Capítulo 159: chapter 39 - View about strategy in the world
Alex can feel a migraine coming from the words of this Sergeant Jamie. His words ignited the flames of wars in most of the people of this 65th Infantry Corps.
They are now way too enthusiastic and it only served to made them over confident about their strength and felt they can overcome the up coming danger easily.
All of these confident people were the new recruits or officers who have never experienced a single tide in the past and are way too confident about their powers.
The power which was impressive for them was pretty much garbage if someone asks Alex.
Alex knew about Sergeant Jamie because he was a rare ghost specialist. He had Gastly, duskull, Sableye and shuppet.
He is a pretty lucky guy to have so many different ghosts because ghosts are expert in hiding and can be difficult to find let alone catch one.
He even have a Haunter which made him an intermediate trainers and a pretty powerful one compared to his similar age counterparts.
He was even regarded as a prodigy for having so many ghosts and reaching intermediate level in his early twenties. This has inflated his ego and made him too confident.
Many of his colleagues even felt he may be able to gain the general of headquarters rank ( from Brigadier general onwards one is regarded as a general of the headquarter and he is regarded as a important person ( VVIP) in many town and cities except for the the cities with the eight main gyms) in the near future.
This is very impressive for a person without any official training and learning about any pokemons. Most of the people in the Pokemon world fall in this category. They aren't many who spend time learning much about the pokemons or they cannot afford to enter a school or educational institutions.
Alex has noticed early on that there aren't many people around in the Pokemon world who would use strategy to win the battle. Many of them just try to use brute Force and destroy their competition.
And even if they use some non attacking moves to gain some edge in their strategy and win more effectively with lesser effort, their plans are too simple and direct.
They don't try to drag the battle or let the enemy follow their own rhythm and then when they have the chance, strike the hammer and eradicate the opponent.
They almost never have a big comprehensive plan to take down the enemy. To combat the enemy, brute Force or type advantage are the only tricks most people use.
As for those who do employ some good strategies, they aren't strong enough and are often crushed by the stronger opponents making the strategies look worthless in front of strength and people don't bother with them.
Even among the elite fours, the smartest one is Agatha and even then she only thinks of a couple of reserve plans and her foresight doesn't exceed more than three or four moves ahead.
Her powers are widely circulated so the chance for her smart attacks aren't much and even if there is a chance she use it, her pokemon's overwhelming strength shadows it making long visioned strategies useless.
It is true that against ultimate strength no strategy is gonna work. It can only be destroyed or torn to shreds in front of such great powers. But for the weak it increase the chance of survival. It is not the top forces but the middle and low level forces who make the population.
Alex himself wasn't much of a strategist but he still like to think of ways to use smart to win with the minimum effort. But he can't always employ these tricks with his pokemons.
Some of his pokemons are too bull-headed and doesn't like plans and similar things. They want a great power battle to show off their strength.
And so Alex has to improvise in his plans and has to create scenarios to make them follow or only guide them enough not to be completely overwhelmed.
With Alex current strength unless a super smart and clever guy makes a plan, no strategy will work. To defeat him multiple people with powerful strength are needed. So Alex sometimes dismiss the importance of a good strategy.
But enough of these, Jamie in front was too overconfident and this may cause death of many of his subordinates and colleagues.
He might be strong in the eyes of these trooper of 65th infantry corp of Kanto, but in the eyes of Alex, he was anything.
He was just a bug to be crushed under his feet. And that's what Alex was currently thinking about when he looked at the overconfident piece of primeape.
Meanwhile, Jamie felt that since the league would send a fourteen - fifteen year old (Alex seems compared to kids of his age due to his training exercise since he was seven years old as well as his aura. He even had a growth spurt and in this time travelling making him look older than he really is) kid to lead them then the Pokemon tides aren't as dangerous and scary as they have been described to them.
He wanted to use this time to garner support for himself and gain higher position in the Corps or at least something above his current position and become a captain of special task force or captain of regimental battle team.
These two are special groups in the corps and held higher power compared to some warrant officers. Even if he couldn't become a warrant officer now, he could at least try to gain position or become a member of these units.
Alex knew that Jamie wanted to fish in troubled waters and gain some powers for himself. Alex also needed to calm their excitement and introduced them to the reality.
He said loud, enough for his voice to overcome the enthusiastic shouts of troops and let them hear it, with the help of Slowking.
" Jamie come to the platform so everyone can see you. I have something to say and don't worry I won't have my second lieutenant and others ambush you and punish you for anything you did." He said all of these without a hint of anger.
Jamie headed for the platform unaware that he had just become a dancing clown for Alex to subdue and get these troops to acknowledge his strength.
