The sound of air sacs squealing against the pavement like rubber echoed loudly, even catching the attention of drivers on the main highway. If the Cyclizar were vehicles instead of Pokémon, their engines would be roaring like race cars at the speed the three were clocking. "After them, Goroh! Use QUICK ATTACK!" Josh commanded.

Goroh, though, found himself unable to execute the QUICK ATTACK; after Pico and Jody zoomed ahead of them, Raju may have been able to hear a second round of screeching. Were they to turn around, they would have seen Goroh and Josh erratically flying back and forth across the road, clearly trying to fight the dragon-type's perpetual confusion.

It took him a while to catch up to Raju, but he eventually did well after the speed boost wore off. Mastema kept a dose of LIFE DEW ready in case of disaster, though ultimately the Gym Leader's riding skills kept the restorative move from being necessary. Mauville was just over the horizon. "Thanks for the company, Raju," Josh said with a nod as the dragons began to slow down before merging onto the main thoroughfare leading back into Mauville.
