Chapter 9

It took another hour to safetly arrive at the team rocket headquarter. After Jack arriveed the sun has already set. He goes straight to inform Cobra. He found some grunts who followed elite captain cobra and told them he has finished the first trial. The grunts look at Jack with horrified expression .

"Hey kid! No matter how much you want the reward, lying to us will have pretty serious and in worst case you have to say your petty life goodbye." they said while threatening him.

Hearing this Jack does not angry and said calmly, "Seniors, If you do not believe it I can prove it to you. Come out zubat!."

After releasing from a pokeball zubat fly around in mid air landed on shoulder of Jack. Seeing this those grunts can't help but show dumbfound expression and quickly call their Cobra.

After waiting for a while Cobra arrived. He did not believe it at first but after seeing zubat on Jack shoulder obediently he cannot help but accept it. "What is your name" asked Cobra and Jack replied "sir, My name is Jack" after hearing Jack response Cobra nodded with satisfaction. "Good, good. Jack, you are the fastest first person to complete first trial in the last 10 years. Here is your reward." after saying that Cobra handed a phone to Jack and said, "This is team rocket exclusive phone. Only after completing first trial you have the right to earn it. I have already transfer the integral points. You can also assess the integral market with this phone and buy items online and take those items at the exchange office. I don't have an spare ultra ball on me so you can go directly to store and ask for it. I will inform it right away. Is there anything else?"

Jack thought about it after a while and said, " Sir, can I exchange the reward for ultra ball with an luxury ball?" Hearing this Cobra does not show an surprise expression. It is not a secret that zubat need friendship and trust in the trainer to evolve into crobat and luxury ball is a great way to improve that. "Ok you can exchange it. Keep up the good work and I will be expecting much more from you now on. You can also get a medical treatment for your pokemon. It is available only once you have completed the trial." Cobra said before leaving while laughing.

Jack knows that each of 3 special island are always competing and there is a tournament after the 3 months of trial. Not only Giovanni reward the winner, he also reward the Elite Captain overseeing the island that the winner come from. The reward from Giovanni is rare and each of them are priceless treasures.

After getting checking the reward he received, Jack goes to the store to get an luxury ball and to buy things. Now he has the total of 1200 integral points. He check the prices of the items store for a while. There are many items, pokeblock, TMs, evolution stones, some items for pokemon but some of useful ones are hella expensive. Jack calculate the prices and decided to use all his points. He does not worry about integral points as he can catch good aptitude pokemons and sell them.

He bought 10 pokeballs for 100 points. Miltank milk, honey of beedrill and calcium tablets which are beneficial for newborn pokemon growth for each of which can be used for a week for a total of 400 points. He also bought traning materials and dual type primary rank pokeblocks of poison and flying. Both for 600.

As for the remaining 100, he use it for high quality blood which can last for a week and one super potion. He uses all of his reward in just a few minutes. When he finished buying those things it is already at night. Those who finish the trial are given temporary room at headquarter so he goes their for rest. He did not train zubat tonight he just feeds him the things he bought and high quality blood for dinner as for him he eat the dry ration he bought before. After eating Jack change zubat pokeball to luxury ball and let it rest in there and he start to make plans on how to train zubat tomorrow. By the time he finishes it is already late at night but others have not returned as they are still capturing and taming pokemons. So Jack decided to sleep.

On the morning of the next day, Jack found out the another person has complete the first trial while he is sleeping. He is the guy he knows from the past and he got the first place during three months in this island and also got good result in the team rocket tournament and he heard some says that he got recruited into shadow directly under Giovanni. Jack does not know the exact information as he got kicked out of the island after 2nd trial in the past. His first pokemon is same as the past. The electric sheep called Mareep. The final evolution is called Ampharos and it is very strong. It also has a mega evolution and after mega evolution it obtain am additional attribute which is the strongest type dragon. It also means it has dragon blood in his bloodline, pokemons which has dragon blood are all very strong and fierce. When it mega evolve it become the only electric/dragon known in the entire world.

Jack is very interested in this person but training pokemon is more important. After eating his breakfast Jack decided to go to forest to train his zubat. Wild is the best place to train pokemon as danger are everywhere it can develop pokemon's instinct to the maxed. Plus with zubat which can detect surrounding and with his eyesight, he will be fine unless he go deep into the forest to provoke strong pokemons.

When he prepare to take off to train, zubat warns that a person is approaching him from behind. As he turns around he saw a familiar silhouette holding a yellow sheep in his arms.
