Alex told Jack that he would like to receive payment in the form of cash. Alex prefers to transfer money in cash, making it is difficult to track the trail.

Jack looked at Alex with a trained smile on his face as he said, "This sum is so big that I will require a little time. Do you have 30 minutes? Meanwhile, You can check out some of the items we have."

"Sure, no problem. Hmm... Do you have any good items to increase the potential of Pokémon?"

"We have a lot of such items. It depends on what you are looking for."

"Can you give me a list of items that come from an S-rank or SS-rank Pokémon?"

"Sure, just wait a minute."

After that, Jack called his secretory to send him the softcopy of the list containing the items that Alex wanted. After he received the mail containing the softcopy, he clicked on the print button. And the next second, the printer printed out 2 papers. After picking them up, he immediately gave them to Alex.

Alex, who saw this long list, noticed that the 'Rare' items were not so rare in this shop. Although there were no more than 30 S-rank items on the list, it was still a large number, according to Alex.

Above all, the 2 SS-rank items offered here showed the range of the products these companies have.

Alex carried an excited smile as he saw the two SS-rank items.

--------------------

45 million: Remains (Ashes) of a Champion-level Gengar with SS-rank talent

14 million: 3x Scales, filled with Normal-type energy for 3 weeks by a Champion-level Exploud with SS-rank talent

--------------------

The corpse of a Champion-level Pokémon with an SS-rank talent was so incredibly rare and expensive that Alex thought he was lucky to find even 1 in stock.

Although the price of 45 million was very high, Alex believed it wouldn't take long for this item to be sold. Probably 1 or 2 months before a rich trainer needs this item.

'There should be a very good chance that the Shuppet will reach the Shallow Diamond directly with this item. And after that, it should not be impossible to increase it again to the Diamond talent because Shuppet was born with a talent that was already very good. And, I haven't given him any items, so the effect would be very high, especially for the first item.'

"I would like to buy both of these SS-rank items. Also, I would like to add some of these items from the S-rank list," Alex spoke as he pointed out several items on the list. Since he had earned quite a lot of money, he decided to not hold back on buying items.

In the end, there was a ridiculous number of valuable and good items on Alex's shopping list.

---------------------

Alex shopping list:

45 million: Remains (Ashes) of a Champion-level Gengar with SS-rank talent

14 million: 3x Scales, filled with Normal-type energy for 3 weeks by a Champion-level Exploud with SS-rank talent

5 million: Top-Ice Stone

7 million: Top-Ice Gem (Increase Ice-type Pokémon's talent when consumed)

1 million: A corpse of a High-Elite Parasect with the S-rank talent

3.5 million: 3x spoons, all of them filled with 3 weeks of Psychic-energy from a High-Elite Mr. Mime

2 million: A corpse from a High-Elite Steelix with the S-rank talent

3 million: 2x gloves filled with Fighting-Energy for 2 weeks straight from a High-Elite Machamp

1 million: A corpse from a Low-Elite Ditto whose talent was on the S-rank

Total amount = 83,000,000 Pokédollars

--------------------

When Alex bought items for all his Pokémon, he realized how unpopular Pokémon corpses are among the trainers.

From the perspective of cost-effectiveness, they are much better than other items. For the same effect, other items will cost double the amount. If it wasn't for the disadvantage of consuming corpses, Alex would always choose corpses over other items. But first of all, you don't find corpses of high-level Pokémon in high quantity. And it's not necessary that you will find a corpse that is suitable for your Pokémon.

(AN: If you still didn't understand, then suppose that the first-time consumed item has 100% effectiveness. If the item was not a corpse, it will reduce the effectiveness of the future item to 98% while a corpse will lower it to 96%)

Fortunately, Alex only buys very high-quality corpses, so this problem shouldn't be a big deal to him. High quality does double the amount of effect that an item with a similar price would do.

Alex believes that the main reason why Pokémon corpses are unpopular is that many trainers are morally naive and reject these bloody corpses. They are the kind of people who won't watch a gore movie since they will feel uncomfortable.

Although Alex would describe that as a huge double standard, he was a bit happy inside. Because of so many idiots with 'morals', these items are so cost-effective.

Alex also noticed that the prices were a bit higher than with Team Rocket Black Market. It seems that for the advantage of such a large stock of items to choose from, one has to overcome this particular disadvantage.

If Alex didn't see strength as much more valuable than money, he would have tried to save that little bit of money.

Unfortunately, if you want to save money, you have to give up having these good items as soon as possible and hope that they will show up for a better price at the earliest.

For Alex, time is more precious than money. Especially since he can earn several million in less than 1 week if he really wants to.

Since Alex bought items, the money he would receive had been reduced, reducing waiting time.

Alex took the money and the items with a smile as he chatted with Jack for a while.

Both said goodbye to each other politely, and Alex went out of the shop with a broad smile while humming a tune.

...

After finding a place where nobody was watching him, Alex teleported in front of Daniel's house and took off his mask.

He knocked and waited patiently for Daniel, who immediately invited him to come in.

Alex gave Daniel 4 million and a map of the island with exact information. He also told him that he will most likely meet a girl there with an Arbok, who is his subordinate and that he should be careful not to provoke her.

"Don't worry, Boss, I know what not to do," Daniel said, self-confidence reflecting on his face.

"Ok, I'll leave you alone now. Use the time and money efficiently to get stronger."

Daniel nodded to Alex and accompanied him to the front door.

Alex looked at Daniel's firm expression and felt that Daniel would become a really useful subordinate.

Although Daniel is not really a monster as a trainer, he should be considered a very talented one for his age.

Alex didn't think it would be a problem for Daniel to have at least 3 Elite Pokémon after a year of training. Together with his talented Beedrill, his talent should be only inferior to a weak Gym leader.
