When we head back out, we are greeted by none other than the depressed man, who is also an officer.

"Have I got you to thank for this?"

Peaches sleeps happily in Miracle's arms, "Poor thing must've been scared half to death." He says emotionlessly.

Then he has a staring contest with her until Acerola shows up, "Uncle Nanu!"

Nanu sighs, "Here comes the noise again."

I don't know how, but he said it more monotone than anything else he has said before.

Acerola giggles, "Uncle, you really are a great police officer! Who else would stick around this long to deal with Team Skull's shenanigans?"

Us, apparently.

Nanu shrugs, "The rent's real cheap."

Acerola smiles "C'mon, Miracle! We have to bring Peaches back to Chase."
She waves back at Nanu, "I'll see you soon, Uncle!"

He watches her go, "No one's asking you to."

Jeez man.
You could

Not only did Miracle bring Peaches back, she also brought back Po.
"He can be your Pokémon if you'd like. Although he doesn't talk much."

Chase smiles and hugs the panda-like Pokémon.
Who grunts.

I swear thats all he knows to do.

Our nice little moment is ruined by Hau's unhappy face.

"Hau, what's wrong." Miracle asks, "Where's Lillie?"

Someone comes rushing in, but it's not Lillie.

Instead, it's another flower, "Hey." Zinnia pants, "I think your friend, the blonde one? I think she just got kidnapped by Team Skull."

"What! How do you know that?"
Miracle asks.
"That Guzma guy told me. He said she had a Pokémon they needed, it was something like Cosmog."

Gladion shoves past Zinnia, "Did I hear that right? It was Lillie who took Cosmog?"

Hau looks at him surprised, "You know who Lillie is?"
Gladion glares at us, "You're all so useless and weak!
Cosmog is...
Lillie is....
Ugh! I'll show you how mad you all make me!"

Why!?
It's not our fault!

He sends out his Golbat and Miracle takes a step back, "Hey! It's not my fault! I wasn't even here!"

Tula flies in front of her.

"I don't want to battle you right now."

Gladion is still being angry and edgy, "Well, I'm mad at you! Poison Fang!"

Tula dodges it, "Fine. Psychic!"

Bye-bye Golbat.

Now it's Null vs Rudy

Now that Rudy is a Mudsdale, a kick to the face actually does something.

And a Sneasel that Nightshade melted with Flame burst.

Wasting precious time battling.

"Ugh! How annoying!"

Miracle stops her foot down, "You attacked me!"

Gladion calms himself down, "You're right. I shouldn't have dragged you into a meaningless battle like that. But I told you both! That Cosmog could bring disaster to Alola!"

He takes a deep breath, "We're heading to Ferry Terminal to get it back whether you two like it or not."

Zinnia decides to tag along while we wait for Hau.
