Ralts Turns Gamer Girl

Mingyou carried Ralts inside. After greeting Riolu and the others, he fetched his medical kit from beside the bookshelf.

He treated Ralts's wound with a Potion, bandaged it, then laid Ralts on the sofa.

"All done!"

"Wumu~"

Ogerpon came over curiously. She gently lifted the unconscious Ralts's hair to peek underneath.

"Don't mess with Ralts. Let her rest."

"Wumu~"

"Come on, then."

Mingyou scooped Ogerpon into his arms. "Help us decorate the Christmas tree and put up the other decorations later, okay?"

"Wumu~"

"Oh, have you decided what you want for Christmas?"

"Wumu..."

Not yet...

"That's okay. No rush."

Mingyou stroked her head and glanced at Latias and the Munchlax sharing chocolate nearby. He already knew what presents they wanted and had ordered them online yesterday.

That left only Ogerpon, so he was eager to find out what she wanted.

Akari came in through the back door after greeting Ursaluna. Smiling, she unbuttoned her coat and took off her knit hat.

"It's so much warmer in here... Is everyone huddled up for a nap?"

She spotted several Teddiursa sleeping on a blanket and wanted to pet them, but worried she might wake them.

Hearing her voice, Mingyou walked over with a smile. "How did it go?"

"Ursaluna's fur feels wonderful~"

"Huh?"

"I mean... Ursaluna felt really friendly. We got along well."

"Glad to hear it. Your room's upstairs, and I've put your luggage there. I clean regularly, so the house is tidy, but I haven't made your bed yet. Want me to help?"

"I can do that myself later. How's Ralts? Still unconscious?"

"She's all right. She just needs rest."

"Okay. I'll let my Pokémon out, then we can make dinner together. Just watching you take care of so many Pokémon wears me out."

She took out two Poké Balls.
