After enjoying the water ballet in Cerulean City, Gary left before the three sisters exited the stage.
Mainly, the three sisters' fiery gazes scared Gary. Gary would bet ten thousand that the three sisters were plotting how to share his sleeping bag...
His next destination was Vermilion City.
Before setting off, Gary sent Nidorina and Nidorino back to Oak Laboratory.
These two little guys had recently set their sights on Gary's top-grade Moon Stone. They always wanted to sneakily dig it out and eat it...
However, as a long-term investment Pokemon Trainer, Gary did not intend to let Nidorino and them evolve so early.
Only when the two little guys learned some more powerful moves and accumulated their final energy would Gary allow them to become the domineering Nidoking and Nidoqueen.
At Oak Laboratory, there was an old Kangaskhan, and Nidorino and Nidorina could learn a lot from him.
After all, this was the Kanto Region, and he was one of the main Pokemon of the former Champion, Professor Oak.
Ding-a-ling-a-ling... Suddenly, the old-fashioned phone in Gary's pocket rang...
As a standard rich second-generation, while everyone else was still using public phones, Gary already had a mobile phone.
However, current mobile phones were still at the level of old-fashioned button-operated flip phones.
To get a smartphone, he would have to wait a few more years. Although Gary had long ago sent this idea, and even the new phone design blueprint, to the company that manufactures Pokemon live broadcasters in Unova.
However, many industrial standards had not yet been met, and some chip-related problems had not been overcome, so to use a Rotom Phone, he would probably have to wait a little longer...
It is worth mentioning that, as the designer of the phone, Gary had already obtained a written contract, and for all phones manufactured based on this prototype in the future, Gary would receive one-thousandth of the profit.
Don't underestimate this one-thousandth; remember, it's for every single one... In a few more years, Gary might no longer be a rich second-generation, but a self-made millionaire~
"Hello, this is Gary." Flipping open his flip phone, Gary said.
"Oh my goodness, you finally answered the phone. Gary, where are you now?" A somewhat aged voice came from the other end of the line.
"Professor Monet? I'm on my way to Vermilion City." Gary frowned in confusion. Rainbow University's Principal Monet was considered a contemporary scholar of Professor Oak and also Gary's doctoral supervisor.
Why would this old man suddenly call?
"It's like this, in half a month there will be an academic exchange meeting about Pokemon evolution. The academic delegation from the Sinnoh Region, led by Professor Rowan, will come to Rainbow University for the exchange." The old man explained.
"Uh huh, sounds pretty good." Gary shrugged.
Professor Rowan, in terms of seniority, even Professor Oak had to call him a senior. He was a very serious and earnest old man.
"That's the problem!" Principal Monet said helplessly, "You know, research on evolution has always been our university's weakness, and that old geezer Rowan definitely wants to make fun of me! That b*tch..."
Gary almost laughed out loud: "Teacher, did you just say b*tch...?"
"Oh, my goodness, I'm incoherent." Principal Monet took a breath and continued, "Originally, I planned to let Professor Luke of the Evolution Research project represent Rainbow University at the exchange meeting.
As a result, Luke's teacher, Professor Namba, was wanted by the police station! He was directly taken away for investigation!
Damn it! That blasted Namba actually joined Team Rockets! I must erase him completely from the university's historical exhibition hall!"
Gary kept shaking his head, not expecting Namba to also be a 'talent' from Rainbow University. "So, teacher, what do you mean?"
"Before, didn't you publish a paper on Eevee's evolutions? After much thought, only you can save the reputation of our Rainbow University!
So! Gary, I beg you, come back and make a guest appearance as a teacher! Help me get through the exchange meeting gracefully!" Principal Monet pleaded helplessly.
Gary calculated his route, planning to visit Bill along the way, then take a ferry from Vermilion City. He should make it in time, so he nodded and agreed: "No problem, Professor Monet, I'll arrive at the school a week early. However, my appearance fee..."
"Absolutely no problem, it will be paid according to the doctoral attendance allowance." Monet breathed a sigh of relief.
Gary found the doctoral allowance price completely acceptable. According to the Alliance's salary cap, a scholar at the doctoral level typically had an appearance fee of around 500,000 per day.
"I still have some Pokemon with me." Gary reminded him.
"Then that's even less of a problem. I'll have the graduate students from the breeding department pamper them like royalty!" Old Man Monet guaranteed grandly.
"Uh huh, it's a deal." Gary hung up the phone, satisfied.
Rainbow University's logistics were quite impressive. If his partners didn't get two sizes fatter, then the graduate students from the breeding department could expect to fail their courses!
Having confirmed his next goal, Gary no longer procrastinated. With Eevee perched on his shoulder, he set off towards the beach.
He passed through the dense forest and heard the sound of waves. He was not far from his destination.
Ding-a-ling-a-ling~
"Eh? Am I that busy today?" Gary looked curiously at his phone, which had rung again.
"Hello Is this Gary" A lazy and charming voice rang from the other end of the phone.
Gulp~ Gary swallowed: "Sister Lorelei, what can I do for you...?"
"Hehe~ It's nothing much. There's an Elite challenge coming up in Vermilion City recently. Bruno and I are going to play a six-on-six match, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in coming to cheer for your sister." Lorelei asked with a light laugh.
Gary's eyes lit up. An Elite-level battle, and a full battle at that, this was a big show not to be missed.
"Of course! I'll be there on time to cheer for Sister Lorelei. Don't let Master Bruno's muscles scare my sister!" Gary patted his chest and promised.
"Haha Then I'll count on you to protect me" Lorelei laughed very happily.
"Absolutely, see you there!" Gary said goodbye to Lorelei very obediently.
"Phew~" Hanging up the phone, Lorelei patted her chest. She didn't know why she invited Gary, such a new Trainer, to watch her match. Perhaps... that kid's smile was really good-looking?
Hah! What am I thinking! Lorelei smiled, rubbing her forehead.
On the other side, Gary was walking briskly towards the beach.
The reward for the Cerulean Gym battle mission had arrived.
"TM: [Water Pulse], Achievement Points: 50."
To be honest, Gary disagreed with these achievement points. Given the current strength of Cerulean Gym, Gary felt that 50 was too much...
Looking at the increasingly dense, waist-high, and even path-obscuring thick bushes ahead, Gary tilted his head. It seemed there was a side quest here, right?
That's right! If you go straight to the left, there's Ash's Bulbasaur.
Thinking of that big guy's stubborn personality, never evolving until the very end, Gary decisively turned right.
"Scyther, lead the way! We're going right, our destination is the Starry Sea!" Taking out a poké ball, Gary decisively sent out the master of mowing.
"Whoosh~" Scyther took a deep breath, and a wisp of white smoke was inhaled into his lungs through his nostrils.
Hiss~ With a violent exhale, the white aura of focus condensed and did not dissipate.
This was Scyther's recent achievement; he could now maintain full focus for a period of time.
Swish! His scythes danced, and the bushes ahead were instantly cut in half.
Gary nodded in satisfaction and continued forward.
Perhaps taking on a part-time job mowing lawns or gardening would be good in the future; Scyther has a lot of talent...
