Shalin was more than good; she was ecstatic to show Ollie what she and her SYGNA SUIT were capable of. She and her Kommo-o steed faced the Captain, the explorer's Flygon flitting well above and creating a pleasant series of tones with her wings. The heat was nowhere as harah as normal, and skies were overcast; was this one of the few times of the year where the desert would get some rain?

"Wonderful, especially now that my Romping Grounds in Petalburg Woods are back to the way they were before the blight happened!" She seemed awfully cheerful for the dangerous task that had been assigned to her: relocating an enormous snake Pokémon that was prowling dangerously close to Lavaridge Town. If it was a certain Elite Ranger assigned to the task, he might have taken the liberty of eliminating it. That wasn't Shalin's forte, neither was it her desire. Enormous predators were a healthy part of Hoenn, but for the sake of nearby cities, they couldn't be allowed to make their territory too close. "Looks like it wants to do something!" she pointed toward the sky, Treble stopping to tilt his eyes upward as well. Her Flygon suit would protect her from any sandstorm, no matter how harsh, just like the Pokémon she took the guise of.

The COILING Sandaconda was positively enormous -- far larger than any she had seen even in the Space-Time Distortions. It was obvious that Poké Balls wouldn't work on it; with how aggressive the Pokémon was, they would have to find a way to incapacitate it. She hoped she wouldn't have to kill such a grand specimen, but when push came to shove, the safety of Rangers came first.

Responding to the HYPER BEAM catapulting a veil of sand into the air, preventing the Sandaconda from crossing toward Lavaridge's gate, it furiously flung its tail at both the dragons in a BRUTAL SWING that rung the ears of those nearby. The sound was of a humming noise that was similar to Treble's, minus the cymbal-like scales banging into one another. It almost sounded like a bug's wings buzzing completely unimpeded. Her skin began to tingle, thinking it was Treble rocking her. It wasn't, though; the scales were completely still.

The BRUTAL SWING nearly hurled Shalin off her mount, though it gave her a glimpse of what was causing the noise. Seeing it was the tail, a reckless idea got into her head. With Ollie's Dragonite likely still hyperventilating from the Hyper Beam that was discharged, she would have to bide her time. "When you can, see if you can draw it toward you! I've got an idea of how I can wear it out without too much harm."

The Tropius' SWEET SCENT served its purpose, the noise Treble made and the aroma drawing the Sandaconda exactly where Shalin wanted. Shalin slid down from her dragon steed as the Kommo-o and Sandaconda bellowed and hissed at one another, the fast snake lunging toward Treble and BULLDOZING over him. It was now or never; Shalin had to make her move. And would it ever be a big one.

Just as the enormous ground-type snake was about to turn around, Shalin reached for the dangerous foe's tail and grabbed onto it. Before she could crawl up to a choke point on it to help take the creature down, it realized the girl's presence and pulsed its back half upward, knocking her back to the very end of the tail.

Right on the Sandaconda's rattle.

Hurling her Flygon's Poké Ball skyward to activate her Sygna Suit, both of them glowed with a faint green light as the girl held onto the ground-type with everything she had. The furious Sandaconda raised its tail a noise sounding like a burning firecracker filling the air as the Captain-elect was chaotically yet rhythmically shaken about. The two glowed a brighter green as the shaking intensified. Furious that it couldn't shake her off, the Sandaconda rattled Shalin faster, a hum coming from its tail the indicator of the kind of speed she was being shaken about at.

Pistachio's THUNDER WAVE did little but corral the suited Elite and wild snake into the same corner of the desert they were already in, thanks in part to its Ground typing. With charging the Dragonite and Ollie no longer being an option, the wild put everything it had into unseating Shalin. The treble of the shaking tail's hiss and the base of its hum harmonized with one another as the rattle and trainer on it turned into a blur.

The girl started hooting and yipping, both her and her Sygna Pokémon glowing a bright green from the discharge of Infinity Energy needed to keep her from being immediately unseated. She let out a shriek as the shaking peaked in frequency, as fast as a Bug Buzzing wing. It was so fast that Shalin's sense of touch was greatly dulled, all four of her limbs tingling as the rattling slowed to a gradual stop. The snake was sweating profusely from desperately trying, and failing, to unseat the Sygna Suited Ranger. As Sandy touched down, even the Flygon looked as worse for wear as Shalin was.

All there was left to do was bring the giant to a Pokémon Center and let ollie morales do as she felt was in the best interest of the Rangers. He was their boss, after all!

The potent and effective LEAF STORM left the ground-type screeching, one last brief, but powerful, surge of vibration rumbling through Shalin. "Yeek!" she cried as another bright green glow surrounded her, a physical manifestation of the Infinity Energy making her physics-breaking feat possible.

"That was... tiring... but... so fun!" Shalin huffed as Ollie made sure she was okay. Even her Flygon was sweating from keeping Shalin on the rattle when it shook and hissed with frightening speed. As the tail fell limp, she fell over in a heap, her jelly legs unable to hold her weight. She turned toward the Sandaconda's now motionless rattle, amazed that it was still intact even after giving the girl the ride of her life. "I... want to... catch one... for myself... now!"
