The next contender for Captain Dross's attention didn't suffer her ire. Her hand reached out to halt Shoalgun's movements at the sudden appearance of a Minior, the Dewott's sharp fangs hiding beneath trembling whiskers and eyes narrowed in warning.

Interest brightened quicksilver eyes. The Minior's weaving path and the cracks in its space-shaped carapace betrayed a certain weakness - an encounter with another pokemon perhaps?

"Shoalgun." Fangs glinted under the kaleidoscopic shafts of sunlight filtered through the stained glass windows. An AQUA TAIL splintered the Minior's shell, spilling sky blue light onto the ground, quickly eaten up by the flash of a pokeball.

Perched atop the throne, Skyler spun a stolen piece of cutlery in her hand. "I thought this would be more exciting. No wonder kingdoms were always at war." A pause. "I need a mortal enemy."

Whistling distractedly under her breath, Captain Dross made her way to the Safari Zone's exit with an empty safari ball clasped to her belt. Night was falling and she'd spent enough time here; with stars cradled safely within their capsules to add to her collection as was befitting a treasure hunter such as herself, Captain Dross bid adieu to the castle and its grounds.

Or would have, if not for the little pink figure standing between her and the exit. From where she stood, she could see one of the Safari Zone's wardens cheerfully chatting to another, blissfully unaware of the devil that stood in their midst. "Shoalgun, careful. These are fierce fiends."

The Happiny didn't look like a fierce fiend, wobbling towards them with careful, measured steps - as if it would fall at any given moment. Still, Captain Dross didn't give it a second chance, commanding Shoalgun to trip it before a pokeball swept it up.

"If I see one of those again, it'll be too soon..."

And with that, Skyler left the Safari Zone behind.
