"100,000 Alliance coins."
Professor Oak offered Ash 10 months of worth travel expenses.
However, Ash has no intention of letting go, as he can earn a little more.
In this way, Delia doesn't have to work hard for giving him travel expenses for his journey.
"200,000 Alliance coins."
Professor Oak made another offer as Ash continued to persist.
The mythical beast is called a legendary Pokémon because of its rarity.
In addition, it rarely appears in front of people, so the research data is very limited.
If you can get Ho-Oh's photo, the 200,000 Alliance coins will be nothing.
Despite the considerable amount of research funding provided by Alliance each year, it is not a frivolous expenditure.
Additionally, the Oak family possesses a limited quantity of savings.
"make a deal."
Ash can get more allaince coins from Professor Oak if he still doesn't to give in.
However if you do that, it will appear that you are not very good at being a human being.
After all, Professor Oak generously provided the Laboratory's backyard free of charge to enable Trainers from Pallet Town to raise and take good of their Pokémon.
As a human being, you must know how to be content.
200,000 Alliance coins can last for a considerable period if you avoid overspending.
It's true that 200,000 Alliance coins won't suffice if you intend to purchase Pokémon supplies.
The dependence of this aspect is also reliant on system tasks.
Completing the first mission would earn you a Pikachu exclusive Light Ball prop that is valued at no less than 500,000 Alliance coins in other regions.
The limited potential of the typical Pikachu species strength is why it's not commonly utilized as a primary Pokémon breeder.
Practical Pokémon props will increase in value.
Rich people hold the utmost importance in Alliance.
Once a consensus was reached, Ash proceeded to email the photos of Ho-Oh.
"I have sent it, Professor Oak. When the time is right, my Pokédex will be credited with the corresponding payment."
Apart from identifying details about Pokémon, the Pokédex encompasses a range of features like recognition and storage cards.
Despite not being as handy as contemporary cellphones, it remains rather useful in the Pokémon world.
Only Trainers who have paid significant taxes and fees to Alliance officials are eligible to obtain the Earl Dervish Pokémon that has been issued by the Alliance.
This thing is not possessed by an ordinary insect-catching boy or a feral Trainer.
"Please don't worry, Ash."
Professor Oak wholeheartedly agreed and promptly hung up the phone with lightning speed. He appeared rushed, undoubtedly eager to commence examining Ho-Oh's photographs.
Mythical beasts remain largely unknown to humans, and even a photograph of these creatures holds immense research significance.
"Ash, I have already completed check-in. Have you made the call?"
Misty approached Ash as soon as she hung up the phone.
As she spoke, she reached out and handed over Ash's Pokémon Pokédex.
Just at this moment a massage came showing that 200,000 Alliance coins has been credited to his Pokedex.
"One, ten, one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand, thats a lot of money Ash did you rob a bank or something.
With surprise on her face, Misty counted on her fingers.
"I think your idea is very dangerous. It is necessary to report it to Officer Jenny."
Ash's eyes rolled in speechless exasperation.
"Do you recall the picture I captured of Flash, aka "Fearow," in the afternoon? Well, exchanged it out with this money."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Misty squatting on the ground in front of him, looking like a silent stone statue.
She also kept muttering about Flash Fearow and the number 200,000.
Misty is not considered wealthy ever since she left her home. If she was, according to the original storyline, she wouldn't have pursued Ash for a bike and wouldn't have joined him as his traveling partner.
Ash's revelation that Flash Fearow was actually Ho-Oh finally ended Misty's long-lasting frustration.
However, She still felt very disappointed.
Ash's neck was locked by a set of jade arms, as they leapt onto his back and exerted pressure.
She kept shouting that she wanted Ash to treat her, otherwise she won't let go of him.
Despite this, She ultimately chose not to dine out and instead enjoyed a complimentary meal at the Pokémon Center.
She only took a cheap cone for a fee as a token gift, which was treated as a treat to Ash.
"Making a living is surprisingly easy!"
Ash thought this As he watched Misty sitting in front of him as she lowered her head and kept licking the cone.
Misty's position as the fourth young lady of the Cerulean Gym places her family firmly in the upper-class category within Kanto Region.
With the exception of her arrogance, there are no negative traits in her character.
What's more, being tsundere is also kind of cute.
In his past life, she was considered less popular among the female protagonists. The main reason was due to the somewhat rough drawing style of the earlier chapters.
Misty's appearance is generally pleasing in reality, except for the Joy family and the Jenny family in Ash's memory.
Only Serena and his mother Delia, whom he met at summer camp when he was young, can compete with her.
"Hey Ash, why are you staring at me?"
As if she noticed something, Misty raised her head and asked.
"You have cream on your face."
Ash pointed at the area around Misty's lips.
Due to the small size of the mouth and relatively large cone, there are several soft milky white creams dispersed around the delicate lips.
"I see..."
Misty relaxedly extended the end of her pink tongue, circled it over her lips and tidily removed every bit of cream.
*coughs*
His head turned as he coughed.
Misty gave a mildly distrustful expression, sensing that something amiss was the matter with Ash standing before her; however, she couldn't identify what it could be.
Has everyone been licked clean?
Woo~woo~woo
At this time, a shrill alarm went off in the entire restaurant.
" Has a foreign enemy breached the security of the Pokemon Center? Could it be possible that a criminal gang has been able to penetrate Virdian City's defenses in recent times?"
Suddenly, Misty stood up while holding the unfinished cone in her hand.
[Ding, trigger the system mission: Defeat the Team Rocket trio in an impressive way and protect the Pokémon Center from destruction.
Mission reward: Potential Enhancement Medal (Iron). After using a Pokémon with a potential below Elite, its potential will increase by one level.
Joy family reputation +1]
"Misty, we should go help them."
Without much delay, Ash accepted the triggered system task.
Sure enough, the Rocket trio are good people. They came to give themselves not only experience, but also magical props.
In order to repay them, you must treat them well later!
Arriving at the Pokémon Center lobby, there was thick smoke billowing in the lobby, with a suffocating sensation.
Multiple silhouettes could be seen amidst the dense smoke.
"To prevent the world from destruction."
"That's right, meowth."
The Rockets trio made their debut official following a common and awkward opening remark.
Koffing and Ekans were standing next to them.
Nurse Joy and Misty are a little scared. As the largest evil organization in the Kanto Region, Team Rocket has a notorious reputation.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Team Rocket. Now we are in big trouble!
