Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 330 Serena: What are the benefits of joining Team Rocket?
Time passed by minute by minute.

"I think I need to think about it."

Karuno replied somewhat wearily.

She really didn't know what to do at that moment. Should she send the pansy sisters over? She simply couldn't bring herself to do such a thing.

But she was equally unwilling to become Mammon's maid.

Certainly, as the Carlos League Champion, she was prepared to give everything for the people of Carlos and the region, a commitment she had from the moment she became the Carlos Champion.

But let’s be honest…

That's not true!
"Of course, I understand. I'll give you one day, Miss Karuno. Give me your answer by this time tomorrow."

Mammon smiled, his unhurried tone resembling that of an elegant gentleman.

He was completely fearless and not afraid of pushing the Carlos Alliance too far, since he wouldn't suffer any loss no matter what.

It is precisely because she knows this that Karuno is so worried.

"Please allow me to take my leave now."

Karuno left in a hurry; she desperately needed to calm down and think rationally.

"It's really interesting."

Looking at Karuno's retreating figure, Mammon couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hikari, what choice do you think Ms. Karuno will make?"

Mammon asked Plantina.

Prandina was taken aback by what she heard.

"...It should be 'sacrifice' oneself, for Miss Karuno, taking care of Mr. Mammon's daily life seems to be a very terrible thing."

After thinking for a moment, Prantina replied to Mammon in this way.

Hmm, it seems Mr. Mammon has taken a liking to Miss Karuno and that reporter from earlier?

Prantina didn't quite understand; she felt she could take care of Mr. Mammon's daily needs herself.

Miss Cattleya should be willing too, so why force Miss Karuno, who is so 'old'?

Mr. Mammon must have his own ideas.

Plantina thought to herself.

"Ah~ She looks at me like I'm a jackal or a tiger, tsk~ but she's not wrong." Mammon chuckled.

How should I put it? Karuno is just stupid, no, or rather, she never even thought about 'bargaining'.

"Let's go find Serena."

The central square of Miare is the heart of the city and the location of the Prism Tower.

The so-called Prism Tower is actually the Luna City Gym, and the gym leader is Clemont, Ash's travel companion in the anime.

However, Mammon didn't come here to challenge the Luna City Gym.

Serena was still wearing her signature black top and red skirt, which perfectly accentuated her youthful curves, and her black over-the-knee socks added to her girlish charm.

However, at this moment, the girl from Asaka Town seemed to have something on her mind, looking at her phone as if she was thinking about something.

"Miss Serena."

"Mr. Mammon, Miss Catharia, Hikari."

Upon hearing the gentle male voice, Serena immediately snapped out of her daze and greeted the three of them.

"I'm sorry, I ran into Ms. Karuno on my way here, so I talked to her for a while."

Mammon smiled and apologized.

"It's okay, Xiaoguang already told me, I won't have to wait long."

Serena shook her head. She hated people who were not punctual, but Plantina had already messaged her saying that she had met Miss Karuno on the way.

Since the other party had a reasonable explanation, Serena naturally wouldn't make trouble unreasonably.

"Miss Karuna, is there something you need from Mr. Mammon?"

Serena couldn't help but be curious, after all, Miss Karuno was the champion of the Carlos League.

"Well, they want to talk to me about some things related to the organization. How should I put it? They want to cooperate with our organization, right?"

Mammon thought for a moment and replied, feeling that what he said made no mistake.

"Oh, oh." Serena nodded as if she understood, but she was just a newcomer and didn't know much about the interactions between these large forces.

Besides, she didn't know what Mammon's organization was.

But since it's an organization that even Ms. Karuno has to cooperate with, it must be very powerful.

"Then we'll have to trouble Miss Serina. We're new to Miare City and still quite unfamiliar with it."

"Don't be shy, leave it to me."

Serena smiled beautifully.

“Mr. Mammon, the city of Miare is divided into six main avenues: Spring, Summer, Autumn, East, South, and North, as well as six plazas, including the central plaza where we are located.”

Serena introduced the three of them.

Where would you like to start your tour?

"Look at the two girls next to me, the best they could start is from the fashion district."

Mammon laughed and said jokingly.

"Hmm~ Let's go to Spring Avenue then. There are many fashion boutiques there, it's the avenue that girls love the most."

Serena didn't hesitate at all; yes, she really liked going there.

Serena is also a girl who loves fashion; after all, what girl doesn't love beauty?

"Okay, go go go."

Serena then led Mammon and the others to Spring Avenue. Serena was indeed very familiar with the city of Ale.

After all, she was originally a native of Carlos, and as the central transit point of Carlos, she had visited the city of Miare countless times.

Although the plan was to spend a whole day exploring Miare, most of the time was actually spent on Kasuga Boulevard.

Serena is very knowledgeable about 'fashion', while Plantina and Cattleya are also very beautiful girls.

Well, it was just that Prantina and Cattleya's 'generosity' in buying clothes still shocked Serena. Serena's family wasn't actually that bad off; after all, her parents were both successful in their respective fields and could be considered middle-class.

However, Serena was still shocked by the two women's extravagance, especially Cattleya.

Cattleya: "How about this one?"

Mammon: "It looks great."

Cattleya: "What about this one?"

Prantina: "So beautiful!"

Cattleya: "And this one?"

Serena: "Miss Cattleya looks elegant in anything she wears."

Cattleya: "Pack up all the dresses for me, including this one and that one."

How incredibly extravagant and inhumane!
Serena knew that the three of them must come from wealthy families, so she took them to a relatively high-end clothing store.

Unlike Cattleya, Prantina also buys whatever she likes without even asking the price.

What can Serena say?

It's hard to judge. Is this the legendary rich heiress who doesn't care about money?
"Come on, have a drink. Why did you stop watching?"

Serena was resting at the entrance of the clothing store, while Plantina and Gadriya were still looking at clothes. Mammon walked over with a bag of juice he had just bought and handed Serena a glass.

"I'll rest for a bit." Serena took a sip of pineapple juice and felt much better.

Serena then glanced at Mammon, who was surrounded by Jirachi and Victini, with Tapu Fini following behind. All three Pokémon were holding a glass of juice.

Yes, the scene is quite harmonious and humorous.

Serena has a good eye; she recognized them as legendary Pokémon!

Mr. Mammon is indeed very mysterious.

"Mr. Mammon, are Xiaoguang and Miss Cattleya's families very wealthy?" Serena couldn't help but ask.

“You’re right to say that.” Mammon raised an eyebrow, roughly understanding why Serena had asked that question.

"Hikari is the eldest daughter of the Bellridge family in the Sinnoh region. The Bellridge family is the richest family in Sinnoh."

"Cattleya is also the eldest daughter of a very wealthy family in the Sinnoh region, so her family is indeed very privileged."

Serena wasn't particularly surprised by Mammon's explanation.

"However, they don't have much contact with their families right now, and they spend their own money."

Mammon added another sentence.

"Huh? But..."

Serena was taken aback by what she heard, but instinctively she couldn't believe it.

Dude, look at how extravagant they are, they don't use any of their family's money?
“They all receive a salary in the organization. Gadria has been financially independent for a long time. Although Xiaoguang doesn’t have much savings, she still has some. And if she really needs money, she can ask the organization for an advance.”

Mammon said with a smile.

"???"

Serena really wanted to ask, "What kind of organization is this? Are you still hiring?"

And Serena has never forgotten what Prantina told her yesterday.

"Isn't it amazing? If you, Serena, are willing to join us, I can offer you generous treatment."

Mammon sat down on the bench at the entrance of the shop, patted the spot next to him, and smiled at Serena.

"Could you please introduce me?"

Serena did not refuse and sat down next to Mammon, asking curiously.

She is now not resistant to the organization that Mammon mentioned, and is eager to learn more about it.

"The organization is called Team Rocket, but it used to be an illegal and evil organization."

"what?"

Mammon's first words stunned Serena.

"Yes, Team Rocket used to be an evil organization, wanted by the Kanto League. But that was in the past. I took down the former leader of Team Rocket and took over the team."

"So this is ah."

Serena understood; that made no difference.

After all, Miss Karuno has had contact with Mr. Mammon, which means that Mr. Mammon is not a bad person.

"What are the organization's specific actions and objectives?" Serena asked after thinking for a moment.

"The primary objective is to eliminate the Dark Organization and the Hunter Organization. I hate those evil elements the most, and I have zero tolerance for them."

Mammon's words were spoken with absolute certainty!

Serena gazed at Mammon's handsome profile, her eyes sparkling. Mr. Mammon is so handsome!

"As for the second goal, it is to develop businesses and make money. Don't look down on us just because we are a private organization. In fact, my alpaca business group is very prosperous. Our entertainment centers, Pokémon riding stores, and so on are very famous in other regions."

Mammon said with a smile.

Awesome!
Serena had actually wanted to ask earlier: if Team Mammon Rocket's top priority is to eliminate other evil organizations, then where will the organization's funding come from?
If the Rockets can expand across regions, then the team must be very large. Where does the money come from to support the organization's members?
Now nothing seems strange anymore.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Mammon asked very considerately.

"If I join Team Rocket, Mr. Mammon, you..."

Serena hesitated for a moment, wondering what she would receive if she joined the Rockets and what she could get in return.

Otherwise, why would she join the Rockets?
Personally, she still likes Team Rocket's mission to eliminate the Dark Organization.

As for whether Mammon deceived her?
Putting aside the fact that Serena trusts her intuition, the fact that Miss Karuno made a deal with Mammon also shows that Mammon is trustworthy, doesn't it?

"Let me give you a brief introduction to this."

Mammon's lips curled up slightly.

It's clear that Serena has secured her place.

Great, the Rockets have gained another key player!
