"Satoru, Sakiko, thank you for your cooperation."
After some time, Officer Jenny arrived.
She had arrived quickly, flying directly here on a Pidgeot.
Seeing this, Satoru couldn't help but feel a thrill.
He had heard that in the Galar region, there was a Flying Taxi service that used Corviknight to transport people between towns.
Recently, it seemed Kanto was also considering a similar service with Pidgeot, but it had been delayed due to Spearow.
To be honest, he really wanted to try what it felt like to be on a Pidgeot!
And he also wanted to catch one to add to his team's strength.
The battle earlier had shown him how troublesome it was to lack a flying unit. If the enemy was in the air, it was really difficult to hit them. After all, in this world, a sure-hit move wasn't necessarily a sure hit!
For example, a contact-based sure-hit move like Aerial Ace. To hit an aerial unit, you had to find an opportunity. Otherwise, if the enemy was constantly flying, who could hit them with a pathetic move like Aerial Ace?
Even a non-Flying type that could fly, like Garchomp, would be acceptable to Satoru.
It just flew a bit... abstractly.
I really want a Flutter Mane~
Satoru wrapped a bandage around his arm, feeling a little helpless.
The one true god of the Scarlet and Violet era, Flutter Mane. He really wished he had one too.
It could fly, fight, and provide strong support. How could there be such a cool Pokémon!
It was just as cool as Incineroar!
"Thank you for your hard work, Officer Jenny." Sakiko bowed gracefully. As a former young lady, she couldn't lose her etiquette in a place like this.
"Yes, you two have worked hard as well."
Officer Jenny nodded, a gentle smile on her face. Her right hand took her phone from her pocket as she looked at the boy and girl in front of her.
"By the way, you two, can you take out your phones?"
"Huh?" ×2.
Hearing this, the two tilted their heads in confusion but still took out their phones.
"The League has recently established a Good Samaritan Award to support trainers. If a high school student captures a member of Team Rocket, they can receive a certain number of points."
Officer Jenny quickly explained the reason.
Recently, due to Team Rocket's crimes in various cities, the League had taken corresponding measures.
For example, strongly promoting teams and recruiting strong teams as official security personnel.
From what Satoru heard, it was basically similar to the benefits of being a civil servant.
Listening to Officer Jenny's words, it seemed she had the intention of having the two of them join.
Unfortunately, Satoru wasn't interested. He was a man who was going to become a Pokémon Master. How could he stop here?
But the idea of taking down Team Rocket had been planted in his heart.
And a battle with that leader, Giovanni...
At this thought, Satoru's lips curved into a smile.
For their good deed, the two received 3,000 points.
To participate in the High School League, the standard was 5,000 points for a solo participant or 15,000 for a team, plus a certain number of qualifying match wins.
Currently, Satoru's points had reached 4,500, almost enough to qualify solo.
But he had no intention of participating alone.
After all, a lifetime of Pokémon battles, how could he abandon that!
Tomori... Anon... Taki... Soyo, I will never abandon you!
I will be with you for a lifetime!
The battle-brained Satoru had already started to cling to these people!
"If you two are interested in becoming police officers, you can contact me anytime. I'll take my leave here."
After resolving the matter, Officer Jenny mounted her Pidgeot, bid them farewell, and departed.
"Sigh~"
Watching her receding figure, Sakiko's face looked a little downcast.
"Is it really okay not to tell her?" Satoru turned around and looked at her with concern.
He had realized that she seemed to be facing some difficulties in her life. Becoming a civil servant would be a good choice, and her quality of life would significantly improve compared to her current customer service job.
"Maybe next time. I haven't made a decision yet."
Sakiko shook her head and didn't say much more.
She had wanted to say something, but she couldn't let go of her dream of becoming a Pokémon Trainer. Otherwise, she wouldn't have entered the Battling Department.
And also...
She was a little curious about the man beside her.
This was a point Sakiko would never show.
Help, my cheerful and passionate childhood friend has forgotten me?
Once he remembers, how should I respond?!
...No, the weak me is already dead. I shouldn't think about such things.
This was roughly Sakiko's current state. She was fidgety and didn't know what to say.
"I should probably go take care of Thwackey now. Sakiko, you should head back. I'll probably stay here all night."
Satoru didn't realize it, but his gaze was focused on the severely injured Thwackey, his hand tightly clutching the Full Restore and bandages he had requested from Officer Jenny.
Thwackey was covered in wounds. It was hard to imagine what kind of torture it had been through. Even giving it a bath in Full Restore hadn't fully healed it.
"I'll help too. After all, I was the one who told you about Thwackey. Let me at least be responsible until the end."
Sakiko composed herself and firmly took the bandages from Satoru's hand.
Today's events had undoubtedly exceeded her imagination, but as a young lady, Sakiko had no intention of being indebted to anyone.
"Thanks~ You're really kind, Sakiko. If it weren't for you, I'd probably have been in danger." Satoru showed a cheerful smile and then slowly sprayed the medicine on Thwackey.
"You're welcome." Seeing that brilliant smile, Sakiko couldn't help but lower her head, cleverly avoiding his sharp gaze, her cheeks flushing a faint red.
Currently, she had only one opinion of Satoru.
To be honest, Sakiko also wanted to ask Satoru various things, for example...
"Satoru, have you ever heard of 'Haruhikage'?" Sakiko's face looked a little solemn as she bandaged Thwackey's wounds.
"Huh? No. What is that, a Pokémon?"
"Yes. But just pretend I never asked, and don't talk about it with anyone else."
"Oh..."
What kind of Pokémon is 'Haruhikage'?!
Is it a Pokémon I don't know? Or is that a nickname Sakiko gave to a Pokémon?
Hearing Sakiko confirm it, Satoru was a bit stunned and was about to delve deeper into what kind of Pokémon could be related to those three characters.
But he didn't get the chance.
"Pachi... pachi..."
Because at this moment, the sleeping Thwackey began to open its eyes, having woken up.
It looked much better, and after waking up, it didn't immediately fall unconscious again.
"Are you okay, Thwackey? Don't move. The wound will heal soon." Satoru stroked Thwackey's head, soothing it.
"Pachi~ wu... pachi..." At this, Thwackey's eyes glowed faintly. It wanted to imitate Satoru and reach out its hand to his head, but as soon as it got up, the pain from its injuries made it fall back weakly.
"Don't push yourself~" "Pachichi..."
Satoru took care of Thwackey like this, smiling as much as possible to put it at ease.
Seeing this scene, a thought couldn't help but form in Sakiko's mind.
"So dazzling..."
This caregiving only stopped late at night.
"That should do it. Good night, Sakiko."
By now, the night was deep. Satoru covered the sleeping Sakiko with his jacket, then hugged Raichu and Froakie and fell into a dream.
The morning light fell on Sakiko, who woke up quietly in the shade of the trees. A gentle breeze brushed her face, making her long hair flutter slightly.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, she noticed a jacket draped over her. She looked to the other side and saw the boy sleeping in a short-sleeved shirt, hugging Raichu and Froakie.
Sakiko sighed faintly, feeling helpless.
"You really only think about others, don't you."
She had already gotten used to this cold due to her family's situation, yet he had still given her his jacket, even sleeping outside in just a t-shirt.
He was truly a hopeless person...
Sakiko picked up the jacket, feeling a little curious.
Sniff, sniff~
"It smells nice... huh?"
She subconsciously sniffed the fresh scent emanating from Satoru's jacket, then, her face blushing, she put it back on the sleeping boy.
"What on earth am I doing?"
