your friend Hugh confronts a Team Plasma member (the same gang who stole his sister’s Pokémon and steals others, intending to rule the world with them). The Team Plasma member bolts off, and you, Hugh, and your other ally Cheret chase after him. He leads you three to an abandoned ship. Upon entry, he stops and there are 12 Team Plasma members total surrounding you. It was a trap he’d just let you three into.
