Jim had jumped off Snorlax stomach and ran to Alex. He arrived near him and said with excitement," Alex, you were so cool back there. Can I become as strong as you? can I, can I ?"

Alex just rubbed his head in embarra.s.sment and said, " Of course as long as you are willing to work hard and believe in your companion, your Houndour. He won"t lose to my Pokemon in the future." He looked at the quadruple animal who was looking at him with admiration, awe and respect.

And then an additional weight was experienced by Alex, as Pikachu and Swablu both of them have claimed their position.

Alex just smiled at that and met Mathew midway who was bring congratulated by his family. His uncle and grandpa were there and awaited his arrival. Looking at his appearance, Mathew greeted with a smile.

" Alex, you did wonderful out there." His grandpa praised him.

" We are really lucky to see battle at this level. To see a battle of this level is really rare. " His uncle, Gray added his thoughts.

Electabuzz was standing at the side ad Snorlax stood nearby or more like laid on the ground.

Mathew handed him the gym badge and said"you are strong enough to earn the gym badge so take it."

Alex looked at another three star badge and then put it in his pocket.

Jim pulled his s.h.i.+rt"s sleeves and asked curious why he got the badge even if he lost the battle," Alex you lost, so why did you get the gym badge!"

" A trainer can get the gym badge as long as he shows enough ability required for the gym badge. So even if you lose, if you can make the gym leader feel you have the capability, you will get the gym badge ." He explained the reason behind it.

" You are stronger than rumoured, Alex " Mathew said about Alex, while Alex just smiled at that.

" What do you mean, dad?" Daisy asked her father.

" Alex had grown stronger in the past few months. " He simply stated without revealing anything.

" Alex here have a reputation in Kanto and almost every gym leader know about his existence. Some of his pokemon"s existence are also known to us.

But, Gyarados as well as tentacruel presence was an unknown existence. They can easily defeat any advanced level Pokemon and had a fifty percent chance against an elite pokemon.

These pokemons are his hidden ace. And these are only water types. There are Pikachu and Swablu too who are at least intermediate level." he thought while looking at the two pokemons who were seated on his shoulder and head.

" even if he had only this strength then it would work for that matter."

He looked at his wife who felt his eyes on her. They communicated quietly and came to a decision which Mathew had made everyone known.

" Alex, how long are you staying in the Cerulean city?" Mathew asked.

Alex c.o.c.ked his head sideways thinking why he asked this question and then answered,"My cousin got his starter pokemon yesterday but because of my match today, we decided to head out today after the battle. Is there something?"

" Yes. I need a favour from you." He said.

" Favour? What favour?"

Daphne continued after that," You see Daisy here is of the age to start her official trainer career. But, we fear she cannot take care of herself out there as we sheltered our kids a bit too much, so we hope you can guide her for sometime before she can get herself aquainted with the ways of the trainer. "

Seeing Alex with a hesistant look, her husband Mathew joined to convince and said,"For taking care of her, we will reward you . I think you will definitely like it. I promise you she won"t cause you much trouble. "

"But I am already looking after Jim here, I don"t think I can look after her as well. " Alex tried to dissuade them.

But Mathew was adamant, he take care of her and stated," What I fear for is her security. With you present, they won"t be in any danger, as for the rest of the things children should be able to take care of themselves. "

Alex was still hesistant and so his grandpa James joined them in convincing and said,"Alex, I think it will be good if you help them too. After all Jim will also have someone to compare with and grow stronger together. "

Then he came close and said softly," I also think with your talents some people may cause trouble for you later, with his support you will have much easier time dealing with them."

Although he said softly, it was still heard by the Waterflower couple, while Daisy didn"t feel anything wrong, but Mathew burst out laughing at the prospect of Alex needing his help.

With the support of Oak laboratory behind him, the forces which can cause trouble won"t do so especially when he is showing off his potential, as for others they can be easily dealt by Alex.

" Is everything right?" Gray by his father"s side asked not knowing why he was laughing.

Daphne herself was confused by this and looked at her husband for answer but he just shook his head.

" So, do you agree Alex?"Mathew asked the young genius earnestly.

Alex took a deep breath and agreed,. " Fine. I will guide her for a couple of months. "

" Good. Then she will join you tomorrow to start if you don"t mind."

" It"s ok. My Pokemon need to rest and can be up and ready by tomorrow ." He said.

The object of the conversation jumped into the talks of adults and said," Hey, why aren"t you asking for my opinion. I don"t need anyone"s help. And I am not travelling along with this idiot."

" Idiot? Who are you calling an idiot? And who told you I want to travel with you." He shouted back.

Before things could escalate Alex fist hammered on Jim stopping him while he told Daisy," I already discussed with your parents and since they said so I hope you will be with us for two months and after that you can go back to travelling alone. "

Daisy looked like she wanted to argue but her mother"s gaze said there won"t be any further discussion on this topic and she reluctantly said,. "Fine. I will go with you tomorrow."

And the Waterflower family and Alex and his family parted ways. Alex deposited his Pokemon in the Pokemon center where the nurse joy stated to take them back after a few hours. Alex gave her his number to call back when they were healed while he returned to his uncle"s house.

-----------------------------------------------------

In the Gordon"s house,

" So why did you return back, Alex, Jim ? Weren"t you going to leave today?" His grandma, h.e.l.la asked.

His uncle answered for Alex," Alex pokemons are injured in the gym battle and so he had wait one more day in the Cerulean city."

" So how did the battle go?" h.e.l.la asked curiously.

Before anyone could reply, Jim started his narration of the battle. Some things felt too much so the ladies of the house looked at their husband for affirmation which they did.

After the story ended, Jenny said," Alex you are very powerful. I am relieved to let him follow you."

Alex just smiled and said," I still lost in the end. There are still many people stronger than me. Don"t think much about that superficial t.i.tle I have got. I haven"t even fought any genius of the other regions so this role is just a hox. Also, I am really hungry, can I have lunch now?"

" of course you can. A growing boy must have all the nutrients he need for his growth. Especially after such a energy draining battle. I am tired just from hearing it and you partic.i.p.ated in it. " His grandma stated.

The Gordon"s started to have lunch.

-----------------------------------------------------

With the Waterflower ,

After picnic in the evening,

Violet asked her father cutely and with sobbing expression," Daddy, is big sis leaving us?"

Lily herself had such an expression, so Mathew pull them in a hug and said " She wants to see the world and you don"t want to stop her would you."

They both shook their head and said, " it would be selfish."

He rubbed their back to console them," Good then don"t cry to bade your sister farewell with a smile "

While Mathew dealt with his two daughters, Daphne was looking over Daisy and making sure she packed everything. Before leaving, Alex gave her a brief rundown of the things she will be needing.

And Daphne supervised to make sure she had everything.

She then brought everyone together for dinner and after that the sisters with Misty went off to send their time together before parting.

After that, she and Mathew were left alone to discuss.

" Daisy had a seel with her but what other pokemon are you giving her. "

" I am thinking of giving her an Eevee and a marill. Do you think I should add some more." Mathew asked his wife.

" No. I think it is enough. She could catch the others herself. And what reward do you want to give, Alex?" She asked curiously.

Mathew released a pokemon from the pokeball and shown it to his wife," I was hoping to give it to Daisy too but I felt she isn"t ready yet. I can get her another one later. Do you think he will like it "

" A trainer like Alex will love it. I think this reward is appropriate too." Daphne said while she took the released pokemon in her hands.

" To think, Daisy is big enough to start her own journey. I hope she will be fine." She said emotionally.

Mathew face on the emotionless and he stated," We guarded her a lot. She needs to see the world for the time when we aren"t around. We cannot protect them forever. They need to grow ."

And Daphne hugged her husband looking over their kids who played among themselves for the last time before Daisy left.
