Pokémon, but cultural invasion.

The warm Pokémon coins have turned into cold handheld console data.

The reason he didn't reach the highest level LV10 in one go is because his reach wasn't high enough.

Quanshu didn't expect that the popularity of "Night at the Museum" wouldn't be enough to help him reach the maximum level.

The good news is that the film's reach is still growing, and it is expected to see a small surge when the online version is released.

After thinking for a moment, Quanshu called Xiaoxia back.

"beep--"

"Hey, could you please tell me again about the Red Lotus Island wildfire?"

According to Sister Xia's intelligence, the alliance investigated the scene of the fire and found it to be an illegal research institution.

The organization's leader is Dr. Fuji, but he has now disappeared, and the Alliance is searching for his whereabouts.

The mysterious elf witnessed by onlookers is also within the Alliance's investigation scope and has been listed as a key target for prevention.

The background of this organization and its funders are still under investigation.

Dr. Fuji?

As Izumi pondered the name, it seemed there really was a theatrical version involved.

In the movie, after Mewtwo went berserk and destroyed Niijima's laboratory, Dr. Fuji disappeared.

If their fate is unknown, then they are dead.

The league will most likely come up empty-handed, but if they can catch him, it might actually uncover a whole host of things related to the Rockets.

Quanshu felt that his luck was not good today, so he found a small alley nearby to log off and avoid trouble.

When he logged in the next day, he thought he would go to Cerulean City to discuss the new game with Xia Jie.

Unexpectedly, when I opened my eyes, there was a Thunderous Super Dream standing at the entrance of the alley.

"Instant teleportation, that's well used."

Quanshu's face stiffened.

What to do if the BOSS blocks the door at the spawn point?

Urgent, waiting online.

Chapter 87 Want to play games? The kind that ends a friendship.

Dream, so you didn't leave after all~

Izumi stood frozen in place, never expecting to run into Mewtwo again in Celadon City today, especially right after logging into the game.

Logically speaking, there was no reason for Him to stay in Yuhong City.

Could it be that Mewtwo didn't leave yesterday, but simply disappeared from his sight?

If that's the case, his act of logging off in a secluded alley would probably seem quite ridiculous to Mewtwo hiding in the shadows.

However, regardless of the truth, Izumi-ki could not explain what had just happened—

He appeared out of nowhere in an alley in Celadon City, without any Psychic-type Pokémon by his side.

Past experience has taught Izumi that when you can't explain something, the best thing to do is to ignore it.

So he remained calm and greeted them, "What a coincidence, we meet again."

Mewtwo glanced at him indifferently, not dwelling on the "teleportation" issue.

“After I left yesterday, I reflected on things. There are still so many things about your human world that I cannot understand.”

"If we continue to observe and think from the perspective of a detached observer, we will still arrive at wrong conclusions."

For example, in that movie, if no one tells him the truth, he would be completely deceived by the emotions of the audience and believe that it really happened.

"So I need a guide, or an interpreter, to help me understand the human world, just like Larry's daytime job at the end of the movie."

He opened his palm, holding a piece of gold the size of a tennis ball on his three ball-shaped fingers: "You humans all like to use this as a reward, don't you?"

The dazzling golden light was blinding, but Izumi's attention was not on the gold at all.

The size of the gold is meaningless to him; the key is Mewtwo's attitude.

Mewtwo, who harbors hatred for humans and believes that weak humans are unworthy of ruling the world and wants to take their place, is actually actively learning about human society.

This contradicted common sense, but after a moment's thought, Quanshu quickly understood the reason.

The fact that Mewtwo could believe Giovanni's nonsense and form a cooperative relationship with him suggests that Mewtwo's initial attitude towards humans was at least not one of resistance.

The real reason Mewtwo developed hatred for humans was because Giovanni used it to do a lot of dirty and tiring work for Team Rocket.

Catching large numbers of wild Pokémon, attacking other trainers' Pokémon, destroying target facilities...

Mewtwo harbors great malice towards humanity because it witnessed the dark side of the human world and discovered that Giovanni's promise was just a lie.

But now... the world line has changed.

As Izumi Tree observed Him, Mewtwo's feelings toward humanity and His Creator must have been quite complex.

Since Mewtwo has the desire to understand humans, he has no reason to refuse.

This is a good thing for both him and the residents of Kanto.

However, before accepting, Izumi had one more question.

"why me?"

He suspected that it was Ji Ge who exerted his power, or it could be for some other reason.

Having a direction is always better than being completely clueless.

"Because you're more pleasing to the eye, tsk—"

Mewtwo put the gold back under his cloak and said, "If you don't want to, then forget it."

Humans are creatures that you can easily catch two or three by throwing a stone into the grass, or even more by grabbing a handful.

"No, I'd be happy to be your guide in the human world."

Having figured out what the other party was thinking, Izumi no longer felt afraid of the so-called monster without a "heart".

He stepped forward and said, “Explaining the concept of the human world is too broad. Let’s start with my daily work.”

"I'll tell you how I spend my day, so you can have a basic understanding of human social rules and operating logic, okay?"

Mewtwo frowned, puzzled by the sudden change in the human before him.

The cautiousness I felt had faded, replaced by an overwhelming sense of excitement at the prospect of making a profit.

"You're the one who introduced us, so you get to decide."

Mewtwo caught up with the humans.

Within minutes, they stood in front of a magnificent building.

"Yuhong Game City is one of my usual workplaces."

As Izumi walked inside, he introduced himself: "My name is Izumi, and I am a game developer and film director."

"Games are a form of entertainment that can bring joy to both humans and Pokémon."

"As a game developer, my dream is to make people all over the world and Pokémon smile."

Rotom, who was floating beside him, suddenly covered his screen with his two controllers.

Unlike arrogant trainers, it has a sense of shame.

Mewtwo followed him into the console area, where everyone was glued to their screens, oblivious to the outside world.

Various colored lights flashed on the screen, some showing a colorful farm, some a meadow with special effects flying everywhere, and some a snow-covered cliff.

Quanshu spoke eloquently: "People get enjoyment from games. The vast majority of players you see now are playing games produced by our studio."

Mewtwo kept shifting its gaze; it was observing and thinking.

While most human emotions are indeed pleasant and relaxed, a very small minority clench their fists in front of their computers, overwhelmed by anger and frustration.

The speaker's views are for reference only; they have their own understanding.

Quanshu found an empty seat and sat down.

Mewtwo, draped in a cloak, should have been conspicuous following behind him, but no one paid him any attention.

I have no idea what move the opponent used.

"Ibu, I'm going to the toilet."

A player next to him hurriedly got up and instructed his partner, "Click this fishing button for me. If a fish bites, just reel it in. I'll be right back."

The chibi version of Ditto on the screen is sitting by the river fishing.

Eevee jumped onto the table with considerable skill, using its paws to move the mouse and its tail to control the keyboard.

He's obviously a veteran.

Pokémon have an average IQ higher than that of seven- or eight-year-old children, and some simple games are not difficult for them.

So Izumi discovered it shortly after the game development began.

His game players are not all human; there are also cases where female trainers pay the price for their playful partners.

Quanshu clicked on the desktop and created a blank folder.

"After I started making the game, I kept thinking, what if trainers become too engrossed in the game and neglect their Pokémon?"

Is there a way to play where both sides can enjoy the game?

He said with dramatic intonation, "Actually, it does exist. Please watch the video—"

A demo video about a gamepad product begins to play on the screen.

"I commissioned the manufacturer to develop a new type of controller that can support two to seven players to play the game at the same time."

"Games should be played by both trainers and Pokémon; only then can a system be considered complete."

Izumi said with conviction, "I hope that trainers and Pokémon can forge deep bonds and create brilliant emotions in my next game."

Mewtwo got goosebumps all over.

What is this human saying?

Chapter 88: Tell me if we can deepen our bond.

Mewtwo's gaze swept around the screens before finally settling on Izumi's face.

Do you think you can forge a bond between humans and Pokémon simply by exchanging electrical currents on a screen?

He didn't think it was possible to do that.

But through telepathy, I know that's exactly what the other person is thinking.

"Someone once told me that bonds are not something ethereal; they are the time you spend with your Pokémon, no matter what the background of those days may be."

Izumi said confidently, "I knew then that it was possible to strengthen the bond between humans and Pokémon through games."

"As long as there is a multiplayer game that requires excellent teamwork, trainers and Pokémon can participate."

"Facing difficult challenges together, overcoming obstacles with ingenious strategies and unparalleled teamwork, and then embracing each other to celebrate after victory—it's hard to imagine that the bond wouldn't deepen!"

What happens if you fail to complete the level?

In short, don't ask, and if you do, don't care.

Trainers and Pokémon will complete the game on their own.

"Trainers and their Pokémon will hone their teamwork through repeated challenges, and the cooperation between Pokémon will also be cultivated."

Quanshu opened the schematic diagram of the digital alloy he had sent.

The simple line drawing depicts a rectangular room with a small person and several ugly Pokémon; some are carrying plates, some are washing dishes, and some are chopping vegetables...

The division of labor was orderly and well-organized.

"The power boost from two Pokémon working together in a double battle is not as simple as one plus one."

"In my vision, this game will bring the whole team together and be the perfect choice for everyone to have fun together in their spare time."
