"During the previous tide, sir made us realize the importance of such information. So, we have been gathering such information for a long time. Sir also helped us on it after we came in contact with him.", said Hector. He was proud of his work.
"But wait. Even if we had the information, the soldier would not be able to remember all of it. So what are we going to do?", asked Kurt.
"That is a good question. I will also appoint some commanders and many lieutenants. We will divide the groups in such a way that each group would only need to remember 5-6 of the details of Pokemon species
If these groups came into the situation to fight other Pokemon species, the lieutenants and the commanders would help them.", said Axel.
"That is a good strategy. I must say, Axel, I am impressed with your plan", said Agatha.
"Where is Kent? You said that he was in the Kanto League. Will he not be joining us?", asked Axel.
"No, he would not. You have me, so Gerad would not appoint Kent in the north zone. I think he would be in the south zone cause it is the weakest."
"Okay. Agatha, how many king-rank Pokemons and pseudo-champion rank Pokemons do you have?", asked Axel.
Agatha didn't want to give this information to Axel but now she was working under her. She slightly greeted her teeth and said,
"I have 20 king rank Pokemons and 6 pseudo-champion-rank Pokemons."
"That is a good number. It would help us a lot. I think that we should finish the night raid as fast as we can. I will also help you with it. Then we will focus on the day tide."
He didn't want Agatha to be only focusing on night raids. Agatha was too valuable for only night raids.
After talking with them for some time, they went their own ways. Everyone separated and Axel went to his own office.
Since he was the general of the north zone and he had his own office. He now needed some time for himself.
###
He had 14 days left before the start of the tide battle. He needed to improve himself and his Pokemons.
Beedrill, Gogoat, Alakazam, and Mamoswine.
These Pokemons were left to rank up to king rank. They were very close to reaching king rank.
Venusaur would be one of the most crucial Pokemon in this tide. It had many healing-type moves.
For some reason, Axel wanted to meet with Mew today. Mew and Axel had a deal that it would train 2 of his Pokemons but Axel would be supplying it with unlimited food for life.
Axel had made a better deal as food would not cost much and Mew hardly ate anything. Mew would come to get food every 15 days. However, Axel would not directly meet with Mew. He would just leave some food in the room and Mew would come and take it.
However, today he had decided to meet with Mew. He was not going to sleep today and Mew was supposed to come today.
At around 2 a.m. Axel heard a sound as if someone was in the room. He opened the lights and saw a small pink Pokemon flying and looking at the food greedily.
Mew's face showed as if it had been caught red-handed.
"If is your food, why are you so red? Haha."
"I don't like talking to people.", said Mew. This time the voice of Mew was very sweet and girly. Axel immediately realized that this was the female Mew.
"I believe we are meeting for the first time. Hello, Mew.", said Axel as he proceeded to sit in the chair.
"Hello, Axel. Do you need anything? I want to eat food. I am very hungry.", said Mew.
"Haha, you can eat while we talk. I actually wanted to talk to you today."
Mew took an apple from the table and took a big bite.
"I am the successor of Prof. Oak, the Pokemon master…"
"I know who you are. I know who Oak is.", interrupted Mew.
"Ok, right now I am trying to fight in the tide. I have fought in the tide before but I still need some help from you. Can you give me some advice?"
"Axel, you know all the things about Tide. The only thing that you lack is experience. I cannot teach you that. So, there is no advice to give to you."
"I have 14 days left before the start of the tide. Can you train my Alakazam, Mamoswine, Gogoat, and Beedrill till that time? I would be very grateful."
"What would I get for training them? Will I get any more treats?", asked Mew with curious eyes. This Mew was very playful.
"Yes."
Axel looked at left and right and then called Mew to talk secretly. Mew got excited and came near him.
"I have a secret recipe. I can make that dish for you. But I have a condition."
"What condition? What?"
"If you can train at least one of my Pokemons to king rank within 14 days, then I will make you that dish. If you cannot, I will just give you normal food."
"Ok, deal!", said Mew as it started to dance think of a delicious meal.
Axel called all of them out.
Alakazam already knew Mew very well. The rest of them had seen it but had not trained with it.
"Guys, you would be training with Mew for 14 days. No, make it 13 days. I want you guys to have a full rest for 1 day.
Mew would take you to its own realm and train you. Train very diligently.", said Axel.
They were ready to train. They wanted to reach king rank as fast as they could and training with Mew would help.
Swoshh.
Mew and the 4 Pokemons disappeared in a flash. Axel told Mew to return them on the 13th day. He repeatedly reminded Mew of this point. If these Pokemon were not present during the tide, then it would be disastrous.
###
He then went to the training ground and called all of the remaining Pokemons. He didn't give them any specific instructions. Just told them to train by themselves.
He also had a plan for himself. He wanted to reach elemental rank before the start of the tide.
Elemental rank was one of the thresholds for humans too. He had reached the peak of rank rare a while ago. Now, he just needed to break through elemental rank.
He was going to train in aura and psychic techniques as much as he could. He was also going to focus on his sword training techniques. Axel was very close in reaching elemental rank.
Normally, he would not have reached elemental rank within 14 days but he had a talent 'Elemental overgrowth' that would boost his training speed to maximum limit.
To train himself more effectively, he went to Dragon for help.
"So, you want to train your body huh?"
"Yes, I am planning to reach elemental rank before the start of the tide."
"That is a big goal but I can already see that you are at the peak of rare rank. I wished if Lance also focused on his own training.
Worry not, we have some training ground specially for humans. Follow me."
Lance took him to the training grounds and introduced 3 training grounds. One of them focused on body stats. Another focused on aura techniques and the last one focused on psychic techniques.
"You are free to use all of them. If you reached elemental rank before the start of the tide, then it would help us a lot.", said Dragon and walked away.
The only reason for him reaching elemental rank was the rare rank wild Pokemons. If he reached elemental rank, then he could actively fight with rare rank Pokemon himself.
Obviously he would not fight with any rare rank Pokemons but he would be much more safer than now. If a rare rank Pokemon came to kill him, he can defend himself. He could also run from elemental and pseudo-king rank Pokemons.
Thus the training of his Pokemon and himself began.
###
After 12 days,
---
Ding!
Host has fulfilled the rank up condition.
Ding!
Host is ranking up to elemental rank
---
The pain came again. Axel was used to this pain but the pain this time was much higher than before. He didn't know why it was so. He felt as if his soul was changing to a higher form. It was a very painful experience.
His bones would crack and mend itself. Blood were coming out of his mouth, nose and eyes. He was crying very loudly. Lance and Lorelai came to see the commotion.
"Don't worry, Axel is ranking up to elemental rank. Everyone goes through the same process.", said Dragon to Lance. Lance was very worried about his friend.
After 5 minutes of grueling process, Axel quited down. He slowly stood up and a gust of wind came from him. Everyone could smell the mix of blood and fresh air.
"Axel, how are you my boy?", asked Dragon.
"Weirdly there is no pain now. I feel as if I have been reborn again.", said Axel.
"Don't worry. It is a normal process. When we reach elemental rank, our body changes in a cellular level. You much be feeling very energetic right now."
"Yes, I feel that I am 10 times stronger than before. I feel that I could do anything right now."
"That is the rush of the rank up. Don't get overconfident due to it."
"I will keep that in mind. Thanks for the advice."
"Good, now take some rest. I will organize a part for your rank up celebration.", said Dragon.
"You don't have to do that. We are on the verge of a very big battle."
"Nonsense. Everyone should celebrate their elemental rank up. Rest for some hours and I will be back to you. Lance follow me.", said Dragon.
Dragon was a man of many words but he was very considerate.
###
Dragon called Lance cause he wanted to lecture Lance. He went to a room and faced Lance.
"Now, why do you think that I have called you here?", asked Dragon.
"You want me to train hard?"
"Yes, I want you to train hard. Even after I told you to train repeatedly, you are only an uncommon rank now. You consider Axel as your rival. He has now reached elemental rank.
There is a huge gap between both of you now. This happened due to your own negligence. Am I saying anything wrong?"
"No father you are absolutely right. But I just don't have time. I am very busy training my Pokemons."
"Lance, you know that your Pokemons are far weaker than Axel's Pokemons right?
I don't want to be a father who compare my children to others. But you must know that I have done it. Axel had proved it. Don't you think that it can be done by you too?
You are more talented than me so how can you not do it? You just have to plan efficiently and think with your brain.
Now, Axel has some sense of security in the tide. He could fight and even win against rare-rank Pokemons. He could run from elemental and pseudo-king rank Pokemons. I am just telling you the benefits here."
"I understand father. I will start to train after the tide.", said Lance.
"That is a good attitude. Now let's prepare a part for Axel. He deserves it."

The stats had massively increased and the level of techniques had also increased. He also also learned a new move called 'Aura strike' which would help him punch and kick by coating aura in his fists and legs.
He was waiting for tomorrow to meet his Pokemons. Mew was coming tomorrow. He knew the progress that they had during that time cause now he could see the progress in real-time.
Charizard and Shedinja were still very far from the Kanto League. At first, they were moving at a high speed but now the speed had slowed down. They must have faced a lot of problems in the wild.
Axel was worried about it. He knew that they could fend off these wild Pokemons.
After feeling happy about his progress, he went to sleep.
