Mia wasn't so sure if she was still going on the expedition or not, but to be on the safe side she decided to go buy some items from Chimeco's shop. She had already thought long and hard about the items she was going to buy, one being something she knew would be very important.
Insomniscope x 1
Oran Berry x 3
Reviver Seed x 3
Quick Orb x 1
Big Apple x 2
"That should do it," she meowed after purchasing everything, looking them over.
The insomniscope was mainly for all the dark pokemon she knew they would counter. After all, Darkrai wanted nothing more than to send nightmares out through other pokemon. The Oran Berries and Reviver Seeds were in case if her or her teammates HP went down. Her Quick Orb would help her whole team out so they could all have an even faster speed in battle and her apples were just in case she became hungry. Of course, Miao knew the numerous times she had went hungry when she had still stayed with her family for punishment, and she was sure she could last for a long time without eating. She put the insomniscope on, imagining an enemy in front of her. She unsheathed her claws.
"Whats it to ya?" she hissed, her paws beginning to emit a dark-purple aura, engulfing her claws and growing longer. She had been working hard to learn Shadow Claw and now she was ready. This would help her attack any Psychic and Ghost Pokemon. She jumped into the air, slashing at an imaginary enemy. "Take that!"
She stopped, hearing laughter from behind her. Mia looked to see Lugia had been watching her tiny show. Her paws quickly stopped glowing.
"I see someone is ready," he said.
"I've been ready for the day to get back the Pokemon who played a dirty trick on me," she replied, holding her claws that were now beginning to glow a light purple. "No one messes with a Meowth."
"And what move is that?"
"Night Slash."
"I see you learned moves to help you defeat Ghost and Psychic Pokemon. But what about Dark?"
"Dark can be counter with these moves, I'm sure!"
Mia really didn't want to hear she had learned the wrong moves after all this time. She blinked, understanding that Lugia only wanted to help. He was a Legend after all.
"I'm sorry," she apologized. "I shouldn't have snapped."
"Its fine," he said nodding. "I can see its apart of your personality."
Miao let out a tiny hiss and turned away, walking into the shadows. So what if she had a picky personality, she couldn't help that. She heard Lugia let out a small chuckle and watched him walk away. Her eyes narrowed, focusing on the upcoming expedition. Time was wandering down and she knew they would leave soon. If they were, someone would have to guard that stone, she was sure. She knew if she wasn't chosen to go, she'd guard it with her life. She needed to settle this with that Team Nightshade, now.
Especially that Haunter....Mia looked up at her teammates as they began to gather around. The time was coming and she wasn't sure how much more she could wait.
