Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 43 Sakaki Hehe, Sakaki Doesn't Hehe
The son of a gym leader has become a high-ranking member of Team Rocket?!
This kind of thing...

Zhu Lan frowned, carefully looking at the brief introduction on her phone.

Last year, I traveled from Viridian City and participated in the Quartz Conference for the first time. I showed amazing strength and made it all the way to the finals. In the finals, I easily defeated my opponent.

Zhu Lan looked at the accompanying picture, and the person in the picture was indeed Mammon, and it was a picture of Mammon holding the Quartz Conference championship trophy.

Although, judging from the picture, Mammon's face did not show much joy after winning the championship.

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

"If I remember correctly, Gym Leader Giovanni is the strongest Gym Leader in the Kanto region."

Merdan spoke in his characteristically weak and listless voice.

"Things can change in an instant. Perhaps we should ask Kanto?"

Hala whispered his thoughts and asked for the opinions of the others.

The champion of last year's Indigo League, the son of the Kanto Gym Leader, gave up such a promising future to join the evil Team Rocket.

If this news gets out, it will be a bombshell.

“The crucial question now is, Mammon is Giovanni’s son, but what about Giovanni?” Liz asked, frowning.

This is a very simple logical deduction: Mammon is a high-ranking executive of Team Rocket, so could Sakaki, as Mammon's father, also be a member of Team Rocket?

Several people were silent again.

Giovanni is the official Gym Leader of the Kanto League. If he were a member of Team Rocket, that would be no joke.

"I don't think so. Mammon isn't stupid. Why would he reveal his identity so openly? Isn't he afraid of implicating Giovanni?"

Kukui shook his head and analyzed.

This is a very simple rational analysis, because it is simply too illogical; Mammon never intended to hide his identity.

If Giovanni is really a member of Team Rocket, wouldn't that immediately expose him?
"Let's inform the Kanto League, and we also need to investigate why Mammon joined the Rockets. A young man like that..."

Hala sighed. If they could find the reason, the best outcome would be for Mammon and Gadria to leave the Rockets.

Otherwise... it would be such a waste.

They are all such outstanding young people, especially Mammon, who was a champion in his first year of debut. What an amazing genius!

"And Kapu.Finfin is still in his hands."

Hala was worried. What would happen to Poni Island without Kapu. Fizz?

"I will help you find them."

Zhu Lan spoke to Kukui and the other three, then looked up at the distant sky. Before she knew it, the sun was obscured by thick, dark clouds.

Zhu Lan's feelings remained complicated.

……

Meanwhile, Mammon and his two companions returned to Mammon's villa using several teleportations.

“Cattleya, you can’t stay in your villa anymore. Go to Akala Island for some activities,” Mammon said to Cattleya.

Mammon's goal was not actually achieved this time because of the sudden appearance of Zhu Lan.

But it doesn't matter anyway, since that's the case, we can just change the plan.

“Mm.” Cattleya nodded.

She understood what Mammon meant; Zhu Lan wouldn't let it go easily. Her residence had already been exposed, and she had let it go before.

But if Zhu Lan finds out, she will definitely come looking for her.

"Or you could stay with me for now? Kukui and the others won't attack us unless they're absolutely certain."

Mammon offered another suggestion: strength is the greatest source of confidence!

Mammon is incredibly powerful, so even if his location is exposed, Kukui and the others will have to be fully prepared before they can make a move.

Otherwise, not only would they fail to capture Mammon, but the battle would also damage the surrounding environment and buildings, and even injure civilians. This is absolutely not something Kukui wants to accept, and most importantly, paying such a price and still failing to capture Mammon would make him a complete clown.

Therefore, even if they knew Mammon's location, Kukui and his group would never act rashly.

Cynthia is indeed strong, but Mammon is not afraid of Cynthia and Kukui. However, he would be more wary of Lance and Dante Mammon.

Of course, if you add Daigo to the mix, Mammon will really be under pressure when facing three Champion-level opponents at the same time.

However, would Kukui really stoop to asking for help? Mammon has reservations about this.

"I'm going to Akala Island, Mammon, I want to become stronger!"

Caldelia's jewel-like eyes were filled with determination; the appearance of Bamboo Orchid still stimulated her quite a bit.

"Leave the activities on Akala Island to me."

"Okay, don't worry, Gadria, I will help you. I always believe in you, you are no worse than Zhu Lan."

Mammon gazed at Cattleya for a moment, then smiled gently at her and encouraged her.

“That’s right, sir. Miss Cattleya, you are excellent, no less than anyone else.” Lance said the same thing.

Well, after listening to the conversation between Cattleya and Zhulan, he roughly understood a lot.

"Thank you." Gadriya pursed her lips, thanked Lance, and looked at Mammon with gentle eyes.

Regardless, with Mammon's support, she felt a great sense of security.

Zhu Lan, I will definitely catch up with you!

Mammon took out his phone, thought for a moment, and spoke to Cattleya.

"In a while, Caitlia, come with me to Ultra Space. Although there aren't any Psychic-type Pokémon among Ultra Beasts, you can still see if there are any you'd like to train."

"The ultimate beast?"

Cattleya tilted her head in confusion upon hearing this.

“They are special creatures from Alola. It is said that they do not live in the human world and are extremely dangerous. The League once sent people to deal with them, but not only did they fail, some of them were killed by Ultra Beasts,” Lance explained.

"However, there is very little information about Ultra Beasts, and it is classified information. Domino has only found out this much."

Cattleya turned her inquisitive gaze toward Mammon.

"Yes, Lance is right. However, Ultra Beasts are also a type of Pokémon, and Ultra Beasts are very strong. If they can be properly trained, a well-trained Ultra Beast can become a mainstay or ace of the team."

Mammon nodded. The only pity was that there were no Psychic-type Ultra Beasts among the ordinary ones, otherwise it would have been a good fit to strengthen Gadlia's team.

When the opportunity arises, I'll take Cattleya to the Zero District of Padia.

Compared to Ultra Beasts, the strength of Ironleaf, Rocksteady, and Ironshell in Paradox Pokémon is not low, after all, their base strength is already there.

"Well, I listen to you."

Cattleya smiled elegantly and reservedly, though what she said was hardly what a noble lady should say.

But that's what she thought. She trusted Mammon, and since Mammon said so, it must be worth watching.

Meanwhile, Mammon's video call connected, and Sakaki's mature face with a faint smile appeared on the screen.

"Hey, Dad."

"Mammon, what's wrong?"

Giovanni seemed to be in a good mood, after all, Mammon had been in Alora for so long and finally managed to video call him.

He must be missing me, right? Maybe you should go visit that kid in Alola sometime.

"Here's the thing, Dad. I had a quick fight with the Alola Island Kings today. Sinnoh Champion Cynthia was there too. Get ready, the Kanto League should be contacting you to investigate soon, so don't give yourself away."

"???"

Sakaki's smile froze instantly.
