After winning my Lapras, I first save my game I the GBA Device. Then the game continues with the other prize, all the prize is very valuable, some are luxurious and some have very practical use in everyday live. The method of the game is that the department that supply the prize will make a question and the guest will write their answer on the tablet they have. The first person that give the right answer will win the prize. The question is mostly base on scientific knowledge and some are about the current issue.
I don't participate on any other question since I don't really think my halve baked knowledge will have some use here and I also don't want to cheat anymore. Even if the prize is very attractive but I know that my greatest advantage is my GBA Device and other item will not increase my strength by much.
The game ended and it surprise me that Aria actually won a few prize.
"Don't look down on me, I actually graduate from a very prestigious Trainer School and I am also among the top student in my batch."
"I really admire you. I only graduate from a normal school and I barely pass. Right now I can only win on luck."
"You know what, actually I am more envious of your luck, I can no longer deny it after seeing you win that lucky number. Not just this time, you also win a lot in the Celadon Game Corner before and I belief you lose on purpose. Do you have some kind of special ability?
Hearing that make nervous a little even if I know that its impossible for her to know about my cheat."
"Is that special ability real? I find it hard to believe it."
"Actually the existence of special ability has been proven by Professor Oak from your hometown. Some of the more special among currently known ability is Sabrina from this city. It is said that she can send command to her pokemon using telepathy. I also heard about a girl that can see what her pokemon see. Professor Oak have once show her ability on TV before."
"My luck is just a bit better than other people. Don't let other people know, I don't want to be banned from the Game Corner."
"Then go with me to the Kanto Annual Race next week at the Pokemon Road."
"Deal."
Kanto Annual Race is the biggest race held in Kanto region. Trainer riding pokemon will race starting from Route 17 and across the bridge to the Route 18. The biggest feature of this race is the Betting House organize by the Celadon Game Corner. So of course that mean we will gamble.
The final part of the party is the chosen priority project for the next year. This is actually the hidden competition by all the department in Silph Co. Mr Sylph is already on stage and he will announce it shortly.
"I have seen the proposal sent by all the department head and I can see a lot of interesting idea. It makes me hard to decide which one to choose for our next year priority project. Some of the interesting idea I see is the TM Dream Machine that can let the pokemon execute the skill in their dream and increase their understanding. That can surely speed up the process of learning a move."
"I also see the proposal from the livelihood support team on researching the teleport device that can transport not only pokemon but also people. That will be the fastest transport device possible."
"Another interesting idea is the Rare Candy Project to create the best Universal Pokemon Growth Food that can give consistent effect on every pokemon. But I reject all of this idea since I can see that the idea is still immature and the current technology might still not be enough to achieve this effect. But I agree to increase the budget a little to help grow all this amazing idea. I hope we can one day make all this dream a reality."
"The one I choose as our company next main project amazing item that can further increase the relationship between human and pokemon. But it won't be interesting if I just say it why don't everyone try guessing and write it on the given tablet. The correct answer will be announce in 10 minute. The correct answer will receive a small give"
"I guess it the Master ball. The ability to catch all pokemon with 100% probability can surely affect the future relation between human and pokemon." Prof. Seo
"But I still want to bet on your project."
"Me too." Aria
"Then I guess you won't win the price but I also will choose my project. I am like the father of this project, if I don't choose it I feel like I will let it down." Prof Seo.
"I can see that most people choose the Master Ball Project but sadly you are wrong but I can see that some people had choose the right answer. The correct answer is the Soothe Bell project by Professor Seo. Congratulation to Mr Seo for such an amazing discovery. I invite Professor Seo to the stage to receive the trophy and give some speech."
Mr Seo is in shock since he did not think that his project will be chosen. I nudge him a little to woke him up and encourage him to go. But suddenly a voice shout out.
"I object."
"What can I help you Mr Black?"
"I can see that other project is still uncompleted and they might need a few years at least but my Master Ball Project is almost perfect and I believe I can complete it soon. So why is my project not chosen?"
"I already saw your proposal and I can see that with your ability it is very possible to be realize. But the decision to reject it is my personal decision."
"Why is that? The Soothe Ball Project is just a common project aim at the commoner. The item effect is vague and not very important. The material is common and the selling price is cheap. Instead, my Master Ball is a luxurious product with amazing effect. It is made with rare treasure and our company will achieve great profit and fame. Once it completed, all of those top trainer, wealthy people and those with great influence will swarm to it. So for what reason my project is not chosen?"
"Professor Black, I actually refrain from mentioning your project because you have been here since our company founding. Your Master Ball Project guarantee 100% capture rate and also guarantee the absolute obedient of the captured pokemon. Do you know what your project lack? Its morality."
"Absolute capture can also be understood with the pokemon have no choice to avoid been captured. They are cruelly deprived of their freedom. Normal Pokeball can only capture wild pokemon that want to be capture. Normal trainer will gift the pokemon with food to show their goodwill or win them in battle to show them their strength. All this is just to obtain the acknowledgement of the pokemon and make them willing to be captured."
"Even our Great Ball and Ultra Ball just increase the comfort level the ball as their new home and make them more willing accept the trainer. If the pokemon really don't want to be capture, they can just refuse but your Master Ball denied them of even that chance."
"The absolute obedience is even worst; they deprive them of even their free will. I make this company because I like pokemon and I want pokemon to prosper alongside human kind. I think of them as a friend but your Master Ball change them into a slave. No matter what, I will never allow such thing to exist. You must destroy all your research about that."
"I'm afraid I can't allow you to do that. That is a very valuable research for me."
Suddenly a man wearing a mask appear at the entrance of the party venue.
"Who are you, how do you get here?"
"I am the Leader of Team Rocket and this building is currently under our control."
At the same time as the man spoke almost half of the security guard and waiter change outfit into the iconic attire of Team Rocket and their face wearing mask. There are also more of Team Rocket Grunt coming from the entrance. There are almost 100 of Team Rocket on sight and there must be more on other floor. It seems that there is trouble.
