Chapter 59

Well not like it matters. Misty here is way more likeable than she was in the anime. Probably because she's much older. And much hotter.

I should hit her up for another date next time I see her.

"What about me?" I couldn't help but ask Hilda once I thought on her words a bit.

After all, it's only been a month and I already have two gym badges. Give it another week or two and I'll have three. And once Pidgeotto evolves it'll be a synch to fly all over Kanto and mop up all the other gyms.

Sans Sabrina. Fuck that noise. I'll leave her for Ash to deal with.

"You?" Hilda raised another eyebrow and scoffed, "You're a freak of nature."

I couldn't help but grin in pride.

"I am, aren't I?" I nodded in agreement. Things are going great man.

"So shameless," Hilda shook her head in amusement, then slumped into her bed, "So I suppose we should move on tomorrow, there's really nothing else to see around here and that asshole earlier even ruined going to Cyan Lake for me."

"We can stay another few days if you want." I offered. If she wanted to stay and check things out, I didn't mind and it really is the least I can do after she had my back like she did earlier.

Besides, now that Clefable knew Thunderbolt I can really double down on the training I want to do with Pidgeotto and Fearow. I'm totally going to steal Winona's lightning grounding technique that she used against Ash. I bet Surge is going to be really surprised when that stupid ass Raichu of his tries to fire off a 'tundabolt' only for my try hard birds to casually negate it like badasses.

It'll be perfect. Because I know that fucker is going to end up calling me a 'baby' like he did to Ash cuz of my age, dismiss me and probably hit on Hilda.

Because he did that to Misty. Eleven to twelve year old Misty to that. Ironic that even the pokemon anime was showing off how blase shit was when it came to the age of consent.

That lightning American shit won't hold up to the power of the Scottish Master.

"Nah, no point," Hilda shook her head, "Most of the attractions I came here to see have already been done away with, it's understandable why, even if it's really disappointing. So there's no point in sticking around here."

"Fair enough," I shrugged. I honestly wouldn't mind sticking around a few days longer just to double check things in regards to the property prices. Though, that did bring a thought to mind, "Hey, how much money do you have saved?" I asked.

"...Why?" Hilda gave me a searching look.

"I'm not asking for a tap or anything," I laughed, "I'm just bringing it up because you're looking to save enough money to build your own studio and shit right?"

Hilda nodded slowly, "Yes, I am....but where exactly are you going with this?" she asked.

"See this place isn't as useless as I first thought," I replied smugly, because I am who I am, "Have you seen how cheap the property prices are here? Like seriously, with a little investment I made I've got enough cash to by so much land and I'm planning on buying a ton here to build a place of my own later."

"Ah!" Hilda's eyes widened slightly in realisation, before pausing, "Wait, how do you know what property is cheap or not?" she asked, looking at me oddly.

"I don't need to be a business tycoon to know twenty poke dollars per square meter is cheap." I snorted.

Hilda whistled, "That is cheap," she admitted with a nod, "I've got a little over one point five million saved up right now, so I could buy out a pretty decent sized bit of land here huh? With my pokemon clearing out all the old stuff wouldn't be too hard as well..."

I could practically see the gears turning in her head as she considered my words, "Exactly," I grinned, "It's the same reason I'm thinking of. The only parts that will really cost that much will be getting new stuff built here."

Hilda nodded absently at my words before suddenly bouncing up to her feet in one smooth motion, said motion doing delightful things to her chest in that tight tank top of hers, "I need to look into this!" the fluffy brown haired girl pumped her fist excitedly and then surprised me, by leaning down to press a quick kiss on my cheek, "Thanks for letting me know." she thanked me before standing back up and prancing over to the computer and sitting down in front of it.

Huh. I rubbed my cheek. Well, okay then.

That'll do.

For now.

"I may as well get some training in with my pokemon then and check in with Nurse Joy." I mused standing up myself. I did promise to check back in with her more often, especially after capturing pokemon.

I let Hilda know before leaving, but she didn't even look at me as she tossed me a wave and bid me goodbye for now. She was too absorbed now in looking into what I told her.

Now is a good time to get started on having Pidgeotto and Fearow learn how to ground electric attacks shot at them using Steel Wing.

Eat your heart Winona.

And while I'm at it, I should just go ahead and see about having everyone with a steel type attack learn it, like Charmander with Iron Tail and Metal Claw. Oh an Milotic specifically would benefit a great deal from it now that she knew Iron Tail as well, and Zubat too of course.

With a whistle on my lips I left our shared bedroom at the Pokemon Centre behind and made my way out to get some training done.

I need to work a bit on my legs anyway. Can't skip leg day. Don't want to have little Torchic legs and Machamp arms after all.
