[The video feed turns on to show Rika sitting on the beach. Behind her is a sandcastle that her Ninetales and Ampharos are currently playing in, destroying it as they do so. There's also a Dragonair calmly watching them play.]

We made it to Olivine. It took a long time, but we can finally rest. [She looks behind her and giggles at her pokémon.] They look really happy to be here too.

Mii. How many people have been to the beach before coming here? Did you go a lot or only once? ... I remember there being a beach in Cherrygrove as well, so I wonder if some people hadn't ever been to the beach before then.

[She smiles before turning off the feed.]

Keiichi, Satoko, and I are going to go pick up Hanyuu in Mahogany. We will be leaving early tomorrow morning. Please have fun while we're gone. Nipaa✰

Aha... I know you will be!

And, um... Be careful in Mahogany, all right? I'm sure Keiichi-san will keep his guard up, but it's still... well, Rocket territory.

There's nothing to worry about. My pokémon are pretty strong.

--ah! I-I know, but it's just... Well, they're a criminal group, and they attack trainers, not just Pokemon, so... Just be extra careful when you're picking up your friend, okay?

Alright. If they try anything I will scare them off. However, if they do manage to attack me, I'll make sure to let you know.

Erk... I-I'd prefer it if you didn't have to let me know, since I would just feel terrible about being so far away... But if it does happen, I'll send back-up!

Mii... but wouldn't you feel worse if you found out that something did happen and I didn't tell you about it?
