Chapter 8
In the Pokémon Center.
Miss Joy looked at this boy with curiosity, who had only known him for a few days but had already impressed her.
"Jon, are you going on a trip?"
Miss Joy said with a smile.
"Miss Joy, I plan to participate in the next alliance. This time, I mainly want to find a few suitable partners."
While speaking, Jon took out his ID card and handed it to Miss Joy solemnly.
Miss Joy took the ID card and saw that it showed that this was a child who grew up in an orphanage.
Then, she looked at Jon with an encouraging look and said:
"Jon, you don't actually need to apply for a travel certificate. I can directly register you for the next Fengyuan Alliance Conference."
"Really? But what's the difference between this and a travel certificate?"
Jon asked curiously.
"For travel certificates, you can only apply for one city at a time, but if you register for the Hoenn Alliance Conference, you can fill in the entire Hoenn region.
This way, you don't have to apply for it again every time you go to a new region.
And the most important thing is that you can pay the fees of the Pokémon Center in advance until the end of the next Alliance Conference, so that you don't need to spend extra money to treat Pokémon afterwards."
Miss Joy was operating on the computer quickly while explaining to Jon.
The printer quickly printed out Jon's basic information. As she continued to talk, she began to carefully review his information.
"So that's how it is. How much does it cost?"
Jon was indeed a little tempted when he heard this. Anyway, he would have to pay the money sooner or later. He took the information and pen handed to him by Miss Joy and asked.
"Is this your first time attending the tournament, Jon? Newcomers will be treated preferentially for their first participation. You will need to pay a total of 50,000 yen in Alliance coins.
In addition to free treatment, you can also enjoy a certain number of accommodation and dining. Jon, fill in the blank space above."
Miss Joy replied with a smile.
When Jon heard this, his heart tightened and he muttered to himself:
But fortunately, I earned 100,000 yen yesterday and only spent half.
But for a fee of 50,000 yen, the benefits are also good. If you are a direct trainer of the alliance, there will probably be no restrictions on accommodation and dining.
But Jon couldn't say anything. Direct trainers can still receive a starter Pokémon from the three starters, so why do you need to do this and buy a Magikarp with no combat power?
If he hadn't seen Genji and knew the location of his ship, he would have dared to take this desperate measure to let Magikarp evolve.
Then, he looked at the information on the form carefully.
His basic information was clearly written on it, and then Jon added some information to it.
Name: Jon.
Gender: Male.
Place of birth: Welfare Home, Wudou Town, Wudou Island.
Age: 15 years old.
Pokémon carried and captured: Gyarados (one year), Wolfhound (one day).
Region participating in the League Conference: Hoenn Region (next session).
Trainer level (if not tested, it can be left blank):
Trainer signature: Jon.
Date: XX year XX month XX day of the League calendar.
Witness: Joey from Wudou Town.
Jon read it carefully over and over again, and only handed it to Miss Joey after confirming that it was correct.
Miss Joey took the form that Jon had filled out carefully, and simply glanced at it quickly, and then put it in the folder.
She had some other things to explain, but fortunately, Miss Joey had an assistant by her side, and tasks such as entering information were almost all completed by the assistant.
"Then I'll pay the fee now, Miss Joy, you should have told me this earlier, so I don't have to spend money twice."
Jon said as he took out 50,000 neatly packed Alliance coins from his backpack and handed them to Miss Joy, complaining at the same time.
"That's because you didn't ask. Besides, how would I know you were going to travel?"
Miss Joy, who had received the money, responded unhappily.
"Also, dine-in is limited. If you capture a Pokémon with a big appetite like Snorlax, you can't eat more."
Miss Joy also reminded, "As for the dormitories, they are all single rooms with bunk beds. If you have a companion, you can stay together, but the number of times you can use it is only once."
"I understand, thank you, Miss Joy."
After listening to Miss Joy's series of reminders, Jon remembered them all.Then he asked:
"Miss Joy, if I want to leave Fighting Island by Gyarados, can I?"
"Yes, you can. The Alliance does not restrict the way of travel. If you have a flying Pokémon, you can do it, but you must not appear above the city.
But I don't recommend you to do this. The sea area outside Fighting Island is quite dangerous. Even Gyarados cannot guarantee that it can pass safely.
In addition, there are many uncertainties on the sea. The best way is to leave by ship or spaceship."
Miss Joy warned Jon with a serious face.
Of course, Jon would not joke about his life. Unless there is double insurance, he would not easily try to cross the entire Hoenn region with Gyarados.
But fortunately, as long as there is a certificate of participation, no matter what means of transportation he takes, there will be discounts, which also helps him save a lot of money in disguise.
In addition, Miss Joy gave him so many discounts today, he didn't know whether this was her sympathy or an investment in himself.
After all, the cost of 50,000 yen is really low, and there is a 2-month blank period, which is equivalent to 2 months of treatment costs for free.
However, it would be better if you can get the Pokémon Encyclopedia, but this is often a benefit only for direct trainers.
For civilian trainers like Jon, his starting point is actually higher than many people, many of whom start their journey as insect catchers.
"The last question, if I capture the seventh Pokémon, where will they be sent?"
Jon is more cautious, and Miss Joy looks at him, feeling more and more satisfied.
"It will be sent back to the Pokémon Center in your place of residence for safekeeping, which means that your seventh Pokémon will be sent to me. In return, we will also charge a certain fee. Do you understand?"
After asking all the questions he was concerned about, Jon sincerely thanked Miss Joy, and then turned and left the Pokémon Center.
