Pokémon: Gardevoir Harem with Tag System

[S.S. Anne, In the Largest Room]

Cynthia stretched beautifully, tying a big bow on her Garchomp's head.





"You look so pretty in this style!"

"ROAR~", Garchomp looked up at the sky, a bit faintly sorrowful.

'Who understands this pain. Being the number one Garchomp in the world, yet being raised like a silly pet shark...'

"Hehe~", Cynthia let out a silver bell-like laugh, gently patting Garchomp's head, "It's not easy to come vacationing in Aurient, so don't be so tense. Anyway, those annoying people like Elite Four aren't here."

"ROAR~", Garchomp nodded helplessly and hid inside the nearby training room to begin daily training.

'Having a master like this is really worrisome.'

———

After calming Garchomp, Cynthia took a nice bath, changed into pajamas, lay on the bed, and opened her Rotom phone.

"Full charge, no work, just had a bath, this is the perfect time to play a round of games," She brushed her golden hair back and opened one of her favorite games, full of excitement.

"Rotom, help me cast the screen."

"Pokémon, activate!"

After selecting Garchomp, Cynthia decisively entered the game.

———

On the train, Axel ignored Caitlin like she was air, playing his game on his own.

If this girl had demanded a battle right away, he could've beaten her up and made her cry and beg for mercy.

'But now... this girl apparently hired some strategist and actually started simping?'

'So annoying!'

He had to release some steam with a good, hearty battle.

Axel clicked the match button and entered the game instantly.

"Whoa, looks like a lot of people play this game, it started so fast."

Axel glanced at the opponent's ID. It was a female character named Big Cabbage.

"Heh, already called Big Cabbage and still chose a female character? What girl doesn't go with Little Cabbage?"

"Definitely some foot-scratching dude pretending. Watch how I teach you a lesson!"

Axel sneered and started equipping skills for Mew.

It's worth noting that this game didn't limit players to just four moves like the Pokémon games he'd seen before his fusion, it allowed free editing.

Axel didn't pick too many, just directly chose Seal and Transform.

For bullying noobs, two moves were enough.

The match began.

On Axel's game screen appeared Mew and Garchomp, and a surprised voice came from the Rotom.

"Yo? A newcomer actually recharged for a Mew, looks like someone who really loves battling," This voice flowed like a mountain spring, even purifying Axel's mood a little.

But thinking the person behind it might be some foot-scratching dude with a voice changer gave Axel the creeps.

Fight time.

The opponent's Garchomp quickly entered the field, and that nice-sounding voice rang out again, "What a pity, you didn't run into me and Garchomp sooner. I'm really worried you'll quit the game after losing to me."

"At that time... your money will be wasted, you know?"

"Garchomp, use Dragon Rush!"

Axel curled his lips. With an attack style this aggressive, 'Yep, definitely some tough guy who loves brute force.'

'Might even be a karate guy!'

"Mew, use Transform."

"Meow~", came a soft cat-like sound as Mew transformed into Garchomp.

The opponent trainer's soft chuckle followed, "You won't beat Garchomp this way."

"Missing a mega evolution and coordinated attacks. Even if you copied all of Garchomp's moves, you'll still lose to us."

"Who said I was going to fight you?", Axel cleared his throat and aimed at the Rotom phone's mic, "Mew, use Seal!"

The moment he gave the command, Axel clearly felt Caitlin's thigh tremble.

Pop!

Axel flicked Caitlin on the forehead.

"If you can't stay calm, get off my lap. You're already losing it after just two moves, what kind of look is that?"

"Oh~", Caitlin watched Axel's phone screen with glowing eyes. She was more than familiar with the opponent's ID.

Big Rotten Cabbage and Chicken Rotten Cabbage were her and Cynthia's gamer tags, set not long after they met and never changed.

So Caitlin was absolutely certain, this was her bestie Cynthia.

"My poor bestie..."

"Ah!"

A scream came through the microphone.

Cynthia jumped up from bed, glaring viciously at her phone screen.

'This guy is way too dirty!'

'He used Transform to copy all of my Garchomp's moves, then used Seal to block all of Garchomp's moves!'

[Seal: If the opponent has the same moves as yourself, only the opponent is unable to use them.]

Under the effect of this move, Garchomp couldn't use any skills at all and could only struggle under Cynthia's commands.

Each struggle consumed a massive amount of stamina, and now her Garchomp was nearly done for.

After two more coordinated attacks, Garchomp collapsed weakly to the ground.

Cynthia, calming down, took a deep breath and sent a friend request.

She had just looked at the opponent's battle record, just an ordinary alt account.

For an alt account trainer to use such dirty tactics meant that, in real life, this person was definitely a tactics master.

This kind of person was totally worth befriending.

Cynthia eagerly watched the system message, planning to ask for a Rotom contact number once her request was accepted.

"Wants to add me as a friend?", Axel curled his lips. With his extensive gaming experience, even with his toes he could tell what the other person was trying to do.

Definitely just mad from losing and didn't even get the chance to flame me earlier.

'Now trying to come up with a way to flame me?'

'Good luck with that tonight!'

Axel instantly clicked reject and casually reported the user.

[Report info: The other party asked for my contact number, trying to trick me into third-party purchases!]

A few seconds later, the opponent's avatar dimmed instantly.

Axel happily put down his Rotom phone and gave Caitlin a thumbs-up.

"High-recharge account feels so good!"

Caitlin: "..."

'Is there a possibility that you'd feel even better after meeting my bestie?'

As for her bestie's strength, Caitlin understood it to the core.

The number one Garchomp trainer in the world, founder of the Berserker battle style.

Especially after Cynthia became Champion, she crushed Team Galactic until they couldn't even lift their heads.

Even if Axel was dirty, Caitlin knew, his raw strength couldn't match her bestie.

Thinking this, Caitlin quietly took out her Rotom and opened her chat with Cynthia.

[I heard you're on vacation lately. I'm about to go study in Ninox, Aurient. Want to come hang out for a while?]
