The three who had just left returned to the Black Ship and began discussing what had happened.

"Looks like they were plotting over a Pokémon. The only Pokémon that could tempt an Elite Four Trainer would be a Pseudo-Legendary..."

"Captain? That new kid has a Pseudo-Legendary?"

"Maybe. Otherwise, he wouldn't have attracted an Elite Four Trainer. Lucky yet unlucky kid. What a pity..."

"Then why did they..."

"Give it a rest. Beat them first
