Azalea Town was a small place with a closely knitted community that Mishu had already learned would take some time to help them adjust to her. Though she was used to traveling around areas and regions where new faces were often welcomed and wanted, it seemed as though Azalea stood on guard against those same new faces and what they could mean for their community. As she pushed the tall glass doors to Bugsy’s GYM open and stepped back out into the world around her, Mishu would immediately shield her eyes from the bright sun that loomed overhead in the skies above. She knew that she had a lot of work to do, especially if she wanted to help solve the mystery of the troublesome Pokemon for the villagers.
Though, Bugsy had given the amber eyed educator more questions by the time she had left his GYM. As she walked over to a small mom and pop restaurant and sat down at one of their tables, she pondered the mystery silently to herself. “Is there anything I can get you, miss?” A young girl that couldn’t have been older than nineteen came bounding over to her table. She had thick, curly brown hair that spilled down her back and over her shoulders to sweep across her chest and barely tickle the top of her stomach. The young girl’s face was full of freckles and her skin was so pale in comparison that you could have mistaken her for a ghost. “Oh, uh…tea, please. Just a teaspoon of honey.” The curly-haired wait staff smiled brightly as she fished out her notepad and began scribbling down Mishu’s order on a screen. “Certainly! Would you like to try one of our herbal teas?” She asked in a bright and chipper voice. Mishu nodded her head and picked up the menu as she glanced over their selection of teas. “Sure, I would love to try your Sencha tea.” The young lady nodded firmly as she entered the order. Though, when she asked if Mishu was ready to order, Mishu shook her head and asked for a little longer.
She pondered over the mystery Pokemon while she perused the restaurant’s menus. Bright images popped out showcasing their most popular meals. Large burgers with gently toasted buns drizzled in honey butter and piled high with thick slices of beef, bright yellow cheese, and candy red colored tomatoes popped out at her. In contrast, grilled chicken glistened with their golden-brown hues and thick black grilled lines stuffed with chunky, thick applewood bacon and cheese paired next to roasted bright red, sangria purple, and warm brown vegetables mixed into a harmonic medley and sitting on top of a bed of soft white rice stood out not far from the burgers on the menu. After some time, she would order the chicken and eat her meal in peace, before paying her bill and excusing herself from the restaurant.
She asked around the village as she approached different people. “Excuse me…I’m looking for misses Aberton’s house?” Some ignored her as they pulled their kids closer to their sides and whispered in hushed voices about how she was the rumored ‘Dark Type trainer’ that must have unleashed the unruly beast in their streets. Others shook their heads with a sorrowful, “no, sorry. Wish I could help.” And still, others would seem to scowl and point their fingers accusingly at Mishu as they turned their nose up to her. “And what if I do?! Why do you want to know so badly, anyways?!” Mishu managed to regain her calm, thanking those that would at least stop to talk to her and explaining herself repeatedly to the others that tried to accuse her directly in her face. “I’m on the hunt for the mystery Pokemon that keeps plaguing your town. I only want to help you get rid of this Pokemon from your town, or at the very least learn why it keeps terrorizing everyone here.” When that wouldn’t work, she relied on Bugsy’s merit to help her through. “Bugsy reassured me after our GYM Battle that I would be able to help you solve this mystery!” And showed off her new badge.
Finally, as the sun set past the horizon skies and the moon shimmered in the dark night skies above, someone proved to be more helpful than the rest. A young couple in their early twenties stopped to listen to Mishu and hear her out. One of them had long, straight blonde hair while the other had short, curly reddish-brown hair that framed her face. They smiled in relief and nodded their heads firmly as they offered to take her to Mrs. Aberton’s house. “She’s my mom.” The blonde haired lady spoke up as she pulled her girlfriend close to her with her arms wrapped tightly around the reddish-brown haired lady’s sides. She stole a kiss on her girlfriend’s cheek with a warm smile.
When they arrived, Mishu was welcomed into Aberton’s house with open arms. The front porch’s light spilled across the darkened ground, lighting up the patio that led to the entrance of the house. “I’m Carissa and this is my girlfriend, Mikayla.” Mrs. Aberton’s daughter informed Mishu, who nodded and introduced herself both to them and Mrs. Aberton more formerly, then, she explained her plan to Mrs. Aberton who would lead her out through the back door where her garden sat in shambles. It was evident with the sticks she had propped up on some of the vegetables and the scattered gardening tools that Mrs. Aberton had already been diligently working on the issue herself. “My poor garden! It seems like it’s every night this culprit keeps striking our place.” She explained with a loud sigh. “Thank you, dear, for your help!”

Poochyena had been enjoying the nice weather rolling around in a patch of grass when it got the whiff of an approaching trainer. The dark type had not battled a trainer in a very long time and it wanted to see just how strong Mishu was as it approached and challenged her to a battle. ![](https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/bw/poochyena.png) Poochyena (Level 10) challenges you to a battle.

As Mishu prepared to stake out the strange Pokemon terrorizing Mrs. Aberton’s backyard, she spent a good portion of the time gathering as much about the Pokemon as she could. Mrs. Aberton gestured towards a large outdoor table and some wicker chairs, where they sat down to discuss the matter further. The blue-haired trainer pulled out her notepad and flipped it to the pages where she had already begun taking notes as she questioned Mrs. Aberton and welcome the older lady’s responses to help them solve this mystery Pokemon. “When did this Pokemon first start attacking your garden?” Mishu asked her with a soft, gentle tone. The older lady’s eyes flickered around in the dimly light garden. She stared up at the bright moon above at length, trying to avoid the mental thought of the Pokemon that had been terrorizing her at first.
“Uhm…I’m sorry. Is that question too difficult for you right now?” Mishu reached out and gently caressed the older woman’s hand. Her skin was wrinkled and rough, almost like an alligator’s skin to the touch from years of hard work and unfavorable life conditions. When the Mrs. Aberton glanced up at Mishu with widened, concerned eyes that seemed as though they would break into tears, the thirty-year-old understood immediately. “Your garden is pretty important to you, isn’t it?” The older lady glanced over to her garden under the pale moon’s light and nodded. Then, she broke as she slowly released a long breath of air from her lungs. “It is…it was my husband’s garden before it was mine. And I used to say, ‘Alfred’, I’d say. ‘I dun’ know the first thing ‘bout gardenin’. Poor plants gunna plum die if’n you don’t take care of ‘em’!” A smile broke on her lips, though somber to the touch, and she laughed.
Aberton’s eyes seemed to soften as a deep sadness crossed their gaze. “Well…look now he’s dun’ gone off to paradise an’ left me here wit’ his garden. Now this thing keeps attackin’ it…an’ I’un know if’n I has the fight to defend it!” Mrs. Aberton broke down as tears streamed down her cheeks. Mishu pushed herself up out of her seat and walked over to the older lady. She would gently wipe Aberton’s tears away from her eyes and pull the older lady into a tight embrace to welcome Mrs. Aberton to cry on her shoulders. As Mrs. Aberton wept, Mishu would gently pat her back to try and comfort her. “And I’m sure he’s proud of how hard you’ve worked to keep it going. If it’s not too forward of me to say…” Mishu started as she reached up to rub the back of her head. “I want to help you catch this mystery Pokemon. And if you’ll allow me, I’ll stay afterwards to help rebuild your garden with you. Would that be ok?”
Mrs. Aberton’s eyes lit up as hope sprinkled across her gaze. There were darker clouds of regret and apprehension that seemed to mix within her warm brown eyes and breed doubt that clung to the back of Mrs. Aberton’s mind. Though, it would seem as though the older lady would push them away as she smiled. “I would like tha- Oh, good heavens! What’s that?!” The older lady nearly jumped backwards over her chair as the black dog appeared from the overgrown grass in Mrs. Aberton’s back yard. It’s ears were pinned to his skull as it held its head low and growled menacingly at Mishu. Understanding the Pokemon in an instance, though also completely enamored that she managed to run into a Poochyena of all Pokemon, she pulled out a small red-and-white Pokeball and called Suraimu out to face off with the wild dog. The bright green living sludge began to immediately spew up thick piles of acidic sludge everywhere, aiming to hit the Poochyena.

Mishu raised a critical eye at Poochyena as she studied the Dark Type Pokemon. Given that its gait was on four legs instead of two, she wasn’t so sure that this was the mystery Pokemon that the town had been trying to avoid. Though, the black dark did have thick, dark grey shaggy fur that seemed to fit part of the description she had been given by Bugsy – at least, if her memory was still as fresh as she expected it to be from her recent GYM Battle. The blue haired educator flipped around through her notes as she searched for what she had written down during her Gym Battle and tried to compare them against the wild canine. She was indecisive at best. There were parts of her notes she thought could have fit the canine, but there were also parts of her notes that seemed to contradict Poochyena being her culprit.
“Mrs. Aberton.” Mishu spoke surely as she worked with Suraimu to keep the dog contained. The wild canine backed up against the brick wall that fenced off her property properly from her neighbors and pressed its body low into the tall grasses around it. It’s lips curled in a nasty snarl as a low, menacing growl crawled across its vocals in warning. “Does this look like the Pokemon that’s been terrorizing your garden?” Mishu asked her in a calm and firm voice as she tried not to startle the wild dog any worse than it had already been startled. The older lady stared at the small canine and squinted her eyes before shaking her head firmly. “No…” She began to reply with a loud sigh. “But it would sometimes travel with the Poochyena that frequent our area.” She commented firmly. “Hang on…” Mrs. Aberton opened her purse and dug around until she managed to pull out a small blue orb, which she passed over to Mishu. “I’ve noticed that the strange creature often comes after these things, but it can also attract more of those pesky dogs. Please, be careful if you use it!”
Mishu held the Adrenalin Orb in one hand and stared at it carefully with her warm amber eyes. She wasn’t very familiar with such items and wandered how she should use it or if she should even use it. Suraimu expanded his size so that he towered like a thin sheet that had been ironed too heavily then stood up on its side and wavered back and forth above the Poochyena. The dog’s red nose sniffed the air before it barked in a loud voice with its head tilted up, then lunged to bite down on its opponent with its sharp teeth. “Thank you for this.” Mishu commented to Mrs. Aberton as she tossed the small blue orb in Poochyena’s direction. “Please, stay back!” She warned the other lady.
Mrs. Aberton backed away to her porch and watched with wide eyes. One hand rested on her door handle as though she weren’t sure if she wanted to fully retreat inside or if she wanted to wait outside with Mishu. “Oh…please be careful!” She shouted over the gentle breeze that played softly across the ground with her hands cupped around her face. “I’ll never forgive myself if you get hurt!” Mishu nodded her head firmly and waved back to the old lady with confidence. She was sure that she could handle Poochyena just fine. It may give her quite the chase but in the end, Mishu didn’t doubt that her Pokemon were anything but capable of facing the dark grey canine. “I won’t get hurt! I still have to help you, remember!?” She laughingly promised Mrs. Aberton.

As Mishu used an adrenaline orb the bright blue flash frightened the weakened Poochyena, it howled as loud as it could to summon a friend and seconds later a second Poochyena showed up to help. After calling in it's friend Poochyena rushed towards Suraimu with a full bodied Tackle with such pride that it was able to score a CRITICAL HIT on the poor Grimer. Unfortunately for Poochyena even a critical hit barely left a mark on the Alolan Grimer.

The sentient pile of sludge rose up tall like a thin sheet of colorful paper as he faced off against the dark grey dog. The wild canine tilted its head back as it lifted itself up a bit off the ground and unleashed a long and sorrowful howl. The sound echoed around them with a bone chilling effect as it traveled far on the gentle winds that carefully rolled across the lands. Though it seemed as though only the original Poochyena’s howls would echo back in greeting, the wild dog did not give up as it kept singing out to invisible packmates somewhere off in the distance. Mishu carefully pulled out the notebook where she had been keeping notes on the wild Pokemon of Johto and began to furiously scribble away and notate the unique behaviors she noticed in the Poochyena.
“This is quite intriguing.” Mishu muttered underneath her breath while keeping a close eye on Suraimu. When the black dog rammed into her Pokemon with all of its might, her amber gaze would scan the living sludge up and down as she checked him to ensure that the damages he would have sustained were not too heavy. Mishu smiled and scratched the back of her neck while sighing in relief. She was positive - even as another dark grey Poochyena leaped over the tall brick walls of Mrs. Aberton’s backyard to join its friend – that Suraimu was more than capable of handling these two dogs on his own. “Though, it doesn’t look like this Poochyena knows our culprit, huh?” Mishu shook her head in disappointment as she folded the pages of her notebook back over and placed it up in her bag.
Trembling with fear, Mr. Aberton shook her head. “That’s not…” She gulped and tried to find the courage to speak. The dogs were standing all over her dead husband’s garden. Their feet trampled through the broken stems of the old tomato bushes and dug up the carrots that she had planted with barely a care in the world. As the tears began to cascade down her face, Mrs. Aberton tried to swallow back her sadness and fight to speak. “The strange Pokemon often travels with many Pokemon. It can take a long time before it’ll appear. I…I don’t know…can you get those dogs to move?!” She barked in agitated frustration. Then, softer with a bit of embarrassment, she added. “I’m sorry…it’s just-””
Mishu nodded her head in the direction of Mrs. Aberton’s garden with understanding. She couldn’t imagine what it must have been like to be left plants by a deceased loved one and to try to do your best to keep them alive for their sake. Even if her husband was no longer with her, Mrs. Aberton carried his memory both in her mind and in the physical form of the garden itself. Watching those dogs trampling across her plants was like watching another part of her husband die before her very eyes. It must have stung and to imagine how well Mrs. Aberton was managing to keep her composure…Mishu couldn’t fault her for snapping. “I understand.” She added quickly with a nod of her head, accidentally cutting Mrs. Aberton off. “Though I may never know the pain you go through, I can understand that this garden must mean a lot to you. And watching these wild dogs waltz all through it must feel like you’re watching them-“ This time Mrs. Aberton would cut Mishu off as she nodded, “destroy a peace of my husband? Yes. That’s exactly what it feels like.”
“Suraimu, you need to move! I can’t allow you to keep battling near her garden, and I need you to keep the dogs away from the garden, please! Then create a barrier but be extremely careful not to poison the ground near the garden. Got it?!” Mishu barked the command at her Pokemon, stressing the importance to Suraimu. The jolly Pokemon spun around and tilted its head with a strange curiosity before nodding its entire being. It would stretch out and around the Poochyena, basically corralling them away from the garden to a safe spot where they couldn’t trample all over Mrs. Aberton’s plants. Then, Suraimu focused and released a powerful toxic barrier that only created a battlefield around him and the wild dogs to keep them from running off to the field, though it wasn’t quite as powerful as an actual attack. “Good, now use Acid Spray!” Mishu instructed, praising her Pokemon’s hard work as he shot a thick slime ball of acid directly at the larger canine.

Suraimu just out sped the larger Poochyena as he fired off a nasty Acid Spray right into the canine's face causing decent damage and significantly weakening the dark types special defense. Both of the Poochyena knew such a sneaky attack could not go unpunished as the pair rushed towards Suraimu at full speed each delivering a solid Tackle attack. Even with both Pokemon scoring a direct hit however neither could come close to knocking Suraimu out.

Suraimu worked hard to keep the dogs corralled inside of his wall of putrid slime and toxic sludge. Every time one of the dark grey canines leaped like they might try to jump over it, the sentient pile of green sludge would cause a ripple of sludge to shoot up and form a barrier to separate them from Mrs. Aberton’s garden. They scrunched up their snouted and lowered their heads as they pinned their ears firmly and snarled at their opponent. They were growing tired of this Pokemon’s charade and wanted to teach it a nasty lesson it would never forget. Noddin silently at each other and working through hushed barks and growls, they would rush Suraimu and slam into him from the sides.
Suraimu rolled across the ground with a loud cry. Small twigs and dried leaves crunched underfoot as the Alolan Grimer tumbled about across the tall grasses of Mrs. Aberton’s yard. Mishu watched her Pokemon carefully while she tried to decide whether she should recall her Pokemon or allow him to continue on in the midst of the fight. “How are you doing, Suraimu?” She called out to her Pokemon with concern. The living sludge lifted himself up and spun around so that it looked like his body had been braided as he focused his gaze on his owner. He stretched out one of his hands as far as he could tether it was waved it awkwardly in the air several feet away from his body – stretched out long and thin like a gigantic yet lanky arm. “Oh, are you worried?” Suraimu called in a soft, yet still eerily jolly voice. “I’m sure I’ve got this at least one more round! They aren’t bad dogs, either! Just a bit…tough…” He un-spun himself back around to face his opponents once more. Suraimu began spraying more acid all around his opponents, hoping to coat the other dog in his toxic liquids.
“Good…while Suraimu handles them I’m going to go work on your garden, Mrs. Aberton. Is that…alright?” The older lady’s eyes darted apprehensively to her garden and back to the battle that was underway within her back yard. She bit her lower lip with her upper teeth and clenched her fists tightly. Mishu could see inside of her gaze that Mrs. Aberton was heavily bothered by the fighting Pokemon in the middle of her back yard. Though, truthfully, Mishu needed to unravel the mysteries of the Pokemon that would keep causing her so much conflict and pain. This was just the best way to get to the bottom of it and if Mishu tried to hunt away from its preferred spots, there was a strong chance she could miss it entirely. “Here…” She walked over to Mrs. Aberton and grabbed the older lady’s hand gently in her own hands. Mrs. Aberton turned to stare at Mishu nervously though she seemed reluctant to speak up about whatever was on her mind. “Would you rather go inside while I handle this?” Mishu asked her gently.
Mrs. Aberton shook her head firmly. “I just know that beast is out there somewhere.” She muttered underneath her voice. The tone of her voice dripped with venom and hatred for the strange creature, whatever it was that had been plaguing her garden. “As soon as we turn away it’s going to wreck what’s left of my plants.” The tears that slowly cascaded down Mrs. Aberton’s cheeks would flow like a river across her face. Mishu used her free hand to gently wipe them away as she sighed sadly and glanced in the direction of the battling canines. “I’ll stay here all night if I have to.” She promised. “I’m not leaving until I solve this mystery for you or you ask me to leave specifically. As long as I’m not causing you too much pain, I would love to stay here and help you solve this mystery.”

Suraimu launched another painful Acid Spray at the bigger Poochyena however unlike the first one this proved too much to bare as it was knocked out from the strike. Poochyena started to panic as it howled for help again. Seconds later an even bigger Poochyena appeared ready to help.

Mishu’s words managed to calm Mrs. Aberton’s spirits down. Though she had heard many things about this mysterious young lady from the wandering neighbors and rumors that had spread like wildfire throughout the town’s open streets, she was learning firsthand which were true, and which were not. “You are very thoughtful and kind.” Mrs. Aberton commented with a smile. She turned and propped open the backdoor to her house as her daughter walked up to her from inside the house with a cup of hot herbal tea in one hand. She thanked her daughter and accepted the tea, and Mishu did the same as Carissa offered her a cup as well. “Thank you” Mishu stated both to Mrs. Abertion and to Carissa. The blue-haired educator would gently blow on top of the tea as she tried to cool its temperature down a bit, and carefully sipped on it.
“My goal is to dispel the myths that surround Dark Type Pokemon. I want to prove that they’re not all bad just because of their typing.” Mishu’s amber eyes lit up as determination crossed their frame. She held a firm look on her face that proved how serious her words were. Mrs. Aberton and Carissa glanced at each other as their eyes widened and their mouth faltered into a strange circular pattern. Apprehension blossomed in strange waves and danced with uncertainty within their eyes. But, both Mrs. Aberton and Carissa managed to keep their thoughts to themselves as they tried to calm their own emotions. “We…uh…there’s a reason many of us keep at least one bug type Pokemon as a companion.” Mrs. Aberton stated nervously. Carissa nodded and called her Pokemon out. The large cicada-crab like Pokemon with a giant mushroom on its back shot out from the bright red light and took form. “That’s right. This is Missy…she’s my Parasect and keeps the wild dogs that roam around here out of my yard.” Carissa muttered under her breath.
Mishu didn’t push the issue, however. She turned her attention to the window on the backdoor as she watched Suraimu battling the two dogs under the pale moonlight. She frowned and narrowed her gaze as she noticed the new Poochyena that had joined the fight, though the first friend the original had summoned seemed to have disappeared. Setting her tea down carefully on the countertop, Mishu would walk over to the door and prop it open to pop her head outside for a brief moment. “You’re doing great, Suraimu, keep it up!” Mishu shouted towards her Pokemon and clapped her hands as she applauded Suraimu’s efforts. Suraimu shot straight up in the air then turned around and tried to slam his entire body down on the newest arrival to the fight. “Hello, new friend! Do you wanna play?!” He giggled.
The dogs narrowed their gaze firmly upon their enemy as they bared their fangs and snarled with a vicious temperament. Mishu carefully shut the backdoor once more and collected the cup of tea in her hands as she sipped on it and turned back to Mrs. Aberton and Carissa once more. “Your Parasect’s mushroom looks extremely healthy.” She smiled. Carissa nodded and gently stroked the top of her Pokemon’s head. “Oh, yes…thanks. I give Missy fresh compost every morning and a spectacular bath made from decaying forest debris.” She boasted. Mishu then turned her attention nervously as she kept stealing glances out the window on Mrs. Aberton’s backdoor. “That Poochyena…it looks new…” She sighed and bit her lower lip as she kept an eye on Suraimu. She feared that if it lasted much longer then she would have to recall her beloved Pokemon and choose a new contestant to enter the fray.

The Bigger Poochyena rushed forward delivering a solid Tackle before Suraimu could strike. This was quite a mistake on the Poochyena's part however as by hitting Suraimu first it allowed Assurance to double it's damage. The resulting smack across the hound's face left quite a red mark as it stood dazed from the impact. The smaller Poochyena howled with laughter at the bigger Poochyena finding it quite amusing that it's partner had been smacked so hard even if it was terrible news for both canines in the long run.

The blue-haired trainer’s soft amber hues stared out across the sea of black and dark greens. Two lonesome bodies like small pillars in the distance stood with their shaggy fur and aggressive demeanor. Sharp red eyes with bright yellow conjunctival cells narrowed down suspiciously upon their target. Mishu bit down on her lower lip as she quietly sipped her herbal tea and thought reflectively on the moment. Hints of jasmine infused with strong undertones of orange zest rolled over her tongue and slipped down her throat as she enjoyed her drink. “Suraimu seems to be handling his own just fine out there…at least, for now.” She commented to herself then turned away and walked back to the table to sit down with Mrs. Aberton.
The older lady scratched the back of her head and glanced up to stare apprehensively at her back door. Fear crippled her and bred with anxiety underneath her skin. The older lady’s rougher, wrinkled flesh rose up as a sea of goosebumps ate up her arms and legs. “Huh?” Mrs. Aberton whispered as her skin paled as though she had seen a ghost. She then shook her head firmly before managing to smile up as Mishu. “Oh…those devil dogs all look the same to me.” She finally admitted as the fear swelled up inside of her eyes and seemed to blossom inside of a newfound sense of hatred and disgust. Though, Mishu had to content that this sense of disgust had probably long sense existed and was only becoming worst with their mystery Pokemon’s appearance. “These dogs…they terrorize you often?”
Mishu wanted to focus on the matter at hand with Mrs. Aberton than try to correct her right away. She recalled the times she tried to help people in the past and how that seemed to get her no where fast. Perhaps, if she understood where this was coming from and allowed them to first supply her with information, she could spin the web better to help them see a different picture. And if at the end of the day she could tone down Mrs. Aberton’s level of disgust so that she could understand that they weren’t just evil for existing…Mishu was fully ready to be content with that alone. “They chased and bit my Pokemon and my daughter’s Parasect!” Mrs. Aberton seemed spat angrily as she thought back on the harm that they’ve caused her over the past several weeks. “Plus, they help that beast and together they’ll tear up my garden and eat all my tomatoes!” She huffed angrily.
Mishu listened carefully as Mrs. Aberton explained her dislike of the Poochyena. Poochyena were omnivorous and known to eat anything. They could also be territorial and were known to chase and bite anything within their area. “But…it’s not just the Poochyena, then?” She wanted to be sure she understood what was going on correctly. Mrs. Aberton’s eyes furrowed together as she shook her head and placed her hands against her own table roughly. “No! Poochyena were pretty bad before when they wandered out of the nearby woods but now…it’s like they’re so much worse! I don’t know what’s helpin’ ‘em but I know t’ain’t no dog.” Mrs. Aberton snapped firmly. Mishu nodded her head firmly, not sure whether to believe Mrs. Aberton or to chalk it up to a pack of lost Poochyena that needed to be relocated. “Have you seen this beast helping the Poochyena? I’m just wondering if maybe…it’s chasing them, as well, and displacing them out of their natural home?”
Suraimu raised himself up high once more as he swung around in the air. His opponents seemed to love to howl at him like a rallying cry. The sentient pile of sludge didn’t quite understand it all himself, but he was happy to have friends that would play with him, nonetheless. “You know…that attack felt stronger than before!” Suraimu playfully teased and waved his arms in the air. The iridescent green slime would then sweep his arms out wide at his sides to try and wrap them around the largest Poochyena and attempt to pull it into a tight embrace. “I think all you need is a hug!” Suraimu giggled at the top of his voice joyfully.

Mrs. Aberton pushed herself up onto her feet and walked over to her backdoor. Her soft eyes stared out of the window on her door thoughtfully at the battle between Suraimu and the wild dogs that had invaded her garden. A deep frown furrowed over her lips. Where was that strange Pokemon that loved to come into her yards and wreck her garden? It had already smashed so many of her statues and small figurines. Mrs. Aberton had been working diligently at repairing them, though this strange beast seemed to revel in destroying them whenever she would fix them and place them back outside. “I’ve seen it many times, miss…” She sighed, turning to stare at Mishu with a deep sadness in her eyes. “I can’t explain why it’s not here now…but I know it’s around somewhere…”
Mishu placed a hand in the center of Mrs. Aberton’s back. She noted how the older lady’s body looked tired beyond her years. Was this taking that much out of her to try and keep up with the fight between the wild Pokemon that loved to destroy her land? Mishu’s gaze hardened in deep concentration as she tried to understand words that were left unspoken between them. “I may not know what the beast is…” Mishu said softly, trying to carefully construct her words, “but that’s why I am here. I just want as much information as you can give me so that I can find it. If these dogs aren’t the culprits we’re looking for then…with your permission…I won’t leave or rest until we find it.” She waited for Mrs. Aberton’s reply, hoping she hadn’t ruined the moment with the old lady.
Carissa walked over to her mother and gripped her hand on the other side. She gently placed a hand lovingly on the side of her mother’s face and rubbed it as though she were trying to smooth out the wrinkles on Mrs. Aberton’s cheek. “Mom…” Carissa spoke softly but surely with a shrug in Mishu’s direction. “She’s not going to hurt us. She only want to help. Why don’t you open up more?” Mrs. Aberton turned to her daughter and scrunched up her nose. The looks that they exchanged between mother and child spoke more in a second than the entire conversation Mishu and Mrs. Aberton had shared between each other. The educator waited silently and quietly as she turned away to stare outside of the window. She watched the wild dogs on the sidelines howling before they turned and fled. In return, the new one that appeared growled in gruff undertones, before turning back to the battle to help its friend. “Carissa…sweetie…its not that…its just-“
Carissa raised her hand up to stop her mother as she shook her head. “Just what? Let me guess, it hurts, right? The memories, the conversation…everything? Dad’s gone and he’s never coming back.” Tears welled up in the young adult’s eyes as Carissa spoke with conviction. When she turned to stare out the backdoor window as well, she tightened her jaw with a look of malice disgust. “All we have is what he left us, mom! And if you don’t start helping this nice lady who has come to help…we won’t even have that anymore! Please…mom…PLEASE!” She huffed. While Carissa screamed the last words out, she began to sweep uncontrollably. Mishu turned to embrace her, as well, but Mrs. Aberton moved in the way as she pulled her daughter into her chest to comfort her. “You’re right…” She sighed, shaking her head. “What was that?!”
A loud crash caught Mrs. Aberton and Carissa’s attention. The immediately tossed the backdoor open and rushed past the battle to the left side of the building. Mishu followed quickly after, pausing only to size up the battle between Suraimu and the wild dogs that fought against her Pokemon. “Suraimu please use Sludge Wave and end this as quickly as you can. Sounds like trouble is brewing somewhere else!” She called out to her Pokemon. Suraimu giggled and nodded his head as he began to focus on the new attack. A thick ground of toxic, poisonous sludge bubbled up from underneath the surface of the ground as Suraimu tried to swamp the dogs with the thick sludge. Small waterspouts would shoot the sludge up from the ground in random spurts, though they would be aimed specifically at the two Poochyena before her. “I’m sorry but playtime is over!” Suraimu giggled and waved to the two dogs.
