A random pokemon journey

Making plans



Making plans

I could understand the poor guys confusion as I looked like many things but a pill master was definitely not amongst that list. From what I had gathered off the internet most pill masters were either scrawny unkempt individuals or old folks who had been doing it for a long time. This was obviously a stereotype but it did turn out true more times than not apparently. I did not fall into this stereotype and it clearly threw the clerk off. Still the guy was professional and rang me up anyways and waited for me to dig out the appropriate amount of money.-

After I purchased the equipment I carefully packed it away in my bag with a frown as I noticed that the main space of my bag was getting full. 'I need to get a larger bag soon since I am clearly hoarding a large amount of random junk. That or I can put some of this shit in the PC box and hope I don't need it when I'm miles away from another PC.' I think with a sigh as I leave the store. The worst part is I can think of a few scenarios where that might actually prove true and I would feel regret for the stuff I stored away.-

'Bigger bag it is then , what a pain in the ass.' I determined with a groan and pulled out my pokenav to price check trainer bags. I will never get over the strangeness of this world sometimes as when i pulled it up I almost immediately found a bag that had a small houses worth of space including separate pockets with their own expanded spaces. The price for something so stupidly high tech was a measly fifty thousand poke and is customizable.-

In comparison a single grade five water stone like those I had could cover that cost seventy times at market price which was much lower than I could sell such a stone on auction for. Hell I only needed to do five of the well paying jobs like the one I got for capturing that Vulpix to pay for the bag. 'Guess I should go see what jobs are available tomorrow while Gaia and Vulcan are training.' I decided as I headed to the gym to meet up with Melissa. I don't think I need to explain what happened after we got back to her place for the day.-

There is just something about waking up after a night of sex that just leaves a man feeling energized and refreshed. I cooked Melissa breakfast before I left the house and headed over to the training area to drop off Gaia and Vulcan before I went to the center to look over the jobs there. Thanks to the trainer forums that I had access to as a registered trainer I knew that jobs to catch pokemon are always abundant at the first two months of league season before dropping off sharply on the third.-

It was fairly well explained that those missions were a cut throat type deal in the cities like Rustboro as other trainers will try and poach the jobs if they can or even complete the capture and sabotage anyone else possibly on the same job. I could understand why too as they were likely using the generous payment to keep themselves as a trainer. Upkeep on pokemon was very expensive if you weren't someone with a supporting skillset like pill mastery or alchemy. If you had one though and could get a league certification then it was entirely doable to support an entire team of mons.-

The requirement to get a certification however was to create a stable supplement for each pokemon type in from of judges. Each supplement also needed to be grade two at minimum which meant you actually had to know what you were doing in the field to get a certification. I may have the skill itself from the system but I was a complete novice in the creation of pills and needed practice before I can try and get the certification. So until that point I needed to still take jobs from the centers.-

After finishing my own workout I left Gaia and Vulcan in the training area and headed towards the middle of the city that had the center and the pokemart like in the game. It was strange how many details the games got right despite the scale and form of reality being way bigger and more detailed. Still at least it gave me a general understanding of the main cities in this regions layouts which was helpful in this case. Unlike the center of Iron town Rustboro pokecenter was a huge building that was clearly built to house and care for many more people than the one in Iron town.-

The building also had a steady stream of foot traffic as well that reminded me a bit of the way blood flowed into and out of the heart. This was an apt way to look at it as well since for most trainers the pokecenter was indeed a vital resource that could spell life or death both figuratively and VERY literally. For me though I was one skill and some intense practice away from not needing the place at all. Money? Alchemy. Healing? Aura , the healing ability and the medical skill. I was very close to be set up to never need to go to a pokecenter again.-

Well so long as I personally don't need medical treatment that is but I try to avoid getting in situations where that is common. Anyways I followed the ingoing traffic for the center and noticed something interesting after I entered the building. Unlike the one in Iron town this pokecenter actually had different floors for the services they offered. The first two floors were for medical treatments , the third and fourth floors were for jobs and the fifth to seventh floors were the hosing areas.-

I crammed into an elevator with around twelve other people and pressed the button for my destination on the third floor. Ignoring the discomfort of the other passengers in the elevator I waited until we arrived before getting off. Like you would expect the floor was bustling with people and had the sort of noisiness to it that came from many voices speaking at once. I walked over to the nearest available clerk and sat down in front of their desk calmly. The pink haired man looked nervous after he registered who I was since word of things like what I went through likely traveled to every member of the clan.-

"I am here to look at the jobs available." I said honestly. The man sighed in relief "I see , please give me a moment to bring them up." he says while turning to type something out on his computers keyboard and click the mouse a couple times. "This is what our most recent update to the list has available." the man said while turning the computer screen to me and handing over the mouse so I can scroll through it.
