BXBX NOVEL Chapter 56 - Pokemon Master Of Tactics: 56
After 1 hour, in Alex\'s room.
Alex opened the box he just got from Lisa\'s subordinate.
This box contained 3 liters of Lugia blood and a large Lugia scale filled with Lugia\'s psychic power. In addition to that, 5 Team Rocket Captain uniforms.
Alex was very pleased with the purchase of these valuable items. He looked forward to Golbat and Ralts\'s evolution so that he can improve their potential.
Scyther needs Steel from a Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon to improve his potential.
Alex\'s first choice would be Steel from Registeel. Although there are many legendary Pokémon that have a Steel type, it is better to get Steel from a pure Steel-type Pokémon than Steel from other Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon.
Of course, he\'s not really picky about from which Half-Blood Legendary Steel-type Pokémon he can get Steel. Alex would be happy to get Steel from any strong (at least has LV 40 and good potential) Steel-type Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon.
Alex took out all of his Pokémon and looked at their info for the first time after the system upgrade.

Alex saw that all of his Pokémon have Deep Silver potential and suppressed his wish to scream out of joy. He was worried that some of his Pokémon only had Shallow Silver potential, and it would be difficult for him to get them to gold potential.
He was particularly impressed with Ralts\'s potential. One has to consider that Ralts has one more evolution form than Golbat and Scyther and can improve her potential 1 time more.
Alex suddenly heard how he got a message on his TRH device and took his TRH device out of the pocket.
Maria: Are you here at the base? You said you would come back today.
Alex: Yes, I just got back. We can start training now if you want.
Maria: Ok, I just rented a private training room for us. The room number is TR16, come asap.
Alex: I\'ll get there in a minute.
Maria: Ok.
Alex was looking forward to showing Maria that her last victory was only due to luck and had nothing to do with skill.
Although he has feelings for Maria, he also has his pride as a trainer. He felt that his first defeat was quite unfortunate and would not happen again.
Alex left his room and went to the public training grounds (private rooms are there at the public training ground).
After 5 minutes, Alex stood in front of the private training room no. 16 and rang the doorbell.
Alex saw the camera in front of the door activate and thought,
"Is the camera there to protect the trainers while they are training their Pokémon? hmm, Team Rocket is quite a well established criminal organization."
After half a minute, Maria opened the door whom Alex hadn\'t seen for 2 weeks. As soon as he saw her, he realized how much he had missed her.
Maria looked at Alex, who was wearing a Team Rocket Captain uniform, and was shocked. She did not expect that a trainer, whom she had defeated just two weeks ago, would stand in front of her in a Team Rocket Captain uniform.
Alex saw her shock and said with a smile, "Long time no see, Maria."
Maria recovered from her surprise and said, "Unbelievable. After only two weeks, you are already a Captain. How did you manage that?
Alex smiled and said, "I impressed a Team Rocket Executive and got promoted straight away. Before that, can I come in?"
Maria noticed that she was blocking the entrance and moved away for Alex to enter.
Inside there, Alex saw the large Arbok and a small Sandshrew with an intense look.

--------------------------------------------------
Alex had to say that Maria\'s Arbok exceeded his expectations slightly. Arbok, who has not been trained in the wild, is only 3 levels lower than Golbat. It shows what an abnormal talent Arbok has. Alex noticed that the difference between Deep Silver and Shallow Gold is higher than he expected.
For example, the difference in talent is smaller between a Shallow Gold Pokémon and a Gold Pokémon than the difference between a Shallow Gold Pokémon and a Deep Silver Pokémon.
Alex pulled out all of his Pokémon and said with a smile, "How about Arbok v/s Golbat rematch?"
Golbat, who came out of his Pokéball, saw Arbok and immediately recognized who it was. He remembered his first and the only defeat in his life (He is deliberately ignoring his loss against Scyther) and looked at Arbok furiously.
He wanted to wash away his only shame in life.
