The two recalled their Pokémon and left the Academy's battlefield.
They arrived at the Academy's 24-hour infirmary and gave the Poké Ball to the Academy doctor, who was also the doctor who had treated Professor Birch's back before.
After their Pokémon were fully restored, Cynthia was about to say goodbye to Roy when she realized she needed to go back and help Professor Rowan organize the data...
Suddenly, a similar-shaped Odd Keystone in the Poké Ball at her waist, surrounded by a mysterious gaseous substance.
Around the gaseous substance, many Spiritomb of varying sizes with circular patterns jumped out of the Poké Ball.
After emerging from its Poké Ball, the Spiritomb came to Roy's side, circling around Roy and inhaling Roy pleasant scent.
When Roy's Ghost Power reaches level 4, he can control his scent, which makes Ghost type Pokémon smell pleasant. Did he really think that Spiritomb would still be able to smell it?
"Spiritomb, how could you come out like this? I'm sorry, he didn't mean to scare you."
Cynthia quickly grabbed the Odd Keystone beneath the Spiritomb and apologized to Roy.
Roy knew, of course, that the Spiritomb hadn't done it on purpose, and he could sense that the Spiritomb was very hungry.
Yes! I'm really hungry.
The air around the Spiritomb exuded a listless aura.
As far as I remember, Cynthia used this Spiritomb to Destiny Bond Ash's Pikachu in the Masters Eight tournament.
"It's alright. Have you forgotten why Professor Rowan moved to my place?"
Cynthia then realized that Roy was a Ghost type Pokémon Trainer.
Roy crouched down, sensing the aura surrounding the Spiritomb.
Seeing Roy observing the Spiritomb, Cynthia didn't say anything; she had realized something was wrong with the Spiritomb before she arrived.
She captured this Spiritomb in an ancient Ruins in Celestic Town.
However, she was stumped by the question of how to raise Ghost type Pokémon, so she had to buy Dark type Pokéblock for her Spiritomb.
However, after eating the Dark type Pokéblock, the Spiritomb was energized for a while, and then it remained like that.
Let Roy see if he has any good ideas.

Spiritomb is a Ghost type / Dark type, the same as Froslass. Its Ghost type makes it immune to Fighting type moves that are super effective against Dark type, and it is only weak to Fairy type.
Legend has it that the body of Spiritomb is composed of 108 souls. Coincidentally, Spiritomb weighs 108 kilograms, and its base stats for Defense and Special Defense are both 108.
Its attack and speed are 92 and 35 respectively. While its speed is not as slow as its own Dusclops, it is still slower than most Pokémon.
Roy sensed the faint Ghost type aura emanating from the Spiritomb for a while and roughly figured out the reason: it was primarily a matter of type.
Spiritomb is a dual-type Pokémon. Its Dark type energy is naturally super effective against Ghost type, so it needs to absorb more Ghost-type energy to maintain balance.
However, during the subsequent breeding process, Cynthia only fed Dark type Pokéblock, which caused the energy in the already scarce Ghost-type energy Spiritomb's body to become completely unbalanced, resulting in the Spiritomb becoming what it is now.
Being able to become Professor Rowan's assistant shows that Cynthia has a wealth of knowledge about Pokémon, so she naturally understood what Roy was saying.
It turns out that improper cultivation by myself caused the Spiritomb to turn into this form.
"I'm sorry, Spiritomb, it's all my fault."
"Strange!"
Sensing Cynthia's apology, the Spiritomb stretched its gaseous body to Cynthia 'Cynthia hand and rubbed against it.
"Well... I'd like to ask about the breeding of Spiritomb."
"The Spiritomb is actually quite strong."
Roy explained to Cynthia how to raise and battle with Spiritomb. In terms of raising it, the key is to replenish Ghost-type energy to achieve energy conservation within the body.
In terms of tactics, it is similar to the Dusclops. The Spiritomb can also learn Trick Room, Will-O-Wisp, Toxic, and other rather annoying skills.
He could be there, disgusting people, just like his Dusclops.
Even if you can't beat them, you can trade Destiny Bond, but be careful not to give them any buffs.
Upon hearing Roy's explanation, Cynthia quickly picked up a pen and paper to take notes, especially Roy's last sentence, which sounded like Dusclops.
Recalling the performance of the Dusclops in the Academy Arena.
It does seem pretty good...
After explaining, Roy took out the Pokéblock he had created to teach Misdreavus Dark Pulse and handed it to the Spiritomb.
I know you're hungry, go ahead and eat.
"Strange!"
Upon smelling the Pokéblock, the Spiritomb instantly perked up, but it first glanced back at the Cynthia, and after obtaining her permission, it began to devour the Pokéblock infused with the Ghost Power by Roy.
After taking its first bite of the Pokéblock, the Spiritomb's expression instantly changed from sorrow to joy, and it then went on to eat four more Pokéblock in a row.
Seeing that the Spiritomb's condition had improved, Cynthia was surprised that the Pokéblock in Roy's hand, which was emitting purple gas, could actually heal her Spiritomb.
"Roy, where did you buy these Pokéblock? I've never seen these... these emitting gas Pokéblock in any region of Sinnoh."
"I made this myself."
Although Agatha had told him before she left not to boast about his ability to make Pokéblock, the person in front of him was Cynthia, and definitely someone he could trust.
Cynthia was surprised that Roy could make Pokéblock and was also a cultivator. Moreover, judging from the transparency of the Pokéblock and the energy it contained, it should be Intermediate Pokéblock.
How could Roy, who is a year younger than her, create such Pokéblock?
Not to mention, this was Ghost-type Pokéblock that she had never seen before.
Roy: Basic operations, don't 6
Roy then took out a bag of about 200 previously made spare Pokéblock from his Spatial Bracelet and gave it to Cynthia, indicating that feeding the Spiritomb four cubes a day would meet its daily needs.
The Spiritomb's eyes widened as it saw so many Pokéblock. How long would it take it to eat all of them?
Although it's unclear what Roy put in the Pokéblock, the Spiritomb's condition was noticeably better after consuming Pokéblock.
Cynthia knew that these Pokéblock, which could satisfy the needs of Ghost type Pokémon, were extremely rare and highly sought after.
"Can I order some Pokéblock from you?"
What if the Spiritomb runs out of food later...
Roy nodded; making this kind of intermediate-level Pokéblock was now a piece of cake for him.
