Pokémon: Legendary Pokémon Simulator, Starting with Arceus

"Oh, Dr. Satoshi Ishida is here for lunch too. It's rare to see you in the cafeteria."

"I've been spending more time here lately. Speaking of which, aren't you guys the same? You rarely come here today, and you even come right next to me."

Looking at Apollo and Athena sitting down next to him, Xiong Meng joked.

"Ahem, I have something I wanted to ask you."

"Why would you need to ask me anything? I'm just a researcher."

"Well..." Apollo hadn't finished speaking when the three little ones walked over.

Little Silver: "Teacher, it's been a long time! Hello, Brother Apollo and Sister Athena!"

Rika: "Hello, teacher. Hello, Apollo executives and Athena executives."

Yishu: "Hello, teacher. Hello, Apollo executives and Athena executives."

"Please have a seat since you're here," Xiong Meng said with a smile, inviting them to sit down.

Xiao Yin sat down next to him generously. The seat opposite them, which they usually sat in, was already occupied, so he could only sit next to Xiao Yin.

After the three sat down, Xiong Meng asked, "By the way, what was Apollo's subordinate trying to say just now?"

"Ah, this..."

Apollo looked at the three who had just arrived. The young master was alright, but were the other two suitable to be here?

There are outsiders here. Was Dr. Satoshi Ishida doing this intentionally or unintentionally?

Noticing Apollo's hesitation, Xiao Yin followed his gaze to the two people with their heads down. After a few seconds of awkward silence, Xiao Yin suggested, "If there's anything that Brother Apollo can't say, we can go to another table."

After saying that, he prepared to get up and leave, which moved Rika and Ichiki to tears. They looked at him with teary eyes. During this time, they also knew where they were. It was Team Rocket, the largest yakuza organization!

Who is this little silver guy in front of me? He's the son of the Rockets' leader, the prince!

They were rescued thanks to luck, otherwise they would have been following the masked man. Who is this person in front of them? It's Apollo, the leader of Team Rocket's four executives, and Athena, another executive!

It's so touching that Xiao Yin is saying this for them!

Xiong Meng held Xiao Yin down. "Alright, you've already called me teacher, so just say what you need to say."

The two stared blankly at the composed Xiong Meng, unable to react for a moment.

"Alright, since Brother Ishida Satoshi has said so, then I'll get straight to the point."

Since the other party had said that, what could Apollo say? He could ignore what the young master said, but he couldn't ignore what his older brother, Satoshi Ishida, said.

"Well, it's like this. Boss Sakaki's behavior has been strange lately, so I went to ask him about it, but Boss Sakaki told me to ask you instead."

Apollo's respect is clear, mainly because Boss Sakaki's recent orders have been too strange. Not only have funds been diverted to focus on the market, but things have become even more erratic.

I understand, young master, but it's still like this lately, with no sign of stopping.

Most importantly, Boss Sakaki suddenly ordered all members not to do anything bad, and even Lance was warned not to do anything wrong again.

They also require everyone on the Rockets team to have a job, including management! He and Athena are now both assigned to security personnel.

They're the Rockets, so why can't they do bad things? If they can't, then they're not the Rockets.

If you have any doubts, just ask. Boss Sakaki told him to ask Dr. Satoshi Ishida, and that's how it was.

"Is this also true for Athena's cadres?"

"Ahem, I have a pretty good relationship with Apollo, so I've come to ask for his advice." Athena finished speaking and took out a USB drive, placing it on the table and pushing it towards the camera. "Here's a complete list of all the games on the market; please accept it."

Can he say that he usually plays with Heracross and Mudkip most of the time? Oh well, it's not a big deal for a trainer to take the blame.

"Cough cough, I'm a little thirsty."

"Pear Blossom, pour me a cup of tea. Yishu, get me some dessert. Today, your share of dessert is mine."

"Sigh~"

"What are you 'hey' for? Don't you even know who's here? You expect to listen without offering anything in return?"

When the others returned, Xiong Meng took a sip of tea and said, "Actually, I can't answer your questions. I can only offer some opinions."

"First of all, can you two understand Mr. Sakaki's recent actions? Please share your thoughts."

After a moment of contemplation, Apollo spoke first: "We should prepare to make money; the more money we have, the bigger the Rockets will be."

Athena: "When we seize the market, we can use this against the opposing alliance so they can't touch it no matter what."

Xiong Meng shook his head and nodded at this answer, saying, "It's both right and wrong."

"Mr. Sakaki is probably preparing to transform the Rockets, which means he's going to whitewash them. We should reconsider this situation."

"Cleared out!" The two were shocked. How could this be? Why would Boss Sakaki want to clear his name?

The two suddenly saw Xiao Yin, the young master who had always been kind and righteous since childhood.

I see... That's the only reason, isn't it?

The two quickly figured it out and began to think about it seriously.

"Earn more money and become stronger, so I can always be there to help Boss Sakaki!"

"That makes sense!"

Athena wholeheartedly agreed with Apollo's words.

"Sigh, if it were before, you two would have been a perfect match, and becoming the branch base leader would definitely have been no problem."

"But things are different now. Think about Boss Sakaki's management style, and think about the recent expansion speed."

Management? They haven't paid attention to that. They just know the development speed is quite fast, but why ask this?

The two seemed to be thinking, but remained silent.

Xiong Meng immediately sensed their emotions and sighed helplessly, realizing he had been putting these two guys in a difficult position.

"At the current pace, Mr. Sakaki will have completed his dominance in the Kanto and Johto regions within three years at most, and then he will definitely expand outwards."

And you should note that Mr. Sakaki doesn't like to be outwardly expressive; even now, it's mostly his secretary, Manori, who comes out in public.

"But a real bird is just a person, and its energy is limited. Do you understand?"

After Xiong Meng finished speaking, he took a bite of dessert. If he still didn't understand, then things would get complicated.

Apollo and Athena are truly deep in thought this time. To dominate the market, you need an organization or company. Boss Sakaki doesn't like to be in the open, and Makoto is his personal secretary.

That is to say!

"Each region needs a person in charge?" Apollo wondered, wasn't this the same as before?

"Throat~"

A sigh made the two people in front of him feel somewhat awkward.

"Times are changing. Once you clear your name, it doesn't mean the Rockets will stop doing bad things. What you need to do more is maintain Mr. Sakaki's model and ensure there are no problems in the market."

"At that time, we will need more than just people who can fight; we will need managers who are versatile."

Do you understand now?

Apollo and Athena: (Simple, goofy face)

"Teacher, just say what you want to say. It's normal here for people not to have attended much school, and schools can't teach this anyway."

Xiao Yin stepped in to help, realizing that the teacher had overestimated everyone's academic level, even though many students didn't attend school.

"Sorry, I was overthinking it." Xiong Meng covered his forehead.

He forgot that not going to school is the norm in this world, and traveling at age 10 is normal, so what other reasons are there?

Oh, here, strength is all that matters. As for strength, bonds are more important than anything else.

That's fine.

For a moment, everyone except Xiao Yin blushed, suddenly feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Then I'll be frank. There will definitely be a key person in charge in each region. This person in charge will be different and will need to understand Mr. Sakaki's arrangements and plans."
