Alex was thinking about how much he might change in this whole ordeal and how serious the changes might be in the future?
When the talk with Blue ended, Claydol had already pulled down the soundproof barrier and seeing Alex in thoughts made the other occupants curious about his expression. He ignored their presence for some time until someone interrupted his thoughts.
It was Jim who asked him," Sir, is everything alright?"
" Yes, everything is alright, Jim. This call gave me various topics to think about later. Anyway, it can be pushed back now and let's begin with the matter at hands. "
" What I really want to know is what pokemon are most common in ten kilometers radius of our designated command area," Alex asked all his subordinates
It was Jean, his new secretary who answered his question," Sir, There are much ground, bug, flying, normal, rock and grass types can be found in the ten kilometers area. Do you need their specific species names or number too?"
" Yes, I want their names and numbers to create strategy pertaining to their total number. After all flying pokemon, Pokemon who walk on ground and pokemon who travel underground are three ways they may attack.
If I know some approximate numbers of their populations, I can know how many will attack in what fashion and how much forces I have to invest in that field.
Then I can get an edge over them by trapping them and eradication many of them even before the Pokemons could attack our walls." Alex explained his thoughts.
The second lieutenant nodded that if they know this information earlier, they too may help reduce some pressure on their troops.
" But sir the most accurate information will reach us only six hours before the actual attack begins so we can't get this news " replied Gold.
" That's why I asked about the concentration of different pokemon around the area. While comparing the data, I could have a rough idea of what percentage of pokemon would attack through the air, on land or through underground.
And with the knowledge of Daisy about different Pokemon, we can direct our troops to attack their weak spots so the attacks are more effective even if they are a type disadvantage. " Alex expressed his views
Most of the people there agreed with his views and felt this way they might be able to fight more effectively against the Pokemon.
But some have some doubts.
One of them was Dr. Armin Richards, the veteran doctor of the Corps," Sir although this is a very good idea but I don't think it is very feasible."
" What do you mean, Armin. This is a very good idea from the commander and it can prevent many unnecessary casualties and prevent the loss of human and pokemon life in the Tide.
So what problem do you have with this plan?" Asked the fiery fire specialist, Mark Thomas rudely.
Alex rose his hand to stop his fierce retort at the doctor. According to Alex's previous observation, he regards Armin as a calm and collected doctor as expected from any veteran of the Pokemon Tide who saw many too much darkness in his life.
So Alex felt he might have detected some problem which he might have overlooked.
" Let the doctor express his views. I brought of you here so you could give me your views and find defects in my plan, so that it would be more perfect and with lesser problems.
I think he might be onto something we all ignored. Please explain yourself. " Alex said to the veteran Doctor.
" I don't have any problem with the plan. It is a really good plan but you forgot something that is necessary for the plan to work."
" What did we overlook? It is very feasible. Every troop can follow the orders of their leader and we can have a higher rate of survival as compared to the previous riots." Asked John, the ground specialist of the Corp.
" Troops…. Troops troops. I see. So that's what I missed. Indeed, if we think about it we can only implement the plan at a much smaller scale than our previous plan and not many can get benefits from this." Alex mumbled to himself when he discovered the loophole in the plan.
Armin on hearing his words understood that the new Captain was smart and couldn't be underestimated due to his young age. He has also discovered the loophole he found in the plan.
" What is the problem that you both find here?" The bubblehead psychic specialist, Nora asked.
" Sir, should I explain it or would you do it?" Dr. Richards asked him.
" Since you discovered it first, I think you should explain it," Alex replied.
" The defect on this plan is the illiteracy of the troops. They aren't educated enough to differentiate between different types of pokemon. They can only distinguish between the type attributes of the Pokemons like flying, grass, electric etc from their attacks and not the types difference we have in theory.
But they can't differentiate between Pidgeot, pidgotto, fearow, or other Pokemon. Each of them has a different weakness. For them they are all just flying types and zapping then with thunder would do the trick.
And before knowing their weakness, one should be able to identify the pokemon. And this is the major problem we have here." Richards explained
" I still don't understand. The sergeants could still instruct and order the troops during the attack. " Daisy, the doctor intern experessed her thoughts.
" But how many pokemon do the sergeants know about? How can they distinguish one from the other pokemon? What are their academic qualifications or how much do they really know about pokemon? Can you be sure that you can teach them all about nearly a hundred different pokemon in such a short interval?" Alex asked them.
This time no one answered.
" Before speaking to any of you, I have already thought of the Pokemon which may participate in the Tide and the number reached nearly ninety different species of pokemon.
You only mentioned that ground, bug, flying, normal, rock and grass types but what about the occasional electric type, water type, ice type, fighting type, psychic type and even fire type Pokemon.
Although their number won't be much compared to the other types, they will still be a powerful game changer in the Tide.
We may face fire types such as herds of Ponyta or rapidash, slugma or even magcargo. houndour and houndoom found mainly in the Johto region but they could be here too.
In the pyschic group, there may be Abra line, Hypno line, Mr. Mime, or even grass psychic type Pokemon, exeggcute and exeggutor.
Then there are fighting type of Mankey line, Machop line and tyrogue line and electric type of elekid line, Pikachu line, voltorb and mareep line too.
They themselves number around twenty and we haven't mentioned the more prominent and wide variety of grass, ground, flying and bug type Pokemon.
Are all of you sure that you can know all these pokemon I mentioned and many more?" Alex asked
His answer was the deafening silence of his subordinate. None of them can guarantee that they know all the pokemon he mentioned and there are still many more he didn't mention which may participate in the Tide. Some of the names he spoke were the ones they have never heard in their entire life.
So no one could say he was confident.
Alex's plan has hit a roadblock and how will he overcome this roadblock? Stay tuned
