A man carefully walked into an office of the Rocket HQ. He knew it was dangerous to bring bad news. "Boss? We've received a message, after many of our insiders in Oak's expedition have fallen, our ally has been defeated too."
"What?! They beat Giratina? I thought we would be invincible with it as our ally!" He stood up furiously and dropped Persian, which was lying comfortably on his lap, on the floor. "Bloody Oak, he probably thinks he has won, but he'd be surprised. And we're not done yet, we'll be back! He'll pay for this!"
"You'll going to let a package be delivered on his name again?"
"Shut up! ... wait, not even a bad idea. Yes. But we won't leave it at that, we're not an ordinary gang of thieves, we're the Pokémon world's Mafia!"

Please not Self-Destruct, please not Self-Destruct. She took a deep breath... and used Self-Destruct. When the smoke cleared after a big explosion, two victims were seen.
====================
So in the end today was an eventful day, a bad guy down, a potentially bad guy down and an explorer down who's not even sure what's she's doing could potentially be helping the enemy. Rather positive, this might be over soon.
