Lunar Light.

A New Plan.

Selene.

The two trainers sat inside the Shady House for a while. Selene was still in complete shock that not only did Guzma have a Pokémon like Nihilego, but it was even stronger. The worst part was now Rotom Dex had been kidnapped and Guzma could even unleash more of those beasts.

She had used more of her healing items to restore their Pokémon after that battle. The rain was still pounding down and they had decided to wait it out.

"Elio. What happened here. Explain." Selene said plainly, in no mood for any more mystery.

Elio sighed. "Back before Team Skull took over I had a friend, his name was Hau, he was the grandson of the Kahuna Hala. Hau had two Pokémon, a Raichu and a Toucannon. Both were gifts from his grandfather. Then Team Skull came in, Hau wanted to do something about it so he grabbed a ride pager and flew to their base. He stormed the area but Guzma came in and struck him down. I have no idea what happened to his Pokémon. Hau was my best friend and I lost him to those stupid Team Skull grunts!"

Selene expression softened. "Elio... I know he's gone and it hurts, I'm pretty sure I know someone who was my good friend. But she left. Still you have to keep going, we're going to beat Team Skull for him and everyone else!" Selene stood up and offered Elio her hand, he took it and stood up. The rain came to a stop.

"Alright let's start a rescue mission! We can take the tunnels back to the observatory and we can make a plan for an attack on Mount Lanakila from both sides. It'll be difficult especially since we'll have to fight on area that's best suited for Mudsdale." Elio said as they walked out of Po town.

"Get down!" Selene gasped and she dove behind some bushes, peering over them she saw six Team Skull grunts standing out in the open.

"We need to get to the blockade like the boss ordered!" One of them said.

"Relax dude. Just wanted to check up on the old crib." The other said.

"Let's go back now. I heard those kids could still be here!" A third spoke up.

"You're afraid of kids dawg?" The second one raised an eyebrow.

"Those two beat the entire Heahea city team!" The third countered.

"Fair enough bro. Let's bounce." They all turned to leave.

"The blockade?" Elio muttered.

"Wait a second. Isn't the Aether House down that way?" Selene asked, Elio nodded. "Then we need to go there. Acerola asked us to."

"Right, then let's go." Elio and Selene were about to follow them when Selene noticed a device on the ground. It was a Ride Pager.

"What's this?" She picked it up.

"It's a working Ride Pager! They must've dropped it!" Elio grinned.

Selene scrolled through the list. "There's no Charizard on this one. But there is a Sharpedo! We can ride around and cut them off!" Selene selected the Sharpedo and a white Pokeball appeared, she took it and sent out a Sharpedo in ride gear. Elio and Selene hopped on it and the shark-torpedo Pokémon sped forward.

After a while they arrived at Route 16 and they could see the white house on Route 15. Selene steered the Sharpedo towards the beach and they dismounted it. Then she returned it to the strange Pokeball.

"This is great! If only we had Charizard." Elio said as they walked to the Aether House.

"I guess. But I'm not even sure we'd be able to fly him here. Let's just get to the Aether House." They ran into the building.
