It carefully took an envelope and a pen from its satchel with its paw. "Woo woo~" (Please just answer the question above.)
Lin Feng, somewhat confused, took the envelope.
Upon opening it, he found only a blank piece of paper inside. Printed clearly on the paper were the words.
"What do you think is the meaning of Pokémon's existence?"
That was the question.
At the very instant he opened the envelope, an extremely faint psychic power fell upon him.
Lin Feng was startled but didn't panic.
His True New Body Physique gave him confidence when facing any Pokémon.
After sensing it, Lin Feng grew even more curious. This psychic power had no harmful intent.
Its only function was to record his current location.
Coupled with the strange question and the familiar feeling from this strange Dragonite.
A thought suddenly appeared in his mind...
Could this be... a test from that artificial Legendary Pokémon towards humans?
Then, he had to answer this question carefully...
Looking at the paper in his hand, Lin Feng fell into deep thought.
Chapter 31 Mewtwo's Satisfied Reply, Golden Aptitude
"The meaning of Pokémon's existence..."
Lin Feng held the pen in his hand, thought for a moment, and finally wrote, "Existence itself is its own meaning. No creature has the right to question or evaluate the meaning of another creature's existence, and that includes you."
He carefully placed the paper back into the envelope, sealed it, and then took out a large bag of Stamina Energy Cubes from his Storage Ball. He handed it over under the Dragonite's bewildered gaze.
"You've had a long journey, and it must have been tiring to deliver this. Please relay a message to the owner of the envelope for me. Consider it a form of communication."
Lin Feng recalled Mewtwo's image in his mind and said slowly, "When you've experienced enough hardship and war, you'll feel like the world is full of nothing but hardship and war.
But you should consider, is what you've experienced the entirety of this world? The world is vast. If you have the chance, go out and explore more. Experience ordinary life. Only then will you understand the full scope of this world."
"Woo?"
Taking the bag of Energy Cubes, the Dragonite tried one and ate it.
Its eyes immediately lit up.
[Congratulations to the host for increasing the Dragonite's Joy Value from 40% to 60%. Reward: Three bags of Advanced Golden Fertilizer, one Advanced Rare Candy, and one Advanced Special Scale Fruit (consuming this can significantly boost a Pokémon's Special Attack and Speed).]
"Hmm?"
Hearing the System's voice this time, Lin Feng raised an eyebrow.
The increase in Joy Value wasn't that high this time.
But the rewards truly surprised him.
Does the higher the strength of the Pokémon that increases Joy Value, the richer the rewards?
Lin Feng felt he had discovered another characteristic of the System.
"Woo~"
Grabbing a handful of Energy Cubes and stuffing them into its mouth, the Dragonite's mouth curved upwards. It nodded repeatedly, then, with the envelope, spread its wings and soared into the sky.
In the blink of an eye, it was gone.
Lin Feng looked at its speed with great envy.
When would he be able to capture a Flying-type Pokémon...
Afterward, he wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Phew... just a false alarm."
He didn't bother summoning his Servine and instead hurried home under the cover of night...
At this moment, In the Kanto League region.
On a remote, isolated island.
Inside a castle-like structure.
A pink, humanoid Pokémon was looking at the letter in its hand.
"The meaning of Pokémon's existence?"
: Battling? Companionship, helping me become a very strong Trainer?
"Of course, it's battling! I really enjoy the passion and excitement during Pokémon battles!"
"I simply love Pokémon, so I want them to be by my side."
"Dragonite is so big! Can you make Dragonite my Pokémon?"
Looking at these disorganized answers, Mewtwo's gaze gradually turned cold.
Among all the letters it had received, the majority of the answers regarding the meaning of Pokémon's existence revolved around "battling."
This was no different from the mindset it had learned from Team Rocket.
So...
War, plunder... Is this the meaning of Pokémon's existence?
Or perhaps, this is the value humans assign to Pokémon's existence...
Anger brewed within Mewtwo's heart.
Intense psychic power erupted within the castle, causing the entire island to tremble slightly. The sky turned as dark as ink, stirring the surrounding waves and instilling a sense of dread.
"So, I was created for war and plunder? Is that it? Fine... then I'll stir up..."
"Wooo~!"
Just then, a Dragonite flew in with a satchel, carrying a bag in its other hand.
It was the Energy Cube that Lin Feng had given it. There was one last piece inside, and it was reluctant to eat it.
"Is this a new batch of letters?"
Mewtwo forcefully suppressed its anger and used telekinesis to take the satchel from Dragonite's hand. It then began to sort the envelopes inside, intending to examine them.
However, it noticed Dragonite holding a bag, looking into it with a hint of reluctance.
"What is it? Let me see."
"Wooo?"
Dragonite quickly tried to hide the bag behind its back, but its arms were too short, making it impossible to conceal.
"Hmm?"
This action, however, only made Mewtwo more suspicious.
It directly used its psychic power to take the bag.
Dragonite: "! Wooo!"
It wanted to resist, but then it thought about the scene it had just witnessed outside.
After considering it, it decided against it. It had already eaten so much.
It wasn't worth getting beaten up for a single bite of food.
"An Energy Cube?"
Looking at the contents of the bag, Mewtwo's brow furrowed.
Why hide an Energy Cube so carefully?
The Energy Cube slowly floated up, and Mewtwo, unafraid of poison, took a gentle bite.
As soon as it chewed, its eyes immediately lit up. "Hmm?"
Its state of mind subtly changed, and its anger subsided.
After swallowing the rest of the Energy Cube in one gulp, Mewtwo casually asked, "Where did this Energy Cube come from?"
"Wuwu..."
Dragonite, enduring the humiliation, pointed its claw towards a particular envelope among the mail.
Mewtwo picked up the envelope with its hand.
Upon first glance, it was stunned, and then its expression became solemn. The envelope clearly contained only one sentence.
It usually took a glance to finish reading, but this letter made it stare for several minutes, and finally, a hint of satisfaction and relief appeared on its face.
It said with great emotion, "After so long, I've finally received a satisfactory answer..."
Dragonite beside it was taken aback. It knew that this very powerful Pokémon had been searching for the answer to a question. For this purpose, it had rescued most of the Pokémon imprisoned within Team Rocket and brought them to this small island to deliver letters for it.
It was all to find this answer in the human world.
It had searched for a long time, sending letters to many humans, but had never received a satisfactory answer.
Now...
Had it finally found it?
Dragonite hesitated for a moment before finally relaying the words Lin Feng had said.
