Rewinding a little, the moment the poison swamp in Fakola Island's underground space fully erupted, the Kalos League received a special transmission from Guangzhi!
At the time, Steel Armor, the Steel-type member of the Elite Four, was stationed at Pokémon League Headquarters!
Although he was a leading member of the conservative faction, Steel Armor had always devoted himself to developing the Kalos Region. When the Pokémon League first entered the region, he had been part of the Opposition, but his selflessness had earned the admiration of Drake, the Elite Four member leading the League's efforts at the time. That was why, after the Pokémon League fully took over the Kalos Region, Mr. Steel Armor had been nominated as a member of the Elite Four!
It was precisely his composure and integrity that had earned him the position!
Now, after receiving the emergency transmission from Fakola Island, even he was shocked by the audacity of Poison Black Yi!
The incident had also left him drenched in cold sweat!
Mr. Steel Armor knew perfectly well the importance of two League Champions and the forces they represented!
That made him all the more aware of the consequences if this matter was mishandled...
As for being one of the Seventeen Families?
That merely meant the League had never bothered to take you seriously. Did you think the Pokémon League was still in its infancy, when it needed support from financial conglomerates?
Forces like these that opposed the League only retained their foothold because a few old-timers clung to their sentimental attachments!
To ordinary people, they were powerful organizations. But to the Pokémon League, which was now fully established, if they refused to live in peace, they could stop living altogether!
Mr. Steel Armor immediately relayed the news to Miss Diantha, the Kalos League Champion,
