Capítulo 1026: Distribution Departement
After finalizing the allocation of the Innovation Potion among the various regional Leagues during the discussion meeting, the next steps involved signing agreements and following various procedures to solidify the matter. There were numerous detailed tasks that needed attention.
The day after the second round of discussions, Yuga, in the presence of League representatives, signed contracts with the various League branches, pledging to provide them with a fixed amount of Innovation Potion every month.
The signing process was again somewhat unpleasant. Besides the Headquarters and Alola representatives, most other regional League branches expressed some dissatisfaction, feeling neglected by the Headquarters in their treatment.
Despite this, the matter was set in stone, and everyone could only grumble about it without further recourse.
Following the contract signing, the League representatives hurriedly left Verdanturf Town, carrying their respective contracts, and didn't linger much in the town. Even the representatives from the Hoenn League, including Steven and his companions, departed in a hurry.
As for the Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon promised by the Headquarters and Alola, it would be sent to the YoYo Day Care after the first batch of Innovation Potion reached the Headquarters and Alola.
In reality, the YoYo Day Care benefited the most from this negotiation. Since Yuga belonged to the Hoenn League, they received an increased allocation of the Innovation Potion without having to spend a single penny. This made them appear quite esteemed in front of the other League branches and the Headquarters.
Yuga was a native of Hoenn, not only apprenticed under Mr. Kuni'o, a prominent figure in Hoenn but also served as a Gym Leader in the Hoenn League. Other Leagues found it impossible to establish any relationship with Yuga due to his connections, reluctantly acknowledging their own League's shortcomings. This was just because their League members were not competitive enough.
It could be said that due to the Innovation Potion matter, Yuga obtained a kind of 'get out of jail free' card. As long as he didn't commit any significant ethical mistakes, the Hoenn League would largely support Yuga in the future.
This was a form of privilege.
The birth of the Innovation Potion promised a continuous output of high potential Pokémon resources for the League, which was vital for the future development of the League's military force. The significance of this was self-evident.
Also because, the importance of this event was so big that's why Mr. Kuni'o had previously suggested Yuga to cooperate with the League.
This business could only sustain itself for the long term with the backing of the League. Otherwise, no one could guarantee when the Innovation Potion might attract unwanted attention.
Once the representatives of the League branches departed, Yuga immediately went to the Pokémon Center and found Joyka.
Upon seeing Yuga, Joyka smiled and said, "What brings this busy bee here?"
During the time of the press conference and the discussion meeting, Yuga had been extremely occupied and hadn't visited the Pokémon Center even once. It was no wonder that Joyka appeared surprised when Yuga finally showed up.
"I came here today to discuss something with you," Yuga said in a low voice to Joyka, "I want to make a deal with the Joy family."
Upon hearing this, Joyka glanced surprisedly at Yuga and then whispered, "Come with me." She led Yuga into the studio behind the Pokémon Center.
"Tell me, what exactly is it?" Joyka inquired, puzzled.
"I want to exchange some Chansey with the Joy family," Yuga said after a brief moment of contemplation.
The reason Yuga wanted to exchange Chansey with the Joy family was related to the production of the Innovation Potion.
The significance of the Innovation Potion was quiet big; each month, various League branches required a significant quantity of it. Yuga couldn't solely rely on Malamar and two Meowstic to produce the potion—they didn't have enough time and were overwhelmed. Moreover, hiring external individuals to craft the potion was not safe.
This is why he considered obtaining Chansey from the Joy family, especially ones that were trained in medicinal and potion-making knowledge. With a little additional training, they could assist in the production of the Innovation Potion.
Having enough Chansey would allow Yuga to create a large quantity of the Innovation Potion in a short time.
Through Nurturing by three Malamar, the Haunted Manasion Sub-Ecopark was now home to a vast number of faintly glowing organisms, providing sufficient materials for the production of the Innovation Potion.
"Are you looking to exchange our family's Chansey?" Joyka widened her eyes slightly. "What are you offering in return? Our family's Chansey are never traded to outsiders."
The Chansey from the Joy family were highly valued and hardly ever exchanged outside, except for special circumstances. Yuga's request for an exchange was nearly impossible.
"Innovation Potion!" Yuga pronounced each word with emphasis.
Joyka fell silent immediately upon hearing these words.
If anything else might not be tradable for the Joy family's Chansey, the Innovation Potion, on the other hand, was definitely possible. Those who were observant knew the power of the Innovation Potion. However, constrained by the League, no one dared to reach out to Yuga for it.
Due to the live broadcast of the press conference a few days earlier, the entire Pokémon world now knew about the effectiveness of the Innovation Potion. It was currently the hottest topic, with even ordinary people who weren't trainers aware of its reputation.
"You really want to trade the Innovation Potion for Chansey," Joyka reconfirmed.
"That's right," Yuga nodded firmly.
Joyka took a deep breath and said, "I'll need to contact my family about this; I can't decide on my own."
"Okay, please do it quickly. I'll be waiting for your response," Yuga agreed.
After seeing Yuga off, Joyka immediately called her family, conveying Yuga's proposal to them. Subsequently, the next day, members of the Joy family arrived in Verdanturf Town. Their astonishingly swift arrival demonstrated the family's importance and concern for the Innovation Potion.
Many factions took notice when key members of the Joy family arrived at the YoYo Day Care, knowing the reason for their presence in Verdanturf Town. However, the specifics of their conversation with the Verdanturf Gym Leader were unknown. All that was evident was the Joyful and contented expressions on the faces of the Joy family members when they left the town.
The Joy family found it challenging to refuse Yuga's offer of the Innovation Potion. Soon after their negotiation with Yuga, they sent fifty Chansey, each meticulously trained in medicinal knowledge, to Yuga.
As soon as the Chansey arrived at the YoYo Day Care, Yuga took them to the Haunted Manasion Sub-Ecopark to undergo training under the guidance of the two Meowstic. The goal was to make them capable of independently producing high potential Innovation Potion at the earliest.
Regarding the Chansey initially present in the Ecopark—such as Beauty, Roundy, Bally, Lovey, and Chubby—Yuga didn't involve them in the production of the Innovation Potion. Their duties in caring for other Pokémon already kept them quite occupied, and adding further tasks wasn't feasible.
Additionally, their caretaking responsibilities were handled adeptly, so there was no need to reassign their roles.
Apart from the Chansey, Yuga also sent several Gardevoir and Gallade from the main Ecopark, along with the Mr. Mime, to the Haunted Manasion Sub-Ecopark to serve as assistants to the Chansey. Being Psychic-type Pokémon, they were quite capable of handling various intricate tasks and served as excellent aides.
Although most of the tasks that Psychic-type Pokémon could perform could also be executed by Ghost-type Pokémon, the latter's personalities were generally not as composed, making them unsuitable for the task of potion-making. Hence, despite the abundance of Ghost-type Pokémon in the Haunted Manasion Sub-Ecopark, Yuga didn't opt for their involvement.
With a sufficient team in place for Innovation Potion production, Yuga finally felt relieved.
While Yuga was intensively preparing for the Innovation Potion production, the Mayor Ishida in collaboration with the League, established a special department in Verdanturf Town specifically responsible for delivering the monthly quotas of the Innovation Potion to various regions.
This department was called the Distribution Department.
Given the vital nature of transporting the Innovation Potion, all the employees in the Distribution Department were League elites, each possessing commendable abilities.
The Personnel in the Distribution Department were sourced from various League branches, including the headquarters, each assigned to transport the Innovation Potion to their respective League branches without overlapping responsibilities.
However, the head of the Distribution Department is a remarkable figure, hailed from the Jenny family. Her name was Nan Jenny, and her status was quite significant. She was to be addressed respectfully as "Aunt Nan."
Nan Jenny wasn't just an ordinary Officer Jenny. Her position within the Jenny family was equivalent to that of Joyna in the Joy family. To ensure the security of the Distribution Department, the League went to great lengths.
Moving forward, Nan Jenny will be stationed in Verdanturf Town and may even serve as an escort for the Innovation Potion deliveries. Simultaneously, she's also the overall captain of the escort team.
Apart from certain administrative roles, the most crucial personnel in the Distribution Department are the escort teams. They serve as the core individuals responsible for escorting the potion to the League branches, constituting the primary armed force.
The office of the Distribution Department is located not far from the YoYo Day Care, across the street—a tall, luxurious building.
Originally, it used to be a jewelry company that unfortunately went bankrupt long ago. Now, the entire building has been taken over and refurbished by the League, giving it an entirely different grandeur. The League even provided them with several high-grade aircraft.
Though these aircraft might seem unassuming, they are built using the latest League technology, ensuring top-notch safety.
A month later, the preparation and construction of the Distribution Department were entirely completed, and the respective staff was in place.
Three months later, the first batch of the Innovation Potion was produced. The Distribution Department immediately dispatched personnel to collect the potion, striving to deliver it to the League branches before the New Year.
There were a total of six individuals from the Distribution Department who came to collect the potion from the Verdanturf Gym. Yuga was slightly surprised to see the leader among them, someone he knew.
"Hello, Gym Leader Shimizu. We are the escort team from the Distribution Department, here to collect the Innovation Potion according to the agreement," the team leader presented their identification to Yuga to confirm their identity.
During this period, Yuga had only seen the head of the Distribution Department, Nan Jenny, and had mostly interacted with her for coordination. Thus, he was not familiar with the other members of the Distribution Department and was meeting the escort team for the first time.
The escort team specialized in the protection and transport of the potion, dressed in uniform black attire, which imparted a serious demeanor.
"Suzuye? Weren't you Coordinartor? How come you're now part of the Distribution Department serving as part of the escort team?" Yuga asked curiously.
Hearing Yuga call out their name, Suzuye was somewhat surprised: "I didn't expect Gym Leader Shimizu to remember me."
Yuga smiled slightly and said, "Of course, I've seen Miss Suzuye's performances several times, leaving a deep impression on me. And, didn't Miss Suzuye buy incense from our YoYo Day Care?"
Suzuye didn't expect Yuga to remember such a small thing and couldn't help but smile. "It's truly an honor to be remembered by Gym Leader Shimizu." Yuga's current status within the League was a far cry from before, and not many had the opportunity to be remembered by him.
"Follow me, everyone," Yuga said, leading the escort team towards the gym's warehouse where the prepared Innovation Potion was stored.
"Isn't Miss Suzuye no longer a Coordinator?" Yuga casually chatted with Suzuye as they walked. He remembered that Suzuye had received considerable attention from the Pokémon Contest officials.
Suzuye jokingly replied, "Gym Leader Shimizu, don't you know? The escort team's work is in high demand. Many League members want to work here, and obtaining this position wasn't easy."
The job of the escort team was indeed highly sought after. Not only did the League branches offer high wages to ensure the safety of the Innovation Potion, but there was also a distinct advantage to being closer to influential positions.
Yuga was amused by Suzuye's playful tone. "I wasn't aware of that. But Miss Suzuye doesn't seem like someone who'd give up on her dream just for these benefits."
Suzuye chuckled, "Looks like Gym Leader Shimizu has a good eye. Indeed, the perks of the escort team are only a part of why I'm here. I haven't given up on my dream of being a Coordinator. It's just that losing to Robert repeatedly made me feel embarrassed, so I'm planning to lay low for a while, and the escort team seems like a good place. But from what I know, Gym Leader Shimizu and Robert seem to be good friends, right?"
Yuga teased, "What's this? Miss Suzuye planning to take it out on me?"
Suzuye shook her head, "Not at all. Gym Leader Shimizu can help convey a few words to Robert for me. I won't lose next time we compete."
Yuga hadn't expected Suzuye to be so competitive and couldn't help but find it amusing. "I'll pass your message along to him."
Shortly, the group arrived at the gym's warehouse. Yuga opened the door, and the escort team members directed their Pokémon to move crates of the Innovation Potion out of the warehouse and onto the vehicles parked outside the gym.
These vehicles would transport the potion to the Distribution Department's building, and from there, aircraft stationed on the building's rooftop would further distribute the potion to various League branches.
"That's all for you," Yuga said to the escort team members.
"Don't worry, Gym Leader Shimizu!"
Watching the vehicles drive away, Yuga sighed. He hoped the potion would safely reach the League branches.
However, the day after the potion left Verdanturf Town, Yuga received news that the escort team transporting the potion had encountered an incident.
