"Ralts, watch how you speak. Even if you're our most experienced Pokémon and our leader, there are things you should and shouldn't say."
"(But!!)"
(There are no buts! Pull yourself together! You're usually so calm-why haven't you noticed?)
"...What's going on?"
"Listen carefully. What are the two legendary Pokémon known as the gods of the Sinnoh Region?"
"(Dia-ga and Palkia.)"
(And what are they each the god of?)
"(If I remember right, time and space... Ah, is that it!)"
(Exactly. Isn't meeting with you more constructive than just criticizing you?)
"(You're right. Then, first-)"
The people who attacked us, the people Yuto was chasing right now-
"Let's go question those filthy Team Galactic boys still searching for Azelf on the shore."
"((About where Palkia and Cyrus are!)"
(So, what do we do next?)
We had interrogated everyone, starting with Team Galactic's Saturn and working down through the grunts (Latias, released from her Poké Ball, and Gengar had twisted their entire bodies almost to breaking point, while Gyarados and Heracross took turns delivering physical blows. Incidentally, the Shock Wave seemed to have come from Qian's tank, which was lying over there).
When there was nothing left to ask, Salamence spoke up.
I thought it would be better to split up the tasks of informing the girls heading to the other two lakes about our situation and keeping watch over this trash.
"Right, let's split into three groups. First, Latias and I will go to Lake Verity and explain things to Hikari and the others."
"(All right, big sister.)"
"Salamence and Gengar, head to Lake Acuity. Take the Team Galactic Commander and Yuto's bag with you. Baina has good instincts, so she should be able to figure out a fair amount. Hikari can explain the details over the live communicator.)"
"Hmm..."
