Investigator [Japanese: 捜査官, Sousakan, English: Rummager]

[Punish evil and promote good, insight into the truth, guardian of the people!]

————————————————————

The Investigator is a staff member of the Search Department, one of the armed divisions of the Pokémon Alliance Trainers, and is also one of the top players among all professional trainers.

An investigator is a very dangerous job. Their mission is to fight crime, fight against illegal organizations, and often fight criminals with strong force.

The profession is dangerous enough to make ordinary people jaw-dropping. Injuries are almost common for investigators, and the casualty rate is perennial.

The vast majority of their work overlaps with the Executive Department, but is more specific than the Executive Department. The word "execution" in the Enforcement Department means to carry out the instructions in a categorical manner, while the "search" in the Search Department requires itself to judge what should be done. The investigators can call on the power of the Executive Department to a certain extent, and their judgment directly affects the task assignment of the Executive Department.

A search officer is an extremely special job. Most of the executives and executive officers working in the Enforcement Department work in teams, combining members who are proficient in different skills to deal with different situations, but the investigators often act alone and need to be alone and have sufficient adaptability.

As a result, each investigator is demanded to be almost omnipotent. They need to master the ability to gather information in order to complete the preparatory work before the mission; they need to have a certain degree of on-the-spot reconnaissance capability and grasp the situation of the mission location in real time; they must learn the skills of infiltration and camouflage when they are often given the task of penetrating deep into the enemy's interior; at the same time, they must not be proficient in only one battle, and the flexibility to attack and defend, and to fight and retreat is very important.

In some special missions, the Investigator will act as a temporary captain and lead members of the Enforcement Department to fight together, or team up with each other. Therefore, leadership and cooperation skills are also needed.

Not only that, but when dealing with the intricacies of the situation, the investigator must rely on his own thinking to analyze the situation and find clues. The ability to think sharply is just as important as the ability to fight, and is the second weapon of the Investigator.

This ability to think is not only on the battlefield, but also at the desk. The task given to the investigator is never straightforward and simple. If the Executive's task is to "eradicate poaching rings with the team", then the Ombudsman's task is to "investigate the cause of the anomalous activity of wild Pokémon in Silver Mountain and deal with it".

Before fighting, they first need to understand the whole event, clear the fog, gain insight into the truth, and open a path with their own thinking. The reason why the investigator is called the investigator is precisely the meaning of the word "search".

The demanding tasks faced by investigators require a wide range of knowledge and a wide range of skills. And there is no doubt that this is not something that can be easily done.

The number of regular staff in the Search Department is very small, and although a large number of vocational trainers come to interview each year, very few of them pass the examination.

The vast majority of the investigators were promoted from the three departments of the Enforcement Department, the Rescue Department, and the Ministry of Public Security.

The hierarchy of the investigator is simple, divided into first, second, and third grades. The total number of investigators in an area is usually around 100, of which about 50 are third-level investigators and about 30 second-class investigators. And there are no more than ten first-level investigators in each region.

Generally speaking, only when the strength reaches the threshold of the Heavenly King level can you have a chance to enter the Search Department. The strongest first-class investigators often reach the peak of the Heavenly King, and even surpass the Four Heavenly Kings who represent the image of the region, and can compete with the champion.

The Investigator has a great reputation in the eyes of the people and is the highest dream for a professional trainer. They enjoy it, and they carry the trust of all.

Whenever there is a vicious incident or a large-scale natural disaster, the investigator will always be the first to arrive at the scene to fight crime and save people. For ordinary civilians, the Investigator is a warrior who saves them in danger, a pioneer in the fight against evil forces-

They are heroic beings.

The identity information of the second- and third-level investigators is protected by the Alliance, and the real appearance and name are rarely known outside the circle. However, the first-level investigator did the opposite, no longer hiding his identity, and revealing his true face openly.

Because they are strong enough, strong enough to no longer fear the attacks of the Dark Arrow, strong enough to be a symbol of strength, a symbol of alliance, a symbol of peace, and a mere name to deter the enemy.

These first-level investigators, who had less than ten people in each area, became the center of everyone's attention. They are as well-known among the people as celebrities, and they are the objects of longing and admiration of countless people, and when they are in danger, their arrival will immediately raise the hope of the victims, and shine like an inspiring sun. They have long been one of the important elements in maintaining social peace and people's peace and stability.

The age of heroes only exists in comics, but in the real world, these amazing people who fought for the people and for peace can indeed take on the word "hero".
