Alex left the hotel early in the morning and made his way to the port of Vermilion City.

After Alex had done all the tests he wanted to do, he realized that he hardly had any time left, and he better go to the port as soon as possible.

...

After a few minutes, Alex reached the port of Vermillion City and saw his ship anchored there.

Although this port is the largest port of Kanto, it is really nothing compared to the massive ports that Alex saw in his old world.

There were only 1 or 2 sh.i.p.s using the port in a single day, so it is not really that big.

Alex knew that not many people live in the Pokémon world and could understand that only such a small port is necessary for Kanto.

Especially since this world has machines that can teleport objects and usually only transport cheap goods or people by ship.

Most sh.i.p.s transport only people and not goods, which shows how unpopular this type of transport among the companies.

Alex looked around and immediately saw the big ship that looked luxurious and was guarded with 3 Elite Pokémon trainers in black suits.

Each of these trainers had 2 Elite Pokémon with them. Thus the sh.i.p.s were guarded by at least 6 Elite Pokémon. One of these Elite Pokémon was even at LV 52 and more than strong enough to defeat Alex's entire team.

Alex also saw a man in a fine suit standing with a list in front of the ship's entrance. This man had a friendly smile plastered on his face with the professional attitude oozing out of him like its second nature to him. He has a very handsome face with a sharp jawline.

There were only 3 people waiting in line in front of the ship. But each of these three people had worn expensive & elegant clothes with a confident expression on their faces.

These sh.i.p.s are really only for powerful and wealthy people.

As Alex slowly approached the line, he saw a person who seemed familiar to him.

She had worn a teal sundress with a bridal hem that reached to her knees and an orange puffy bow on her c.h.e.s.t with a snow-white coat that reached her waist with sleeves that go over her elbows. She also had worn white sandals, which have two teal decorations.

Although she was a very good-looking girl, she was still very young and lacked the charm of a.d.u.l.t women. Alex would estimate her age to be between 12 and 14 years.

Alex thought for a few seconds and remembered where he had seen such a person.

"Isn't that Jasmine, the future Gym leader of Olivine City?"

"Although she looks younger than in the games, her face is too similar that I can not be wrong. She shouldn't be a Gym leader either. I guess that she won't be a Gym leader until she gets older."

Alex, who got in line behind Jasmine, looked forward inconspicuously to observe her more closely.

After a few seconds of hesitation, Alex put up his trademark fake smile as he spoke like a true gentleman, "I'm sorry if I'm bothering you, but can I ask if you happen to be a trainer too?"

She looked at Alex with a collected expression and said mildly, "Ahh, yes. Can I help you?"

Alex gave a fake smile and said with a respectful demeanor, "Ah, where are my manners? I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Alex Stark and a Pokémon trainer who is also traveling on this ship in the direction of Slateport City."

Jasmine gave a polite smile as she introduced herself as well.

"Well, to return to the question. I'm looking for another Pokémon trainer for this 40-hour long journey who would be willing to do practice fights with me."

Jasmine looked surprised when she said, "Really? Is it allowed to have Pokémon fights on the ship? I don't want to break the rules."

Alex saw her nervous expression and explained with a smile, "Don't you know that there is a Pokémon arena on the ship where it is allowed to fight? This must be your first time that you travel on such an expensive ship."

Jasmine gave a sheepish smile when she said, "Y-yes, this is really my first trip in such a luxury ship."

"Hmm, you don't seem to come from Kanto? How did you get to Kanto if this is your first time in such a ship?"

Jasmine had an astonished expression when she asked, "How did you know that I'm not from Kanto? That can't be from my looks, right?"

Alex, who clearly can't say that he knows her from the games, replied with a shy smile, "Although it may sound arrogant, I am relatively well known in Kanto. Especially among trainers around your age, so I already thought that you weren't from Kanto."

"Ohh! Really? You are famous?"

"Only in Kanto though, and not really that famous. I only won the Kanto rookie tournament and am very well known by trainers around your age. By the way, how did you get to Kanto if you are sailing in such a ship for the first time?"

"Ohh, I traveled to Kanto with an ordinary ship. The only reason why I am able to travel on ship like this is that my friend got me a ticket. She has often told me that it is safer on this ship than on ordinary sh.i.p.s and that it is not a problem for her to get a ticket for me."

Alex said with a friendly face, "You really have a good friend who takes care of your well-being. You make me a little jealous. Hahaha!"

Jasmine softly smiled as she said, "She really is a good friend and a very good person."

"Ah, I almost forgot the main point of our talk. So, do you have time and interest to become my training partner?"

Jasmine, who heard the invitation to a Pokémon fight, suddenly showed a confident expression when she said, "No problem, but I must tell you that even though I'm so young, I'm not a weak trainer. So don't you dare underestimate me."

Alex, who saw the most aggressive expression on Jasmine's face till now, couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

He didn't think that this young and polite girl had such an aggressive and confident side.

because in chapter 160 there is a bit of confusion, i explain it for people who do not understand exactly how the number came together.

You could read it if you are interested.

The first thing to understand is what the Burned does in the game.

Burned Pokémon lose 1⁄8 of their maximum HP each turn and their physical Damage is decreased by 50%.

Fire type Pokémon, those with the ability Water Veil or those behind a Substitute cannot be burned.

These 50% are not taken over 1 to 1 by me but logically built into the world.

Would it make sense that a level 100 Pokemon after being hit by a level 1 Pokemon's Will-O-Wisp that all of its physical damage is halved?

I do not think so.

So in this story it depends on the level of the Pokemon (and on the level of the Pokemon it is used), type and the move mastery.

It should often have been mentioned in the story so that I thought that people already knew, but if not, you now know.

now we come to the content.

7: Eevee Poisoned & Paralyzed & Burned (Crobat & Scizor & Gardevoir): 402

8: Eevee Poisoned & Paralyzed & Burned (Crobat & Scizor & Combusken): 450

many did not understand why this bonus is so weak.

To understand it better, we would have to look at these two results again

5: Eevee Burned (Combusken): 310

6: Eevee Burned (Gardevoir): 240

and

3: Eevee Poisoned (Scizor): 320

As we can see on 2 & 3, eevee does more damage with fasade because the poisoned comes from a poison-type Pokemon.

But with 5 & 6 it's exactly the other way around.

Why is that the case?

Gardevoir has a much higher level than Eevee so her Burned is much stronger than Combusken's Burned .

Although the facade bonus is now stronger because the effect is so strong, the effect of Gardevoir 'Burned is unfortunately too strong.

Even the stronger facade cannot make up for the effect of Gardevoir 'Burned so that the damage suffers greatly.

I can explain results in more detail but don't want to bore you.

But every number is well thought out so that you can try to find out the reasons even if it shouldn't be that difficult.

and yes i love to put so many thoughts into it.
