Pokemon: Master of tactics

Chapter 234 - Pokemon Master Of Tactics: 234 (Bonus )

These 10 days were incredibly fruitful for Alex and his Pokémon.

Not only has he unearthed several valuable Diamonds, but his Pokémon had gained a big boost in their leveling.

Especially his Elite-level Pokémon had gained lots of experience in this area as they fought against many Elite-level Pokémon every day.

Gardevoir, Crobat, and Scizor managed to increase their level to 46. Though, Crobat, Gardevoir and Scizor did it on the last day.

Umbreon and Blaziken were the Pokémon that benefited most from this extensive.

Not only did Umbreon increased her level by 3, but she also became a Shallow Diamond Pokémon.

Now with Perfect Talent, the training of Master-rank move would be greatly accelerated. Thus, training [Rest] and [Sleep Talk] to the Master-rank should only take 2 months..

If Umbreon really has these two moves on the Master-rank, she really would become (almost) invincible against Pokémon on the same level.

Though it's not like there would be no way she can be defeated, it's ridiculous enough, in Alex's opinion.

Blaziken is almost the exact opposite of Umbreon, with a fighting style focused on defeating her opponent in the shortest time possible.

Alex can already imagine what happens when she uses the "Attract (Master-rank) + Sunny Day (Expert rank)" combo and finishing it off with Overheat (Master rank).

As long as the opponent has not overbearingly good Sp. Def or a Fire-type resistance, Alex doesn't believe that a Pokémon on the same level can take such a hit easily.

After this trip, Alex—very happy with the level of his team—started thinking about various ways that can increase the potential of his Pokémon.

Vulpix was already a Deep Gold Pokémon, and Alex has a Top-Ice stone. So reaching the Shallow Diamond potential shouldn't be a problem for her. Especially since Vulpix was born with exceptional talent.

Shuppet only needed a good-quality item to reach the Deep Gold talent. And then, he can use the Remains (ashes) of a Champion-level Gengar of SS-rank talent during his evolution to get him on the Shallow Diamond.

Bringing Crobat, Scizor, and Gardevoir to the Shallow Diamond with items should not be easy or cheap. So he will continue to buy good-quality items for these Pokémon, but he doesn't think that a few items would be enough for them.

The fact that they were born with the Deep Silver potential has really become a huge hindrance when Alex tries to bring them up to the Shallow Diamond potential.

Alex has little hope for Ditto. Unless he can find a perfect Full-Blood Legendary item, it should be impossible for Ditto to reach the Shallow Diamond rank.

Bastiodon is the Pokémon that Alex thinks (except for Shuppet and Vulpix) can reach the Shallow Diamond potential very quickly.

Not only has he used very few items so far, but he was also born with a Shallow Gold potential.

If Alex can buy several very good-quality items for Bastiodon, it shouldn't be impossible to improve his potential.

Unfortunately, such good items are not only expensive but also rare to appear in the market.

"Gardevoir, teleport us to Celadon City," Alex said.

Alex first planned to sell the items he had won from his trip to the Shopping Center of Celadon city.

He has great hopes for the Diamonds in particular.

...

2 hours later, Alex came out of the Celadon City Shopping Center with a smile that just gave out how profitable his sales were.

He had his Diamonds examined by stores (including Team Rocket), and Jack was the person who gave Alex the best deal, again, due to Alex's membership card.

Most of the Diamonds that Alex unearthed were very small and could not be sold for a very high price.

But there were some with a good crystalline structure and high carat. So those were sold for a ridiculous price.

This small number of high-quality Diamonds was responsible for getting most of Alex's money.

After selling the corpses of Elite-level Pokémon and the Diamonds, he was able to get 120,323,789 Pokédollar from Jack.

Only a few million were from the Elite-level Pokémon corpses, and most of the money was from the Diamonds.

Alex now has more than 140,000,000 Pokédollars to his name and was an actual very wealthy person now. He had the whole money paid out in cash, which took a long time.

He also tried looking for good-quality items for Bastiodon. But to his surprise, Jack had nothing on stock for Steel and Rock-type Pokémon because yesterday, a "Very Rich" customer bought all of these items.

Alex suddenly felt that he knew who this Very Rich customer was. There was only one guy who would buy so many ridiculously expensive Steel and Rock-type items.

After that, Alex, who left the shopping center and found a quiet place, called Steven without waiting a moment.

"Oh, Alex! What's up?"

Alex went straight to the point, "Hey Steven, I need your help."

Steven, who heard this blunt statement, showed a smile. He really likes this frank side of Alex. He doesn't waste his time in compliments or sugarcoating it but directly tells that he has called for his help.

It feels honest, which is why Steven sees Alex as a genuine friend.

Steven said with a heavy tone, "Sigh... So you only call me when you need help, huh?"

Alex knew what Steven was up to. "Are you my mother or what? I also called you last 3 days ago. If you want to make fun of me, you should at least not make such stupid mistakes."

Steven said with a fake arrogant tone, "Alex, as your only friend, I'll give you a tip. Don't make fun of the person you are asking for help. And let's not even talk about the jokes you make."

"What are you saying! My humor is of the highest quality."

"Yeah, right," Steven said with sarcasm, "Let's keep that aside for now. Tell me, what do you want?"

"Yesterday, a certain stupid person bought all the Rock and Steel-type items in the Celadon City Shopping Center. Now, I can't find any good item for my Bastiodon even though I have lots of money in my pocket," replied Alex with a sarcastic tone.

"Hmm, the way you speak is making it really difficult for me to agree to help you."

"Haha, I knew it was you."

"Are you a child? Stop laughing and tell me how much money you have for "good items" for Bastiodon, and I will send you items of the same value."

Alex, he heard Steven helping him, stopped laughing and said sincerely, "Thank you, Steven."

"Yes, yes, whatever. Tell me, now, how little money you have with you?"

"Little money? Hah! Jokes on you! I have more than 50 million ready for you."

"50 million? Not bad. Where did you get that much money from?"

"I was really fortunate and found this cave with some Diamonds in it..."

Alex and Steven talked for a few minutes before they both hung up. Steven told Alex that he would send the items to Alex in a few hours.
