A Fiery Woman

Whoa! It's a festival!

She's full of energy, considering she just battled Team Flare.

Oh... She did?

Hey. ♪ Tell me, where did you and Looker meet?

How did you end up spending time at the Looker Bureau together?

Well, my friends and I were hanging out in our secret base...

And then Mr. Looker came around and said he wanted me to be his assistant!

And then...

... ... ...

You seem kinda antsy, Calem.

Are you worried about that mysterious Pokémon people are spreading rumors about?

Yeah, I was just wondering if someone might have already found it.

I'm curious as well. We could split up into two groups and...

Whaaat? No way! Let's all go together!

I wanna go together, too!

A-all right... We'll be around till the end.

Mimi would be happy if everyone went together, too!

That's great, Mimi!

Hehe! ♪ You're so in sync with your partner Pokémon!

Partner Pokémon? Me and Mimi?

Oh, are you not? I assumed because you're always together...

Nope! My partner Pokémon is Crobat!

Mimi is my very special friend!

You and Mimi get along very well! ♪

Yeah!

Hm? Where's Looker?

I wonder where he went...

What's going on, "fiery woman"?

You tried to ruin the peace ceremony's commemorative play, of all things?

You even gave me information about it beforehand! What's your motive?

Don't get so angry.

Our boss never gave orders to cause that fuss.

Some of our team members decided to go rogue and caused a ruckus.

We've recently noticed some troublemakers in our organization...

I wanted you to arrest those traitors so we can find out who they are and what their motives might be.

You wanted to use me and the International Police?

If we were to internally investigate who the traitors are, people would start to doubt each other within the organization, right?

If you apprehend the traitors, you get the credit and the troublemakers are eliminated from our organization. That's reasonable, right?

That's not the point!

OK then, I have another piece of information that might fire up your flames of justice.

We know that these traitors are trying to get hold of a secret destructive weapon in Team Flare's possession.

They're trying to steal it, and the blueprints, too.

A destructive weapon?!

We don't know what they plan to do with it.

How could you own such a thing?!

It's like insurance for us, in case something happens.

This way we can always carry out our boss's wishes.

... ... ...

I have no intention of ignoring any danger that could happen on Pasio.

But I also don't plan to help you resolve your own mess!

I will do my own investigation...

Aaaaaaaah!

Wh-who are these people? They're wearing red sunglasses!

Red sunglasses? They must be Team Flare!
