[Breeding House Lake Area]
A Ralts sat beside a group of Psyducks, with a flash of excitement occasionally appearing in her red eyes.
If she remembered correctly, today was the day her trainer would come to take her away.
In her previous life, her psychic power was too strong, causing her to have the same problem as Psyduck.
She often had splitting headaches and couldn't learn any moves.
Although the Ralts species was rare, still no trainer was willing to take her.
After staying in the breeding house for three whole years, finally a trainer named Axel was willing to take her, sparing no effort to raise her into a Kirlia.
From then on, she soared all the way, building a gym with her trainer, participating in competitions, and quickly becoming one of Aurient's Four Kings.
She even used her powerful psychic power to hypnotize countless Team Rocket executives and took them in as her own.
Even then, her potential was still far from being exhausted.
If things had developed normally, the two of them definitely could have become the strongest Fairy-type champions in the world.
But in the end, due to their slow growth in the early stages, they fell under the expansion of the Rainbow Team Rocket.
Thinking of Axel's appearance, the corners of Ralts's mouth lifted slightly, and her little feet stepped on the water's surface a few times.
'Don't worry, trainer... In this life, I know how rare opportunities are, and I'll definitely lead you to become the strongest.'
'The ridicule and hardships you experienced will all disappear. From the beginning, everyone will envy you for having such a good eye.'
'Rainbow Team Rocket... In this life, it will only be a gift I give to you.'
At this moment, a few trainers passing by came to pick their starter Pokémon.
The smile at the corner of Ralts's mouth quickly disappeared, and she returned to her dumbfounded look.
"Eh, this breeding house even has a Ralts."
"Save it, my aunt works at the breeding house. This Ralts doesn't look very smart and can't learn a single move."
"That's a shame… It's rare to encounter a rare Pokémon, but with such poor potential."
"Let's go, let's keep looking at others, don't waste time here."
———
At the entrance of the breeding house.
Axel had just been forced by a little loli to take a bunch of photos and sat on a stone with no regard for his image, refusing to cooperate anymore.
Just as the little loli was thinking of another tactic, a commotion suddenly came from the entrance.
Many beautifully dressed young girls streamed in from the entrance, forming two lines at the entry to the breeding house, dancing a vibrant cheerleader routine.
"Young Master Gary is the strongest, Young Master Gary is the coolest!"
Eva curled her lips in disdain and glanced sideways.
"That guy's entrance is still so over-the-top, doesn't he know how embarrassing it is?"
Axel didn't really mind Gary. Although this guy was a bit tsundere and arrogant, he hadn't done anything particularly annoying.
At the very least, he was much better than young Paul and that censored One Ball Superman.
"Gary!", Axel waved at Gary.
"You're supposed to be good at studying, so why are you also here to get a starter Pokémon today?", Upon hearing Axel's words, Gary immediately felt a pang in his chest.
Like Groudon meeting a Magikarp, and then the Magikarp said, "You can't fly."
'Such a punch-worthy feeling!'
Under the influence of Professor Oak and his older brother Green, he had deep knowledge of common Pokémon and was familiar with most Pokémon's breeding and training methods.
He even knew the habitats of many legendary Pokémon, information found on ultra-secret bonus questions.
But...
Who the hell knows what year Roy caught the Black Rayquaza?
Are these real questions on the Pokémon League's official exams?
But the prideful Gary absolutely wouldn't allow himself to say the word "don't know."
He raised his nostrils, side-eyed Axel and Eva, and spoke with extreme arrogance, "Just casually did a paper, didn't expect to get a pretty good score."
"I already have an excellent Squirtle. This time, I'm just here to look around."
Eva blinked, "Then you're not going to catch a Pokémon today?"
"Uh...", Gary paused slightly.
He had come to study here this year mainly to research that Ralts. Originally, he planned to catch it if it had decent potential.
But now that he had bragged so much, how could he say he wanted to catch a Pokémon?
Still, he wasn't stupid and didn't speak too absolutely.
"We'll see. I know there's a Ralts here, and if her potential is good, I'll try to catch her."
"If the potential isn't great, then forget it."
"After all, once I, the great Gary, choose a Pokémon, I'll invest a lot of resources in them."
Hearing Gary's words, Axel's eyes lit up.
'So Gary really has intel on a Pokémon, and it is Ralts at that.'
This kind of Pokémon's evolution is Gardevoir, maybe not the most beautiful in the Pokémon world, but definitely the one that fits human aesthetics the best.
Some Gardevoirs even transitioned into the film and television industry and hold a place in the entertainment world.
"Wanna go together?", Axel had thought it through clearly: since there was a chance to catch Ralts, he had to follow.
As for whether it was ethical to "intercept"...
'In a trainer's life, how can anything be considered interception?'
Gary clearly didn't care either. He didn't absolutely have to catch that Pokémon, it was just a research topic.
"Let's go together! The two of us are like the twin stars of the Pokémon Breeding class."
"After you catch your starter Pokémon, let's have a good battle!"
As the only classmate who could match him in training course results, Gary had a special feeling toward Axel.
Like the traditional 'rival' of the Kanto region.
Simply put, he was afraid of Axel struggling too hard, but also afraid of Axel driving a Land Rover.
As for other people, no matter how well they scored, they couldn't catch Gary's eye.
So what if you knew when Roy caught Rayquaza?
Let's see you pull Roy out to fight in a battle.
"It's a deal," Axel immediately agreed to Gary's request for a battle.
Since Gary was even willing to share Ralts intel, he wouldn't keep secrets either.
He'd ask Pheromosa to show Gary what true brutality looked like.
Gary had already figured out where Ralts was and led Axel and Eva straight toward the water-type area.
"I found the info on this Ralts on a forum."
"She's kind of slow by nature, so she often hangs out with Psyduck."
"There, that should be her."
Following the direction of Gary's finger, Axel looked and his eyes immediately lit up.
This Ralts wasn't just different from Gary's description, it was night and day.
Not only did she know a bunch of moves, she even came with a supreme-level tag.
