Alex looked at the unconscious Fearow and couldn't help but think about what would have happened if this Pokémon was at his peak strength.

Although the difference between LV 49 and LV 52 is not that great, in this case, it would make a huge difference.

These three levels could have seriously negated a large chunk of the damage that Fearow received from Alex's Pokémon.

The level represents the amount of life energy a Pokémon has.

Life energy is like a skin layer covering the Pokémon's whole body, protecting it from diseases and attacks. Besides, it also amplified any attack from a Pokémon passively.

This is also why if the level difference happens to be too great, the damage received by a Pokémon will be immensely decreased.

With a level difference of 8 in the Elite-rank, even Alex's Pokémon's buffed-up attack would have hardly affected this Fearow.

That is the difference between partial damage and superficial damage.

Alex looked at Fearow and started thinking about what to do with him.

Unfortunately, powerful Elite Pokémon are not very popular among the sellers.

Alex remembered a book he had read. In this book, it was said that the chances of conquering a Pokémon are influenced by 3 main reasons: level, talent, and age.

Of course, there are other factors like the trainer's strength/competence, Pokémon's species, personality, etc. But these three are the most important.

Level: A Pokémon that has reached Elite-rank will make it a lot more difficult for the trainer to conquer it if he does not have another Elite-rank Pokémon. Of course, it also depends on the level of both Pokémon.

The probability of succeeding in conquering a Pokémon is on average:

"25%" if the Pokémon is on Level 40.

"10%" if the Pokémon is on Level 50.

"0.1%" if the Pokémon is on Level 59.

These figures are just general probabilities, but it shows how difficult it is to conquer even a level 40 Elite-rank Pokémon.

The trainers, who try to conquer an Elite Pokémon, almost always have to have a Pokémon stronger than the one they are trying to conquer to even have the above-mentioned probability.

But even with these major disadvantages, Pokémon are relatively sellable between LV 40 and LV 50. Though the price is not good if it is not on the S-rank.

Talent: The arrogance, self-confidence, or you may say ego, is directly proportional to the talent of a Pokémon, which makes conquering a talented Pokémon much more difficult.

Fortunately, conquering a talented Pokémon is not that difficult when it is still young or, at least, has not reached the Elite-rank.

Age: Age is also a very important factor if you want to conquer a Pokémon. As a rule, older Pokémon are more difficult to conquer compared to young Pokémon. There are many reasons for this, but the main reason is probably habit and pride.

When all these three main factors are against you, it is nearly impossible to conquer a Pokémon even if you have a Champion-rank team.

Compared to the other two factors (talent and level), age is a little more significant. Such that it is always more difficult to conquer an old Pokémon.

Although old Pokémon have experience, the experience of a wild Pokémon is not worth much and even disadvantageous if you have to break their bad habits.

Not to mention, these Pokémon hardly have any potential to grow.

Old Pokémon are highly unpopular and are mostly not kept by trainers after they have caught them.

Alex looked at Fearow and called Vulpix and Shuppet back into their Pokéballs.

Then he put the two Pokéballs in his backpack so that these two Pokémon could not see anything.

After "covering" the two young Pokémon's sight, he said with an emotionless tone, "Crobat, kill him quickly."

Although dead Pokémon is almost useless, it doesn't mean that it can't be sold as a corpse for a good price.

Alex didn't feel bad about killing a Pokémon that was actively attacking his family. He even finds that it is almost self-defensive. Not that it matters. He has already killed for less.

Crobat flew in front of Fearow and used [Wing Attack] to cut Fearow's head straight off.

After a Pokémon is unconscious and its life energy is severely weakened, it is no longer unmanageable to kill a Pokémon spontaneously.

Crobat, Scizor, and Eevee all had indifferent expressions when they saw this bloody scene.

Gardevoir, Bastiodon, and Ditto had slightly different facial expressions but did not react very much.

Blaziken was the Pokémon that showed the most reaction. First shock, then disgust, and later, slight sadness too.

Alex could easily read these emotions of Blaziken but said nothing and continued to watch how she reacts.

He felt that his daughter now has to deal with the bloody side of this world or that she won't be able to really grow up.

Of course, he doesn't want to overload her, so he watched her closely.

After Alex had packed the body in his TRH device, he noticed that Blaziken was feeling better than before. Her eyes were somewhat more relaxed, even if they were still a little messed up.

Alex picked up the two Pokéballs from his backpack and took out the two young Pokémon.

Vulpix, who had finally left her Pokéball, looked at her father and pouted, "Father! Why did you send us to the Pokéballs? That is unfair. We did nothing wrong."

Shuppet said nothing but looked at Alex with an expression of curiosity.

Alex looked at them both with a warm smile and said, "I'm sorry. I know that you didn't do anything wrong. I just had to discuss a very important topic with the others. A talk where only ȧduŀts can participate."

Vulpix continued to pout and started to ignore her father when she went to Gardevoir to complain about Alex.

Shuppet didn't show any expression but went to Alex. He hugged him and followed Vulpix.

Alex looked at them both with a genial expression.
