Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 15 Welcome the two of you to Team Rocket

To become a senior executive of the Rockets?

This is a path that Bourbley never envisioned.

Upon hearing this, Lance looked at the two of them with a scrutinizing gaze. Guzma was one thing, but this Bulmi was not worthy of the title.
It's not that Lance is questioning Mammon's judgment; being a regular officer is one thing, but being a high-ranking officer isn't so easy.

But Mammon knew that Bulmeli was definitely a good match. Although Bulmeli's trainer talent wasn't particularly outstanding, it depended on who she was compared to.

If it's someone with the same level of talent as the protagonist in the original game, who's a champion every year, then of course it's inferior, but compared to ordinary people, it's still not a problem.

After Team Skull disbanded in the game, Bulmer focused on raising Pokémon and challenged the Alola League, even going so far as to confront the protagonist.

Moreover, Boole Meili has excellent management skills; she managed to keep the disorganized and chaotic Skull team under her control, which speaks volumes.

"If we join your Rockets team, won't we be wanted by the league next?"

Seeing that Guzma still didn't speak, Bulmei said in a deep voice, she had no good feelings towards these people.

Besides, Team Skull only wreaked havoc in Alola, but Team Rocket is different; Team Rocket is an evil organization that the Pokémon League has issued a warrant for arrest!
“What are you saying?” Mammon laughed upon hearing this.

"Miss Bulmer, let me ask you a question: what do you think is the difference between your Skull Team's style and our Rocket Team's style?"

Mammon, fiddling with the Poké Ball in his hand, asked Bulmily.

Upon hearing this, Boulmei frowned, wanting to refute.

"Although our Rockets are a dark organization, times are changing, and our organization has abandoned many bad habits and begun to move towards a more sophisticated approach."

“We rarely do things like stealing Pokémon from strangers anymore; we run our own breeding farms to raise baby Pokémon.”

"And what about you? Right now, your Skull Team members are doing bad things all over the islands of Alora."

Mammon was practically dying of laughter at Boulmeli.

"That means there is no league in the Alola region yet. Once the Alola League is established, the first thing they will do is target your Team Skull."

"..."

Boole had nothing to say.

"Moreover, joining our Rockets wouldn't be a bad thing for you two. I think you both have the ability. Instead of just coasting along with the Skull team and getting arrested by the league, why not join our Rockets and make something of yourself?"

Mammon looked at the two of them.

"As long as you serve the organization well, you will have a place in the management of the Alola region, and I can continue to let you lead your former subordinates."

"Believe me, your future shouldn't be in this dilapidated place."

Mammon looked around the messy and dilapidated room.

"People always need to have some goals, instead of just drifting through life aimlessly. You are all capable people, so I still hope you will think about this carefully."

Mammon's words were quite polite to Guzma and Guzma, since the Skull team only had these two players they could really use.

Of course, we should recruit them if we can.

Boulme remained silent, while Guzma's eyes kept flickering.

After a long silence, Guzma finally spoke.

"I, the great one... join!!"

Guzma spoke in a harsh tone, "Yes, I've chosen to join!"

"..." Bulme looked at Guzma in surprise.

Mammon smiled broadly and clapped his hands at Guzma.

“A wise choice, Mr. Guzma, your life has a fresh start.”

"Power, wealth, beauty, or fame—whatever it may be, you will possess it all."

Mammon smiled.

"I don't want those things," Guzma said in a low voice.

What Mammon was talking about were the desires and pursuits of ordinary people, but Guzma didn't need them.

He needs proof!
Guzma has never been able to get over his failure in the 'Captain' assessment back then. He wants to prove to everyone that he, Guzma, is capable!

Why would the arrogant and volatile Guzma work for Rusamine in the game? He himself said it was because Rusamine recognized his abilities. It was precisely because of this that Guzma followed Rusamine.

"Of course, whatever you want is fine. Once we rule the Alola underworld, we will be the kings of the underworld."

Mammon certainly understood Guzma's thoughts.

“The king of the underworld… very interesting!” Guzma grinned, revealing a vicious smile.

That's right, Guzma is going to become the king of the dark world of Alola!
He wanted to show those who looked down on him his glorious side!
“And what about Miss Bourby?” Mammon looked at Bourby.

"..."

Boulmeli glanced at Guzma with a complicated expression.

“Bulmeili, you don’t need to worry about me. Make your own decision,” Guzma said in a deep voice.

"I... still want to stay with those idiots, Lord Mammon. I'm also willing to join Team Rocket, but please don't hurt the other Team Skull members who don't want to join Team Rocket, okay?"

Boulmi hesitated for a moment, then pleaded with Mammon.

“Of course.” Mammon stood up and extended his hand to the two of them.

He didn't really care about the Skull Team members to begin with, but with Guzma and Bulmi leading the way, Mammon believed that most of the Skull Team members would join.

As for the few who are unwilling, let them be.

Mammon originally intended to send those who didn't know their place to work on sewing machines or mines, but since Bulmer said so, it didn't matter.

"Welcome to the Rockets, both of you."

"welcome."

"I hope my two colleagues will continue to provide guidance in the future."

Lance and Cattleya also spoke politely, and they were in a good mood.

Lance sighed, though he didn't know how capable his two colleagues were, at least he had someone to share the workload.

For Cattleya, however, it was a novel experience, as this was her first day experiencing the dark world.

The scene of them being at loggerheads one moment and then greeting each other with smiles the next is truly quite peculiar.

However, as a member of the Rockets, the Arora Rockets are now stronger, which is a good thing.

"Now, Guzma, you two go out and announce the news later. Those who want to stay can stay, and those who don't want to can leave. We won't force them."

Mammon told Guzma and the other man that there was no rush to recruit people.

As long as the compensation is good enough, such as paying wages and giving elves, there's no need to worry about not being able to recruit subordinates.

“Okay.” Guzma and the other man were clearly satisfied with the arrangement.

"Then, Boulmi, go to Lance and get the money to buy a few clothing factories."

“Huh?” Boulmei was taken aback.

"The Rockets' uniforms can be made now. You and Guzma can swap clothes too. If there's anything you like, you can have the clothing factory make it. Your slick and unrefined style... you really need to change your aesthetic sense."

Mammon made no secret of his dislike for the style and look of Guzma and his companion.

Guzma Boermei: "..."

Caldelia's lips were tightly pressed together; if she weren't concerned about maintaining her ladylike image, she would have laughed.

Guzma and Boul's beautiful expressions were absolutely hilarious.

“…Yes.” After a long pause, Boulmei finally managed to utter a single word.

"Then it's Guzma's turn. You take over the casino from Lance and become the boss. Use your reputation in Alora to promote our casino."

"Huh? Me?"

Guzma froze, pointing in astonishment at his own face.

No, he went to open an entertainment center and become a boss?
