"Principal Gui..."
After returning to Island 6 from Celadon City, Shen Qi arranged to meet Principal Gui to discuss the Pokémon Resort.
During the Spring Race, Shen Qi had already passed on what he had heard from Gladion to Principal Gui. After looking into it, Principal Gui had indeed heard that the Kanto Pokémon Breeders Association planned to establish a Pokémon Resort in the open sea.
Several months earlier, they had inspected Little Orange Island and Kinkan Island, both of which were keen on the idea. Those two places were indeed too commercially developed to be suitable.
None of this news had reached the Sevii Islands.
The Sevii Islands were overlooked by major projects. Apart from Islands 1 and 2, whose economies did reasonably well thanks to their piers, only Island 3 and Island 5 had made something of themselves in recent years through the wildly popular Berry Forest and Luxury Resort.
Talent remained scarce, especially high-level talent in management and Pokémon breeding.
The Pokémon Breeders Association and the Aether Foundation often partnered with colleges to establish Pokémon Resorts, ensuring a steady supply of talent while providing the schools with internship opportunities. It was a win-win situation.
But... no one had ever considered Pokémon High School.
"Principal Gui, we have Cassidy and Qianhui now. They hold official Pokémon Breeder Licenses. We really could try competing for it."
"Hohoho, Shen Qi, you're better suited than I am to thinking about where Pokémon High School should go."
With those words, Principal Gui truly handed Shen Qi the reins.
He... really was tired. His strength no longer matched his ambitions, and he couldn't keep working.
"Principal Gui, it was thanks to your guidance that I started working toward a career in Pokémon work."
Shen Qi's connections could certainly help Pokémon High School develop
