The Pokémon Master Who Rose to Fame with Simulators

The Pokemon World, following the anime timeline.

Ash has just set out, and Gary has just begun his journey.

With three badges and a Persian at his side, Lin Yu stood alone inside Team Rocket Base.

His team was nearly wiped out, and Nidoking gored Yu to death.

Then Lin Yu woke up, and the Simulator bound itself to him.

[Double Experience], Achieve in a few months the dream others can barely reach.

[Recipe Simulator], While others are still buying medicine, he's already concocting special Pokéblocks so effective that even the League envies him.

[All-Knowing Eye], See a Pokemon's aptitude, potential, and skills at a glance. Even talents the Pokemon itself doesn't know it has are laid bare before him.

Others look at a Pokemon and think: This Eevee looks nice. Its fur is so shiny.

Lin Yu looks at a Pokemon and sees: Hidden Dream Ability, Anticipation; green aptitude; stubborn nature; hidden move, Return.

And then the entire League starts having nightmares.

Gym Leaders are so thoroughly beaten they lose all confidence, and the League Champion is chased around by him.

“Who is this Trainer?”

“No idea. All I know is that his Persian looks even colder than the Champion's Pokemon.”

Other challengers have to study their tactics before taking on a Gym. He can see their hidden cards, and the Gym Leaders lose all confidence on the spot.

Ash and Gary? Anime protagonists?

Sorry, I've rewritten this world's script.

Gyms? I'll take them down. The League? I'll storm it. The Champion title? Mine.

Nidoking? The day you killed my partner, you should have known this day would come.

“The System is only a support tool.”

Lin Yu stood on the Champion's podium, with only a Persian behind him.

“Being invincible as a genius is my choice. Becoming a Pokemon Master is my destination.”

From the orphanage to the very top.
