Ancient Tusks and Future Steel

Phew... Managed to catch 'em somehow.

These Paradox Pokémon were super tough!

Most impressive, you two. I knew requesting your assistance was the right decision.

Catching unknown Pokémon so effortlessly is no easy feat.

Gotta say, La Primera, it was actually pretty tiring.

Anyway...

Pasio is such a bizarre place, Paradox Pokémon suddenly showin' up like this.

Yes. This island is teeming with mysteries... as are Paradox Pokémon.

Rika, Poppy... I have a proposal for you.

How would you like to make these two your partner Pokémon?

Huh?

You'd be OK with that?

There's still so much we don't know about them. Wouldn't it be better to hand 'em off to researchers?

No... That's precisely why I'd like to leave them with you.

I've already entrusted Paradox Pokémon to a number of talented Trainers on Pasio...

And I'm told that their role in sync pairs is advancing research about their ecology.

In light of this...

Seeing as you tamed them, I've decided I can safely entrust them to you two.

How does that sound?

In that case, sure!

I was wantin' to see how powerful this Great Tusk really is anyway.

Yaaay! I'm happy I get to be with Treadsy!

Let's do our best together!

I'm glad. I suspect you will be splendid partners.

Be the light that guides Paradox Pokémon, Trainers.
