are never aligned.

Wu Ge didn't want Cynthia to get close to the electric spider.

Cynthia didn't want Wu Ge to enter the cave to find the Red-faced Dragon.

This is a sign of a lack of understanding or tacit agreement.

The reason why there wasn't a big argument like at the Qibao Museum was simply because these two things weren't that serious and Wu Ge was accommodating to Cynthia.

Cynthia lowered her head in reflection.

In the end, I had to admit it.

"You're right, my relationship with Riolu might not be as good as I thought."

"I'm not giving up," Cynthia said unwillingly.

"Hmm, so we've found the reason why he can't evolve."

Seeing that Cynthia had figured out the situation, Yoko nodded with satisfaction.

Only by seriously reflecting on oneself and clearly understanding one's shortcomings can one have the opportunity to improve.

"Why is it so hard for Riolu to evolve? My Budwolf seems to have evolved in just one month."

Cynthia looked up in confusion and asked.

Is her four-month relationship with Riolu really less meaningful than her one-month relationship with Bud?

"You must have hatched the mimosa bud from the egg yourself, right?"

"um, yes."

"That's right. The first thing the shy bud sees when it hatches from the egg is you. It will naturally have a very high level of affection for you. In addition, she is young and innocent. If you treat her a little nicely, she will like you very much, and the relationship will heat up very quickly."

Yoko wasn't surprised at all, and then pointed to the dog in the crib.

"Look at Riolu, you're a smart dog."

"Yes! I know! Many people praise Riolu for being smart!"

Cynthia nodded with a hint of pride.

"Yeah, let's not even talk about mastering the power of waveguides in the first stage, which can be attributed to talent. But playing dead in this situation is incredibly clever. What a naughty dog."

Yangzi seemed to be thinking of one of her ex-boyfriends, and angrily reached out and pinched Wu Ge's butt.

Wu Ge:

He's lying so flat, how could he possibly harm innocent bystanders?

"Intelligent Pokémon can often exert greater combat power in battles and can also save trainers a lot of trouble in daily life."

Yangzi changed the subject at this point.
"However, they are also more mature, so it's a bit difficult to get along with these Pokémon~ Especially since Riolu needs a deep bond to evolve."

"It's ok."

As soon as Yoko finished speaking, Cynthia shook her head.

"Oh?"

"Although the bond between us may not be that deep right now, sooner or later, I will make Riolu fall irrevocably in love with me."

Cynthia smiled confidently.

Upon hearing this, Wu Ge wagged its tail, which made Cynthia smile.

"Hehe, judging from the current situation, you do have that potential, but which aspect of the relationship are you planning to start with?"

Yoko stared at Cynthia with great interest, a sly expression suddenly appearing on her face.

"Well?"

Cynthia was stunned and somewhat confused.

"Whether it's feelings or bonds, they come in many forms: kinship, friendship, gratitude. Which aspect do you plan to focus on?"

As Yoko finished speaking, she leaned close to Cynthia's ear.

"Oh, and love works too!"

"Love, love, love"

Cynthia blushed, her expression becoming somewhat unnatural.
"Humans and Pokémon? How could that be?"

Before she could finish speaking...

Yangzi then took out her wallet and retrieved a wedding photo.

What shocked Cynthia was...

The man in the black suit turned out to be a Pokémon she had never seen before!

"Although we can't get a League-certified marriage certificate, no one has ever said that love can't develop between humans and Pokémon."
