looking as money from the reward for dealing the brothels come in, Eli converted it into money via the GS, whcich had the option of making a transfer from GP points to Pokedollars, which was the currency widely known in this world.
900,000 pokedollars was the combination of most GP points, and Eli saw the money transfer to his bank.
since he was out of the galactic base, he couldn't order materials without going to a psychical black market, which was dangerous in itself.
Eli had another thought.
he needed a drink.
the sight of his uncle in person knocked him sick, and the confidence he had gained from his strength was slowly fading away, revealing broken pride.
throwing a Pokeball out, energetic purple blood used its gelatin-like body to consume the boy, before making him stand taller.
he looked like a middle-aged man. one that wouldn't be stopped for ID.
he took a long hike from the brothel from here, and now he was standing in an off-license shop, spending some money to buy some whiskey.
no child should drink at his age. however, his mother used to force him to drink her whiskey as her form of entertainment.
looking at the expensive bottle of whiskey, Eli chugged it down without a second thought.
the red mist in his body instantly neutralized the alcohol, causing the boy to groan.
all he had was his DR, his sniper, and some other things. he had a lot of money
"I need a break." Eli groaned as he looked at his Fake ID, which Mr Klaus brought for him.
throwing away the bottle in a bin, Eli wished he was drunk. maybe then he could have a moment of peace of quiet for himself.
he knew what he wanted to do.
first, he needed to think of problems and their solutions.
1. Mobility - solved by mount
2. Betrayal - Team galatic
3. Alliance - Getting tracked down and cornered.
although he groaned at first, Eli quickly pulled himself up from the soft mellow grass and started to walk to a secluded building
knocking on three times and tapping the glass on the door, it automatically opened as the boy jumped down the whole that was in the middle of the small cubed room.
this one was on the entrances to the black market, of which its location wasn't so secret. even people on the internet share where it is and they do that because even the alliance don't have the power to break and crack down a black market that is so rooted down in the core of the heart of sinnoh.
Although some may expect the black market to be a gloomy, dark place, it was actually a well-lit area that could be mistaken for a festival if not for the pokemon in cages been sold to the highest bidder the moment he sold down.
black markets are controlled by their respective team, yes , but the real rulers were the 3 associations found in every black market.
First, the hunters association. Sell pokemon and get money, simple.
Buyers association - Buy anything at a price.
Triad Association - Deals with assassination, missions, medical, training. anything could be seen here.
first, he needed a pokemon to be the amount for him.
a comfortable one at that.
a large building with no windows came to Eli's view as he stared at the intimidating building.
he had gotten ditto to make him a large man whose face was obscured by a fox mask. this was common to hide your identity in the black market , so nobody looked at Eli funny.
walking into the hunters association, Eli went to the self-checkout system.
here, it was basically a shopping centre for pokemon. an online one.
simply Ui , with a search bar and some filters.
Eli searched the name "Tropius" and thousands of results popped up.
indeed, high prices for a high sought pokemon, not only are they a great support pokemon, they are described as one of the most comfortable mount pokemon, with their leafes that can act like pillows and their kind nature.
finding one with silver potential and a good moveset, Eli just brought it.
"That will be 235,000 pokedollars." Eli swiped with his card before the recptonist bowed "Please wait here for a moment."
The machine behind her spewed out a Pokeball, which she handed to Eli and bowed "Thank you for your patronage."
Eli nodded, before walking out of the hunter's assocation and walking to the Buyers assocation.
he needed some new tools.
walking into the building that shared the same design with the hunters guild due to the fact it was owned by the person who owned the hunters assocation, Eli walked in, and once again went on the hanging tablets that let him search up anything.
buying new upgrades for his gun, Eli brought a better suppressor, laser sights, red dot sight and then brought new extensions for his foldable sniper, which can be folded into a suitcase.
a new suppressor. a better optic with thermal sight. a new stock. a new grip.
Eli decided to buy some materials for his pokemon as he brought Beedril some level 30 aradios poison to consume, Bronzor some Metal to make its weight bigger and make it more durable, Hondour got some meat from a Level 35 Zoaroak, Golett got other golett cores to consume and make itself grow bigger and stronger.
Golett had been a key figure in his team due to the fast growth via the purple mist that could make Golett grow faster than the others. its growth had been slowing down as all pokemon did.
after paying for the items, which hadn't been that expensive, Eli quickly got the neatly tied package and left the Buyers assocation.
Several men followed him, their digstugang expression of greed present when looking at the thick package sensible with Eli's increase senses when negative emotions are displayed.
after going through several windy alleyways, Eli calmy waited up on the pole, wanting to ambush them.
just as expected, they came.
Eli pulled something out of his coat pocket, before counting in his head and throwing it.
a blinding light was seen as the flash grenade exploded, but Eli had looked away.
Unfortauntley for them, they didn't.
Eli jumped down from the pole, both DR being displayed as he pointed them both at 2 of the 6 gangsters head, and pulling the trigger.
2 heads flew off their bodies as the other one's recovered from the shock and threw out their pokeballs.
they were strong pokemon, reaching around level 25. he couldn't deal with them currently.
Eli dashed by using the countless poles and lights as leverage for his foot as he dashed away from the koffing and Arbok chasing after him.
after turning several corners and losing them, Eli sighed before turning his head around.
he shouldn't do stupid shit like that. he's lucky he didn't get injured.
looking at the exit of the black market, of which the sunlight priced through the thick blankets of sheets, Eli walked through.
