Chapter 29: 29

After Scyther's fighting style was chosen, Alex thought about the move that Scyther should train. Fury Cutter and Roost are best for Scyther's fighting style. The problem is that Roost has to be trained for the expert rank to make it useful. Being able to use Roost while moving is a great advantage in combat and if you manage to train Roost to master rank, you can use Roost when attacking.

But there is a problem. Training a move from beginner to expert takes 4 months for a Pokemon with normal potential. You have to train intensively during these 4 months to be able to do it in 4 months. That's why potential is so important for trainers. Nobody wants to waste their time training a Pokemon that has no potential.

For example, Golbat's Shadow Ball is almost an expert rank after just 8 days. There are two reasons. one is that the Shadow Ball is an innate talent move and the other is that Golbat has silver potential.

Alex decided to mainly train Roost and Fury Cutter. It is important for these moves that Scyther can move if he used them. Fury Cutter can more easily be used to pursue an enemy and Roost can be used if Scyther dodges. Besides, Roost is an innate talent move so that the move can be mastered faster than other moves.

The problem is that Alex can't train this move effectively right now. In the forest, you never know when you will be attacked. if you are tired of training and are attacked by a strong Pokemon, you will likely lose a fight that you would normally win. Scyther also needs nutritious food. Zubat can drink blood from powerful Pokémon, but Scyther needs flying-type or bug-type food to improve his body effectively.

Alex thought, "Ok, I'll catch a lot of valuable Pokemon quickly and exchange them for TR Points. Then I can buy good food for Scyther. I should also buy Tauros blood for Golbat when I'm out of this forest."

After Scyther was healed, they all went on again.

After only 10 minutes, Golbat discovered another Pokemon that was hiding in a bush and probably wants to ambush other Pokemon.

Alex said "Golbat use ultrasonic against the bush and see which Pokemon is hiding there. If it's way too strong, fly away in the direction of our sleeping place. But don't worry too much, strong Pokemon usually don't use such a trap. Scyther and I stay here for now. "

Scyther looked at Alex and said with sign language "why am I staying here? You know I can fly too, right?"

Alex smiled and said shamelessly "So that you can protect me."

Scyther was surprised and gave Alex an odd look. For him, it's abnormal that Alex can say this with a smile. But he has to agree with Alex, human beings are really weak. Even a weak Pokemon can kill a grown man.

Golbat flies in the direction of the bush and use ultrasonic against it.

A Raticate immediately ran out of the bush and looked angrily in the direction of Golbat.

Alex looked at Raticate info.

---------------------

Alex thought "LV 23 and bronze, not bad. Also, this is a good matchup for Golbat because Raticate has no attack the Golbat can hit in the air. I let Golbat fight this fight himself. He should be able to win easily without me."

The fight ended after just 3 minutes. Raticate could reach Golbat with his bounce, but Golbat was too flexible in the air that Raticate couldn't even hit Golbat. Raticate noticed this and tried to run away, but was followed and stopped by Golbat. Raticate was completely pissed off and tried to hit Golbat at least once. Only after 3 minutes, Raticate could no longer take the damage and passed out.

Alex caught Raticate with a Pokeball and praised Golbat for his good fight.

After 30 minutes, Golbat spotted 5 Beedrill. These Beedrill were between lv 13 and 15 and one of these Beedrill was bronze potential.

Alex said "Scyther you are fighting these 5 Beedrill. Use Focus Energy as often as you can before the fight and then immediately try to defeat a Beedrill with Wing Attack."

Scyther was happy that he could finally fight and nodded to Alex. He then used Focus Energy 4 times and then he attacked a Beedrill with Wing Attack. He hit this Beedrill on the head, a critical hit. Scyther immediately defeated a Beedrill with one hit. The Beedrill saw that one of them was put down and was angry. The 4 Beedrill tried to circle Scyther, but Scyther did not allow that and immediately attacked a Beedrill with a Wing Attack. He hurts this Beedrill badly.

After just a minute, Scyther defeated all Beedrill in close combat. Although he was slightly injured, he used Roost to heal himself after the fight.

Alex was very impressed with Scyther's close combat strength. Zubat on the same LV could only win with a hit and run tactic. But Scyther could win with rough strength.

Then Alex took out a Pokeball and caught the bronze Beedrill. Then he allowed Golbat to drink the blood of the other Beedrill and Scyther to eat the other Beedrill. Although this is cruel, Scyther has to eat and Alex has no other food for Scyther. In the wild, the strong eat the weak.

Alex thinks after joining Team Rocket he's become more immoral. He used to think he would strongly avoid killing a human or a Pokemon. but now he's ready to kill a human or a Pokemon if the Pokemon or human is not innocent. To him, a Pokemon life is worth just as much as human life is.

So why is Alex indirectly killing a Pokemon?. The reason is that Beedrill is a Pokemon that likes to hunt and kill weak Pokemon for fun. Alex has no problem using such Pokemon as food.
