Chapter 140: I Didn't Lose or Gain

"Piplup Flash Pay received, 5 million yuan."

With the arrival message popping up on the phone, a red number also appeared on Piplup-Chat.

【Is Aerodactyl really a dragon?】: Brother Su~ all my savings are here. My future partner depends on you~? (′??? `) Heart.

【Is Aerodactyl really a dragon?】: If there's a premium, please help me pay for it, Brother Su~ I'll immediately ask my dad and mom for money╮(╯▽╰)╭.

【Pokémon Master】: Doubling words, disgusting.

Due to the limit of six Pokémon before the Professional level, Su Hao didn't intend to collect Pokémon with overlapping attributes, so even if he was greedy for Charizard and Greninja, he could only endure it.

Last night, when he was bragging on the phone with Li Hua, he casually mentioned that he was going to attend an auction today and the items being sold at the auction.

Context: Li Hua is a man who wants to become a Flying-type Elite Four. Pokémon that can fly are all within his range of choices, including one of the auction items this time—Charmander.

Although Charmander won't fly in the first stage and the second stage (Charmeleon), as long as it evolves to the third stage, it can grow wings and become a Fire + Flying-type Pokémon—Charizard.

Charizard, a starter Pokémon with excellent aptitude that can be ridden, is naturally also a Pokémon on Li Hua's list of Pokémon he wants to collect in his Flying-type Elite Four career.

Upon hearing that Charmander was appearing in the auction Su Hao was attending, Li Hua had ideas and tried to bid for it.

Li Hua's parents were both experienced Professional-level Trainers. His family wasn't too rich; he couldn't afford a pseudo-legendary, but a starter Pokémon was no problem.

The starting price of Charmander was 1 million Shenzhou coins, and the market price was around 5 million Shenzhou coins, with some with excellent aptitude selling for around 6 million.

Su Hao's Incineroar, as a high-quality starter Pokémon carefully selected within the Alliance, if other Fire-type starter Pokémon of the same period were sold, he guessed the price might be even higher.

Su Hao felt that his family still had some money; his father could even spend his own Alliance contribution points in the internal system to specifically exchange for a Fire-type starter Pokémon for his second Pokémon.

However, among the three, Jiang Chengcheng was the richest. The patents for various techniques and manuals of her family's dojo could steadily bring in one or even multiple "100 million" every year.

According to Jiang Chengcheng, her family also had a rule.

Before the Pokémon reaches the Elite level, besides the normally consumed nutritious food, it is not allowed to use resources to help the Pokémon grow.

She said that her family's ancestral teachings say this would lead to an unstable foundation for martial arts Pokémon.

Otherwise, with Jiang Chengcheng's financial resources, cultivating her starter Pokémon to reverse-slay that girl—whose name Su Hao forgot—and her Psychic-type Pokémon would be no problem.

But there was a variable Su Hao had to consider.

As far as he knew, the final evolution of Charmander, Charizard, was not only his father's ace but also the ace Pokémon of the current Champion of the Shenzhou Alliance—Liao Xingchen.

Su Hao was worried that the celebrity effect would bring variables beyond the budget...

As expected of Charizard, it is very popular in any world.

"The auction of props and items ends here. Next, we will proceed to the auction of young Pokémon and Pokémon eggs."

Before he knew it, the auction was halfway through, and next was the occasion for various rare Pokémon.

"The rare Dragon-type Pokémon—Druddigon's Pokémon egg."

"It is in its final form as soon as it is born, and can become an immediate combat force in the hands of the juniors in your homes. As the saying goes, one step ahead, every step ahead!"

"Starting price 1 million Shenzhou coins, with a minimum bid increment of 1,000 Shenzhou coins!"

The bidding for rare Pokémon eggs was much more intense than when auctioning props before.

Almost as soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, the VIPs participating in the auction couldn't wait to report the price.

"1 million 1 thousand Shenzhou coins!" ===== CHAPTER 141 =====
