Pokemon: Master of tactics

Chapter 350: Pokemon master of tactics: Chapter 350

The referee said loudly, "Participant Alex gave up. Participant Koga wins this match."

Koga showed only an emotionless expression upon hearing that he had won that fight.

He recalled his Pokemon right away and left the arena without even looking at Alex or saying a word.

It was very rude to do so, but Alex just kept a calm expression.

He was secretly happy when Koga ignored him and Alex didn't intend to speak to Koga any further.

Koga was one of the rare "Human Monsters" in the Pokemon world that are more dangerous than normal Pokemon Champions are.

At least normal Pokemon Champions are not extremely skilled and experienced in the assassination of humans and Pokemon or have weird skills.

Koga or Sabrina have such weird skills as Human that they are far more dangerous to Alex than most Pokemon champions. Even though they are weaker than most Pokemon champions in a direct Pokemon fight.

Alex called Crobat back to his Pokeball, after healing him and he slowly started to leave the arena.

He gained a lot of fans in this tournament and when he went to the underpass he heard many positive shouts from the spectators.

Most even call him by his nickname (Master of tactics) rather than his real name.

Alex flashed a smile as he realized that his fans weren't too disappointed after this one-sided match, that he gave up.

He was already willing to take a hit in his popularity after he gave up this match, to avoid more unnecessary injury his Pokemon would suffer. but it seemed his worries were unfounded.

When he entered the waiting room again, a staff member was already waiting for him

The staff member said a few polite words to him and then take Alex to a big room, where Alex will get his prize.

In this room were not only several surveillance cameras and a thick steel door, but also half of the room was separated with thick glass.

Alex could see many extremely valuable items behind this thick glass.

This room even had a bodyguard who looked at Alex and the staff member when they entered the room.

Alex suddenly realized he was seeing the info of a Pokemon when he looked at the Man's Shadow.

Alex knew that this man wasn't strong enough to directly defeat one of the top 8 participants and that he was probably supposed to stop potential burglars, that want to steal the items.

However, this man wasn't weak and if he had several Pokemon at that level, Alex himself wasn't sure he could win against this man.

Alex, who finishes in the top 8, not only gets 5 million Pokedollars in prize money but also a special item, as his price.

The 5 million Pokedollars was a ridiculous amount of money for a regular trainer, but just a good amount for any top 16 Trainers in this tournament. Not bad, but not a lot of money either.

The one special item that a top 16 participant could get was the real prize.

Alex would normally pick the most expensive item if he can, but because he's only finished in the top 8, he was only able to choose from items within 20 million Pokedollars.

But he already knew before his last fight which item he would choose.

"Please give me the [Dragon Scale]"

[Dragon Scale] is very similar to the item [Dragon Fang]. It can also only be found from a corpse of a fully evolved dragon-type Pokemon. ( Not every Dragon-type species will generate a [Dragon Scale] or [Dragon Fang] upon dying. Although a high level greatly increases the chance of it happening.)

However, [Dragon Fang] is more than twice as expensive as [Dragon Scale], although both are almost equally difficult to obtain.

[Dragon Scale] is very useful for Trainers with a Seadra, but not for all Dragon-type Pokemon like [Dragon Fang].

it is still rare and is not always on sale. It is not an item that is cheap.

[Dragon Scale] is worth somewhere between 17,5 and 20 million Pokedollars which makes it almost the perfect item for Alex.

It's better to choose this item now than to wait and buy it overpriced later. or wait months for it to be offered at a normal price.

With this item, his Seadra will soon become a Shallow Diamond Kingdra and thus his 6th Pokemon with this potential.

He will soon also have a team full of Shallow Diamond Pokemon. (like Steven)

In addition, his first three Pokemon can shortly all reach a Shallow Diamond potential, if he has enough money.

For Crobat, Gardevoir, Scizor together, Alex already bought items worth around 90 million Pokedollars, and according to his estimate, he needed another 210 million Pokedollars to bring all his three Pokemon to the Shallow Diamond potential.

That's just an estimate by Alex though, and Alex himself has conceded the possibility that it could take, more or less, than 100 million Pokedollars of item's worth to improve one of his three starting Pokemon's potential.

Alex could only hope it wasn't much more than 100 million Pokedollars per Pokemon. not that he had now that much money anyway.

Including the prize money from this tournament, Alex "only" had less than 12 million Pokedollars to his name.
