People in the Elf: God rewards hard work and I become stronger at the speed of light Chapter 252

Red Lotus Town!

Inside the independent communication room of the Pokémon Center!

“A Master Ball… I only have one Master Ball in my collection, and I already gave it to that brat of ours not long ago…”

Professor Oak on the video looked troubled.

“Just three days ago, that kid Green suddenly asked me for it.”

“It seems he found some precious Pokémon that he needed it for. It’s going to be very difficult for me to collect Master Balls right now, after all, this item has been out of production for a long time, and I don’t know who the original batch ended up with.”

“Is that so…” Bai Ze frowned slightly.

He knew a little about Master Balls.

Back then, Silph Co. manufactured the ‘Master Ball’ project with great hope and ambition.

The initial research and development alone cost billions.

The intention was to create a Poké Ball that could directly capture any Pokémon with 100% success without needing to battle.

But then, the first batch of limited edition Master Balls appeared on the market.

People discovered that this expensive Poké Ball was completely a tasteless and regrettable “chicken rib” (something that is not worth keeping but also not worth throwing away)!

Because.

Although the Master Ball could capture and restrain Pokémon 100%, it couldn’t tame them at all.

Most Pokémon would choose to escape the moment they were released.

If they encountered some short-tempered ones, they might even directly attack the trainer holding the Master Ball when they were released from it…

High price.

Can capture but cannot be used.

This greatly reduced the value of the Master Ball.

It also led Silph Co., which had placed great expectations and manufactured this Poké Ball, to eventually cease further research and manufacturing of the Master Ball.

Therefore, very few Master Balls are circulating on the market today.

Basically, there are still some unused Master Balls in the inventories of various professors, families, and even the Alliance.

It is indeed somewhat difficult to get them… because this item is like a collectible; its practical value isn’t great, but owning it is a symbol of status, so people who have it generally won’t sell or give it away.

Of course.

With Professor Oak’s prestige, it wouldn’t be difficult to get one or two by using a bit of personal connection.

But debts of gratitude are always hard to repay, especially for someone of Professor Oak’s status.

Therefore,

Bai Ze found it quite difficult to bring this up…

And just then.

Accompanied by a rummaging sound, Professor Oak, who had disappeared from the video, suddenly reappeared on the screen.

In his hands, he held two peculiar Poké Balls, one in each hand, raising them to the screen.

Amidst Bai Ze’s puzzled expression.

He chuckled, his tone carrying a strange meaning:

“These two Poké Balls were also entrusted to me by a friend many years ago, who asked me to specially manufacture them, and they have been passed down to this day.”

“Their names are the Stardust Ball and the Mystical Ball, respectively.”

“The blue Stardust Ball is suitable for Flying-type Pokémon, and the other light purple one is the Mystical Ball, suitable for Fairy-type Pokémon. They should be able to solve your urgent problem…”

Professor Oak said words that Bai Ze found strangely familiar.

And then.

He suddenly changed his expression, putting on a strange look and teasing, “As for who it is, well, just like before, I can’t tell you yet, because one day…”

“I’ll know, right?”

Bai Ze rolled his eyes, interrupting directly.

This was the second time!

First the Ghost Ball when he left Pallet Town, and now the Stardust Ball and Mystical Ball… Although he hadn’t gotten them yet, they were very likely suitable for Rayquaza and Zacian!

To be honest, Bai Ze was incredibly curious about such foresight-like preparations!

Or rather.

He already had some guesses in his mind…

Beep—

A sudden honking sound suddenly interrupted Bai Ze’s thoughts.

And Professor Oak on the other side of the video immediately changed his expression.

“Oh no, my instant noodles!”

“Gotta go, Bai Ze, I’ll send these over to you now, talk next time!”

“Sigh…”

Just as Bai Ze raised his hand, the video screen instantly went black.

Not long after.

As the platform below the communicator flashed, two uniquely styled Poké Balls were transmitted over.

“It really is…”

Unable to help but roll his eyes, Bai Ze reached out and took the two items from the platform into his hands.

The touch was good for both, and they were both very light.

The lower part of the blue one looked like it was cast from alloy, while the upper part was a transparent crystal, dotted with shimmering blue-purple starlight, like a starry sky curtain, full of futuristic technology.

The light purple, almost pink one, had an overall soft jade-like feel.

It was engraved with ribbons composed of countless characters, making it full of mystery.

“It seems none of these are ordinary items…”

He weighed them twice.

Then,

Bai Ze’s power of insight swept over them—

[Stardust Ball: Made from extraterrestrial meteorites and Flying-type core crystals, its interior can simulate partial ozone and even star-filled environments, suitable for Flying-type Pokémon that survive at extreme high altitudes.]

[Mystical Ball: Crafted from a whole piece of Fairy Agate, its interior simulates a fairy realm, making it very suitable for Fairy-type Pokémon to live in.]

“What a coincidence!”

Bai Ze’s eyes held a strange meaning. After a brief contemplation, he turned and left the independent communication room… Rayquaza, Zacian, and Sabrina were all hidden in the forest on the back of the island; he had no time to delay here.

As for the little fellow Mew.

After releasing Gardevoir from its Poké Ball and whispering something to her, Mew handed Gardevoir an item and then disappeared without a sound.

He had also seen the item.

It was a World Tree Seed—

[World Tree Seed: A seed containing strange power, its aura can be used as a pass for the World Tree’s immune system.]

Its function seemed ambiguous.

As for what Mew actually told Gardevoir, when Bai Ze asked, Gardevoir just shook her head, full of worries.

Bai Ze did not press her.

Although he knew that if he insisted on asking, Gardevoir would most likely not hide it from him, since Gardevoir showed resistance, Bai Ze respected her privacy.

After all, Bai Ze believed that Gardevoir had her own judgment, and Gardevoir would not harm him…
