Pokemon: These Players are too annoying!

"Phew! That shower felt amazing!"

A young man with red hair stepped out of the bathroom, looking quite handsome. (That's the important part, i will say it again)

This is Lukas, a 22-year-old guy currently living in a cheap, rundown apartment.

He worked as a laborer, so his income wasn't much, but to him, it was enough.

Lukas picked up his phone and checked the messages from the group he had created.

Surprisingly, no one had left the group yet

In fact, a few more people had joined! Most of them were either interested in learning about the Pokémon game or waiting to play it.

Cuckmaster6969: Yo yo yo, happy holidays everyone! It's a shame we've never met, but I'm sending you all a passionate kiss with my sincere heart!

Fairygothgirl: No thanks.

Bob: I'd prefer your sister.

Cuckmaster6969: She's only in high school…

Bob: I can wait.

Cuckmaster6969: YOU SICK GROOMER! NO WAY I'M HANDING HER OVER TO YOU!

Farmerlily: Thanks for the wishes, but I'll pass.

Bigantiyellowhair: Same here.

Cuckmaster6969: You guys are so cold!

Oceanlover: @Cuckmaster6969, when is the game going to allow more players? I've been waiting forever!

Cuckmaster6969: Patience, rookie! When the studio announces it, they will.

Birdup: Awesome! I want to soar through the sky like a bird!

Bob: Pfft, bird… hehe.

Birdup: ?

Bob: Nothing, just… funny. (In my language, "bird" mean "Chim" and "Chim" other mean is Penis.)

Lukas was about to reply but his phone rang. He glared at the number before answering.

"What do you want, old man?"

"Is that how you address me, Lukas?"

"Not your business."

It was Lukas's father.

"I won't say this again, COME.HOME.NOW."

"No, I'm not coming back."

"If that's the case, don't blame me. I may not know where you are, but the servants do."

Lukas immediately hung up, not wanting to hear that bastard's voice anymore.

'Haven't he tortured me enough at home?' Lukas sighed, realizing he'd have to move again.

His background was significant—his father was the CEO of a large company and the head of a powerful family.

His father had married his German mother, and Lukas was their firstborn, making him the heir to his father's company.

This put enormous pressure on Lukas, and any deviation from his father's expectations resulted in punishment.

A typical Asian family.

Lukas sighed as he took off his tank top, revealing his six-pack abs.

He had developed a habit of working out to keep a fit body, which was essential for his current job.

He knew he wasn't the smartest, which was why he had given up on becoming the company's president.

After all, letting an idiot run the company would only turn him into a puppet for others to control.

'I'm not that crazy.'

He sighed again and grabbed his virtual reality headset, lying down on his bed as he put it on.

Lukas always slept shirtless because it was more comfortable, and besides, his sister used to be interested in seeing his body for some reason... who knows why?

But that was in the past. Although they still communicated occasionally over the phone, there was a certain distance between them now.

Lukas placed the virtual reality headset on his head and powered it up. His consciousness began to fade away...

***

"Oh shit, all the NPCs are gone."

Lukas stood alone, looking a bit lost.

He decided to head to the Pokémon Center to ask Nurse Joy which direction Red went.

After all, he had no idea where to go, and according to the mission storyline, it seems he has to beat all 8 gyms, right?

Whatever, I don't want to think too hard.

After asking Nurse Joy, he entered the forest.

And honestly, this forest is too dark!

"Totodile, come out!"

Totodile appeared, looking at Lukas.

Gah? (What's up?)

"I'm too scared to go alone, you go first!"

???

Totodile was confused, how would I know which way to go?!

But orders are orders, so he still went ahead.

Unfortunately, he took the wrong direction, so the path to Pewter City got even farther away.

But Lukas didn't know, and would never know.

Many Pokémon from Route 1 saw him and ran away in fear.

After all, among those who destroyed their homes, the craziest one was Lukas!

He and Totodile bit one Pokémon after another, making them think Lukas was some kind of crazy Pokémon disguised as a human!

A mad dog!

They even had to call for Ursaring, a big bully, for help, but Ursaring got its teeth broken by Lukas and fled.

Since when were humans this strong??

So Lukas was considered the boogeyman.

And Lukas didn't care at all, he might even use that nickname to show off to other players.

Lukas continued through the forest with Totodile, and the forest grew darker.

"Hey, are you sure you're going the right way?"

Gah gah! (I already told you I don't know which way to go!)

Lukas didn't understand what Totodile said, so he looked around.

Until he noticed an old house.

For some reason, just looking at that house made him smell treasure!

The One Piece treasure is right here!

One Piece is real!

That's what his instincts told him...

So Lukas picked up Totodile and ran towards that house, hoping to find some awesome treasure.
