The Legendary "Three Great Sauces"!

Sinnoh, Lily of the Valley Island, the Lily of the Valley Conference venue—the starting point of the Sinnoh League's "Victory Road."

Just as when Jing He had challenged "Victory Road," the Lily of the Valley Conference venue was packed with people.

Although Jing He was hugely popular throughout the Pokémon World, Cynthia was not much less popular than him, especially in Sinnoh.

Naturally.

The people of Sinnoh carried, more or less, a tiny bit of resentment toward Teacher Jing He.

He had actually made off with our adorable Bai Cai!

Thus, when Cynthia prepared to challenge "Victory Road," many people at the Lily of the Valley Conference venue held up signs.

For example:

"What's so good about Teacher Jing He? Our Sinnoh's Volkner—crossed out—Watari—crossed out—Aaron—crossed out—Denji—can't we Sinnoh people do?"

Several names, with several bright red lines crossing them out, revealed the complicated feelings of the person holding the sign.

"Lady Cynthia, what we mean is, if you can lure Teacher Jing He over to Sinnoh, we can reluctantly accept that too!"

"You have to clear it faster than Teacher Jing He! Only then can you gain the upper hand at home!"

Of course, there were also some signs that expressed their feelings more directly, such as:

"We love you, our forever Lady Bai Cai!"

"Go, Sister Cynthia!"

There were also some rather... unusual ones.

Like—

"Let go of that Teacher Jing He! Let me have him!"

"Miss Cynthia, if you can't 'handle' Teacher Jing He, we know a little martial arts too!"

In short.

There was every kind imaginable.

The other signs were one thing, but seeing that first, largest, and most eye-catching sign, Volkner and Watari immediately felt a little hurt.

If you were going to cross us out, then don't write our names in the first place!
