Pokemon: Master of tactics

Lisa saw that Alex agreed and said with a smile,

"Good, you can call me Boss from now on. I only have one job for you now. That is to become an Elite Trainer in 6 months. If you do not manage to become an Elite Trainer within 6 months, I am looking for another, more talented person for me to become the right-hand man. I don't need a second class trainer as the right-hand man." ​​

Alex suppressed the smile and said, "Yes, Boss."

6 months was an absurd amount of time for Alex to become an Elite Trainer. He wasn't worried that he couldn't do this job. Normal or even talented trainers would say that this task is difficult. But for Alex, who is very rich and has talented Pokémon, this task is very easy.

Lisa looked at Alex's confidence and said, "I'm glad I have such a competent subordinate. Ok. Here, take this."

She took out a card and a belt and placed them on the table in front of Alex.

Alex immediately recognized that these items were for official Alliance members.

The Alliance ID card and the Alliance Pokémon belt are only worn by official Alliance trainers and are a status symbol.

Alex wasn't surprised that a Team Rocket Executive can easily register new trainers. For example, an Arena Leader can easily make a trainer an official member of the Alliance.

He would be surprised if he could become an Elite Alliance member.

There are three broad categories for trainers at the Alliance.

Unofficial Alliance Members.

Official Alliance Members.

Elite Alliance Members.

Elite Alliance members are the heart of the Alliance.

E.g., Gym Trainer, Elite Four, Chairman of the Alliance, etc.

Of course, some elite members have more rights than others. For instance, the person with the most political power in the region is the Champion of the Region.

Alex took the belt and the Alliance ID card. Alliance ID card had his name "Alex Stark" written on it and also had his photo, which he doesn't know from where did they find it.

He said, "Thank you, Boss. Also, I wanted to ask if you could sell me 3 liters of Lugia blood and a large Lugia scale filled with Lugia's psychic power."

Lisa smiled and said, "No problem. Only 150,000, and I'll sell you both items."

Alex knew that it was 3 times the price and said, "Boss, even though your Lugia is better than the Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon in the black market, it doesn't mean that he's worth three times as much."

Lisa stopped smiling and said, "Then why don't you go to the black market and buy the items there? You know that Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon only regenerate their valuable parts very slowly and when they regenerate, they are in a weakened state for a while.

The fact that I am even selling you some of my Lugia's valuable items shows what a generous Boss I am."

Alex knew what she said made sense. More than money, it is the opportunity to buy items that is more valuable. Not to mention, he is not low on money and can always earn more. Money was never the priority. So he agreed.

He didn't want to bother with his new Boss for a bit of money. He knows that greed is not a good trait to show to his new Boss, who has his life in her hands.

Lisa saw this and said, "By the way, I'm going to promote you to the Team

Rocket Captain. And if you can become an Elite Trainer within 6 months, I'll promote you to a Team Rocket Elite Captain, and my right-hand man."

Alex was surprised that she is already making him a Team Rocket Captain and said, "Thank you so much, Boss. I will give it my best to meet your expectations."

He knew that he was a little too weak to be a Team Rocket Captain already.

In Team Rocket, the rank usually tells you how strong a Team Rocket Member is. Of course, there are Team Rocket Members who are more powerful than Team Rocket Captains, but such a case is very rare and only right for a short time (like Alex, who is a Team Rocket Member but has the same strength as a weak Team Rocket captain ).

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

Alex rough assessment of the ranks in Team Rocket:

Team Rocket Lackey -

Team Rocket Member LV 15-25

Team Rocket Elite Member LV 25-35

Team Rocket Captain LV 30-45

Team Rocket Elite Captain LV 40-50

Team Rocket Executive LV 45- ??

Lisa smiled and said, "Good. You are a smart person.` Well, I would be able to send you the items to your room in 1 hour. I think we have nothing more to talk about now. Btw, tell Lars, who is waiting for the door, that he should come inside. "

Alex bowed to her and left the room.

He walked out of the room and let out a relieved breath. It went a lot better than he thought.

Alex saw Lars waiting in front of the door and looking at him with a jealous look. After seeing that look, he knew that Lars was 100% a masochist.

Lars asked, "What did you do in this room for so long?"

Alex thought that time he invested in their 'friendship' was wasted. All because Lars is a masochistic idiot.

Alex looked at Lars like an idiot and said, "Not what you think. Btw The Boss said that she wants to see you."

Lars wanted to ask Alex what he meant by "Boss". But as soon as he heard that Lisa wanted to see him, he ignored Alex and went towards Lisa's room.

As he left, he gave Alex another arrogant look and entered the room.

Although Alex doesn't want to do anything with Lisa, it doesn't mean that he has to be insulted by a third-rate trainer like Lars (even if it's out of jealousy).

He'd like to show Lars where his place is when he's not his new Boss' favorite toy. Alex isn't sure how Lisa would react if he damaged her favorite toy right now, and he doesn't want to test it. Although, it would be a different case if he isn't her favorite toy anymore. Not to mention it won't take too long to become an Elite Trainer and her right-hand man.

Alex suddenly saw Brand standing nearby and watching the whole scene.

He looked at Brand and said, "Are you also a person like Lars?"

Brand, who wanted to ask Alex the same question, suddenly smiled and said, "No. And I suppose you're not that kind of person either if you are asking such a question."

Alex smiled too and said, "I think we'll be good friends. Btw I'm Executive Lisa's new subordinate. Though I think you expected that, looking at how friendly you were behaving with me earlier."

Brand and Alex talked to each other for 10 minutes and exchanged their TRH device number.

After this talk, he walks in the direction of his room.
