He waited outside the main stands, barely able to see small glimpses of the three Gym leaders. He waited and when it was clear the show was slowly ended walked back to the Gym to wait.

He waited a while before the receptionist learned that they were back in the Gym and able to speak to him. Thanking the tired receptionist, he left to find the three Gym leaders, walking through the Gym he saw several aquariums with watery tunnels that lead out to other parts of the Gym.

He could see horsea, poliwag, seel, krabby, shellder, staryu, goldeen, remoraid, corphish and feebas. He even saw far rarer types like mudkip, totodile, oshawatt and clamperl. The sheer range of Pokémon living here far outstripped anything else Stlix had seen apart from the Stone's estate. Partially due to the fact that water-type was the most widespread and common type in the world. But even disregarding that the range that Cerulean Gym had collected was impressive.

Once he reached the three and saw them properly, he was reminded of someone else. He couldn't help but ask the question.

"Are you related to Misty?" Stlix asked quickly before he went to the business mareanie.

"Yes, we are. How, have you met the runt on the way here?" The blonde one said. "She wanted to become Gym leader with her own strength."

"Yes, she is on her own way here I believe, currently travelling with someone else. However as Gym Leaders would a mareanie in Kanto waters interest you." The blue haired one squealed when he mentioned the mareanie.

"Yes, yes bring it out, I wanted one but couldn't find the time to go to Alola." He handed her the pokeball before following up with.

"It was attacking a Corsola on the beach three miles from the city. I am currently over my carry limit so I cannot open it." The blue haired woman waved a hand dismissively before taking the pokeball over too a computer in the corner and tapping quickly. "I also had my starter knock it unconscious so it will need a potion or something." She didn't reply for a moment and neither did her sisters before she let out a sound of surprise and turned back to Stlix.

"Stlix Stone?" He let out a sigh, he kept getting into situations that prevented his plan of going more under the radar. He kept getting noticed and he did not like the feeling.

"Yes. That's me. To the mareanie, would you like it?"

"Yes, I would thank you and we will battle you this week from what I can see. However, are you using your first two Pokémon?" He gave a swift shake of his head at that, he battled Brock due to wanting to see a battle between a massive onix and steelix. He didn't want to destroy Cerulean or its aquariums.

"Good. Two badge battle with your more recent captures. You seem to be following in your cousins footsteps though. Steel, ground, and rock types fair badly against water types, are you sure you want to battle now?" He nodded his head and turned to leave.

He headed back to the Pokémon centre, he had to send the magikarp and Corsola to his Uncle. He was thankful, Joseph and set up a few acres of land with varied environments for any type he might capture, it includes a large lake for water types.

No other Pokémon currently lived in the area and any Pokémon he left there would be looked after by the metagross colony nearby along with Devon Corp employees. It was like Stlix's own space, he enjoyed spending time there with Buddy and Floaty before he left, and he had his own small house there to spend time with all his Pokémon.

Now Stlix was talking to his Uncle for two reasons.

"I really am sorry for asking you too but Silph has learned about you and now Devon corporation doesn't have a reason to refuse one of the Stone family seeing their monstrosity. They immediately said that a new trainer would fit in one of the tournaments being on board and gathered a Pokémon that might join your team." Stlix frowned in irritation, he knew going public with his last name would be irritating.

Not only was it the Devon corporation connection, which was currently bugging him, but people would compare him to his cousin. He didn't want to become Champion, he just wanted to adventure and spend time with his team. To see other Pokémon and the weird and interesting events that lay out there. He didn't want to constantly have to deal with difficulties the family name brought.

"I will." He sighed. "But currently I want to have Geodude examined and possibly Magikarp. It seemed really strange when I caught it."

"If you can go to Devon Corporation branch in Vermillion, we have sufficient facilities there, we can do an examination of both. I think if you can message Steven he will be there, he seems really interested in a possible change within a common Pokémon,"

Stlix could understand that, Steven and Stlix were similar in Pokémon that they were really fascinated by. Whilst Steven was a steel type master he was focused on ground and rock types as well along with his own hobby in looking at all types of minerals and rare stones and fossils.

Stevens team consisted of a metagross, a skarmory, an aggron, a bastiodon, a claydol, a cradily and more recently a duraludon, Steven had been gifted by one by Lance, and was extremely strong. That was solely his battle team, he had several other Pokémon that accompanied him upon his digs.

He wished to see Steven again, partially to apologise for creating more work for him with his confrontations in Mount Moon. He was also sure to talk to Steven about his new knowledge about his abilities, Steven would find it fascinating but Stlix didn't want others to find out about it.

Stlix then said his goodbyes before picking up his healed Pokémon before going to the exchange terminal. He had already talked to Floaty; he wanted the metagross go to the estate and help training any Pokémon also there.

Stlix kept Corsola with him for now but sent Magikarp and Floaty off for training, when he reached Vermillion City, he would bring them all back to see the results of the examination. He then turned to leave the city again for training, time to see the new member of the train and train the newer members more for Cerulea Gym.
