Chapter 34 - Pokemon Master Of Tactics: 34
Alex thought "Toxic, Sludge Bomb, and Facade are important moves that Golbat has to learn. Giga Impact would be good too, but it's a lot too expensive. It's stupid to spend almost all of my money on Fly or Giga Impact. I can do better with this money like buying blood and good bug-type food. I also have to buy a PokemonEgg incubate for Ralts "
Pokemon Eggs are always will be the same Pokemon as their Mother. Because Gardevoir is the mother of The Pokemon Egg, the child automatically becomes a Ralts.
After slow consider, Alex bought:
Protect 1000 TR Points
Toxic 5000 TR Points
Taunt 5000 TR Points
Sludge Bomb 10,000 TR Points
Facade 7500 TR Points
PokemonEgg incubate 1000 TR Points
30 excellent bug-type food 9000 TR Points
30 Tauros blood 9600 TR Points
15 Moomoo Milk 750 TR Points
20 Super Potion 4000 TR Points
20 Energy Root 10000 TR Points
------------------------------------------
Alex had to pay 62,850 TR Points for all these items and only had 7,200 TR Points left.
But for him, increasing his strength faster is more important than his wealth. He does not want to conserve the training items, so he bought the expensive Energy Root to make his training more effective for 10 days.
The 15 Moomoo Milk was for Ralts as soon as it was born. A Pokemon that has just been born usually cannot fight for 10 to 15 days and must be treated like a baby.
For the nutrition of Golbat and Scyther, Alex bought high-quality food to make the body of Golbat and Scyther stronger.
The 20 Super Potion is for when Golbat and Scyther make spare matches and get injured.
After 30 minutes, Alex hears a knock on his door. He opens the door and sees a team of rocket Lackey holding a package in his hand. Alex said the package and closed the door.
The first thing I took was the PokemonEgg incubate and put in the Pokemon Egg. Alex doesn't know when Ralts will hatch, but with the PokemonEgg incubate it is easier for a Pokemon to hatch. Also, the incubate ensures that the egg is healthier.
Alex calls Golbat and Scyther from their Pokeballs and said to them "Golbat, Scyther I bought better food and better training items for the two of you. you will improve your moves here for at least 10 days. Besides, Ralts will probably be born soon so that we will soon be one welcome new member. "
Golbat looks at Alex and said in sign language "Don't worry, I'll instruct our newcomer. As your strongest Pokemon, this is one of my obligations."
Scyther looked at Golbat disapproved and said "Bat. Why are you so proud that you have a short lead. After 10 days I'll beat you with two moves."
Golbat said in sign language "two moves?. Don't joke none of your moves can do me so much harm. But my Wing Attack can probably defeat you with two good hits. It looks like I'm not only stronger, I'm also smarter than you. Haha "
Scyther was completely pissed off and was about to attack Golbat.
Alex saw this and quickly said "Stop Scyther. Don't let Golbat provoke you. You can fight Golbat but not without my permission.
Scyther looked at Alex with a flash of hope.
Alex saw this and said with a smile "Ok Ok. I will officially announce the Alex Pokemon Tournament. After 10 days, all of Alex's Pokemon will compete against each other and determine who is Alex's strongest Pokemon.
The winner receives a secret prize from the organizer.
Scyther said excitedly "did you hear that you Arogante Bat? After 10 days I will completely destroy you. (¬‿¬)"
Golbat said seriously "haha good joke. Did you forget how our last fight ended? Be glad that you still have 10 days before I send you, overgrown insect to the ground. (¬‿¬)"
Alex saw both of them have the same expression on their faces and had to laugh out loud.
After this exchange, Alex used the Tms Toxic, Taunt, Sludge Bomb, and Facade at Golbat.
Alex thought "Which move should I train? Golbat Shadow Ball is almost on the expert rank. So I should definitely train Shadow Ball until he is on the expert rank. After Shadow Ball has reached the expert rank, it will be a lot difficult Its to train this move to the master rank. This time can be enough to train more moves to the expert rank. Which moves would help Golbat fighting style the most? Protect, Taunt, Toxic, Sludge Bomb, Wing Attack, Confuse Ray, and Facade are likely the best move the Golbat currently has. "
Ultrasonic is also strong against many opponents, but the damage this attack inflicts is very weak. Although it may be very strong on the master rank because it can be combined with other attacks. But which attack would not be strong on the master rank?
For Alex, Golbat is a Pokemon that should fight like an assassin. Fast, agile, and deadly. In addition, Golbat should also have good ranged combat moves to defeat his opponent with a hit and run tactic.
Alex thinks the Facade and Protect are not moves that need to be trained to become an Expert rank for now. These moves will probably rarely play a major role in combat. Protect even at the Expert Rank cannot be used more than once every 5 minutes.
Facade is a move that is very strong situationally. But this move is a two-edged sword. Golbat has to be poisoned, paralyzed, or burned for Facade to be useful and that is very dangerous for a Pokemon. This is the real world and not a video game where the Pokemon only takes a little damage per round. In this world, for example, if a Pokemon is poisoned for a long time, it can quickly happen that the Pokemon becomes sick and even takes permanent damage.
Alex also thinks Wing Attack is a move where Golbat shouldn't waste his training time. This move becomes immediately useless when Golbat learns the FLY move. Plus, even later, Crobat Brave Bird can learn which is twice as strong as Wing Attack. He doesn't want the Golbat to waste his training time with a move that quickly becomes useless.
After thinking slowly, Alex decided that these moves are the most important training goals.
Sludge Bomb, Toxic, Confuse Ray, Taunt, and Shadow Ball are the moves where Alex thinks they are most important to Golbat to get stronger quickly. FLY and Giga Impact are Alex's next buying goals.
Although it's a shame that none of these attacks do physical damage, it's not that bad. Golbat has a better Attack than Sp. Atk, but the Sp. Atk is not that much worse than the attack. Attack 90. Sp. Atk 70. Alex prefers to wait for FLY and Giga Impact, than to lets Golbat train a weak physical move.
