Narrator: In our last episode, Isaiah and his friends throughout Route 11, where they find the Sand-flooded SandStream City, which is constantly in a storm due to the mind-controlled Tyranitar! After defeating Team Oblivion and capturing the Tyranitar, our Team is suddenly greeted by a cheering SandStream City population. What's happening? The Journey Continues, Now!

"We have found our saviors!" A man said. 

"The sandstorms are no more!" A woman shouted. 

"LET US DOWN!" Numerugon shouted. The crowd calmed down and slowly put us on the ground. 

"What the hell is going on!?" Corna shouted. 

"Uh, duh!? You just saved our town from days and days of harsh sandstorms!" A kid shouted. 

"OK, now everyone moves aside!" someone said. The crowd split as a short man in a black suit and top hat approached us. He had white skin and a brown mustache. He cleared his throat before speaking. 

"As Mayor of SandStream City, I nominate all four of you Honorary Hereos of this city. I'm also awarding you 30,000 Pokedollars each, 15 ultra balls, and one z crystal of your choice each," He said. 

"Holy shit, how rich are you?!" Corna said. 

"This is the Pokemon World Money's more than easy to get." The Mayor chuckled. He cleared his throat again before snapping his fingers. Two men in black suits came to us and gave us all four computer chips and 15 ultra balls, and then they both grabbed a box that had two of each Z crystal in existence. 

"WOW! Awesome!" Gary said. 

"For capturing the Tyranitar, you get the first pick, young man," The Mayor chuckled to Gary. Gary promptly chose a Psychium Z. 

"Perfect choice. And now, for defeating the Team Oblivion Admin, you choose the next young lady," The Mayor said, tipping his hat to Corna. 

"Wow, thanks!" Corna said proudly. 

She went to the box, stood there momentarily, then grabbed a Groundium Z. 

"Very good. Now, you two arm wrestle over who goes next!" The Mayor chuckled. 

"Wait, what-" I began, but Numerugon grabbed my arm and slammed me over with minimum effort, sending me flying into the sand. 

"Splendid, my dear! Why don't you go next?" He said. 

"OK!" Numerugon said, her lips curved in a "W" sign as she trotted to the box and chose a Dragonium Z. 

"Splendid!" The Mayor said. He walked over to me and helped me, who was still in utter pain from Numerugon's stunning feat. After recovering, I walked over and eventually chose a Flyium Z. 

"Excellent! We know you guys have a long journey ahead, so why doesn't my Lad Fredrick give you some food and berries for the way?" The Mayor said. Suddenly holding a cane in his hand, the Mayor taps it on the much less sandy floor, and a man in green hiking clothes comes to us and gives me and Numerugon five sausage packets, spaghetti, fried food, dumplings, noodles, etc. He then gave us ten Oran berries, ten Sitrus berries, and ten Rawst berries.

 "Sir, I don't know if we could thank you," I said. 

"But my boy, you've already had! Now, no more questions or wasted time. Go along with your journey!" The Mayor said. The crowd split apart further for my Team to continue. I walked forward, my friends right behind me. I waved at the crowd nervously, my face sweating. Corna and Gary, however, enjoyed the attention and waved at the crow enthusiastically, shook hands, and even signed some autographs. Numerugon was between my nervousness and Corna and Gary's love for attention. She did smile at the crow and waved occasionally but didn't interact with them any further. Eventually, we left the city and went back to Route 11.
