Chapter 288 - Pokemon Master Of Tactics: 288
10 days later when Alex was training in his and Maria's private training room, Alex's TRH devive started ringing.
Alex looked at his cell phone-like device and saw Maria write to him that she would be back from her training in the wilderness in half an hour.
The reason why Maria came back from her wildness training earlier was that Giovanni started giving rewarding missions to the participants.
To be precise, this morning Alex had a message from Lisa and several missions from which he or his subordinate could participate.
Alex looked at the 20+ missions and noticed a few peculiarities compared to normal missions that Team Rocket Mission Center has.
The first peculiarity is that the reward for almost all missions is extremely generous and relatively disproportionate for the work done. Even if they look bad compared to each other, they are at least many times better than in the Team Rocket Mission Center.
The second specialty that Alex noticed was that the value of this mission deviated extremely and there were missions that are many times more worthwhile than others.
Especially when he saw a certain mission and compared it with an average mission that was available for selection, he noticed how different the rewards are for the performance.

Failure: 1,000,000 TR Points
Reward: 1,500,000 TR Points which are transferred within 1 day
----------------
Killing a Main Pokemon from gym leader Brock is a ridiculously risky and difficult mission. Not necessarily because of Brock's strength but because of the consequences after attacking a gym leader.
The reward for such a mission is ridiculously small and the penalty for failure is a joke.
Alex had a suspicion why the mission value fluctuates so much but that doesn't happen in the Team Rocket Mission Center.
That was a test and even some kind of training for Alex and the other participants.
For almost all completed missions Giovanni will make a loss (because of the unreasonable rewards) but the point of this mission is not to make a profit for Giovanni or that these missions are fulfilled.
Alex had the assumption that these missions fulfill several goals and these unreasonable rewards are only a means for Giovanni so that the participants do not ignore these missions.
Many skills are tested and trained even if it is not directly visible at first glance.
But Alex did not believe that only the selection and comprehension of Mission are tested and trained.
The mission itself should bring valuable experience to Alex who has to manage everything or to his subordinates who take part in this mission.
Apart from the fact that Alex has the option to take part in missions himself if he finds some that he likes.
The more Alex thought about what all this mission should aim at, the more he was impressed by Giovanni's planning.
Especially that Giovanni apparently had planned everything from the start was impressive for Alex.
Alex stopped meditating when he saw Maria and her Pokemon enter the training room.
He looked at the info from Maria's Pokemon.

Alex gave a weak smile as he saw the potential of Arbok that had improved from the last time he saw it.
He also noticed that Arbok had absorbed his items faster than Bastiodon and that faster the Shallow Diamond had reached.
Alex believed that maybe the number of items played a role at the time or that Arbok was already close to the Shallow Diamond potential, but he can't be quite sure what the reason was.
The Gible to Gabite evolved and could improve his potential didn't surprise Alex because he had seen Maris's Pokemon info before she went into the wild and Gible was level 24 at that time.
Alex thought with a serious expression 'hmm, but all the other Pokemon as Gabite and Arbok should soon start to reach a level where their potential will be a problem. Like Ditto .... '
Maria looked at Alex, who was lost in thought, and said softly, "That's not how I imagined my greeting."
