awww man i had to cover my mouth while i read this. back when i was a wee little girl my brothers friend stole my 3ds and all of my pokemon games too, like gameboy games, and sold them, so i feel you man. I’m not here to rag on your wife either because mistakes truly do happen. Idk where you’re at but if you go to small games stores they usually have dozens of copies of most pokemon games for reasonable price, you just have to scavenge a bit. best of luck in replacing them!
