Alex, who was expecting a fight between the Ariados group and Pidgeotto, was disappointed when he saw the two groups seemingly ignoring each other and didn't start attacking each other.

He understood why the Ariados group ignores the Pidgeotto group. In this area, there is an elite Pokemon that is of the same species as this group of Pidgeotto, so it makes sense that this group of Ariados does not want to accidentally provoke a strong elite Pokemon, but he doesn't understand why the Pidgeotto group doesn't want to fight. ​​

"Hmm, maybe because Ariados is a Poison-Type Pokemon is a reason why this group of Pidgeotto doesn't want to fight?"

Alex watched wordlessly as the group of Ariados wrapped their dead prey in cocoons. This scene reminds him of normal spiders who even wrap their prey alive in cocoons. After seeing the team fighting ability of this group of Ariados, there is no way he wants to fight this group. he showed Crobat a signal.

5 hours later

Alex who walked through this forest saw a lot of Pokemon. Most of the Pokemon were weak and Bug or Grass Pokemon that you can find elsewhere. Although he sometimes encountered relatively strong Pokemon, they were quickly defeated by his Pokemon.

Fortunately, Alex also finds a small group of 3 Eevee. But when he saw the potential of this group he was very disappointed. 1 Bronze Eevee and 2 Deep Bronze Eevee, was really not good.

Although the potential was bad, one other thing was very troubling about these Pokémon. Each of these 3 Eevee was very cowardly and ran away immediately if there was another pokemon insight. It was even more visible when Alex surrounded the 3 Eevee and blocked their escape route.

The 3 Eevee showed no will to fight when they were surrounded by Alex. They only showed very anxious expressions and no signs of wanting to fight to defend themselves. One of these Eevee even started crying as Alex and his Pokemon got closer.

Alex who had seen this cowardice had enough. He walked away wordlessly with his Pokemon and made these cowards run away. As soon as Alex and his Pokemon went away, the three Eevee ran like their lives were at stake.

"Is that a joke? Is it just these three Eevee or does the whole species have such a personality?"

Alex suddenly looked at his TRH device and saw that he had received a message from Professor Waelhder.

The message said "Alex, call me back"

Alex looked a bit confused when he received such a message from the professor. Although Alex and the professor had a good chat after the tournament, He didn't hear from the professor after the tournament.

After a few seconds, Alex called the professor.

"Hello, this is Professor Wälhder speaking"

"Hey Professor Wälhder, this is Alex."

"Ahh, Alex good that you call back. I have one thing I want to talk to you about. Do you have a few minutes?"

"sure, Professor Wälhder. what's wrong?"

"Ohh no there is nothing wrong. I just wanted to invite you to an auction."

"An auction? You don't mean the big auction that the Alliance holds for its members?"

"Yes, exactly this event. Are you interested in participating?"

Alex heard about the big Alliance auctions. These auctions not only auction rare Pokemon but also very rare Pokemon items that you normally cannot buy. Unfortunately, you have to be a high member of the Alliance to receive an invitation, so most trainers cannot attend such auctions.

"Professor, that sounds great, but am I allowed to take part in it?"

"haha, Alex you may not know that but normally we always invite the top 3 of the Kanto Rookie tournament."

Alex who heard this heard a word that sounds a bit abnormal in this sentence. "normally" This word sounds normal as long as you don't think about why sometimes the top 3 is not invited.

"That sounds great Professor Wälhder. When does the auction start?"

"Celadon City in 30 days at 4:00 pm. I will show you the exact location when you are in town"

"Ok Professor. I'll be there in 30 days. Goodbye"

"Goodbye Alex"

Alex, who thought about the course of the conversation, was wondering if this might be a trap from the Alliance to catch him. Although he wasn't particularly suspicious of this conversation, he thought there was a possibility that it really was a trap for him.

"If it's really a trap, the Alliance should know that I'm a team rocket member, which is really unlikely. Can it really be a trap?"

"hmm maybe I'm just too suspicious"

"But I should still inform me "

Alex called Lisa after a few seconds.

Although he thinks it is unlikely that it is really a trap, he wants to hear the opinion of a high person in Team Rocket to play it safe.

3 minutes later.

Alex, who just finished talking to Lisa, was convinced that it is very likely not a trap. Lisa, who was able to confirm that the Alliance really invited the top 3 rookies from the tournament every year and had never used this event as a trap, could bring Alex a calm conscience about this auction.
