Just because I couldn't train Tank for battle at the moment didn't mean I wouldn't be f him to work on energy manipution. I am actually pretty sure that even if he couldn't learn any more moves until be bees a Butterfree other than harden that this training will e in handy ter. Tank was all for it too since he agreed that just sitting on my shoulder stuffing his face stantly with berries wasn't the absolute best use of his time. Still the only types of energy he had avaible to him at the moment was bug and normal since he only had those two as moves.-

  With that all pnned out I turo focus on Gaia and Vul as we traveled towards the settlement. Patches of the forest and ground along the way were destroyed when they went all out in their spars. We stopped a total of three times sihe sun was going down and none of us wao travel at night. Ohird day we traveled through the forest until we got onto the main road and I put both Vul and Gaia in their balls after having tue with them over it.-

  Sadly there was an actual w that said it was illegal to have pokemon over a certain size out with you in alement beled town her by the league. The bel for settlements was based on the amount of people living in it with a minimum popution of a hundred o be sidered a town and vilges being uhat. A city by parison required at least ten thousand residents to t. Finally there was the hub cities of the world that had over one million residents at minimum , there were at least eight in every region with a gym circuit.-

  The pce I was walking towards however was only a town with about three hundred people living there named Iron town. It showed too as there was not only a pokemart and poketer but there were many buildings that looked different from the others in design and several shops for various goods. Tank didn't o be put in his ball as a small size pokemon and thus got to marvel at the town in person while my other two had to settle for the view that the ball gave them.-

  Modern pokeballs were iing in that they somehow allowed the pokemon ihem to view their surroundings. How that worked was beyo it did so I wasn't going to pin. Still it was clear to see why this town was hanks to the many eys on the majority of the buildings. There was a lot of ons and other metal works to be seen just walking into the town that in addition to the heavy st of smoke made me grin. 'Looks like I get a good spear while I am here , but first I should head to the poketer to check their posted jobs.'-

  'I'd prefer not selling any of my resources this early in my journey.' I thought as I walked towards the shiny white and red building in the distance. Poketers were not just a pce you went to in order to get your pokemoo medically but also worked as an inn and job ter for trainers registered with the league. The medical services were covered by the league but the other two were the Joy s money making business as they charged per night and took a cut of the profits from the jobs if there was any.-

  The league turned a blio this as the had perfectly reasoes for both of them that nearly all trainers could accept. I drew quite a lot of attention to myself as I walked through the town but chose to ig. With my unusual height and appearance I had long since accepted the attention I was going to get. To be fair though the variant Caterpie on my shoulder mung on a Cheri berry probably didn't help matters at all.-

  I didn't o duck to ehe poketer automatic doors and still had a couple feet over my head to boot. It didn't surprise me sihe standard for the size of the poketer had to be very rge to aodate nearly any type of pokemon in case of emergency. The trainers and staff ihe ter all stared at me for a moment wheered but the long time trainers or staff quickly reposed themselves. I approached one of the avaible ters maned by a woman with long green hair and eyes that had pale skin and freckles on her face.-

  She was fairly attractive all things sidered but she ure business when I approached. "Good afternoon. What I help you with today?" she said in a friendly but professional manner while ing her head to look up at me. "Hello , I am slightly low on funds and would like to look at the avaible job postings if that is possible." I said with a friendly smile. "Is there any preferences for the type of missions?" she asked while opening a drawer in the desk and leafing through some papers. "Nothing long term please. I am merely passing through the town." I expined calmly and she hummed in aowledgement before pulling out a small stack of papers.-

  "You may sit over there while you look through these , if you find one you'd like to take let me know so I make a copy of it and mark you down on file as having accepted it." the woman said while pointing at a table that had a couext to it. "Thank you for the help." I said with a nod and headed over to that area to take a seat and sort through the pile.-

  The jobs were both mundane and not in equal parts with a suspicious amount looking like household chores that didn't even need someoo be a traio aplish. Things like painting a house or babysitting were even on the job sheets! There were a few jobs though that definitely needed a traio take care of such as clearing out a Rattata iion and hunting Pidgeys for their meat. There was one job though that paid fairly well and I knew was a rare opportunity that I decided to take which prompted a quest from the system.

  'So any job I take alsers a mission in the system huh? .' I thought before carefully stag the job papers and walking back to the clerk. "I would like to take this job please."

After swiping the I.D through a card reader she ha bad wished me lu the job.
