Chapter 2 - V1CH3- Ralts Hates Fish

[Ralts has Leveled Up.]

'Huh? HUH!' 

Soutarou stared at Ralts and thought to himself, 'Too broken, too broken… it must be because it's still in its earlier levels… and my psychic energy is still settling properly…'

'Now that I think about it, there are too many good things… there has to be a catch. Not everything can be too positive right? Like how am I one of the richest people alive??? For example I'm apparently the heir to the Morita Family or rather M Corp. (the Morita Family Corporation)?'

 

'Which has a crazy high market capitalization and it's right up there with Devon Corp., Silph Co. , and Marco Cosmos ... Unlike those three however, our company seems to focus on luxury products, grooming items, contest items, luxury cars, luxury boats, luxury campers, real estate, luxury balls, custom poke balls, PC systems which we purchased the rights for from Bill, we even seem to have the patent rights for the general teleporter albeit its held jointly with the Joy Clan, not to mention to the uncountable amount of licensing, pokemon perfumes, human perfumes, fashion, life style apps, and even travel brands. Essentially just a multiregion luxury technology, premier lifestyle, and luxury brand. Essentially the Gucci, Versace, Burberry, or Rolex of the pokeverse, but way more diverse… Wait, we own the majority of the oil rigs in the world? What the hell. Anyways you get the picture. And all I can say is… Good Llama! Haha! We're rich, baby!'

Unknowingly Soutarou had lifted up Ralts and begun nuzzling his face against hers affectionately.

'Well… Enough of that now that I've sorted out everything… I know exactly what I should do… snatch the idea for Rotom Dex! And use our connections to buy up as many Mega Evolution Stones as possible as well as Tera Stones…'

Soutarou then rang the bell and within moments a soft tap of a knock resounded on the door and Soutarou quickly answered, "Come in!"

A white meowstic stepped in and Soutarou quickly put down Ralts, before petting the meowstic and telling it to go get Sebastian. It quickly teleported and came back with Sebastian. 

"Young Master, is there anything I can do for you? I've had the highest quality food prepared for Ralts. Though it's not from Silph Co., but rather our own M Corp breeders."

Soutarou put his hand on his chin and said softly, "Adjust that to make sure the Meowstic get the same treatment as well. I didn't call you for that however… Sebastian, what's your opinion on the pokedex?"

Sebastian frowned in confusion and answered, "It's an excellent invention by professor Oak and will most definitely save many lives and create a new generation and breed of pokemon trainer."

Soutarou replied, "That's a textbook answer Sebastian… What I mean is what's the market like… think about it if there's a market for phones… Why not custom pokedexes? Why not combine the two and make a phone with a pokedex combined? Or even further, why not add in something volatile like a rotom into it?"

"A Rotom by itself is extremely volatile… but our researchers recently published a public work where they demonstrated a Rotom enhanced appliance… So what if we made an adaptive rotomdex that would allow trainers to chart new pokemon, new regions, new areas, materials, and even allow them to communicate with one another…?"

"Sebastian, there's a completely under utilized market share here! I want you to immediately communicate with our development department and put this into the priority position. If we can pull this off the Morita Company won't just be a luxury brand any more we'll be a household name! Every trainer will have to have our products."

Sebastian was absolutely flabbergasted and then his jaw went slack and he said, "Y-young master you! You're a genius! I always believed in you! I'll call the development department right away!"

Soutarou shook his head and said, "Scratch that call our legal team and have them immediately file a patent and work with the development team to create a prototype so we can lock away the rights to such an idea. Additionally contact Professor Oak and make sure when we advertise our new Rotomdex as promoted by him. I don't care about the cost, the pokedex was originally his idea. Even though now it's an open source product… The rotomdex is something that will be unique to our company, but getting the original creator to promote our product serves our purposes better. Especially when he's the one who creates the pokemon profiles on the pokedex itself."

Sebastian took out a notepad and quickly had his young master maul over any ideas or data before jotting them all down, before he could leave Soutarou took out a bracelet and said, "Sebastian do me another favor… any stones that look like this one buy them up all of them. They'll mainly be on sale in Hoenn and Kalos from my own understanding. I want as many of them as possible. And…" Soutarou pulled up a picture of a terra stone, "and buy as many of these as well… Price is not an issue, I want all of them. And have all of these items shipped here and store them in our warehouse."

Sebastian was confused but realizing his master may have had some sort of epiphany he complied without hesitation, looking over the images and links his master had searched for and immediately ordering Meowstic to teleport them to their private communications link so he could relay all the information to the involved parties. Soutarou tapped his chin… 'those perks really do work on my business skills… or rather the ability to capitalize on those opportunities… what else… oh yes I want to see more of the pokemon we have here in the manor…'

Soutarou once again rang the bell for a blue meowstic to step in and Soutarou calmly asked for it to show him around the backyard area. 

"Meowstic!~"

"Ralu~"

Ralts waddled behind the Soutarou only for Soutarou to crouch down and grabbed her and held her on one arm and grabbed the meowstic in the other telling it to just point him the right direction. 

~Three Hours Later in the Morita Manor's Land~

'Damn how big is our land? I get it we're on the southern absolute edge of the Viridian City greater area… but we even have beach access? Honestly with how far officer Jenny drove we're a bit away from Viridian and I'd guess we're about the same away from Pallet town… That's crazy but, hell yeah you'd best believe I'm going to the beach! Correction MY BEACH!'

Soutarou gently set down Meowstic and Ralts and began rolling up his sleeves and taking his shoes and socks off as the three worked their way down the path towards the beach area. As the three made their way over they suddenly saw a pokemon flapping around on the sand.

Soutarou without much thought rushed over and saw a purple fish with big eyes and lips that looked extremely dehydrated with cracked scales, dried out lips, and droopy eyes. 'A Feebas? This is… a shiny Feebas? Man… I really want to catch it… Damn I can't even see its potential unless it's in a pokeball I own… wait! It's dehydrated and it looks like its fins have been injured too… it probably got forced ashore…'

"Feebas can you hear me, just blink if you can."

The flopping fish paused and slowly blinked its big eyes. 

"Feebas I have a pokeball, I'm going to use it on you so we can get you to help. If you want I'll release you right after we help. Just blink twice quickly if you agree."

The fish's eyes clearly hesitated before it blinked twice in succession. Soutarou's hand ruffled around in his pocket quickly finding a miniaturized luxury ball that he then enlarged and kneel down and tapped on the Feebas' forehead.

'Huh…? Wait, did I see that right…? THREE ABILITIES?!?!?!'

'...Err… I really don't want to let you go any more buddy… Hehe… Love bombing time!'

Soutarou slowly rubbed the luxury ball as if to soothe it, while he then said, "It's going to be alright Feebas I'll protect you no matter what! Ralts, Meowstic teleport us back to the Manor!"

"Mreow!"

 

Ralts on the other hand hesitated having a bad feeling, but in the end she gave in.

Both her and Meowstic latched onto Soutarou's leg and pulsed with psychic energy and teleported 100 meters forwards before repeating it. After about 5 teleports Meowstic began panting and Soutarou told it to stop telling Ralts to take over. Ralts then proceeded to teleport them several times before they finally reached the manor. The most surprising thing was Ralts wasn't even breathing hard…

'As I suspected… being infused with the Mind plate means she has near infinite psychic energy. Poor Meowstic…'

Meowstic on the other hand was not only flabbergasted, but almost fearful of Ralts. Meowstic pulled on Soutarou's pant leg and pointed at Ralts saying, "Meow-meowstic!"

Soutarou just moved his finger over his lips and motioned it to stay silent on the matter, before saying, "Ralts' is really really strong… but can't tell anybody or bad people will try to steal Ralts…do you understand Meowstic?"

Meowstic's eyes widened and it nodded vigorously. Soutarou then said to Ralts, "Ralts use Heal Pulse on Meowstic. Then prepare to use it again on Feebas."

A green pulsing light wrapped around Meowstic soothing its strained stamina before Soutarou said, "Meowstic go inside and have Sebastian prepare a tub of water immediately."

Meowstic wobbled for a moment before its eyes flashed blue and it sent off a message. Soutarou then released Feebas and Ralts immediately began healing. Sebastian shortly came out and said the tub was ready before his eyes landed on the injured Feebas. He simply nodded and motioned them to follow. 

Soutarou then instead of returning Feebas to its luxury ball lifted it up in his arms and gently stroked it and said softly to himself, "Aren't you a beauty… Don't worry Feebas I'll make sure your beautiful scales and fins will be alright."

Ralts who had been healing Feebas began to shake a bit, its healing energy diminished severely which caused Soutarou to remind Ralts to continue to heal it. Ralts went quiet, but it continued to do what its master asked of it. 

Feebas on the other hand was the happiest it had ever been, no one had ever called it beautiful. Its own mother had declared her to be a disgrace. A shiny they called her, she'd never been cared for nor loved and suddenly experiencing so much care from one person she didn't even know all that much made her feeling extremely pleased and happy.

Soutarou on the other hand was internally hating himself, 'Forgive me Feebas I'm definitely manipulating you right now… but don't worry I'll treat you right! I'll give you tons of resources and genuine love and care! On the flip side though… Ralts seems to be having a terrible time… as I guessed even for her teleporting that much causes strain… I'll make sure to shower her in love and cuddles later. First comes capturing Feebas' heart!'

Ralts on the other hand finally lost it hearing the nonsense Soutarou was whispering to Feebas and used her psychic link to Soutarou to tell him, {Master! I hate fish!}
