"Hmm... Level 39 shows that this Kingler is not the leader of this area. But, she is of the same species as the leader of this area. So it is safe to assume that she is somehow related to the leader."
Alex thought of an idea. He slowly walked with his Pokémon in the direction of the group of this Pokémon bathing in the sun.
Kingler, the leader, showed a wary expression as she saw Alex and his Pokémon getting closer. Kingler is a relatively hostile Pokémon species. It's not a Pokémon that doesn't respond to provocations.
She immediately showed a ready to fight expression when she saw that Alex was only 15 meters away.
Alex just smiled and said, "Hello there! I am not looking for any trouble. I have come here just to suggest something if you are willing to listen."
Kingler answered in the Pokémon language, and Alex understood it immediately via Telepathy of Kirlia.
"What do you want?"
Alex was happy to see that this Kingler was willing to listen to him.
"I want to trade some of the items of your collection."
Kingler is known to collect glittering things, so Alex thought this group must have found many treasures in the sea which can be useful. Although most things are probably worthless, he doesn't think all of these items are useless.
Kingler gave a sour expression as she yelled, "You want my treasure!!! You can forget about that right away. This won't happen."
Alex, who was expecting this, brought out a large bag of excellent Pokémon food.
Excellent Pokémon food is one of the few edible items for almost all Pokémon in this world. Even Ghost Pokémon can relatively enjoy this food. While it's not as effective and tasty as the food for a specific Pokémon species, it's not much worse either. Like the food from the Excellent Food line, after long periods of eating, it can also improve the potential of a Pokémon that eats it.
He had bought Excellent Pokémon food enough to last for 6 months. So that he can give the best food immediately to the Pokémon he caught. But now that he saw a Kingler, he thought of this good idea.
Alex continued explaining his proposition. "But I probably have something you would be interested in. Here, try it."
He took out a small pouch and threw it in the direction of Kingler.
Kingler recognized that this was not an attack and immediately caught it. She opened the bag with her claws and peeked curiously to see what's inside.
When she saw food, she looked disappointed in the direction of Alex.
"Just food! You want to swap my treasures for food?" She started getting angry at the end of the sentence.
"Even though it's food, it's a high-quality food that you've never eaten. Plus, after a long period of eating, it can improve the potential of a Pokémon. I think you should understand how valuable this food is."
Kingler was amazed for a moment after hearing this.
"Really? How can I know that you are not lying to steal my treasures with your food? You, humans, are known for your lies. I can't put my trust in you."
Alex, who heard this, showed a solemn expression. "You can easily find this out by eating the food. Although it may not improve your potential immediately, you should notice that this food improves your body slightly. Although I recommend giving it to a member of your group with poor potential. So that it is easier to distinguish whether it can improve the potential or not."
Kingler showed a thoughtful expression when she heard these words from Alex's mouth.
She took the food that Alex gave her and gave it to one of her nephew, whose potential was bad.

Alex saw the Kingler giving the food to a Deep Normal Krabby and smiled. The worse the potential is, the more apparent the effect of the food will be. And with a little bit of luck, Krabby might turn into Shallow Bronze Krabby this moment.
The level 5 Krabby ate the food and suddenly felt his whole body getting stronger. He was thrilled with his newfound strength.
Kingler was very good at assessing the potential of her species. She recognized that her nephew had really improved his potential right away.
She showed a serious expression and looked in the direction of Alex Pokémon. When she realized that Alex was a bit too strong to rob safely, she said, "Ok, I'm ready to trade. What do you want for the food?"
"Ahh, I'm not sure. Please show me what you've got."
Kingler nodded and asked the second strongest Kingler to fetch her treasure. The Kingler immediately went into the water.
"Hmm... It will take a while before he brings my treasures here."
Alex nodded and said, "No problem. While we wait, we can have our younger family members fight each other for combat experience. What do you say?"
Kingler looked at the Torchic and nodded.
Then she said something to the Krabby, who had just become a Shallow Bronze Pokémon.
Krabby nodded and stood in front of the group in a ready-to-fight stance.
