Pokemon: Master of tactics

Chapter 210 - Pokemon Master Of Tactics: 210

Alex, who was meditating, heard an abrupt knock on the door followed by the polite words, "Sir, can I come in?"

He said solemnly, "Wait," and told Ditto to come back and change his face.

Then he opened the door, finding a subordinate standing there.

Lisa had given him several subordinates who can help him with this test, and he was one of them. Of course, Alex can't show his actual face, so he has to wear the Ditto mask permanently outside of his room.

Alex also brought back all of his Pokémon in Pokéballs except for Crobat.

A man in his late 20s walked into the room with a solemn face and a laptop in his hands. This subordinate was called Andrew and was a Team Rocket Captain under Lisa's command.

"Sir, according to your orders, we have set hidden cameras in every rookie's room and connected them to this laptop."

"Good job. Have you prepared the 100 A-rank Pokémon along with the 100 random ones?"

"Yes, Sir."

"Nice work. Now, let's go to that room."

Alex bought 100 different A-rank Pokémon with Lisa's help to make sure that there are at least a few good ones in these 100 trainers.

He wanted the best trainer, someone who can get stronger quickly as a subordinate and not someone lucky enough to get a Pokémon with good potential.

Each of these A-rank Pokémon was a typical Team Rocket Pokémon, so Alex could only buy A-rank Pokémon from 5 species: Rattata, Spearow, Zubat, Koffing, and Ekans.

In addition, each of these Pokémon was between LV 10 and LV 15, which also increased their price.

Alex had to pay 8.1 million Pokédollars to buy these additional 100 A-rank Pokémon from Team Rocket. It was only possible because he had a high position along with Lisa's help.

Although Alex had bought 100 A-rank Pokémon for the test, he had no intention of giving away these Pokémon just like that.

He already had a plan to get at least most of his money back without any problem.

Alex and his subordinate went to a large football stadium-size familiar hall.

It was none other than here, where Alex first came more than 6 months ago, and his life took a big turn.

There were 4 more Team Rocket members but with less strength and rank than the subordinate Andrew.

Although these 4 Team Rocket members were weaker than Andrew, they were still more than strong enough to defeat several rookies at once.

Alex looked in the direction of Andrew and said in a dull tone, "You can start."

Andrew nodded and took a Pokéball from his belt, which he immediately threw on the floor.

A Hypno immediately appeared. After Andrew gave him instructions, Hypno nodded and teleported away from this hall.

In Pewter city, there are 21 places where the people can come to take part in this test.

There was 1 central place for recruit, where 50 unconscious participants had already been gathered. Of course, their background was heavily checked after making them lose consciousness. There are also 20 other places in poor surroundings where between 1 and 5 people were put in a dark room, unconscious.

Hypno would teleport to each of these 21 locations and then bring all participants to this location.

Fortunately, every place is in the surroundings of Pewter city, so the Hypno is sufficient for this number of teleports, especially if he allows himself enough time to use [Teleport].

Using [Teleport] in combat or in rest makes a big difference in range and energy consumption.

"And you too," said Alex to another subordinate who also had a Psychic-type Pokémon.

He asked Lisa for 2 subordinates who have Psychic-type Pokémon so that he doesn't have to show Gardevoir or have to wait a long time.

After less than 20 minutes, all 100 participants were scattered throughout the large hall.

All of them are still sleeping, and they will be for at least 15 minutes. Probably 25 minutes before every one of the 100 wakes up, according to Alex.

He and his subordinates left and went to the next room, waiting and observing via the hidden cameras.

Alex looked at the young men and girls who were almost the same age as him and suddenly began to think about how young he is and how far he has come.

He recalled the day when he came to this world. He was thrown out of the orphanage on his 16th birthday. Now, it had been almost 1 year. He realized that he would be 17 years old in 13 days.

Although Alex is much older mentally due to his previous life, he was still surprised how much had happened this year.

He went from dirt-poor unofficial civilian to wealthy and renowned trainer, got several family members, got into a relationship that genuinely makes him happy.

On the dark side, he became a murderer, enslaved innocent Pokémon and his life partners, manipulated several people and Pokémon.

When Alex thought about this eventful year, he felt glad that he came into this world.

Although he missed his family very much, he didn't miss anything from his old world that can be found in this Pokémon world.

Above all, this feeling of freedom is simply unique in this world.

Although this world had many flaws and several big problems, Alex would prefer to stay in this world and continue to pursue his goals.

In this world, he has a goal, a reason to work hard every day, a job he loves so much that he doubts he can find anything like that in his world.

Alex was impressed by this world full of uncertainty, joy, and opportunities.
