Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn

"How about it? Sir, do you need to buy a high-level Pokémon like this? If you are going on an adventure in the wild, I think it will be very helpful..." The man in black robe stated calmly, as if he didn't care whether Wang Jin bought it or not.

Wang Jin really likes this kind of Pokémon. As long as he feeds it food every day, it can ensure the growth of Gastly and Chickadee.

"How much?" Wang Jin asked.

"That depends on the strength of the Pokémon you choose." The black-robed man explained slowly. "The price of the beginning King level and the late King level is different."

After a Pokémon reaches the Elite level, each small level upgrade will have a significant increase. A Pokémon that has been at the Elite level for a long time will have a number of moves it masters and a level of proficiency that is far beyond the reach of an ordinary Elite level Pokémon.

"Then...how many Alliance Coins does this Super Armored Rhino cost?" Wang Jin pointed to the super power image presented by the black-robed man's hands.

The black-skinned Super Armored Rhino was covered with orange-red armor, which showed its extraordinary hardness. The Super Armored Rhino was also at the late Heavenly King level, about level 47.

"Oh? This one is very powerful." The black-robed man closed his hands, then opened them again, revealing a specially made grey Poké Ball. Through the translucent cover, he could vaguely see the Super Armoured Rhino inside.

"It's an evolved version that carries a Pokémon item. The price is... three million Alliance Coins." The man in black robes placed the Poké Ball in the middle of the table, and then said, "Our selling price for this type of Pokémon that has just entered the King level is 1.5 million Alliance Coins."

Since the Pokémon above the gym leader level sold in the black market have all been brainwashed, their prices have actually already had a basic trend and floating range, and are far less expensive than Pokémon resources.

Because Pokémon above the gym leader level, whether wild or captured, are bound to have a problem of being disobedient. Their prices will be greatly reduced when they are sold or resold.

The Pokémon that the trainer has nurtured since childhood and established a bond with can truly be considered a fighting force. Otherwise, many Pokémon can only be locked in the Poké Ball, and some of them will not contribute in battle.

Comparing the two, one is a tool, and the other is a Pokémon, a way to cultivate Pokémon.

There are many Pokémon with talents, but resources are more important to the growth of Pokémon, and resources are more expensive than "tools" that can be discarded at will.

But for wilderness trainers, saving their lives is also important. Even if it is a bulky brainwashing Pokémon, Wang Jin must get one to protect his basic safety.

"This is it." Wang Jin did not hesitate, even though he knew the price was too high, especially for a brainwashed King-level Pokémon, which might not be worth millions of Alliance coins.

But this is the black market. As long as buying it can make him feel at ease and play the corresponding role, Wang Jin can accept it.

After taking out the Alliance Coins from his backpack and handing them over, Wang Jin also accepted the Poké Balls, and then laid out all the Poké Balls he had taken from Kanna.

There are five of them in total, and all of their Poké Balls are locked. Kanna has no bonds or tacit understanding with them.

But Wang Jin was not going to keep them.

They are the gym owner-level Booming King Kong Ape, the Cunning Giant Fox, two elite-level Long-nosed Leaves, and a qualified-level Braided Sheep.

"A total of three hundred and ninety-seven thousand Alliance Coins." After using his super powers to detect the status and strength of these Pokémon, the man in black instantly calculated the price and took out the corresponding part from the thick stack of Alliance Coins given by Wang Jin and returned them.

Now, in addition to the dragon scales, Wang Jin still has about 960,000 Alliance coins.

The man in black robe crossed his wide black sleeves and asked:

"What else do you want to buy? Do you need a highly talented Pokémon?"

"No..." Wang Jin shook his head. Although he wanted to buy more elf resources, the most important thing at the moment was the issue of identity and location. "How much does it cost to teleport to the wilderness?"

"The wilderness area..." the man in black robe thought.

The Wild Area is a vast wilderness between the central and southern parts of the Galar region, where Pokémon of various attributes live, and many trainers will adventure in the wilderness.

There is no need for any identity or rules there, only money and strength matter.

"Only 5,000 Alliance coins." The black-robed man said. "Every day, many people travel between the wilderness and the city, so we built a dedicated superpower transmission channel, which is not very troublesome."

"Okay." Wang Jin felt relieved and continued to ask about the relevant resources for breeding chicks and Gastly.

After a while.

Wang Jin spent 200,000 Alliance Coins to buy a special fruit for Chickadee and Gastly respectively - the Black Wing Fruit and the Dark Ghost Fruit. They were said to be unique fruits of relatively superior quality in the Marokomon Group and would be of great help to the growth of low-level Pokémon.

Then there were some experience candies purchased with 100,000 Alliance coins, as well as a spirit item corresponding to Gastly, a rope filled with ghost energy, and a communication rope.

This is the item necessary to evolve from Haunter to Gengar. Wang Jin spent three hundred thousand and bought the best quality.

Wang Jin then bought a mobile communication device, which was a Pokémon version of a laptop computer, spending more than 10,000 Alliance coins.

He doesn't have much money left now, only about 150,000 Alliance Coins in savings.

"Okay, let's start." After Wang Jin packed up his things, he gave the man in black robe five thousand Alliance coins, indicating that he could start.

“Okay…” The black-robed man’s voice suddenly became hoarse and distorted, and his body shape also began to twist.

The environment around Wang Jin suddenly fell into darkness, and the man in black robe also disappeared.

Soon, Wang Jin felt nauseous and subconsciously closed his eyes.

...

The wilderness connects several towns, with varied terrain and climate, and a wide variety of Pokémon. As time, location, and weather change, different Pokémon appear.

This is also where Dynamax occurs. By searching for Pokémon nests, you can find wild Dynamax Pokémon. In addition, you can collect berries and props, collect Watts, and participate in Rotom Cross-Country Races in the wilderness.

This is the paradise for Galar's black people and the best training place for trainers.

The east bank of Yaya Lake.

In the Union Store with a cloud-shaped sign on a blue background, a middle-aged woman with a sallow face leaned casually against the counter, separating several Union currency bills with her fingers.

It is now past seven in the evening. Even the most experienced trainers and adventurers will obediently find a safe place to camp.

The Alliance store in the wilderness area is also about to close.

"Om~"

The iron door representing the black market was suddenly opened, causing the yellow-faced woman to look sideways, only to see a young man with an indifferent face slowly walking out after observing.

This is Wang Jin.

He looked around the store carefully and walked out only after seeing that there was no one else there except an old lady.

The old lady who was looking at him was wearing a worn-out T-shirt that was neither red nor pink and seemed to be covered with a lot of dust. There were also many mud spots of similar color on her wide brown pants.

"Newcomer?" The old lady stretched out her hand, pinched all the bills, and stuffed them behind the counter. "I'm Du Li, you can call me whatever you want. I'm the owner of this store, and it's almost closing time now."

Wang Jin listened and was about to nod when he saw Du Li pointing to the wooden door on the side:

"There are guest rooms over there, 2,000 Alliance Coins a night, would you like to stay? Otherwise, you can just sleep in the wilderness and feed the Pokémon."

"..." Wang Jin was silent for a moment and did not respond. Instead, he walked out of the store and looked outside.

The store was built on a low green hill, with a steep mountain on one side and a downward slope on the other, with a tall alloy fence on the top of the slope.

In the darkness, the slope outside the fence could no longer be seen clearly.

If Wang Jin wants to leave, he must walk out of the fence.

This also reflects the dangers of the wilderness.
