Why would you need a girlfriend when you have Pokémon?

Chapter 24: Pokémon Center

Lowe's next destination is Kanaz City, with the goal of challenging the Rock Gym there.

However, to reach Kanaz City, one must first cross the Orange Forest. Considering that the journey will certainly not be easy and it is already late, Lowe decided to rest for a night before continuing on his journey.

Originally, since they were in their father's territory, food and accommodation would definitely not be a problem. However, as a traveling trainer, Lowe decided to follow the standards of travel as much as possible.

Well, if we follow the basic standards of trainers on the journey of this world, this is when the so-called "Pokémon Center" naturally comes into play.

As the largest welfare organization in the entire Pokémon world, the Pokémon Center is affiliated with the Pokémon League and aims to provide all possible help to every registered trainer.

Any Pokémon Trainer registered with the League can use Pokémon treatment and recuperation services at the Pokémon Center for free.

In addition, the Pokémon Center also provides standard food and accommodation at very low prices, almost at cost. All of this is naturally subsidized by the Alliance. After all, in this world with Pokémon and extremely developed productivity, such benefits do not seem particularly outrageous.

With the power of Pokémon, the weather in a small area can be controlled. Grass-type Pokémon have the "lush" characteristic and "growth" skills that accelerate the growth of plants. A series of activities such as sowing, picking and harvesting are all handled by dedicated bug-type Pokémon.

Therefore, farming in this world is very easy, the productivity is incredibly strong, and all kinds of basic public facilities are almost free to use.

After all, this world even relies on Pokémon to generate electricity, highlighting its pollution-free and pure natural nature, and its efficiency is quite amazing. In such a world, even energy is almost free.

I am afraid that only natural laws such as birth, aging, sickness and death are things that human beings in this world cannot change. Most other contradictions can be resolved by relying on strong productivity.

As for birth, aging, sickness and death, they are natural laws that cannot be solved by human power. However, this is not necessarily the case, because in this world... there are magical beings like "Legendary Pokémon".

It is said that these Pokémon themselves are the embodiment of natural laws, and are beings that can shake the underlying logic of the world. In other words, if placed in other worldviews, the so-called "Legendary Pokémon" is "God"...

As long as you have the power of God, you are not unable to shake the laws of nature. Therefore, almost 90% of the conspiracies and actions of various villain organizations in this world are aimed at "Legendary Pokémon".

After all, in a world where there is no shortage of material things and food, clothing and daily necessities are guaranteed, the only thing that can make people feel "unsatisfied" is the natural law of birth, aging, sickness and death.

After ensuring all material needs, humans will attempt to meddle with the laws of nature and try to change everything that is not going their way to suit their own wishes.

Even in a utopian world, the emergence of such people cannot be avoided. In this regard, Lowe could only spread his hands and say that there was nothing he could do.

Anyway, these have nothing to do with Lowe now. He is just a trainer who has just embarked on his journey.

After arriving at the Pokémon Center and confirming the registration information, Lowe also met Miss Joy, who was famous in the Pokémon world.

As members of the Joy Family, one of the two largest families in the Pokémon world (Gunza and Joy), almost all Pokémon Centers are operated by the Joy Misses.

Anyway, apart from their clothes and skin color, Lowe couldn't tell the difference between the Miss Joys from any appearance, but it seemed that Miss Joy's followers could accurately distinguish each Miss Joy.

When this gentle pink-haired nurse saw the New Leaf Cat hanging on Lowe and Lalulas following closely behind Lowe, carefully sticking half of his head out, she immediately covered her mouth and chuckled.

"...It seems that your Pokémon likes you very much. You will definitely become an excellent trainer~"

As a famous nursing family in the Pokémon world, the Miss Joys naturally have a great love for Pokémon. Trainers who love Pokémon and treat Pokémon well are naturally respected by the Miss Joys.

As a professional nurse, her knowledge of Pokémon is probably only comparable to those Pokémon doctors. Miss Joy is naturally well aware that both Neoleaf and Ralts are very picky about trainers.

If you don't truly like Pokémon, it's impossible to win their favor. Therefore, the fact that Lowe is liked and trusted by Meowth and Ralts is enough to prove that Lowe is a trainer who loves and treats Pokémon well.

Miss Joy liked anyone who loved Pokémon. After explaining her purpose, Miss Joy immediately and enthusiastically arranged food and accommodation for Lowe.

The food is standard, about the same size as common fast food, and the accommodation is also a standard single room with no private bathroom... There is only a bed and a table, which can almost only be used for resting and sleeping.

But for trainers who are traveling, this is more than enough. After all, if you want to enjoy life, you don’t have to travel and just stay at home.

Anyway, with the welfare in this world, as long as ordinary people are willing to work honestly, they will definitely be able to live a comfortable life.

Trainers go out traveling to challenge themselves. If they really can't take it, sleeping in the open air is common. Having a place to shelter from the wind and rain is already great, so why do they need a bicycle?

At night, Lowe lay down comfortably in the single room. Because the space was small, the Pokémon naturally had only the choice of either keeping it in the Poké Ball or sleeping with the trainer. Anyway, there was definitely no second bed prepared for the Pokémon here.

Naturally, Lowe had no objection to this. Ever since he became good friends with Xinye Cat during that trip to the back mountain when he was six years old, he has been sleeping with Xinye Cat. On the contrary, he is not used to being separated from them.

The main reason is that the soft body and furry touch of the New Leaf Cat are so great that it is a very convenient large pillow. In addition, the floral fragrance that lingers on the New Leaf Cat at any time and anywhere can create different effects according to the needs of the occasion.

For example, at night, it can release a calming and sleep-inducing vanilla scent, allowing people to have a good and peaceful sleep.

However, the situation today is a little different because there is a new partner this time.

Lalulas stood by the bed, looking at Lowe on the bed with some hesitation, and the new leaf cat who had already jumped into Lowe's arms and found a good position.

New Leaf Cat yawned leisurely, tidied up its fur with its small paws, and then nestled comfortably in Lowe's arms.

And Lowe smiled and held out his hand to Lalulas...

"Don't worry, I sleep well and I won't kick you out of bed in the middle of the night. Come on~"

Seeing this, Lalulas also carefully stretched out her little hand and placed it on Lowe's outstretched palm...

Chapter 25 Honorary Member of Cloud Pet Association

Lalulas stretched out her little hand and placed it in Lowe's palm. It was soft and slender, and the touch was just as tender as a baby's, completely different from New Leaf Cat.

New Leaf Cat's body is covered with soft hair, and she pays great attention to the maintenance of her hair. Lowe also brushes her hair every day. Her fur can be said to be shiny and smooth, which cannot be compared with the finest silk satin.

But Lalulas's little hands are closer to the touch of human skin, but much more delicate, and so small that it seems like there is no bone support at all. The slender little hands are slippery and soft in the hands, which is quite wonderful.

At the moment of physical contact, the horns on Lalu Las's head also emitted a faint light. Lalu Las can sense the emotions of the surrounding creatures through its horns. At the same time, it can also transmit its own emotions to other creatures through its horns in a way similar to telepathy.

This incredible ability is, in a sense, close to the telepathy of mythical Pokémon and legendary Pokémon, except that the latter's telepathy is stronger and can almost achieve smooth language communication with humans without any obstacles.

In comparison, the telepathy released by Lalulas could only convey a vague idea, which was roughly enough to understand what she wanted to say.

But it doesn't matter. This is enough anyway. After all, Xinye Miao can't speak a word, and it doesn't prevent Lowe from clearly reading the meaning of her every action.

As long as they spend enough time together, the trainer will be able to accurately read the Pokémon's thoughts and ideas. This is a basic skill that is essential for a trainer.

As for this relationship...

"...Of course we'll eat and sleep together, come on~"

Lowe's eyes lit up. Although he already had a new cat, he had been petting it for six years after all... He couldn't say that he was tired of it, but he definitely wanted to change the taste occasionally.

I have traveled to the world of Pokémon, but if I can't hug Pokémons and play with them to my heart's content, then it would be a waste of time, right? (shock)!

Before traveling through time, Luo Wei was an honorary member of the Cloud Pet Association. He often lingered on various video platforms. No matter whether the pets were ordinary or extraordinary, with fur or scales, flying in the sky or swimming in the water, if I saw them...they were mine!

Unfortunately, I was too busy with work in my previous life, so I could only raise pets online. I didn’t have any actual experience with them, so I could only buy two plush dolls to play with.

When I went to buy it, the saleslady introduced it enthusiastically, saying, "This kind of large doll is very popular among girls. It's really thoughtful to give it to your girlfriend as a gift."

...Facing the salesgirl who was probably just using sales tactics, Lowe was too embarrassed to say that he bought this thing for himself.

Single guys go out to buy themselves some comfort, but get hit twice. This is just the reality of life.

But now it’s different. Not only can I masturbate the real thing, but I can also hug it left and right. I can masturbate anything that flies in the sky, swims in the water, and even grows on the ground. If I don’t masturbate to my heart’s content, how can I justify my previous life of being a social animal who worked like a slave until I died suddenly... and I didn’t even have time to enjoy my life?

Thinking of this, Lowe stretched out his hand and picked up Lalulas by the waist. Lalulas had already understood Lowe's intention through telepathy.

Lalulas could only feel the deep affection, so he naturally did not reject Lowe's action, but the little guy seemed a little shy about such close contact.

But Lowe didn't care. After all, the performance of the New Leaf Cat was much more intense than that of Lalu Las. During that period, Lowe went out every day with a bird's nest hair.

In comparison, Lalulas is just a little shy, so how can that stop Lowe from generating electricity?

Xinye Miao, who was originally preparing to go to sleep, suddenly found that there seemed to be one more thing beside him. When he opened his eyes, he saw Lowe hugging two people in each hand, and the little guy immediately became dissatisfied.

She deliberately arched her body towards Lowe's arms, as if trying to squeeze out Lalulas's place. Her furry little head stirred restlessly. Although separated by a shirt, the touch of her delicate fur still reached Lowe's chest, making him feel itchy.

"Haha, stop it... Go to sleep. We still have to travel tomorrow."

Lowe bent down and gently kissed the little guy on the forehead. The little guy, who had just been quite dissatisfied, then calmed down.

Seeing this, Lalulas on the side seemed to be tempted, but the little guy did nothing in the end.

While Lowe was holding New Leaf Cat and Lalulas, his mind was already racing.

It's bad. This guy only has two hands. Now at least he can masturbate one with each hand. What if there are more in the future? He doesn't have three heads and six arms. He can only suck two at a time.

Does this mean that we have to make a choice?

Just thinking about it, Lowe immediately felt a strong sense of distress. Absolutely not. This is such a small matter. I will make up for it with my momentum later!

Perhaps because he had been busy all day, and after a lot of random thoughts in his head, Lowe closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep.

Xinye Miao rubbed Lowe's chest familiarly, and after adjusting his position, he soon fell asleep comfortably.

Only Lalulas seemed to feel very surprised about the current situation.

Before that, as a wild Pokémon, she had to live in the open air. Of course, from the perspective of the Pokémon ecosystem, this would not be considered a big problem.

The Pokémon populations in the wild fully demonstrate that no matter how harsh the external conditions are, wild creatures can survive tenaciously.

However, there is definitely a gap between surviving and living well, otherwise so many species would not become extinct every year. Although new species of Pokémon are discovered every year, many ordinary species are also found to be facing population crises.

This situation is also reflected in Pokémon. Many wild Pokémon live in poor conditions. For this reason, a special relief center for wild Pokémon was established.

The best among them is an organization called "Ether Foundation"...

All in all, the life of wild Pokémon is bound to be not smooth sailing, and they face various survival competition crises in the wild at any time and anywhere.

Lalulas has the ability to sense the emotions of creatures around her, so she can protect herself very well. In most cases, she can sense danger in advance and avoid it.

But because of this, she rarely gets a good night's sleep. Of course, Psychic-type Pokémon are born with strong mental powers and can restore their physical strength through meditation, so they don't need too much sleep.

After all, in the wild where dangers abound, falling asleep without any precautions is almost like seeking death.

But, something seems to be different today?

Lowe exudes a reassuring warmth, and the New Leaf Cat releases a light vanilla scent, which makes people feel peaceful.

Surrounded by this warm atmosphere, Lalulas slowly fell into the best sleep since birth...

Chapter 26 Orange Forest

This may be the most peaceful sleep that Lalulas has had since she was born.

There is no need to worry about whether there will be a crisis, and there is no need to divide most of your energy to pay attention to your surroundings. In addition, as a trainer, Lowe exudes a reassuring aura.
