Chapter 23: Pokemon: I Transmigrated Twice [23]
"...Heh, I never thought the famous rising star of Team Rocket would see through our plan."
After a brief moment of shock, Eldna quickly composed herself, reverting to her usual coquettish tone.
"To have defeated so many of my subordinates without a trace... you must have used that Poke ball disruptor, right?"
The Poke Ball disruptor was already public knowledge, as the Pokémon League had informed the public through news reports. It was simply too dangerous to keep a secret. Ordinary people already had the disadvantage when facing Team Rocket, and if they couldn't even use their Pokémon, they'd be nothing but helpless prey. After much deliberation, the League decided to expose the device.
"A genius scientist like you, Joker, staying in a brute-force organization like Team Rocket is such a waste. Why not join us in Shadow?"
Elena's smile grew sly.
"This is the true paradise for researchers~"
Even through his mask, the others could sense the thick disdain in Stephen's faintly curved lips. It wasn't surprising.
During Ash's prime era, no one had even heard of an organization called "Shadow."
The reason?
Only one—by the time Ash embarked on his journey, this organization had already been obliterated, either by the League or by Team Rocket.
