Chapter 92: Cerulean City (Edited)
Axel only had 2 rare-ranked Pokemons including Gogoat. He needed at least 1 more Pokemon in the rare ranked Category to challenge Flint. So, he had decided to train Shedinja and Beedrill and hoped that 1 of them would reach a rare ranked.
The journey from Cerulean City to Pewter City would take around a month on foot. He would have to cross the forest with many wild Pokemons to reach there. He had no confidence in defeating Flint even if Beedrill or Shedinja reached rare ranked.
Defeating a gym was not easy in real life compared to the games and anime. Those gym leaders are at least master-ranked pokemon trainers. Even if they were using only rare-ranked Pokemon, it would not be easy.
But Axel was happy. Not cause of the upcoming challenge but the reward that the system gave by completing the 2 sub-quests out of 3. One of the rewards was snatched by the system as a punishment [from earlier Chapters] but another reward was very good.

Ding!
The host has received a talent as a reward
Reward: Overgrowth
Overgrowth: A special talent that lets the Pokemon of the host gain experience much faster. The Pokemon would also grow faster and would get powerful much faster than their normal counterparts
Condition: The effect of Overgrowth depends on the hard work of the Pokemon. More hard work = More power

Axel had an evil grin whenever he see the effect of his new talent. So much so, that even Charmeleon was questioning his sanity. He was okay with it. This means that Shedinja finally had a way to grow stronger. The most hard-working Pokemon in Axel\'s team was Shedinja.
Axel then opened his status

He had 1 month to Challenge his first gym. Axel had also decided to catch a new Pokemon. He realized that he needed more than 6 Pokemons. This was real life. There are many dangers that he may have to face in the future. Having more Pokemon with different types of specialties may come in handy. He also had a lot of money now. He didn\'t have to worry about the resources.
All the final evolutions of his current Pokemon with their specialties were:
1. Nidoking- Poison/Ground
2. Venusaur- Grass/ Poison
3. Shedinja- Bug/ Ghost
4. Charizard- Fire/ Flying
5. Beedrill- Bug/ Poison
6. Gogoat- Grass
The types he was missing were Normal, Water, Electric, Ice, Fighting, Rock, Dark, Dragon, and Steel.
He thought to catch the first Pokemon that would meet those types. Axel wanted to rest for the night in Cerulean City. He went to a Hotel called "Starruzz" He booked the hotel and went outside.
It was Evening and Cerulean City had a great view of the sea. The city was famous for being the most powerful gym leader in all of Kanto, Bike shops, and many water-type Pokemons.
Axel just wanted to relax near the beach and do some unnecessary shopping as he had a lot of money now.
Just as he was window shopping he found an interesting shop. The shop was called "Magiccruzzz". The shop was small and had a figure of Magikarp on the board. Axel went inside the shop. Axel was greeted by an old man wearing a fisher costume in the reception.
He was wearing blue jeans with a check shirt. On top of the shirt was a sleeveless jacket with many pockets. And of course, the trademark hat for a fisherman.
"Hello, matey. How can I help you in Magiccruzzz?"
"Do you sell Magikarp here?"
"As a matter of fact, we do. Do you want to buy one? We have much variety of them here."
"You seem to have different ways of selling them." Axel asked as he looked over the shop.
"Yes, we sell them in 2 ways. One is the random one on which we do not tell you the Potential of the Pokemon. Hell, even we don\'t know them. And the other one is the one where we have the details of their Potential."
"Why don\'t you know the potential of random ones?"
"We fish around 200 Magikarp a day. It is impossible to determine the Potential of each and every one of them."
"Do you even sell 200 of them in a day?" Axel asked in a doubtful voice.
"Of course, we do. You seem like a young trainer. But people don\'t buy Magikarp only to train them. They are also a rare delicacy."
"How is it rare if you sell 200 of them in a day?"
"I mean they are delicious. And we are the only one in Cerulean City that sells them. So do you want a Magikarp for your stomach or your partner?"
"I want a partner.", said Axel with a disgusted look. He wanted to buy one to train it. Magikarp may be one of the most useless Pokemon but its evolved form is not. So, he felt disgusted thinking of eating one.
"Then I suggest you do not choose the random one. "
"Okay, take me to the specific one."
The old man guided Axel inside. There were many aquariums and all of them had Magikarp. Magikarp of each potential was in a separate aquarium. The highest potential of Magikarp in the shop was Red (Advanced). There was even a shiny Magikarp. But it only had Normal potential.
Axel told the old man to see the random selection. The old man took him to the biggest aquarium that Axel had ever seen.
There were hundreds of Magikarp there. Axel started identifying each of them and made sure to not miss any of them. After some time, he found something. He had an evil grin when he identified that Magikarp.
