"Oh my god! I know who you are!" Rex snapped his fingers as they delved into the depths of Sea Mauville. For much of their journey towards the reserve's generators, Rex had been scratching his chin and frowning in an attempt to remember where he had last seen the Ranger beside him. "You're the princess with the funny deer guy!"

What had reminded him, ironically, was a drenched calendar of a Sawsbuck that he had tripped into while trying to figure it out.

He could've just asked, sure, but that wasn't particularly fun. She had a scary vibe, like she could raise a hand and command his execution and it would actually happen. Instead, he had decided to muse in silence.

"Y'know, the whole 'crow-rown' thing? He does a little dance and all that? They were supposed to be freeing a few engineers, but this took up Rex's attention. "He's a silly guy. I saw him in Ever Grande once, y'know?"

While Rex yapped at Elise, he poked his head around a corner to ensure their safety.

41. Secure corners and blind spots to ensure the area is safe to act in.

"You're telling me there're people stuck? In there?"

Rex's eyes were wide as dinner plates as he pointed towards the woman's restroom at the end of the hall. Half-submerged vending machines, old reports, and wet floor signs floated aimlessly in the water as Rex began to shake. Not from fear, but from some other emotion. The bathroom itself was blockaded by a collapsed ceiling.

It was one he could barely place a finger on.

"Caleb, what do we do?" A Magikarp aimlessly flopped in the water by their feet. "This is really bad!"

He shook the older man by the shoulders. His expression was serious, in complete contrast with the utter nonsense that was about to come spilling out of his mouth.

"Neither of us are women!" He hissed at Caleb, before looking around. "We can't go into their restroom! That's disrespectful!"

10. Use tracking skills to locate victims or threats.

Rex peered down a hallway, his eyebrow arched at the obvious gas leak that had knocked out the Pokemon Ranger captain that had been assigned to him and Roze. The captain had been a braggart, but he was also the only person who knew the communication code to contact more rangers. Without him, it was up to the two volunteers to solve this issue.

How did you even deal with a gas leak? Rex was lucky that he didn't smoke, otherwise he and Roze would've likely exploded by now.

"Okay. I have an idea." Rex beamed at Roze as his Munchlax waddled forward. "Don't be mad, but this is totally gonna work. Trust me."

Trusting a random stranger? Bad idea. Still, it couldn't stop Rex from sending his Munchlax into the room with a gas leak. The big luggard waddled forward, inspecting various things before eating a moldy sandwich.

04. Direct a pokemon to scout ahead for reconnaissance.

"I'm telling you, small lady. This place is dangerous. That's why the Pokemon Rangers put out a bunch of posters. We gotta protect the Sealeos!" Rex frowned as he and Eris continued crawling through a ventilation shaft. They had run into several 'NO TRESSPASSING' signs in Sea Mauville. Rather than ignore them, Rex had avoided them entirely.

Hence why they were crawling through a rusty ventilation shaft rather than a perfectly functional door.

"How cool is it that you're a ranger too? You're like, ten!" Rex gushed as he threw his weight against a vent screen. The vent came loose, and the young trainer hopped down. "Like in the movies!"

Now that they were on the other side of the door, the 'NO TRESSPASSING' sign on the door no longer applied. Rex opened it, allowing several Paldean Wooper to scamper out.

When Littleroot had burned a few years ago, Rex had said nothing. When he had started his journey to be the best trainer in the history of ever, he had said nothing. When the Top Champion, the best trainer in the history of ever had died, he had said nothing. He had cried a lot, but ultimately little had been said.

This was different.

A locked door stood before the duo. A sign with the phrase 'KEEP OUT' spoke to Rex's soul. He turned to the woman next to him, eyes wide, much like a student.

"Lady, we gotta go around." He pointed at the sign with all the earnestness of a child. "Sign says we can't go in."

That sign had been there since before Annalise or Rex had been born. It would be there far after they were dead. Still, it was a sign that someone had bothered to put up. Rex opted to obey it as a result.

Even if there was no other way forward.

03. Address environmental hazards.

"Geez." Rex frowned as he peered through the porthole window into what was once a vibrant breakroom. Nothing in Sea Mauville was vibrant anymore, but he could see the faint hints of bright paint peeling on the window before Mauville had discontinued this place and turned into a reserve. "That'll be rough."

Within were a rampaging group of Krabby and Kingler, enraged by the shifting of Sea Mauville as the sea below began to sink and churn.

"We gotta get those Krabby out, Package Girl!" Rex turned to June. "They're in danger! What if they get stuck?"

Water-types getting stuck underwater seemed like a redundancy, but Rex was earnest. Honest. There had been a 'no running' sign in one of the abandoned halls and he had actually stopped running.

"One sec, we're gonna need reinforcements." Rex took a deep breath, before bellowing out in a voice that echoed through the halls. "MUNCHLAX! C'MEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
