Pokémon: Join Team Rocket at the Beginning

Pokémon World, Kanto Region, Boulder City.

This is a small city adjacent to Nibi City. Although it is not as prosperous as those big cities, it also exudes vitality. The high-rise buildings rising from the ground in the city center are showing the new look of the city.

However, in the suburbs far away from the city, a pale and thin young man is stumbling.

This is the third day since Yang Ming traveled to this world.

He thought that this world would be as warm and beautiful as in the animation. There will be gentle Miss Joy in the Pokémon Center to provide free food and accommodation, and everyone can get their own Pokémon and Poké Balls.

And what is the truth? It is true, but the premise of all this is that you need to have your own trainer ID card.

The trainer ID card is an identity card issued by the alliance. Every child in the Pokémon world will get his own ID card at the age of ten and receive his first Pokémon, and then embark on the journey of becoming a Pokémon trainer.

Unfortunately, as a time traveler who came here due to a car accident, Yang Ming obviously does not have such a thing.

In this world, the league highly respects the profession of trainer. Every trainer who has his own Pokémon and ID card can enjoy the league's meticulous care on the road, free food, free accommodation, free medical care and even monetary rewards, nothing is lacking.

But on the contrary, if you don't have your own Pokémon, you are not a trainer, and naturally you can't enjoy these benefits; and without a trainer ID card, it means that you are an illegal resident in this world, and you can't even find a regular job.

Yang Ming wandered around the Boulder City for three days, hitting a wall everywhere, and couldn't even eat a full meal. He was so hungry that his chest was sticking to his back.

He realized that this was not the Pokémon world he was familiar with.

Compared with the utopian Pokémon world he was familiar with, this place was not so friendly.

Yang Ming came to the river and looked at his reflection, which looked a little malnourished because of hunger. He knew that if he didn't make a decision, it would only be a matter of time before he starved to death on the street.

After three days of investigation, Yang Ming has determined that there are only two ways out for illegal immigrants like himself: 1. Work illegally. There are many self-employed individuals and small workshops on the edge of this city that will recruit illegal immigrants without identity as employees. Working illegally for them will not only ensure food and clothing, but at least you will have a meal; 2. Join the underground organization Rocket Team.

The first option has been ruled out by Yang Ming.

These jobs that recruit illegal workers not only have extremely low wages and very bad working environments, but also have risks in the work content, and life safety is not guaranteed.

Come to think of it, in this world, Pokémon as a labor force is obviously much better than humans. Those businesses willing to hire illegal immigrants obviously use them as cheap consumables.

There is only one option left - join the Rocket Team.

In Yang Ming's cognition, Team Rocket is an evil organization in the Pokémon animation/game, specializing in snatching other people's Pokémon. Presumably, Team Rocket in this world is not a good bird.

But there is one thing that makes him very concerned - Team Rocket is very ostentatious in this city, and has no intention of hiding itself at all.

This morning, he also saw a female member of Team Rocket with big waves and wearing a miniskirt standing at the door of an abandoned store and waving to him, wanting to recruit him.

At that time, Yang Ming was a little hesitant, and finally did not go with her.

Yang Ming did not join immediately because he had his own concerns. After all, Team Rocket is an evil organization that is hostile to the Alliance. Not only does it act insidiously and darkly, but joining them also means being hostile to the Alliance.

More importantly, as an underground organization with a great reputation in this world, what does Team Rocket recruit these black households for? It's nothing more than cannon fodder!

In other words, if you join Team Rocket, your life safety is also not guaranteed. ——Until this morning, Yang Ming thought so.

But after three days of setbacks, Yang Ming knew that with his illegal status, he could never find a regular and secure job!

Continue to wander around the city? The only thing waiting for him is starvation!

Work illegally, do high-intensity and extremely dangerous work in extremely harsh environments for a lifetime? There is no hope for such a life!

Only by joining the Rockets can his life have a slight turnaround. Even if he is still in danger of death, at least he can get his own Pokémon, and there is always a glimmer of hope for a comeback!

After a slight hesitation, Yang Ming clenched his fists and walked towards the direction of the abandoned shop in the daytime.

WithMemory, Yang Ming quickly found the abandoned shop. The female Rocket was still there. She was surprised to see Yang Ming. Then she shook her beautiful big waves and said with a smile: "What's wrong, brother? You came so late, I thought you were not coming?"

"You have to think clearly. There is no turning back after entering this room."

"I have thought clearly," Yang Ming gritted his teeth and said, "I will join you and will never regret it."

The female Rocket looked at him deeply and said, "Then you have to follow closely."

After that, she pulled up the shutter door of the abandoned shop behind her and led Yang Ming into the store.

After Yang Ming entered the store, he pulled down the shutter door behind him.

The store was very dark and filled with a pungent musty smell.

After entering the store, the female Rocket groped in the bare walls, as if looking for something like a switch.

"Damn it, this thing changes position every time you enter the door!"

She cursed for a while, and finally found the hidden switch.

As the switch was pressed, the floor of the store shook, and a narrow staircase appeared in the middle.

The female Rocket Team member went straight down the stairs without saying a word, and Yang Ming followed closely behind.

The stairs extended downward in a spiral shape. Yang Ming walked all the way and found that the stairs were terribly deep. They walked for a while but still couldn't reach the end.

When Yang Ming reached the end of the stairs, he had come to a very empty space.

The four walls of the space were all made of very solid unknown alloys, and there seemed to be several cameras in the corners watching his every move.

"I didn't expect that there was a different world under this store." Yang Ming sighed in his heart.

The female Rocket Team member said nothing, and took Yang Ming directly to a tall man and said, "Boss, this is the last one today."
