Bab 131: 131. Project R
Ash made a decisive request and asked for a Dratini.
Dratini is exactly what the Dragonite in front of me looks like before it evolves. A Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon like them is very difficult to meet in the wild.
Of course Ash had to seize such a good opportunity. He had already taken the opportunity to subdue a powerful Tyranitar, and now he wanted to subdue Kanto's Pseudo-Legendary!
This matter was definitely within Lance's ability, and it would not be too hard for him. He immediately agreed to it, and when Ash and his party arrive in Blackthorn City, they could go to Dragon's Den and pick a Dratini by themselves! There is a lot of Dratini living there! The best Dratinis are there, waiting for their fated Trainer!
"Thank you so much!" When Ash gets his Dratini in Blackthorn City, the location of the last Badge, Ash will definitely take it with him to the next region for training.
"You're welcome, Ash. I'll send your Pokémon Investigator Badge and ID to the Pokémon Center in Mahogany Town. I'll have to trouble you again in the future! As I said before, The Alliance will reward you based on your contribution. Professor Oak is the one that kill keep an eye on your progress!"
Lance said with a smile, of course he became an Investigator for the sake of the Pokémon's itself, but The Alliance also knows that it cannot do things based on just passion alone, so they reward the people that deserves it, and they definitely are not cheap with it.
This is why Lance, a member of the Kanto Elite Four and the Johto Champion, agreed to all of this.
All in all, this has no real impact on Ash's journey, it is just a matter of title. He just has to help The Alliance when he is net there. His journey is still just a journey, and the bumpy road is still something he has to overcome. It's just that his Journey will be more convenient and he can get more support from The Alliance.
He can also get a Dratini for himself, that's the real thing he wants!
After talking and inviting Ash to the Pokémon G-Men, Lance's expression darkened, "Ash, we have received information that Team Rocket may be conducting some kind of large experiment at the Lake of Rage. Look at the current situation, that red Gyarados may be hiding many secrets of Team Rocket!"
Ash nodded to what Lance said, "Otherwise, that big guy just now wouldn't be so nervous after seeing us. He must have been here to the place and eliminate everyone that comes near here!"
"Mr. Lance, do you have any plans for them right now?" Brock asked in a small voice. What they should do now is to cooperate with Lance and provide him with all the support they can give out.
He nodded, "I have found out Team Rocket's secret base and am preparing to sneak in by disguising myself to find out what kind of experiments Team Rocket has been doing in this area!"
This is Lance's usual method, he is an expert at disguising himself and getting the necessary information, and it's more reliable than many of the other methods.
"If you want to sneak in by disguising yourself..." After hearing this plan, Ash grinned, "Team Rocket, come out quickly. I need your guys!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Trio of Team Rocket, who were so hungry that their hands and feet were weak, walked out of the bushes like zombies.
"Listen brat, we are not your subordinates, meow!" Meowth looked indignant to Ash's words.
Ash just ignored what he said, pointed at Lance and said with a smile, "This guy here is a real Pokémon Investigator. He can really arrest you in seconds right now."
Molly pinched the Wobbuffet that suddenly jumped out, "Big Brother has also become a real Pokémon investigator!"
Looking at this weird trio and the non-standard Rockets uniforms they were wearing, Lance was also very confused to see them, "Ash, who are these three people?"
Upon hearing this, the trio immediately became energetic from their dead self!
"Since you are sincere in asking the question!"
"We will tell you out of mercy!"
"Enough!"
Ash shouted to stop their self-pleasure, "Now you sneak into Team Rocket's secret laboratory. You are members of Team Rocket yourself. If you find out what is going on here, report it immediately. Do you understand what I said?"
"Yes sir!"
"Wobbbbuuuffettt!"
These three were really obedient to him and immediately headed towards Team Rocket's base that Ash pointed out. They responded flexibly and swaggered into the base.
Taking advantage of the opportunity while they were being interrogated, Lance also put on a standard Rockets uniform and sneaked inside the base. He couldn't help but laugh when he saw the trio talking nonsense about how they could do anything as long as they had enough to eat.
Ash's subordinates were really thoughtful of him!
It just so happened that the Rockets here were short of manpower, so the trio was successfully able to go inside without too much complication.
They were also given a good meal because they looked like a zombie.
They felt that their lives were complete. "Not only could we have a good meal, but we could also participate in the formal combat plan. We finally started to move forward towards our promotion."
"On the right path to Team Rocket!"
There was no mental preparation for being treated as cannon fodder in their head.
"After you've eaten, it's time to begin your work!" The big moron in Ash's words, Tyson, the captain of the plan execution unit, came over with a man with a creepy smile.
"No problem, we will work hard, meow!"
"By the way, who is that person standing behind you?"
Tyson didn't care about the Rookie Trio in front of him at all, and said casually, "You don't know who he is? Professor Sebastian here is the person in charge of Project R!"
"Project R, what is that?" They had been hearing him talk about Project R before, and they were also curious to know so they could report it to Ash.
"This Project R is the revolutionary plan that our team are the most proud of!" Professor Sebastian showed off in a gloomy voice.
All the "Professors" belonging to Team Rocket are virtuous and believe that their projects are the most proud and revolutionary for humankind.
"You made it very clear, but I'm still confused about what we are supposed to do!" James summed it up very succinctly, "So, what is the plan we have to follow?"
"In the Lake of Rage, there is a red Gyarados lurking deep. I want you to catch it! It is an indispensable experimental material for Project R. You must capture that at all cost."
"Can I ask this, what are you going to do with that red Gyarados?" James asked tentatively.
"I'll just tell you some of the contents of Project R!"
Professor Sebastian doesn't mind telling these cannon fodders about Project R at all. Such a great plan should receive more praise from more people!
"Project R is Team Rocket's great plan to control the evolution of a Pokémon. That red Gyarados is the ironclad proof that our sound wave evolution we developed was a success!
That's it. Professor Sebastian looked at the trio of cannon fodder and was unwilling to say anything more, but this information was enough for both Ash and Lance!
"Evolution by radio waves?" Ash murmured solemnly.
"Ash, that is to say, that red Gyarados evolved under the action of Team Rocket's evolution-promoting radio wave?" Brock thought of the first point, and blamed them for being so cruel!
"Yes, evolution is the most vulnerability moment of a Pokémon. It is a great initiative of God itself, but Team Rocket actually wants to artificially interfere with this, and their ambition to be superior to God will one day be the reason of their complete destruction."
Ash gritted his teeth and said, "Another reason to why I call him a big fool!"
"That's right, he is a big dummy!" Molly probably still doesn't fully understand what Ash means but still goes with the flow.
