Trucks were coming in by the hundreds
it looked as prospective auctioneers and merchants drove truckloads of pokémon
into Celadon City. Most of them had sold pokémon stuff on the SS Anne
cruise and each one was happier that no obvious dangers lurked at this event.
After all, you can’t sink a city.
The auction would take place mainly in Celadon Square and
inside the pokécenter and Celadon City Mall. The first wave of merchants
set up their booths along the main road knowing people would have to pass
by. Among them was the Magikarp dealer from the SS Anne with a fresh
supply of Magikarp.
Merchants and auctioneers weren’t the only people entering
the city. Many Rocket agents were too. But instead of looting and
causing trouble, they were sweeping the roads and helping people set up.
Many Celadon residents were amazed when they saw how nice and human the Rockets
were acting.
“This sucks! I can’t believe the boss is making us go
through with this. We should be terrorizing the city. This is gonna
give us Rockets a bad name.”
“Quiet. We have to do this. Besides, we’ll get
our chance. There’s gonna be tons of trainers here. That’s a lot of
pokémon just waiting to be stolen. Now let’s get back to work.”
Meanwhile, back at Giovanni’s secret underground base
outside Celadon City, one of his top specialists entered the room. “You
have your orders. Make sure they are carried out flawlessly.”
“You can count on me sir.” The specialist left the
room.
Giovanni turned his attention to a smaller agent by the
door. “Make sure my suit is perfectly clean. I want to look my best for
tomorrow.” The agent nodded and left. “Ahh... This is going
to be the greatest scheme I’ve every concocted. There’s nothing that can
stop me now, fwahahaha...” He sat back in his chair.
