"Energy cubes are currently only sold by me, so if you run out, you can come to me to buy more."
"Energy cubes are rich in nutrients, so they will definitely not let you down."
Alex explained to Emma that there are various factors in the growth of Pokémon, and food is one of them.
Energy cubes are originally made from tree fruits in the Pokémon world. They are not so precious there, but this world is different.
"I'll remember that, but can Squirtle eat anything else?"
Emma leaned her chin on her hand and asked Alex curiously.
"Of course, Pokémon have very robust constitutions, and they can even eat human food."
"They can eat anything if it's just to fill their stomachs."
Alex thought for a moment and said.
The constitution of Pokémon naturally needs no explanation, as it is definitely stronger than that of human beings, even in a sense.
They are actually the fantasy species from the fairy tales of this world!
"But it is precisely because of their excellent constitution that they also have high nutritional needs. If they want to grow up perfectly, it's better to eat energy cubes regularly."
"And each Pokémon has a different personality. For example, your Squirtle is more outgoing and lively. You can take it out for more walks."
Alex suggested to Emma.
"That's for sure." Emma blinked.
"And this, do you need one?"
Alex then took out a small pink device and showed it to Emma.
"Huh? Isn't this the Pokédex you mentioned?" Emma glanced at it, a little surprised.
"Yes, the full name is Pokémon Pokédex. If you use it to target a Pokémon, their basic information will appear."
Alex introduced it, then pointed the Pokédex at Squirtle, who was still nibbling on the energy cube, and pressed the button under Emma's curious gaze.
A mechanical voice sounded from the Pokémon Pokédex:
'Beep~ Squirtle, Water Type, Turtle Pokémon
Ability: Riptide
Moves: Tackle, Tail Whip, Water Gun
Gentle, easy to keep, the group is very united, and when it retracts its neck into its shell, it fires a powerful Water Gun.'
"Eh?"
Emma tilted her head and looked at the Pokémon Pokédex with great interest. Is the Water Type because Squirtle is a turtle?
But what does that ability mean? And a move?
Emma had a lot of doubts in her mind, and she always felt that something wasn't right.
"Do you need one? The Pokémon Pokédex will be very convenient for you to understand Pokémon, although it may not be very useful now."
Alex shook the Pokémon Pokédex in Emma's hand and smiled. The Pokédex he sold here is actually unrecorded.
In other words, it is a Pokédex that has not been unlocked, and the user needs to unlock the corresponding Pokémon with the Pokédex to view the Pokémon information, just like in the game.
"Then give me one, and for the energy cubes, give me ten boxes first."
Emma took the Pokédex from Alex's hand and spoke decisively.
"Okay~"
"Squirtle Squirtle~!"
Understanding his Trainer's words, Squirtle adored Emma and looked at her with big bright eyes.
A lot of food is beckoning to it!
"Hee hee~ Following me, of course, you'll have plenty to eat."
Emma rubbed Squirtle's head with a smug look on her face.
"Pokémon Pokédex is $500, and the high-quality energy cubes will be discounted to $300 per box, totaling $3,500."
Alex took out ten boxes of energy cubes from under the counter and spoke to Emma after packing them up.
"It's really expensive."
Emma took out her phone and scanned Alex's receipt code, rolling her eyes playfully.
She usually spends money very sparingly and doesn't go out much. This is the first time she's spent so much.
"It's really cheap, my dear customer. You are still my first guest. I have given you a lot of discounts."
"Otherwise, Squirtle wouldn't be able to sell for $200,000. It's a very high-potential product."
Alex said helplessly. Squirtle at $200,000 can really be considered the lowest price for Emma.
You must know that the qualifications of this water-type Pokémon are extremely excellent, and as the Squirtle from the three water starters of Kanto, the potential is very strong.
The final evolutionary form, Blastoise, can not only Mega Evolve but also become a formidable powerhouse. If cultivated properly, Blastoise can fully support a team.
"Which boss wouldn't say that?" Emma rolled her eyes again.
Store owners are all the same. Anyway, in front of customers, they always say they don't make or make much money.
"But I like this cute little turtle very much, so I won't hold it against you."
Emma immediately smiled and tapped Squirtle's cheek again, looking happy.
What a lovely Squirtle.
Alex couldn't help but smile because he liked Pokémon, so he accepted the system quest so enthusiastically.
Emma's performance also made him more determined in his ideal of popularizing Pokémon.
"So, do you want to draw again? There are many cute Pokémon, and some are even cuter than Squirtle!"
"You stop right there!"
"Squirtle Squirtle! (I'm the cutest!)"
"...
