Chapter 120: Joey
Hearing this, Lei Wen glanced at his territory panel.
With the arrival of this group of people, the number of citizens above also changed.
The human citizens increased from 299 to 1151 people.
The Pokémon citizens increased from 123 to 273.
With a slight thought, Lei Wen immediately opened the detailed panel for the Pokémon citizens to check which Pokémon were in the new group.
Tepig, Watchog, Electabuzz, Drilbur, Flareon, Sandshrew, Lickilicky, Machop, Machoke, Garbodor…
The types were numerous and mixed, and just by looking, Lei Wen felt a bit dazzled.
“There’s even Tepig, the Fire-type starter from the Unova Region…” Lei Wen couldn’t help but be a little surprised.
But from the human perspective of this era, Tepig was just a pig monster that could breathe fire, at most usable for starting a fire to cook food.
The addition of so many slave Pokémon was indeed a problem.
Lei Wen fell into thought.
Pokémon like Machop and Machoke were fine, they could be hired to help with work in the territory, but Pokémon like Lickilicky and Seviper were not very useful at the moment.
Moreover, as far as Lei Wen knew, not all Pokémon liked living with humans; some would still prefer to stay in the wild.
In that case, a wild nature reserve could be established around the territory for those Pokémon who did not wish to stay in the town.
As for the food and seeds from the Old King, they provided great help. With more types of crop seeds, the variety of food they could eat would also be richer.
Besides these, Lei Wen also noticed that there were still quite a few technical talents among this group of people.
Such as miners, blacksmiths, carpenters, scholars, etc., these people could also play a very significant role.
After pondering for a moment, Lei Wen nodded and said, “I understand. You must be tired from the long journey, Elif. Arrange for them to rest, and we’ll discuss the rest tomorrow.”
“Yes!” Elif nodded.
“Also, convey to Geralt that the newly arrived knights will be under his charge,” Lei Wen added.
“Understood, Prince Lei Wen.”
Elif responded, then turned to Lorraine and said, “Please follow me!”
Lorraine nodded and followed him out of the City Hall.
Victini had just finished its small cookie and was contentedly patting its full belly, looking very happy.
Lei Wen looked at this scene, and at the same time, the detailed information about Victini appeared in his mind.
【 Pokémon: Victini
【 Type: Psychic, Fire
【 Gender: Genderless
【 Ability: Victory Star
【 Moves: Telekinesis, Quick Attack, Focus Energy, Fire Blast, Ember, Endure, Headbutt, Flame Charge, Reversal, Unknown Move, Psycho Cut, Inferno, Power Split, Flamethrower, Psychic, V-create
【 Friendship: 90
【 Pokédex Entry: None.
“Hiss!” Looking at Victini’s panel, Lei Wen couldn’t help but gasp, “What a luxurious move set!”
However, this also meant that this Victini was very strong.
“Nini…”
After eating his fill, Victini couldn’t help but yawn.
It had traveled a long distance and had hardly rested properly. Now that it had suddenly relaxed, it felt a strong wave of fatigue wash over it.
Lei Wen naturally understood this.
He said with some concern, “If you’re tired, you can sleep here for a while! When I’m done, I’ll take you home.”
“Nini~”
Victini yawned, then landed on the cushion next to Lei Wen’s desk, rested its head on its arms, and slowly closed its eyes.
That cushion was originally prepared by Lei Wen for Dratini, but after Dratini evolved into Dragonair, it grew too large and became somewhat unusable.
Lei Wen watched Victini fall asleep, then opened the citizen panel to check the status of this group of human citizens.
It’s just that the Unova Region seems to be based on America, which causes most of the names here to be exotic foreign names.
At a glance, what met his eyes were various “Jenny,” “Jason,” “Frank,” which dazzled Lei Wen.
And at this moment, Lei Wen suddenly saw two familiar names among the large list of names.
Qiao Yilin and Qiao Yichun.
Qiao…
Lei Wen was slightly taken aback. Was it the Qiao he knew?
【 Commoner Name: Qiao Yichun
【 Age: 17
【 Occupation: None
【 Special Ability: None
【 Loyalty: 0
【 Life Experience: In Kingdom Calendar Year 132, Qiao Yichun was born along with her older sister Qiao Yilin.
【 In Kingdom Calendar Year 143, the sisters were considered cursed and inauspicious by villagers because they looked exactly like their mother, and were thus driven out of the village.
【 In Kingdom Calendar Year 148, Qiao Yichun and her sister drifted to Aindook and were sent to prison for stealing bread.
【 In Kingdom Calendar Year 149, they were taken as slaves and joined a large group heading to Third Prince Lei Wen’s territory.
These are… the Joey Sisters?
Lei Wen had been somewhat doubtful at first, but upon seeing their identical appearances, he immediately confirmed that these two Joys were the nurses from the Pokémon Center in the anime!
The Joey family is famous for everyone looking the same and being difficult to distinguish.
It’s just that in this era, people seem to have some misunderstanding about Joys?
Inauspicious person, cursed person…
Lei Wen couldn’t help but fall into thought.
Perhaps he could establish a “Pokémon Center” and have these two Joys work there?
“No, not yet.”
Although their surname was Qiao, they did not possess the skills to treat Pokémon like the Joys in the anime.
Oh well, he’d better interact with the sisters first!
If they were good people, Lei Wen planned to have them study medicine with Lila and then take up positions at the Pokémon Center.
This way, if more Trainers arrived in the territory in the future, there would be no shortage of places to treat Pokémon.
With this thought, Lei Wen stood up and walked to the window, looking out at the street through the gaps in the blinds.
Geralt, Elif, and others began to arrange accommodations for the new people and Pokémon who had joined the territory.
Human figures could be seen everywhere in the town. The arrival of these people injected unprecedented vitality into this territory, and the entire town became incredibly lively.
There were still many things waiting for Lei Wen to do, but for now, he decided to put aside his work and take Victini home.
Victini seemed extremely tired. When Lei Wen picked it up from the cushion, it didn’t wake up and was still fast asleep.
Lei Wen took Victini back to his residence.
Pushing open the door, when Dragonair and Volcarona saw the figure in Lei Wen’s arms, they immediately gathered around, looking at Victini sleeping soundly on the bed.
“Wuu?”
“This is Victini. Dragonair, you should have met it before.” Lei Wen said.
Upon hearing Lei Wen’s words, Dragonair immediately recalled that it had seen Victini in the Royal City when it was still a Dratini.
“Victini came from very far away to help us,” Lei Wen said softly to his Pokémon. “You should get along well with it.”
