Chapter 452: Championship Ball
"What kind of ball is this?" Heath became interested. Speaking of the Siluf Company, they are most famous for the Poké Balls, all kinds of Poké Balls. As a leading company that studies and almost monopolizes the Poké Ball industry, the Siluf Company can be said to be rich enough to rival a country. However, the Siluf Company is also researching many other projects at the same time, so the annual financial report does not save much money. Heath once saw the financial report of the Siluf Company that was made public. Research funds accounted for 80% of the net profit, which was an outrageous proportion.
Heath felt that this might be the way for Siluf Company to survive. After all, even the cute Slowpoke knew that if it occupied a good hunting spot all the time, it would be targeted by other Pokémon. As the leading enterprise in the Kanto region, Siluf Company's wealth accumulation had reached a level that made the Alliance wary. If it didn't want to be caught by the Alliance, the best way was to invest all its money and do some good things.
Heath never thought that the Alliance was a good organization. In Heath's view, the Alliance was the largest organization, but this organization was relatively friendly to civilians. However, to the Hiruf Corporation, the Alliance was like Team Rocket, which could turn evil at any time. Once it threatened the Alliance, it would become the enemy of the Alliance.
Heath heard that the Poké Ball production lines in other alliance regions were all in the hands of the alliances in each region, and they were making huge amounts of money with very cheap patent fees, but the Siluf Company had no objection to this at all.
I guess they wouldn't dare to have any opinions. After all, compared with the Alliance, the Shiluf Company is still a little small.
However, Poké Balls are the main industry of the Siluf Company after all, so Heath would not feel anything wrong if Siluf Company developed some strange Poké Balls.
"This thing is amazing~" Miss Nami said with a smile, and then handed a user manual to Heath. Heath was stunned after reading it. It was rare to have a Poké Ball with a user manual. Aren't the Poké Balls produced by Siluf Company all fool-proof? Just press a switch and throw it out, and it's done.
Heath felt that this might also be to make it easier for trainers to operate. Otherwise, the Poké Ball would be too complicated and would be more troublesome to operate.
But Heath still took it and after looking at it carefully, Heath discovered the usage and some special features of this thing. Seeing this, Heath's expression became strange.
According to the instruction manual given by Miss Nami, the temporary name of this Poké Ball is [Champion Ball]. It is a summary of the research results of the Siluf Company. The capture rate is as high as 80%. If the Pokémon can be paralyzed or put to sleep, the capture rate will be as high as 100%. This reminds Heath of the Master Ball. Heath knew that the Siluf Company was researching the Master Ball. Miss Nami had mentioned it before, but Heath really didn't expect that there was such a thing as a Champion Ball?
"This Champion Ball... looks pretty powerful." Heath could only say this insincerely. Heath was not very enthusiastic about catching wild Pokémon. After all, Heath did not intend to become a trainer. The biggest goal of catching Pokémon was to reach an agreement with the Pokémon before catching them. Therefore, the Pokémon that Heath had caught so far were basically captured directly with ordinary Poké Balls. He had not yet encountered any that needed to be captured by force.
"Of course, but this is not the most powerful Poké Ball! Our company is already researching it. When it's developed, we'll give you one. This is the decision of the chairman!" Miss Nami said with a smile. In fact, the Master Ball, which has not yet been released and is even just a plan, is a real gift. Heath's idea is very good, and the company thinks this is a great development prospect, so they let Nami come over.
Heath quickly expressed his excitement, but he really had no interest in these balls. However, seeing how happy Miss Nami was, Heath held back for a long time and did not reveal his emotions. Although he really wanted ask Nami if he could exchange them for cash, in that case...
At this moment, a guest came into Heath's dining car. When Nami saw this, she ordered a meal of Heath's Three Kingdoms limited set meal, and then sat down to wait for her meal. She knew very well that Heath must be busy now.
In fact, Heath was indeed very busy. There were quite a lot of guests today, even too many. This was also related to the ancient Pokémon that were resurrected in the Deep Gray City Science Museum. Heath even felt that he was about to fly away from work. However, the huge sums of money in his pocket made Heath's mood much better. Heath was busy until the afternoon, and he didn't even have any rest time in the middle. Heath was so tired that his hands were cramping, which reminded Heath of the days in Green Ridge City some time ago.
"Sure enough, I'm making too much money and my body can't take it anymore." Heath slumped on the ground. All his ingredients had been sold out, and even the ice drinks made by Snorlax sold a lot. Snorlax was so tired that he fell to the ground and fell asleep. Heath was even more exhausted, and the sweat on his body was enough to wash his clothes.
So while the business was closed, Heath went back to his room, changed his clothes, and took a shower.
"Good afternoon, Heath." A familiar voice. Heath, who had just changed his clothes, washed the dishes and put them aside, then looked up and saw that it was Mr. Sakaki.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Sakaki. Are you here for dinner?" After taking a quick shower, Heath felt a little more energetic. Although he had closed the shop, Heath still told people he was more familiar with, such as Sister Feng and Sakaki, that they could come in directly.
"Well, Jun Shafeng and the others are preparing for the evening security patrol, so they don't have time to come over for the time being, but they asked me to bring back some dinner." Mr. Sakaki looked a little darker today. Heath thought it might be because Mr. Sakaki had been basking in the sun.
Heath felt that if there were more activities like this, if Sakaki accidentally traveled to the former Lighthouse Country in the future, he would probably be sent to grow cotton.
"Is that so? Okay, but I need to replenish some ingredients." Heath said with a smile. Sakaki waved his hand, and the next second, a Nidoking walked in with a large bag of ingredients in its hand.
Heath was stunned for a moment, then laughed. It seemed that Mr. Sakaki was ready.
