The Ranger Captain promised to show Michael just what a Sygna Suit could do. So when Shalin Nariya invited him and his Pokemon partners to see her extravagant spectacle, he couldn't say no! The Cadet was more than thrilled to attend the show!

Michael found himself a lovely spot by the park's pond. It was close to the performance area, and Cobalt could enjoy the cool, fresh water. Other onlookers shared the same idea, letting their Water-Type Pokemon have a decent view of the demonstration.

The Cadet and Eimyrja applauded and cheered for their friend as she finished the first half of the entertainment! Cobalt would applaud, too, if only he had fins that could do so. The Seadra did a little dance instead as a display of joy!

This all left Michael to be more curious about Sygna Suits than before. To be so in-sync with one's Pokemon, to perform such amazing feats...Michael had to admit, seeing such a thing in action led him to feeling slightly envious. Maybe, someday, he might find a Sygna Suit in his possession. Though the Cadet reminded himself after a brief tingle of remorse; it didn't matter what fancy suits or gadgets anyone owned, whether they be Dynamax Bands or Mega stones. One's love and respect for their Pokemon would remain just as important and equally special.

Shalin took note of Michael's presence and waved toward him as she waited for sufficient feeling to return to her legs. She flashed a small smile at seeing Cobalt being taken care of so nicely.

Once she could stand on her own again, Shalin withdrew her Venusaur and swapped Pokémon to her Flygon. When she appeared, also glowing a similar green to the Venusaur, her Sygna Suit's appearance changed, flashily morphing from being covered in plants, flowers, and a pair of vines to Flygon-themed dragon scales and a pair of red-tinted shields over her eyes.

As she approached, the Flygon's wings vanished into a blur and hummed in a low pitch for a few seconds. The desert spirit seemed to fly more like an insect than a dragon, which made the Captain's act of sitting on one of the wings even more mind-numbing. The green light around them grew slightly more intense, those in tune with Infinity Energy from having used Mega Evolution more able to feel just how much of the stuff was radiating from the two.

As impressive as her demonstration with Saria was, this seemed esoteric. How was she holding on to something moving so fast?

Amusement pooled inside of Michael as he crossed his arms. He felt a quick sensation of envy in his mind. He was not proud of allowing himself to feel such things, so he swiftly quelled it as soon as it began. The Cadet instead focused on the spectacle, smiling to himself as he observed Shalin's antics.

This time, the Ranger Captain performed her feats with the help of her Flygon. Staying stuck to their now nigh invisible wings was a feat in of itself. It reminded Michael of his first meeting with the Captain on Route 118.

Another round of applause was in order! With a cheer and a broadening grin, Michael offered his appreciation for the show which Shalin and her partners offered the onlookers. Witnessing how in-sync she was with her team helped nudge Michael's opinions of Sygna Suits to grow to be more open-minded.

Shalin wished she could ratchet up her Flygon's wings to a shrill Bug Buzz and show her audience just how fast her suit let her go. She was showered in raucous applause before most of the Rangers present dispersed, leaving Michael Davis as one of the few that remained.

"Oh, Michael!" the Sygna Suited Captain called out, her voice still a little distorted from the wings beating somewhat quickly. Only when they completely slowed, revealing his dizzy-looking friend, could she be easily understood. "Glad you could make it! Sadly that's all I have planned - couldn't secure a noise permit for what I really wanted to do."

Michael's heart sank when the Captain revealed the brevity of her planned events.

"That's all?" he asked, a flavor of disappointment in his words. "That's a bummer."

The Ranger's frown faded away as his lips curled into an understanding smile, which parted to show a gleeful grin.

"Well, that's okay!" he relayed. "That was amazing! But you know that you have to show me what else you can do, right?"

Eimyrja and Cobalt both displayed their enjoyment and excitement with melodic cheers. They, too, couldn't believe the wonders of the Sygna Suit!

It wasn't that Shalin didn't want to perform for Michael. She just couldn't do so within city limits because of how noisy her performance was. "Sandy can actually create sonic booms with her wings. That's how fast they can go," the Captain bragged as the crowd had finished dispersing. "Tell you what - after we do our next ticket together, we can relax at my Romping Grounds in Petalburg Woods. It's where I keep all my Pokémon, and we can be as loud as we want there."

The Flygon, ready for more, lowered her wings to the ground and let Shalin slide off the one she was atop. "Looks like she's willing to give you and your Charmander a turn if you want one," Shalin smiled toward the Cadet. "She'll turn the speed down so it's safe for you, of course!"

The Ranger's eyes lit up in excitement from the mere fact about Flygon and their ability to create sonic booms. Michael observed the Dragon Pokemon, trying to paint a picture in his mind's eye. After inviting him and his team to Petalburg, Shalin even offered to let Michael and the others take a ride for themselves!

"I, uh," Michael stammered, a sheepish grin creeping onto his mouth, "I'm flattered. Thing is...I have this thing about thrill rides? Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a few roller coasters and even log flumes. But I have a, ah...How do I explain this...A fear of nausea?"

The Ranger felt his cheeks heating because of embarrassment. He'd told no one of this particular fear, save his parents. It was what kept him from enjoying the truly wild rides at amusement parks.

"I don't like the idea of being sick enough where I vomit. It's a nasty experience, so I try to avoid it at all costs. But we do appreciate the offer!"

Disappointing, but she had to try.

"It can certainly be a bit daunting," Shalin nodded in understanding of Michael's fears. "After all, you'd be going fast enough to hum!" She wasn't lying, either; with the right technique, the two could harmlessly reach such speeds. It was, of course, a drop in the bucket compared to what she was capable of, but without a suit of his own, she could not share that experience outside the RKS Simulation.

"If it's getting sick you're worried about, I've got all kinds of other Pokémon back home where that wouldn't be an issue, yet are still plenty thrilling," she advertised. "No pressure, of course - just something to consider!" her eyes shifted toward the enthusiastic Emmyrja. "Can't wait to see the little one grow. Anyway, if you feel like taking on a little extra work together, let me know what kind of tickets you find!" Withdrawing her Pokémon other than her Type: Null, the Captain began to head out of the park. "Until then!" The normal-type and exxentric trainer walked toward the park's exit,
