BXBX NOVEL Chapter 112 - Pokemon Master Of Tactics: 112 (Bonus )
10 minutes later, the Kingler, whom the leader had sent away, came from the sea with the treasure chest on his back.
Alex, who saw this treasure chest, suppressed his greed to steal the whole treasure chest.
He thought about the pros and cons. And in the end, decided not to try to rob this group.
This group is much stronger than the collective power of Alex\'s Pokémon. So that even with careful tactics, it is tough to win safely. Besides, Alex was gonna stay on this island for a long time. So he can even trade items with this group several times.
Why should he bear all these disadvantages for the benefit of saving a little money?
Kingler took the chest and placed it in front of Alex. Then the female leader said, "Ok. Here it is. See if you can find something that interests you."
For Kingler, these items are useless. They collect it as a hobby. Kinda like James\'s hobby of collecting bottle caps. When you can swap these muda- I mean, useless items for food that can increase the potential, there is not much to think about. (EN: I couldn\'t help myself from inserting a Jojo meme. Yare yare.)
Alex, who looked inside the chest, found a lot of useless stuff. Scales, shells, and pearls make up the majority of the contents of this chest.
Although the pearls can be sold for a relatively good price, there were no big pearls that could earn a large amount of money.
What made Alex\'s day was finding 3 Water Stones and a King\'s Rock in this chest.
There are a total of 4 types of Evolution stones, each having different values. And one Evolution stone can be 100 times more valuable than another Evolution stone.
Low-Water Stone, Mid-Water Stone, High-Water Stone, and Top-Water Stone.
Low-Water Stone, don\'t change the potential of Pokémon using it.
Mid-Water Stone has a very small chance of increasing the potential of Pokémon under Gold Potential.
High-Water Stone has a good chance of improving the potential the Pokémon under Gold Potential.
Top-Water Stone Enhances the potential of every Pokémon that uses it. It can also improve the potential exponentially if the Pokémon\'s potential is very low. (For example, Normal to Shallow Silver)
2 Water Stones were Low-Water Stones. But fortunately, Alex found 1 High-Water Stones.
Looking through the chest, Alex saw a scale that had a unique color. This scale reminded Alex a lot of an item called the Deep Sea Scale, so he also chose it.
Alex chose these items at the end:
1 High-Water Stones
2 Low-Water Stone
King\'s Rock
Deep Sea Scale (possibly)
153 Pearls
Although he doesn\'t need any of these items, they are very valuable and can bring him a lot of money. Also, who knows when he might need one of these items.
Especially the King\'s Rock is a very expensive and rare item. Besides, most trainers are not aware of the importance of this King\'s Rock. Thus making it even more valuable. Although Alex thinks that the Alliance must have already discovered what these items do, it seems to be confidential information in this world.
Alex and Kingler negotiated for a few minutes for the amount of food Alex had to give as payment. Fortunately, Kingler only knew that these items were useful to Alex but not how much. So she was at a disadvantage in this negotiation.
In the end, Alex only had to pay for 1 month of food for all of these items. Alex wanted to bring the amount down a bit more, but he also didn\'t want to lose Kingler\'s goodwill for a few Pokédollars.
Just the chance to negotiate with Kingler again after two months is worth losing a little money. Losing the opportunity of earning 1,000,000 Pokédollars for the momentary gain of 1,000 Pokédollars didn\'t make sense to Alex.
Alex said goodbye to the Kingler group and set off to explore this area more closely.
Because it\'s a green area, Alex wasn\'t afraid to explore it.
He walked along the coast and occasionally saw various Water-type Pokémon swimming near the shoreline. But because most of the Pokémon didn\'t have good potential, Alex ignored them.
After a few minutes, Alex suddenly received a warning from Crobat that 2 Pokémon were fighting against each other. That piqued Alex\'s interest, and he asked Crobat to lead them to these two Pokémon.
Crobat wordlessly led the group along the coast. After 3 minutes, Alex could see two Pokémon fighting at the coast.
A large Gyarados and a Kingler with a dangerous aura fought on the edge of the beach. Even without the system, experienced trainers would be able to assess that Kingler was an Elite Pokémon.
Gyarados, several times taller than Kingler, was completely covered in wounds. The blood on his body may lead someone to believe that he was a shiny Gyarados.
In comparison, Kingler only had a few minor injuries.
Alex, who saw the information of both Pokémon, immediately knew the reason.

-------------------------
Defeating an Elite Pokémon without a particularly effective tactic is almost impossible. So it was not surprising that Gyarados was at the losing end in this fight.
Alex was also a little surprised that Gyarados even tried to fight this Kingler, who is much stronger than him. If Alex was Gyarados, he would have flown away immediately and tried to escape this almost impossible fight. Fighting a losing war that only leads to your destruction for no reason is a fool\'s job. Although Kingler is stronger than Gyarados, it cannot fly or swim as fast as Gyarados. So there is no reason for Gyarados to fight to the end.
While thinking, Alex suddenly noticed that the Gyarados\'s eyes lost their aggressive expression and looked normal again. After Gyarados could now think like normal Pokémon, he immediately flew away from Kingler, who kept chasing him with a crazy look.
Alex, who saw how Gyarados was apparently easily controlled by his emotions, understood why it is so difficult to train a Gyarados for a trainer.
