Pokemon: These Players are too annoying!

Cuckmaster6969: YOYOYO! It's your guy here, do you remember me? If you do, give me a kiss on the cheek, I'll always love those who actually do that.

Cuckmaster6969: And today marks the 3rd day since the game was released, thanks to Arceus Company for bringing us all together!

Cuckmaster6969: So I have a reward. If anyone wants it, just take a picture of your feet, because leg hair is a beautiful memory.

Cuckmaster6969: Oh, armpit hair works too, but I prefer leg hair.

Fairygothgirl: Have you been texting alone at 3 a.m.?

Cuckmaster6969: WHAT?! NO! I'm not lonely! I'm just giving an early announcement. By the way, do you want the reward? Just take a picture of your feet!

Bigantiyellowhair: Just ignore him, @Fairygothgirl, he's gone crazy.

Farmerlily: How do you know that?

Bigantiyellowhair: He spammed my messages at 4 a.m.

Oceanlover: I thought the group leader was just a funny guy, but I didn't expect him to be so gross, sending me a video of how to cook fish.

Birdup: What's so gross about cooking fish??

Oceanlover: It is gross! I can't accept anyone hurting sea creatures! They have lives too!

Birdup: ...so what about creatures that don't live in the sea?

Oceanlover: They make delicious meals.

Bob: At least my brother sends me pictures of girls! Even though it only showed the neck, the fair skin was so beautiful that it made me really curious. Is that your sister, @Cuckmaster6969?

Cuckmaster6969: Oh, that's actually my neck, and thanks for the picture of your leg hair.

Bob has left the group.

Bigantiyellowhair: You're really terrible.

Cuckmaster6969: It's because you guys won't send me pictures of your leg hair.

Bigantiyellowhair: So, why do you need it?

Cuckmaster6969: To complain about the disgusting restaurant I ate at yesterday! When I went there, the food they served had hair in it! So gross!

Bigantiyellowhair: ...so what's the reward?

Cuckmaster6969: A stone.

Bigantiyellowhair: ...a stone?

Cuckmaster6969: Yeah, it's round and looks like the ones kids used to collect and play with, good old days...

Fairygothgirl: I thought you were a pervert who wanted to see other people's feet, but it turns out you're just really dumb and only care about leg hair.

Cuckmaster6969: At least I'm not obsessed with girls. I know what I'm doing.

"...really?" Lily, currently dressed in an idol costume, looked at the messages with a confused expression.

Bigantiyellowhair: So, did Bob receive your REWARD?

Cuckmaster6969: He refused, saying that the picture of the neck was a much better reward.

Farmerlily: Poor guy.

Rey looked at the messages for a moment before turn off.

He looked at the virtual reality headset, intending to put it on right away.

After all, Cyndaquil and Weedle were still waiting for him!

But playing alone is boring; he wanted to play and explore with friends instead...

Oh well, they're all busy anyway; not everyone can just take time off like Lukas.

He stood up, turned on his computer, and checked out the new games.

"Huh?"

The Pokémon game showed a red circle on the left side.

A red circle meant that there was a notification.

He clicked on the game to see the notification.

"Update? UPDATE??? UPDATE!!!"

He shouted excitedly and started reading the update notes.

It's only been 3 days, and the game already has an update; isn't that a bit fast??

But that's good! The faster the game updates with cool new stuff, the better!

The update notes read as follows:

- Gym Boss Update

- More new Pokémon added

- New special items added

- Shop update

- New antagonist added

- Bug fixes

"Quite a lot," Rey thought as he clicked to check out the Gym Boss update.

Gym Bosses are basically checkpoints to test if the players are strong enough; the Pokémon they call out will depend on your level and Pokémon.

New Pokémon? No surprise there, since the game is still in beta, it's not shocking if they add more Pokémon.

Items, on the other hand, are different. Depending on the item, it could unlock a hidden quest or a special piece of equipment for your Pokémon.

The shop update is great! Lately, they've been earning money but didn't know what to spend it on, making the money feel a bit redundant. Now, with the shop update, players can go and spend it.

And the new antagonist is someone who steals Pokémon.

After reading the entire update, Rey couldn't help but feel excited.

There's quite a bit here, especially the item section. If there's equipment for Pokémon, they can make weak Pokémon stronger! (Wrong, except for that Rattata.)

And the most special thing in this update...

The beta now allows more players!

From 5 players, it's now 10!

Not much...

Rey quickly grabbed his phone and texted everyone to let them know.

Bigantiyellowhair: @All, the game just got an update.

Cuckmaster6969: WHAT, FOR REAL?!

Bob: AWESOME, I WANT TO SEE IF THEY ADDED MORE FEMALE CHARACTERS!

Cuckmaster6969: When did you rejoin the group??

Bigantiyellowhair: Oh, and the game now allows 5 more players.

Oceanlover: @Birdup QUICK QUICK QUICK!!

Birdup: Damn it, why right when I'm about to take a bath?!

Fairygothgirl: I'm busy, I'll update later.

Farmerlily: Same here.

Cuckmaster6969: So, it's just us guys, then.

Bob: That's sad; I don't like being around Cuck.

Cuckmaster6969: That hurts my feelings!

Updating games made by Arceus Corporation is a bit different.

They have to connect their virtual reality (VR) headsets to their computers since VR headsets are essential.

Oceanlover and Birdup were lucky enough to register in time. A few hours later, their VR headsets were delivered to their doorstep.

They seem to have never played a game made by Arceus Corporation before, just like Lukas, who accidentally registered because he was bored.

After all, the game was free then why not click to register?

So, the group decided to play right away.

They didn't know that updates like this didn't actually change anything, because the "game" they were playing was, in fact, the real Pokémon world.

But that's a story for later, the most important thing is that 5 new players will join.

The locations where those 5 players will appear are three places: Pallet Town, Viridian City, and Pewter City—places Red has already visited.

And all these updates were automatically done by the system.

Since Red is the Admin, his only task is to manage the players.

After summoning 5 new players, the system went back to hibernation.

Red will undoubtedly face more problems caused by these new players...
