Sabrina was a bit confused.
She had casually clicked the "Join" button, and the next second, she was approved?
What left Sabrina even more baffled was that, unexpectedly, the group was full of familiar faces?!
Gold: New member, please share a no-makeup photo, your measurements, and your marital status.
Gold sent this message with practiced ease, then suddenly froze.
The next moment, a strange expression crossed Gold's face.
This ID... wasn't this the beautiful big sister who completely dominated Bugsy at the Silver Conference?
What kind of person is Natsume-sensei? How does he manage to bring in such peculiar people?!
Sabrina blinked, then a subtle smile appeared on her lips.
Sabrina: My measurements are...
[Group member 'Saffron City Leader' has been muted for 5 minutes by admin.]
The one who muted Sabrina was the admin, whose ID was 'Sevii Islands Lorelei.'
Old woman Lorelei, her face red, shouted as she typed:
"Don't just casually post stuff like that!"
Sabrina had thought that joining this group would just be a way to learn more about this potential executive.
But now, things had taken an unexpectedly interesting turn.
Glancing through the group list, she saw a series of familiar names.
Sabrina tucked her black hair behind her ear and chuckled softly.
"Indeed... the guidance of fate is never wrong."
Gold: Lorelei, you're too quick!
Seeing the word "auntie," Lorelei's temple twitched, and a vein popped on her forehead.
[Group member 'Gold' has been muted for 24 hours by admin.]
Gold stared at his phone, hands trembling, and slowly muttered two words.
Lance was in the middle of a league investigation mission.
Glancing at his phone, Lance frowned slightly.
Formerly one of Team Rocket's Three Executives.
Alongside Lt. Surge, Blaine, Koga, Karen, and Will, she had served under Giovanni.
Every time Lance recalled this list, he felt a chill run down his spine.
The extent to which Team Rocket had infiltrated the league back then was truly terrifying...
Shaking his head, Lance muttered to himself:
"Sabrina is currently a movie star... she's cut ties with Team Rocket. There's no need to dig deeper."
Still, Lance was curious.
He glanced at the group name again and murmured:
"Sabrina is also... a follower of 'Natsume-sensei'?"
Green: Oh, Sabrina! Long time no see!
Although Green had once tricked Sabrina by hiding Poké Balls in her chest, the two had fought side by side during the mission to rescue Red, guided by the Spoon of Destiny.
Overall, the Three Executives of Team Rocket were a mix of good and evil.
In these peaceful times, there was no need to dwell on the past.
Kanto Region, Pallet Town.
A girl with an orange ponytail puffed out her cheeks like a hamster as she looked at Sabrina's name in the group.
Blue Oak: Please follow the group rules. No NSFW content. Next offense will result in a 24-hour mute. @Sabrina.
Others get muted for 24 hours for inappropriate content, but I get muted just for calling someone "auntie"?!
"One day, I'll be an admin too!" Gold clenched his fists, making a solemn vow.
Natsume's eyes widened.
Where was the big romantic entanglement?
It just vanished like that?!
Natsume-sensei (in the gossip group): What's Red up to?
Natsume was slightly taken aback.
Red had effortlessly dodged a bullet.
"Is this what it means to be... The Battler?" Natsume muttered.
Lorelei: Gold, which city are you in? I'll be visiting Johto soon. Let's have a match (smile).
Natsume-sensei: He's at the Pokémon Day Care near Goldenrod City.
Lorelei: Got it, thanks, Natsume-sensei. (Red's Pikachu sticker)
Natsume's eyes lit up as he examined the sticker Lorelei had sent.
Hey, this sticker looks pretty good!
He added the rolling, cute Pikachu sticker to his collection.
Natsume stroked his chin and murmured:
"Maybe I should have Haunter and Eevee pose for a set of stickers too."
Suddenly, Natsume-sensei had an epiphany.
"If I charge for these stickers, I could make some money!"
Every little bit helps.
If I save a little every day, I'll eventually pay off my debts!
Natsume nodded in satisfaction.
"I can't miss out on the incentive program bonuses either... I'll record some more clips and edit the video!"
He had heard that some large companies used Porygon for editing tasks.
Natsume sighed deeply, once again feeling the value of Pokémon.
If only Haunter could learn to edit videos!
Grumbling aside, Natsume obediently opened Pokémon: Battle.
In his friends list, 'Cabbage Ice Cream' was the only one online.
Feeling a bit soft-hearted, Natsume typed: "Want to play a match?"
Natsume-sensei had forgotten that he and Cynthia were evenly matched.
Plus, Natsume-sensei was distracted, so his Poké Ball throws were slower than usual.
In the end, Natsume-sensei lost to Cynthia with two wins and three losses.
Not exactly great material for a video.
Cynthia had just finished a long day and was feeling tired.
But Natsume's invitation brought a faint smile to her lips.
The fiercely competitive Cynthia nodded and said with a smile:
"The honor was mine," Natsume-sensei replied humbly.
"How's your game coming along?"
Natsume sighed inwardly.
Though the current earnings still can't compare to what I'd make playing games with you all night...
Even though I mentioned having Cynthia do ads, she's still the Sinnoh Champion.
I'm not sure I can repay that kind of favor.
I don't mind owing money, but owing favors? That's something I try to avoid.
"Seems like I've already racked up quite a few..." Natsume muttered with a strange expression.
Cynthia nodded, not fully understanding.
She didn't know much about business, but she was happy to help Natsume-sensei if she could.
After exiting the chat, Cynthia murmured:
"Once things calm down... I'll help Natsume-sensei with some promotion."
Although Natsume had played five matches with Cynthia, the wins were hard-fought and didn't fit the usual "domination" theme of his videos.
Natsume looked up at the sky, then had a sudden idea.
"Of course... I'll have to ask Gold for help."
Natsume-sensei: You there?
Gold, still sulking from being muted for 24 hours, raised an eyebrow: What's up?
Natsume-sensei: I've got a new strategy. After careful consideration, I think you're the perfect opponent to test it against.
"After all, your skills are among the best in the group," Natsume-sensei flattered.
As expected, Natsume-sensei has good taste!
"Fine... I'll humor you with one match," Gold snorted.
Natsume-sensei: Want to go again?
Looking at the pile of '4-0' clips, Natsume nodded in satisfaction.
As expected of you, The Hatcher!
Natsume-sensei: Thanks for your hard work.
Gold was questioning his life.
Dirty strategies are one thing, but you're even good at fast-paced battles!
"It must be a fluke," Gold gritted his teeth.
"I refuse to believe it. One more match!"
It was almost midnight.
Natsume-sensei compiled the clips Gold had painstakingly provided and edited them into a video.
Natsume muttered with a hint of guilt:
"Next time... maybe I should give Gold a little something for his efforts."
But regardless, the video was finally finished.
Glancing at the drowsy Eevee on his lap, Natsume smiled and gently rubbed its head.
He clicked the "Upload" button.
