The runaway Pokémon and the return of the innocently devious Blissey

"Heh... We'll meet again."

Bang!

The Communicator in Misdreavus's grasp and the sunglasses-wearing man's Poké Balls at her feet instantly exploded into fragments.

Hunter J...

Dian's gaze grew solemn. Once he learned who she was, he abandoned the idea of using her captured subordinate to threaten her.

Just as Hunter J had said, the Pokémon Ranger Union had studied her thoroughly. She would never care about captured subordinates, whether they were alive or dead.

In the Sinnoh Region, a concealed Airship ruled over the vast, boundless blue sky.

Inside the Airship, the silver-haired, blue-eyed Hunter J switched off the Communicator beside her ear, her beautiful face cold. "How is Team B doing?"

"We just received word. They were thwarted by a Pokémon Ranger as well."

The man in the black battle suit spoke respectfully.

"The Pokémon Ranger Union..."

Hunter J muttered to herself, curling her lip. "Tch... A bunch of nuisances..."

Suddenly, a cold smile appeared on her face. "No matter. Proceed according to plan. Head for the Kalos Region."

"Yes!"

The man below immediately began relaying Hunter J's orders.

Hunter J was actually somewhat puzzled herself. She rarely took jobs across regional borders, but the sum this employer had offered was enough to move even her.

"Team Plasma..."

She smiled. Interesting. This was truly interesting. "Heh..."

She had no interest in what they wanted to do.

Because,

in this world,

what she loved most

was money alone.

Outside, the Airship slowly changed course, then sped toward the Kalos Region.

"Hurry up!!"

"Damn it! I know!"

The two men looked utterly terrified, constantly checking behind them in the mirrors.

An armored snow vehicle tore across the snow, crushing everything in its path as it fled.

"Running? You think it's that easy?"

An indifferent male voice rang out. "Vibrava, Bug Buzz."
