Pokemon tower (part 1)

Next day, Alex woke up early and had given his now healed Haunter the Ghost stone for use. It will slowly increase his ghost power and help him later in the evolution.

Now knowing about the variation he knew what was needed for his Pokemons evolution. Haunter would require a strong poison and ghost energy in equilibrium absorption for his optimum growth.

And the only thing that can be used in this case which he knew about was the venom vein which is a rare item for poison types.

This item is actually a climber plant which grows in the resting place of powerful poison type pokemons. They were first discovered in an old Nidoking burial grounds where they seem to grow around the bones of these pokemons absorbing the poison in them and growing over the years.

These can also be found in arbor, seviper and toxicroak burial grounds too. These vines are edible and help the growth and power of their respective species.

For example, Nidoking vine for Nido family, arbok for ekans and so on. Its not that it is not effective for other pokemons but it is best for that type.

But the main difficulty is that they are heavily guarded and is guarded by the head of the group and it takes a long time to grow. About 10 cm a year and this cost a few million even in ordinary market let alone the black market

There are also some artificially created ones from grimer, koffing and swalot but it has one- twenties the effect when we compare a metre of artificial one to the 10 cm natural one.

Now he has to get it soon for Haunter. He was gonna start buying them when nidoran evolve to nidorino but now after Haunter completely absorb the first stone he will feed him that vine and the other stone as souvenir on him to balance the two forces.

After this he once again has a yearning for adventure and now he is on tight schedule too. He will be having a young brother or sister soon and he doesn't want to miss it. So he is sure to be there for the child birth but he also knows his mother will make him stay with them for a few days which may turn to a few days or even a couple month and he couldn't say no because he too would want to spend time with him or her.

So he decided that in the next four months he would get the other four badges and qualify for the league (which he unknowingly already did. ) And then spend the rest time at home or sporadic trips for training his pokemons. This will get him enough times for some experiment of his own while also replicating ones mentioned in the diary.

This way both himself and his mother will be heavy but now the problem is how to continue the journey without affecting mom's emotions much especially in times of pregnancy.

Soon a knock at the door brought him to the reality. Then he said to hinself," I can think about it later. I better get going or Bill will always tease me for it. "

Then he motioned his pokemons out there like Espeon, riolu and Growlithe to follow him. He also got Pichu last night after he learned he had almost learned volt tackle or at least it's prototype.

So he was gonna have it fight some pokemons and see how his volt tackle is and if it is good enough he would remove the everstone on him and let him evolve.

Alex opened the door to see Bill standing there with Daniel. " So you both ready for the pokemon tower ?"

" Of course I am ready." Bill said excited

" I have been there many times and we can only travel a few floor others are restricted area." Daniel said

" Can't we just go there for a peek?" Bill asked as they walked out of the pokemon center.

" No we can't. There are many powerful ghost type there and they don't like being interrupted. If they are angered we may have pokemon raid right here at lavender town." He said the last part gravely.

This made them aware of the dangers. Pokemon raid was a grave threat to all human towns and cities. Every year a few towns are destroyed in the pokemon League and how many people die in there are enough to make anyone cringe in fright.

So a pokemon riot is a very serious matter for the league and anyone who cause this is regarded as a criminal with life and death capture order and is hounded by both league personnel and the bounty hunters. Some criminal organization too join this.

There was a case in which an angry business caused a riot in a few village because they didn't follow him and joined his business deal. He thought they insulted him and because of his links with the league official he thought nothing would happen to him but he was wrong.

Although he managed to rage the villages to the ground killing hundreds of people he was not forgiven. He was caught two days later after the incident and he was publically executed and his property was confiscated. His family was thrown out of their home and were forbidden to enter any city of the league.

Not only the initiator but his family even if innocent isnt spared although not prisoned or attacked not allowing entry in a city meant if a big pokemon raid happens and they attack the city they will not be allowed to enter in any case and would either be trampled to death or killed.

" Ok . We won't go there." Alex said and bill nodded in agreement.

They soon came in front of a tall twenty stories tower which was the burial place of many pokemons. Many trainers buried there pokemons here and because if their mass burial many ghost pokemons arrived here for the soul power here and later become a hot hub for ghost types.

" We can only go up to five stories with me, Alex could go to ten if he wants but only alone due to his special status while ordinary people can go up to three floor only.

So what do you think Alex? Do you wanna move around on your own or with us till the fifth floor? "Daniel asked

" I don't plan on getting any new ghost type till Haunter evolves with how much care they need. Also now I have many baby pokemons to look after so I will probably wait until they grow up and then think about more . Of course if I can get a great pokemons in the journey i won't refuse him joining me?

So I think I will join you to make sure Bill doesn't cause trouble for you." Alex said finally.

Alex and his friends will enter the pokemon tower. How will it go? Stay tuned
