"So, that's roughly the content. If you think it's okay, we can finalize it."
After explaining in detail, Brock's throat was dry. He drank half a bottle of milk before recovering.
"Brock, this isn't just your first Gym Battle, it's also your first time discussing investment like this with someone like me, right?"
Tetsuya smiled, not answering Brock's question, but asking about something else.
"Ahaha, indeed." Brock rubbed his head. "Is it that obvious?"
"How should I put it?" Tetsuya put down his cutlery. "Honestly, this is my first time discussing something like this too. Although I felt that Ms. Joy and the others also gave me this kind of investment before, it was just a direct upgrade in treatment. We didn't have this kind of discussion."
"But I always feel like you being so direct is a bit off. Normally, shouldn't I be the one proposing conditions, you considering them, rejecting them, changing conditions, and then reaching a consensus?"
"It's not impossible. How about we scrap everything I just said and you propose again?"
"No need, I think it's very reasonable, very well-done. I have no objections." Tetsuya quickly waved his hand.
The two looked at each other and both started laughing.
Brock continued, "The above is official business. Basically, a verbal agreement is fine. I'll have someone send the specific details to your wristwatch later, and you can take a look."
"And the private matter is?" Tetsuya looked at Brock.
"The private matter is that I want to ask you for a favor. I'd like you to create a breeding plan for my Geodude. Of course, I'll pay the fee." Brock narrowed his eyes, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
"No problem, but it will take a few days." Tetsuya readily agreed.
"No rush. You can focus on your own things first. In five days, just go to the Pewter Gym front desk and ask for me."
"Okay, got it." Tetsuya glanced at his wristwatch. "Then I have something to do, I'll be leaving now."
"Okay, goodbye." "Goodbye."
Brock watched Tetsuya leave with his eyes still narrowed, and slowly stood up himself.
He recalled the conversation he had with his father this morning.
"So you've decided to let him be in charge of breeding your Geodude?" Brock's father's face showed no expression.
"Yes." "Are you sure?" "Very sure."
Brock's father was silent for a moment.
"Then go ahead. You're still young."
Brock narrowed his eyes. Yes, he was still young, he could take a gamble.
His intuition told Brock that what Tetsuya showed was definitely not everything.
If he succeeded, like his father back then, he would also quickly become a strong Trainer.
As for failure, it was just one Pokemon and some time, which he could afford to lose.
Hope you don't disappoint me, Brock thought, and left the Pokemon Center.
Meanwhile, Tetsuya retrieved his Pokemon from Joy and was still thinking as he walked towards the Bounty Hunter Center.
Why would Brock ask me to create a breeding plan for his Geodude for no reason? Is it a test?
No, if it were a test, he could just find any Gym Pokemon and have me do it, and he'd be able to see the results.
If it's not a test, then isn't this condition a bit too good?
Tetsuya couldn't quite figure it out.
As for the possibility that he couldn't find someone to create a plan, a normal person wouldn't think that way.
The son of a Gym Leader, the future heir to the Gym, and he himself was a very talented Breeder. You're saying he can't find someone to create a plan for his own Pokemon?
Even if he couldn't hire a Breeding Master, he could easily hire others. Besides, for the initial breeding plan of a Geodude, Brock could do it himself.
He couldn't figure it out, he really couldn't figure it out.
He didn't understand the meaning of Brock's action until he walked into the Hunter Center and started preparing to accept a mission.
If he couldn't figure it out, he wouldn't think about it anymore. As a commoner, there was nothing worth others scheming against him for, and he hadn't exposed Combusken's Potential or Zero.
It wasn't a big deal. It seemed to be Brock's own idea.
It was better to accept missions and earn money first.
Tetsuya scrolled through the screen, quickly scanning several missions, and casually selected a C-rank Mission, about to leave.
C-rank Missions available: Two.
Wasn't I a Rank C Bounty Hunter? How can I accept three missions of the same rank?
He checked the backend. Behind his personal information, it was marked with a few words: Rank C (Authority increased by one level).
Is this another benefit of the advanced treatment? This is really good.
Tetsuya sighed. The Joy Family was truly involved in all aspects. This increase in treatment was really powerful.
He re-accepted the two good C-rank Missions he had filtered out and headed towards Mt. Moon.
Mt. Moon, the place where meteors fell, is said to be inhabited by Clefairy.
Due to years of mining and the use of various Pokemon's Dig moves, the internal structure of Mt. Moon is extremely complex, and Trainers often get lost within.
Despite this, drawn by the Moon Stone, fossils, and a wide variety of Pokemon like Clefairy, Nidorino, and Nidorina, large numbers of Trainers continue to explore the interior.
Tetsuya walked through the dark, damp cave, illuminating the path with his flashlight.
This was his third hour inside Mt. Moon, and he had long since strayed from the official routes provided by the Alliance.
He let Combusken deal with another Geodude he had accidentally stepped on.
Pokemon made entirely of rock like this had no valuable materials whatsoever.
Yet, they loved lying around in caves, and in the darkness, if you weren't careful, you'd step on them thinking they were just ordinary rocks.
He had probably stepped on seven or eight of them by now, Tetsuya calculated idly.
But there shouldn't be any more further down. He activated the environment monitoring function built into his Explorer Suit. The humidity level here was no longer within the range that Geodude preferred.
However, he estimated he was very close to his target.
He took out a Drone from his backpack and carefully controlled it to fly deeper into the cave.
The Night Vision Camera continuously scanned every corner, while the man and his Pokemon followed far behind.
Soon, as they went deeper, the Drone scanned the target.
He had the Drone automatically attach itself to the rock wall above, and Tetsuya directed Combusken to approach.
"Use the weakest Flamethrower possible on those two Paras. Don't burn them to ashes."
Combusken nodded and cautiously sprayed a puff of flame towards the corner of the cave.
The firelight illuminated the dim, damp cave, revealing the exposed roots of a large tree in the corner.
Two Paras and a Parasect were gathered around, feeding on the tree roots.
This was precisely the target of his current mission.
The two Paras were hit by the flames and immediately fainted.
"Not bad, I encountered two mission targets together on the first try. I thought I wouldn't find the Parasect at first."
Tetsuya felt that his luck had indeed improved recently. He casually activated the Gas Mask on his Explorer Suit.
He commanded, "Don't get close to that Parasect. First, use Growl to provoke it and make it release its Spores."
Combusken nodded and let out a loud Growl, causing the Parasect to tremble and retreat a few steps at first.
Then, the Parasect seemed to be completely enraged, and the mushrooms on its back furiously sprayed Spores.
Looking at the flying Spores, Tetsuya felt a headache coming on for a moment.
