Bittersweet Satisfaction
Kind of surprised flannery's not appearing since you would think Gym leaders would help resolve issues in their cities (like Burgh did with the venipedes) but then again this isn't as big of a crisis either.
This series honestly has had plenty of chances when it could use more recognizable game characters for a lot of the plot to really capitalize on the region hopping aspect, but it seems insistent of just using random cotds.
