There are many types of advanced energy cubes, each with unique effects.

Evan has thousands of energy cube recipes in his mind, possibly even more.

As for the energy cube formula to be provided to Sophia, it requires careful consideration.

There are plenty of high-end energy cubes on the market today, but they all come at a high price.

So, should he create a low-cost product that even ordinary people can afford?

Evan quickly sifted through his mental collection.

An affordable energy cube could have a broad market appeal, especially among Trainers who want to strengthen their Pokémon.

This option would attract many, especially those with modest means.

If there were an energy cube that was both affordable and effective, a lot of people would definitely be interested.

After all, it's still an advanced energy cube, even if it's priced affordably.

With this in mind, Evan quickly narrowed down his options.

Several recipes for inexpensive yet highly effective energy cubes came to mind.

Advanced energy cubes, with consistent use, can gradually improve certain individual values of a Pokémon.

Now, which one should he select?

An Attribute-boosting cube? No, that's too narrow.

If it enhanced all Attributes, it would be a top-tier energy cube, not just an advanced one.

Not ideal.

Improving a single Attribute could work, but only a limited audience would be interested.

Not good enough.

A beauty-enhancing cube? That would only attract Contest Trainers.

Contest participants generally have ample resources and likely access to even better items.

Pass.

Boosting intelligence? That might be promising.

It's a candidate.

Next, Evan considered enhancing strength, cuteness, defense, attack, speed, special attack, and special defense.

After reviewing many options, he ultimately chose a cube that boosts physical endurance.

Every Pokémon benefits from increased physical endurance, making this a versatile option.

It's an energy cube that anyone could buy.

With greater endurance, Pokémon would have a better chance in battles.

No need to overthink skill compatibility or other details.

This is the one.

With his decision made, Evan opened his laptop and started typing the recipe for the chosen energy cube.

When it's ready, he'll pass it along to Sophia.

While writing, Evan's mind wandered to other considerations.

How should he run his breeding house?

What if, initially, no one entrusts him with their Pokémon?

Does he need to establish a name for himself?

Then again, if his reputation becomes too great too quickly, he might struggle to manage the influx.

After careful thought, Evan made his decision.

Take the elite route.

There's no need to cater to Pokémon with lower levels.

After all, there's not much to gain from them.

These Trainers are often so frugal that they'd want to stretch a dime into a quarter. Expecting them to spend generously? Wishful thinking.

Only by taking the elite route can you make real money.

But how should the elite route be approached?

Evan thought of Sophia, a wealthy woman. Maybe he could get her to entrust her Pokémon to his care.

Then, with her endorsement, she could influence other wealthy Trainers to do the same.

This plan seemed promising.

If he wanted people to bring their Pokémon to him, he needed something attractive, right?

A Master Breeder certificate, perhaps?

After thinking for a moment, Evan dismissed the idea.

It would take too long—at least two years until the next certification exams.

That wouldn't work; he needed something faster.

Then what about registering some patents?

Yes... After pondering, Evan hit on an idea.

He could write down a few unique recipes and register them as patents.

Once he had them, he could ask Sophia to spread the word that his energy cubes are exclusive, ones even money can't buy elsewhere.

That would definitely intrigue the elite crowd.

If they left their Pokémon in his care, they could also help out with the orchards and other tasks.

And once their Pokémon were here, they'd surely need to buy energy cubes as well, right?

Maybe he could even let the Pokémon help with local deliveries?

The more he thought about it, the more potential he saw.

Evan couldn't help but smile.

Yes, it was a good plan.

From now on, Pokémon left in his care could assist with deliveries.

Well-known Flying Pokémon could train and, in turn, serve their Trainers better.

As expected, this would save a lot of costs.

With this plan set, Evan returned to his recipes, now writing with renewed energy.

Each recipe was over 2,000 words, filling dense pages.

He moved on to the second page, noting every detail of the process.

Every material combination had to be recorded.

Even without specific measurements, it was a lengthy process.

A tiresome task, indeed.

With so many recipes, Evan knew he wouldn't finish in a single night.

Over the next few days, Evan stayed busy with his work, writing recipes and organizing plans.

Occasionally, he would check on the construction progress of his facility.

The construction team hired by Sophia was highly professional.

In just a few days, the rough structure had taken shape.

Next, they would move on to decorating.

After the interior was finished, they'd start transforming the back hill to plant berry trees.

Evan had already provided the team with a list of fruit trees he needed.

Each type could thrive in this environment, so he intended to grow as many varieties as possible.

After all, Evan would be using most of the berries himself.

Relying on just one species and purchasing the rest? No chance.

Once his orchard was established, he wouldn't have to rely on anyone else.

Meanwhile, the energy cubes Sophia had obtained from Evan had started making their rounds.

After just a couple of days of promotion, many people were talking about them.

Several affordable but effective energy cubes were set to be released next.

This news sparked a lot of interest among local Trainers.

Sophia's family company was well-known in the area, with many loyal customers.

Now, hearing about these accessible energy cubes, many were eager to try them.

Who wouldn't want a better energy cube for a fair price?

Even Trainers who previously bought from other companies began to wait.

If the rumors were true, they'd consider switching brands.

As a result, demand for energy cubes from competing companies began to decline.

These companies were concerned.

They had all been on relatively equal footing, producing similar products.

But suddenly, a new competitor had emerged with a fresh advantage.

Where did this breakthrough come from?

Rumors spread quickly, and soon enough, these companies understood what was happening.

Frustrated, they cursed their luck.

"Darn it, what luck!!"
