Battle against Evil

Heh. It's over now.

I must say, I'm impressed. It took much longer than anticipated to wear you down.

Even in that form, Hoopa performed beyond my expectations.

It uses its ability to warp space and call humans and Pokémon to a place of its liking...

How very useful for my schemes.

H-Hoopa!

We did it, boss! Pasio has finally fallen into the hands of Team Rocket!

I wonder... Just because we've taken down its owner doesn't mean the job is complete.

There are still many sync pairs on Pasio with hope in their eyes.

Like those two.

Well, well. You've finally made it this far.

You must be extremely talented sync pairs.

I'll take care of that executive, Silver. So you...

Yeah, I know.

Hey, you! I'll take you on!

I'll make sure you're punished for what you've done... Just like that time at the radio tower!

*sigh* Even at a time like this, you still insist on taking the high road and having a one-on-one battle with me?

You obviously have no idea who you're dealing with.

Silver...don't forget.

We may all be fighting our own battles...

but our hearts will always be together! Don't worry, we can win!

How childish.

What?

You still insist on battling on your own, in a situation like this?

I'll never be like you. I'll surpass you!

Fine. Then I'll take you on.

I'll teach you a lesson about just how cruel the world can be. That's my job, as an adult.

Game over.

I...I'm so sorry, boss...

Hmph. How pathetic.

In the end, you had to rely on your little friend to save you. You can't do anything on your own.

... ... ...

Sorry, Silver... I really was gonna stand back, but...

We also have to make sure we win, for the people of Pasio...

Thanks, Ethan.

I would've lost if you weren't here. Same goes for everyone else.

Without you all, I couldn't have gotten this far.

That's the truth, and I have to accept that as the limit of what I can do.

Tch. I hate being weak.

Silver...

Oh?

You're right. As I am now, I still can't beat you on my own.

But we can't afford to lose, because the people of Pasio need us to win.

So really, this isn't just my battle...

This is a battle to take down Team Rocket once and for all!

I'm only letting this happen once. Next time, I'll definitely beat you on my own!

Your eyes finally have the look of an adult.

Let's do this, Ethan. The two of us can take him down!

Yeah! There's no way we'll lose if we're together!

Well, then. Perhaps I should get a little more serious about this, too.

Witness this power! It is the power I possess as the leader of Team Rocket!
