" i underestimated the price of the steel types in the market " said Jonathan Cross as he exited the market while holding a ticket with #3
" well i shouldn't be this stingy this is for my future " said Jonathan as he sigh, the ticket is the proof that he already paid in the store and he just needed to take a pokemon in the pokemon sanctuary
pokemon sanctuary is where pokemons is living, there is no way you will be able to put them inside the shop and just wait for them to be sold, there is so many energetic pokemon that if you try to let them wait inside the shop they will be super annoying
and that is why pokemon sanctuary is made, you also can't even get close at the sanctuary because those places are usually guarded by aura elites and higher, you can only get access in those place if you have a permission or tickets that proof you already paid
and even then you can only enter those place for 30 minutes at most as the aura of those place are high and they don't want you taking advantage of those
*********
Jonathan Cross have arrived at the pokemon sanctuary entrance, it was a huge gate with a height of 10 meters, Jonathan was thinking how are they going to know he already arrived and when Jonathan have make up his mind to shout, suddenly he heard someone speaking above him
" what are you doing here? " it was an old man wearing a farmer clothing and also a farmer hat, in his shoulder is violet bat with 4 wings and a grumpy face, it was a crobat
Jonathan was surprised but he calm down quickly and pulled the ticket with number 3 on it and before he speak the old man already spoken
" oh! you were here to get a pokemon but its a pity you are too early" said the old man while shaking his head
" huh? why? " Jonathan was puzzled by the old man words
" because you have the number 3 and the number 2 still haven't showed up" said the old man, that was when Jonathan have understood what the old man was saying
the entry of sanctuary is supposed to be in order, this was because that was the promo that the store have tried to do, the more early you buy a pokemon the more you are prioritized, means you will be the first to pick a pokemon and if there is a rare pokemon then you will be able to get it 1st and the later buyer will have to settle with the remaining pokemon that others don't want
if you are late the weaker pokemon will be the one that will be left for you
" well i think that you won't wait that long because those ticket will expire if they are super late, and its your fault for being super early i think the others are still preparing some baits and getting ready " said the old man
Jonathan have also thought of this, as pokemon also have the right to decline you if they think you are weak, so others use bait or more specifically a Elemental Berries and Pokemon loves those so much because it also helps in their growth, while others prepare their mind and body so they will look imposing and not weak
so Jonathan decided to wait for the #2 and he only needed to wait for 30 minutes and a luxurious carriage with golden coating with a rapidash pulling it, its not like there is no car but sometimes a carriage is more safer and faster than car, the carriage also have a symbol of swellow fighting a staraptor this is the sign of medium class noble the Goodwins
the driver of the carriages have stand up and fix his tie a little bit, and straighten his butler outfit and elegantly open the carriage and waited for someone to get off the carriage
the one that gets off is a burly man with red hair in a noble attire, this was the young master of Goodwin's, even though he looks old because of how his body is built he was only eighteen years old, he was rumored to be a training and a battle maniac person his name is Frank Goodwin
" oh! looks like the number 2 have arrived" said the oldman atop the gate, Frank have heard the old man and bow a little
" That is right honorable gatekeeper, this one is- " Frank was talking when he was interrupted by the gatekeeper
* rumbled*
" you don't need to talk just enter" said the gatekeeper as he tap his foot at the gate he was standing on and it slowly go down
Frank was not a bit angry that he was interrupted by the gatekeeper not like others nobles, Frank was smart even though he was a bit arrogant if he was talking to others that was because a noble need to have dignity or he will be look down upon, and he also know the reputation of the gatekeeper of the sanctuary, the gate keeper is a retired aura master, so he walk inside and only glance a little to Jonathan and ignored him
Jonathan have taken a look at Frank, he noticed his aura is is that of a power of 3 star aura user, he was not surprised as he know that the man already have a pokemon and this was his second pokemon, he heard that it was a Riolu, and Frank is a Fighter type Fighting/ Steel Aura elite
2 aura attributes is not rare, but it was said that you can only master 1 attributes and your second attribute is at most a supportive attribute at most, because if you want to advance with both attributes then you will need to have a perfectly balance attributes growth which is very rare as there is no way to accurately determine the growth of an attribute even aura grandmaster can't perfectly balanced their attributes, its not like there isn't a person that have advanced with a perfectly balanced attributes but those people have been born with special body, those are descendants of aura legends
Jonathan have waited for a little while leaning on the wall, and after 10 minutes Frank have come out while holding a Aron, Aron is a rare pokemon as the pokemon needed to be an aggron before it can give birth to descendants, that is why their population have been declining
" okay you are next" said the old man while looking at Jonathan, Jonathan only nodded as a response and he have entered the sanctuary
" just follow the signs" said the old man
Jonathan listened to the old man and walk following the signs and only 2 minutes of walking a cave is spotted, it has a bulb at the ceiling to light up the cave, the pokemon have already adopted to the light so that was okay
he saw rock, ground and steel types only it was not a surprised as this sanctuary is for these pokemon only, you can't group pokemons randomly, in volcano type sanctuary you can't put a water type pokemon
he glance around and the pokemon have also surrounded him and trying to analyzed him, if a human enters they won't ignore it, because they also want to have a trainer and they don't want others to get ahead of them, the only one that will ignore the humans are those strong pokemon, while the 2 stars pokemon and below will take a look
he paid an amount for a 2 stars pokemon only so only look at the 2 stars pokemons, while looking around he saw diglet, geodude, 2 meter long onix, beldum, ferroseed, cubone, mawhile, he also saw a dratini hiding in the corner, but he know that he can't take it and he won't as he was a steel type aura specialist, and other more cave dwelling pokemon
the only rare pokemon he saw is beldum, onix, and the dratini, he sighed as he knows that there isn't a aron anymore, he heard that there is 2 aron for sale, so maybe it was now taken by the #1
so he look at the beldum, and think that at least he will be able to make it evolve until metang, he didn't think that there is more evolution after metang as even after 2 centuries there is no one that was able to evolve metang further means it was speculated that it was a final evolution, it was hard to evolve it to metang but it was worth it because metang is a strong all rounder pokemon, its not its master of none but, it has a very strong defence, physically strength and it will be able to have a strong mind psychic attacks, it was also not slow as it can fly and it was one of the most popular steel types second only to Aron that can evolve to aggron in this part of the world, the reason why aggron is more popular is because King Ashton main pokemon is a aggron, it was the undefeated pokemon, there is no pokemon who was able to break the iron armor pokemon defense
Jonathan look at beldum and said " will you be my 1st pokemon " he also released his aura of 1 star aura user, beldum is not impressed as he was a 2 star pokemon, but Jonathan followed up
" I'm also a unique specialist with gravity special ability" he said as he slighty make the gravity higher, he didn't dare to make it more stronger or he will be ban for harming a pokemon
beldum was surprised and narrow his eyes a little while thinking and nodded while floating near him
" nice! I will be counting on you partner" said Jonathan while smiling
