Pokémon: Trainers Start as Bounty Hunters.

Tetsuya pulled out a brand new... cell phone.

Yes, it's a phone similar to the one from my previous life.

It just has many more uses and content related to spirits.

The manufacturer is, of course, the Shiruff Group.

Since learning that his communication system had a vulnerability that the Rockets had exploited, Hiroki Shiluff took action without hesitation.

The specific details are unknown to outsiders.

Anyway, last night, the latest product that the other party claimed to have no flaws was mailed to Tetsuya.

In terms of appearance, he doesn't deny that it has indeed instilled a lot of ideas in Shiruff.

As someone who's always glued to his phone, he really feels incredibly uncomfortable without it.

For this, the Shiruff Group even paid him a seven-figure to nearly eight-figure sum for the exterior design patent.

Yozo also received this new product.

Although Tetsuya felt that the Rockets might be able to technically crack the code, it definitely wouldn't happen that quickly.

In the short term, this contact method remains highly secure and confidential.

in other words.

If the Rockets can crack the new technology as soon as it comes out, it would be strange if the Shiluff Group didn't carry out a large-scale purge.

More specific information was sent out.

"Received, understood."

Ye Zang's brief message arrived quickly.

Tetsuya finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He never expected that his friend would take on this hot potato.

but.

Compared to other trainers, Yozo's safety should be guaranteed.

Grandma Kikuko's personality clearly doesn't allow her grandson to suffer.

"Let's hope it's not some Rockets executive anymore."

I don't want to go up against you right now, Giovanni, don't force me.

In the hall, Tetsuya's expression was somewhat uncertain.

Chapter 586 Actually, I'm a good person (Edited in one hour)

Close your eyes.

Tetsuya quickly put the matter out of his mind.

For now, what he needs to do is to regain the ability to use his superpowers as soon as possible.

Having once possessed that kind of power, it is indeed difficult to tolerate the current state.

Inside the villa.

The previously noisy atmosphere quietly quieted down considerably.

The elves each found a place to rest.

In a corner of Cerulean City.

"Oh dear, what a pity."

"I think I've been found out?"

A man with purple hair muttered to himself.

His face looks somewhat like a monkey's.

"Well, he's Grandma Kikuko's grandson after all, so we can try to 'negotiate' with him."

A glint of light flashed in the purple-haired man's eyes.

He took out all sorts of clothes and tools and started fiddling with them on his body.

Within minutes, he completely changed.

A chubby, endearing-looking man quietly emerged from the corner, then disappeared into the crowd.

On the wall by the street.

A blackboard-shaped notice board stood prominently.

The leader of the Rockets' four executives, he is powerful and acts cautiously.

Danger level: ★★★★

Danger level: ★★★★☆

Lambda (no portrait)

One of Team Rocket's four executives, skilled in disguise, the entire team is a member of the Gas Bomb family, using smoke and self-destruct tactics.

Danger level: ★★☆

"call--"

A gentle sea breeze was blowing.

Four sheets of paper containing information about the Rockets' officers fluttered slowly.

However, most of the trainers who passed by didn't take it to heart.

The four executives, while not as strong as the regional Elite Four, are still figures that ordinary trainers would encounter.

Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals.

In most cases, trainers encounter Team Rocket henchmen in the wild, at most elite members.

The road leading from the police station to the suburbs.

Ye Zang was walking briskly.

"Are they being targeted by a dark organization or a Pokémon hunter?"

"That's true. Judging from the composition of that guy's team, even I'm somewhat inferior. It's only natural that it attracts covetousness."

In his mind, he was recalling the information that Officer Jenny and Tetsuya had given him.

Yozo was very clear about the role he was playing this time.

To put it bluntly, it's just bait.

Ordinary people wouldn't dare to use the grandson of Kikuko, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, as bait.

But what can you do when Yozo and Tetsuya have a good relationship?

Helping out a friend is no big deal.

Moreover.

"The Hualan Caves, I'd like to visit that place too."

Yozo was somewhat expectant.

As a student at the Pokémon Research School, he naturally didn't have any so-called official battle records.

Although advanced trainees are equivalent to trainers who have eight official gym badges.

However, it is undoubtedly quite difficult to apply for a pass to the Cerulean Caves with this.

This mission gave him a great opportunity.

At least, you can get a pass without having to specifically show your identity.

Yozo didn't like to flaunt his status to everyone he met.

This can be seen from the fact that he, as the grandson of the Ghost-type Elite Four member, aspires to become a Dark-type Pokémon Master.

His goals were quite ambitious.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Ye Zang glanced behind him thoughtfully.

He felt as if someone was following him.

The pace of his steps suddenly quickened.

We arrived at a wasteland.

As he pulled out two Poké Balls and threw them, he shouted in one direction, "Sneaky creatures, come out here!"

"Oh dear, we've been found out!"

A fat man, as round as a ball, walked out from behind the tree with a smile.

He didn't seem flustered or embarrassed at all after being discovered.

With the protection of the Commander of Slash and the World's Number One Roaring Tiger, Ye Zang did not relax in the slightest.

He sensed a great danger emanating from the man before him.

"Who are you? Why are you following me?"

Ye Zang asked with a serious expression.

As is customary, this is something that the protagonist must do.

If he didn't feel he couldn't win, he would actually prefer to fight directly without much talk.

"Oh dear, don't say that!"

The chubby man's tone was strange. "I've just lost my way in life."

Besides, aren't the roads the alliance paves meant for people to walk on?

"cut."

Yozo curled his lip in disdain.

That's why he doesn't like trash talk.

He really didn't know how to reply.

"Blazing Roaring Tiger, use Fake Out; "

Slash the Commander, use Iron Wall and Sword Dance!

In that case, let's communicate in a way that is appropriate for trainers.

Without hesitation, Yozo commanded his companions to launch an attack.

"Oh dear, can't we just have a proper chat? I'd really like to get to know you, a descendant of a Heavenly King!"

Despite the blazing roaring tiger hurtling towards him at high speed, the chubby man still wore a smile.

"The gas bomb is yours now~"

"Gas~"

A listless voice rang out.

In Yozo's astonished gaze.

The purple Koffing, which had just emerged from its Poké Ball a second ago, immediately emitted a white light.
