Now that the Archie has appeared, what about the Maxie?
Could they be lying in ambush in Lilycove City or on the way back to Mt. Pyre, ready to deliver a fatal blow?
He really can't sleep well if the Archie and the Maxie don't die...
Moreover, one of the two precious pearls that the two old men entrusted to him for safekeeping, the Red Orb, is now in his Spatial Bracelet.
Recalling the Archie and Matt he had seen on the pirate ship, Roy felt like something was missing.
What exactly is it?
The image of a dark-skinned, S-shaped beauty gradually became clear in his mind.
Roy slapped his forehead and said that he always felt like something was missing.
Shelly isn't on the Team Aqua!
On the Team Aqua's large ship, he only saw Archie and his first mate, Matt. As for the others, such as Shelly and Didi, who appeared in the comics, they did not appear.
The last time Roy saw Shelly, A-Quan was still selling Pokémon items at Devon Corporation, and at that time A-Quan had just become the manager of one of the stores.
So that means the Team Aqua must have been established only recently, and even the most basic personnel configuration is not yet complete.
Even with the current strength of the Team Aqua led by Archie, they can't stop him, let alone try to snatch the Blue Orb from Mt. Pyre. They'd probably be Spirit World by the time they reached the foot of Mt. Pyre.
Could I take advantage of this...?
In order to prepare for Team Aqua and Team Magma, he kept Shelly and Tabitha's contact information, but he never took the initiative to contact them.
Tabitha has tried to sell me some Berry from time to time, but I rarely reply.
If that doesn't work, I'll contact the two of them later and see if I can devise a counter-espionage plan. Once I'm strong enough, I can get them to help me capture Archie and Maxie.
To eliminate future troubles for oneself.
"What are you thinking? I helped you this time, and you didn't even offer to treat me to a meal."
Lysandre's voice brought Roy back to his senses, and he remembered that Lysandre had said he had something to talk to him about.
"Please, of course you'll be invited. Don't just invite me to one meal, I'll treat you to a hundred!"
Just as the group was about to leave, a Braviary with distinct layers of feathers, three sharp white crest feathers atop its head, and a robust physique flew in from afar.
There was also a man in black robes on the Braviary.
Seeing the insignia on the black robe, Roy knew that the person on Braviary was a Prosecutor from the Hoenn.
Moreover, he had met this Prosecutor before; he was the same young Prosecutor he had seen at the Safari Zone who liked to dress up as Lance.
Upon seeing Roy, the young Prosecutor paused for a moment, clearly recognizing Roy as well.
Just as he was about to greet Roy, he suddenly saw the horrific scene on the sea and smelled a strong stench of blood, which almost made him vomit up his lunch.
Fortunately, he knew Roy, and the other party knew Officer Jenny Liya, otherwise he might have mistaken Roy for a thug.
"The people down there are pirates. My sister and I were attacked by pirates. It was Mr. Lysandre and Ms. Malva who helped me, otherwise I might be the one floating on the sea."
"I can vouch for him."
Lysandre nodded in agreement.
The young Prosecutor nodded, commanded his Braviary to fly over the sea, picked up a piece of clothing debris, and returned to the air, explaining to Roy:
"This is a pirate organization that has recently emerged in the port area of Lilycove City, and it is also the target of our Prosecutors ' Pursuit."
However, they frequently plundered passing merchant ships, and had never attacked a single individual on their own.
The young Prosecutor's answer confirmed Roy's earlier thought; the Team Aqua had indeed only been established for a short time.
After questioning Roy a few times, the Prosecutor glanced at Roy and Lysandre and asked:
"Which direction did those pirates retreat in?"
Roy raised his hand and pointed behind him.
The young Prosecutor looked in the direction Roy had pointed out, where the Team Aqua had retreated. After saying goodbye to Roy, he commanded the Braviary beneath him to chase after them in the direction Roy had indicated.
Seeing that nothing had happened, Lysandre and Malva, led by Roy, followed them to the port of Lilycove City.
Because he had to catch the ship back to Kalos in the afternoon, Lysandre only ate a few Hoenn specialties at a small restaurant in the port.
Before the meal, Roy first took out a bottle of Moomoo Milk and fed it to the hungry Little Absol.
During the meal, Lysandre tried to speak several times, but hesitated and then kept his mouth shut.
Seeing Lysandre's hesitant expression, Roy knew that Lysandre was about to get down to business, but he couldn't bring himself to say it because Phoebe was there.
Having finished the entire bottle of Moomoo Milk Little Absol didn't want to go back to its Poké Ball; instead, it started circling the table.
When it reached Lysandre's feet, it used its newly grown sharp teeth to tear at the hem of Lysandre's black custom-made suit trousers.
Lysandre wasn't angry. He grabbed Little Absol by the neck and lifted Little Absol up, teasing Roy that like Pokémon Trainer, like Pokémon.
Little Absol had already learned to destroy the house at a very young age.
Roy took the Little Absol from Lysandre, took a step back, and let his shadow cover the shadow of Phoebe, who was eating ice cream next to him.
A dark shadow silently followed Roy's shadow and entered Phoebe's shadow.
Gengar, still in Phoebe's shadow, was also bewildered by the sudden appearance of Marshadow. Before it could react, Marshadow extended a black hand and put Phoebe's Gengar to sleep.
"Mr. Lysandre and I have something to discuss. Go play on the beach for a while, I'll come find you later."
"Good!"
Phoebe didn't mind. After taking off her shoes, she ran barefoot to the beach at the harbor and started piling up sand on the sand.
Her attention had been focused on the Golden sand beach not far away since she started eating; it was a beautiful sight she had only ever seen on television.
Lysandre was surprised that Roy trusted him so much, daring to let Phoebe go out alone after the attack.
Even when he was charging on his Dragapult, he kept Phoebe by his side.
Lysandre turned and glanced at Malva beside him.
Malva understood and walked towards the beach, but the Golden sand and silver waves before her did not attract her.
Her attention was fixed on Phoebe, and she was very vigilant, watching for anyone approaching Phoebe.
