When Alex lifted his head, he saw all of his Pokémon staring curiously at the sleeping Torchic.
Scizor and Crobat showed no emotion on their face, but their curious eyes betrayed them.
In contrast to Scizor and Crobat, Kirlia, Ditto, and Shieldon openly showed their joy about the new member.
Kirlia was especially happy that she is finally not the only female in this group. Though she didn't say anything, she was looking forward to talking to Torchic.
Alex said quietly, "I can understand your joy, but we will wait until Torchic wakes up before we say hello."
Scizor said, "Humph! Says the guy who has already said his hello." Kirlia heard what Scizor was saying, and Alex could hear a voice over Telepathy.
Alex showed a surprised expression when he heard Scizor's reply. He didn't think Scizor would be so jealous just because he had talked to her first. Could it be that he wanted to build a good relationship with the other Fighting-type Pokémon?
"Could it be that you are looking for a sparring partner?"
Scizor made a surprised face. "What are you talking about. Why should I fight a baby?"
"No, I mean that you want to fight another Fighting-type Pokémon in the long run."
He just ignored Alex and started his training again.
Alex just smiled seeing this, and thought, "Why do I feel very respected and not respected at the same time?"
Crobat went to Scizor to indicate that he had assured the win in this tournament. In contrast, Scizor told Crobat that he did not fight the strongest Pokémon and should keep his mouth shut. Then they started arguing relatively quietly with each other.
Alex, who saw that they were showing consideration for Torchic by bickering quietly, didn't say anything and just smiled slightly. He forgot for a moment that these two Pokémon have probably killed more creatures than a serial killer.
Shieldon, who is the youngest and is still a child in human years, showed a great curiosity when he looked at Torchic.
Alex saw this and said with a smile, "Shieldon, you are a big brother now. So you should always take care of your little sister from now on."
Shieldon showed a surprised expression when he heard these words, but after a few seconds showed a serious expression. But because of his small size and age, this serious expression looked incredibly cute.
Kirlia, who saw this expression, couldn't help but stroke Shieldon's head. Shieldon did nothing and let Kirlia stroke him with a happy face.
Alex, who saw this, could only shake his head. He just hoped that Shieldon took his words seriously.
He saw how it was quiet again and took out his TRH device to check if there was anything interesting to buy.
Even though he had spent a lot of money in the past few weeks, especially after buying the TM Sandstorm, he still had a lot of money left.
During the 12 days in this city, he sold a lot of Silver Pokémon and made a quick buck. Although his money was slowly becoming scarce, he can always get more money by going to a new city's black market to buy/sell Silver Pokémon.
Alex's money:
359,800 TR Points
233,000 Pokédollars.
While looking through the items from the Team Rocket shop, he checked the limited items section.
Among all the relatively useless things, one item piqued Alex's interest.
Heart of an Elite Raticate: 10/20
You are reading story Pokemon: Master of tactics at novel35.com
Price: 25,000 TR Points
Even though it's just an item from Raticate, it was valuable to him. Every heart from a strong Pokémon is quite helpful, especially from Elite Pokémon and higher.
Alex looked at Ditto, who was playing chess against Kirlia, and knew that he can probably increase Ditto's potential with this.
Although it was expensive and buying another Silver Pokémon would be more efficient, Alex was willing to pay that money.
He paid 250,000 TR Points and waited to receive a transfer request. Now that his TRH device could teleport small items, he no longer has to go to the Team Rocket base to receive the items.
After 20 minutes, Alex received a request to transfer an item. Alex put his TRH device on the table and accepted the request.
After just a second, a small box could be seen on the table. Alex moved the box and accepted the next request. After repeating this 9 times, there were 10 boxes on Alex's table.
He opened one of these boxes and saw a bloody heart lying inside. It had a cold aura like it was just taken out from the refrigerator.
Alex didn't lose any time and put 9 of these hearts in his TRH device. He knows that the temperature of the items stored in the TRH device doesn't change. Though he never cared about how and why.
He went to Ditto and said with a smile, "Hey, Ditto! I found a way to increase your potential a bit."
Ditto showed a surprised and happy expression as he quickly ran(crawl‽) like a puppy in the direction of Alex.
Alex opened the box and put a heart in front of Ditto, who absorbed it in his body without hesitation. It looked like slime was slowly dissolving its prey.
Although this process was very sluggish, Ditto managed to absorb the heart.
Alex knew that he probably had not increased Ditto's potential, but he still checked the info.
------------------------------
Pokémon: Ditto
LV: 32
Type: Normal
Abilities: Imposter (Hidden Ability)
Gender: Genderless
Potential: Shallow Silver
Move: (Innate Talent) Transform [E]
--------------------------------
Although he expected that, he couldn't help but be disappointed. Alex could only hope that he can increase Ditto's potential with the other 9 hearts. Although only one heart can be eaten per day in order to make the most out of it, 9 days are not really long for Alex.
