Pokemon: Master of tactics

Chapter 279 - Pokemon Master Of Tactics: 279

Vermilion City.

Alex walked slowly with his Gardevoir next to him, to the streets of the City as he thought about which Pokemon are best against this Gym Leader.

The Gym Leader Alex is thinking about is Lt. Surge who, in his opinion, should not be easy to defeat like the other three Gym Leaders. Compared to the other three Gym Leaders Alex had already fought against, Lt. Surge is much stronger and shouldn't be underestimated.

Alex, who had been in this world for over a year, knew a lot about the Kanto Gym leaders who in Kanto are similar to celebrities and political figures rolled into one.

Lt. Surge at this point at a time is rated as much as Koga and Sabrina by most trainers.

The second strongest Gym Leader from Kanto is Blaine who reportedly has a half-blood Moltres and even a good relationship with the Legendary Full Blood Pokemon Moltres.

Giovanni didn't have a Legendary Pokemon and his full strength is not understood by anyone, but his title as Strongest Gym Leader was unbreakable.

The main reason why Giovanni is in the first place, even if no one knows his full strength, is that Giovanni had never even lost an S-rank Gym Babge fight as a Gym Leader and that although he had not used his full strength. Even Blaine didn't have such a perfect record.

Although the top 2 strongest Gym Leaders in Kanto are clear for most trainers, it is not so unanimous for places three to five.

Erika also has a lot of fans and there are always some extreme fans who say that she is the strongest but even most of the fans admit the Lt. Surge, Koga, and Sabrina are currently a lot stronger even if they say that Erika had better potential than at least Lt. Surge.

Lt. Surge, Koga, and Sabrina are at a similar level at this point and generally at a very similar strength level even though most of the trainers are ranking Lt. Surge as the weakest of the three in official fighting.

Of the 3 gym leader's main teams (6 Pokemon), Koga's team is the one with the highest average level and Sabrina had the ability to help her Pokemon with her psychic powers.

In official fights, you can use psychic powers as long as you don't influence your opponent or his Pokemon. Because of this, she can use her abnormal psychic powers to strengthen her Pokemon or give her Pokemon telepathically commands.

Compared to these two monsters, the average level from Lt. Surge's Pokemon are the weakest and Lt. Surge also had no special skills to compensate for this disadvantage.

But he was still viewed on a very similar level as Koga and Sabrina by most because he had a specialty that the other two did not have.

Lt. Surge was the trainer with the most Elite level Pokemon and reportedly there are more than 40+ Elite level Pokemon under him.

In addition, more than half of his elite Pokemon are on the mid and high elite level.

That's why many say the Lt. Surge in a fight without rules his Pokemon are much stronger than those of Koga or Sabrina.

Although this is only strength in terms of Pokemon and in a fight without rules it can well happen that Koga or Sabrina win against Lt.Surge.

Sabrina's psychic powers or the deadly sneak attacks of Koga are not something that can be easily defeated with a number of strong Pokemon.

But because of these strengths and weaknesses of the three, most trainers or even the normal population disagree about who is the strongest of the three.

For Alex, who is from another world, this is no question.

Although in this world, not all things worked like in the game, anime, or manga, there were a few things where Alex is very sure.

In terms of gym leaders and Elite Four members, this world has not yet had any major deviations from the games he had played so that he is sure that Koga is the strongest of the three.

Only Koga managed to become an elite four member of the three.

Although Sabrina probably has the strength to become an elite four member in the future like Koga, Alex doesn't know for sure.

He can imagine that with Sabrina's talent and strength for her young age she can still be stronger than Koga in the future and only likes the gym leader position and therefore does not become an elite four member, but that is not to say with certainty.

In comparison, Lt.Surge is the oldest trainer and is even overtaken by Erika in the game and, according to Alex's assessment, is the weakest of the three in terms of future prospects.

But that is only in comparison to these two monsters and under no circumstances is Lt.Surge a trainer who can be underestimated.

Even if all of Alex's Pokemon are at level 59, he didn't think he could win against Lt.Surge and his army of Elite Pokemon.

Even though Lt.Surge doesn't have a Champion level Pokemon he is extremely strong and even a trainer with a weak Champion level Pokemon (level 60 or 61) wouldn't dare to be arrogant towards Lt.Surge.

Alex feels that Lt.Surge is only strong if you don't have a Pokemon that has the strength to defeat all of his Mid and Late Elite level Pokemon with a hit or two.

But the number of trainers who meet this requirement is very small, so Lt.Surge is really a ridiculously strong trainer.

Alex, who knew all this, had great expectations for this fight and he hoped that his Pokemon could gain important experience.

A young man suddenly came up in front of Alex as he was making his way to the Vermilion City gym and he said with a smile "are you, Alex?"

Alex suppressed his urge to roll his eyes when he said with a fake smile "Yeah, do you want an autograph?"

Although Alex was already well known in Kanto, he became even more famous after his fight with Brock and Erika. He started to meet more and more fans who want an autograph or want to start a conversation with him.

Alex, who had a rise in fame, did not feel happiness but sadness that more idiots were annoying when he walked through a city without a mask.

The young man didn't stop smiling when he said, "No, I came to challenge you to a Pokemon battle."

Alex who heard this almost showed an annoyed expression, when he calmly said "I don't have time. I have an appointment in 10 minutes."

The young man shows a sad but understandable expression as he watched Alex leave.

Although Alex's face hardly changed in this exchange, he thought completely different.

'Fuck, is that annoying and all because of this bastard who filmed my fight with this weak Raticate trainer.'

After his ridiculously easy fight with a person who challenged him in front of everyone and after the fight was filmed by a person and published online, Alex realized that he was being challenged more and more by trainers.

The problem was that all of these "trainers" are extremely weak and that Alex doesn't want to waste time with these people.
