Lord Electrode
The Galaxy Team Survey Corps were busy making balms to help them calm the frenzied Lord Electrode.
"Wish Lincoln was here to help us with this." said Lana.
"Well, you know how he doesn't like to have his Pokemon in their pokeballs." said Luna.
"That's what Irida likes about him." said Lynn with a chuckle.
"Let's just get these balms done." said Luan as she tosses a completed balm into a nearby basket.
Half an hour later, the Galaxy Team Survey Corps finished making enough balms.
"That should be enough." said Luna.
"In that case, let's get started." said Lynn. They grab the basket and walk over to the altar where Melli was waiting for them alongside Adaman.
"You actually came back here?" asked Melli when he sees the group.
"You got a problem with that, chump?" asked Lynn.
"Even though you're doomed to fail, you still wish to pit yourself against Lord Electrode?" asked Melli.
"That's right!" said Luna.
"Heh." Melli replied. "You've a great deal more pluck than you have sense, I'll give you that."
"We'll give you a few bruises and a black eye if you keep disrespecting us." said Lana.
"A word of advice; don't stop moving while battling Electrode, or you'll be dead in no time!" Melli said, making the Loud sisters a little nervous.
"Well, I'm not gonna back down!" said Lynn.
"We're with you, sis." said Luna.
"All the way." said Lana.
The Galaxy Team Survey Corps entered the main part of Moonview Arena and looked around for the Frenzied Lord; as they do, they see a lone tree standing in the middle of the ruins.
"Where is Lord Electrode?" asked Luna. Some rustling in the tree gets the group's attention; several large pokeballs fall out of it to to the ground.
"What are pokeballs doing up in that tree?" asked Leni.
"Maybe someone was here trying to catch Pokemon?" suggested Luan.
"But the Galaxy Team Survey Corps are the only ones that go around doing that." said Lana.
"Guys; why do those pokeballs have eyes?" asked Leni. Everyone else look at the 'pokeballs' and see that they did, in fact, have eyes.
"Those aren't pokeballs." said Luan.
"What are they?" asked Luna.
"I believe they're Pokemon known as Voltorbs." said Lisa. "They are the pre-evolved form of Electrode."
"Well, where's the one that's gone frenzied?" asked Luna. As if powers beyond our comprehension heard her, a massive Pokemon that looked like a Voltorb with the coloring reversed, a mouth, and emitting a golden aura, falls out of the tree and lands within the group of Voltorbs, scattering them around.
"That must be it." said Lana.
"It's big!" said Leni.
"Size doesn't matter." said Lynn.
All of a sudden, large Voltorbs started falling out of nowhere around the area and begin exploding; the shockwaves from the blasts knock the Loud sisters to the ground.
"Whoa!" said Luna.
"That must be why Melli suggested that we kept moving while it's attacking." said Lana.
"We should definitely be careful." said Leni.
"Stop talking and start throwing!" said Lynn as she grabs a couple of balms and chucks them at frenzied Electrode, hitting it.
"Hard to do when we're trying to avoid getting blown to bits!" said Luna as she narrowly avoids another explosion.
"Just keep throwing!" said Lynn.
The Loud sisters did their best to throw balms at Lord Electrode while avoiding the blasts of the exploding Voltorbs; several times it released an orb made of electricity from its body that hits Lynn, giving her a shock that hurt a bit, but wasn't enough to stop her for very long.
"What a 'shocking' development this is." said Luan.
"This isn't the time for puns, Luan!" said Luna as she jumps to the side to avoid another explosion.
"Sorry; but I couldn't resist for some reason!" said Luan as another electric orb hits her.
"How are we able to handle those zaps?" asked Lana.
"We're just very tough!" said Lynn.
"Or maybe we have developed a high tolerance to pain in the times before we lost our memories." suggested Lisa.
"What kind of lives did we have before that could help us take shocks like that?" asked Luna.
"Maybe if we get one of those tablets from this guy, we can get a memory that will help us remember." said Lisa as she tosses another balm at Lord Electrode.
"Less talking, more throwing!" said Lynn. All of a sudden, the frenzied lord begins to gather a massive amount of electricity.
"I don't like the looks of this, dudes." said Luna.
"What's a 'dude'?" asked Luan.
"I don't remember, or why I said that?" asked Luna.
"WATCH OUT!" shouts Lynn; everyone looks as a tremendous lightning bolt hits the ground around Lord Electrode, narrowly missing the Loud sisters, but making them cover their eyes from how bright it was.
"Glad we didn't get hit with that!" said Lana.
"But it appears that using that attack took a lot out of Lord Electrode." said Lisa, making her sisters look to see the frenzied Pokemon seemingly tired.
"Let's take it down!" said Lynn.
"Electrodes are part electricity and part grass types." said Lisa. "The Pokemon that would do significant damage to it would be fire, bug, poison, and ice types."
"I got this!" said Lana as she tosses her Toxicroak's pokeball and releases her. "Toxicroak, use Poison Jab!" One of Toxicroak's wrist spikes glowed purple as she jabs it into the frenzied noble, dealing super effective damage; Lord Electrode hits Toxicroak with a jolt of electricity.
"Don't take that from some overgrown excuse for a pokeball!" said Lynn.
"Toxicroak, use Venoshock!" said Lana. Her Toxicroak releases a large glob of purple liquid that hits the frenzied lord, dealing super effective damage, and stunning it a bit.
"Now's our chance!" said Lynn. "Throw balms like our lives depend it on!"
"Because they might!" said Lana before she and the rest of the Loud sisters hurled as many balms at Lord Electrode as fast as they could. After a minute, Lord Electrode looked close to calming down.
"One more should do it!" said Lynn as she hurls one last balm at the frenzied noble; as soon as it hit, the golden aura started to rise up out of it and fade away.
"We did it!" cheered Leni.
"Are we good or what?" asked Lynn as she rubs one of her knuckles against her chest. Lord Electrode rolls over to them and smiles before spitting out a yellow tablet; Lynn catches it.
"Hey, it's another one of those tablets." said Lana.
"You know what this means." said Lola before she and the rest of her sisters begins grabbing their heads and moaned in pain.
With Lincoln at the campsite, he was on his knees, clutching his head while screaming.
"What's wrong, Lincoln?" asked Akari with concern.
"My sisters must have found another tablet!" exclaimed Lincoln. Suddenly, an image of a teenage boy with curly black hair, wearing a purple jacket over a white shirt, blue pants, and gray and white shoes appeared in his mind.
Back at Jubilife Village, Lori, Lola, and Lily were also crying in pain while clutching their heads; they also saw the image of the boy in their heads.
"I'm guessing our siblings found another tablet!" exclaimed Lori.
"What was your first clue?!" asked Lola as she continued clutching her head.
Back with the Louds sisters, they also saw the image of the boy in their minds.
"Are you guys seeing the boy too?" asked Luan.
"Yeah, I remember him." replied Leni.
"Our cousin, Shane." replied Lucy from behind Leni, scaring her. Seconds later, the headaches went away.
"I hate it when that happens." said Lana.
"At least we got another bit of our memories back." replied Lisa. Lord Electrode then rolls away.
"Bye, Lord Electrode!" Leni calls out to the lord, waving at it.
"Oh, for shame! What utter calamity!" the Loud sisters hear Warden Melli say; they look to see him and Adaman walking over to them.
"Hi, Adaman." said Leni, waving at Adaman; he blushes in response. When Adaman and Melli reaches the girls, Melli drops to his knees.
"I agreed to make those accursed balms, yes." said Melli. "But now that almighty Sinnoh's precious blessing has vanished forever, it's just so unbearably sad!"
"Is that how you see it?" Adaman asked Melli. "Electrode looked relieved to me. Glad its suffering ended, probably."
"Oh, come on, Adaman! Seriously?" exclaimed Warden Melli as he gets back on his feet. "That's just your wishful thinking, nothing more. All your preaching doesn't ruffle me one bit, but if almighty Sinnoh is angry with me because of this, I don't know what I'll do!"
"I arrive, right on schedule." everyone hears Warden Ingo say; they look to see him.
"Hey, Ingo." said Lana; Warden Ingo approaches everyone.
"Now what did YOU bother coming back for?!" Warden Melli asked Warden Ingo.
"Only to say that I recalled some things after the Louds did me the honor of travelling with me." replied Warden Ingo. "Things to do with a world I believe I lived before my memories were lost."
"Like what?" asked Luna.
"Most people there caught Pokemon, lived with them, formed supportive partnerships with them, and then there were the Pokemon trainers." said Warden Ingo. "The ones we called Pokemon trainers were truly devoted to their crafts; they always looked toward the next challenge and had Pokemon battles every chance they got, all to help themselves and their Pokemon grow. Through battle, trainers forged bonds of understanding with their Pokemon, and with their opponents, and their Pokemon too; with everything, I suppose."
"Nice." said Lynn.
"If people and Pokemon work together, we can forge new paths forward." said Warden Ingo. "We'll be lost in history if we go on believing only Pokemon can be strong, or we go on fearing them instead of understanding them."
"We are working on the pokedex so people can understand Pokemon better." said Lisa, holding the pokedex.
"Interesting; was your world like Ingo described too, Leni?" Adaman asked Leni.
"I don't really remember." replied Leni.
"Oh! Once again, the brilliant Warden Melli has realized something rather clever!" said Warden Melli.
"And what's that?" asked Lynn.
"It's not just my Pokemon that need to be strong; it's me as well." said Warden Melli. "The greater my valor and might, the more my Pokemon can reach their potential! I wonder if almight Sinnoh will be pleased once I achieve exactly that?" Warden Melli turned towards Adaman. "Hey, Adaman; share with me again the wisdom of almight Sinnoh passed down among our clan."
"All right, all right." replied Adaman. "Open your ears, shut that big mouth, and listen well, my friend."
"Yeah; shut your mouth or I'll shut it for you." Lynn says to Warden Melli, making him frown.
"Give not into sorrow. Give not into anger. Only offer friendship to those around you." said Adaman. "Give not into sorrow. Give not into anger. Bring not almighty Sinnoh into sorrow. For that is when time's flow will cease. And there you have it." Leni looks dreamily at Adaman.
"Bravo! Excellent!" said Warden Ingo. "Please, all of you, do your best and run toward the destination; an even higher state! Of course, your 'higher state' clear, Louds; it surely lies with the next lord! Now, this time I really will make the complete return trip to Jubilife City; perhaps with someone like the Louds to show Pokemon need not be feared, the people of Hisui will find new tracks forward."
"Perhaps once we complete the pokedex, people will truly understand Pokemon and will not fear them." said Lisa.
"Now, begging your pardon, I owe Commander Kamado my report." said Warden Ingo. "Until next time, everyone." Warden Ingo then walks away.
"Can we find a way to honor our past while also forging a better future?" asked Adaman. "Maybe that's what Almight Sinnoh really wants from us. After all, it rules over all time, and it created everything there is."
"Be sure to shield your eyes, Galaxy grunts." Warden Melli says to the Loud siblings. "I'm going to polish up both myself and Electrode until our strength and brilliance is blinding."
"Yeah, yeah; whatever." said Lynn.
The Loud sibings have quelled Lord Electrode's frenzy and recovered another memory. What else will happen as the Galaxy Team Survey Corps continues? Wait and find out.
